How To: Setup Hotmail as a POP3

If you have a Windows Live Hotmail Plus subscription, you can use a POP3 (POP3, or Post Office Protocol 3, is a protocol that's used to retrieve e-mail from a mail server.) server to add your Windows Live Hotmail account to Microsoft Outlook Express and access messages there. If you download and install Windows Live Mail, you can add your Windows Live Hotmail account to Windows Live Mail and access your messages and contacts there.
Use a POP3 server to add your Windows Live Hotmail account to Outlook Express
1: In Outlook Express, click the Tools menu, and then click Accounts.
2: Click Add, and then click Mail.
3: Type your name, and then click Next.
4: Type your full Windows Live Hotmail e-mail address, and then click Next.
5: Enter the following information, and then click Next:
- In the My incoming mail server is a box, click POP3.
- In the Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server box, type pop3.live.com.
- In the Outgoing mail (SMTP) server box, type smtp.live.com
6: Type the account name and the password for your Windows Live Hotmail account. Clear the Remember password check box unless you're the only person with access to the computer. Make sure that the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) check box isn't selected.
7: Click Next, and then click Finish.
8: In the Internet Accounts window, click the Mail tab, click the Windows Live Hotmail account that you added, and then click Properties.
9: Click the Advanced tab, under Server Port Numbers, enter the following information, and then click OK:
- In the Incoming server (POP3) box, type 995.
- In the Outgoing server (SMTP) box, type 25.
- Under both Outgoing mail (SMTP) and Incoming mail (POP3), select the This server requires a secure connection (SSL) check box.
10: Click Close.

I just started the setup process for my Hotmail account on my iPhone (3G). After entering my email address and password, it immediately said:
"pop3.live.com
A Windows Live Hotmail Plus subscription is required to use Hotmail accounts with Mail. Visit get.live.com/mailplus/features for details. You can also access your Hotmail account on the web at mail.live.com."
(I have a Hotmail "Plus" account, so I'm golden there.)
After hitting "Next", it verified everything, and all seems to be well. I'm now easily able to use my Hotmail account. I did not have to do anything additional. This is my 1st iPhone, so I'm not sure when Apple actually changed the Hotmail "install" method (2.1?), but it's much easier than it used to be in order to set it up (see here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1126292 ). The only downside is that I'm only able to see my "Inbox", and not my other folders (another issue discussed in the above mentioned link).
I hope this helps!

How to setup hotmail account in Apple Mail?

Just got a new 17" MBP... however I'm not sure how to setup my hotmail account in Apple Mail.

You need to set it up as a POP account. Use the following details:
*POP server:* pop3.live.com (Port 995)
*POP SSL required?* Yes
*User name:* Your Windows Live ID, for example [email protected]
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows Live
*SMTP server:* smtp.live.com (Port 25)
*Authentication required?* Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
*TLS/SSL required?* Yes
(Taken from this WindowsLive support page.)

How do I setup hotmail to utilize IMAP in Mac Mail OSX 10.6?

How do I setup my OSX 10.6.7 Mail program to run Hotmail through IMAP without the installation of seperate programs?
I know the software has the capabilities but I cannot figure out how to add the account in manually without it doing it automatically without the option to add it manually.
Please help.
*Please do not recommend installing other apps, as I am not interested in that.*
Thank you.

I don't know how to configure hotmail, you'll have to ask them.
I also don't know if this will work with a hotmail account, but you can stop the automatic account creation by holding down the option key when you click the Continue button in the Mail account setup. From there, you can manually create an IMAP account using the hotmail servers.

How to setup gmail push notification for my iphone 5?

I'm using gmail. Prompt respond for mails is very urgent for me.
How to setup gmail push notification for my iphone 5?

I switched from a BB to an iPhone a few days ago and I knew I was going to miss the QWERTY keyboard but then I also discovered that my GMail doesn't 'push' to my iPhone. I was used to 'push' for all mail accounts on the BB. I also missed being able to personalize text, email, and phone tones for individuals.
I tried the Gmail app for iOS and it does deliver Gmail to the iPhone app quickly but the text is tiny and when it is a web page it's almost impossible to read.
So, I have worked out a kludge to get around these problems.
I added my exisiting Gmail account to the iPhone.
Hotmail does push to iOS 7 so I created a Outlook account (could be hotmail or Live) using the web browser.
I added the hotmail account to the iPhone. I basically use this to give fast notification of important emails on my iPhone.
On my macbook email client I created a rule that 'redirects' incoming mail to the hotmail account. The 'Redirect' is important since the email will show up in the hotmail account on the iPhone as coming from the original sender and you can then respond to the original sender from the iPhone, though the sender will see it as coming from the hotmail account.
The other downside is that you will get a second copy of the email in the gmail inbox on the iPhone, probably 15 minutes later.
If you don't want all of the mail being redirected you can create a 'redirect' group in the Address book and then adjust the rule in Apple mail to only redirect the mail to the hotmail account if the sender is in the redirect group. You can add and delete contacts from this group depending upon which ones you consider to be important. You will still get two copies of the email on the iPhone, one in the hotmail inbox and one in the gmail inbox.
You can prevent this from happening temporarily by turning off, but not deleting, the gmail account on the iPhone. You could then edit the emails on the Apple email client before turning the gmail back on in the iPhone.
And finally if you use the VIP feature in email on the iPhone you can create a list of VIP contacts and then assign a different notification sound for the VIP's. So in effect important contacts mail will be redirect to the iPhone for quick notification and very, very important contacts will have a different notification sound.
I'm basically using the Hotmail account as a notification tool and basically delete all the emails in it since the original copy will be in the gmail account.
And best of all it's all free, except for the bandwidth.

How to setup multiple base station under one network?

How to setup multiple base station under one network? I have 6 rooms but one airport base station makes really difficult to get good signal from every rooms. I wonder if I can setup multiple airport base stations talking to each other under the same network to build up the signal strength will help solve this problem. But, is it possible? How?

One route would be to utilize a "roaming" network. In a roaming network, you would connect multiple AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBS) to the same Ethernet. Of course, this would require that your home is already wired for Ethernet.

How to Setup SSL on Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1..2)

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me How to setup the SSL on Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2).
I have all the required documents like
1. Oracle Application Server Portal Server Configuration Guide.
2. Oracle Application Server Web Cache Configuration Guide.
3. Oracle Application Server SSO Administration Guide.
I tried to follow all this documents but still i am not able to set SSL for Oracle Portal Server.

The Portal Configuration Guide, available on OTN at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/appserver1012.html does provide some very specific information on how to set up OracleAS Portal.
Section 6.3.2.1 Configuring SSL for OracleAS Portal describes various configurations, such as:
SSL to OracleAS Single Sign-On
SSL to OracleAS Web Cache
SSL Throughout OracleAS Portal
External SSL with Non-SSL Within Oracle Application Server
For larger enterprise configurations, you can refer to the Enterprise Deployment Guide.
Can you give a bit more background on what you are trying to set up? Which scenario, what sort of hardware, software versions, and so on.
Regards,
Pete

How to setup a static IP for a wireless printer

This problem has been ongoing for several versions of OS X and the last five printers I've had and I'm finally over messing with it. For some reson, when using a wireless printer with OS X this is a repetetive problem, and I think if I configured the printer to a static IP address instead of using DHCP, it might work better. At least once a week, if not more often, I'll print something and get the ubiquitous Dock error of "Printer is not connected". The printer is still in Preferences, but if I delete it, then it doesn't show up as it should for selection.
The only way to fix this is reboot, and then the printer shows up again in Preferences. I select it and all is well again...until a few days pass and the same thing happens again. Using an HP LaserJet P1102w, still a current model, but it doesn't matter which printer I use. I also have an Epson Artisan 725 and the same thing happens with it about once a week. Also, this happens from both my Mac and my wife's Mac, so it's not an issue with just my machine.
I've searched for documentation on how to setup a static IP address for a wireless printer with the Airport Extreme, but all I find are tutorials on how to do it with an ethernet hard-wired printer. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could set up your router to do manual assignment of IP address instead of using DHCP, but that is a PITA, because then you'd have to manually set up IP for all your devices.
If you have AirPOrt Extreme, you could do this:
In your Apple TV, go to the Settings >> About and write down the MAC address of your ATV
Start up the AiPort Admin Utility
Go to Network tab
click + in the DHCP reservations
Choose an IP you want for your ATV & Enter the MAC address
From now on, this IP address will be reserved to the MAC address and only your ATV will be able to get it, no other device will.
It is not a static IP in a true sense, but behaves just like one.
Works great for me...
If you don't have a AP Extreme, I'm sure other routers will allow you do reservations too.
