  1. Trying to log in to my new MS account and getting message that won't let me


    I'm trying to log in to a new MS account I created today. When I go to my accounts page it shows my Local account and when I try to log in to my MS account, a window opens and it tells me "Another user on this device uses this Microsoft account, so you can't add it here." I AM the user! But I can't access my account on my computer. This is so frustrating and it makes me hate Microsoft. HELP!

    :)

  2. Trying to switch to Microsoft account from local, unable to...

    I tried that, more than once. I go thru the complete procedure of getting a new Microsoft account password, then when I reach the final step to key in the Windows password, I try my NEW Microsoft account password, and I get the same message-invalid password. No luck.

    Any other suggestions.

  3. email account hacked. please help

    Also may I suggest you change email accounts to one of the following.....

    Gmail
    Outlook

    The reason is they both use "Step two verification". This style of verification means even if a hacker gets your password they cannot log in to your account. You see every time someone try's to log in that hasn't been verified you will get a text or a phone call giving you a final code to log in. Its very easy and simple to setup also. The great thing is once you setup your Email application with a specific "application password" from that account you never have to log in again AND your account is protected from being logged in from foreign entities.

    I like the new outlook personally however Gmail is also damn good. Gmail also has an IP tracker that allows you to see WHERE the account has been logged in from. Anyway let us know if you wanna change over and have any questions. We will be happy to help and welcome to TPU!

    Trying to log in to my new MS account and getting message that won't let me

    Can´t log in to Google account

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply.

    However, the site you linked to does not help me any further. I need to be able to contact a real person. Those help articles listed there won´t do it for me.

    Thanks.
