Diane,

I do not receive an error message. Both Outlook and Hotmail mail works
perfectly, but in fact neither the contact or the calendar sync. No error
message. No nothing.
hmmmmm

click the status button on the connector toolbar and see if its connecting
to the contacts. The calendar only connects if you have a paid acct.

I clicked on the send receive button but and it syncs ultra fast. Under the
task tab in the progress window, it has green check marks next to MSN -
Sending and MSN: Folder: Inbox Synchronizing headers.

Also, I have a live hotmail plus account that I pay.

BTW, Thanks for helping me with this problem.

Jose

at the bottom of my outlook window is blank. There is no server status button
or notice.

I wish I could attach a picture to this note but I can't.

As of right now, Microsoft doesn't consider Hotmail Plus a "premium" account
and therefore does not allow you to sync your calendar and contacts
automatically. You have to go to a higher plan which starts at $5/month I
believe instead of the $20/year Hotmail Plus. I've been suggesting that
Hotmail Plus should be included in this but nobody seems to listen so far.

Diane and Eagle117

I looked at upgrading to a "premium" account but as I read I only found that
it includes other services (see below) but does not include a true sync
between outlook and hotmail (contacts, calendar) and in fact it should also
be linked to messenger. I'm surprised that Microsoft does not offer this
since it would allow information to be centralized in Outlook as a database
with Hotmail and Messenger to be alternative delivery options. Thank you for
your help.

I'm having a problem with this as well for a few days now...everything was
working just fine for weeks and then one day all 4 of my hotmail addys
stopped working. I have submitted a Tech Support ticket via one of my
accounts and so hopefully we'll get some sort of relief soon.

In the meantime, on their help page from within Windows Live Mail, I saw a
few help posts by MS in regards to "How to setup Outlook/Outlook Express to
use hotmail accounts." (Not in those exact words but close) and what I read
on both of the posts is that you HAVE to have an account in order to use
either program to read your mail now....nowhere did I read that 2003 and 2007
are free to use the service anymore. And that sucks if MS changed the rules
on us mid-stream. So I'll wait patiently for them to answer my support ticket
and post back here with the results.
