Having problems setting up hotmail on my iphone 4

i upgraded to the iphone 4 on 02 2 months or so ago. Since then i have not been able to set up hotmail on it. It accepts my yahoo mail no problem at all. But hotmail is my main account. After i have put in the details it asks for which is name, address, password and description ( that automatically turns to hotmail)i click the next button. It then says verifying . A box then appears which says "cannot get mail" the username or password for "pop3.live.com is incorrect. now i have tried it so many times so i know that my email address and password are fine! im stuck now and not a clue how to fix this.

Quoted from Microsoft:
Setup Hotmail through the Mail option on your Home screen
If this is the first e-mail account you'll be setting up on your phone:
* 1. Locate the mail icon on your phone's main screen
* 2. On the Add Account page, select Other and enter your Windows Live ID and password
If you have already set up an e-mail account on your phone:
* 1. Locate the Setting icon on your phone's main screen
* 2. Locate the Mail, Contacts, Calendars option
* 3. Under Accounts, choose Add Account and select Other
* 4. Enter your Windows Live ID and password
Are those the directions you followed?

Having problems setting up homesharing on my iPhone! Help!

To set up homesharing on my iPhone, it tells me to go to the "iPod" section of the settings app. But there is no such section in my settings app, so how on earth am I supposed to set it up?!

Great! Now make sure you have iTunes running on your laptop and it is not in sleep mode.
On the iPhone tap on the 'Music' icon. Now Tap on the 'More' icon located along the bottom of the screen. Next tap on the 'Shared' item on the list, it will be the last item. Your iPhones music list is selected by default. You will also see listed any Home Shares available on your network. In your case you should see the iTunes library on your laptop.Just select it and wait for it to load all the music and playlists from your laptop's music library. You shouls now be able to play all the music stored on your laptop.

I Sugges you to log into your hotmail acc and go to security and password change bit, then you will see two-step verification.. turn that off and you will be able to set it up on your iPhone/iPad or even Mac.
Give your phone a restart before trying to set it up. Thanks

Having problems setting up iMessage

I'm having problems setting up iMessage on my iPod Touch. I have several iphones and they all were configured out problems. But I'm having difficulty getting this to work on an iPod touch.
The iPod touch has been upgraded to the latest iOS 5.01 from iOS 5.0 and I still have problems...
I have a valid iCloud account
iCloud is setup and working fine on this iPod touch
I've shut-down and restarted the iPod touch
I've done a hard-reset
Wifi is setup properly...
Here's the issue:
I open iMessage (either through the Messages app, or via Settings/Messages
I'm asked to enter the Apple ID. So I enter my Apple ID and password
I click "Sign In"
The app moves to the next screen - "People will message you using your email address. What email address would you like to use?". I enter the same gmail address I'm using for my Apple ID
I click the Next button and it scrolls back to the original "Enter Apple ID" sign in screen in Step#2. No error message appears.
So I don't really know what to try next..

OK - solved my own issue finally.
The answer was buried in another thread within a reply from user fdm1979.
The time on this particular iPod was wrong...just flip the Date/Time to "Set Automatically", and then suddently imessage and FaceTime started working.

HT4623 please help - installed IOS7 and now I am having problems playing Words Free on my Iphone. It gives me a pop up telling me to connect to ITunes but will not connect. Cannot get out and have to continually shut down my phone and start over.

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of so

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of something like .mov or mp4. How can I change the extension after the fact and avoid it in the future?

You said, "the 4 also has signal and wifi whereas the 5 has only wifi". By "signal", I'm assuing that you mean cellular signal. If so, that means your iPhone 4 is still active on your cellular number and your iPhone 5 is not. Contact your carrier to sort out which phone is active on your account.

I am having problems playing my videos from my iphone on my laptop

I have an iphone 5. I have not yet updated to ios 7. I am having problems playing my videos from my iphone on my laptop. the sound is jumpy and the playback is slow/jumpy. i have tried various players but none seem to be able to play back properly. Help!

Hello Bagpus113
Check out the article below to troubleshooting issues with the sound for music and for videos. One other thing you can try is to convert the songs to a different format

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.

TS3899 How do I fix my email account on my iphone 5? I have been having problems with my hotmail on my phone. Please help.

At first I deleted my account as suggested by the support article and instaled my hotmail account again.

Please help.
