Blocked hotmail account

Hey i was wondering if anyone know's  a solution,    a while ago i tried to accsess my hotmail account to find HOTMAIL wanted account confirmation details
It was years ago that i set the account, and i can't rember all the details i used as i didn't use my correct D.O.B as i wont submit that online... they blocked the account....
The problem is when ever i come to use Mail on my macbook pro, it keeps asking for the password, obviousley  it keeps bouncing back as incorrect... (due to being blocked)... 
I have removed the account details.. as instructed... in Accounts Preferences.... but it keeps prompting the password..... Grrrrrr
Any suggestions would be appreceated..   and thank you for taking time to read this.

  • Hotmail account is blocked on iPad

    I have found that my hotmail account has been blocked, and cannot send any mail. Each time I try to mail, it is requesting my password. As it was many years since I set up the account, I do not know what it is. Can anyone tell me how I go about changing my password, as I don't know how to do it?
      Thanks in advance.

  • You block my hotmail account for the second time

     you don't have the right to block my hotmail account for the second time and for no reason.
    you have the worst customer service system ever, it's not respectable.
    I think my new E-mail will not be with you.

    Lots of Mikes in this thread!  
    MichaelRizk: I dont speak or write Arabic so hopefully you can understand an English response. 
    This is the TechNet Website Feedback forum, and here we know things about the TechNet Website and the TechNet Subscription.  Microsoft has a lot of products and a lot of separate teams that work on those products.  
    The link Mike provided for you is exactly where you need to go to get help, and where you have the best chance to get an explanation for whatever happened to your Hotmail account.  Here we don't know anything about Hotmail.
    Good luck!

  • TS3276 I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails to people in my address book. Hotmail advised me to change my password for that account, which I did. Why won't mail recognise the new password?

    I have recently had a problem with one of my hotmail accounts, some sort of virus sending random emails from my address book. Hotmail advised me to delete all contacts and change the password for that account, which I did on my laptop running windows XP. The change was successful and I was able to send and receive emails with no problem. I then had to change the account password on my iPhone 4s, which I did and it too was successful but when I came to change the password on my iMac, running the latest version of Lion it would not recognise the new password. I have tried to remove the account details and re-install but every time I go to add new account my old details are in the box. This is very frustrating as I use my iMac for all my profects and I need to access my email. Please help.

    hi guys,
    I had already deleted all reference to the hotmail account in question from the keychain access app, I have also tried to delete and re-instal the account details from within mail. The icon in the side bar dissapears but when I go to Add Account, the old account details are in the new account box. I then input my new password but am told that the server does not recognise it. If I access hotmail via google on the iMac I can get into my account with no problems. I am thinking there must be some other form of security system within the mac software that is blocking the new password. This is driving me nuts. I have been trying to resolve this for the last two days. Thank you for your advise anyway.

  • How do I get past "Unable to Verify Hotmail Account Information" on iPad2?  Can't retrieve my Hotmail e-mails from my iPad, Help!

    Bought a new iPad2 with wi-fi access.  I am at home on my wi-fi network using iPad.  Trying to add my Hotmail account to the iPad so I can retrieve my e-mail messages.  When I try to add the Hotmail e-mail account to the iPad, I select Windows Live Hotmail on the iPad.  I then enter my Hotmail e-mail address and Hotmail password in the iPad.  The iPad then says Verifying.  Then a box pops up saying "Hotmail Account, Unable To Verify Account Information".  I spent about an hour on the phone with iPad support and they tried everything they could to no avail.  iPad support said I would need to contact Hotmail support.  I have learned that Hotmail does not have a support phone number that you can call, only a search area that is of no help.  I am able to log onto my Hotmail e-mail account no problem on my regular computer.  I was able to program my wife's Comcast.net e-mail into the iPad no problem and bring up her e-mail on the iPad.  I can not get past the "Unable to verify Hotmail Account Information" message on the iPad.  Frustrated, want to be able to retrieve my Hotmail e-mail messages from my iPad, please help!  Thank you.

    My hotmail was working properly until one month ago , then I do not what happens ... My mistake has been to cancel that account and try to re-load it... I am blocked at "unable to verify account details".
    I read and follow carefully all your steps here above but it is not working!!
    I also try to ask securiry code to mocrosoft and put it instead of hotmail password when creating new Ipad account but nothing.
    I try to go everywhere on microsfot pages and on my mail account setting but I can not find any help from there. From PC is working
    I try to choose "other" from the list of account and insert there hotmail account, both indicated adsHOTMAIL or OUTLOOK, but in this case it tells me "username or password for POP3.live.com are uncorrect.... what is POP3.live.com??
    I already try everything find in the net here and elsewhere ... I have hotmail account since years can not thik to change it .... Some other help?? Some indication I have not yet try?
    Why does not appear OUTLOOOK from the choice of default account in the "add account section"????!??!????

  • How can i remove my mail (hotmail) account on my ipad? Dont want everybody using my pad to enter my mail thank tou

    I enter my data to go directly in my hotmail when im on my pad.  But i dont want want everybody to go on my hotmail account when they using my ipad.  How i can block them or erase my account?
    Thank you

    Go to Settings, mail, and you should see something for hotmail at the top.  when you click on it,it opens another screen that will have a delete button at the bottom.   Just hit that delete button and it will remove the ability of someone looking at your email when they click the mail app.
    You cant really block others from lookng at it if you allow them to use your ipad.

  • Cant access hotmail account

    I can not access my hotmail account from my home connection (ethernet). I have tried to use foxfire instead of safari, does not work, and I have changed system security preferences to "always allow cookies" and don't block pop ups" still no success. I have also put the mail.live.com in the allow box. I have also empted the cache, and reloaded the webpage, still no success.
    quite strange because my gmail account works,

    yes you are right, I guess this will make me change over my email..
    foxfire says address not found, even when I go to the hotmail link from the msn website.
    safari; i can get to the login page but when i click login: it starts loading (blank screen) and just stays blank
    I downloaded msn messenger for mac, I hopes i could get to my hotmail account. I can get to the hotmail account and see the mail, but can't open it.

  • Blocked Skype account

    I lost use of my Skype on my MacBook since mid-July and the support team they have there has been useless. I can get it on my iPhone just fine, but Skype is more effecient on my laptop. I've talked with a lot of people on the site, but they say they cannot restore the program to my laptop. I asked why. Here is the reason they claimed:
    "We are sorry to inform you that we cannot make changes on your account for you to sign in to Skype using your Mac OS device.
    Our filters indicate that your Skype account is using a computer network that has been previously used for fraudulent activity in which we cannot disclose as to what fraudulent activity would that be as we only have limited permission to view such account information."
    I felt like they needed to supply some proof, so here's what they said a couple weeks later.
    "Your device cannot be unblocked because there were other multiple accounts used to sign in to that device which are blocked due to spam and this is the reason why that particular device is restricted."
    Now, what is THAT supposed to mean? I have never sent any sort of spam to anyone while messaging them, so it seems ridiculous they won't supply substantial evidence. They keep wanting me to use other devices (and other computers -- I only have this one laptop).
    Can someone of better use help me here??

    I've got exactly the same problem.
    I linked my microsoft account and my Skype account and i also loged in my xbox one. The problem is that since that day i can't log in again with my skype/hotmail account. I sent a mail to the customer service and they answered me with that message:
    Estimado Raúl,
    Lamentamos informarle de que el error que está experimentando se debe a una restricción indefinida de su cuenta que no podemos revocar. Dicha restricción se ha llevado a cabo por motivos de seguridad y lamentablemente cualquier producto que tuviese aún activo en su cuenta ha sido eliminado.
    Le sugerimos que abra una nueva cuenta de Skype para poder acceder a los muchos servicios que tenemos para ofrecerle.
    Atentamente,
    María B.
    Departamento de Atención al cliente de Skype"
    As you can see (yes, i know it's in spanish) María told me that it's a restriction that they can't revoke :S
    How can I unlink (or recover) my hotmail account from the skype account?
    If you want more information i can send you my microsoft address via private message.
    Thanks!

  • Emails won't send from Hotmail account on iphone as message says password is incorrect

    I recently had a problem with my hotmail account which meant it was blocked and I had to go through a securitiy process to unblock my account and change my password. I can now use my hotmail account again and changed the password on my phone settings to be able to use this account on my phone again. However, when I try to send emails from my iphone from my hotmail account, it says my password is incorrect and the emails won't send. I am also not convinced that I am receiving all emails, although some came through when I initially re-added the account. I have tried to delete the account and add it again, as well as restart my iphone, but I am still having the same problem. The password I have for the account is correct! I would be so grateful if anyone could help.
    Thanks.

    For anyone else having this problem I have found a solution! You need to change the outgoing server settings as well as the incoming server password which appears on the main settings page. Go into the account in settings and select the box under outgoing mail server. Click on the box under primary server. This will take you to the settings, including the password which you can change.

  • I can't open my Hotmail account in Firefox

    I think I know what my problem is but I don't know how to fix it. I attempted to delete unauthorized contacts in my contact list on one of my Hotmail accounts, and I think I messed up the default settings. Since then, I've been unable to access the account even though I can sign into my other 2 linked accounts on Firefox and on the blocked one in IE. I've optimized the browser by following some of the suggestions here, but still no luck. I'm currently running version 3.6.17.
    How can I possibly restore the settings to this account if I'm unable to access it? I'm fairly certain this is the problem because this didn't happen before I tried to delete those contacts (which didn't have a delete option, obviously). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot.

    Hello to everyone
    Thank you all so much to all of you for the prompt reply!
    Sorry I did try all your ideas, but I stil can't open Hotmail-account and
    I can't send, reply any hotmail-emails, when I click on a message in my Inbox the message doesn't open.

    JavaScript is enabled .
    I'm not infected with malware, I use Norman Security Suite Viruses and Spyware.

    I used Hotmail with Firefox for years with no problem.
    Starting about 2 weeks i can't sign into my hotmail account through firefox;
    I open firefox, then hotmail, put my adress, and then there's this page:
    A password isn't enough ...
    I click on the "SAVE"-button", it does not work.
    It works well in IE.
    I did remove the cookies,
    by 'View Cookies' there is this cookie: "answers microsoft com"",
    and i cannot remove this cookie.
    (I have firefox on "Never remember history")
    I also did use the the refresh button and the ''Shift'' key, it doesn't work :-(
    By Pressing Ctrl+Shift+Del , totally nothing happens. Please help me.
    Thank you so much for your help!! My english language is not good, that's why my reply takes a long time. Sorry for that.
    I wish you all a wonderful evening from Holland.

    I was having trouble sending to hotmail accounts from my Earthlink account, they had me go into Mac Mail preferences and make changes (because they claimed it was Mac Mail's fault, even though the hotmail error code said it's because Earthlink is blocked by hotmail), now Mac Mail doesn't work AT ALL - any help changing the settings back to correct Mac Mail settings? I can provide a transcript of the entire tech chat session, if that will help...

    both apostrophes are used correctly, thanks
    doesn't = does not (this is called a contraction)
    it's = it is
    Mac Mail's fault = possessive
    any help with the actual issue? thanks!

  • I CANNOT ACCESS MY HOTMAIL ACCOUNT AND IT'S TELLLING ME TO USE AN OLD YAHOO ACCOUNT. I RECEIVED ONE SECURITY NO. OF 6 DIGITS TO RESET. NOW IT SHOULD BE 9 DIGITS

    for some strange reason my hotmail account was blocked and I cannot retrieve my e mails which is extremely frustrating. I have tried resetting numerous times with my yahoo but it keeps using my old yahoo address which went out with the ark

    Last but not least, for the site that has the problem:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Clear Firefox's Cache
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can open the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Why cant I open any messages or emails from my Hotmail account when using Firefox browser but works fine using IE browser

    When I open my Hotmail account while using Firefox as my browser I am unable to open any email in both Inbox and Junk. I can reload either one and it will sometimes work for a short time. However if I switch to Internet Explorer browser it all works great.

    Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.
