Don't answer until you ask the question to the forum of Hotmail.
For me, it's a scam.
But, you should make sure the Hormail forum moderators.

Hello. I want to change my country of the Jamaica, to the United States but the United States offers none as payment option. I just want to try the new Pokémon go app that is not available in Jamaica. Help, please
Unless you are in the USA, expect it to be available in Jamaica. People can not download content from iTunes Store from another country; This is why it is not an option for you.

50 Firefox wants to install a "new support tool", what is it?
I downloaded Firefox 50 via the built in update. When I type restart to install the update, I get a window saying that Firefox wants to install a "new tool of assistance" and that I need to enter an admin password to complete the update. I can't find anything on this "support tool" in the notes version or via a google search. I was just wondering what is it? 10.11.16 running OSX. Thank you.

I recently updated my home information, but my old secondary e-mail address to use for password reset confirmation is no longer active. I said it's "lost" (only option provided for me) but Hotmail now lists my another new address but it showing pending confirmation by e-mail. I came across the same problem when I tried to have my PC listed as "Trusted PC"... Hotmail wanted to send confirmation to my former secondary e-mail before you "trust" to my new PC.

Cannot send new email to Hotmail Inbox.
A new version of Homail was installed by Windows. Since then, I can't send a new email, or respond to an e-mail from old, my Inbox. Hotmail freezes, then he says he is trying to reinstall a tab for Internet Explorer, and then he threw me on Hotmail. This always happens on my PC, but on my friends PC, I can always send new email and reply to e-mail. What gives?

Why mozilla firefox options synchronization replaces all the new password old password?
When I sign in account twitter, linkedin, facebook and yahoo all sites informs me that you used your old password? I have change my password all the old almost 5 months before and after 5 months I used Firefox sync my new bookmarks update option, new name of connection sites and new passwords as well, but after that the sync option used, my new password replaced with the old password
Maybe the 5 month period when this laptop principal was not connected to the Sync had a role to play in your problem. Sync is designed to synchronize Firefox data permanently, not to be started when you want to "data backup", as with a Cloud Computing service. And the password / feature connections has been changed just about this time, I remember well, then maybe who had a role to play in this last issue.
1. my advice is to unplug all devices sync. 2. then, using computer laptop main with your latest data, reset your synchronization password. Will erase your data from the server, so you can get a fresh load of data to synchronize, and then to other devices when you connect again with the new password. 3 reconnect the computer main sync using the new password. 4. the next day reconnect another device using the new password. Check that connections data is now suitable for this device. 5. If it looks good, plug other devices one by one at a time by using the new password. And if you are using a "mobile version" of Firefox [Firefox for Android or Firefox for iOS] I would wait a few days to make sure that your data on the desktop / computer portable devices is good before you plug one of these devices.

Not to recognize the new or old password and cannot connect to the e-mail
I replaced the old password used to connect to e-mail to [email protected] last night (Monday, 3 August 14). I went to connect to email this morning and it wouldn't recognize new or old password. It kept giving me an error message that pop.server has not identified any username and/or password and access is denied. Use your tools section reset password and it is not always grateful. (And for some strange reason, I deleted Portal Manager password which showed passwords for this system. Any help to get into the system and correct my incompetence will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Karen /barbee
last time I saw it was something "password vault" as a result of internet security that kept the old password substitution because he knew better. You have such a thing in your internet security suite

I had the same version of firefox. but after the addition of Messenger from yahoo to my computer, it adds a toolbar in my firefox and I was unable to remove it even after all I've done. now, I've had the same firefox and I want very barely all my lost passwords. is it possible for her? (I had a master password and I remember)
Did you remove your personal data when you have already uninstalled Firefox?
If you did with your personal data, including the saved passwords for your Firefox profile folder has been deleted.
If you kept your details then Firefox should have picked up this profile automatically.See also:

I could not make a backup encrypted today, because I don't remember my old password. There is no option to use a new password or reset a password if you forgot it. Have you had the same problem?

No I don't have this problem.
If you do not know your iTunes backup encryption, then you won't be able to use it.

Back up your library, update if necessary iTunes and sync the iPod. This will not normally remove anything from the iTunes library, but other things can.

I want to put the new directors under XP password
I received a tour of desktop Acer Veriton practical repair and update work on a tower. I want to upgrade memory RAM, add the improved memory and larger hard and change Windows XP to Windows 7. Also, I need to add new changing LAN network connection to WAN wireless.
I have a users account password and have begun my changes by trying to add a connection to network for E-mail and Web connections. The system tells me that I need a password for the administration to start this change. What are my options? Would be willing to wipe the hard drive and start with the addition of windows 7. Is this a realistic solution because I understand that that would set a new password admin for windows 7?
Concerning
Mike
Hello
Thanks for posting the question. I've surely you will help find a solution on the issue.
1 are logged as an administrator to change settings?
2. you try to create a new network connection in Windows XP?
I suggest you log in under the administrator account to change settings. You will not be able to perform the settings and changes by using the standard user account. Therefore, you can contact system administrator for the password, and then make the changes.
Note: To define a new administrator password. You must have the former administrator with you password.
If you need perform an installation upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7. You can perform a custom installation using the Windows installation DVD. You can also set a new password of administrator for the account.
