Contacts with new Contact format when added and saved as new do save under contacts to hotmail, but are present in the contacts list. How can this be corrected.

In using the new contact listing, I hit new to add in a new contact.  I put in the appropriate information with the email address and hit save.  It saves it as a new contact or in the contact list there.  When I go back to hotmail and hit on new to sent an email the person is not showing there under my contacts in the drop down to click on and send an email to that person.  How can this be fixed.  I did not have any issues with the old system which worked wonderful, but this new system is very slow, archaic and not user friendly at all.
