I am using the free version of Outlook.com and followed the forums and help how to set up a GMail sync to Outlook.com.

However since two days I got this clicking on the "Sync Email" menu.

Even the X button on the upper right corner does not operates when being in this menu.

I tried this menu in browsers like Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Opera.

All the same results.

Questions:

  1. can I use Gmail sync using free version of Outlook.com?
  2. do you know this

Outlook | Web | Outlook.com | Settings

    Seems like a bunch of us shouting into the wind.

    I've been using Outlook desktop client on my PC for years to send & receive from my Hotmail account. Somehow, my Outlook desktop client has my tasks (575), notes (40), & calendar (events for 365 days/year) tied into my Hotmail account.

    A few days ago my Outlook desktop client stopped fetching Hotmail emails, & my calendar, notes, & tasks weren't being updated on outlook.com from my desktop Outlook PC app (where I use it the most).

    I got a message "unable to connect to server" or something like that.

    Today I deleted my Hotmail account on my desktop Outlook PC client, thinking I could add it back & it would work.

    Disaster! Now my calendar, notes, & tasks are all blank on my desktop Outlook PC client, although they are still visible on outlook.com, last updated a few days ago.

    I tried to add my Hotmail account back to the Outlook desktop PC client but it doesn't work. I thought maybe I had to changed the online settings in outlook.com under sync email, but it only says "Unable to load."

    Now I'm stuck.

    Yes, especially as the solution they give will never work. I changed the passwords on all my accounts so that I could stop email landing in Outlook and migrate my email. That’s been problematic too as Outlook is now duplicating all the migrated folders.
