| | Entire contact list appears offline after changing Live email addr As the subject states, I changed my Live email address (from one non-hotmail account to another) and completed the verification. However, now my contact list appears offline, and I cannot receive emails! Actually, ONE of my contacts is appearing online, which makes this even more confusing. It's been 2 days, and no amount of searching is coming up with a solution (although plenty of other people are having the exact same problem, so far a solution has not been found). Help please! |

| | Re: Entire contact list appears offline after changing Live email I tried switching back, and the contact list is still there. However, when I tried switching to the new email again, it's still an empty list!

| | Re: Entire contact list appears offline after changing Live email Hi, It generally will take up to two days for it to transfer actually. It's not an instant process I'm afraid. -- Jonathan Kay Microsoft MVP - Windows Live Messenger MSN Messenger/Windows Messenger MessengerGeek Blog: http://www.messengergeek.com Messenger Resources: http://messenger.jonathankay.com (c) 2008 Jonathan Kay - If redistributing, you must include this signature or citation -- "lowlight" <lowlight@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:4C6147EA-ACA6-422A-A92F-2DFFD7E955D7@xxxxxx Quote: > I tried switching back, and the contact list is still there.
