My web mail is not opening in VISTA Mail. I have spent hours with Norton and my ISP, and each says everything is fine, but I have four addresses and only one received 2 messages in two days. Both today, one was a trial that I sent and it sent it four times. Never sending any more.
View 6 RepliesThey have Vista and Windows Mail with email through Telus. They were set up with an IMAP account but she was encountering problems with "mailbox too full". So I decided to switch her to POP3 not realizing that I had to do that through Telus not just through the Tools, Accounts area. I created a new POP3 account, deleted the IMAP account, when I realized that deleted all her messages from the inbox I deleted the POP3 account and recreated the IMAP account. Then I contacted Telus and found out they had to make the IMAP to POP3 change on their end. I saved the messages she wanted to keep and had Telus make the change.
I then deleted the IMAP account and created a new POP3 account and sent a test message to it. I checked the webmail and the message showed up in webmail but when I clicked send/receive the system checks for messages and says "no new messages" but the messages disappear from webmail. At no point do I get an error message...........
I work for a school district and I am having trouble with one Vista Machine. This is only one of two Vista machines in the entire district. The problem is that using IE7 we can not connect to webmail (gmail) provided by our ISP. We just recently transfered over to gmail and had no problems with email prior to it. All other staff in the district can connect and use email with no problems. On the Vista machine I can connect using a different browser, no problems. I have tried resetting all settings in IE7 to the defaults. I have tried compareing the settings with the other Vista machine that does work. I have tried running in safe mode with networking, running without add-ons, smashing it with a hammer(not really), nothing works.

I was just wondering if it is possible to "open" a Windows XP bkf file in Vista?
I have recently moved over to a new PC and backed up all my previous PC.
But when I go to open it it doesn't recognise the file ending.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhenever I click on a link in an opened e-mail, I get a dialog box that says "Windows can't find "(path name)'. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again." I know it is because I don't have a browser window open and it takes a couple of seconds for the browser to open and that's why I get the message. If I have an internet browser window open, I don't get this dialog box. It's just annoying and I'm wondering if there is some fix for this. By the way, I use Firefox as my default browser.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have messages in my inbox. I have the preview pane open. It doesn't show anything when the message is clicked. So I double click the messages and it has the original message as an attachment in the message that opens. So I click the attachment and then it tells me that Windows cannot find such and such file, check spelling and try again. Plus all the emails that I had previously saved as save as in regular file folders as .eml on my computer instead of opening up as a regular email, they open as if the origianl email is an attachment and give me the same message. One thing I really hate about windows stuff is they are always changing the looks of it and how it works and it never works right for long before it messes up like this email stuff.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a strange problem that I have found no solution for. At regular intervals Windows Mail starts and jumps to the foregroudn on its own without any action by me that would cause this behavior. Typical example is when playing a game/watching a video in full screen mode Mail jumps up and throws the other program in the background. This is extremely annoying, any suggestions on what might be causing this? I haved no mail accounts configured in Mail and I have tried to disable all automatic notifications and automatic checing for new messages.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm beginning to encounter a real problem with my Windows Live Mail [Hotmail] account. I am referring to the 'online' display for Live Mail, as opposed to the web-based version [requires sign-on]. This displayed version;
If I click on to the Live Mail icon in the Quick Launch tray, the 'timer' symbol appears briefly......then nothing.
I have been able to restore some function by going to Control Panel>Programs and Features>Windows Live Essentials, and carrying out a Repair of Windows Live Features. As a last resort, I've also carried out a couple of instances of System Restore. I realise that this latter action is rather drastic, but I cannot think of any other alternative.
Just a thought though, is there any danger of losing all my Hotmail Accounts [I have two] Folders and Messages, should I decide to Uninstall, then Reinstall Windows Live Mail?
Solution
After earlier editing this post for the first time, I continued to look for a solution in Vista Forums, and eventually found it in Brink's post on Windows Live Suite Downloads, here;
Windows Live Suite Downloads
It was here that I noticed that the Version of Live Mail that I was using [14.0.8050.1202], was different to the updated Version mentioned in Brink's post [14.0.8064.0206].
Initially, I tried to do the update using my Firefox 3.0.12 browser, but soon realised that it was more appropriate to do the Windows Live Mail update using Internet Explorer 8 as the browser, and by downloading the full list given for the Windows Live Suite. I have yet to check, but this action [the full download] may have also resolved an ongoing 'bug' I have in Windows Live Photo Gallery.
Incidentally, prior to this I had done a check of Windows Update, and it reported that there were no Updates outstanding.
To confirm that the update was successful, this is the latest Version of Live Mail now installed in my system;
I am so frustrated with Windows IE, Live Mail, you name it. The problem I have most often is, when I am opening my mail, it takes forever to load, then I get the error message "Windows Cannot display that page" - happens everytime I try to reply or send a message. I have a 9-month old Dell Studio, and despite the motherboard crapping out the second week I had it, it's been fairly okay for my needs. I run Vista XP Home, and I hate Vista, but cannot find out how to switch back to Win.
I got off track - How the heck can I fix Live mail to work better, or do I upload another browser program? Don't laugh, I don't know all the right terms to say - so "explain it to me like I'm a six-year old." (Anybody know the movie where that line is from?)
in the last two days windows mail in Vista doesnt open any pictures in emails not attchments the pretty pics used by most commercial emailers to let you know their logo, their lastest offerings etc etc

I have an HP laptop with office. When I type out a paper in the word processor and attach it to an e-mail it cannot be opened - even on the same laptop. Any ideas/solutions? The attachment is in application/octet-stream. The two most abundant things in the world are hydrogen and stupidity.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSuddenly I cannot click on attachments to mail and have them open. This applies to any type of attachment, but most of mine are Office documents. When I try to open a Word document, it opens Word, and then a Word error message pops up saying: This file could not be found. (C:windowssystem32document name) I have unchecked the "do not allow attachments to be saved or opened" box (it was off already). I turned off email scan in Norton 360. No effect.I can, however, save the document and then open it. Which is timeconsuming.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI received a notice that a service pack was available for my Vista os. Wanting to keep my operating system current and up to date, I clicked to install it. After leaving the computer run, I returned to find the computer had rebooted as I expected it to. The problem arrived when I went to check email. Clicking on any attachment, nothing will open! Jpg, mpg, wmv, pdf, nothing opents! I went to "Tools, Options" and made sure that my settings allowed attachments to be opened. Clicking Apply, I checked all other settings, made sure all appeared correct, I clicked ok.
I rebooted the computer again, and checked mail and once again, nothing would open...This happened to me once before, and I simply went to my system restore points and restored from an earlier date. Problem solved! So thinking that this would work, and as I have my computer set restore points weekly, I went to restore to an earlier date. Unfortunately, the only restore point was at the time of the update! So even though I restored the computer, it didn't solve the problem.
I have recently done an upgrade on my internet explorer. I am unsure if my problem relates to this; however, I am unable to open documents in my emails (windows mail). I did not have any problems before hand. "This file does not have a program associated with it..." or "windows cannot find 'image.jpg'. Make sure you typed the name correctly..." " there was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found" are the error messages I receive. This is occurring so far with .pps , .pdf, and .jpg attachments on newly received messages and saved messages. Has any one had the same sort of problem or have a solution?
