Can't set up Hotmail.

I have a Treo Pro and can't get my Hotmail account up. Go thru the whole auto process and then it just goes back to the start. Even when i log onto windows live thru explorer it does not come up, message comes up I must enable cookies. Cookies already enabled, also says to go into setup and enter windows live into trusted sites, i can't find how to get into this area to do this, Can anyone help?

Hotmail is a web based email account so you cannot setup an account in the email application on the Treo.
On page 155 of the user guide are the instructions on accessing Hotmail/Windows live.
For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.

There are links on the page to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.

How can I set up hotmail on my iphone? i need some advice please..

i can't set up hotmail on my iphone.. please can someone tell me how to do that. thankyou..

Is it a paid account or a free account?
The free accounts can not be set up on the iPhone because the free Hotmail accounts do not user one of the two email server standards, POP3 or IMAP (it uses a proprietary HTTP protocol) which the iPhone requires.
You will need to upgrade to one of the paid hotmail accounts before you can get POP3 access for your email.

How can I set up hotmail in the mail application

Hi
How can I set the mail application to include hotmail? I've been able to add it, but it doesn't sync read and unread messages. I know iPhones used to have the same problem, but after iOS5, there was an option to include mail from hotmail. Is there an option to include hotmail now in Mail, as I can't find it.
Also, as I've just switched from Windows to Mac, is there a button on Mac for home and end like Windows has?
Thanks

Unfortunately hotmail requires you to pay a fee to have your e-mail go through a mail application, like Apple Mail. Contact their customer service to see about fees, as well as set up process.

Can't set up hotmail.co.uk with mac mail

Hello everyone, and thanks for your patience as I know very similar queries have been answered already in previous discussions.
I have just bought my first mac after years of pc use.
I would love to be able to access my hotmail.co.uk account through mac mail on os x tiger.
However, despite following all previous posts as accurately as I possibly can, this still won't work. For this reason, I have transcribed absolutely everything I enter into the account setup below, to see if anyone can see where I keep going wrong.
I have downloaded httpmail (http://www.automagic-software.com/products.php) as suggested on previous posts.
Also as suggested on a previous discussion, I have set mail to run using rosetta, to help deal with any complications I may face using my intel macbook.
My email address is [email protected]
Now, when I go to set up my account on mail, I enter:
PAGE 1: GENERAL INFORMATION
Account type: httpmail
Account description: Hotmail acccount
Full name: Alistair White
Email address: [email protected]
PAGE 2: INCOMING MAIL SERVER
Incoming mail server: www.hotmail.co.uk
Username: awhitetbn
Password: ******
I am then presented with the account summary:
Account description: Hotmail account
Full name: Alistair White
Email address: [email protected]
Username: awhitetbn
Incoming mail server: www.hotmail.co.uk
SSL: off
Outgoing mail server: services.msn.com:awhitetbn
SSL: off
Next page: Conclusion: a new account has been created.
Ok! All seems well, so I send a test email. However, I get the following message:
Cannot send message using the server services.msn.com:awhitetbn
Use the pop-up menu below to try a different outgoing mail server.
However, in the pop-up menu, the only option I have is:
send message using: HTTPmail:awhitetbn
I would dearly love this to work and I sense I am not far from the solution... If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. Where am I going wrong?
Many many thanks
Alistair White

Hi there...
Setting up hotmail with mac mail isnt as straight forward as some other external email clients...Here are the instructions.
Access a Hotmail Account with Mac OS X Mail
To access a MSN Hotmail account with Mac OS X Mail:
›› Step by Step Screenshot Walkthrough
Make sure you have an MSN Hotmail Plus subscription for the Hotmail account you want to access in Mac OS X Mail.
Install httpmail for Mac OS X Mail.
Select Mail | Preferences... from the Mac OS X Mail menu.
Go to the Accounts category.
Click the + ("Create an account.") button.
Make sure httpmail is selected as the Account Type:.
Enter "Hotmail" (or something similar) as the Description: for this account.
Type your Hotmail address (something like "[email protected]") under Email Address:.
Enter your name under Full Name:.
Make sure the Incoming Mail Server: is set to "hotmail.com".
Enter your Hotmail user name ("hmmzl", for example) under User Name:.
Type your MSN Hotmail password under Password:.
Select None under Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP):.
Close the Accounts window.
Click Save.
Good Luck.

Can't set up Hotmail Account - Account Setup Freezes midway through

I have a HotmailPlus account, and I've downloaded the httpmail plug-in, and I'm still having trouble setting up my hotmail account in Mail. At the point where I enter the incoming mail server (hotmail.com), then my username and password, the program says, "Checking connection" then stops. It's only possible from there to cancel, I can't continue.
Anyone have any ideas?

Okay, I figured out the solution to my own problem. I am running Tiger (10.4.3), and I had downloaded the 1.46 version of httpmail, which wasn't working even though it works for some people on the boards. So, I downloaded the Tiger version, and it works! Yippee! One small annoying problem solved!
Thanks.

Can't set up hotmail account

Hi
Got new phone today and am trying to set up email. I don't have the option to create or add an email address and I only have I want to use a work email account with a BB Enterprise Server. What should I do?
Thanks

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
To use the proprietary RIM Push email capability, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have Personal Email added to the email setup wizard.

How can I set my Iphone 4s to delete hotmail from phone but NOT server at home?

I can't seem to figure out how to set phone so that I can delete messages (hotmail) from phone but have them remain on server (home computer)? I've had to recently delete and then re set my hotmail account and when I did this, I seem to have lost the ability to delete from phone and save on home computer. thanks

You're using an IMAP account. Not sure if you can set up hotmail as a POP account.

Since ios 6 update hotmail fetches or push on its own. I have hotmail set to manual. Best I can tell its only hotmail and not yahoo. Is this a known problem? How do I make hotmail stop checking for mail when I have it set to manual?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

Hi,
I installed iCloud PC control panel. I tried to sync my contacts and calendars from Outlook (2007) to the cloud but I gets this message: "Add an e-mail account to Outlook Before setting up iCloud". I have an Hotmail account synced up into my Outlook via Outlook Connector. Can iCloud sync with Hotmail accounts?
What should I do to get my calendars and contacts synchronize to the cloud. Does Outlook 2007 can be synced by the cloud too?
How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

I found a way to fix this, it did the trick for me:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3109623
All you have to do is include a new e-mail account [email protected] (set it as a default) on Outlook with the options that are showed in the thread I linked and you should have the calendars and tasks syncronised. It works perfectly with ipod touch, ipad and Outlook 2010 on windows 7.

How can I set up multiple email accounts on my nok...

Just got the E71x, it's awesome. I set up my Hotmail account on my Mail for Exchange or whatever that app is called. Can I set up my Gmail account as well? That's the more important account of the two. How do I set this up?

NME is a good alternative. In the beginning it was bugy and I stopped taking it onwards in my future considerations. Nowadays it is grown to a serious service. Def. something to count in your options!
