Help! Upgraded to Windows10...

eddyandme · ‎09-24-2011

...and, lost my email! message says it's not synced. Can anyone tell me how to sync it? Also, unable to set up favorites - the star (add to favorites), but then cannot find them! Should have stayed with 8, but was hoping 10 would be better -- wrong

I just recently upgraded and it's a pain in the b###! Your favorites are at the right side on your browser bar line. it's the icon with three lines=, I know it makes no sense to me either. Good luck!

I hate Cortana. Other than that, it's ok.

@eddyandme. Maybe if you log off and log back on, your emails will appesr.

I upgraded and had no problems, actually am so used to it I can't remember what the other was like. I had 8.1. The only issue is some sites won't allow emoticons unless I use IE instead of the Edge. I just have both in my bar. As said, the three little lines up in the right corner will allow you to use your Favorites - there is a way to click and import them all. Or, they will still be in your old browser, IE in my case.

I had no problems with e-mail. Maybe yours will just take a time to synch and move over.

Good luck, I was pretty scared but my son and my bosses told me to go for it. And I did. Actually love it.

The setting(s)did not install properly when you upgraded to Window 10. http://www.groovypost.com/howto/add-gmail-email-windows-10-mail-app/

If you need more help, go to your email provider and check the setting.

Does anyone know if the issue with iTunes not working with Windows 10 has been fixed? I've downloaded it but not installed it yet since I heard about the iTune issues. TIA

I refuse to upgrade! Heard too many stories like these about the problems. If your browser works fine as is, let it be. I'm still on Windows 7 and love it.

I've had no problems with iTunes. I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10; my computer was a year old Dell; I've been using Windows 10 for 2 months now and liking it.

You can turn Cortana off. Just type "Cortana" in your task search bar and it'll give you Cortana settings and from there you have the option to turn it off (thus protecting some of your privacy).

I actually like Cortana.

I upgraded and then had to revert to Windows 8.1. I got stuck in airplane mode. No Internet connection. Cannot explain that one. I am not going to try again believe me.
