My hotmail account has been changed for some reason to Outlook.
I;m having trouble logging in. It looks as if its working, but its just taking ages and ages to come up, anyone any ideas.
make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.

    We have also had problems logging onto our Hotmail over the last few days. Sometimes get a blank screen and sometimes blue text but unable to access msg's

    ts really annoying, I get all the text down the left hand side with the exception of the amounts of messages, circle keeps going round and round, so its working, it eventually came up okay after about 10 minutes.
    I dont understand why it was changed from Hotmail to Outlook.

    I don't like this Outlook - it's going to take some getting used to.

    Messages are showing in my draft folder and my sent folder so I don't know if they have been sent, and if I forward a message the original changes in my inbox to show my name as sender, and my message above the original in the reading panel.

    So confused. Think it's time for a change.

    I have had the outlook theme for a few months now. I personally really like it, yesterday morning seemed to be going a bit weird. Must have been a glitch. They seem to be trying to compete with Gmail, keeping emails as conversations.
