Windows Live Mail - starts OK on initialize to top every day but disappears later in the day.

Running Windows Vista Home (Service Pack 2).  Using Windows Live Mail.

Normal daily start up, once online I have no problem running Live Mail.  I check for emails, and once completed, I normally have to close the program.  Later in the day, when I want to check for other emails, even once is not a problem.

However and on a random basis, there comes a time when I try to load Live Mail but it does not load.  Initially, the hourglass turns on and the light disc shows some activity, but Live Mail starts it.

If I do a Ctrl + Alt + Delete to check what programs are running, it shows Live Mail.

The only resolution I've found is to re - start the PC.  The model then rehearsals sometimes, but not always.

Clues or fixes out there?

The next time you check the status in the Task Manager, when you find Windows Live Mail click the switch button to see if that move you to the program and he opened for you.

If it does not, in the Task Manager and then click Windows Live Mail and click on end task this is confirmed.  Once he is gone (give it some time), open another window, and then try to connect again.  It cannot solve the problem, but it's better than the re-start (if it works).

I would like to know if one of these workarounds help solutions.

If not, please transfer your question in Forum Windows Live Mail to: http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop where experts in this program will be happy to help you.

Good luck!

  • When I open Windows Live Mail he asks me to sign in every time. I want to connect automatically.

    original title: Windows Live Mail

    When I open Windows Live Mail a pop up appears asking me to sign in to Windows Live Mail.  I don't want to do and would like to stop the appearance of the application.  I'm perfectly happy using Live Mail for my mail, but don't want or don't need any interaction with other Windows Live services. How can I stop this request appearing as it's quite boring?

    To use Windows Live Mail and this Web site, you need a Windows Live ID, and looking for the password ID to get your email address. The information and click "save my password". You can remove an account, if you do not want to get the emails of her by clicking on the blue box which opens a few choices. Choose options > accounts, find the account and delete it. Use another program such as Mozilla Thunderbird and set up accounts if you want Live Mail does not support the account you want to use.

  • My Windows Live Mail is sorted in alphabetical order by family name, but now, when I add a new contact, it is positioned at the top of the list instead being placed in the right place alphabetical.

    My direct mail is sorted in alphabetical order by family name, but now, when I add a new contact, it is positioned at the top of the list instead being placed in the right place alphabetical.  How to load the list of contacts to organize all contacts, including contacts, in alphabetical order by family name?

    E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    My direct mail is sorted in alphabetical order by family name,

    It is not clear what you mean by this statement.

    • There is an option in the contacts window in kind (names) of > name -is that what you mean?
    • Or that, when you open / switch to the contacts window, you see a list sorted by last name?
    • Or that when you click on to... or start typing in the to... box in a message composition window, you see a list ('contact selector') sorted by family name?

    Only in contact with an e-mail address will appear in the "Chooser". The list includes names in alphabetical order. For contacts with a first name and a registered name , the list will be sorted based on the preference granted to sort by in the Contacts window. Contacts with multiple email addresses will appear once for each address with the address in brackets after the name.

    Name is a special value built by WLMail contact data fields. It will consist of the first match found during the analysis of the data fields in the following order:

    1. Nickname
    2. First name + last name (in the order specified to sort by in the Contacts window)
    3. First name or last name
    4. Company
    5. E-mail address
    As you start typing in of... box, WLMail will present a list of matching entries in your contacts list. You can start typing username, first name, first name, company, e-mail address to a contact or any significant word in the Notes field for this contact. So, if you type bil, for example, the list that appears will include
    • any person whose nickname starts with Bil, e.g. Billyboy
    • any person whose first name begins with Bil, e.g. of Bilbo Baggins
    • anyone whose first name begins with Bil, for example Jim Bilko
    • everyone whose company name starts with Bil, e.g. Billingsgate Market
    • everyone with an address of e-mail from bil bil or just after a period or the ' @' symbol, for example "the bilbo at hotmail dot com" or "jim to billingsgate dot com" or "jim.bilko at hotmail dot com.
    • all categories whose name contains a word starting with bil

    If this does not solve your problem, please post your question in the forum dedicated to contacts in Windows Live Mail.

  • Windows Live Mail always tells me I'm out of line, but I'm not.

    I continue to receive a pop-up window asking me if I would go online now, even if I'M online.  When I click on 'YES' (I want to go to the line), I just get the same pop window.  I can't use my Windows Live mailbox to send or receive e-mails.

    I tried the suggested Control Panel / uninstall a program / right click on Windows Live Essentials / select uninstall-change / clicked on repair all Windows Live programs.  End of "repair", he stated that all Windows Live programs had been repaired.  HOWEVER, the same problem exists when I try to open my Inbox mailbox.

    Open Internet Explorer, and then press Alt + F to open the file menu. If work offline is selected, deselect it. If it is not selected, select it, wait a few moments and then deselect. Now check if Windows Live Mail is still offline. If this is the case, repeat the cycle to select/deselect in IE until WLMail Gets the message.

  • What is the difference between Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail?

    Separated from this thread.

    I realize that starting from 7/11, Windows Live is more effective on my Windows Vista system.  I understand that and I have since beengetting my Hotmail acc't workingusing only Windows Live Mail.  This am, I tried to create a new account hotmail for my friend, but we couldn't get it to accept and just stopped trying.  Now, today, I can not send any e-mail because "you cannot configure Windows Mail to use a web (HTTP) that is running Windows Vista based."  WHA?  I managed somehow to get into Windows Live when I tried to get a new account hotmail for my friend?  Also, I also receive a message from the Assistant on "you want to want to leave, you have not created your new account?  (probably not the exact wording).  In response, I clicked Yes and no, and still I can't get out of this Windows Live.  I would like to purge my system of this needless to Windows Live and only use Windows Live Mail.  Can someone help me to do this?  (My knowledge of couputer is at a basic level, so hopefully it won't be too difficult to understand.)  Thank you!!!

    (With the HTTP mess), it seems Windows Mail and Windows LIVE Mail are two very different things.

    I am not a technician, but try to stay up-to-date. I have known that Vista sucks because it came out, but it surprised me, never have used before today. So I wonder...  Windows LIVE Mail can be installed on a Vista unit, and if so he would remove the format HTTP bug? It's all THE Microsoft, after all! On my PC with Windows 7 HP with complete Essentials, including Live Mail (for PC, to avoid confusion with the version online), I have not had any problems to Hotmail at work, send or receive. GMail also, no problem, the only thing I did NOT like about Live Mail is that it doesn't have the handy function "Sweep" that I love, I just go online to own things very quickly. With only Windows Mail (which I assume is supplied with Vista), it won't let me even try to set-up Hotmail/Outlook account. It's stupid, because like I said it's all EM!

    peace ~

    Windows Mail is the e-mail that comes with client program and a part of Windows Vista. Windows Live Mail is a program available for free download; It is an e-mail client, the timing, the Manager contacts, aggregator and newsreader at a single feeding program.

    Until a few years ago, it was possible to synchronize the Hotmail accounts with e-mail clients on Windows XP and Vista (Outlook Express and Windows Mail respectively) using WebDAV over HTTP protocol. This method has been deprecated after a long sequence of initialization in September 2009. Before that date, POP3 access has been made available for all Hotmail accounts. At any time it was not possible to access Hotmail email clients accounts. There is no bug involved here, nor in HTTP format or anything else.

    Windows Live Mail is built to use a different former WebDAV protocol; DeltaSync protocol allows the synchronization of e-mail folders, contacts, and calendars between client and server.

    You may be able to download the installer for Windows Live Mail 2011 of this page: How to install Windows Essentials while offline? Do not try to include Windows Live Writer or Messenger in the installation; None of them will work and you can gum up toward the top of the entire installation Essentials if you do. It may be better to stick to one mail at first. Windows Live Mail 2011 is the latest version which runs on Vista.

    In particular, I think, note this:

Connect to your management page email accounts to set up SMTP relay.

Contact your Internet service provider for this setting.

    I seem to have problems with Windows Mail, perhaps caused by the update KB978542 and/or run the program WMUtil.

    One of my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit machines, whenever I try to start Windows Mail, it displays 0x800C0155 error message, then a message saying that he was unable to start because MSOE. DLL could not be initialized.

    The other has problems of material type instead: it's a laptop with no mouse and no reliable connection to the internet.

    On my Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 32-bit machine, I can start Windows Mail, but most local issues have disappeared - only the Inbox is visible.  I already checked that subdirectories for the other files are still present.

    All three of these machines have had problems of backups for months and have had no successful backup for the last two months.

    I have trouble finding enough information about Windows Live Mail without having to install this program if it could avoid these problems or just make it worse.

    Hello

    Yes sorry for the confusion, I used OE now on Windows live mail

    I was thinking about the error - with her referring to a "incorrect password", which I was 100% sure is the right.  (As well as all the settings again 100% correct that I compare with laptop on the desktop).

    I decided to log in my account of talktalk, which manages my phone, broadband etc and change my password by e-mail. Just to see if that would work.

    For some reason, it worked and I got e-mails from talktalk in windows live!  I did the same thing for my 2nd talktalk email address and my 3rd & last and it worked. !!

    I just don't understand not, as mentioned, all my p/Word & settings were correct.    It looks like I can well have solved the problems.

Also a UAC window appears whenever I try to open windows live mail.

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 is not saving sent Messages - 8 victory

    Recently my laptop was stolen and had to get a new.

    Fortunately, I had everything backed up with mypcbackup.com, so not too lost.  However, I have major issues with Win Live Mail.

    1. saved messages are not saving to sent mail.  The boxes are checked.  I checked that "show all messages" is the parameter.  I tried to change the folder to mail to a new charge storage and empty one.  Nothing works.  Someone said that the parameters of time and the region can effect.  Mine are set for time and my correct location even though when I bought the laptop, it has been the standard we TZ rather than my local Malaysia.  This cause a problem?

    It is to save the gmail and hotmail sends properly.  Just having problems with my computer and business correspondence which are not mainstream, but have been well until the new laptop to work and win 8.

    2 I had restored my backup of emails in mail storage folder, but none of them are picked up by Win Live Mail.  This is very important because it's the last 4 years of work e-mails.

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can help solve these issues.

    Hi Mattkerr,

    I suggest you to uncheck the option to save the messages in the sent items folder. Restart Windows Live Mail, and then check the new option, clickapply , and then click OK.

    Also try to rebuild the Windows Live Mail folder and check if this solves the problem.

    Step 1: Rename the Windows Mail folder and create a new folder

    a. exit Windows Live Mail.

    b. find the folder of Windows Live Mail .

    It is usually located in:

    C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\

    c. right click on the Windows Live Mail folder and then click Rename.

    d. Add old at the end of the name of the folder so that the folder is now named Windows Live Mail.old.

    Step 2: Create a new Windows Live Mail folder and copy the contents of the previous folder.

    a. start Windows Live Mail so that it can automatically create the new Windows Live Mail folder, and then quit Windows Live Mail.

    b. find the new Windows Live Mail folder to confirm that his creation.

    It is usually located in:

    C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Microsoft\

    Note If the new Windows Live Mail folder is compressed, you must unzip this file. To decompress, right click on the Windows Live Mail folder, and then select extract.

    c. open the Windows Mailold live folder.

    d. open the Local folder and copy theaccount {xxxxxxxxxxxxx} .oeaccount . Notice thatxxxxxxxxxxxxx represents numbers or letters.

    e. Paste the file in the Local folder in the new Windows Mail folder (that was created in step 1 of this procedure).

    f. If the following folders are present in the Windows Live Mail.old folder, copy each folder and paste it into the new Windows Mail folder.

    o stationery

    Microsoft o community

    g. close all folders.

    Step 3: Import messages in Windows Mail

    a. start Windows Mail.

    b. import the messages into the previous Windows Mail folder to the new folder. To import the messages, follow these steps.

    i. click file, point to importand then click Message.

    II. click Windows Live Mail in Select a programand then click Next.

    III. click Browse, select the Windows Live Mail.oldlocation and then click Next.

    IV. click all folders inSelect the folderand then click Next.

    v. click Complete, and then the messages will be imported in file imported.

    c. place the messages that have been imported into any folder to the folder appropriate under the Local folder. For example, move messages in the Inbox under the imported folder folder to the folder Inbox under Local folder.

    d. check if blocked messages are deleted. If this is not the case, try to send or delete messages.

    If the problem still persists, then I suggest you to post the same question in the Windows Live Mail forum for more help on this issue.
