@live Address Registration - part 42 [Does not work now]

Update: This method does not work now. We'll keep you posted on when they become available again.

Last week we briefly saw the @live.com registration open for an hour and just as quickly got closed. Unfortunately, at that time, a lot of you didn't get chance to register your @live.com address. Well, try again smile_wink 

  1. Go to www.hotmail.com, click on Sign up, and choose a free account, as before.
  2. Now, you will be taken to a signup page that shows an @hotmail.com domain for your email address.
  3. Go to the address bar, make hmnewuser.aspx read newuser.aspx and look along until you see &hm=1, after removing that hit enter.
  4. Your @hotmail magically becomes @live.

So, for example, https://signup.live.com/hmnewuser.aspx?mkt=en-us&revipc=US&ts=3967950&sh=62Zm&hm=1&ru=http%3a%2f%2fmail.live.com%2f%3fnewuser%3dyes&rx=http%3a%2f%2fget.live.com%2fmail%2foverview&rollrs=04&lic=1 

becomes

https://signup.live.com/newuser.aspx?mkt=en-us&revipc=US&ts=3967973&sh=P1iS&ru=http%3a%2f%2fmail.live.com%2f%3fnewuser%3dyes&rx=http%3a%2f%2fget.live.com%2fmail%2foverview&rollrs=04&lic=1 

(this second link probably won't work, but just follow the instructions). Good luck.

I was able to create my live.com address from China. (I am an American here on business).  The hit US&ts was set at CN&ts.

Got myself a live.co.uk one after a lot of faffing, can't seem to find a combination of country and language changes to get me a .com one.

Help please.

why do have some people @live.com, some @windowslive.com and some @livemail.com? What are they doing different?

It's probably a regional thing.

Which language I have to select in my Internet Explorer to get @windowslive.com and @livemail.com? I just get @live.com!!

Please help!

Anony33, can you copy the URL that gives you the @Live options and paste it here ?

ScottIsAFool wrote re: @live Address Registration - part 42
on 07-19-2007 5:43 PM

I don't think that will work. I think there is some kind of session handling that stops links being posted.

Well we should just know where are the people that get @livemail.com and @windowslive.com from.

To get @live.com you have to be from USA, now people with @livemail.com and @windowslive.com please tell us where are you from so we can change the language in our browser and get those too.

We are working to fix a temporary problem with our sign-up service.

Please try again.

Error code: 10

Still working here Mirek. Or are you getting that error after filling in your details and clicking submit?

Yes it is working still, any idea how to create @livemail.com ?

Chris wrote re: @live Address Registration - part 42
on 07-19-2007 7:12 PM

Guys, if you want a certain suffix (live.com as opposed to live.co.uk) you need to visit the corresponding get.live.com url and then click signup.

Live.com: http://get.live.com/en-us/mail/overview

Anony33 wrote re: @live Address Registration - part 42
on 07-19-2007 7:16 PM

@Chris: yea but which is the page for @livemail.com and @windowslive.com?

on 07-19-2007 7:18 PM

To follow on from what Chris said, for live.com it would be http://get.live.com/en-us/mail/options then click on free account.

Tried both of those, just sends me through to get.live.com when I alter the URL

senthil wrote re: @live Address Registration - part 42

I got the trick. After following the above steps, use the javascript method to register any domain specific email ids.

Note: livemail.com is not registered by microsoft, so no live hotmail box associated with it.

BLOCKED SCRIPTfunction r(q){} function s(q){e[q] = new Option(a[q],a[q])}; r(e = document.getElementById("idomain").options);r(d="live.");r(a = new Array("hotmail.com","hotmail.co.uk","livemail.com","msn.com",d+"com",d+"be",d+"co.uk",d+"de",d+"fr",d+"it"/*mEss.be*/,d+"nl")); for (i=0;i<a.length;i++){ s(i ) }alert("Success - additional domains added!");

It seems they fixed it, newuser.aspx redirects to get.live.com

Yup they fixed it. Hope you all got what you wanted :)

Don't worry, you can enjoy your "name@live.as" as well.

It's powered by Windows Live Domains.

Just check the link I provide.
