Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

For the past 5-6 days, Windows Live stopped working with my hotmail account. When i try to synch it manually by hitting the send/receive option, i get an error message saying the server is not responding. or sometimes it just stays in "synchronizing folder list" and does not finish.

anyone else experience this?

i've been having this same problem, did a lot of searching, couldn't find anything specific. finally, i just logged on to hotmail from my computer and cleaned out as much unneeded email as i could, and that seemed to fix the problem.
I also set up some more folders and moved stuff i wanted to keep out of my inbox. I heard one person say you want to keep your inbox lean.
Good luck, keep us posted.

I logged out of live and logged back in and now it works.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

guys check out "seven" . they have a beta out now which syncs hotmail,gmail, yahoo by push using one service. works great!

you can sync all 3 at same time as well instead of using exchange and live and yahoo go.

Link please?

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

I find it interesting that several people have been experiencing this issue around the same time. There is another thread on this in the General section.

What i find odd, is that i have never had a problem with window live on my titan...ever. It has been solid and working as it should. Until, of course, 4 days ago. I had not been installing/uninstalling anything or rearranging anything. It litterally just stopped syncing with no apparent cause.

I have tried all the suggestions in both threads as well as the suggestions in the links provided in the threads. Nothing has worked. Still not syncing. It is very irritating.

Has anyone heard of alternative fixes? In one post it looks like microsoft was currently working to resolve this known issue, but had not resolved it yet.

any insight is, greatly, appreciated!

Mogul is not in the list of supported phones for it.
Also, not sure if you need to pay to use this service?

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

dammit it stopped working again.
logging in and out of live doesn't help either now.
I'm starting to think it is a server problem with microsoft.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

yeah, i am wondering that too. It is definately a fluke thing.

I tried seven and it just wasn't for me. I don't care for the today plugin. I always liked the live plugin. It has always worked great, since i purchased the mogul, until now.I have the sprint "everything plan" so it isn't like it expired or anything.

The fact that i made no changes to the software or hardware makes me wonder if it is, actually, a server problem.

Hope it gets worked out soon. I didn't realize how handy it was until it was taken away from me! waaaa.

anyone else having this problem? It is really starting to get old!

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

I have this issue all the time. the only solution I found so far is to soft-rest.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

I have not been able to sync my hotmail for a couple of weeks either. Soft reset doesn't help, cleaning my inbox doesn't help. I also re flashed my phone, and a clean install did nothing either. It definately looks like a server issue. Mine starts to sync....I can even see where it tries to sync my custom folders, so it's seeing the folders. But my inbox on the phone is empty, and it always errors out. I end up using the browser to access my hotmail, which works fine, but it sucks that Live is crippled :angry7:

I can sync live emails fine but when it comes to attachments it will not download it, never had this problem before.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

my just started working again today.
Hopefully it is fixed for good now.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

Same issue here. Sync fails every time. Has been happening for over a week. Also, cannot log into hotmail via the web on the Mogul.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

I recently started getting sync errors as well. I ended up giving up on syncing other folders besides the Inbox and Sent Items, as it only seems to consistently work OK for these. Some of the others may work OK for a few times and then cause a sync error. Oh well, at least the Inbox is my most important folder, so I've been putting up with it.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

yep it must have been a server issue, because mine is working now too. man that was freaking annoying.

bradleyem,
you, precisely, described what i have done. sheesh. hopefully the shenanigans are over.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

Does anyone know where to download the most recent version of Windows Live for Windows Mobile? Mine still won't sync or event sign me in. My version is FUBAR!!

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

I have a Moto Q with Sprint *hangs head in shame*. I've been reading these forums for a week now. I'm getting a Mogul later today (YAY!).

I haven't been able to sync my hotmail since 6/27. It starts to sync and eventually I get an error message. I get a different error message each time. Probably 3-4 different error messages that rotate. I think windows live is having problems.

With all the problems I've had with my Q (lots), that has never been one of them. My hotmail has never failed me. Now, out of nowhere, it won't sync.

I don't think it's my phone. I blame this piece of sh*t for everything that goes wrong in my life but I don't think this hotmail problem is our phones.

*checks mailbox again* I need my Mogul.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

Shadedsoul,

I went from a Q to a Mogul. You will be very pleased. The Mogul has so much more to offer. But the Hotmail issue will be the same!

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

nah i don't think it is your phone. i have never had problems either until 5 days ago(or so). It did, magically work this morning, but the celebration was short lived. A couple of hours later, it was giving me the error again.

I actually think there must, trully, be a server issue on microsoft's part. Nothing else can explain the inconsistancy. This issue, for me, is very new. Like i said, i have never had a problem with hotmail on my mogul.

it is rediculously annoying. i am hoping it gets resolved soon. Soft resets have never remedied the problem in my case.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

Anyone have a sloution yet? I heard form adv tech support it was a micrsoft issue but that was for a sprint tech. I can suggest a bandade temp solution and that is to forward your hotmail account to your sprint account.

Re: Help! - Live not synching my hotmail
 

Had this issue on both my Mogul and Treo 800w. The solution given to me and didn't work for another user but they got it to work. See this thread:
