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

That reminds me, at some point I tried that, too. I killed Mail. But I think I did that after push was working again. I killed the app because my Trash and one other folder was displaying above the Inbox on my iPhone. That didn't fix the folder display problem. My hunch is that Micro$oft fixed something on the server end.

I believe the same. It has been very frustrating but glad push is back.

Oops double post

I followed your instructions and it worked - thanks Justin! 🙂

I did a hard reboot (holding down home and top button until the phone restarts) and it worked for me.

I did update my hotmail to outlook and the push was working fine. I only started noticing this yesterday. So I don't believe it's an updating to outlook.com issue... at least in my case...

Mine had been working for a while ever since updating my account to Outlook.com. However, push stopped working a few days ago for me, as well. I deleted the account from my iPhone and re-added it, plus I updated to iOS 6. It's been working since then. Not sure if it was the iOS 6 update or if it was re-adding the account.

My Hotmail/Outlook.com accounts were working perfectly under iOS 5. Once I upgraded to iOS 6, however, I've noticed a bunch of issues... The biggest issue of course is that push is no longer working. Most Exchange account users are reporting this problem and it's clear that Apple broke something in iOS 6. Related to push not working, I've also noticed Flagged messages on the iPhone are not being updated to match the server. Also messages replied to through the web are not being flagged as replied to on my phone as it did in iOS 5. Also in iOS 5 I was able to reply to a message using an alias address in my Outlook.com account, but in iOS 6 this doesn't work and I can only respond using the primary address.

My hotmail account is not updating either. I do think it is a microsoft issue only because several times I tried to log into my laptop and it is said "outlook is currently experiencing problems, please try again later." It has worked sometimes and then not sometimes. I have other accounts on the phone setup the same way and they are working.... not sure if it has something to do with the address.... the other two are @live addresses. It is driving me crazy... cause it keeps popping back to old emails that I have in my VIP so they keep popping on my screen and I think I have new emails.... Has anyone contacted microsoft about this? I'm going to try there next after I read a few more posts and see if anyone has come up with anything.

Any input appreciated and Thanks 🙂

Microsoft were having issues with syncing mail to mobile devices. As stated here https://status.live.com/detail/hotmail they say the issue has now been resolved. Whether or not that is the case what you can do is try following steps provded in the article below:

iOS: Unable to send or receive email

If all steps in the article fail to resolve the issue I would suggest to refer back to microsoft.
