I don't want to use my microsoft account to sign inany help from anbybody?

I followed the link, tried to reset my password by requesting forgot my password providing my email address the one is linked to that account, and said a link been emailed to my inbox. checked my inbox there was nothing in there, waited for hours, nothing in there, the next day I found an email with a link to reset your password, I clicked it, it says "sorry the link has expired" it seems to be a timed link. I don't know why it took too long to receive the email, I thought it should be instantaneously. but it didn't happen that way. so I didn't try another attempt till I ask for why it happened?

  • Can't connect to Azure Win 8.1 Enterprise virtual computer via RDP with Microsoft Account but Local Account

    Hello Community,
    I have Problems to connect to a virtual Computer on Windows Azure. But only when I host a Windows 8.1 Enterprise Computer in Azure. When I use a Windows Server 2012 R2 virtual Computer I can connect without Problems. Also when I use a Local Account on my
    Windows 8.1 Enterprise Laptop at home with which I want to connect to the virtual computer, I can connect to the machine. But when I use a Microsoft Account on my Laptop it fails with "Authentification failure"
    I hope anybody can help me. Thanks in advance :)

  • TS1398 I cannot join with a nearby Wi-Fi network.  We have wi-fi in our apt. and our IBM laptop is connecting with no problem; but, when I try to use my iPod touch, the wi-fi is locked and asks for a password.  I do not know it.

    How do I join with the network that is in our apt?  The iPod asks for a password and I do not have one.  What to do?

    You have to enter the correct password to connect.
    Ask the person who setup the router for the password.

  • Can't login to Skype with Microsoft account

    Hello!
    My problem is I can't login to Skype (website and program both) with Microsoft account. When I try to login to Skype on website, it says: There is a problem signing in with Microsoft account. Please try again or sign in with Skype details instead.
    Please help me, I tried so many things and nothing works...

    And me. And I tried to reset my password by getting the "password token" emailed to me. Once received I clicked on the link to reset my password and it told me that my "password token wasn't recognized" and to enter it manually. I did that, going as far as to cut and paste the token, and it wasn't "recognized" again.
    And when I was able to sign in, I couldn't get any new contacts, even though I knew they were presently signed in.
    Bring back Windows Live!

    If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
    If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account.

    I purchased some movies off iTunes from my account (but from my father IPad) to download as a gift,
    but didn't realize he can not view if not logged in with my account.
    Is there any way to save directly to the IPad (regardless of account) so he can view?
    Or transfer to his account?
    Or is any was to cancel the recent purchase if can not transfer as I will not watch these myself?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes
    Peace, Clyde

    I am trying to change my email address for an Apple ID and it is saying that it is already in use. I then sign in with that Apple ID and it says that the account is not set up yet, I don't want to set up the account, but I do want to use the email address in my original Apple ID! HELP!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

    Hi Glenn,
    You need to Authorize your Mom's computer to your iTunes sign on. Sign on to iTunes, then go to Store at the top of the screen, and select Authorize this Computer.
    Then you can download your purchases from your iTunes library by going to the iTunes Store (the one in the sidebar), Music, and then under Quick Links, Purchased.
    Once the Purchased window comes up, select "Not on this Computer", and then select All Songs. Your purchased songs will display with a cloud next to them, and you can download them selectively or "Download All" (lower right-hand corner).
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

  • Sign in with Microsoft account not responding

    I have problem with skype sign in with Microsoft account. When I click on sign in with Microsoft account, in version 7 skype freezes and not respond and in version 6 it stays in loading and not respond. I tried to uninstall completely and reinstall, delete the share.xml and all of the available solutions. None of them have worked! It's worth to mention that I have no problem with Android version.

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool.
    Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
    Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • Login to WebApi (MVC + WebApi) with Microsoft Account from Windows Store App

    Hi
    How can I access a WebApi Controller (ASP.NET MVC+WebApi) that is secured with Microsoft Account from a Windows Store App?
    I have no idea how to login. I tried the LiveSDK but this gives me only access to OneDrive, Callender and so on.
    Could someone please point me in the right direction.
    Thanks
    Guenter

    Hi Guenter,
    To be clear, you are using Microsoft account as login and at same time you have your own REST service for other functionalities?
    Let's say if you login with LiveSDk, you should be able to get some access token, see this for more information:
    Signing users in, after that use the token to access your REST service, as I understand REST service is a kind of http request, we can use HTTPClient to request data from the address.
    I'm afraid there is no existing sample here but the only thing I found is HTTPClient sample:
    https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/HttpClient-sample-55700664, you can use POST to send your token information to the server.

  • Do I need an account with Microsoft (or AOL, etc.) if I use Firefox??

    Must I have an account with Microsoft (or AOL or whoever) if

    Why am I making a monthly payment to Microsoft if all I

    I use Windows Vista.

    Can I change all emails to Firefox?? How?
