So, I keep my private hotmail logged in all day long. But whenever I need to go to MSDN to access a file or a license key, I have to sign in with my company mail. And that means that I also get logged out from my hotmail (and vice versa for that matter). WHY the #¤&¤/%/%¤# are those two things connected? Why can't I log in with one Live account in Outlook and another in MSDN at the same time? It's not like it's the same application or anything! OK, not the worlds biggest problem, but irritating all the same! :mad:

Yeah, switching email providers is a PITA. Every couple of months my neighbor calls me for some tech support for the ancient thing she's using -- it originally supported dial-up and still has very limited (something like 1000) inbox emails, you have to use their software to connect to it, and it occasionally messes things up. I keep trying to convince her to switch to something more modern and less limiting, but it's a hard sell. Marc

Just because a thing is new don’t mean that it’s better - Will Rogers, September 4, 1932At least you can say you were using Hotmail before it was cool. That's true of all hotmail users. I've been using for over a decade now with little to no problem.

Just because a thing is new don’t mean that it’s better - Will Rogers, September 4, 1932I tried out Office 365 a bit ago.. To install a sharepoint app I had to log in with a live account. Why the f*** do I need a live account when I'm logged in with a Office365 account?? :doh: (Well, you just need it to get it from the store. afterwards you have to login to Office365 again!)

My BlogUgh. No support for forwarding to a new account or 3rd party pop access? Having those made switching from my legacy accounts to gmail relatively painless; and if Google ever manages to infuriate me enough to leave them hopping to the outlook.com address I squatted on a few days after the service came out will be trivial as well.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

Just start another browser session i.e. fire up a chrome incognito window, that should also work.
