    110 views Unable to create new calendar event in Windows Live Mail 2012.
    Aussie1855 asked on
    I am currently using Windows Live Essentials 2012 - Live Mail. and have been doing so for about a year. Now when ever I try to create a new calendar event it will not let me do so and reports that Live Mail is having a problem reading the message. I find this very strange as all message have been read, deleted or junked and I am trying to use the calendar not the mail section.
    Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem.
    Would also just like to state that Live Mail 2010 was the greatest mail program ever - it was stupid to have made any changes to it.
    Regards
    Michael

        I am having this problem as well, Error message says.
        "A problem has occurred while trying to open message.
        A problem has occurred. Please try again."
        I have uninstalled windows live twice, downloaded again the re-installed to make sure there was not a corrupt file - Still no good.
