    Windows Trying to Sign In Using Outdated Login ID


    When I created my Microsoft account, I used an e-mail address that is now defunct. Shortly before the address was shut down, I switched the account to a new e-mail address. At the time, there were no issues with this.


    But just a few weeks ago, things changed. Now whenever a Windows application needs to verify my log-in information for instance, the Windows Store, or my Outlook e-mail account, I get a pop-up panel asking me to sign into my Microsoft account using the original e-mail address as my log-in ID. It never works. And there doesn't appear to be a way to change the log-in ID that is being asked for. I've checked my Windows account settings, and confirmed that the correct e-mail address is listed there. I've double-checked the settings of my Microsoft account online, and confirmed that the original e-mail address doesn't appear to be listed anywhere in my account information. I've also changed my password online just to confirm that I was using the right one when trying to sign in. I've checked my mail settings. But I can't seem to figure out where my system is getting the old log-in e-mail address from.


    Any ideas?

    :)

    Subsystem ID mismatch

    Run atiwinflash from the DOS prompt in Windows. Follow the steps listed in the HD6950 mod article for DOS flashing.

    Can't choose Youtube ID login

    Hi!

    On my Nokia Lumia with Windows Phone 7.8 I'm having problems with choosing a different ID when I login. I'd rather use my second one, but I cannot because the list is not scrollable. Is this a problem with youtube mobile site, or my old version of Windows
    Phone?

    Here is a screenshot, you can see the first ID and its cut off radio button suggesting I should be able to scroll a list there:
