Ok, I have posted my account address in private reply.

ad #2: Do you format your PC every time Outlook gets corrupted? Pls, don't advise such thing. Resetting my phone would have to be really only the last possible resort.

I've done clearing cache and removing my account from phone several times, but it just stops syncing at one point. And I normally do not notice it soon enough, so I already made some changes to contacts, which are not sync then and after removing account I lose all those changes. I really hate this.

Thank you for your help.

Hello Packov,

We appreciate your time for posting back. I'm sorry to know that your contacts are not synching at the moment. Just to set your proper expectation, one possible reason why you're experiencing this issue is because there's a bad cache on your mobile device.

The best way to remedy this issue is to perform the steps below.

1. Clear your mobile cache.
2. Reset your phone to factory settings.

You might need to keep in touch with the support manufacturer of your mobile device on how to do this.

3. Remove and reconfigure your account on your device. For more for information, take time to read this Microsoft article: **Get info on setting up Outlook.com on your Windows Phone, iPhone, or Android phone**.

If in case the issue still persist, we need you to provide the affected account in question so we can investigate deeper on your issue.

Hello, Julius,

Yes, my contacts aren’t syncing at the moment, since I am still waiting for a more long-lasting fix than just removing and reading the account, which works just for a few days.

I normally add it through settings / add EAS account and the only special setting is to use server: dub-m.hotmail.com (this address was supposed to work as best solution). Afterwards I notice, this server is automatically changed to: dub407-m.hotmail.com (which is my current setting). Of course there is SSL (443) enabled. E-mail and calendar sync is working perfectly. One more thing, my e-mail is from the days of “custom domains live mail” system.

And it doesn’t matter whether I use my phone’s contact linking with Skype, Facebook (Xperia with FB services) or not.

Thank you for your help!
