• Problem with Microsoft account won't let me sync between desktop PC and laptop (Windows 8) custom settings

  Hello
   
  Synchronization of the custom (for example, my desktop background) settings does not work between my desktop PC and my laptop and vice versa (both running Windows 8). I use my Microsoft account (so no premises) on both devices and have already checked the relevant synchronization (which are lit) settings. In addition, I used the "microsoftaccounts.diagcab", however unsuccessfully fix tool:
   
  Troubleshooting completed, problems found:
  • Problem with the Microsoft account strategy: don't not fixed
  • Some settings have disabled sync: detected (which is false)
  • Customization have disabled synchronization (which is false)
  • You have reached the daily quota of the synchronization. The quota of synchronization fade gradually. Please try again later.
   
  However, as a matter of fact sync was working, after I had created and used a new account from Microsoft on both devices. so I suspect something to be a problem with my original Microsoft account. Could you please check this account on your site and let me know your results?
   
  PS My original Microsoft account (that I created there) is the same account that I used to connect to this forum. If you need more information, please let me know!
   
  Thanks in advance!
   
  Kind regards
  Victor Alberts.

  It worked perfectly for me:

  Follow these steps:

  1. Make sure that the synchronization of personal settings is enabled on all the PC associated with your account
  2. Go here and follow the instructions: http://skydrive.live.com/win8personalsettingsprivacy
  3. Wait a day or two
  4. Do this it fixes going in charms bar and selecting settings-> change PC settings.  On the accounts section, there is a link under your Microsoft e-mail account called 'Disconnect '.  If you click on it and follow the instructions create you a local computer account and then log off from Windows.  Once you connect with your local account, go back to the account settings and reconnect to your account.

  Solved all my problems of synchronization.

  I hope this helps for you also!

• A little sleepy Internet - cannot connect to Skype by using my Microsoft account

  Hello

  Since this morning, when trying to connect to Skype by using my Microsoft account, I got a message that the Internet is a little sleepy and I have to try again later. It's using the desktop on Windows 8.1 version. However, I can use my Skype ID and I am able to use the account of MS on Skype on Android. I could also open a session using the Win 8 application using my account, Ms.

  I tried the option to completely uninstall Skype (including enforcement Win 8) as suggested elsewhere on the forums of discussion, but the problem persists.

  It's incredibly frustrating!

  Please give me an alternative or tips on how to get rid of this problem.

  Thank you

  I discovered the problem. For one reason or another in my LAN in Internet Explorer settings, I had ' configuration script automatically use "checked with a value for the script. Have no idea how it got there, but he stopped at IE to connect to the internet, but also this problem with Skype. I almost never use IE, I tend to use Firefox or Chrome.

  A little worrying that it unknowingly.

• Why should I use a microsoft account to use other applications like Skype on Win8? I don't want that, and I don't want to not someone who wants me including microsoft!

  I want to close all my accounts MS after that got myself trapped in windows 8. Can someone tell me how I can do this. I really get tired of windows 8

  Hi Birol,

  Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you with this problem.

  As described in the question, you want to know why you need a Microsoft Account to use Skype and other applications. You want to close your Microsoft Account.

  I wish to inform you that you need a Microsoft Account to make purchases from the store Windows. Your Microsoft account is the combination of an email address and a password that you can also use to connect to services such as Hotmail, Messenger, SkyDrive, Windows Phone, Xbox LIVE and Outlook.com.

  You can connect to Skype using Skype or Microsoft Account account. It is not mandatory to have a Microsoft Account to access Skype. Download the desktop version of Skype App and use the Skye account to access.

  You can connect to Windows 8 by using the Local account Microsoft account. If you connect to Windows 8 using local accounts you cannot access some of the features of Windows 8.

  Apart from this, there are a lot of Apps through which you can be in contact with other people. You need Microsoft Account to access the apps like Messenger, calendar, people App or Windows store.

  I would ask write you to with the description of the problem you're having with Windows 8, so that we can help you to solve. If you want to close your Microsoft Account you can see the link here.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/account-close-account

  Note: If you have a Hotmail Plus, Xbox Live or another subscription, cancel this subscription before you close your Microsoft account. If you manage on behalf of Microsoft for the child, the child Microsoft account permissions will be revoked if you close your Microsoft account.

• "Update info" link does not work in Windows 8 by using the Microsoft account

  I have Windows 8 Pro. I had signed with my Microsoft account.

  Recently, I ran into problems of synchronization and so had to sign out and sign in my account from Microsoft on my PC in Windows 8.
  I have 2 steps check activate my Microsoft account and authenticate using the authenticator application for Windows Phone 8.
  I signed on the Microsoft account on my PC after switching to a local account and on the Microsoft account. I used normal password (not the app since it does not accept it). Successfully signed in, she says that the parameters can not be synchronized until I've "update info" in my Microsoft account. I know it asks me the passcode generated by the application, but the link is dead. Here is the screenshot of the link.
  
  How can I make it work?
  Reset my PC isn't an option. I can't afford to lose everything I have in there. In addition, a system at this stage image backup is useless for obvious reasons.

  Hi Ram,

  As the link update security information is dead, you can connect to the Microsoft account directly and update security information.

• Tablet Lenovo suddenly will not activate windows or accept a microsoft account that has been registered in.

  I'm having a hard time to get back to a windows device.  I have a Lenovo tablet which has a Windows8 full version on it.  I have not used in a few months and went to use it the other day.  It does not connect to my account a single drive then it does not recognize the microsoft account which was signed in, and then it would not turn on the windows account.  I restored and still will not activate.  I can't get any phone support which is very frustrating.  Please help me understand what is happening.  It worked months ago but now I want to upgrade to 10 and use it, but it's useless if she won't turn on.

  You can check the product key Windows 8 embedded by installing and running ProduKey.  It will be displayed as a key OEM BIOS which can be separated from the default key of Windows 8 as shown.

  When you know for sure this key exists, you can Install Clean Windows 10 Upgrade skip the product key during the installation, and then activate directly with windows 8 product key embedded as explained in the FAQ 1511 Version activation in Windows 10 .

  This will be a facility infinitely better and save a lot of time struggling with the activation of Windows 8, then move again to Windows 8.1 in order to lower quality 10 Windows upgrade.

• Why should I use my Microsoft Account for everything I do?

  I just got a new laptop with Windows 8, it seems that everything I have done requires the activation of my account. I want to use Skype, I have to link it with my Microsoft account. I want to check my email, I link to my Microsoft account. I want to download a free app, I sign in with my Microsoft account.

  There is clearly no reason most of what a desire to datamine Microsoft and monopolize my computer activity. If you want to datamine it is one thing, but it is not a valid reason to inhibit the functionality of my laptop or the OS unless I connect using an entirely artificial account that is only used for data mining and I never used to need my Microsoft.
  Why should I have to validate my computer actions with my Microsoft account? What justification Microsoft gives to warn me using programs and applications preinstalled and free unless I have connect to my Microsoft account?

  Hello

  As well as the wonderful information provided by Khaled-Arya, please take a look at the following link:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/user-accounts-FAQ#1TC=Windows-8

  You can choose one of the following two ways to connect:

  • With a Microsoft (an e-mail address and password) account. Signature with an e-mail address and password allows you to use your favorite applications and your unique settings and preferences on any PC.

  • With a local account. Signature with a local account (with or without password) allows you to use the files, settings, and applications on your local computer only.

• Sign in to Skype without using a microsoft account

  I seconded on behalf of Microsoft, but there doesn't seem to be an option to SAVE the setting. So, whenever I'm back in Skype via the Microsoft account. What I did is to get a new laptop. I won't connect to Skype via Microsoft account because my account Skype has my contacts, etc., and also when someone calls me the Skype account with Microsoft is not ringing or connect, it goes to my phone.

  Hi KW15,.

  Have you tried to link your Skype account with your Microsoft account?

  1. Connecting to your Skype on web browser using your existing Skype account which has all your contacts
  2. Go to my account > settings and preferences > account settings
  3. Link to the Skype account that has all your contacts with your Microsoft Account

• Can't log into Windows 8 through my Microsoft account

  Friends,

  I had Windows 8.1 (which worked great for a long time) but for some reason, I had to format my drive C. I had to install my Windows 8 original on it. I created a local account first, but then as I tried to go to my Microsoft account, I get a message to the end - "sorry we can not connect to the Microsoft services at the moment. If the problem persists, look for 'referee' on the start screen. I tried several times and each time, it shows this message. I tried refreshing my laptop suspecting a faulty installation. I still get the same problem. I can not yet move to 8.1. Please help me with this problem. Thank you!

  I have a Dell Inspiron N4010. 64 bit. 3 GB of RAM. processor i3

  It is best to install all the necessary updates first (since it is the new facility) and then try to move on Microsoft Account.

  Are you able to login with the same account user browser? (e.g. Outlook.com)

  Check your date and time system and make sure they are accurate.
