Can send via e-mail Wndows Mail(Vista 64-bit) but can not receive & when I close the WM I get the window that says to compact messages.

I am able to send email in Windows Mail but cannot receive e-mail.  When I click on receive all messages, it stops just downlod.  OS is Vista Home Premium.  I just defragged, did it he ruin?

Make sure that your antivirus software is not interfering.  That's the problem most often met with this kind of problems.  Check first via webmail, if you have access and see if the account is good working there.  If so, then check out www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 and try to remove your email account, closing and reopening WinMail and then add your account back once again and then see if it works very well.

  • Can someone help me to close the window does not respond?

    Original title: Window does not close

    A twitter log in window, on which none of the buttons or links is active, will not close. I first tried the 'show desktop' button in the systray, but it has no effect. Then I opened the Task Manager, but it does show some programs either running or not responding. Thirdly I tried to restart my computer, but the frozen window back each time to start my computer. Can someone help me to close this window permanently does not?

    I kept thinking on problem window disappears in safe mode. It seemed to me that maybe I could just replace the bureau. I selected Control Panel/customization/Desktop Background and select a light blue color. The window of the problem magically disappears. Do you think it is gone for good, or he'll be back? For now, you must mark this message as the answer, because I'm not able to mark it.

  • I can not connect to firefox sync, the window does not

    I just do a fresh install of Linux Mint cinnamon 14 that comes with Firefox 17.0.1. When I try to set up sync, I can't go past the screen 'Pair device', even if the other device confirms that the code is correct. If I click on 'I don't have the camera with me', I am able to get into my account and password recovery key, but when I click on the 'next' button, nothing happens.

    I started Firefox in a terminal using 'firefox Pei' and created a new profile. This solves the problem.

  • Can not stop iCloud Install at the Windows prompt in iTunes

    I get this prompt in iTunes for Windows (twice in an hour now) asking me to "Install iCloud for Windows?" with a button "ICloud download for Windows...» "and a button"Remind Me later "; the only other button is the red X button in the upper right, which I already clicked before. I'm just trying to sync my library.

    How can I stop this? I don't need 'Photo Stream' on my PC... It's too intrusive and disrespectful of Apple to ask me about it with no option of disengagement. Apple has not generally been seller insisting with their products, and it makes me less confident of them.

    What you might try is to go and install iCloud on your PC.  Then disconnect from iCloud, and uninstall it according to the bottom of this link:

The same also occurs whenever I close the last of a certain number of websites I have already opened. Previously, I could close the last site looked and the process did not close down Firefox, simply gave me my home page.
