Organizing and accessing contact information in Outlook.com
Ok, I believe I'm having the same problem. Here's what is going on:
- My Hotmail used to be connected to my facebook
- I removed the facebook connection, however the contacts were not removed from the PEOPLE hub of WINDOWS LIVE HOTMAIL. Nothing to do with Microsoft Office Outlook.
- When I go to the PEOPLE HUB of WINDOWS LIVE HOTMAIL and click the little gear, there's an option to filter my contacts. I have Outlook, Skype, and Messenger.
- Regardless of what I select, my facebook contacts are STILL there, even though the account is NOT connected.
- There is NO OPTION to delete them. and NO CONENCTION
- I want them gone.
For what it's worth, the account is currently synced with a Windows 8 Desktop, a Windows 7 Laptop, a Lumia 920, and a Surface RT.
I'm not sure if you've tried this already. You sound a little more computer savvy than I am. This is a quote I received and it worked for what I needed. You may have already tried this, but here is how they told me to do it:
To remove connection with facebook :
- Go to People window > top right, click your name > click Edit Profile
- Below your picture, click Manage
- If you see your Facebook connected, click on Edit
- Click the link Remove this connection completely
