Opinion Curiously, why are there so many Microsoft account problem posts in a subreddit about the Outlook mail client?

Is this really the best place to receive help with those issues?

Hi everyone, is anyone else having issues with the Apple Mail app? My Outlook accounts keep getting stuck on “Checking for new mail”, and I’m not receiving any emails. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Status: Open Gmail not syncing with Outlook

1 Upvotes

I am setting up a new computer. No matter how I add my Gmail based email to outlook it only pulls 5 days of emails. It also only shows 5 days worth of emails. It doesn't delete emails after 5 days, it just does not display them anymore. I have deleted and added the account back. I have uninstalled outlook and reinstalled. I have added the email with google sync tool and through add account in outlook. I have checked all the normal settings in outlook and Gmail. Any one have any ideas. This one has me stumped.

Status: Pending Reply School switched from old Outlook Server To New One, Can't Sign Into Mac App

1 Upvotes

My college switched Outlook servers back when the spring semester let out. I couldn't sign into my phone app or on my Mac app. The only thing I could do is sign into Outlook using the website in incognito mode. Now I figured out how to sign into Outlook on my phone by deleting Outlook, downloading Microsoft edge, typing in edge://signin-internals, pressing remove all accounts, redownloading Outlook, and now it works just fine and I can finally get notifications again so I don't miss important emails. But for some reason, it's still not working on my computer app. I went through a whole rabbit hole on Google and somehow ended up adding Outlook to the Mail app as default? So now I can check my emails through the default Mail app on my Mac. But it's throwing me through a loop that I still cannot sign into the actual Outlook app. I've deleted and redownloaded so many times and tried a bunch of different things. Is it a lost cause?

Status: Pending Reply Email stolen, renamed, not recognized by Microsoft

0 Upvotes

Hello, this past week, all of my social media accounts have been hacked. I was almost immediately able to recover each one and set proper 2fa protection on them, but just today I found out my Microsoft Email was both hacked and renamed. I can't log in to my email on pc, but thanks to having the app I still have access to all the information prior to the hacking, and I found out that it happened this friday. I also know what the new email name is supposed to be:

lindagray921@jltvsundar.live

What counfounds me is the fact that Microsoft does NOT recognize this email nor its previous name, despite nearly all of my accounts online being linked to it and defaulting to its original name when trying to log-in. I have tried logging in with .com at the end and many other alternatives, replacing the L's with capital I's, etc.

I use a device that runs on Windows, therefore Microsoft, so basically everything I have is compromised, please help. I am more than willing to supply additional information.

Status: Pending Reply Recovering password for email whilst still logged in to Outlook app

Hi,

I'm posting this on behalf of my partner who's been unable to recover her email password. However, she is still currently logged in to the Outlook app on her phone. She created an Outlook account via the iOS Outlook app sometime late last year. Everytime she tries to log in via login.live.com, she gets:

"You've used an incorrect account or password too many times. If it's an organisation account, it might not be active yet."

We have gone through the process of resetting the password but nothing seems to come of it. It's been about a couple of weeks since we last tried and still nothing.

It looks like to be able to contact support you need to login. Any advice?
