How to sync people with windows live mail
Windows Live Mail is a discontinued email client, and Microsoft has stopped supporting it. However, I can provide you with some general steps on how to sync people with Windows Live Mail, although it may not work as intended since the service is no longer available.
Syncing contacts with Windows Live Mail:
- Make sure you have a Windows Live account: If you don't have a Windows Live account, create one by signing up on the Microsoft website.
- Enable contact syncing: Go to the Windows Live website, sign in to your account, and click on the "Contacts" tab. Enable contact syncing by clicking on the "Sync" button.
- Configure Windows Live Mail: Open Windows Live Mail, go to the "Tools" menu, and select "Accounts". Click on the "Windows Live" account, and then click on the "Properties" button.
- Sync contacts: In the "Windows Live" account properties window, click on the "Sync" tab. Select the "Contacts" option and choose the frequency of syncing (e.g., every 15 minutes).
- Wait for syncing to complete: Windows Live Mail will start syncing your contacts with your Windows Live account. This may take some time, depending on the number of contacts you have.
Tips and limitations:
- Windows Live Mail only syncs contacts with your Windows Live account, not with other email accounts or services.
- If you have a large number of contacts, syncing may take a long time or may not complete successfully.
- Windows Live Mail may not sync contacts with other devices or services, such as Outlook.com or other email clients.
- Since Windows Live Mail is no longer supported, you may encounter issues or errors while syncing contacts.
Alternative solutions:
- If you're looking for a more reliable and feature-rich contact syncing solution, consider using Outlook.com or another email client that supports contact syncing.
- If you're using a Windows 10 device, you can use the built-in People app to manage your contacts and sync them with your Microsoft account.
