If you only want WLM, you can uncheck the other Windows Live software.

  • Can't add Windows Live Mail store folder, as per l...

    I used to be able to backup my Outlook Express store folder (on XP) to have an up to date copy of my email, but for some reason I can't do this with Windows Live Mail in Windows 7.
    C:\USERS\logon\LOCAL SETTINGS\APPDATA\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS LIVE MAIL
    (where logon is the user)
    When I try to do this using the Add Folder option, it doesn't calculate how much space is required or anything. I navigate to the location and click on the folder, but it simply reverts to the windows that has the <add folder> button.
    Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks..........ebt
    Solved!

    You can't back up pst files to BT Cloud as they are dynamic, i.e. constantly being updated.
    The same will apply to the Windows Live Mail folder.
    You will have to either export it to a static type of file or a zipped file.
    There is a section referring to this in the BT Cloud Help. I can't find the exact link but you can do a search, or someone may post the exact link.

    The above will take you to the link....I hope.
    Hope this explains the situation.

  • How to i go directly to my inbox in windows live mail using firefox

    Nothing more than what I've already said. I want to go directly to inbox in windows live mail (my account is actually Hotmail.com) if that makes a difference. I've tried what others have but they have used IE and the options are there from there silly Msn toolbar, but the toolbar is not compatible with Firefox. Please if anyone can help would be much appreciated.

    What do you think about using a bookmark? If you display the Bookmarks Toolbar, it's a one-click operation. If you save the bookmark to the Bookmarks menu, it's a two-click operation. You wouldn't need an additional toolbar.
    After opening your mailbox, you can drag the padlock icon from the left side of the address bar and drop it on the Bookmarks Toolbar to add the bookmark there. Right-click and choose Properties to edit the name if it's not to your liking. (If you don't normally display the Bookmarks Toolbar, you can show it by right-clicking a blank area of the tab bar and choosing it from the toolbar list.)
    Or to add it to your Bookmarks menu, double-click the faded "star" icon after the right end of the URL (or press Ctrl+d) to open the bookmark dialog. Change the folder to Bookmarks Menu if necessary.
    Now... I should mention that for this to work in the future, you would need to stay logged in to your mail site (using Microsoft's cookie) or have Firefox or your favorite password filling add-on save your mail login. Otherwise, your bookmark will be diverted to the login page.
    Any luck?

    Windoze live mail is basically hotmail.
    Microsoft followed Google's lead in this regard and now supports accessing a Hotmail or Windows Live Mail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app. This provides for push access for received messages, and over the air syncing for contacts and calendar events with your Windows Live Mail online contacts and calendars.  Instructions for doing this should be available via the Live Mail website.
