Hotmail is no longer pushing emails to my phone...

I am having the same problem. I wonder if this has anything to do with it...

You never know. It could be very possible. I don't understand why it hasn't been resolved yet. It has been all over the internet for almost a week now.

I am having the same exact problem. I also read the article about the new outlook.com and it sayd it supposed to actually work better on smartphones and tablets. This is really starting to driver me crazy and they are doing nothing to resolve this. So far today not 1 email pushed through I had to maually get it.Microsoft or Apple needs to do something. So many people are having this problem.

Yeah, I tried that. It appears to set it up the same, but just with a different icon. All the settings look the same. It remains to be seen how push will work with it.

I hadn't heard about the rollout of outlook.com. It makes sense now why problems would arise out of the blue. Microsoft is no doubt making changes on the server end because of this rollout.

I went ahead and signed in at outlook.com so that my account is switched to the new web interface. I'll see if that helps anything. Afterwards, I went ahead and deleted the Hotmail account on my iPhone which I had configured earlier today to use Exchange. Then, I set it up again using the default Hotmail choice in iOS 5.

I did all of that to. Some days I get push and some days I have to keep checking my mail folder. I have been getting my important mail late because of this. Has to be related to the new web format and server changes. What gets me is with all these posts nothing has been done yet!

Until it all gets resolved, I'd totally keep checking my email "manually" so you don't keep getting important mail late.... I mean... Just a thought. But if you know it's going on and you don't wanna miss any emails... check it.

Basically that is what I am doing. It's just not supposed to be that way. Hopefully it will be resolved soon.

Push has been working for me ever since taking these steps:

1. Sign in at Outlook.com. (This upgrades your account to the new system.)

2. Delete account configuration in iOS.

3. Set up account in iOS using Hotmail option.

I already signed in at outlook.com and deleted and re-entered my account on iPhone

I updated my web version of hotmail to outlook.com, deleted hotmail account from iphone, rebooted iphone, and then added hotmail account back to iphone. It now works like a charm.

I will give that another shot!

I came to this forum searching for a solution to this same issue... my Hotmail stopped pushing all of a sudden. On another forum someone suggested turning off my iPhone, turning it back on and then closing the mail application. For some reason, that worked and mail started pushing again. (Not sure if order makes a difference - close application and turn off or turn off and close application) Certainly an easy fix if it was not just a coincidence that it started working again.

I have tried everything and nothing had worked! But for the past day and a half push notification seems to be working perfect. Must of been something on the servers.
