Can’t access hotmail – syncing problem

I cannot access my windowslive email account on any of my devices. My iphone and ipad say "Cannot get mail", and when I go to log on to my mac browser, it says "You might have issues syncing email with your mobile device". From there I clicked "track server status" but it just came up with a blank screen. Any advice as to how to get by mail back would be greatly appreciated as I urgently need to be able to send and retrieve emails, thanks.
