I am a complete dumbass when it comes to computer matters. Just tried to log in to my Hotmail account and got the same message/page twice. Anyone else having problems with Hotmail? I tried to get a screen grab of the message but as I said me and pc's dont get on, so had to post a link instead.

Thanks in advance.

Matt

BBC were reporting issues with Hotmail yesterday due to ongoing migration to outlook. I'd do a google for 'hotmail problems' - the most recent issues will be first on list and may indicate if resolved

Thanks project.
So does that mean keep trying until I get the Hotmail page or click on the link I posted and all will be ok?

Hotmail went[url= http://techcrunch.com/2013/03/13/the-great-hotmail-outlook-outage-of-2013-continues-as-downtime-passes-12-hour/ ]down for about 14 hours yesterday[/url] for a lot of people, including mine. Mine's back up now, but I'd imagine many are still affected.

That particular link is showing a certificate error. The site is valid though.

Are you using a bookmark or typing 'www.hotmail.com' into the address bar? If the former, don't do that.

Clear your internet cache / try a different browser?

Working fine for me, FWIW.

Cougar that worked thanks. I was using a bookmark. The only problem is I hate it! I really dont like the new look. How do I get the old one back? Why do they always have to change and update things! God I am beginning to sound like my parents now! I guess I am just and analogue bloke in a digital world.
