Hotmail and Outlook down, or login problems

Alert: Problems Reported

The transition from Hotmail to Outlook hasn’t been without problems, in fact there’s been a few outages with users reporting Hotmail or Outlook has gone down throughout this year at different times. In most circumstances this will just be old issues not lasting very long, although some issues will be prolonged with Outlook login problems being the most highlighted.

If you made the move from Hotmail to Outlook, then you might not be happy since the automatic switch and not having the ability to switch back to Hotmail again. In fact, we have seen a few people complain and think the service hasn’t improved since the changes to their inbox.

    “When I get billing statements from various creditors I get a message that says “Something went wrong”. There is a refresh button, but it just keeps crashing. Any other type of e-mail works fine and doesn’t crash.

    I am able to login with hotmail. The page loads, left menu and ads of course. The box the emails listed is blank with an icon saying LOADING….. I have cleared cahce and switched to NO PROXY with no luck. I have rebooted also. I checked my friends hotmail on the same computer and it works fully. I checked my hotmail on another computer and it works there. It is unique to this system but can’t find the trouble…..any thoughts out there??? I have not made any hardware or software changes to this system. The problem started about 48 hours ago. Thanks

    I can’t login to Hotmail, it says someone else might be using my account and when they ask for the mobile number I registered it on in order for them to send a code, the code isn’t sent. So I tried the alternate method and it says it will take 24 hours to resolve the issue… the problem is I need o access my email to access documents that I have stored on it … anybody else having an issue with Hotmail, the damn bot on their support system is not helpful either

  • Xenia Elizabeth Zilli

    as of yesterday i have only ‘NEW’ and ‘MARK AS READ’ headings in my Outlook Mail. i see emails but can’t click on any. they won’t open. can’t open folders either.
    an update: i am not receiving emails whatsoever. what is going on ?

  • Drew

    My account still logs in automatically, but since yesterday the message window has been displaying the message “Your message can’t be displayed right now. Please check your internet connection or try again later”. There is no problem with my internet connection.
    Ironically, to post this message here, I needed to sign up to Disqus and verify the email that was sent to my hotmail account. At least it is still working on my phone. The only thing I can think to do is to send important emails to my gmail account to view them.
    I have always had this email address as my primary address, but over the last 3 or 4 years hotmail has been causing me problems with emails that never arrive to my account – not even to the junk folder. Sometimes these are very important emails, and worth considering a move to another email provider, and dropping Hotmail altogether.

    has anyone heard of a fix – I have been going ‘crazy’ with having to open new accounts, verifying new account with a current account which it won’t accept password. I know I am forgetful with p/w – this is ridiculous! please tell me how to get around all this ”craziness’ – other than open yahoo or gmail accounts. Unfortunately my ‘life’ is in outlook emails 🙁

    Hotmail/Outlook is like everything Microsoft does. One foul up after another. Two different computers, two different email accounts CANNOT log in. Microsoft can’t even make a competent operating system without bugs and backdoors. Now THIS TOO? Screw you Microsoft! Windows 10 SUCKS! So does Hotmail/Outlook. Guess I will migrate to google fully IF I ever get my damn email open again! JERKS!

    Hello @@disqus_rYWVn7Se7w live in Ohio in the USA. Ever since Thursday my Outlook email has had a message in Black at the bottom saying that, “Your outlook. com (Outlook) account is disconnected.” this is on my Samsung Galaxy Note 5. My computer is down so I can only access anything on my phone and on my tablet. It has an option next to the message saying it’s disconnected saying the word “fix.” I’ve gone through every freaking step multiple times trying to verify my own identity and it will not let me at all. I get to the part where you have to have a code sent to an alternate email or through text or phone call. It has my number ending in 43 when it ends in 09. I don’t understand that at all. I have not changed my phone number. I need to be able to use my Outlook and Microsoft account because I use it for my DirecTV now streaming service and need it to be able to log in if it’s ever accidentally logs out. I’m not paying $35 a month for something I can’t access, the directvnow. And I can’t just create a new email address because I have my more important emails sent to my Outlook email instead of my Gmail email. What is going on? It was already giving me trouble on Wednesday and forced me to have to reset my password which has always been the same for my computer and email for years and I know it is the right one. I made it so I can’t forget it. So I had to go to the irritating process of resetting my password and I reset it to the one that it already was. I had to try it over and over and over again just to get the new password to work and let me in. And then I find out on Friday when I try to look at my emails that my last email was Wednesday when I changed my password and I got that black message at the bottom of the screen saying it’s disconnected. I really rather talk to a person if possible. I’m starting to get angry because all the troubleshooting I’ve tried needs me to log into Microsoft Outlook to be able to troubleshoot which I can’t do. I can’t log into it at all in the first place which is the problem. Getting very angry.

  • NgTurbo

    Hi everyone, please do not call any ‘Hotmail Outlook Care +1 855-777″ or similar phone numbers, as these are spam accounts designed to trick you. Any problems with Hotmail, you can try to Tweet official accounts for a response or just hold on tight until an outage is resolved.

    • Laurel Zyvoloski

      Looks like a new outage or they have been hacked. Been trying for almost 4 hours to log on and the screen pops up that ”it looks like someone is using my account” or something like that. I’ve tried every solution they offer and not one of them works. Any updates on this???
