Can you get back old Hotmail account, after having renamed it to new Outlook account?
Well here is Microsoft's answer on Reddit!
If you renamed your account, and want to rename it back to the original name, you can do that.
IMPORTANT: This may not work if you are outside of the US and have a "@live.com" or "@Hotmail.com" address!
First, remove the alias that was created when you renamed your account (the alias will be for the original name).
Go to http://account.live.com, select "Notifications" then "manage your email preferences" and you'll find links to remove aliases.
Second, go back to the Rename page, Sign In and rename back to the original name.
Hope it helps someone!
I recommend downloading and running Reimage. It's a computer repair tool that has been proven to identify and fix many Windows problems with a high level of success.
I've used it in the past to identify and fix everything from blue screens (BSOD's), ActiveX errors, corrupt files and processes, dll/exe/sys errors, recover lost memory, Windows update problems, defragging, malware removal etc.
You can download it direct from this link http://downloadreimage.com/download.php. (This link will automatically start a download of Reimage that you can save to your computer.)
I have an outlook account <removed by mod>
i'm not able to login here because of password is incorrect, so finally how to reset it. I'm using window 10 OS.
I need toll free Outlook/Hotmail support number.
i have removed the email address as it will provide you with a lot of SPAM
There is no support number , for outlook/hotmail as far as I know, BUT that may have changed now with Windows 8 (when MS first started linking email accounts to PCs for login)
you can goto chat - and MS will assist via Chat service
If you have forgotten the password - goto another Pc that works
Login page for the account
Then click on forgotten password
you then have to either do
a) Enter the mobile number to get a text code to reset - these should have been set up when the account was first created
b) Enter the alternative email address to get a Code to reset - these should have been set up when the account was first created
c) Enter the answers to the security questions
If you cannot do any of these - then there is a form to try and rescover the account
You need to provide a lot of details, and on the three attempts I have tried this to help people, they have an email back saying not enough information and ended up changing to a new email address and never did recover - BUT Thats before this windows 8 and using MS password
so you maybe OK to use Chat line
What country are you in - you may have a support number - not sure it will be toll free
the UK is 0344 800 2400
I have a new computer. I just noticed an old picture, which is not in my new computer saved, is STILL showing up as profile picture on emails I send. I put a new picture up, BUT the old picture is still showing up on emails I forward. HOW

Today, I went to a site to help someone (elderly) get information regarding doctor care. After I put in all their information, I then went to my hotmail sign in, and the other parties name came up, and I was blocked from from my account. I realized my hotmail account was now changed to his address. Each time I try to sign in, it states we want to verify you are such and such, his name not mine. How in the world do I get my hotmail account back under my address. I am so very overwhelmed by this. I went to tech support at hotmail, and they want to charge me, and could care less about my dilemma. I am a senior citizen, and do not have the funds to correct my mistake. Is this the way it is for our elderly in situations like this? Please, I need your help. I was trying to do a good deed for someone and now I have terrible trouble. I am very limited on computer tech. stuff.

it s a hotmail account sincronized for 2 phonesMore replies
It used to be not connected to any email account but when it updated to 8.1 I chose to get an email address for it, so now as a result, the password has to be 8 characters long and I have to use a PIN number , but that's still 4 characters, and I usually use one character password.
So how do I go back to the normal type of user account to use the 1 character password?

Hi Guys,
My wife cannot access her Outlook/Hotmail account, every time she logs in she gets the message "It looks like someone else might be using your account"
we have tried to verify the account and change the password using the on screen instructions however all we get is thrown back to the above message?
I have Googled this and it looks as if there is no easy fix, the one option appears to be we follow link and pay a technician £14.99 to cure the problem.
I am not fussed about the money but I am not sure if the technician is genuine?
Any help would be useful
Thank You
That option is a scam. Currently, Hotmail/Outlook are having problems, down for many users.
Get the machine checked for spyware/malware, there may be a redirect or similar in use.
I have a Windows 10 phone (Verizon 735), a couple of Windows 10 laptops, and annual Office 365 subscription. Just a home user and have all my Contacts/Calendar in Outlook, but don't have an Outlook email account....just AOL accounts which I get via Imap/Pop.
In past, I setup m.hotmail.com to sync across laptops and phone but sketchy at best. Just got notifications to "Re-connect Outlook 2016 ". Deleted old Outlook account and added new account....tried no hotmail this time. Outlook came up great...only 1 calendar!!!!! However nothing syncing with phone. Assume still need hotmail?
All I want to do is have my Outlook contacts and calendar synced with all my devices. Assume this should be very basic as guess all this is on "My Cloud"? Also, should be the minimum if Windows phone has any chance. Appreciate any help.
It all comes from accounts.
What account do you use for Office 365 sign in?

I told the computer NO I do NOT want to "try" outlook go directly to hotmail when it started showing up upon log in. Well it ignored me and forced it on me anyway. At first it would let me just use that gear thing and tell it to switch back. It KEEPS doing it though? Is there a way to make it NOT automatically force the outlook on me? Something is wrong with it if I use the IE browser to get into my email. It lets me log in then sits there spinning its wheels indefinitely. I figured out to go use a different computer with firefox on it to log in so I could at least clean it out from all the junk but I am fed up now. Am I or am I not going to be aloud to KEEP hotmail. Will I eventually be forced to keep the outlook? I hate to have to do it but if that is the case I need to quick pull all my contacts etc and start using yahoo or something else that actually WORKS and lets me delete crap without opening it first!
As I understand it we can continue to use hotmail.com and live.com addresses indefinitely. I suspect that the Hotmail GUI will disappear completely one of these days and we'll be left with the Outlook GUI or one of Microsoft's email clients.
Can anyone out there help me with setting up my outlook express so that i can use it for opening my hotmail messages. I did have it on my last pc but have since forgotten how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Cheers

I still have a Hotmail account I want to secure better. Right now all I have to do is enter my email address and then approve the login with the authenticator on my phone.
Well jeez.. talking about making it easy to break into my account! If someone knows the code of my phone, all they need to do is look at my iPhone info and they can see my email address. Then, simply enter the email address and approve it and BAM they're in!
At least Gmail asks for a password AND the authenticator code when logging onto an 'unknown' device. Or does it work the same way for Hotmail/Live/Outlook?
I prefer to always log in with my password initially. If I didn't have a password on my PC, they'd very easily be able to log into my Hotmail account, since 'stealing' a phone login code is very, very easy. People will just stand behind you, watch you tap your login and BAM it's game over. Sure, they'd still need to get a hold of my phone, but man, I just hate it that Hotmail switched it around.
You should always have to enter your password first, and an extra code from your phone as an extra.
I'm asking this specifically, because my Gmail has a Hotmail account as backup email address.
I have perused many forums about this and can find nothing that is comprehensible or useful!
I have created a folder in my Outlook for my Hotmail account, and the Inbox contents have come over but not the folders. It seems a simple request but I can't find a solution.
1. I don't need Outlook Connecter - the account is already created.
2. Microsoft Help is useless, so please don't tell me to go there!
3. If you are going to speak to me of .pst files, please explain what they are, where they are and what to do with them!
I can't find anything in the Outlook menus - am I missing something? I also can't find anything in Hotmail.

I have an old hotmail account so I can use programs such as outlook to view my e-mails which is what I have been doing for many years though Outllook 2002,2003 and now 2007. Everything has been fine up until this week when I started getting a 0x800cccf0 error. I have looked this up on google and it tells me that it happens when you have more than one hotmail account I don't and that is only for outlook 2002. I have attached a jpeg so you can see the error message in full. I don't know if it is a hotmail problem or not my NTL account is working fine. The PW is correct as I can log onto the webmail.

I have a Microsoft account and I am using it with Windows 10.
I want to use the Windows 10 built in Mail App.
It seem very nice.
I added multiple Gmail and Yahoo accounts without any issue.
But, finally, when I want to add more Hotmail accounts Windows 10 told me to use "Windows Hello" or something like that.
I really don't want that Windows adds ANOTHER USER in my computer, I only want to use MULTIPLE Hotmail/Outlook mails and their contacts and calendar!!!
I am afraid that it will add them as USERS of the computer, I don't want it!!!
PS: I found an half solution, I don't add the Hotmail account as "Outlook" account but as GENERIC INTERNET account. And it works. But I cannot use CONTACT and CALENDARS of it.
Hi. I have a similar problem. I don't have a Microsoft account, I don't want one. My Windows 8 E-Mail address is for the E-Mail account on the family webserver, and yet when I get the confirmation E-Mail, it links me to a hotmail/outlook login page.
hotmail/outlook can't process my Windows 8 E-Mail account, how do I get past this aggravating obstacle?
When Win 8 asks you to verify your account, it shows you your email address in one box with some of the characters replaced by *s and wants you to type in the email address in its entirety in another box. Once you do that, an email is sent to that address with a code for you to enter to verify.
There shouldn't be any confusion about which email address to enter unless you have 2 different but very similar email addresses.
I am running Outlook 2003 on Windows XP Prof. I installed Outlook Connector 12.1 and added my hotmail and MSN accounts. Both showed up in my mail folders list and both connected to the web and downloaded just fine.
When I tried to Send/Receive just my hotmail account, it was not listed in the Send/Receive group, so I checked the Email Accounts list. The hotmail account is not listed in my Email Accounts list (tools, Email Accounts, View/change), yet it is showing in the Mail Folders. I can send mail from that account if I hit reply on a received message but not if I try to select that account on a new message. I uninstalled Connector, and removed MSN from the list but I cannot remove hotmail as its not on the list of accounts. When I try to close the folder (right click, close [email protected]) I get an error saying to use the Email Accounts list to remove it...but its not on the list.
Any idea how to remove an email account that shows up in the Mail Folders but is not listed as an account in the Email Account list? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Welcome to TSG!
Try this:
In Outlook's Account Settings window, go to the Data Files tab and select your Personal Folders and click Open Folder.
In the window that comes up you should see a file named emailid_hotmail.ost. Close Outlook and delete this file.
Reopen Outlook to see if Hotmail account is gone.
By default, when adding hotmail accounts on Outlook using EAS, the account got added with FULL HOTMAIL NAME:
[email protected]
There was a process by which the left pane of Outlook showed any Name that user wanted.
Now with reconnecting Hotmail account in Outlook (going to Exchange), the same situation of FULL HOTMAIL NAME in the left panel has come up.
The older process (with EAS) does not work.
Any ideas?
When you say old process were you connecting to "Hotmail" as a POP account?
Mine shows exactly as yours does but even before I did the reconnect it showed that way.
All Windows Live Hotmail accounts can be used with Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 or with Office Outlook 2003, whether you use a free or paid Windows Live Hotmail account. To use your Windows Live Hotmail account together with Outlook, you must first install the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector for Windows Live Hotmail.

So this is probably the strangest problem I have ever encountered with Windows 7. About two or three months ago, I noticed that my user account had suddenly changed into a guest account. I get prompted for an administrator password when trying to do any tasks that require administrator privilege. It is not a huge hassle, as I know the administrator account password.
Here is where it becomes very strange. When I turn my computer on, it automatically logs me into my user account (the guest account). When I got into the user accounts section of the control panel and try to manage user accounts, it shows exactly zero user accounts on my computer. Also, when I try to change my user account (the guest account) to an administrator account, precisely nothing happens.
It gets evens stranger. When I log out of Windows, the only user account I can pick from, to log back into Windows, is the generic "Administrator" account. My user account is nowhere to be found. When I go to the control panel and try to manage accounts, only the administrator account is listed. There is an option turn on a generic guest account, but nothing related to my original user account is shown. Again, this is in contrast to when I am logged into my user account (the guest account), and see exactly zero user accounts listed on the manage accounts screen.
I feel that I am pretty good at avoiding bad websites, and I do have an antivirus program installed (not that that will prevent my ... Read more
Hi and welcome to the Forum
When you refer to the generic Administrator Account do you mean the Account that is hidden in Windows 7? If so did you activate it using this:
Built-in Administrator Account - Enable or Disable If you did the above then this is strange as forgetting the "Hidden admin account you must have at least one ordinary Admin account in Windows 7. You can't operate the system without one!!
I have a IMAP Hotmail account running on Outlook 2007 and suddenly it doesn't delete emails when I use the delete function on the toolbar and only sometimes deletes when I use the keyboard delete key, only then after going to another folder and coming back to my in box. I have tried running Account Setting again, even reloading my account. I used my Office 2007 disc to delete Outlook and reload it and still the problem persists. I have used Outlook 2007 and Hotmail for years without this problem. Has Windows 10 done something in an update that might cause this or what else could be my problem?
I recently loaded a pop3 Hotmail account to my Outlook 2010 since I was having problems with the MAPI Hotmail sending multiple copies of emails with large attachments.

Hi, We recently purchased a used computer with a fresh install of 7 Enterprise. The user accounts ready to use were the Admin created on install, the Guest & the built-in administrator (which is not active).
I renamed the Admin user, but the document folders still say Admin - the new name I gave it isn't showing up. So I went into Local Users & Groups, & the Admin still shows Admin as the name with the new name I gave it as the Full Name.
Can I change the main Admin name? I tried it & then tried to open Windows Explorer & got an error saying "No mapping between account names and security IDs was done." - so I renamed it back to Admin & the error is gone.
But I need the name to match what I'm trying to give it for our network purposes, allowing this computer access on others, etc.
Hello AAAHome,
If this is the built-in Administrator account, then the tutorial below can help show you how to rename it.
Built-in Administrator Account - Change Name
If this is the default administrator account that is setup during the installation of Windows 7, then you will not be able to change the C:\Users\(user-name) folder name. Instead, as you found out, you can only change the name for the user account for how it appears in the log on screen and Start Menu. The user accout will then have both names associated to the account. The only option for this it to create a new administrator account with the name you want, that's not already associated with any other user account, copy your files over, then delete the old account from within the new one.
Hope this helps,
I'm trying to set up some accounts on my XPSP3 system. I have some accounts set up, but wanted to change some names. I know that if I change an account name, the directory name stays the same, and I didn't want to get confused later on if I was ever doing some stuff on that directory level.
I used this page to copy the settings from my account (named "Main") to a new account named "Admin". I had problems getting access to the folder while in the 3rd account, so followed the instructions here to gain access. Once I got it copied, I loaded Admin and found it looked exactly like Main, which is what I wanted.
But then, I went into Main and most everything was gone, and XP was acting as if it was a brand new account. I then went into Documents and Settings and found there were now TWO Main accounts. "Main" and "Main.DARKSIDE" (DARKSIDE is the "full computer name" found in System Properties). I can tell by the directory sizes that Main is the fresh, new account I see in my account list and Main.DARKSIDE appears to be my original Main account (being over 6GB in size).
I am not sure how my Main got renamed to Main.DARKSIDE. How do I get things set back so that I get my original Main back appearing in the account list?

I just checked my emails to find an email from myself, claiming to be from Paypal saying I need to update my payment information. Now obviously I haven't clicked the link or anything, but does anyone know how this could have happened? I'm running a full AVG scan on my main computer now and afterwards I will change my Microsoft password, but I'm still incredibly worried as I'm extremely careful with my passwords etc.
This is also a warning to anyone else out there getting a similar thing, DO NOT CLICK THE LINK

Here in the UK, Orange turned off their email address system. I have a GMail account and want to use this in Outlook 2007.
However, I have a POP account which receives but does not send. It is for this reason, I use the GMail account from which to send, but then make my Return address to be that of my POP address.
Anyway, GMail is an IMAP account and Outlook tries to send mail from the POP account as opposed to the Defaulted IMAP GMail account.
For Outlook 2010, 2013, etc, there are Registry fixes for this. I cannot for the life of me find a Registry fix for 2007. Does it exist, with instruction?
Many thanks in anticipation.
Win 7, Office 2007 etc etc.
I have moved a few people off of orange over the last few weeks and then closed down the account on outlook 2007 and 2010
If you have the old orange still set as default account - change to the gmail account as default
also switch off the send and receive - not needed for IMAP
otherwise , not sure what you are trying to do
You can also delelte the account and the POP email will remain - BUT backup and test the PST file first
Hi - this is a weird issue ...
I have an administrator account named hp_admin.
Today, when I tried to log in to that account, nothing happened.
There was no error message, and the login window just refreshed.
I tried to login many times, but same result.
Rebooted, same result.
My other but limited account still works OK.
I checked the profile folders, and found that what should be hp_admin has is named TB_admin.
I recall that when I setup the laptop the was initially TB_admin, and I later renamed it. But it has worked just fine for 2 years!
And how to I fix this weired issue???
BTW - I find that if I callup cmd.exe, I can run as admin, and dialog shows hp_admin, and the password works - but I cannot log into that account, either at startup or switch user.
I enabled the default Win7 Administrator, and logged in wuth that account.
I then switched user, and tried to login to my hp_admin account hp_admin but this time I accidentally put in the wrong password.
When I retried with the correct password ... this time it logged in OK.
Have disabled the Administrator, and hp_admin is working OK.
I recently renamed both the domain administrator account and the local administrator account on all the machines in the 2003 AD domain by using the default domain GPO.
This worked fine except for one, my laptop, which is an XP Pro and wasn't on for a while.
Now I find the laptop still has the old administrator account and I've tried to do gpupdate but it's still not working.
I have rebooted several times.
Any ideas why the administrator account is not getting renamed by policy?
This is more frustrating than anything. I installed Windows 10, and after signing in with my Microsoft account I remembered to rename the PC from the DESKTOP-blah name to something more memorable. However, when I look at the devices in my Microsoft account settings (https://account.microsoft.com/devices) I still see the old name. I've removed the PC from the MS account devices, and switched to a local account on the PC then back to my MS account again, but it re-adds the PC with the old name each time.
Any ideas how I get my MS account to forget about the old name altogether?
An update:
I reset Windows through Settings/Update & Security/Recovery, removing my user account, applications and settings completely and starting again with a local account. It came up with a new computer name, DESKTOP-blah2, so I renamed it and restarted before I signed in with my Microsoft account for the first time.
After verifying my account with the Authenticator app and waiting for a bit, lo and behold the computer re-appears in my devices list online - With the DESKTOP-blah2 name! How is that even possible given that it had that name for less than a minute, during which time I was only signed in with a local account!??
I think at this point I might give up as it seems I'm doomed to see my computer referred to by its silly default name forever
Unless anyone has any bright ideas?

Recently renewed a harddrive on a Acer Laptop for my sister.
During setup of windows, a/virus, malware and MS office etc. I used a name for the administrator and user account with a password.
Since, she asked for the names to be changed, this being done with no problems.
But seen when doing a search for some files, the old name has been seen in certain folder/files.
Why are they still seen when the names have been changed successfully, can these be changed or deleted.

How do i move my email with all my runs from a GMAIL account to a OUTLOOK.COM account?
thanks in advance
Hi... I think we need more details. Could you join the site so you can reply in this thread?
What App was used to capture the runs? What device did the tracking?
Where are you trying to view the runs? What output (Google Maps, App "X", printout maps)???
On the surface it looks like you are asking about an email... Which you could forward. I think what you really want is how to move a service to a new email address as the reporting default without loosing all your stored data, yes?
So more details are critical.
I have several e-mail accounts and use Live Mail (2011) to handle them.
Two of my accounts are associated with my own web-address via 1and 1.co.uk and two are outlook.com ones. When a message is sent to either of the accounts associated with my web address they are received correctly but also appear to be forwarded to one of my outlook accounts.
How do I avoid this?
On my web address I have set it to forward it to my home address - look at your web setting to see if you have set this facility up.3 more replies
Hi there,
I recently tried to rename the built-in administrator account to superAdmin on my Windows 8.1 by running the following in the command line:
wmic useraccount where name='Administrator' call rename name='superAdmin'Now when I open the superAdmin account, I see the following:
My start menu has also changed to the following (all other apps do not show):
I see a folder named TEMP, along with the superAdmin folder in Users.
This is getting me worried; I feel like I have messed up the system.
Could anyone please help me out by showing how I can get the default built-in admin account back?
Hoping to receive a response soon.
Thank you

i got a new hp pavilion laptop; os is windows 7 home premium 64-bit. when i booted it up the first time, there was already an administrator account on it, bearing the name of the company who had sent me the laptop. i renamed the user account and the computer to my name; but the paths connected to the user profile and the user profile itself (under "users" on the c drive) still have the old name. i did some reading and it seems that one has to rename the account back to the old name, then create a new administrator account with the name one wants and transfer the profile from the old account to the new one, then delete the old account if everything is working well; however, i believe that these instructions are rather for windows xp than for windows 7, and i have no idea how to copy a profile. i am not a computer geek and cannot fiddle around with the registry, and i'm new to windows 7. so: how can i rename the profile paths and my profile folder to MY name - or is it impossible to change, and will i just have to live with it? i also hope that if the situation cannot be changed, then this is simply a cosmetic 'bug' and won't cause any problems.
thanks in advance for your time and patience

Have you tried using the extensive filter and spam blocking on Hotmail?
If you are usiing OE also go to it and export your address as an .csv file then go to this url and import them to your new hotmail account.
I don't know if their is a provision to import them from your old Hotmail account.
I cant access my HOTMAIL accounts- HOTMAIL support?
I learned about Microsofts new policy of not allowing you to send email from Hotmail using its own products Outlook and Outlook Express unless you are paying an additional fee, when I replied to a (Hotmail) email while using OE. After sending my reply I received an error message that OE could not access the account. It then proceeded to DELETE all my previous email message in outlook express for this account.
A web search then led me discover that this account was one of those now requiring payment of a fee to send mail using Outlook or OE instead of logging on to the website. (They are doing this in stages so some HOTMAIL accounts still allow the free use and access with Outlook/OE.)
I then tried to sign on to my account using another Microsoft product Internet Explorer- initially everything looked unchanged,

I've never used Outlook or Outlook Express in any form my self, so I can only offer some limited suggestions for sorting this out.
First: have you tried deleting all cookies and accessing the account? If using XP/2k -- it may even be helpful to try creating a new User Profile and logging in under that, this will ensure you have an entirely new web cache, index.dat and cookie folder.
Try accessing the account from another computer and see if you get in that way.
Exactly what is the benefit to use your outlook.com account as an account when you first boot your fresh win 8 laptop?
I helped my bro in law along the way with his new laptop and he proceeded to use his outlook.com account details as the login.
Call me old school but I've always had separate local accounts on a home machine! What's the benefit now then?
When you change your outlook.com password I guess you need to remember it to log in!? Also are you required to have an internet connection at all tines? Or does it cache the last credentials!?
Hope you van help, I'm very new to win 8 and in about half can hour about to boot up my new machine with win 8 pre installed!!

Microsoft Account - Switch to in Windows 8
Hope this helps,
So I currently have a "live" account, is it possible for me to move to a outlook account without losing my account information. Example being my xbox live account is attached to my live email, if I moved to outlook would I lose my membership, purchased movies, xbox music subscription and xbox G points I have earned? Thanks for any input.
You could add an account & leave your present account intact.
If you want screenshots let me know.
I have used Hotmail for over a decade. When I got a Windows Phone it was awesome to see everything come together with my contacts so that my Hotmail account was the primary contact list with links to Facebook, LinkedIn etc.
I've been a Windows Insider since January. Just in the past week or so I've noticed I have a new calendar called "Microsoft Account" showing up on all my devices. And now in Windows 10 People App it asks if I want to add new contacts to my Microsoft Account or Outlook. What is this about? I have not linked any other Outlook\Microsoft accounts to my Windows 10 device. It would seem that suddenly Office\Outlook is now divorced from my Microsoft Account or at best operating in parallel. Does anyone know what is going on? Why are they creating yet another account database? I want all my contacts in one place and not across two account databases.
Same as you...
I suppose (hope) it will be rectified in a future build/version.
I have Outlook 2000 Inbox set up as follows:
( Notice the circle around the "Account" tab) But, my friend has Outlook XP and can't get the "Internet Account" tab to show which Internet Account (i.e. Comcast, Yahoo, AOL, etc) that the incoming email is from like mine is with Outlook 2000.
He can only get the "tab" to be displayed that states "Internet Account" but the tab's contents (unlike mine) remain blank when he gets mail from any of the accounts.
Is this done differently in XP compared to 2000 Outlook??? How can I get his "Internet Account" tab to show which account incoming mail is from like mine is in the pic???
I need to copy all my addresses from 1 hotmail account to a 2nd. I would like to do this in a way I do not need to type in each address
I had several hotmail accounts that I could view in the Nokia 930 windows 10.
I have not installed any apps (however there wsa an app that I do not know what was doing there with the text showing @\user\microsoft\windowsapp\ etc. the text was longer an I was not able to remove the app)
However the problem of the emails did not arise after the above app was mysteriously installed but happened before.
It looked like that one specific account was inexplicably confused with another email account...e when I was tapping on one Icon app of hotmail account I would actually read the email of another account.
My main Email setup account within windows phone setup had disappeared and when trying to re added it was saying that it was already setup.
Therefore I could only but hard rest my phone. I have hard reset it four times now and every time I setup the account with my main Email account everything is fine but when I add another email account it all goes wrong with similar variations of the above issue and now I even have an error message saying the account the I added
Now I am getting has the settings out of date. I tap FIX button there is some activity but nothing happens.
How can I fix this!!!

Ever since new years eve I have been unable to log onto my hotmail account. It keeps asking me to re-enter my password. does anyone know why that might be???? Thank you
did hotmail state this on your login failure?>>
Type your .NET Passport sign-in e-mail address and password correctly. Remember, passwords are case-sensitive.
Hotmail is pretty vague as to the failure for the sign in mainly due to the server registering either one as an error.
if u are certain that your password is correct then the e-mail address u keyed in might be incorrect and vice versa.
maybe try creating a new password?? (as suggested if u can't remember it by Hotmail)

Could you explain The account policies that govern your use of Hotmail are detailed in our Online Help. Please note that you must sign into your Hotmail account at least once every 30 days. If you do not, your account will become inactive. After being inactive for 90 days, it will be deleted. You may want to save this message so you always have a handy link to this important information.
Example if I have a Hotmail address [email protected] and I do not sign in Hotmail account explain if I do not my account will become inactive. After being inactive for 90 days, it will be deleted so I will not beable to get my [email protected] back again
From Hotmail Help page - Close Account:
If you don't sign in for 30 days (or within the first 10 days), your account will become inactive. At that time, any messages in your account will be deleted and inbound e-mail will be refused. Your Passport will still function, and your Hotmail e-mail name will be reserved. If your account stays inactive for a further 90 days, it is permanently deleted, and your e-mail name is no longer reserved. Click to expand...

Are you logging into the account by way of web browser or by the new Mail app? For older WLM and Hotmail as well as Live accounts you would want the Windows Essentials 2012 over the new Mail app.
Logging in directly online you would add the destination is as a new contact if not already in your address book there so the emails being sent will go through. I find that every time I go to send an email out to a new contact and forget to add the address in first as a new contact the draft will be saved. I see that with both the old Live accounts as well as at times with the accounts at outlook.com
I hope somebody can help me. I'm not sure where to turn. I had a hotmail account with all my contacts. This Saturday one of my horses is running in the Kentucky Derby and I had a picture of the horse I sent out in a mass mailing to all my contacts.
Hotmail closed my account and will not let me back into it. It is now my understanding that you can't send such mailings or they will stop the service for you.
Is there any way I can appeal to them to get at least my contacts? I don't know who to write or contact to request this. I would certainly hope that someone has had this problem and can tell me how I can at least get my contacts.

Winter weather and cycling
Make more informed decisions about how and when to ride safely during different weather conditions.
Cyclists cannot be pigeonholed into a one-fits-all group. Hobbyists, families, road cyclists, mountain bikers, commuters and keep fit enthusiasts, to name just a few, all have one thing in common; their love of cycling exposes them to the vagaries of the UK weather! Whilst we cannot change the weather, we can help you to plan and make more informed decisions about where and when to cycle, what to wear and how to prepare for different weather conditions.
Key to preparation is keeping a close eye on the forecast and the Met Office offers cyclists a range of weather information and weather-related warnings to be able to help them travel safely.
In this article Cycling UK shares helpful weather-related advice for cyclists on the road in winter.
Cycling in snow and ice
Snow and ice will severely impact your travel plans including your commute to and from work and getting around your community and local area. Alternative travel plans may provide a safer form of travel.
Cycling accidents on ice can often result in physical injury, so learning to read the weather signs and identify potential danger spots on your journey is essential.
At certain times of year lying water freezes over on thousands of roads. Ice becomes as much of a problem for cyclists as the sun low in the sky. Cycling UK, the national cycling charity, has also prepared cycling in icy conditions, and gathered advice from motoring organisations for driving around cyclists in icy conditions.
Charity Sustrans is passionate about more people travelling by foot or by bike and have provided some tips for winter proofing your bike as well as an article that dispels five myths about weather and cycling.
For information on what to look out for when the temperature drops, visit our guest blog Ice time for a ride: reading the signs on the Cycling UK website.
Gritting information for cyclists
Information about salting and gritting of roads is available on many local authority websites. We have listed links to information from England and Scotland.

If you have a child who shows interest in playing the piano, think carefully before you send him/her to piano lessons because the wrong teacher can kill off the child's creativity. That's almost what happened to me when I was 6yrs old: I didn't like what I was being taught - I was bored - and I stopped the lessons after a couple of years. And I might never have played again if I hadn't fallen ill with appendicitis and ended up recovering from the operation while my father was also recovering from an illness, which meant we were house-bound together for a few weeks with little else to do but mess about on the piano. Back then, there was no daytime tv; the only source of entertainment we had in the house was the radio and the piano. Dad fancied himself as a crooner, a singer in the mould of Frank Sinatra (he loved Frank Sinatra, so do I) and he could knock out a few tunes on the piano, albeit in a very basic manner. But he played well enough to teach me how to play the song Blue Moon, using the only chords he knew: C, A minor, F and G (he used those chords in that order, regardless of the tune). I was hooked. I'd started playing "by ear", and was soon discovering new chords and how to make them work in other tunes.
A few months later, a Hammond organ shop opened in nearby Chester-le-Street, which is where I went to school. I remember like it was yesterday, peering through misty windows at these fabulous instruments, dying to have a go. Enter my Dad. A few days later, he'd arranged for me to do go into the shop and it went well. The manager took a bit of a shine to me, and from then on, I was in there whenever I could be: school lunchtimes, after school, all day Saturday, and within a few weeks I was playing better than the shop manager (according to my Dad). Fridays in Chester-le-Street was market day, which meant there were lots of shoppers around and when I played during school lunch hour, crowds of people would gather in the doorway of the shop and spill onto the road to watch, listen to and applaud this kid playing epic themes like the Dam Busters and 633 Squadron. Applause! I had caught the bug.
Chester-le Street might strike you as an unlikely place to set up a shop selling expensive organs made in Chicago, USA, but workingman's clubs were springing up all over the North East of England and they all wanted these high-tech instruments from America to replace the pianos in their concert rooms, and Chester-le Street happened to be the best place to distribute them from. They sold so quickly, there weren't enough organists around to play them (the clubs' piano players struggled to make the transition to organs), and it wasn't long until the shop manager was asking my dad if I could join the rota of organists he'd compiled and was sending out to the clubs. That weekend, aged 13, I played my first professional gig, and it wasn't long until I was making more playing at weekends than my Dad made working an entire week as a supervisor in a cable factory.
My proud, wonderful father passed away when I was 16. By then, I was resident organist at one of the better clubs (Houghton-le-Spring "Big" Club) and I soon bought a car that I couldn't drive until I became old enough to have a licence, i.e. 17.
In my early 20's, after year long stint in a band on a cruise ship sailing around the Caribbean having a great time, I decided it was time to take music a bit more seriously and became involved with a few local bands around Newcastle, one of which included singer Brian Johnson (see above) who soon after joined AC/DC. That led me to playing with Splinter who were signed to George Harrison's Dark Horse label. I met George when we played the Hammersmith Odeon, and he would turn up quite often at shows when I was in Eric Clapton's band, 10 or so years later. Somewhere around this time, I was recruited by Geordie band Lindesfarne for a UK festival tour which included Knebworth and Glastonbury, and soon after was hired by Glallagher and Lyle for a tour and an album. After that, I was head-hunted by Dire Straits who I joined in 1980 as their first keyboard player, and remained with them until the band broke up in 1992.
People point out that when I joined Dire Straits, the band turned into the huge, stadium-filling outfit that people remember, and ask how much of a part I played in the transformation. Before I joined, Mark's songs were written for a guitar only band. He wanted to introduce another dynamic and expand musically. I gave him both.
One of the songs we recorded when we were making the Love over Gold record was Private Dancer, which didn't make the record because it sounded daft being sung by a bloke. But it was perfect for Tina Turner, and I recorded it with her, which led to me becoming her musical director. Her Private Dancer album went to number one in the US while we were on tour there. The party that night at a Mexican restaurant in San Antonio, Texas, is one none of us will forget. Or can remember.
Working with Tina was every bit as good as you'd hope it would be. One of the reasons I'm where I am now is because of her River Deep, Mountain High record. Playing it with Tina for the first time, in a rehearsal studio on Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles (S.I.R), was a special moment. I had a similar experience, a year or so later, with Bob Dylan. Just a few years before I recorded with him (I played on the Infidels and Empire Burlesque albums), I'd been a struggling musician lying on my apartment floor in the North of England, listening to his Desire album, with no idea what lay just around the corner. The first song I recorded with him, when I heard his voice in the headphones, was special. I got on well with Bob. I first met him at the 3rd gig I ever played with Dire Straits, which was at the the Roxy on Sunset Blvd in Hollywood. He turned up at the show and came back to the hotel (Sunset Marquis) afterwards and he and Mark jammed for us in Mark's room. Welcome to LA!
But I had the most fun in that period when I was in Eric Clapton's band (1987 until 1990). Eric often came to see Dire Straits during the Brothers in Arms tour, and would stand watching at my side of the stage, and when the tour was over, he invited me to join his band. And what a band it was: Steve Ferrone, Nathan East, Greg Phillingaines, Ray Cooper, Tessa Niles, Katy Kassoon, and Phil Palmer. My first experience as his keyboard player was to fly to New York with him on Concorde, to record the song After Midnight, for a Michelob beer ad. It was a brilliant band - people still regard it as Eric's best ever - and a brilliant few years. Eric recently described the Journeyman album, which we made during my time with him, as his favourite of all his records. I very reluctantly left his band in 1990 to rejoin Dire Straits and co-produce the On Every Street album.
On the subject of Concorde: when I joined Eric's band, there was no second guitarist. When Eric later expanded the band, Mark Knopfler became the second guitarist for a while and when he left, Phil Palmer took over. The first time Phil and I met was in BA's first class lounge at Heathrow, on our way to New York for the start of what was the second of Eric's back-to-back US tours I'd been involved with. When we were informed the flight had been delayed until the following morning because of a technical fault, I told the BA representative it was vital we arrive in time for Eric's show and suggested she put us on the Concorde flight that was due to leave. And she did.
After Dire Straits' On Every Street tour, in 1992, I took a few years off to spend time with my children (twins, born 1989) and started working from home making music for TV dramas, series and documentaries, as well as playing on albums with other people. I've produced music for movies - I've even directed one - and more recently I've been making music for TV ads, and I've recently co-written and co-produced an album for LEGACY (called 3 Chord Trick). Very recently, I've been writing songs for an Italian mega star's next album.
Here are some of the people and bands I've played and recorded with:
Dire Straits Eric Clapton Bob Dylan Tina Turner Bee Gees Gerry Rafferty Trevor Horn Splinter Prefab Spout The Blessing Escape Club Ian Drury Bo Diddley Buddy Guy Billy Joel Lou Reed Dave Stewart David Knopfler Gallagher and Lyle Bill Wyman Mary Hopkins Shakin Stevens Matt Monroe Mark Knopfler Rory Block Westernhagen Mick Hucknall Joan Armatrading Lindesfarne Geordie Brian Johnson Jimmy Nail Mike Brecker Sting Robert Cray Renato Zero Al Green George Harrison Pacifico Legacy Robbie Williams Jon Anderson

text: Festive policing campaign launched in Aberdeenshire Published 06 December 2017 Police and partners in Aberdeenshire have today, Wednesday, December 6, launched the highly successful 'Safer Streets' festive policing campaign.The operation which also runs through the summer months at games and shows across the region has helped cut incidents of violence, with serious assaults in particular down over 21% in Aberdeenshire so far this year.The operation will see additional high-visibility patrols across Aberdeenshire and officers will be targeting anti-social behaviour, theft and violence.Local Area Commander Chief Inspector Murray Main said: "The North East of Scotland is a great place to live, work and visit. Across Aberdeenshire our many towns and villages will be lively during the day and at night while people prepare for and enjoy the festive period."We are encouraging people to go out and enjoy themselves but to do so in a responsible manner."We will be working closely with partner agencies including Aberdeenshire Council, the other emergency services, those within the third sector along with the licensed trade, business communities and those who help convey people safely to and from home to ensure those who need help are supported."There will be an increase in joint hig h-visibility police and Criminal Justice Social Work patrols and additional visits to licensed premises will take place throughout the lead up to the Christmas and New Year period to ensure that people have a safe and enjoyable time within our towns and villages." Mike Ogg, Aberdeenshire Health and Social Care Partnership Manager, said: "Working alongside our partners from Police Scotland, the licensed trade, Aberdeenshire Council's Criminal Justice Social Work and Community Substance Misuse Service can help to ensure that people enjoy the atmosphere at venues and in town centres across Aberdeenshire during the festive period, without worrying about their safety. We will be delighted if we can continue to give them this peace of mind once again this Christmas, and ultimately help to prevent people from becoming unnecessarily involved in the criminal justice system."Kat Gordon, Chair of the Garioch Pub Watch Scheme, said: "There are a good number of well organised Pub Watch Schemes right across Aberdeenshire which are supported by both the Local Authority and Police Scotland. "Working together with the vast majority of licensed premises in the area, the Pub Watch Scheme helps licensees' and staff maintain standards and deal with the relatively small but often persistent number of individuals who cause issues in, at or near licensed premises. The scheme helps to create a secure night time economy for people to work and enjoy and the Festive Safer Streets initiative is another important opportunity to further reduce crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour across the area." David McGown, Assistant Chief Officer for the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, said: "The use of alcohol continues to play a major part in contributing to fire deaths in the home. The Fire Service urges people to avoid cooking at all when under the influence of alcohol."Officers answering 999 calls from intoxicated people often struggle to get details of where the incident is and what is involved, which makes it much harder for them to know what resources to send."Being unable to get reliable, accurate information also means that firefighters can be sent to incidents without vital information regarding people involved and the risks they may face."When someone is trapped in a fire this could mean our teams may not know where to focus their search, which therefore exposes them to dangerous environments for longer as they attempt to locate the person."It is vital that your home has working smoke alarms, enough so that everyone in your home will be alerted in the event of fire. You should also consider fitting a heat alarm in your kitchen."Chief Inspector Main added: "We want to ensure the minority do not get the opportunity to ruin it for those who are looking to go out and enjoy themselves over the festive period."A small number of people will look to take advantage of the situation to cause issues or commit retail crimes, including shoplifting or other thefts such as stealing handbags, purses or wallets."The festive period is one of the busiest times of the year for police and our partners. It's a great time for people to catch up with friends and family but don't leave yourself vulnerable. Getting involved in violence or anti-social behaviour can have a lasting impact not just on a victim, but on you and your family so don't risk it. Remember, your actions are your responsibility."Officers across Scotland will also be concentrating their efforts on preventing and detecting drink and drug-driving in support of the annual festive drink/drug drive campaign."The campaign will see extra visibility and activity throughout the country, including across the North East, to tackle the small minority of reckless road users who continue to break the law. Drink or drug driving is never worth the risk." Contact Details Call 101 for non-emergencies and general enquiries, in an emergency call 999. If you have information about a crime you can also contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Jefferson Township supervisors are set to bid their primary summer paving project next month.
About 3,200 feet of Gardner Road — which runs through portions of Hidden Valley Resort — will be blacktopped. Supervisors will work with the state Department of Transportation to determine the specific areas in need of resurfacing.
Supervisor Tom Kerila said the township is still reviewing other roadways in need of possible patch work, berm and ditch work and sealcoating.
"As far as a set plan for what else needs done, we don't have that right now," Kerila said. "We'll tackle other projects as they come, but we need (the Gardner Road bid) to take place before we see where we are at."
Supervisors Bruce Barron and Dennis Troup and three township employees will perform the minor road repairs.
Township Secretary Melanie Peters would not disclose the amount of liquid fuel funds set aside for summer paving. She said she didn't want to compromise the Gardner Road bidding process.

Hey y'all! Today I wanted to talk about something that's been on my mind lately and that is the idea of "balance." Particulary balance when it comes to the way we eat and exercise. Finding that balance between "healthy foods" and "not healthy food" or tracking your macros and intuitive eating or working out and taking rest days… it can ben hard. It can be especially hard for those of us who come from a past with body image issues, disordered eating, or the fear of losing control. I can say that I have found a balance that works for me, but I am by no means perfect and still have days I find myself struggling to feel balanced at all.
First of all, "balance" is going to mean something different to everyone. We are all unique individuals with different mental and physical needs, we should not judge others on their idea of balance.
"Balance: a condition in which different elements are equal or in the correct proportions."
When I think of "balance" with food I think of eating in a way that nourishes your body, is health consious (not obsessed), and you enjoy other things in moderation just because you want to. Theres no guilt attached to indulging and no feeling reward attached to eating "healthy." It's simply how you eat and you make choices based on how you feel at that point in time.
On social media, I see alot of talk about finding balance. And for many they look to flexible dieting to do that, or… they've become too obsessed with flexible dieting and they want to find balance through more intuitive eating. I think for alot of people that I see, flexible dieting has really helped them overcome restrictive eating. It did so for me. I realized that there are no "good foods" and "bad foods" and that I could eat what I wanted and reach my fitness goals. It also helped me understand how the body uses different amounts of each macro nutrient: protein, carbs, and fats. Learning about macro counting really helped me when recovering from my eating disorders, because I was afraid of so many foods. White bread, rice, sugar, oils, artificial sweetners, and anything that I thought was "bad." Flexible dieting helped me to find more of a "balance" when it came to food choice.
For someone that is competing in body building, tracking your macros and following a strict diet is not because they have an eating disorder. It's because it takes precision to reach that goal. But if you're not competing, tracking every bite of food you eat may not be healthy. It can turn into an obsession. Counting macros is an amazing tool, and allows you to eat a wide variety of food, but when your My Fitness Pal app turns into something you can't live without – it becomes its own type of eating disorder.
Looking back, before I started prep I was way too strict with myself. I would still track my macros almost every day but listened to my body. I ate more if I needed too. I did enjoy the occasional "cheat meal" (I'll make another post on why this actually is not a good term to use) with friends, but usually felt guilty afterwards. I was still worried about what I ate. I felt like I "couldn't" eat the pizza or cake in my school caf because it couldn't fit in my macros. I know I was keeping my fitness goals in mind, but I could have been more balanced.
Moving forward, after my next show, I plan to use macro counting simply as a guide and tool for me to check in on how I'm fueling my body. I've been doing it long enough that I should feel confident in just choosing some grilled chicken, rice, and veggies and know approximately how much I'm consuming without feeling the need to always weight it out and track it in an app.
I will be reverse dieting to build my metabolism, so I will need to track for a while so my coach can know what's going on and what he needs to change. But once I get to a place that I feel my metabolism is running very efficiently, I want to challenge myself to intuitive eating and not track for a while. I think it's good for anyone to take a break once in a while and it will be really good for me mentally. Of course I'll still be eating nutrient dense foods, but it won't be so meticulous. I also want to be able to just enjoy college and go out for spontaneous pizza and ice cream.
Pizza is not what's unhealthy, its worring that it's going to make you fat is what's unhealthy. Having a perfect diet is not what's healthy, but being at peace with food is healthy.
Let me know what you think of balance.
