• login screen Microsoft account does not accept my password reset

  After trying several times the cccount login page microsoft won't reset my password.  I called microsoft and they say reset my password again.  I have done this and chosen a new password, but it still does not recognize my new password.  Help!

  You have enabled authentication step 2?

  I suspect what happens is that you use always the global account password and not the built application password.  You will always get mail until you connect the device (which is a good idea in any case) and then you'll need generate a password (on the pc in outlook.com) and 'trust' of the mobile device. After what he should not do that.

  You must open a session and go here https://account.live.com/securityprivacy/overview to do.

  Alternatively, you can install the outlook application, so whenever you need an "access code", you can approve it directly on the mobile device.

  Hello Gaile,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I appreciate your time.

  I suggest to disable the antivirus software and check the number.

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Please keep us updated.

  Thank you

• Account balance using Microsoft for 8 Windows / Windows Phone 8 purchases?

  I currently have a Microsoft account balance of £18.02 I was wondering if anyone knew how to set my Microsoft account as a means of payment on a platform... This is related to the MS points being retired on the Xbox 360 as a form of currency...

  After looking on commerce.microsoft.com this is a payment option, but it does not explain how to exchange the value I've stored there in it. In addition, on my Xbox 360 I have managed to buy. It seems a little redundant only able to use one format when there are all these platforms designed to be linked together.

  Thanks in advance

• I'm stuck on my laptop Windows 8 and cannot unlock my Microsoft account. How can I return to my laptop?

  My mother had a new laptop from Windows 8 for Christmas. Woohoo! She already has a Windows Phone, so she has a Microsoft account.

  When she first signed in her computer, she didn't use his account of Microsoft, so she used a different email address. We had him go back and link their account to a Microsoft Account, but she could not remember the password to MY (her phone does not require it to remember). So, while she has access to his account of MY through his phone (email, skydrive, Messenger, etc.), she can't connect to it via the web or their new computer. To further complicate the things, all this switching autour led to forget the password, she chose when she first signed in the (local account on the) laptop.

  So, now it is totally locked out of his computer. We tried to reset her password to MY, but unfortunately the security only option we have is to send it to an e-mail address that is not fully illustrated and must be incorrect, because we never received the email to reset. Ugh.

  Yes, Yes, we should have remembered the password. Yes, we should add more security options (such as the telephone number of its Windows Phone). This isn't the issue, the question is: how the hell we have access to his laptop again?

  A question is: How do we get access to mastery again? We tried three or four times to give all the information they ask for (last addresses sent e-mail to the last e-mail subject lines, etc.) without success (despite the fact that it can send and receive emails from its Windows Phone). We do not have a credit card or other billing associated with his account information and it did not create folders to email him (and apparently, can't make his phone).

  It gets really frustrating - there should be a way to talk to a human being or something that can reason better than Microsoft account unlocker automated tool.

  Last updated on 26/12/12:

  It is interesting that my mother would have access to his account (e-mail, skydrive, e-mail) via his phone but, since she don't remember not his password to his laptop or the live.com site. It is also interesting that even if she has a phone that is obviously linked to his account, it cannot receive a text (or messenger note or same email) with a link to security number/password or password reset via his phone.

  If anyone with the ability to listen, my mother could really use a link reset password secure e-mail to its live.com account, so that it can reset his password on his phone!

  Otherwise, I think it's just going to return the laptop Windows 8. They do not have give it an OS reinstall the drive, which is the only other thing I can think to recover his system...

  PS: It would also be nice if Microsoft would publish an email address on their account or email recovery page such that when the process fails, there is another available for persons other than simply to try new way (which is, as some claim, the definition of insanity).

  Thank you!

  Thanks for any help you can provide.

  Come back in my laptop after talking to 4 technicians of Microsoft, seems that if you hold down the SHIFT key and press on restart you start a totally different group of options. Which is safe mode, once you start in safe mode, go to run type msconfig in the start option in msconfig, you will find in the Startup column this repair active directory has been selected uncheck the safe boot option and restarting worked for me

• Passage of a Microsoft Account - secure peripheral Local account

  Original title: passage of the Local of a Microsoft Account account

  Hi all

  Yesterday, I went from a Microsoft Account to a Local account and back three times to compare the two types of account. On the occasion of the second and the third... After the trusted Pc, I was sent to the verification screen where I expect to have for the last four digits of my phone number to send an entry code. It happened that I just got a screen saying something to the effect of thanks for checking your account... I had nothing to do. Is this correct? The system remembers you or something?

  Thank you, in advance, Rick

• Cannot connect with my Microsoft account

  I'm able to connect with my MS on this forum but Skype for Windows Desktop said: No.

  Why?

  Exact message I get:

  Sorry, we did not recognize your connection details. Please check your Skype name and password and try again.

  I am able to connect to this forum and other accounts using my LiveID. Skype is the one and only it does not work. Also able to connect to Skype on my Windows Phone. Only the Windows desktop does not work. Any ideas?

  Since it is not possible to connect with my Microsoft Account on "Desktop Skype" I uninstalled Skype both machines.

  Bye,.
