Outlook.com "Sync Email" settings - "Unable to load these settings. Please try again later."

Hello Mihály Barosi!

Welcome to the Microsoft Office Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

I totally understand that you have concern about your Outlook.com wherein the sync email option is blank. Let's us check on this together and sort this out. Rest assured, I will do anything that I can to assist you with your concern.

Based on your description, the reason why your sync email option is blank might be because there's a problem on the server. You may observe the behavior by trying again after 24 hours or by using other network for the internet.

Now here's my to answer your questions;

With synchronizing your Gmail to Outlook.com, this is the same with connected accounts on Outlook.com, this option is no longer available on Outlook.com. Microsoft has removed this option since May 10, 2021. In order for you to sync your Gmail account to Outlook is you will need to use the Outlook mail application to access you emails from Gmail. Please refer to this article here for more information. Add your other email accounts to Outlook.com (microsoft.com)

Hope it helps. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

ReynaldoB

I am having difficulty with adding my Hotmail account and my school outlook account to my phone. I have submitted several requests for assistance and have not received a reply or a phone call. I keep getting a message saying a security code was sent to the alternate email. However, I haven't received the security code. What is going on? This is very frustrating.

ReynaldoB,

Is not longer available also to check POP3 mails?

I have a pop3-smtp account (not a Gmail) that I would like to check from Outlook.com. Is this feature still available?

Why I am also having the same error?

Thank you!

Same problem here,

I never synced with Gmail or had any POP3 accounts configured.

When I click Sync email from within Outlook I get Unable to load these settings. Please try again later

I cannot even close the page when I am in this tab.

I am not a 100% sure but I think this issue cropped up after I switched from an @outlook.com address to another primary alias (non @outlook.com) address.
