i'm really loving outlook.com - jumped all in and moved everything over from gmail.
do you all have any plans to add some type of sync functionality between outlook.com and the outlook desktop application? i manage my contacts through the outlook desktop application, and it's a bit of a pain to export contacts from outlook desktop application to a .csv, then import into outlook.com. would sure be nice if there was a way to sync content to & from these two relatives, especially contacts & calendars.
thanks

If you are also syncing this account to Outlook 2013 successfully, go review the setting that Outlook 2013 is using...then review the settings on the phone and edit them to use the same server settings.

Let the software find the correct server setting....that's usually how it works.
Hi Julie,
Tw=he software is not finding the server. WHen I do it manually, I still get the error:
"Log onto Exchange ActiveSync mail server (EAS): Could not locate the specified server. User name and/or password are not valid. Please verify the information is correct."
I am not sure what is wrong.
Still perplexed.

So is there anything special that those of us with MS Office 13 desktop have to do? Can you explain the steps necessary to do this? Thank you. J R.
See this article, entitled "Sync Outlook 2013 to a Microsoft Account,"for a full explanation of how to set up Outlook 2013.
The article is helpful. However, when I put in bay-m.hotmail as the server I get an error: Log onto Exchange ActiveSync mail server (EAS): Could not locate the specified server. User name and/or password are not valid. Please verify the information is correct. Help... Thank you.
