Problems with Windows Live Mail send/recieve after upgrading Firefox

I recently upgraded Firefox and since then I get this:
An unknown error has occurred.
Server: 'smtp.frontier.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80070057
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No

have you tried using imap instead?
if you can access your email from the web page then sounds more like a problem with windows live mail and not your BT account

Iphone 3GS - windows 7 - syncing problems with windows live mail

I brought a new iphone 3gs last week and tried to sync it with my new dell PC running windows 7 (with windows live mail).
It wouldnt sync, so I read the forums and reset the sync history through itunes.
This worked, and synced my iphone to the computer. It appears to have backed up all my contacts on the iphone to somewhere on the PC (cant find where) but it hasnt copied the contacts from windows live mail to the iphone
Have I confused anyone??

Problems with windows live mail

Hi there,
Today I received my blackberry 8520, but i've got one problem with my windows live mail account. I only receive the e-mails on my live account after i checked them on my computer.
I did receive an announcement that when i use an e-mailclient, in my situation microsoft outlook, i have to change the settings of this client. If the client doesn't save my e-mails on the server, blackberry is unable to deliver them to my device.
I unsterstand the problem but i can't solve it. Is there anybody who knows how to solve my problem?
Many thanks,
Chantal

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
Outlook has settings that dictate what it does when you have it grab your email from the server. The location is variable depending on Outlook version...I can only give you the steps for my version (2K7). From within Outlook:
Tools > Account Settings > select the account > Change > More Settings > Advanced
On that screen, you must change the "Delivery" options so that the messages are left on the server for BIS to be able to retrieve them. BIS grabs email every 15 minutes. If you have Outlook running and have it grabbing email every 5 minutes AND have it (via this screen) removing the email from the server when it does so, then there will be nothing for BIS to grab when it makes its next scheduled attempt. You need to change these settings to something that allows BIS to have something to grab from the server when it tries.
What to set these to is a function of your needs and your email providers policies. Typically, if you set Outlook to Leave messages on the server yet remove them after 1 day, you can stay within all needs and policies.
Hope that helps!

Problems with Windows Live Mail Beta

Hello all.
I can't seem to view any email messages in Safari using the new light version of Windows Live Mail Beta. I can view the inbox page fine but when I click on a subject to view a message, I see an error page saying 'Safari Cannot Load The Page' and something about a bad server response. Emptying the cache doesn't make a difference and I can view my mail fine in Firefox on the full version of the beta.
Any suggestions? Many thanks...

Have you tried it with Firefox? Windows live search (maps) will not work with either Safari or Firefox in my experience. Give it time and maybe it will but Microsoft if not very flexible in making there sites friendly with other browsers.

BT Yahoo Compatibility with Windows Live Mail

Hi Everyone,
I have two computers (Laptop - Vista [32], and my desktop Windows 7 [64 bit]) and I have been using Windows Live Mail (Part of Windows Essentials) for many years!
Until recently, I have not experienced any problems downloading my e-mail messages; problems, only started to occur when I transferred from Talktalk, to BT Infinity!
Regularly since the transfer, whenever I send/receive, I get a messages, advising, either
"enter your password",
or
"incorrect password user name"
I have 5 e-mail accounts, and frequently, I get these message for all 5 of these accounts!
Two things, I find interesting, are that when this problem occurs:
(1)        It occurs, simultaneously, with both the laptop, and my desktop! (I have switched, each of in turn, to rule out mutual interference)!
(2)        I get a message, several minutes later, from the BT software "BT Broadband Desktop Help", advising "An E-mail Issue Detected" and I am given the option to FIX! If I choose this option, a report comes up, advising that there are no BT accounts on this computer!
Today, for example, I found that I could not download messages, for some 3 hours, continuously!
However, I found that I could log in to BT Yahoo, and see my messages, on line! (Same e-mail address and passwords)
Several times, I have contacted BT, and each time, let them take control of my PC, to investigate. Every time, they have played around, and established that everything is in order!
Today, I again contacted BT, and again, they checked everything out, and verified everything was in order, and they verified that my messages could not be downloaded!
At no time, would the BT specialist admit, that the problem could be at the BT end.
I suspect that with BT Infinity, which is very fast, that my interrogation(Send/Receive) is too fast for their mail account to respond, when the network is busy!
The BT representative, today, admitted that he had tried everything he knew, and therefore was not able to help further; if I wanted further technical assistance, I would have to pay for it!
Given that on many occasions:
(1)          I do not have a problem downloading my messages!
(2)          When I do have a problem, it occurs on two computers (including (2) above)
I can only conclude that the problem is at the BT end (My broadband connection is perfect), and that the BT software "BT Broadband Desktop Help, is a bag of nails!
I would interested in any comments, especially from BT

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
There is actually no compatibility problems with Windows Live Mail, and actually the speed of your connection isn't too fast for the mail servers.
However a couple of months ago or slightly more, there were serious email access issues affecting pop3 client program such as WLM (and all the others like Outlook, Thunderbird etc). As you've noticed, it did not affect access via webmail (logging in via BTYahoo!).
The problem seems to have resurfaced over the past couple of days for some (I have seen the problem), so it's a server issue and not an end user one.
You may like to try altering the mail server addresses in WLM as indicated in my shortcuts option 0d/h (see link below). That has fixed it for many people. (Accounts/Properties/Servers tab - Incoming mail/Outgoing mail, alter both these and the Email username should be the full email address). It is easy to alter back, and only the servers need changing.

IS PSE8 compatible with Windows Live Mail

Before installing W7+WLM I was able to share my photos using the "Photo Mail" feature with Outlook Express.
Now in W7, I use Windows Live Mail (since OE seems to be replaced with this email program) but I'm not able to use it to send photo emails.
After selecting the photos in the "photo mail" feature, and right before the photo email is supposed to pop up, I get this error message:
"Elements Organizer could not finish creating your E-mail message.
Alternatively, you can use the Adobe E-mail Service via the Elements Organizer Preferences dialog."
In the preference/sharing tab, I get two options: "Windows Mail" and "Adobe Mail"; I do not see "Windows Live Mail".
What am I doing wrong?

Thank for your reply, V.
You are implying that Windows Live Mail is not supported by PSE8... is this the case?

FIOS Email: Doesn't work with Windows Live Mail?

I have follow the instructions posted in mid April 2015 for changing the email settings and they do not work at all with Windows Live Mail.
Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon (text deleted by me) account. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages, you'll be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.
Server Error: 0x800CCC90
Server Response: -ERR [AUTH] Authentication failed
Server: 'pop.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC92
Protocol: POP3
Port: 995
Secure(SSL): Yes
I am using the exact same identical password I used successfully to access webmail. I confirmed the port settings of 995 (incoming) and 465 (outgoing) are being used in the set up. I noticed various versions of Outlook (Express, 2010, etc) have instructions posted here but not Windows Live Mail. Do the new settings not work on the client?

Update: I did find the instructions posted at http://www.verizon.com/Support/Residential/Announcements/general-announcements01.htm?CMP=EMC-CVZ_ZZ_... and they DO NOT WORK
Followed them to the letter step by step and still cannot access when using Webmail. Here is the response:
Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon account. An incorrect password was entered. The next time you send or receive messages, you'll be asked to enter your user name and password for this account.
Server Error: 0x800CCC90

Contacts Sync with Windows Live Mail 2011

I'm using Windows 7 with the Windows Live Mail 2011 desktop application for email and contacts. Is it possible to sync the contacts in my Windows Live Mail 2011 application with my iPhone (iOS v4) using iTunes?
In Windows Vista, I used Windows Mail which stored contacts data in the Contacts folder within my profile (c:\users\username\contacts). These contacts did sync with my iPhone without any problems. Windows 7 doesn't have an email application built-in so, I'm using Windows Live Mail 2011. Windows Live Mail 2011 doesn't store contacts in the Contacts folder within my profile though. Is there anyway to sync my iPhone with my Windows Live Mail 2011 contacts?
Thanks,
Matt

Found this with a quick Google search:
To sync contacts with your computer, choose Sync Contacts on your Windows-based PC, or Sync Contacts with Address Book on your Mac.
You can sync your contacts with:
* Microsoft Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Outlook 2007 (Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7)
* Windows Address Book (Windows XP and Windows Vista)
* Address Book (Mac OS X v10.4.11 or later)
* Microsoft Entourage 2004 or Microsoft Entourage 2008
So it looks like the answer is no, you can't sync your contacts with Windows Live Mail 2011.

What can I do?

Thanks I thought I was the only who is trying to solve the same problem.

Windows Live Mail doesn't work in Firefox after recent updates to Windows 7. System Restore doesn't help.

Installed around 8 important Windows 7 updates over the past 3 days (so, nothing I could uninstall as they're security updates mainly). Since then, Windows Live Mail doesn't respond in Firefox. Did 2 System Restores and downloaded Live Essentials again but nothing works.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Sync iPod with Windows Live Mail Calender

I know that it is possible to sync a calender with Outlook however I was wondering whether it is possible to do it with Windows Live Mail as it simply does not give me the option.
Thanks

Hi Cnoc,
Welcome to BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Just to clarify, how did you synchronize your Windows Live Contacts with your BlackBerry?
Windows Live is not a supported organizer to sync with using the Blackberry Desktop Software. This is why its not appearing as an option when you're setting up synchronization. http://bbry.lv/lZWDzG
