    Having two computers laptops, wifi, windows7, and ie8. Your laptop, send and receive. Calendar and contacts works perfectly. Second computer, when you attempt to read emails via messenger or ie8, I get the above message, also calendar is not updated.     If I connect directly to hotmail, bypassing ie8 and Messenger, everything is there, I guess it's a timing issue. Would appreciate any help. (worked fine until about 3 months ago)

  • Failure of Hotmail - compromised account and cannot reset the password. The server is down, and the moderators are not admit it?

    DEAR MODERATOR, PLEASE READ THIS EMAIL CAREFULLY, IN ORDER TO AVOID THAT SUGGESTS A SOLUTION, I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES.

    I tried for five days to access my hotmail without success. Wednesday, December 14 I accessed my account the morning normally. However, in the afternoon, I found that my account has been blocked, apparently due to receive a large amount of spam. I followed the link in the window that asked me to provide a mobile number, so a code can be sent to me, and I would then be able to unlock the account. I provide my number, but received no codes for this date.

    I then entered the hotmail Help Center and asked a question asking for my account to be unblocked. I got a response the next day, saying the account was then unblocked and I could use it normally. However, I was unpleasantly surprised to discover that I couldn't open my hotmail, my password was not recognized. I tried to reset my password, but if you follow a link sent to an alternative email, every time since Thursday, the result was a page saying:

    There is a temporary problem

    There is a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to receive this message, try again later.

    I tried to reset my password more than 10 times in the last four days and nothing. I tried different browsers, tried to optimize the browsers, tried five different computers - AND NOTHING.

    I reported this problem on several occasions in the Help Center, but I got repetitive suggestions or 'solutions' that didn't work. Whenever I post an entry in my open question, I get the same suggestions over and over again. I realized that I'm only receive automated messages, and that no one really looking to my problem to offer assistance of effetive.

    Can anyone help me please with a decent and effective action?

    S ' Please don't ask if I tried different browsers, if I optimized browsers or if I tried other computers. I tried all of these options.

    S ' Please don't tell me reset the password. Your system says "there is a temporary problem" every time it has been 4 days, so it is not temporary, of course.

    -I would like someone to reset my password for me and send me a link to open my email. I have to open my email! I used it for over 14 years now, and this has never happened before!

    Please do not ignore this. Read it carefully and help me!

  • How to get Windows Live Mail 2011 to remove emails from my hotmail server account once they have been synchronized with the WML client. ?

    How to fix WLM 2011 to remove emails from my hotmail server account once they have been synchronized with the WML client. ? I've seen several references in forums to an option that is located on the Advanced tab in the menu Options/Email accounts/properties, but I don't have an option in the Advanced tab in this menu. Is there another way to do it. ? I tried to do this manually, but when I manually delete a message in my Hotmail account it also deletes the message on the client when it synchronizes. I would like to have my messages stored on my customer only and not on the server. Is there a way to do this. ?

  • If someone hijacking my hotmail internet account and I can't assess it how can I get back control of it?

    Three days ago, I received an email from Windows stating that I needed to check my Hotmail account because Windows wanted to empty their list of users who have been idle, so I had 3 days to re sign up or I'd lose my Hotmail account. I was asked to fill out a short form that asked me to give my name, email address, password, country and age. What I did. Since two days ago, I was not able to assess my hotmail account. Today, I had a friend call me to inform me that he and others on my hotmail address list had received an email from me. The email said tha I was stranded in the country of the Malaysia, and I needed three thousand dollars to leave this country. I never sent the email, and I've never been to the Malaysia. When I try to assess my Hotmail account, it says that my username and password do not match. He is apparently an ongoing fraud on my account hotmail and myself. I don't know how to contact the authorities of windows to correct the problem.
