  • etysontx E. Tyson T (@etysontx) reported

    @Outlook Fix the issue with Gmail accounts. I shouldn't have to go into google to make additional folders. This has been an issue for almost a year now. #FixWhatYouBroke

  • immer_da immerda (@immer_da) reported

    @Outlook how do we opt out our IMAP server from being crawled by your cloud sync? We do not want this feature for our users! Is this even legal? You are phishing for our passwords!

  • abulletaway69 Bullet but spooky | AbulletAway#9053 | ♥️'s 🦈&🔪 (@abulletaway69) reported

    Dear @Microsoft, @Outlook, I open you support chat for Outlook on my phone. The person responding doesn't read my question correctly, responds with an answer that has nothing to do with my problem and never responds again. 1/3

  • realDotNetDave David McCarter (Microsoft MVP) (@realDotNetDave) reported

    @Outlook I turned off some services yesterday and now Outlook won't work. How do I fix? I tried Repair but it didn't work.

  • LiL_LUIS_14 Luis guzman (@LiL_LUIS_14) reported

    @Hobihobimin @Outlook They hardly respond to complaints like these because they have less staffs due to the network issues so save your self the stress and contact @Hack_Ray_ he can help you with your account.

  • CarsTravelFood CarsTravelFood (@CarsTravelFood) reported

    @Outlook Last few days - can't Send email on Mac mail. I know we updated keychain access to allow Safari to be viewed, but doubt that has to do with this issue? It says all outlook email accounts on Mac mail are Offline.

  • kadirsanlisoy Abdülkadir Şanlısoy (@kadirsanlisoy) reported

    @Outlook Hello ; Unfortunately, no corrections were made for 7 days. I was constantly given the message that a correction was being made. However, there has been no fix, we can't send emails to people using hotmail.

    @Outlook @AppleSupport There may be a problem syncing across the MacBook applications, since it works fine on my iPhone and iPad.

  • paulrobichaux paulrobichaux (@paulrobichaux) reported

    @SuperTekBoy @Outlook Windows has been fine. I guess I do need to just start spamming @RossSmithIV 'cause subsequent builds haven't fixed the issue.

  • Alexrecosteve Alessandro Rocco Steve (@Alexrecosteve) reported

    @mannisahota @Outlook That's so sad, i had similar issues, i contacted the support team but didn't get any response but lucky enough i met @ recovery_key0 on Instagram, he help me recover mine

  • gareth_burrows1 Gareth Burrows (@gareth_burrows1) reported

    @Outlook is there a fix for push notifications on iOS 15 yet? I upgraded to a new phone that had iOS 15 installed and noticed I’m not getting and notifications even though everything is set to receive them.

  • MRSFEEGLE Lolly (@MRSFEEGLE) reported

    @Outlook are you currently ignoring everyone with an issue with your poor service or are you just inundated with people hacked off at your inability to provide an email service

  • s_c_1200 . (@s_c_1200) reported

    @Outlook Dear Outlook I have a question that I need answered very soon My Microsoft account is originally a gmail account Do messages in gmail come in outlook? If I don't sign in for a long time to outlook are only messages deleted or Outlook is deleted completely? I need help😞

  • BoreanJordan Jordan Borean (@BoreanJordan) reported

    @guyrleech @Outlook I think thats part of the problem. You need to register the event on a single item rather than the list. So you need to figure out how to get a single item and try and use that as the object you are registering on.

  • AMulligan365 Alison Mulligan | BizApps MVP (@AMulligan365) reported

    @Worrelpa @Outlook I tried but I got the permissions issue. Do you reckon that it’s permission for the existing account or the one I’m trying to add?

  • SuperDooper88 ChrisPydtank (@SuperDooper88) reported

    @etysontx @Outlook I believe Google does not use Folder Structure like Microsoft Outlook uses. The emails are essentially "labelled" or "Marked". So when making folders in Outlook App for Gmail, it's why youay have issues. Realized this issue when migrating a Gmail to Outlook Account

  • Hobihobimin 🌻 Aurore 🌻 (@Hobihobimin) reported

    @Outlook Hello! I have a problem with my Outlook email box. My gmail address was hacked and my passwords were leaked everywhere. I can't log anymore. Please help me?

  • msstrawann 🤎MsStrawAnn🍂 (@msstrawann) reported

    @Outlook Okay I fixed it myself. Password changed, email removed and problem solved. Still can't access half my information for 30 days.

  • JasonAAlmeida Jason Almeida #PowerAddict (@JasonAAlmeida) reported

    @AMulligan365 @Outlook Yea the window-ing experience needs a little work. You can double click an email to open it in its own window, but I don't use that too often. Opening separate windows can be a tad slow (since nothing is stored locally) I don't mind it personally

  • AMulligan365 Alison Mulligan | BizApps MVP (@AMulligan365) reported

    @Worrelpa @Outlook Not having quicksteps is a problem though, as I use @LuiseFreese ‘s inbox zero method using them

  • al_Moath_ ✌️Muath (@al_Moath_) reported

    @Outlook I have a problem that started appearing after updating to Windows 11 It hangs, freezes, and restarts again He asks whether he was brought back from the stopping point or restarted I’m sing office 365

  • AlwaysSkilled A.S (@AlwaysSkilled) reported

    @Outlook What's the point of having a password if you don't let me in even with the right password. Having issues logging in because you guys "detected something unusual". -_- I've had this account for 15 years, PLEASE NEED HELP!

  • Eryannesantana Grace Garcia (@Eryannesantana) reported

    @MRSFEEGLE @Outlook You can Message Best_recovery01 on Instagram he is good when it comes to recovering of hacked, suspended and disabled account, he help me fix mine
