Hotmail email account no longer synching with S3

I don't know what happened or changed - but one day Tuesday the 13th, it was working fine and then no more email.  When I go on my other computers no problems - just the S3.  I noticed in the settings the Sync email box is checked but grayed out.  I went through the trouble of deleting the account - and losing all my sent email etc and then with some trouble was finally able to create a new hotmail account - that too does not want to play nice and sync w/ my Hotmail.  I have had this account forever and it's where all my email comes in and out of mostly.  Any insight on what might have changed and how I can fix it so that it syncs again and I get notified of incoming mail ?  This is why I got this new fangled phone - my Motorola Droid 3 never had a single issue.

    CMil - Have you tried manually recreating the account by going to Settings > Accounts & Sync > Add Account > Email > Other. This should help you create the account, and if needed, change port information. If you need any assistance, please let us know. We're here to help!
Thank you CMil.

    Hi,
    First of all you might want to double check the settings you are using for the POP3 account in Mail with Microsoft's instructions:

  • I deleted my original email account which is tied with my original apple id account. If I create a new Apple account will I lose all of my music,videos, and apps?

    I deleted my email account that is tied with my original apple account. I created a new apple Id and I'm afraid that I will lose all of my previous purchases. Please help.

    Sort of.
    - Apps and other purchases are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - You have to log into the account opd do certain things with the purchases like transfer then to your computer.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
    Try recovering yur PS for the first axccount so y can change the email address.
    How do I change or recover a forgotten Apple ID Password?
    If you've forgotten your Apple ID Password or want to change it, go to My Apple ID and follow the instructions. SeeChanging your Apple ID password if you'd like more information.
    I no longer have an email address that was also my Apple ID. Can I still use the email address as my Apple ID?
    Apple recommends you change your Apple ID to your current, working email address. This will not create another Apple ID, it will only change it to your working email address. See Changing the name you use for your Apple ID if you'd like more information.
    Note: @mac.com and @me.com Apple IDs can not be renamed.  If you no longer use the .mac or .me email address be sure to add your valid email address as an additional email address.

    How do I delete an icloud account which uses an email account no longer in use - I do not have the the passwrd for this account

    You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT569

  • Notes in a contact in OUtlook are no longer synched with my contacts on iphone

    Hi I noticed recently that the notes that I make about a person in their contact in Outlook is no longer synched with the Iphone.
    Does anybody know if there is a way to make this synch again?

    What about the opposite way:
    Create a test contact on iCloud, wait a few minutes, do you see it on the Mac?
    In Mac's Contacts > Preferences... > Accounts > Is the iCloud account enabled?

  • How do I delete an old email account that's associated with my Apple account? When trying to activate my Apple account my old email keeps popping

    How do I delete an old email account that's associated with my Apple ID? When trying to login on to my Apple account with my  ipad2 the old email account is still tagged as the primary account.

    OK that's what Ithought you were talking about.
    You can't actually delete an old Apple ID. You just sign into the new ID to use that one. Your old ID must be popping up because you used it in the past to purchase content with it. You cannot transfer purchases from one Apple ID to another Apple ID. You have to continue to use the old ID if you want to update content that was used to purchase with that ID.
    Did you sign into your new account in the settings and you can't stay signed in?

  • My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer.  Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1  iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

    My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer.  Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1  iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

    On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
    Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
    You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
    What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
    My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

  • Hotmail Email account not working on my Phone anymore

    Hi.  I have a Curve 8330 on the Sprint network.  About a day and a half ago I stopped receiving my emails on my phone.  I can't send email either.  SMS, MMS, Blackberry messenger all work fine.  My email account works fine if I log in through the browser.  My wife has the same phone and also has a hotmail email account and hasn't had any problems.
    Any ideas on how to fix this?
    Thanks.

  • IPhone 5s contacts are no longer synching with Mercedes E class command system. It did 3 days ago but no longer synchs my contacts?

    My iPhone 5s contacts are no longer synching with Mercedes E class command system. It did 3 days ago but now it longer synchs my contacts - how do I get my contacts downloaded to the command system of my car?

    status update -- I tried a lot of other things but finally solved the problem after I removed all the groups from mac address book. (thank-you to my son Ben)
    FYI -- along the way I tried doing the reset sync history, which deleted all contacts from the iphone. I initially thought that was a good thing, until I discovered that nothing I tried after that would put the contacts back on the iphone. Next I restored factory settings on the iphone and set up as a new user, but that didn't work either. Or maybe it did; maybe deleting the groups wouldn't have solved the problem if I hadn't deleted all contacts and reset the iphone first.

    I had the same issue.  I just went to the Apple Store today to talk to someone about it.  They had me delete the account and then add it back in.  It's been working fine ever since!
