I can't add my hotmail account

I have been getting a lot of spam mail and decided to change my email address. I have an Iphone 5 and everything was working fine...until I tried to change my apple id to my new email I created. It would would not let me change it on my phone so I took multiple steps to fix it, including restoring my phone, but now it won't let me add my new hotmail account under settings-> mail, contacts, calendars. I don't understand what the problem is. It is accepting my old email address, but not the new one I created! I have checked multiple times to make sure the username and password match, and they do, so I am at a loss for what else to try. Anyone else running into this problem? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi cleosmith,
When you say you changed your Apple ID to the new email you created, did you sign on to Manage Your Apple ID and edit your existing Apple ID to the new one?
Or are you saying you created a brand new Apple ID?
Cheers,

  • Can I add my hotmail account to icloud

    I would like to add my hotmail account to my icloud account.  It was there in my account settings but i could not get it to resend the verification email so I delete the account to try and start again.  Now it won't let me enter this account name.  Do I just have to wait 24hr or something like that?

    Hi annabelric,
    If you have not received the verification email for your Hotmail iCloud account the attached article has a lot of great information. Once an Apple ID has been created, you as the user cannot actually delete the Apple ID so you should be able to resolve this by following the steps in the article.

    Please let me know if you were unable to use this article to get the issue resolved.
    Have a great day,

  • How can I add http (hotmail) account in Mail app?

    It doesn't give the option for http when you configure the program so I'm just wondering if it's possible to do this.

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/httpmail-plugin
    heres a plugin for mail which lets you access http mail.
    i'm fairly sure it doesnt let you send mail - but i haven't used it and so i'm not sure
    I just happened to post this link in another thread and noticed this one so thought i wouldn't waste a perfectly good clipboard item.

    The seller needs to follow this procedure:

    If she refuses, then as Tim suggested the iPhone is probably stolen. You'll need to contact your local police department and ask how to proceed.

  • I upgraded to IOS 7 and now I can't get my Hotmail account on my phone.  When I type in all the information, I get "Unable to Verify Account Information".  How do I get to use my Hotmail account using this software????

    I have had the same problem as yours on my Ipad after upgraded Procreate 2.01. My iOS is 7.04. I tried to find solution from internet for weeks. Fortunately, the problem was resolved a few minutes ago. It is very simple,
    1. Lunch outlook.com to confirm you can access hotmail mailbox. It means your account is Ok.
    2. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars.Delete your hotmail account from your device.(my device is Ipad)
    3. Turn off your device, then turn on again.
    4. Go to setting>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and create your hotmail account by tap outlook.com. Be sure the incoming mail server is pop3.live.com.
    5. Waiting for validation.
    That's all. Hope my experience is helpful. Good luck!

  • Can't add ANY email accounts to iPhone

    I can't add any email accounts to my iPhone's mail application. (it used to work just fine) I have tried to enter my account information using my yahoo, gmail, and exchange and none work. I enter my account information and after it verifies it takes me to "account" which is only a blank screen. I have tried entering account information both directly on the mail app and under settings.
    Anyone having a similar problem? anyone have any ideas of how to fix or what's wrong?

    preciosa1435,
    Have you tried Resetting All Settings? To do so, navigate to Settings > General > Reset.
    If that doesn't work, restoring the iPhone and setting it up as a new phone (instead of restoring from backup) should ultimately resolve the issue.

    I can't verify my hotmail account ? Which leads me being unable to read/receive my emails ?

    How is being unable to verify your hotmail account, which is a Microsoft Service, relevant to these forums. If you can't verify your account information with Microsoft, that's something you need to take up with them.

    Just found the problem those XXXXX made an new security procedure that require you to log in your Microsoft account, and get another password to use on your device (iphone) when you add your Hotmail account for the first time!!!
