    Outlook 365 taking too long to synchronize each time email is being checked

    Every 5 minutes, Outlook is set to check my mail. I have 11 different email address, which are outlook.com / hotmail.ca / gmail.com. It seems each time, it's taking between 10 and 12 minutes to synchronizing to finish. I also have many subfolders, but it seems this problem only began about a...

    Cannot reestablish gmail (email address) account in Outlook 365

    I've had an email address ending in gmail.com on one of my computers since the Mayflower came across. Attempting to create that same email address on this computer isn't flying too well.

    Contact list didn't download

    I've downloaded Microsoft 365 to my wife's secondary laptop, and all went well till I opened the contacts. To my great dismay, there was none.

    How do I remove an email ending with @gmail.com

    I know how to remove an email account from Outlook 365, but it seems it must be completely removed from my Google Account to get rid of it totally.

    Background colors not saving in Outlook 365

    Has anyone else noticed background colors are not saving in Outlook 365? If the color is changed, it immediately flips back to the color set before this problem began. Is this a bug or is it something that is a telltale sign to uninstall Outlook and use Eudora?

    How to get Outlook 365 to open from websites

    There are sites that have their email address posted, so clicking on them opens up Windows Mail instead of Outlook 365. My question is, how does one get Outlook 365 to open automatically instead of Windows Mail from either of those different sites.

    Scrolling through Directories hesitates

    I've had this problem before but cannot remember how to fix it. On the left where my email addresses are and Directories, when I scroll up or down in there, it takes three or four clicks on the mouse wheel to get them to move. When they begin to move, they're ok but it's getting them to move...

    Email flag does not show up in Outlook2013

    Not sure how to post that question but maybe this will help. Let me re-write this. It's actually the AOL account that does not show an envelop. I realize there's a simple explanation for this but I must be sub-simple to understand it. Please advise.
