• When I try to use my e mail on outlook express, it will not let me delete my messages read. also I'm now getting an error code 0x800co133 any ideas on how to solve my problem?

  I tried to restart, assigning to a bygone era, [and who always says it cannot be set to this date and chose another, but that does not work either].

  This is due to floating files, the result of many messages in the Inbox, or lack of compaction.

  Move all messages you want to save out of the Inbox, deleted items, and sent items in local folders, you create. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

  If there is no message in the Inbox you want to, but can not move after return, before doing anything more.

• Outlook express is not let me view my message out everything as I compose it

  I am not able to scroll down to see what I type in an outgoing message, the window opens far enough.  This just happened in recent weeks; no problem before that.

• Windows Update - Outlook Express will not download new email after the last update

  After you have installed the latest update of Windows XP files (KB972270; KB977840; KB955759; KB890830) and my OUtlook Express will not download my new messages. Error message occurs sating that a file is possibly corrupted and use Scandisk to repair. This has happened on my computer and my wife using the same basic configuration. Could not resolve the problem before doing a system restore to a previous Restore Point before the update of Windows. So my Windows Updater is no longer needed.

  Display error message (verbatim) complete (e.g., default mail client is not properly installed).

  I have adobe Premiere elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or do fade in or out. I can move the yellow to the bottom line until the volume reads - 0.0, but the noise is still there during playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that chart volume takes a strong recovery or dip at the beginning or at the end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What I am doing wrong?

  Rickey

  Thanks for the follow-up report.

  Just a lit bulb. Maybe the answer, maybe a spleen.

  Look carefully at the audio track of the timeline in the vicinity of title of the file.

  

  The title of your file audio timeline shows: level of Volume or something else. If something else, click the tiny triangle where

  the red arrow in the screen shot is sharp and select the Volume and then level so that you end up with

  Volume: level as shown in the screenshot.

  Hope it's the factor involved.

• My outlook express will not delete some e-mail, how to fix this?

  I tried to remove a few emails and it won't let me.  I was able to move it to the junk e-mail folder, but not delete it.  I also can't just delete it in the junk e-mail folder.  Any ideas?

  First of all, OE doesn't have a native junk folder. However, I assume that you have the damaged dbx files.

  Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.

  Anyone know an easy solution?

  the error code:

  An unknown error has occurred. Account: name, Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800C0133

  Do as I have indicated above, but instead of moving most of the messages in your Inbox, all move them and delete the Inbox.dbx file as well.

  If you move all messages from the Inbox for a reason, do the above and then come back and move messages in the Inbox and then delete the Inbox.dbx with OE closed box.

  Your Inbox is damaged due to become bloated and/or lack of compaction.

  1: view | Current view. Show all Messages is verified?

  2: If Yes to the #1, see if you have an Inbox.bak file in the Recycle Bin of Windows and if so, what is the date of creation?

  3: If Yes to 1 and 2, after the return before doing anything else.

  4: If so #1 and not #2, you will need a tool to recover lost messages if you wish.
