When I attempt to login to Outlook, the following is displayed: 

"Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later."

I have been unable to login for several days now. I have tried to login on many different computers and browsers. Please advise.

    Same problem. No email access at all! When did hotmail decide to change to Outlook? I never agreed to that! Outlook is awful - it's layout is odd and backward. Shouldn't we have been asked? And now email is down...awful service.

    I have the same problem. I can't access my Outlook mail. Not via Browser, or via Outlook and outlook connector.

    Calendar and Skydrive works. E-mail and contacts doesn't.
