    I am having issues having the desktop app for Mac OS 11.1 @Outlook - it's not synching - online it works, but the only way to resolve is to shut down computer and restart. However, it's only updating what's in the inbox not constantly refreshing and pulling in mail. Please help!

    @crod @Outlook I turn it off on every PC I touch. Microsoft's efforts in this area are terrible please stop "trying" to help

  • luvselefantes Pachy💜🐘🦣❄️⛄️ (@luvselefantes) reported

    Ugh @Outlook for years I’ve set up rules for my hotmail inbox to divert emails to folders. Every day they are ignored. I have to reassign daily. I get 200-400 emails a day. This is not working. I want to delete all rules to start over. But I have to delete them one at a time?

  • bethnyland Beth Nyland (@bethnyland) reported

    @BateauDeBanane @Outlook Did you get an answer or a fix? I’m having the same issue on my Mac and iOS devices.

  • BateauDeBanane Madame DeFarge (@BateauDeBanane) reported

    @bethnyland @Outlook No answer or fix (annoyingly), it just started working again yesterday. There are various 'fixes' explained on websites so they be be useful, but the most common one appears to be to wait.....not helpful!

  • KingCalmette Calmette Lahoud (@KingCalmette) reported

    @Outlook Seems to be a problem When I click on a image in email and click on save image as doesn't do it anymore. Anyone else has this problem too. #Email #Hotmail #Outlook

  • ki11deer KillDeer - Official (@ki11deer) reported

    Someone keeps trying to login to my gmail account onto hotmail and I get emails about it every day and the account is locked but I can't login to it because the account is locked. The only way to stop them is to unlock and disable the account. But I can't login. Thanks @Outlook

  • catarinarod2009 🇵🇹CAT ShawnBridgeton🐝@ fan account (@catarinarod2009) reported

    @MattFrampton @Outlook I really hope they can fix it ASAP.

  • ki11deer KillDeer - Official (@ki11deer) reported

    @Outlook None of that helps because when I try to login to the account it's locked and the only option to unlock it is to text a code and it rejects any phone number I put in.

  • nicrich7 Nicole Richards, MPH (@nicrich7) reported

    .@Outlook question: Im employed by 3 different institutions using outlook & having trouble switching between my emails. I don’t want to sync these emails. Is there a way to keep them separate but easier for switching back & forth?

  • DT_Designerly Educaring (@DT_Designerly) reported

    My ‘send later’ feature in @Outlook is not working - I had to get up at 6am to make sure my message pre-set to send this morning had sent #techdilemmas

  • Lascurettes Sounds like Last Regrets (@Lascurettes) reported

    @boctorbill @MicrosoftTeams @Outlook Actually, I have no problem pasting images into chat. I rely on it in fact. Because if you drag a file in, it wants to add it to One Drive. Either select an image file in Finder and copy it then paste it in chat, or use screen grab tools to copy to your clipboard and paste.

  • igt0606 igor augusto (@igt0606) reported
