Diane and Eagle117
I looked at upgrading to a "premium" account but as I read I only found that
it includes other services (see below) but does not include a true sync
between outlook and hotmail (contacts, calendar) and in fact it should also
be linked to messenger. I'm surprised that Microsoft does not offer this
since it would allow information to be centralized in Outlook as a database
with Hotmail and Messenger to be alternative delivery options. Thank you for
your help.

As of right now, Microsoft doesn't consider Hotmail Plus a "premium" account
and therefore does not allow you to sync your calendar and contacts
automatically. You have to go to a higher plan which starts at $5/month I
believe instead of the $20/year Hotmail Plus. I've been suggesting that
Hotmail Plus should be included in this but nobody seems to listen so far.

I clicked on the send receive button but and it syncs ultra fast. Under the
task tab in the progress window, it has green check marks next to MSN -
Sending and MSN: Folder: Inbox Synchronizing headers.
Also, I have a live hotmail plus account that I pay.
BTW, Thanks for helping me with this problem.

click the status button on the connector toolbar and see if its connecting
to the contacts. The calendar only connects if you have a paid acct.

Diane,
I do not receive an error message. Both Outlook and Hotmail mail works
perfectly, but in fact neither the contact or the calendar sync. No error
message. No nothing.
hmmmmm

I upgrated to Windows Live Hotmail and I can't make it sync with my
Outlook

I installed the Outlook Connector but it still does not work.
