hotmail screws me again

Sign in to disble this ad
i log into hotmail today and i can't compose a message. it keeps defaulting to a different page where i go in circles trying to figure out how to send mail. apparently they want me to upgrade my browser but i was just fine using 10.4.11 and safari.

you see i use ableton live and reason which i don't know if they are compatible with snow leopard these days and im afraid i won't be able to use them if i want to upgrade just to email someone

what should i do?

Abelton is the DJ software correct? My brother uses it on Leopard and it works fine.

I've never ever had any problems with hotmail (honest!) BUT I hate the thing that has just popped up recently where it takes you to a windows live homepage type thing where you have to click AGAIN to take you to your e-mail even though you types in hotmail.com not stupidwindowslive.com

I would hate using gmail, my girlfriend has it and I never liked the look of it.

Try a different browser. I always have 2 or 3 on my computer, since you never know when you'll run across a site with quirky coding.

They're free...I tend to use Firefox, which I think kicks Safari's ass, but Chrome would also be an option, or Opera, or any number of others.

If you're on a Mac, why not use the mail program?

It's what I use to keep all my email centralized.

Hotmail upgraded last week, so your browser probably isn't supported by the new version.

I always despise a new Hotmail layout for about a month after it's initiated, and then I get used to it.

I actually had quite a lot of issues with Gmail, however I havent used it since beta and its probably quite a good email service now. If I were to switch for some reason Gmail would be my first port of call.
