How to configure groups of Windows 8 email contacts?

I tried to set up a group of Contacts from Windows 8 tiles. It is impossible.  I can only add new contacts. Management does not exist. The only way is going to Outlook.com and do this, but then the group do not synchronize with the email client and so I am unable to send emails with it. I can only use groups through Outlook.com! Not impressed. Any suggestions?

Thank you

The Mail in Windows 8 app uses the people for the contacts app. the people app does not support groups at this time.

However, you are not restricted to use: you can always download and install one of the free e-mail clients that work fine in Windows 8.

Here are two - which address books use groups...

Windows Live Mail

Mozilla Thunderbird

    It seems that it works if you are wanting to have more than one 'account '.

    HOWEVER, I wanted to add a 4th e-mail address 3 I already had and worked very well. That of what I did and voila! It worked. It is the path: Tools-> Options-> Security-> passwords-> Saved going on-> show passwords go there and keep it open while you
    try to send an email from your new address. A message appears saying that password has failed, I had to insert a password. While information appears automatically in the list on the chart you have open. Of course you need to add this new email address to your list first.

    Hi PFollansbee,

    It seems that the file association to open the images has been changed on your computer. I suggest you to set as default Photo Viewer to access photos on your computer and check if that helps you solve the problem.

    Try the steps below; It could help us solve the problem.

    1. open default programs by clicking the Start button.

    2. click on Control Panel, and then click default programs.

    3. set your default programs. This option allows to choose the programs that Windows uses by default.

    4. Select Windows Photo Viewer in the list and click Set this program as default.

    5. try to access photo and check if it opens with the Windows Photo Viewer.

  • How to remove Facebook from Windows Live Mail contacts

    I know that I tried this issue before and tried every obvious answer which is suggested, you name it I tried it. I also looked at the answers of moderators to others, and none of them suggests anything that I have not tried. I truly believe that the only people who could answer this question is Microsoft, but they want you to pay for them to solve what is their fault. Anyone can confirm I'm fair around Microsoft (bastards of moneygrabbing, is Bill Gates until its last billion) or can someone give me an answer that really works. If you can, I'm sure you'd be the answer to the prayers of all those hundreds of people having the same problem.

    What obvious answers? Tried what? Answers to all the moderators? We have no idea what you have done other than a useless mouth. What a waste of prayers when there are more important things in life.

  • How to configure the Windows XP firewall to allow access for Windows 7

    I have 2 Windows 7 PCs & 1 Windows XP.

    XP, I can connect & see the shared folders on the 7.  However, I don't see the XP from 7 if I disable my firewall.

    They are all connected to the same workgroup.  I removed the 7 s residential groups (that I read that this could be a problem).  I tried to turn it off simple sharing & ensuring that local settings are set to everyone, but it does not work.

    I use of Avira AntiVir to my antivirus and I see all the settings within what I need to change.

    The only thing that works is to disable the firewall.  I don't want to leave it off, I need to understand how to configure it to allow access from other computers.  I looked in exceptions and can't seem to understand.  I think maybe I need to add a port, but I do not know how to select a port number and once I did, I don't know what I would have to do on the 7 to use this port.

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    It is not a good idea to post the addresses of e-mail of the link of the data for personal identification in public forums like this.

    If you have an e-mail address (what you do since you posted here - it's your Windows Live ID - and it is your gmail address), contact your e-mail provider or visit their web site.  They will have instructions for setting up Windows Mail to access your mailbox on their server.  For example, here are the instructions for your gmail account: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=86383
