Signing in with hotmail account Problem

i just got an Iphone 4
i have two main problems
The first is i cant add my email (Hotmail) account in the Mail.
whenever i enter the email and the password, it give me this message:
"The user name or Password for "pop3.live.com" is incorrect"
im 100% sure that both email and pass are correct.
Note: I cant add my hotmail account but when i tried to add the live account its works!!
the other problem is, i downloaded windows live messenger ..
when ever i log in with hotmail account it give me incorrect email or password message .. although im entering it correctly !!
Note: it work with the live when i tried to log in with it but not hotmail account
Hope to fix it..

Try changing your password at hotmail. My problem may have been related to a password that was too long (14 chars I think), but after I changed it (11 chars, shorter, but secure) and tried again it worked.
I don't think length was the problem, maybe resetting it was the trick.

Mail has intermittent keychain password problems with Hotmail account

Most of the time Mail can access both my Me mail and Hotmail. However, since I moved from Tiger to Leopard Mail loses access to my Hotmail password and asks for it to be reentered to check for mail. If I don't do this I get the usual problem lightning bolt icon by mt Hotmail in-box in Mail. But when I click this and recheck for mail manually it works fine every time.
Is mail just not accessing my key-chain when it isn't the active application I'm running?

This is a common report with Hotmail accounts, but currently mine is staying connected. I think the prompt actually results from the checking the connection on the SMTP, rather than the Incoming Server, but not sure in every case. I have seen the problem in Mail 2.x, 3.x and 4.x. If it goes into a period of frequently giving the prompt, I change to exclude the account from auto checking for new mail, and then manually check for new messages.
That mine is currently working may be due to my changing the SMTP to that of my ISP rather than the one from Hotmail.

Palm treo 680 Problems with hotmail account

I have a palm treo 680, have Problems with hotmail account, dont have configuration in versamail and when enter with the browser dont open documents, photos or videos. Thanks
Post relates to: Treo 680 (Unlocked GSM)

IIRC, Hotmail is like Yahoo's free email - you have to pay for POP access.
If you aren't paying for a premium version of HotMail, it won't work correctly with VersaMail.

I tried to uninstall completely and reinstall, delete the share.xml and all of the available solutions. None of them have worked! It's worth to mention that I have no problem with Android version.

How do I sign in with Hotmail?

I came to skype.com and tried to sign up.
It said as I already have a hotmail account, so I should sign in with that.
So I did.
So then it logged me in and showed me my new skype id, which was 'live:MYNAME'
But what is my password?
Its not the same as my hotmail password is it? Because I tried that and it does not work.
I try to change my password but it says 'old password was not incorrect'.
I am stuck in a loop. HELP Please.
Solved!

You don't use a Skype password. You will always sign in with your hotmail account my clicking on the "Sign in with Microsoft account" option.

Hi Glenn,
You need to Authorize your Mom's computer to your iTunes sign on. Sign on to iTunes, then go to Store at the top of the screen, and select Authorize this Computer.
Then you can download your purchases from your iTunes library by going to the iTunes Store (the one in the sidebar), Music, and then under Quick Links, Purchased.
Once the Purchased window comes up, select "Not on this Computer", and then select All Songs. Your purchased songs will display with a cloud next to them, and you can download them selectively or "Download All" (lower right-hand corner).
Hope this helps!
Cheers,

The Facebook app won't let me sign on with my account. I can sign on to another account just fine. Will not let me sign on through Safari or Google either. When I put in email and password it goes right back to the log in page. Help?

On my iPhone 4, the Facebook app won't let me sign on with my account. I can sign on to another account just fine. The first time I sign on with the FB app it goes to the news feed page, says loading, and then flipps between loading and connection error. If I close out of that and try to sign in again it locks up on the logging in page. From Safari or google it goes to the log in page, after entering my email and password it goes right back to the log in page. I have tried resetting my phone, deleting and re-installing the app and everything else I can think of. Since I can log onto another account on my phone it can't be the app, any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Sounds like a hard reset is in order...

We won't know until you try the procedure. The reset will not affect the content of the iPod.

Problem with hotmail account

I discovered that someone had hacked my hotmail account turning it into a spam-bot. I changed the password to my email account. When I updated the password for that account on both my iPad and iTouch, I got an error message saying that the username or password is incorrect.
I know that both are correct because I can sign in to my email account from my laptop. I've tried several times to add the account with the same result. Any thoughts as to what I am doing wrong?

OK, here you go: the settings for your hotmail account:
Account Information Page:
description: what you want
email address: your hotmail address
Full Name: decide
incoming mail server: pop3.live.com
username: type your hotmail address full
password: your password
outgoing mail server: smtp.live.com
on page advanced: port 995 check "use ssl"
then: edit the page smtp.live.com in the smtp server list:
advanced: use port 25, check "use SSL, Authentification password, type full hotmail address and password.

Problem with hotmail account please help.

Hi hope someone can help. Have problem receiving mail on iPad since last Friday. I have a hotmail account. It says unable to get mail, cannot connect to server. I can receive mail to my gmail account and my sons hotmail account. I deleted the account in iPad mail settings and then added it back in but still get message 'cannot connect to server'. Have also rebooted wireless router - it's working fine. Any suggestions appreciated....

I have exactly the same problem on both my iPad and iPhone. This happened after the upgrade to ios 7.0.6. I noticed that the SSL option disapeared in the advanced email account settings on the iPhone and iPad. But I could not figure out how to solve it....
