  • Help, please! Impossible to pass the local account on the Microsoft account.

    I got a Samsung ATIV smart PC 500 t as a gift today and I'm going to be very difficult to implement. I tried on and off for about 14 hours now without success.  Here is what happened:

    I've updated the PC software told me to. (there was a brochure stating that I needed to update before using my keyboard dock)

    I put the PC by using a local account, because for some reason, he said it was impossible to add my Microsoft account I created today specifically for this PC.

    I tried several times to switch to the Microsoft account and I get the error message

    "We're sorry, but something went wrong. your account has not been changed to this account from Microsoft.

    "Code: 0x800b0101.

    What does that mean? Why this is happening and what needs to be done to solve this problem?

    I also tried using the tiles, hoping maybe going this route would allow me access to my Microsoft account so that I can at least use the apps and what not.  When you try to open the store, I have this message: 'we are could not connect to the Bank. This could have happened due to a server problem or network connection has expired. Please wait a few minutes and try again. "I also tried via the contacts, messages and weather applications. Whenever I get similar error messages.

    Of course, I am not very computer savvy, my internet connection is working properly, I am able to access the various web pages (even if I get a warning message of security for each of them, which is very annoying).

    Anyway, I can't understand this. Does anyone have a tip or useful information? Can I use my PC.

    Thank you!!

  • How can I remove the microsoft account and use the address as one alias on another?

    So I have two microsoft accounts using gmail addresses, the first is the one who has all my data (throughout the onedrive, Skype, xbox, windows, etc.) and the second has nothing. I want to do is delete the second so that I can use the address as primary on the first alias (as is my most used gmail account). Is this possible?

    account 1: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    account 2: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    Hi Dan,.

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    From the description, it seems that you want to remove one of the two Microsoft accounts.

    Once you remove the secondary account from Microsoft, you can use the primary address, but you can go as an alias. 

    To remove a Microsoft account, you can see the Microsoft article and check if that helps:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/remove-account

    Note: Before deleting an account Microsoft make a backup of data.

    You can also consult the Microsoft account and check if it helps:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/account-close-account

    To remove the Gmail account, you can green light, making the Gmail Web site.

    Just reply to the State of the question.

    Thank you.

  • Unable to connect to the network share after the Microsoft Account

    I am running Windows 8 Pro and if I setup with a local account, I can access my server to NetApp files very well. As soon as I switch to a Microsoft Account, I can't connect to file shares. I get "the specified server cannot perform the requested operation."

    How can I use my Microsoft Account and still access the network share?

    Also, I have a laptop running Windows 8, connected to the same network that can access the share file very well. I already tried a "system refresh" and complete a reinstall.

    Any suggestion?

    If you map a drive to the share and select Connect using different credentials and enter your local account information it works?

    You can map a drive by:

    1. Right-click on computer.

  • "Update info" link does not work in Windows 8 by using the Microsoft account

    I have Windows 8 Pro. I had signed with my Microsoft account.

    Recently, I ran into problems of synchronization and so had to sign out and sign in my account from Microsoft on my PC in Windows 8.
    I have 2 steps check activate my Microsoft account and authenticate using the authenticator application for Windows Phone 8.
    I signed on the Microsoft account on my PC after switching to a local account and on the Microsoft account. I used normal password (not the app since it does not accept it). Successfully signed in, she says that the parameters can not be synchronized until I've "update info" in my Microsoft account. I know it asks me the passcode generated by the application, but the link is dead. Here is the screenshot of the link.
    How can I make it work?
    Reset my PC isn't an option. I can't afford to lose everything I have in there. In addition, a system at this stage image backup is useless for obvious reasons.

    Hi Ram,

    As the link update security information is dead, you can connect to the Microsoft account directly and update security information.

  • New computer wants me to combine Skype with the Microsoft account to connect. How should I not do this?

    I have an account to both personal and professional for Skype. I use the business account more. In the process of setting up the account company on my new computer, I asked for the connection information for the Microsoft account. After that, he wants now all merge so I sign in Skyp with connection to Microsoft. I don't want to do that.

  • Merger of Skype with the Microsoft account

    I use the Microsoft account and without much thinking, I chose "I am new to Skype" on the connection for the first time. Now I can't get the screen to merge the accounts because it saves me straight to an empty contact list :)

    So the question is: how to get to this screen again to choose the option to merge the old Skype account?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Need to change the username on the microsoft account

    last year, I used my email to set up an account to Microsoft for laptop of my daughter (go to College).  Now, I need to use my email to set up a Microsoft account for me to use the features of 8.1 of Windows on a new computer laptop, I just bought.  For example if I want to use the mail on W8.1 client it forces me to set up a Microsoft account because I don't want to link this machine the software licenses for my daughter's account, etc..  HOW CAN I CHANGE THE USERNAME ON HIS ACCOUNT SO I CAN USE MY EMAIL ADDRESS TO MY NEW ACCOUNT GAME?

    If you connect to http://account.microsoft.com , you would be able to change your email address.

    One way would be to pass account to your Microsoft Account daughter portable Local account and then use create new Microsoft Account for her and connect with her

    However, you connect with your account in your PC and then your bet as you wish.
