| 1424831 | 2016-08-27 04:07:00 | yep - he's been confusing the two for a long time now, and been explained the difference multiple times.... | bevy121 (117) | ||
| 1424832 | 2016-08-27 05:20:00 | Theres absolutely no problems what so ever offering help :) but the instructions for one don't transcend across to the others. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1424833 | 2016-08-27 05:54:00 | wai, you are very polite to the "older" of us members' on this site, in fact you deserve a "gong" for your patience. Have the same problem with Outlook.com, Outlook.co.nz and Windows Live on the W10 lappy, Hotmail icon is still sitting on the front screen. Wife's W10 desktop has had no problems, mind you she still goes through Hotmail, which is still a "prick" popping up on the lappy. Yes we know Hotmail is now combined with Live and god knows what else. This XP pc no trouble at all accessing the lot. Touch wood quick,rofl. lurking. Ps. one wonders why many folk are still sticking with 7,8 and 8.1 and the dealer I bought the lappy off, would kick my arse if he finds out,lol. lurks. |

| 1424834 | 2016-08-27 06:08:00 | Hi Poppa John, I can see why you are very confused with all those different replies. It seems you are using MS Outlook 2016 (Part of Office 365), is that correct. Can you start that program? Have you created all 3 accounts you mentioned in MS Outlook 2016, this includes the Xtra, and the 2 Outlook Accounts? If not we need to start with that. The next issue as I understand it is how do you make one email account the default? If that is done then the other issue is as I Understand it exporting the emails on Windows Live to MS Outlook 2016. So firstly I think we need to understand where exactly you are up to. From one geriatric to another LOL |

I'm no spring chicken myself, lets say I'm a lot closer to retiring than starting in the workforce. I try to answer and treat people as I would like to be treated. BUT as SWMBO says about her boss ( and me) -- Don't wanna piss him off, his bite is worse than his bark. And Me -- As SWMBO will confirm , don't call my bluff ;) One of our female friends years ago in Aussie did :eek: As for 7 -8.1, they still work but like everything time moves on and looking at the way MS are changing many items sooner or later simply wont work with older OS's. |

| 1424836 | 2016-08-28 23:22:00 | There's very confusing posts here. Its been mentioned Outlook, but also outlook.com, and Live mail. There are different locations and actions for each. The question asked earlier asked for Outlook, which is 100% correct. I'll try to explain the differance. Windows Live Mail = Program on Computer *see below as well Outlook = Program on Computer. Part of Office 365 or Office 2013/2016 Outlook.com = Web Based Via Browser or app on W10, can include Live mail, hotmail as well. Well now that makes things clearer, just a smidgeon. Windows Live Mail (WLM) is on the Asus. I didn't really understand that there were two different Outlooks. I am trying to move everything across to The Toshiba, the main part is done. When I open the Toshiba, WLM was not installed. I bought MS Office 365 Personal & loaded it in. Outlook.com on the download instal. Not impressed.WLM was too fusy, complicated. Outlook.com is bare & primitive, t me not userfriendly. Bring back Outlooc Express . Sorry I am wandering I don't know what Outlook(no.com) looks like. Is it much different to the .com one? Canwe sort that first so that I can see which one I want. Thanks. PJ ps It looksas if I have Have the .com versionpj |

| 1424837 | 2016-08-28 23:55:00 | MS made it all too confusing by using the same name for completely different things . More than once. :-) outlook(no .com) is an email program, originally the big brother of Outlook Express . Outlook express is long gone, you will have to use Windows Essentials (WLM) , or perhaps try out Thunderbird . www.mozilla.org I prefer the old school look of older email programs, I see they changed the layout of thunderbird as well, glad I stayed with an older version. |

| 1424838 | 2016-08-29 01:52:00 | Now you will be even more confused with these mentions of Thunderbird and the like. As I read it you bought a MS Office 365 program for your new Toshiba. Has that been installed on the Toshiba and activated? If so then one of the Programs will be MS Outlook, you will find it after clicking the Start button, bottom left on your display and then scrolling down till you find Office 365 or maybe its Microsoft Office 365. I dont have Office 365 so just guessing that part When you find it then you shouls see a little downward pointing arrowhead. Click on that and you will see a lot of Programs displayed. The find one in that list that displays Microsoft Outlook or Outlook 365 and click on that. This should start you Outlook program. More late when you find this. |
