Problems with Hotmail being delivered to phone

This has been problematic since I got my first smartphone two weeks ago. It would not receive e-mail at all, and gave me an error message saying the account password was incorrect. (It was not, I've had the same password for a few months) Then it cleared up, and the phone was receiving e-mail from my Hotmail account live for a couple of days, over the weekend. Now it does not appear to be syncing automatically, and when I sync it manually I no longer receive the error message, just no e-mail is being delivered at all?!! Anyone else having this problem? Any advice? 

I had the same problem with my Droid Razr M. Kept on getting error messages such as you're getting. Read in another community to delete the Hotmail account from the "Email Folder." I might add, check the settings and write down all the information, such as port numbers, etc. before you erase the account. Than add the Hotmail account to the folder marked "Other." This seemed to do the trick for me. Another thing you might try is to download an Email server from the Google Play. There are several of them, and some are free. I downloaded GO Email, and it works like a charm.

  • When I use Firefox and Hotmail at startup, Firefox freezes for about 1 minute, and then I can continue. First I though it was my computer but 2 other girls in my class have the same problem with Hotmail and Firefox. What can I do to change this?

    When I start Firefox, about 15 seconds after I start it, my Firefox freezes for about 1 minute. I found out that it is my Hotmail that makes Firefox freeze.
    First I thought it was my computer, but I have 2 other girls in my class that use Hotmail and Firefox and their computer also freezes for 1 full minute.
    This is very annoying, what can I do to change this?

    p.s. I am from the Netherlands, maybe that has something to do with it?

  • After upgrading to firefox 3.6 I have problem with hotmail email service

    after upgrading to firefox 3.6.4 I have problem with hotmail email service, however I can login in hotmail, I can't open mails or delet or do anything else with them.

    http://hotmail.msn.com

    Thank you, but I already have "always show tabs bar" set.
    Also, I have two computers and the other is running the exact same version of Firefox, and the exact same theme, but it does not have this problem.
    To make sure I'm being clear: there is an "x" on each tab that allows me to close it when I have multiple tabs open. When I have only one tab open, there is no "x"; so in order to close the webpage I have to open another empty tab, and then close the first. My other computer has the "x" to close the tab visible even when there is only one tab so that I can close the page and have an empty (marked "(untitled)" tab). Please help!

    Will there be a fix for Firefox's problems with Hotmail. I have gone back to 3.5.9 but mostly I am disappointed by the lack of action on this serious problem where a major and critical feature of a major international website is unavailable in the Firefox browser.

    We've reached out to the Hotmail team and they've determined that this is a bug in their code. (It was masked by a timing issue in 3.5 that was fixed in 3.6.) We've worked with them to develop a fix but they may not have deployed it yet.

    I assumed this would help my problem with not being able to open apps like Preview or TextEdit since I installed Mountain Lion. Instead, first I'm prompted to enter a password, then once I do that, I get an error box telling me the Library needs repairing. So I click on Repair, and once again I'm prompted for a password, which I enter, then the same error box opens, and so it goes. Can anyone help me with this problem? I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Step 1 should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary, and if everything is working as expected after step 1.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

    My 13 inch Macbook pro w retina will not install/download OS X Mavericks because it says I do not have the requirements in order to install it. I purchased my Mac this past month on 11/20/13 so i do not have a problem with it being an older version. Please help. This is my first computer so i dont have any experience on how to fix this.

    You can't install the App Store version of Mavericks because your model needs a special version. If you ever need to reinstall it, boot into Recovery.

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

  • Problem with hotmail calendar display

    Problems with hotmail calendar display.

    I am almost a total computer novice and am having what I think is the same problem  Just got my first Apple computer (Macbook Pro).  MSN Hotmail is my email account.  All the events on my 'hotmail' account are now unreadble because they are squished to the left side of the screen and I don't find any instructions as to how to fix this in the system. This problem didn't exist when I first started using my MAC two days ago, but now I'm stuck.  Everything else in my 'hotmail' seems to work fine.  Don't know what Chrome or Firefox is or if there is a cost for them.  Also, have never downloaded a program if any kind.
    My calendar is critically important to me and I don't have a clue as to what to do now.  Hope you can help.
    Thanks.  Linda

  • Has anyone had problems with iCloud being blocked by corporate web security?

    Has anyone else encountered problems with iCloud being blocked by the web-security on company computers?   I never had any problems with me.com, but now it appears I will be unable to check my mail via any computer at work. 
    Since iCloud is a portal for high-volume image and file sharing, I can understand why the site would be blocked, but it's very frustrating that this possibility would not have been anticipated, and an alternate web-mail site been set up.  Otherwise many me.com subscribers may be left unable to use the iCloud web-mail portal via computers at work or at internet cafes that may block access to potentially risky websites.
    Has anyone figured out a back door to this problem? 

    I dont beleive its an iOS 5 Issue - i think its hardware...
    Simply because i have been running iOS 5 beta's since june and there were no issues with my iPhone 4.
    When i installed the GM on my iphone 4 (which is the same build as the public release) there were no issues with charging in my vehicle.
    Now, charging my iPhone 4S in my car is practically impossible.
    when i plug mine in, it will display the "Plugged" symbol on the battery display but not actually charge. the battery will still decrease.
    then it will randomly "disconnect" and not register that it is plugged in. then appear to be plugged in, then not, then plugged in, then not.
    This will repeat over and over again without actually charging and the charger being in the socket throughout.
    however yesterday i left it plugged in and my battery was 9% and after the strange plugged-in behaviour i noticed it was charging normally after about 20 mins in the car.
    But when i did the same journey time today, the battery wouldnt register at all.... charging has only been successful ONCE since 14th October on the iPhone 4s
    No idea whats up with it...
    anybody else?

  • Data Roaming Problems with Lumia 610 and 710 phone...

    Data Roaming problem with Lumia Wndows 7.5 phones.  We have a Lumia 710 and also 610 phones on Virgin pay monthly sim cards.  We cannot get data raoming to work on either phone.  We have tried in a number of locations in France and Switzerland. Virgin confirm roaming and data roaming are set up on our account.  
    - I have purchased Data Passes.  
    - Settings>Mobile Network active network shows current operator
    - Data Connection is on,
    - Data roaming option shows "roam",
     - highest connection speed is 3G,
     - network selection is automatic.
     - Flight mode is off.  
     - Account settings are ok because everything works on Wifi.
     - Connection has been full bars showing 3G.  
     - I have tried hard resets of phone, manual network selection, deleted browsing history,
     - phone software reports that it is up to date,
     - I have run Network Setup which confirms phone has been updated network settings for relevant operator.
     - Telephone calls to Virgin from Switzerland could not resolve the problem.  
     - Discussions with Virgin since returning home have not been able to solve the problem.  It seems to be an issue with Lumia phones. 
    Can anyone help please? Nokia - why doesn't this work on your phones?

    I'm like what an OS this phone has. All I can say is that if you own MS stock dump it fast as the OS on this phone is so bad its not even funny.
    I think what they are trying to do here is a last ditch attempt to capture the online services market but it isn't going to work, because they have made this OS to weird.
    I'm a pretty seasoned user and I generally am able to get gadgets to work but dudes this puppy is something else. I have 14 days to exchange it so Im going to give it my best shot for another couple of days and see where it goes.
    The phone itself is pretty decent otherwise I would have returned on the 2nd day. Its pretty fast and the screen is nice and bright and if not some major concerns I wouldn't be a complaining.
    1st} There is no way to import your bookmarks into the phone without using a online service.
    2nd} I haven't been able to successfully export my old contact list from my LG P500 Android.
    The 710 seems to only use contacts that are stored on online services even though I have imported my contacts using the Contact transfer function on the phone.
    3rd)The phone won't shut off while charging even if you shut the phone down , plug it in and it turns on no matter what you do.
    The Zune software is all glitter and no meat too unfortunately.
    I really wanted an alternative and the phone is such good value and a local new Provider has a 27 $ a month unlimited everything, but luckily they have a 14 day phone exchange policy.
    I'm going to keep for a few more days and see if I can get it to work the way i want it to.
