MSN Hotmail Account

Can someone please tell me the configurations I need to enter to setup my MSN Hotmail account on my iPhone.
Or, I would actually like this better: can someone help me set-up "Get mail from other accounts" on my gmail, because I have no problem setting up other gmail and yahoo accounts to forward to my main gmail, but every time I try to do my msn one, a message comes up that says
Anyone else having problems with forwarding their MSN accounts?
Thanks in advance!

I had the same problem, seems Hotmail is on to us iphone users and changed the protocol for forwarding. I understand from a business standpoint why they did it, but it still BLOWS!
Most of us Hotmail users still want to use our Hotmail account, just have forward messages to Gmail as well. The option to keep a copy in Hotmail inbox is available, so it's not like we are totally abandoning them. I have never considered swithching from Hotmail completely, but find myself in the process anyway.
Hope they make some changes soon

  • MSN/Hotmail accounts won't attach XML files

    I have included a SUBMIT BY EMAIL button on a form. MSN & Hotmail account users have reported that they cannot attach and send the .xml file. When they cut/paste the xml info into the body text, I save in Word as an xml file. Then I use the Import Data function in Acrobat 8.0 and nothing populates and I get no error messages. Help! Thank you.

    I've been experiencing the same problem with Safari for 6 months, including the latest v 3.0.4.
    I cannot attach a file to a web based email (I use yahoo email)
    I did not used to have any trouble, and I do not have any problem if I switch to Firefox.
    I read the suggested support articles, but manually creating an archive file each time is ridiculous, and there is no url or a place to put it for a file in my computer.
    I'm surprised more people haven't had this problem, I wonder what the issue is that effects so few of us.

  • Setup mail account for MSN hotmail account - HELP!!

    How do i set up my msn hotmail account for use in mail??
    Can anyone help with the ingoing/outgoing server?
    Please and thankss!!!!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I merely know the tool capable of connection Hotmail to Mac OS X's Mail program:
    httpmail
    Hopefully that page will give you enough to get started. It is much easier to setup an IMAP, POP, or Exchange Mail account. If you can get one of those in place of Hotmail, and have your Hotmail mail automatically forwarded to such an account, you'd have a much easier time.

  • Connection to MSN Hotmail Account is slow

    I recently purchased an iMAC 20" 1Gb and have noticed that when trying to access my hotmail account it is very slow. Are there certain setting that I should be looking at to make this respond quicker?

    That is unfortunate that your emails aren’t syncing. I have had this happen to my device before. It is pretty easy to resolve. First, I would delete the account by following these steps:
    From the home screen, touch Mail
    Display should be in existing email box, touch Menu
    Touch More
    Touch Settings
    User will see below options: Delete Account
    Then I would re-add the account by following these steps:
    From the home screen, touch the Menu.
    Touch Al Apps
    Tap mail
    Select mail provider
    Enter desired email address and password
    Tap Next
    Device displays checking settings and displays "Your account is setup"
    Give this account a name (optional)
    Enter the desired Email address and Password then touch Next.
    I am certain by following these instructions you will be able to have your emails syncing to your phone. Thanks.

    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.

  • HELP!  Can i set up mail application using my MSN hotmail account????

    can i use my hotmail address in the mail application, and how can i set it up??? i can't seem to figure it out!!!!

    Unfortunately hotmail requires you to pay a fee to have your e-mail go through a mail application, like Apple Mail. Contact their customer service to see about fees, as well as set up process.

  • I am trying to log in to my MSN Hotmail e-mail account, and after entering my login info, I get the error message that Firefox cannot find the server. Why not?

    When trying to log into my MSN Hotmail account (@msn.com), after I enter my credentials, Firefox gives me an error message that "Firefox can't find the server at blu152.mail.live.com". I am able to log in easily from the same computer using Internet Explorer. I think this problem just started yesterday. Why is Firefox unable to connect to my e-mail account?

  • Cannot access my hotmail account

    Anyone ever had the problem of all of a sudden not being able to access a msn hotmail account.  I never had this problem before.  I can still get AOL.  Any suggestions?

    Yeah, I am having trouble too. I am not getting mail nor can I send it. I deleted my mail account and then put it back on....now I see hotmail is having trouble. Thank you Demo, at least I know it is not my IPad having issues.

  • HT1694 iPod will not verify Hotmail account. Please help!

    Hello! I am trying to add my MSN Hotmail account to my new iPod Touch. However, every time I try to put in my address and password, it says it cannot be verified. I don't know why. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Now by "remedies", do you mean what the apple people say, or what we say? Because i know that i fixed mine by just hitting it a couple of times on the bottom and side. but PLEASE be careful. i just hit it into my palm. dont slam it on a hard surface - you could risk breaking it or moving something in the iPod that shouldn't be. Hope it helps. If not, then you will have to pay $30 shipping to send your iPod in. Instead of doing that, i suggest getting the Apple Care Protection plan. Yes, its more than $30, but it will help you in the long run.

  • Getting MSN/hotmail WITHOUT http plugin?

    I have been using the http plugin (Daniel Parnell, 1.49 version) for quite a few months now for my MSN email accounts. Everything was working fine until I started using my .mac sync function to backup up my mail stuff (accounts, rules, etc.) and then I started getting a lot of crashes in Mail and had to start my accounts again from scratch. I kept reloading all my accounts (mac, msn, gmail) and it would still crash. Finally, I loaded all but the MSN accounts (http plugin) and have done a couple syncs and haven't had any trouble since.
    My question is has anyone had this same problem and is there an alternative way to get your MSN accounts on Mail?
    I'm in the process of transerring those MSN accounts over to gmail but until then I'd like to get them on my Mail program.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    I haven't heard of anything else that allows MSN/Hotmail accounts to work with Mail..
    It is likely that another alternative would rely on the same technology/design. You might post a bug report with the project admins on
    http://sourceforge.net/support/getsupport.php?group_id=74709
    though the resolution of the issue may take some time.

  • I upgraded to firefox 4.0 and now my msn home page won't let me see my hotmail account

    Usually on my msn home page I can see stocks and my hotmail account. After upgrading the place is there but it won't show whether I have new emails or not and doesn't show current stock prices.

    If for FaceTime or Messages see:
    iOS: FaceTime is 'Unable to verify email because it is in use'
    Otherwise what are you doing?

  • Cannot Close Hotmail Account Linked to Verizon (with MSN Premium)

    I've been given the run-around by Verizon when I asked how to de-link Verizon with MSN Premium from my Hotmail account. After several bad pieces of advice (like switching to Yahoo - which I did but it did not delink my Hotmail from Verizon) they suggested that I contact Hotmail. I posted this message in the Hotmail forums but no response. I want to close the e-mail account in question but Hotmail says I cannot because it is linked to another service. As far as I know Verizon is the only service associated with my Hotmail account.
    Help?
    Thanks

  • Using a hotmail account as Mac Mail?

    A friend has an Apple which a few years ago downloaded a plugin to allow all emails from hotmail come to her Macmail application on her Macbook. She can also send mails from here as normal and they are sent as if in her hotmail account.
    However, she cannot remember how this is done. I'm looking to do the same, use my hotmail account email without having to sign into the hotmail browser, and use my macmail application. Does anyone have the details/plugin details to do this please? (I only have 10.3.9 by the way)
    Many thanks,

    I have found this -
    http://www.automagic-software.com/products.php
    check your mail->preferences->accounts, and click on your hotmail account.
    in the 'account information' tab, i have the following--without the brackets:
    description: [what shows up in the account pane to the left]
    email address: [your hotmail address]
    full name: [um...yer name]
    incoming mail server: [hotmail.com]
    user name: [your email address before the @]
    password: [your hotmail password]
    outgoing mail server:[services.msn.com:myusername]
    if i click the 'server settings' button below that pulldown, i can type in 'services.msn.com' easily enough. but, in order to get my username to show, i change the authentication pulldown to 'password' and enter my username and password.
    ok...that last bit is where it gets a little hinky. mine works just fine with authentication turned off. but, in the main view my outgoing server still shows my username after the colon.
    also, make sure you configure the other tabs....especially the 'advanced' tab where you have to enable the account.
    and, that the httpmail url is set to:
    http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
    If this works, could someone please confirm?
    Thanks,
