How to add hotmail account to my mac mail?

I want to manage may hotmail account in my mail from my macbook pro. Apparently, I could add the account but it cant sincronize. Could somebody help me?

Hotmail.com has now become Outlook.com
The nearest thing to an official Microsoft answer I have found is here http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook_com/forum/oemail-osend/how-to-set-up- mac-mail-to-sync-your-outlookcom/afdfe981-20c7-4d4a-b6b1-9329b27f018a
Since Hotmail.com has become Outlook.com it should apply to you as well.
I also found the following http://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/how-set-up-my-hotmail-account-on-m ac-3500828/
To summarise it should be possible to set it up in Apple Mail as (preferably) an IMAP type account, or also a POP3 type account. So far there does not seem to be a way to add the Contacts or Calendars to the respective programs on the Mac. Windows users can use Outlook and get all three.

Why do gmail users recieve my mac mail signature in grey font?

I emailed my gmail account from my mac mail account and the signature arrived in a different font ( grey ).
Why is that? How do I keep it black?

The server returned the error: The connection to the server “www.rogers.com” on port 110 timed out.
It sounds like you're trying to connect to a web server, not a mail server. Check with your ISP for the right server address and settings.

How can i add an rss feed to mac mail?

I am trying to unclog my email and cancel many of the news related emails I get each day. I would like to figure out the best way to still get news sent to me (without having to always remember to check 6-7 websites). I used to use RSS feeds into my email program (was using outlook). I cannot figure out how to add an rss feed to show up in mac mail as an email folder on the left hand side of the screen under the mailboxes.
Thanks.

That functionality is not to be found in Apple Mail for Safari. Your best bet is the brilliant free RSS reader Vienna. Works very well, highly recommended.

Any advice how to get it back?

It seems its all in the new ARCHIVE folder which shows up now.......but dont delete mails in the inbox as that really deletes them and they go to TRASH. So you have to manually MOVE TO ARCHIVE to ensure it finds itself in ALL MAIL on the gmail server. Hope that helps?

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

My Macbook Air 2011 will not allow me to add Gmail accounts to my Mac Outlook 2011

been through the ringer...called Microsoft, contacted Gmail, Apple and a tech support from my IProvder. With that being said I have another mac, iMac 2013 with the exact same version of Mac Outlook 2011 that works...I went through the 2nd step verification and had to delete as it was causing even more problems.
Should be a simple set up of google but Mac Outlook 2011 won't take it. My internet google acounts are all working and so is my MAC mail.
Any direction or help would be appreciated.

Gmail set up in Mac Mail gives me 3 of all mails?

I was having problems with duplicate mails in Mac Mail and on my iPhone etc as is widely reported as a bug elsewhere, so I followed advice and switched to GoogleMail and IMAP.
I've set up my iPhone and Mac Mail to use the IMAP GoogleMail account instead - and for the main inbox view at the top of my mailboxes view in Mail I have exactly what I want (and no duplicates).
But I also have (further down the hierarchy view on the left side of mail) another set of folders with the name I've given my GMail account (Personal Mail) and within that group of folders I have a mailbox I cannot delete called [Google Mail] this has an All Mail folder and there is also another folder with the name of my mail account. Both of these appear to independently maintain copies of my inbox mail.
It semes that in addition to the IMAP account that I've set up myself, somehow Mac Mail is also maintaining a view of GoogleMail in parallel.
Can anyone shed light on this? I want one copy of mail but now have 2 or possibly 3!

it certainly is possible to do that.
the exact details depend on how your POP is set up. do you keep the messages on server after you download them? If yes, you don't have to do anything special. just create an IMAP account and you are set.
If you don't keep messages on server after POP downloads then I would do the following.
1. change the behavior of your POP to NOT delete messages from server upon downloads.
2. set up IMAP and let it sync.
It will be lacking old messages from your POP mailbox as they are not on the server. to change that you can copy all the messages from your POP inbox to your IMAP inbox. Just select them all in the POP inbox, right-click and use "copy to" menu.
WARNING: if you do this, IMAP will sync up and put all those messages back on the server from your computer's mailbox. This can take a VERY long time if your inbox is big. Therefore, it's up to you if you really want to do this.
After everything is working correctly you can delete the POP account if you wish.

Gmail folders disappearing in Mac Mail under Mavericks

Hello,
We use gmail for our small charity as an email client and mac mail to sync it between all devices.
It has been working well under Mountain Lion.
I have just upgraded to Mavericks and under 'Inbox' a whole series of folders I previously used to catalogue and sort my email have now disappeared. I cannot find where they are or the email that was in them and nicely sorted.
All Mail is showing - have picked this up from other threads.
Why didn't my previously logged folders come over with the upgrade? Can they be found and enabled? If not, how to do go back to Mountain Lion?

See this article for help:

How do i change date format in mac mail?

how do i change the date format in mac mail?

I just had this problem and I already was using "classic layout".
I went back to mac mail and at the top, it says, MAIL, FILE, EDIT, VIEW (etc). In VIEW, in the drop down, one of the options is ORGANIZE BY CONVERSATION ..I saw that mine was CHECKED.
I unchecked it and now all the emails are fine again, showing one by one, as opposed to all my emails from one client getting lumped together.
