  • If you can't set your phone up to live.com it maybe because you have a 2 step verification on your email settings. What you need to do is turn this OFF via your Desktop/Laptop then go back to your phone and setup your email in your settings as per normal, once this is activated you then need to go back to your computer and reacivate your 2 step verification this will ask you if you to register your phone and will give you a new password pacific to phone only (MAKE SURE YOU WRITE THIS PASSWORD DOWN FOR FUTURE REFERENCES)....
