I am NOT using any kind of dwnloaded app... just using my regular older version std Chrome app browser on my Samsung phone, connect into Hotmail- do the Hotmail usual signin lil box...
First - Ive got 3 hotmail mail acct/addresses (A,B,C) For like year, always all 3 comeup w/ simple old view/ui user interface.
(works good let u flip from Mobile to PC site at bottom screen, yu know prob)
Yday acct C only comes up with diff view (sucks worser) for clue maybe, at bottR says connected to microsoft exchange" I hate this...don't want it...
The other accts A ,B both tho are ok.
Is it maybe bc I used a libray real pc (I think) last week logged in read my C acct hotmail ?
-Pls pls what can I do to reset get this C hotmail acct to work/look like "old way" like used to like A and B. Do I need goto "old" libray pc with "older" sw/Outlook browser login from there reset my hotmail acct from there???
Thx lotsss
 
Well guess it's not...but thought maybe other android phoneusers run into it... seems like hotmail detects from what device your logging in from to read em. And getting this only from my mobil phone... Is there a good hotmail forum you might know?
Thx
 
Just so we're talking apples to apples so to speak, you are opening the hotmail mobile site using Chrome on your phone? I just did and it looks like this ...

I don't see any options to change the look of it. Even the full PC site is pretty limited in terms of configuration options.
 
Yes you've got it exactly!!... I'm doing just what u said... This screen u posted (thanks) is what I want... Weird is... I get this "old" view like I said onlyfor hotmail accts A,B but now not C anymore. I wish I could reset somehow my C acct. Maybe helpful...on C acct says at bottomR "connected to microsoft exchange" I dont want this.
I wish I could post pic like u did..but too tough for me to do.
Want just simplylike your posted pic for all A,B,C accts like I always had.
I think I confused hotmail by logging into acct C from a library real pc . Wish I could fix this.
 
I'm sure it's that the "C" account is logged in as an exchange account, but I can't see where that would have happened. A screenshot would help. What kind of device are you using? Screenshots should be pretty easy.
 
How can I get C acct outof stupid exchange acct? Maybe happened at library pc using IE browser or newer vers of windows/outlook sw or sthing?? Im on std samsung exhibit android 4.1.2 phone.
 
I think a screenshot on that phone is power + home. I really thing that is a Microsoft question ... both as to how to remove it and why it got connected in the first place.
