Hello there, I couldn't login to my email on the Outlook website or on my smartphone. I never log out of my email on my smartphone and computer, but it's logged out. When I tried to login, I got the message "Too Many Requests" on my smartphone and computer. May you help me so I can login to my email account? I've changed my password, but still couldn't login.

    Good plan!

    I have no idea what is wrong with MS, but evidently they have more pressing things to do, like fire middle managers and increase the span of control for managers who could not possibly keep up with their people and their work.

    Well, in corporate life, I have found that the pendulum swings one way then the other and then back again, much to the detriment of people who are actually trying to do the work they were assigned.

    As for this hot mess, it started again lately for me.

    What I do?

    I hit the refresh circle arrow several times until I get to my mail after logging in. I have also found that entering my username and waiting a minute and then my password and waiting a minute before logging in helps SOMETIMES.

    Obviously, not sure this will work for anyone else, but it is easy to try. FYI, I am using Windows 7 Pro and refuse to update to anything else. All I do is email--I am retired--and have no interest in paying them any money for anything.

    Cheers!

    Microsoft, shame on you! I tried all the suggestions listed here and the only one that worked was hinted at in an earlier reply: try logging in using the Edge browser. That's right, no other browser would let me log in, only Edge. Nothing else about my account or system changed in the meantime, and no time had passed since my other attempts. If MS is going to force us to use their browser to log in, the least they could do is give us a meaningful error message that tells us so.

    Is the reason that I’m getting this message because somebody else is trying to hack into my account. I have several Microsoft accounts and I have this problem with all of them and I just can’t get in. Surely you can recognise that I’m trying to get in from my phone and not another Device.
