• Windows Live Mail - Unable to delete contacts

  WLM2011, WIN7Pro. Icon 'Contacts' to L.L. (Ctrl-3) returns a blank page. All other L.L. icons work. I do not sign to WLM popup on the launch window. Names in new Message 'To' field is the drop-down window with correct addresses, selection highlights name. Normally send and receive messages. , I can't remove it from the list of contacts. Where is the list of contacts? How can I remove contacts?

  Thanks, Tushar:

  I followed the link you suggested, found

  Is it painful?

  Windows Live Mail REALLY ask you to use Hotmail and done everything in his power to help ensure that, even at the expense of 'hide' your old contacts.

  Follow these steps to recover your contacts:

  (1) in the upper left corner click on the arrow down just above the "Email" icon to open a hidden menu.

  (2) select Options.

  (3) select Mail.

  4) go to the Connections tab.

  (5) click on "Stop signing in.»

  It will be "UnHook" your client Windows Live Mail and like magic your old contacts will reappear.

  In my opinion, it's an EPIC FAIL the part of Windows Live Mail ability to manage contacts.

  and completely solved my problem, as if by magic.

  Thank you.

• Windows live mail supports an e-mail address electronic yahoo or can I open a live email account of windows with a yahoo email address

  I want to send a picture to my yahoo mail account and when I right click on the image for the image to my account yahoo e-mail sent my application in windows live mail account set up and because in the past when I was with another computer with windows 7 I have been unable to add my yahoo with my hotmail account account while I was trying to set up the windows messaging system. So, instead of trying to do it again. I thought it would be best to use this forum to solve this problem. Is this something that everyone has problems with?

  It is not because of the difference in operating systems, Vista vs. Win 7.
  The question is the same.

  For Hotmail, no configuration in Windows Live Mail problem.

  For Yahoo! Mail, you will have to pay $ 20 to upgrade your Yahoo to Yahoo! Mail Plus.

• Why don't I do drag and drop photos in real size of more attachments in the new Windows Live Mail?

  I am a real estate photographer, and one of the things I have to do on a regular basis is to send pictures to people. They need these photos as attachments. I downloaded the new Windows Live Mail and I noticed that I can't not simply 'Drag and Drop' photo attachments. Instead, Windows Live mail has resized the picture down and put a boarder around it. I went through the settings and I don't see anywhere I can click to the program, what he had ALWAYS done before, that was simple. Now to send a file, I have to click on the "Attachment" button, navigate my external drives and find the file that I send. I have hundreds of customers and too many files having to negotiate through. I prefer to be able to slide and have it set out in its full dimension, as I always did before in previous versions of WLM and Outlook Express.

  I ALSO can not simply with the right button on a photo, select "send to" and then 'recipient' and attach files there either. Now, it uploads to the Skydrive. My customers don't want it. They do not want additional steps. They just want an email with attached files.

  Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. I can't imagine that you got rid of those simpler features. Please don't tell me you didn't get rid of the simple ability to re size and attach pictures, did you?

• Windows Live Mail 2011 with Windows 7

  I'm running Windows Live Mail 2011 with Windows 7 for one Hotmail account, as well as three others with Tiscali addresses.  Microsoft has announced that they will support is no longer Windows Live Essentials 2011.

  I can manage without the Hotmail account, but my other three accounts will continue to work on Windows Live Mail 2011?

  Is it possible to upgrade to Windows Live Mail 2012 and download the latest Microsoft Update for this version.

  I have a laptop and tablet running Windows 10, but the construction option Mail is abominable and virtually unusable.

  Thank you for this very important information.  Very few of my clients use Microsoft Outlook online, or one of its related e-mail systems.  So, I was not aware of this.

  I hope won't be one problem for others who do not use Microsoft mail itself, like you.

  In your case, I recommend that you upgrade to WLM 2012.   http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-CA/Windows/essentials

  As I said before, WLM 2011 and 2012 are not visibly different, but if you use groups, you lose that.

  I suggest that you start by download Windows Live Essentials 2012.  Turn it back on.  Uninstall Windows Live Essentials 2011.  Turn it back on.  Install Windows Live Essentials 2012.

  If your WLM 2011 does not work properly, you won't suffer any loss of data.

  Windows Live Essentials is a complete set.  You should probably only WLM (which is part of it).  You can choose which items are installed.

  Microsoft announces support of falling all the time.  It rarely causes a lack of ability to work for most people.  Microsoft did this to reduce its staff.

• Windows mail, windows live mail and windows mail essentials?

  A bit confused what is the difference between windows mail, windows live mail and windows mail essentials.  I was told that windows live mail is not compatible with the scrolling etc. with stationery as the old outlook express.  But, said there is a program that is windows mail which is compatible with stationery for windows 7 and the next windows 8.  So, tell me what is the difference, and this was apparently offered with Vista? so why was he not available under windows 7?

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Mail

  Win7 contains no e-mail program, why - after contest ruleings from various countries, which is why when you install win7 using a real MS win dvd that you have the ability to choose which browser to use.

  Windows Live Essentials is a group of programs available in win7 or Vista

• Windows Live Mail is the bane of my existence

  I spent a year trying to use and as Windows Live Mail without success.   Not only I lost hours and hours trying to figure out where something I need disappeared to, but the only person that I can go to also spent a bit of time trying to straighten/figure much of him he took some computer classes and was the guru of computing where he worked for at least five years.  Even he can't answer a number of questions on how to find/work with various aspects of Windows Live Mail.  I used Windows mail for a few years and found that, while it had its faults, they are nothing compared to Windows Live Mail.  Apparently, I'm not alone because I spoke with other people who have the same opinion of Windows Live Mail, as I have.

  Surely you can "fix" some of the shortcomings of Windows Mail and let the primary program alone.  Compared to the shortcomings of Windows Live Mail my program Windows (installed on my old computer with Vista) was everything but perfect.  In 2007 transfer to a new computer with Vista was no problem for me, so I wasn't expecting to have problems when I got this new computer about a year ago.

  I'm willing to bet that if you improved rather than changed Windows Mail, then already, you will find the people flocking to get the program installed on their computer.  It must be remembered that many of us do not know much about computers and do not have access to people who can help us, then when you change it completely program, we are accustomed to the reigns of frustration.   Add in the fact that Windows Live Mail can only be terribly easy progressive even for people who work a lot about computers, then you have created the perfect storm.

  I thought about buying a new computer, but almost all are equipped with eight windows and I have not heard a single person who has eight windows say they like it.  In fact, they say generally that they hate a lot and/or are sorry they was sold.

  My theory is that your people who make these changes is very adept at the use of the computer and have no problem learning of new programs.  But a large number of buyers/users of your products have not this ability so become frustrated and start to think about buying something that might be easier to use.

  Having said all this, is it possible that I can re-install my old Windows program on my newer computer and not having compatibility problems?

  The solution is simple, just change you mail manager and make it the default. Then go to control panel > programs and features and windows uncheck (disable) live mail or if you can uninstall it.

  I use Postbox Express with XP and W7. There are other mail handlers out there, some good and some terrible. Just select 'Add an account' to P/Express and enter your address name and em. It will do the rest to set up your accounts.

• I need to disable the slide show feature in Windows Live Mail 2011

  I asked the question back here December 7:

  I have a list of disks that I send that contains some pictures. Is there a way to disable the slide show feature is not there when I send this list. Also - for some reason, it is much more difficult to add to my list because I went from Windows Outlook to Windows Live Mail 2011. No idea why it is difficult to make additions to my list?  Thanks - Bob
   
  It was the response I received from Michael Santovec:
   
  (1) turn off picture messaging
  WLM 2011: ALT + F, Options, mail, compose - uncheck: message to convert to e-mail photo when you add photos

  While composing
  WLM 2011: Insert (ALT + I), simple Photo or attach file

  There is a solution to avoid the send from Windows Explorer forcing picture messaging in WLM 2011 despite the program settings.

  When you select to send, accompanied of a record no graphic images.  This could be just a file dummy.txt which is located in the same folder.

  You will always have the ability to resize the images, but they find themselves attached instead of a mail of the photo.  You can then right click on the file dummy.txt and remove it from the message before sending it.

  An another workaround if you are connected with a Live ID account in WLM is right click on the album in the message composition window, then left click on the tab tools of Photo Album that highlights in the Ribbon, and then the trombone to convert attachments.

  Now, I'm not much more than a 'computer' man so maybe I did something wrong but the instructions above do not work. And now things have become even worse:

  -now, I try to download my list several times before it actually works. Most of the time part of the page or the whole page becomes completely black.

  -the few times that I can send my page and send him off to someone it takes about 5 to 6 minutes to go from my Outbox sent items.

  I really need to turn off the slide show feature in my windows Live Mail 2011, otherwise I'll have fet another e-mail provider that is not something I want to do. I really don't like the new look of WLM 2011, but this problem with the slideshow feature drives me crazy. Any help here will be greatly appreciated - Bob

  P.S. I thought to return to Outlook from Windows, but since I am on Windows 7 is apparently not an option.

• BIG problems with Windows Live Mail

  I am running Windows Live Mail on Windows 7 Professional to access my AOL email accounts, which are on a basis of IMAP.  I use a laptop brand new have a 1 TB HDD and 8 GB of RAM, so the size and speed are not a problem.  The first annoying problem I have is that whenever I close by Mail, I get a message saying that it is the purge of records.  Five seconds later, I get an error message from the server is offline, so the work has not ended.  Then, I need to close the windows.

  Secondly, when I reply to messages, sometimes it takes 5 to 10 seconds or more for the wheel stops.  If there is an attachment to the original email, the message that I send doesn't go away, even after they are sent, which makes me wonder if it was sent.  There are also an excessively long time to delete messages.

  I've used several other e-mail programs in recent years, including Outlook Express and have never encountered problems in using the same accounts AOL and format.  Are there changes I need to do, or are these problems known glitches between Windows Live Mail and an AOL IMAP account?

  1. the presentation of Softpedia pick the ' shortcut is at least 6 or 7 versions there is (and has been removed from the program there are at least 5 versions)-ignore
  2. the google image search is a mixture of old and some showing the latest version of civil (2009), which he has had 3 improvements. The most recent is WLM 14.8089.0726. To determine if you have the latest version on the top menu, click on help/topic/Microsoft Windows Live Mail
  -If you do not see the menu, press the Alt key - it is used to toggle.  The menu can be disabled permanently by clicking the square to the left of the "question mark" at the top right. Scroll down and select the Menu display.
  3. do you intend to post in the Windows Live Mail Desktop using WLM newsgroup... If so, we can say your version by message properties. If you continue to post via the web interface, we cannot... so the earlier suggestions to use the discussion group showing the ability of WLM.  Knowing the version of WLM can make a difference in the problem and the answer.
  4. the configuration for the "purge" messages associated with an IMAP account can be found in WLM on its "Maintenance" tab
  Tools/Options/Advanced/maintenance
  What are your settings for the two elements of "Purge" (Deleted messages) and Newsgroup?  Consider uncheck both
  5 other things you should consider doing (temporarily) in WLM to rule out any automatic handshake between the AOL IMAP server and WLM
  -Uncheck the send and receive Messages at startup; Uncheck the check Messages every x minutes (Tools/Options/general tab)
  -Uncheck all options on the tab connection (Tools/Options/connections) and click on stop signing if the button/option is present.
  -Uncheck "use deleted items folder for IMAP (Tools/Options/Advanced) accounts - this option has been know to interfere with the"Purge"for AOL accounts"
  -Set the counter to 1 (Tools/Options/Advanced/Maintenance tab) - compact the database during shutdown.  Make sure that you are in e-mail mode, then take it out by file/Work Offline / file / exit.  WLM should encourage compact... agree and don't interrupt. Once that is done, open WLM, file/work online and repeat the test.
  6 turn off email scanning in you client Antivirus and other applications (additional, firewall security software etc it email scanning is done)
  7. If you are connected via cable or a DSL connection set up Internet Explorer (or other browser never establish a connection.
  -If you do not use IE, please specify which browser.

  Report any success of failure after doing the above (you can try them both, or test each incrementally.

  It would be much appreciated if you could communicate the results in a new message using WLM as your news reader in Windows Live Mail Desktop forum

• Location of the folder to Windows Live Mail attachments

  Hello!

  I'm operating on your laptop abroad. The email client is Windows Live Mail.  I do not use it at home. People send me .doc attachments or.docx.  I don't have Office 2010 on this machine so need to open them in free Office or Open Office. I looked in AppData/Roaming and cannot find the .doc files.

  Thank you

  FJJWagner

  I just browsed to the folder where incoming .doc files are stored

  When you receive an e-mail message with an attachment, the "attachment" is just a block of code at the end of the message you want to read. In the upper part of the block will be a line of header Content-Type by saying the program which contains the code block. For a Word document, it will often be application/msword. You can see for yourself if you select the message in the message list, press Ctrl-F3. This will reveal all of the source of the message. Attachments will be inside; If you start at the bottom and scroll until you get a blank line, you will see the header for the attachment lines.

  The attachment does not become a file until you ask the client e-mail program to open it or save it to a file. Then, the program converts the code in the appropriate format - in this case, a Word document - and generates a file. If you have selected Save, the file will have the name you choose and be stored in the location you choose. To do this, in Windows Live Mail, right-click on the icon of the attachment in the message header area, and then select record under. You can accept the file name suggested if there is one, or enter a new name. Once registered, the attachment is a Word document as those you produce yourself and will be treated as such by any program that you use to open it.

  If you receive a message like this one in a Hotmail type account and read in your web browser, will give you the ability to view the attached document online, where you will be able to use an online version of Word to read, edit and save the document.

• I've updated Windows 8 and Windows Live Mail now clashes with Microsoft Store

  Hello

  I use Windows Live Mail. I just updated Windows 8.1 (regular updates) and rebooted my PC. Now when I click on the links in my emails, rather than open this link in my Web browser, it shows "no apps are installed for this type of link (res)" and gives me the ability to search the store.

  Thanks in advance for your help,

  Stephen

  I don't know what a "res" link would be, because the e-mail links should be the "mailto:" Protocol.

  But you can try this:

  Go to the desktop Panel by right clicking your Start button.  Under the section "Programs", find "choose your default programs" and the value of Windows Live Mail to have all possible defects it can handle.

• How to import my AddressBook and emails from Windows Live Mail 2011 in Thunderbird?

  My new ISP had problems with Windows Live Mail so I'm now using Thunderbird for the first time. I've never used T-bird before so keep the simple instructions.

  A picture is worth a thousand words, they say.

  

  Apparently, the choices are slightly different after 5 years. "Import all messages from a directory '

  In the toolbar, click address book. On the Tools menu, select Import and specify the file type.

  I'm talking about opening a CSV file in a spreadsheet hereto clean up the columns and positions because it is much easier to use tools of import from Thunderbird to make. (they crack on this task)
