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

    ID WIndows Live ID is just a login name that you use for Windows Live servers.  It takes the form of an e-mail address.  All Hotmail addresses are identifiers WIndows Live ID.  All live.com addresses are identifiers WIndows Live ID.  You can also use any address as a Windows Live ID, I think that, as long as it's an email address valid and you can receive mail at the address.

    Mail aliases are usually e-mail addresses that map to the same mailbox under another address.  This means that sending mail to one of the alias book that mail to the mailbox.  PC can have aliases in both domain name Service.  This means that several names can map to the same IP address in the domain name service so that we can use one of the aliases to access a particular system.  Somehow, it's no different than a person with aliases.

  • Update Live 2009 and the new version of Windows Live 2011.

    After installing the update of Live software (10.11.2010) Version 2009 (Build 14.0.8117.416) in my computer - and I tried to start Live Gallery, I get the message Photogallery cannot start because lack of MSSQL 2005 COmpact edition.

    As I knew, SQL served also in the previous version. I'm a little afraid to try to install this version, because I already have MSSQL server 2005 installed and used in my accounting program. Install a new version will then often more problems than solve all the problems.

    How to add Live Gallery as a new instance of MSSQL2005? You have the settings to set a manual instance who will work with the photo gallery?

    Next problem:

    Microsoft alert on the old LiveSync program, who work for a long time. I used this for a few years, because I have 3 computers that must be synconized with the same information on the accounting data and documents and photos. This Livesync works very well.

    I should connect on my page of Live Sync yesterday and change the settings. I've been using Live sync for a long time. There I could see Live Sync will stop and set up a new product, mesh. Well, I agreed to install this solution. I used already, windows Live mail and Live messenger, for a time of loooong and very uncomfortable about this products.

    When I installed the new synchronization software, it is also updated my Messenger, the gallery and the mail. But I'm really disappointed... The Messenger is like a huge stone and with a new design and more complicated to see what you're doing. The Gallery is so bad, and the options to display images after the shooting date disappeared. Mail is so heavy and all programs with a HUGE menu of icons all places, with 1000' nds of choice which a normal user does NOT need or want.
     
    The system of mesh must be a better solution after sync Live, but it's so slow and do a lot of bad things in my computer. All my sync folders has been updated with Live Sync, but what a start doing the same thing again, and I had 12000 files update. Soon it started the update, he grabbed 20 GB of my available space in my drive C - from 32 GB to 12 GB, and I was really scared of running out of disk space. After a few our space was getting better, but it stills lost about 10 GB in my hard drive, compared to what I had before installing. The mesh has put a lot of temporary files in users\Appdata\Local\Microsoft'Live Mesh. I start checking all files, files which could be, and after update all the files, it was still about 9 GB left in this folder. My Local low folder is now 292 MB, Local is 4.2 GB and homelessness is 579 MB. But I still wonder where is the last 10 GB which disappear when I install the mesh.
     
    My other computer died in this operation. When I start today, I had a lot of messages on the server mesh was not, and I tried to restart it. But now it's DEAD - I could not power on it. A hard disk will also start default after installation of the mesh, it was a whole new Samsung 1 TB 3.5 inch SATA.
     
    Now my main computer died and I removed all the latest Live Messenger with Essentials on this one, and now it starts acting like a normal computer.
     
    My Gallery is normal again, that my email works normally again. and I decided to stop all kinds of synchronizations from Microsoft. Why if you change a good product that works fine?
     
    I recommend post you pack to download the previous version of Live Messenger and products - and continue to use Live Sync, and people to give a chance to yourself decide how version that should be updated when a new version is available. I had no choice to stop the update for Messenger, Gallery and mail. just a message about this also will be updated. http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Essentials?OS=other must be put on hold until the test is preferable. Live Mesh is dangerous - it kills your computer. This is NOT a final product - put in a BETA version and put on a warning.

  • Windows Live ID and password to enter in conflict with MS Money Plus Deluxe Sunset as well as with MS Money 2007 files.

    For several weeks now, I couldn't access my Money 2007 file.  When I type my Windows Licve ID and password, it says that they are inaccurate, which is not true because I use them all the time to access the internet and my e-mail address.  I went to Microsoft and downloaded Microsoft Money Plus Sunset Deluxe thinking he was support issue with a program abandoned, namely MS Money 2007.  (I'm using Windows XP as my operating system, by the way.)   Well, it wasn't the problem.  Yes, I can get into the new program, but I can't import my existing file of 2007 money in it.  There is always this conflict Live ID and password.  Why is this happening?  I noticed that others had the same problem.  I tried to change my Live ID, nothing helps.  It seems that the ID and password correct combination is incorporated into the backup file and the program does not accept it.  Y at - there a way to UN-embed in the file so it can be accessed and imported?  I have a lot of info and there is no way that I can remember every detail to be reintroduced in the memory.  I need this program!  Help.!

    I recently bought a NEW $ 400 Xbox 360 and I can not change my password to recover my gamertag Russolini11 because the email associated with the account is deleted.  I called 3 times and no one can help me!

    Hi Zack'

    I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think you should have to change your password to recover your gamertag. However, if you have forgotten your password, then that's a different story. Also you should be dealing with xbox live support instead of windows live because they are the one who can access your account. Try xboxlive.com then go support here. I see that you have someone call you.

    I hope this helps.

  • I can't download Windows Live, Skype and AVG antivirus. Problem with firewall or IE 8?

    My Eee PC 1000HE is insalled with Windows XP and Service Pack 3. I tried to download the Windows Live, Skype and AVG antivirus without success because they said that they could not detect my internet connections. I tried it on my workplace and my house so I think this isn't the router issue, it is the configuration on my computer. Also, I discovered that even I have disabled the windows firewall on my computer, the Security Center has always indicated that at least part of the firewall is still on. How to identify and disable firewall? Could this be a problem with IE8? I have to manually configure anything? I thank you and appreciate your help.

    If after your turn off the Windows Firewall, it shows that you have firewall, it means you want running an other firewall? You run any internet security software?

    You can try to reset internet explore (Tools-> internet option-> advance tab, then reset) and see if the problem is resolved. Alternatively, you can try to contact your ISP and ask them for help, they could provide you with the configuration information.

    This error occurs usually when a record has been changed when an update has been performed on your computer. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:


    Important:

    6. If you want to restore a file to the registry, in the Registry Editor window, click file and click Import

    7. navigate to the location and find the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open.

    Hi K - Ann,

    Thank you for the above information.

    I followed you instruction to back up the registry keys, but when I followed step number 7. Navigate to the location and look for the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open, the message of answers that I received from the registry editor has been as follows: -.

    Impossible to import C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner\My Documents\My Backup\Backup260910.reg of register: not all data was successfully written to the registry.  Some keys are open by the system or my other processes.

    So I closed my computer and restarted. I then followed your instructions again (this time save the backup of the registry to a member in the same library, called "Backup260910bkup"

    Yet once, when I followed the number of the step 7. Navigate to the location and look for the name of the file with the .reg extension and click Open, the message of answers that I received from the registry editor has been as follows: -.

    Impossible to import C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner\My Documents\My Backup\Backup260910bkup.reg of register: not all data was successfully written to the registry.  Some keys are open by the system or my other processes.

    Can you tell me what I need to do to work around this problem of backup of the registry?

    I look forward to receiving your response.

    Thank you

    Neil Clark.
