Push mail using hotmail account

Can anyone recommend a solution for pushmail using a hotmail account. Currently i have a izymail account forwarding my hotmail to a gmail account which then forwards to mobileme and pushes down to me, this is a temp solution until my mobileme trial expires. Would a hosted exchange account work with push and if so can i use my hotmail account with exchange. Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes, you can use your hotmail account, but the catch is that you have to purchase a yearly subscription to Hotmail Plus. I think the price is about 20 dollars. You also need to have a Windows Live ID. In your windows live account you can set up forwarding to any email account.

While sending an e-mail from hotmail account, in a few seconds a message is received - Widows Live hotmail does not ready to accept your request. This is not the case on Safari.
It requires me to download the latest version of Silverlight, which is done, yet I do not know how to get to it on my hotmail page. I am using mac.

Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app. I am certain other applications also need this information. Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information. Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!

How can I set up iCloud sync with Outlook 2007 using Hotmail account?

Hi,
I installed iCloud PC control panel. I tried to sync my contacts and calendars from Outlook (2007) to the cloud but I gets this message: "Add an e-mail account to Outlook Before setting up iCloud". I have an Hotmail account synced up into my Outlook via Outlook Connector. Can iCloud sync with Hotmail accounts?
What should I do to get my calendars and contacts synchronize to the cloud. Does Outlook 2007 can be synced by the cloud too?

All you have to do is include a new e-mail account [email protected] (set it as a default) on Outlook with the options that are showed in the thread I linked and you should have the calendars and tasks syncronised. It works perfectly with ipod touch, ipad and Outlook 2010 on windows 7.

MacBook Airs won't run Classic, nor will Classic connect to iCloud accounts. You will need your Mac OS X version to answer the question involved. Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac, and post in the appropriate forum in the link below:

Using mail with hotmail accounts/university accounts..

I have a hotmail account and a university e-mail and was wondering if I would use those through mail? Because I know the only way to send things in pdf's from pages, lets say, is through mail.

You need to install a httpmail plugin for the Mail.app which adds the httpmail protocol and account type to choose from when creating the account which can be downloaded here.

My mail usually deletes my mail from hotmail account after I read the mail. I want to keep them in case I need them on my ipad. Who can I help me with this?

I got an iPad and an iPhone. I use their mail application daily basis. When I got my hotmail account, usually after I read the mail, an hour or sometime it's just gone. However it is still in the hotmail sever when I logged in my hotmail account on PC. I want them in my ipad or my iphone rather than I don't have to log in my hotmail account to check my email again via safari.

Do you receive a lot of mail on your Hotmail account?
Mail for iOS only defaults to 50 or 100 recent messages in the Inbox of each mail account. If you get a lot of mail, you may want to change that to 200, 500 or 1000 messages so they aren't removed from the device so quickly.
To change the setting, launch Settings then go to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" and change the number of messages under the "Show" item.

Mail problem Hotmail account

Hello. hoping someone can please help.
Have just purchased a 13.3" Macbook Pro, and love it - though am experiencing difficulties setting up various features.
Hope this is the correct forum.
Have set up two email accounts in Mail, GMail and Hotmail.
GMail seems fine, but my Hotmail account only shows a couple of folders. There should be approximately 5 folders (some containing emails which I keep),
and they are not appearing in my Macbook Mail. They show when using my old PC in Windows LiveMail and on the server. Wondering whether there is anything I can do to make them show in Mail, along with other folders.
Have looked at settings, and totally confused.
Would really appreciate any help.
Cannot state operating system - I know it is Lion (purchased last week), not sure where to look!
Thank you

There is a relatively easy way to setup the folders.
Step 1: Click on File, Add Account
Step 2: Type in the e-mail address and password
Step 3: Click Continue while holding down the Option key.
You now have options that didn't appear before.
Step 4: Select Account Type as SMTP
Step 5: Change Incoming Mail Server to imap-mail.outlook
Make sure that the username and password are entered correctly for your Hotmail account.
Click Continue. Make sure that Use SSL is selected and click Continue.
Step 6: Change Outgoing mail server to smtp--mail.outlook
Check username and password
Click Continue
Check details, select option to have account online, click on Create and done!

Mail and hotmail account sync issues

Hi,
I have recently reinstalled my mac to factory settings having cleared the HD. I then upgraded to OSMaverick for the first time and reinsatalled all my progames etc etc.
There are clearly some upgrades with Mail in Mavericks which look very nice. However, when i resync my hotmail account, it will only display the previous 350 or so emails in the inbox. (before the reinstal, Mail would display all 15000 emails from the past 5 years).
The rest of the emails appear to be in the trash folder as the following number is dispayed:15000. however when i click on the folder, there are no files actually in the folder.
How do access my old emails, and move them, into the inbox or somewhere else, so they are visable?
I know its some thing to do with the POP relationship, but its annoying that i previously didnt have this problem with Mail, and now i suddenly do, post upgrade.
Thanks in advance.

You can also log into hotmail in a browser and see if the 15000 are visible in the trash there. If they are there create a new folder to move them into it. Then set up Mail for IMAP.
Its a bit 20th century using POP and keeping your entire archive in Inbox which is at the mercy of any POP client. Use folders and IMAP.
When setting up Hotmail as IMAP follow Csound1's tip on page 6 of this thread regarding Option key https://discussions.apple.com/message/25745753#25745753

Why can't I receive incoming mail for hotmail account?

I have just setup my hotmail account for iMac. I can sent out mail from this hotmail account, but I cannot receive incoming. My hotmail server is set to : incoming - pop3.live.com & outgoing - smtp.live.com.

I can send mail, just can't receive mail.
The server end of this mail is Exchange Server, but gmail or other POP account don't have this problem.
I use Connect Doctor to check, it shows OK for POP and SMTP.
Use IMAP to access this mail account, It works fine.
Is it the problem for NTLM authentication problem?
Thanks in advance.

Problems receiving e-mails on Hotmail account while Windows Live Messenger is working on a pc...

Dear all,
it happens that when I have my Windows Live Messenger opened on my pc and fully working, I cannot receive the emails on my Hotmail account on my BB Torch 9860.
Is there any chance to fix this issue? 'Cause when I close Windows Live Messenger, the e-mail box works properly...
Thanks in advance for your support!

There is nothing to fix. As the KB says, only one client can be logged into Live at a time. So, if you (for example) leave a PC desktop logged in, then your BB email service will be unable to log in and bring email to your BB. I do not know if configuring the email via POP versus IMAP (which, btw, you cannot control via the BB email configuration) would make any difference or not. The way to make it all work is do exactly as you did...log out from the PC whenever you want email to flow to the BB.
Good luck!

Making Mail and Hotmail account the same

Hi, I just started using mail. I like it, but I have a lot of folders in my hotmail account that are nicely arranged and have documents I like to refer to. Is there a way to bring these folders--the way I have them in my hotmail account into mail? Also, can I export my hotmail contact list to mail or address book? Finally, when I delete a message directly from mail is there a setting I can turn on so that it automatically deletes in my hotmail account as well? Thank You

No. hotmail provides POP access only. POP only provides access to inbox, not any other folders. this is a limitation of hotmail, not Mail. it would be the same in any other email client. if hotmail provided IMAP access you could get to all those mailboxes in Mail.
Also, can I export my hotmail contact list to mail or address book?
probably, but you have to check with hotmail. do they allow exporting address book contacts at all? if so you should be able to export them from hotmail and then import them into Address Book.
Finally, when I delete a message directly from mail is there a setting I can turn on so that it automatically deletes in my hotmail account as well?
no. this is again a limitation of POP. you could do this with an IMAP account which syncs everything with the server so this would be automatic. if you want these features you might want to look into getting an IMAP account. gmail and AIM provide free IMAP accounts. mobileme is also IMAP but costs 100$ per year. but it offers many other features beside email too.
Thank You

How to use Hotmail account to sign in to Samsung T...

Before I could respond to this forum I was asked to sign in. I was going to post something fairly snarky. Then I was asked to create a Skype Name different than my hotmail account. So I created one. Hopefully this will answer MY question and that is why, on my Samsung TV app does it not offer the hotmail login or sign in name. Now maybe I can use the one Skype Name I just created???

Can I sync Office 2013 Home premium Outlook calendar and contacts across all my computers without using Hotmail account

I don't want to use a Hotmail account to do this.
Is it possible?
The licence is for 5 PC's but seems to have no sync ability.

I just went to Windows 8.1 and I purchased Office 365 home premium for 5 PCs or Macs and 5 mobile devices. No where in the page or the "learn more info" did it say it would not sync up with iPhones and iPads. I am concerned I wasted my money because
I truly wanted to have Outlook on my iPhone and Ipad. There is an OWA for iPad and Iphone available but I have deducted that it needs Microsoft Exchange which is not included in the home premium version of office365. I am not sure what good it does to advertise
syncing with mobile devices when it truly will not sync up. Is this True?
For $100/year, you would think exchange could be included so these syncing issues would not be a problem. I do not want to keep up with more email accounts just to make it work with Microsoft.
I am trying to keep things simple. I do use iPhones and Ipads, and based on the advertising for office 365 all my current issues would be seamlessly fixed by going this route. I'm afraid not unless someone can give me the simple solution that does not
require a PHd in computer saavy. I am not a rookie, but after 4 hours of trying everything I know to make it work, I just could not do it through my new office365 software or the apps for Iphone or Ipad. In addition, there were conflicting answers and
responses from Microsoft when I called or chatted with their support people.
BTW, I did download iCloud onto my new laptop and it knew that it was not syncing with Outlook and immediately asked if I wanted to fix. Downloaded the fix, restarted system, and calendar and contacts immediately synced up on my apple devices and my
new computer.
The funny thing is that I still cannot get Office365 to sync with the windows 8.1 calendar or contacts app on the start page using my POP email account that I have had for many years. I also think it needs exchange. Please provide some guidance
here.
I'm trying not to be difficult but am looking for the software to work as advertised so I can stick with all office products. If not, just give me a refund and I will buy a stand alone version for my PC and sync up with Apple apps which work well and
are much less expensive. Thanks for your assistance.
