I’ve been trying to add my Outlook.com to the Mail app for some time now but, when synchronizing, each time I get the error;

Something went wrong
We’re having a problem connecting to eas.outlook.com.
Contact a support person or your service provider.
Error code: 0x86000c09

Is there anything I can reset to make this work again?

How do I sync my contacts and calendar stored in Outlook with my Windows Phone 7 device?

My mobile phone allows me to sync my contacts and calendar with Outlook on my main machine. I'm using a laptop as well and the sync application allows me to sync my contacts and calendar information back to Outlook on my desktop. I'm using POP3 and therefore I cannot sync all my mail folders with the server.

Is there a way I can have this "plug it in and it syncs" functionality with my email as well such as via a USB flash drive?

I’ve been granted access to several large mailboxes and Public Folders which I’ve marked as Favorite. As I’m also regularly off-line, I’ve configured Outlook to also cache this shared content. However, the result is that I now have a really big ost-file.

I was hoping that with the Sync Slider feature in Outlook 2013, I was able to limit how much was being cached and reduce the size of the ost-file. I’ve set the Sync Slider now to 30 days and it seems to work on my own mailbox but it doesn’t have the same effect on my shared mailboxes and Public Folders.

Does the sync slider affect these shared folders at all? If not, what alternatives do I have to reduce the total size of my ost-file?

As a mobile user, I love it that I can also cache other user's shared folders and Public Folder Favorites.

However, some of these users are true packrats and some of these Public Folder Favorites are huge archives. The result is that my ost-file is really large (nearing 20GB) and makes my laptop slow since it doesn't have a high performance SSD drive. I'm also starting to run out of disk space as I only have a 120GB disk in my laptop.

Aside from investing in a fast new disk or telling my colleagues to clean up, what else can I do?

I’ve got plenty of contacts in the People section of Outlook.com but only a few of them actually sync to Outlook.

I’m using an Exchange account and upon opening Outlook it says “Updating this folder”. After a while it changes to “This folder is up to date” and then to “All folders are up to date”.

Sometimes it also indicates which folder it is working on but not always.

Is there any way to find out which folder Outlook is synchronizing right now?

I'm using Office 365 but I seem unable to share and sync my mail, calendar and contact items between multiple computers even though I'm allowed to install it on up to 5 devices.

I was told that Office 365 was "Cloud Based" and I’m signed in with my Microsoft Account to Office, so shouldn't I be able to do this?
