Windows 8 Mail App does not connect to the Outlook account

Recently downloaded and installed Win8, no obvious problems so far.

I want to set up my "Mail" app to get the mail on my outlook.com account. However, every time I get back the address email + password who logs me in me oriented web Outlook.com account, he said 'we could not find settings, please provide more information' and asks the domain names and the server.
I don't know where to go from here, I have to provide some servers to connect to my outlook.com account or is there something else, I'm missing?
My outlook.com account is configured to receive emails from other pop account. He receives these fines in the Inbox, no apparent problems.

I discovered the root of the problem and fixed it (I suspect it's what Mark Bu said, but in a different way!)

My outlook.com account is an account that is only associated with my windows user account, based on my own e-mail account as a connection made by myself in order to use integrated Ms. There is no outlook or hotmail related account. Despite this, I use outlook.com to receive e-mail from my other Inbox via pop and "receive mail from other accounts".
Trying to connect to outlook.com fine online works, try with mail app fails with this, even if it's a known workaround solution to get pop mail on the win8 Mailer application.
My solution was to simply go to 'rename the account' to outlook.com and create an e-mail address for microsoft based 'real' (@outlook.com) and migrate my windows account for this. Post instantly connected without problem, and my redirect pop still works.
Pity that couldn't stop time on the chat line for microsoft technology, it just kept saying 'call your provider of domain for more details'. It could have been resolved in 30 seconds he said "you need a real Microsoft based outlook.com e-mail use it»

  • Windows 8 Mail App does not display inline images

    Hello

    I use Windows 8 Pro and the mail app does not correctly display the inline images. It shows small icons at the top of the email on which you can click to download the images, but the real images have only a name in a big box where it would have been the image. I can do to implement?

    Hello Art,

    My understanding is that the problem is a problem on the side of Gmail and is linked to the way that Gmail sends his images online when you use the EAS Protocol.

  • Windows 8 Mail App does not synchronize

    One of the main features I liked about Windows 8 no longer works, the Mail app. November 9, all my accounts package stopped sync: Yahoo, Gmail and AOL. On 16 November, Hotmail finally leaves. I researched and tried to restart the computer, remove the accounts (from all the PC option), add accounts, reset the Windows Firewall, execution of the app repair tool and uninstall and reinstalling Mail/calendar/people, all to nothing does not. After the reinstallation of the application, it recover my Hotmail, but other accounts show upward, but said that they could not synchronize. I removed the once again, and now they will not return. Each immediately say "unable to connect. Make sure that the information you entered is correct. "Which, believe me, I have. When I try to add them as one 'other' account with "Show more details", enter all the info, I get "we still can't find the settings for.

    . Providing this additional info may help. If you don't know this information, search online or check with your provider."

    I have figured out the problem myself. It was Avast! AntiVirus' Mail Shield that was keeping the app from connecting. Even adding the SSL exclusions to the list didn't work - I had to disable the Mail Shield entirely.

  • Apps does not connect to the internet.

    I first noticed a problem when the onedrive displays the triangle yellow error, while veiwing my files. I found that my onedrive could not connect to the internet, even though I know that my internet works fine because I still can't browse the web. I ran for onedrive troubleshooting, but it does not detect a problem. I thought that I delete it and download it again from the store, but when I tried to open the app store, I found that could not connect to the internet either. All my other apps seem to have the same problem. Troubleshooting for these other applications also do not increase a problem.

  • Troubleshooting-new HP with Windows 7 spectrum XT, does not connect to the WiFi at home?

    So I just got my brand new HP ENVY spectrum XT Ultrabook with Windows 7 Home Premium installed. 64 bit. I start it, everything works fine, except that when I connect to my WiFi at home. I tried to connect, entered my password, but it does not connect. Also tried the easy connection on the router. No luck. I checked my old laptop which runs on Windows Vista to see if WiFi worked always, and this is where it gets interesting. I was able to browse the internet and internet worked, but suddenly Windows informed me that "another computer uses the same IP address" and it stops my internet capabilities on my old laptop. I connected my cable ethernet on both computers, and it works for both computers when it is plugged. While that plugged, I discovered that I could create my own IP address, which I did on my old laptop and so far that seems to have solved the problem. However, my DESIRE is always not connecting to WiFi. Any advice?

    Hi ZachRhodes3,

If you do not 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 during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Follow these steps:

    Step 1: Start the computer in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists.

    Step 2: If the problem does not persist in safe mode with networking, perform a clean boot to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 7 the link to start the computer to a Normal startupmode.

  • The e-mail application does not connect to the Dreamhost servers. Perhaps because of how they configure their SSL certificate for their subdomains.

    http://wiki.DreamHost.com/Certificate_Domain_Mismatch_Error

    Certificate SSL of Dreamhost for their mail servers only at one level of subdomain while many of their clusters of e-mail exist on a second level subdomain. In my view, this translates into an error message 'bad security' of the e-mail application.

    I contacted DreamHost and they say they are unable to solve this problem, or that they will allow me to install an SSL certificate on my virtual domain pointing to my cluster e-mail (even if I had to buy a).

    I understand, it is possible to manually add certificates via adb in a way similar to this: http://www.pending.io/add-cacert-root-certificate-to-firefox-os/

    However what I read this: 1. does not work on the ZTE Open 2. Can only fix only navigation not the web mail client.

    Is there any option that is available to me short of switching hosts?

    Fabian,

    Are you familiar with Firefox OS? The reason why I say this is because the e-mail client cannot create an excaption certificate. In fact, it's design. It's design: https://wiki.mozilla.org/Gaia/Email/Features#Security

    This request for support to Mozilla was placed specifically for the product Firefox OS, for which there is only a single mail client.

    That said many people in the Mozilla Bugzilla, have been able to show me how to find another alias for those servers that actually works and in fact corresponds to SSL certificates. Although Dreamhost support could not provide me with any such information, and such information is not actually in the DreamHost wiki.

    I have a repeated insistence of Dreamhost possibility I should just live with the exceptions of SSL certificate, when there is real existing valid server names to match the certificates in question, silly.

    The fact that you post this solution for one product, so that it is not yet applicable beyond useless. It serves to muddy waters.

  • Problem with Windows Fax and Scan does not connect to the Internal Modem

    Just got a new Acer Aspire 5542-5416 computer laptop with Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, 4 GB of Ram and a 320 GB hard drive. It has a 56 k modem integrated fax of like the old days, but I can't make it work. The laptop did not come with the Windows CD.

    If I open the program Windows Fax and Scan, it is not able to connect to the modem. Basically, if I click on tools > fax accounts > Add..., I get a box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server. When I want to connect a fax modem I get a message that says: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator. It allows me to do this then just clock OK and them I'm right where I started.

    While in Windows Fax and Scan, if I click on tools > fax settings... nothing happens. No menu settings or anything ever appears. Quite simply, the program does nothing. If I try tools > Fax Status Monitor... I get a box that says entrance exam status, ready to receive a fax. It has a blue progress bar as something takes over, but it gets about 1/100 to and never goes further or ends. There is no box, but there are 3 buttons: view details, answer call or cancel. If I hit details, I get an empty list. If I click on answer call I get an error that says that the fax service is not available.

    If I try tools > Options, general tab has only a single option box is checked: play a sound when come it to new messages. If I try to print a Word or PDF file to a fax using Fax in the printer list, I get the same box with 2 choices: to connect to a fax modem or connect to a fax on my network server, but I get the same error message: an error has occurred. Please, try the operation again later or contact your administrator.

    I've searched the Internet high and low for a solution but no luck. There is a lot of discussion about this problem, but none of the solutions work for me. If I go to Device Manager, the modem is working properly and if I click on the Modem query on the Diagnostics tab, it seems to be able to communicate with the modem very well. I tried to roll back the driver and updated again and still no luck, same problem. If I go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax\Accounts in the registry, there is no subkeys under the folder accounts I can delete.

    Has anyone else had a similar problem? Is there any solution for this? I did a Windows Update last night and has not yet solve it. Thank you.

    Sorry about that.
