Outlook Connector reports "connecting" but does not connect
The only way I finally got things to work was to uninstall Outlook Connector
and then set up Outlook without the connector. Now everything works fine. Go figure... "James Gu" wrote: The real weird thing is, I tried to reinstall Windows, and it works straight after. then 2 reboot later (ie this morning) it just collapsed. So I cant say its a hotfix or a software conflict atm, but i doubt its either. |

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en Date Published: 7/23/2008 I would say you need to update the connector - I did - it all works - AND the calendar connects - I have a free level hotmail account.... matt |

Outlook Connector reports "connecting" but does not connect
Glad to know it's not just me. I've spent the past two days trying to get
Outlook Connector working again. I did hear back from MSN who told me to reinstall Connector and to delete and re-establish my email. Neither worked, nor did establishing a new "profile". Would love to hear if anyone figures out how to fix the problem. "Greg" wrote: Two days ago, outlook connector worked fine for the past 6 months with my *.msn.com email (i.e. hotmail / windows live). Yesterday, it stopped working (i.e. would not download nor upload any new emails) Deleted account, reloaded outlook connector (v4) to no avail. Turned off Firewall, still no connect. Status shows: Mail Storage: 500MB of 5 GB Email: Connecting Calendar: Connecting Contact: Connecting Detailed Status reports shows: Outlook Connector Version 12.0.4518.1068 Account: Signed in successfully at 7/23/2008 11:03:49 AM Mail: Calendar: Contacts: Any ideas? |

Outlook Connector reports "connecting" but does not connect
Well, Bryan:
At least you're "privileged" enough to talk to MSFT. With like 10 people all having the same problem obviously it's a problem that MSFT has to solve. Re-install is not working, so can you PLEASE keep talking to MSFT and pressure them to find a solution. The user community is pretty frustrated, esp. since most of use can't reach a live person at MSft to work through it. THANKS, Julie "Bryan Drost" wrote: I too am experiencing the same problem...I have been on the phone with Microsoft all day as well as e-mailed several people and have not found a resolution! Hopefully we'll get their soon! Anyone have any ideas? |

Outlook Connector reports "connecting" but does not connect
I am having the same trouble and I think it all stems from the automatic
downlaods from Microsoft done on 7/22/08. I tried Matthew's fix but it did not work for me!! -- Julia "Julie" wrote: YES. You're my hero. thank you.

Matt,
Thanks for digging for the solution. It works for me. Next I need to create a script to copy from the ost file to a private pst file for backup purposes. |
