I'm having a problem with my Windows Mail and is woundering if I download the new Windows Live Mail if it can help and it's a better program.

  • While online with Office Live Mail, how can I set homepage Skydrive?

    I use Office Live Mail as my email.  However, I felt it necessary to close and open up Hotmail to access Skydrive.

    SkyDrive is just like any other website. Bookmark http://sdrv.ms for one-click access. If you're already signed in, you arrive directly to your files.

  • fonts in different fonts in Live View and preview of the browser Design view

    My external style sheet has the body defined for a sans serif font and there is nothing to contradict in HTML documents. But while I get sans serif in Design mode (as you know), I get a font serif in Live View and browser preview, not to mention on the Web itself.

    How is this possible (and what I would do to this topic)?

    -Paul

    The problem is in default.css. You have this:

    font: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
    

    The shorthand font property requires a font size. It cannot be only the definitions of the family of police. Change to this:

    font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;

  • Windows live mail and categories

    The biggest problem I see with Win Live Mail is keep my personal and business accounts separate. I prefer Outlook Express where I could change my identity and see books addresses and e-mails only relating to a specific account. I always forget to toggle the account to the account you want when using Live Mail currently.

    I figured how to import my old groups (now called categories) for my company in Contacts. I would like to consolidate all of these groups under another group or folder, so I can the Business name, so when I need access to business e-mail addresses, I can open this folder or a group, and then select a group within this group/folder to send the email too. I use these groups to send a monthly email. I want to assure you that I have split up the business of personal email email, each group in my company address book contains 30 addresses and I have many groups.

    How can I move the existing groups to another group (Category) Name or a folder, so I can keep them in a field then the life is easy? If I can't do that, Im afraid I have to find another application of messaging because it's a deal breaker. In addition, the fact that separate identities no longer exists (the life was easier with Outlook Express). If I can't do what I want, someone has suggestions on what mail app would be good for me? (a free one would be better that I buy something).

    Summary: Currently I have several categories which are called Group1, group2, etc.. I would like to have a category or a folder called Business with all the categories in. The parent would be called Business and children Group1, group2, etc.

    Thank you!

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 is not saving sent Messages - 8 victory

    Recently my laptop was stolen and had to get a new.

    Fortunately, I had everything backed up with mypcbackup.com, so not too lost.  However, I have major issues with Win Live Mail.

    1. saved messages are not saving to sent mail.  The boxes are checked.  I checked that "show all messages" is the parameter.  I tried to change the folder to mail to a new charge storage and empty one.  Nothing works.  Someone said that the parameters of time and the region can effect.  Mine are set for time and my correct location even though when I bought the laptop, it has been the standard we TZ rather than my local Malaysia.  This cause a problem?

    It is to save the gmail and hotmail sends properly.  Just having problems with my computer and business correspondence which are not mainstream, but have been well until the new laptop to work and win 8.

    2 I had restored my backup of emails in mail storage folder, but none of them are picked up by Win Live Mail.  This is very important because it's the last 4 years of work e-mails.

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help solve these issues.

    Hi Mattkerr,

    I suggest you to uncheck the option to save the messages in the sent items folder. Restart Windows Live Mail, and then check the new option, clickapply , and then click OK.

    Also try to rebuild the Windows Live Mail folder and check if this solves the problem.

    Step 1: Rename the Windows Mail folder and create a new folder

    a. exit Windows Live Mail.

    b. find the folder of Windows Live Mail .

    It is usually located in:

    C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\

    c. right click on the Windows Live Mail folder and then click Rename.

    d. Add old at the end of the name of the folder so that the folder is now named Windows Live Mail.old.

    Step 2: Create a new Windows Live Mail folder and copy the contents of the previous folder.

    a. start Windows Live Mail so that it can automatically create the new Windows Live Mail folder, and then quit Windows Live Mail.

    b. find the new Windows Live Mail folder to confirm that his creation.

    It is usually located in:

    C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\

    Note If the new Windows Live Mail folder is compressed, you must unzip this file. To decompress, right click on the Windows Live Mail folder, and then select extract.

    c. open the Windows Mailold live folder.

    d. open the Local folder and copy theaccount {xxxxxxxxxxxxx} .oeaccount . Notice thatxxxxxxxxxxxxx represents numbers or letters.

    e. Paste the file in the Local folder in the new Windows Mail folder (that was created in step 1 of this procedure).

    f. If the following folders are present in the Windows Live Mail.old folder, copy each folder and paste it into the new Windows Mail folder.

    o stationery

    Microsoft o community

    g. close all folders.

    Step 3: Import messages in Windows Mail

    a. start Windows Mail.

    b. import the messages into the previous Windows Mail folder to the new folder. To import the messages, follow these steps.

    i. click file, point to importand then click Message.

    II. click Windows Live Mail in Select a programand then click Next.

    III. click Browse, select the Windows Live Mail.oldlocation and then click Next.

    IV. click all folders inSelect the folderand then click Next.

    v. click Complete, and then the messages will be imported in file imported.

    c. place the messages that have been imported into any folder to the folder appropriate under the Local folder. For example, move messages in the Inbox under the imported folder folder to the folder Inbox under Local folder.

    d. check if blocked messages are deleted. If this is not the case, try to send or delete messages.

    If the problem still persists, then I suggest you to post the same question in the Windows Live Mail forum for more help on this issue.

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

     

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Data recovery:

    1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

    2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

    3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

    http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

    Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

    Download the Vista software from the link above.

    After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

    Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

    Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1st in the boot order.

    Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

    When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

    Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

    Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

    Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

    See you soon.

  • PS elements 12.0 is compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail?

    Is that what the party organize/E-mail of 12.0 compatible with my Windows 7 and Windows Live Mail items?  I've never been able to make it work with my 9.0 elements after many hours of trying.  The problem is recognized by Adobe and offered a solution, but the solution does not work in any of my three computers to Windows 7.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    What browser do you use?

    That is to say, can we try it in a slightly different way.

    In step 4 above, you should see the name that he will use in the Save dialog box. Change the extension of htm to reg and then click Save.

    This should create you can then double-click the correctly named file.

    I think your problem with the name change, it's that you have folder options set to hide known extension. We could change this option, but you may want you defined this way, so it is easier to meanings.

    Good luck - we will get there.

  • How can I move the folders from Windows XP that contains "Live Mail" e-mail files to a different location than C:\Document and Setings\...?

    I just migrated my PC Windows XP "Outlook Express" to "Live Mail" and the migration went really well - the progress of conversion migrated without any human intervention my thousands and thousands of emails, my many Email of OE, my address book files.

    I have however a problem and are not top-of-now a solution for this.

    With Outlook Express, files of Windows XP with my emails were on another Partition of Disk Partition c.  It is important for me, for all the 'application data' (for example, all emails) stored in another partition of the disc the C partition. Because if trouble with newly installed software (for example a beta Version of the software), I can use a backup of my C Partition and restore it without losing the data of the application (for example without losing everything new emails).

    Question 1: With "Live Mail", can I keep my emails to another folder of Windows XP as the standard C:\Document and Settings\... file? If Yes: How can I do this?

    Question 2: Is this whole "C:\Document and Settings\nom of utilisateur\Local settings\application data\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail" folder that I can move to another location?

    Where can I get information on these topics?

    Thank you for an answer.

    My apologies. I was finally able to find a description on how to move the folder containg XP on the Web e-mail "Live Mail".

  • Problem sending and receiving mail with Windows Live Mail

    I've never had any problems with Outlook Express, but since I installed WLM, I get a lot of mistakes as well to send and receive e-mails.
    I always get the same error number: 0x800CCC0E
    Error text is:
    The connection to the server has failed.

    Object "Kit costs spreadsheet".
    Server: ' smtp.accu - cast.us'
    Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800CCC0E
    Protocol: SMTP
    Port: 25
    Secure (SSL): No.
    Socket error: 10013

    Apparently, I can't give up WLM and return to the OE. Need help. Thank you

    I apologize for wasting your time. I'm afraid that I can't help.
    Maybe you should call Qwest. I have problem with your battery - cast.us as the name of the smtp server, but I can't explain it.
    Switching to port 587 smtp # is the right choice, because Qwest has put a block on #25.
    But I can't solve your problem.

  • Issue of Windows Live Mail with SPAM and junk e-mail. When I block a sender, I always get an email from them.

    The details are pretty easy. No matter how many times I click to block a source of junk mail I still get mail from the source. In short, the function block-spam does not work. I get the answer that the site has been blocked, but it is not. That's all. How can I get Windows Live Mail to block sources when I click

    the option of block source?

    original title: can not block spam

    Ridicule me. I had installed Windows Live Mail from a "last" Filehippo file. Problem ensued. I uninstalled [with Revo Uninstaller] and reinstalled through "Getting Started" in the start menu. No problem, everything is fine now. I learned my lesson the hard way though.

    I was surprised how much my humble question generated activity. If my mishap and the solution in any case everyone outside, good help for them.
    It's a kind of collateral damage of a reinstallation of the operating system. Installation, I replaced had lasted about a year, a record for me and would probably be still in place, if I had not made the mistake of dabbling with Acronis backup software I used on another computer with XP installed. There, it served a purpose, in Windows 7, it is a serious mistake. It replaces the built-in backup utility, and when inevitably corrupts it... both pis, Charlie.
