Where can I use my Microsoft Account expiration balance?

I see this was requested, but I don't see a response that helps me.  Only, I logged into my account after a LONG departure.  It seems that I have a balance of $39, but I don't see anywhere that I can use it.  I do not have a Windows phone, or an Xbox.  Where can I spend it then?  I really don't want to lose $39, but it almost looks like what will need to happen unless Microsoft comes in and allows me to use and drop it elsewhere (the Microsoft store so I could at least buy some hardware)...

Thanks for the help.

PS - there is no category / topic for that matter...  Thank you.

You can buy apps for Windows 8/8.1/10 also.  But yes, those who are for purchases of digital memory, not physical store in box item.s

  • 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:

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

    Just reply to the State of the question.

  • A little sleepy Internet - cannot connect to Skype by using my Microsoft account

    Hello

    Since this morning, when trying to connect to Skype by using my Microsoft account, I got a message that the Internet is a little sleepy and I have to try again later. It's using the desktop on Windows 8.1 version. However, I can use my Skype ID and I am able to use the account of MS on Skype on Android. I could also open a session using the Win 8 application using my account, Ms.

    I tried the option to completely uninstall Skype (including enforcement Win 8) as suggested elsewhere on the forums of discussion, but the problem persists.

    It's incredibly frustrating!

    Please give me an alternative or tips on how to get rid of this problem.

    Thank you

    I discovered the problem. For one reason or another in my LAN in Internet Explorer settings, I had ' configuration script automatically use "checked with a value for the script. Have no idea how it got there, but he stopped at IE to connect to the internet, but also this problem with Skype. I almost never use IE, I tend to use Firefox or Chrome.

    A little worrying that it unknowingly.

  • "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.

  • Do I need to install SP2 before SP3? If Yes, where can I find the Microsoft of SP2 version?

    I had to re - install Windows XP SP1a, from a CD of resettlement came with my Dell laptop. This was done because I upgraded the hard drive. This facility went well. I went to the Windows Update site to try to get the SP2 and SP3. The webiste is said to SP2 until you can do SP3. The only version of SP2, I find on the website says that it is for the professionals and see the link for the Service Pack to the simple version. When I go on this link there is no one version. Do I need to install SP2 before SP3? If Yes, where can I find the Microsoft of SP2 version? In addition, the site says that automatic updates SP2 but I checked my Configuration of the automatic updates and it will not take anything in. Is there a way to force the automatic update to run immediately? Thanks, Ben

    Ben,

    I totally agree with PML, you should be able to set up IE and then go to the Windows updates from there, once you get on the Windows Update site it will scan your system and implement critical updates and optional updates SP2 and SP3 should be on the list. It's a way to force an immediate update.

    I hope this helps.

    How can I use a new account to download a new trial?

    The account does not matter when you download a trial.  Just download the trial.  If you mean that you try to download a second copy of a trial on the same system that you have already run the trial on that won't work - a test system is the limit.
