   I'm running the Outlook Connector v12.0.4518.1058, with Outlook 2007 on Vista.  The problem is, it doesn't sync email older than around 120 days+

   On my WinXP, O2K3 with Connector v1.8.3501.0.  All is working, and confirmed by checking the folders on mail.live.com.

   Any idea's?

   I have the version 12.0.4518.1058 of outlook connector installed in my Vista Machine. However, I can't get it to work. The sign in always fails. It suggests to restart outlook or try to repair outlook connector, but neither worked.

   Has anyone had this problem before?

   Thanks,

   Sam

   smoreira, I have not seen this problem. You might want to head on over to the Outlook blog and let them know of your problem:

   Brandon,

   Thanks for your reply. Just as a feedback for anyone having the same problem, the solution was basically giving permission to Outlook to access the Internet via the firewall.

   Even though I installed the Outlook Connector using the admin user, I was trying to connect to my hotmail for the first time under my daily account, which is basically a standard account. Under the standard account, I was receiving the login failure error from the connector. However, as soon as I connected to my hotmail account logged in as the admin user, I received the firewall message inquiring about giving permission to Outlook to access the Internet. And, after giving permission to Outlook, the outlook connector began working on all my standard accounts without the need to do anything else.

   Hope this helps,

   Thanks again,

   Sam Moreira

   I'm now using Outlook Connector version 12.0.4518.1063 that was released today (09/11/2007) along with Outlook 2007. I was having trouble today getting the sync to complete, so I upgraded to the new version.

   I have a Hotmail Plus account and I noticed that as of today I now have 10 GB of space available. But in the Outlook Connector it reports that I have 5GB of space.  Could it be that the descripency has something to do with the problem?

   My wife has a free hotmail account that only has 5 GB of space and her sync is working just fine.

   Outlook Connector it´s absolutely useless.

   May be it works for "toy" occounts. I tried to migrate a MailBox with thousands of mails 8K+, and ot never got synchonized between the web inteface and Outlook. Besides thay, it happens all the time, that some mails can be seen in the web interface, but not in Outlook. Hey there!. People that make this!. Why are you making us loose our time?????.

   Hello.

   I installed the Outlook Connector today (v.12.0.4518.1068) and it doesn't look working. I have outlook 2003 and when I open it and press F9 (for Send/Receice All), looks everything fine without any error (shows Send/Receive Complete in outlook progress). But it doesn't make any sychronize with my hotmail account. Then i am testing sending a mail to this account and it goes to web account and not to outlook. At the server status of the outlook connector, say:

   Mail: Connecting

   Calendar; Connecting

   Contact: Connecting

   What is wrong?

   I got Outlook Connector Version 12.0.4518.1068.

   It reports successful refresh of E-Mail, Calendar and Contacts, but it does not sync my calendar items. Even if I add new appointments, they will not be synced.

   I subscribed to MSN premium just for this - does anyone know how to get it to work?

   Thanks,

   Sam
