1) View your hotmail emails in MS Outlook??

2) Convert WMA's to MP3?

I am hopeless at computers so any help would be well appreciated!

In hotmail look for your incoming and outgoing servers then just add an account in ms outlook with those. I could however be wrong you may only need to set up an account in outlook and just put the hotmail name. I think they made it easier to 'intergrate' hotmail accounts into outlook. Id be of more help but I dont have outlook on this machine.

As for wmas to mp3, go to google type wmas to mp3 conversion program or something along those lines and boom!

Cheers Malax..... one more thing seeing as you seem to know what you are talking about. I want to stick some mp3's onto a cd, but I do not want to burn them in the normal way as I will only get 70 or minutes of music. My friend said that I can put them on in a folder and this means that I will get a shitload more on.... do you know how to do this using Windows??

You add a new account in Outlook and one of the options is "Hotmail" instead of POP3. Or it's web mail or HTTP or something like that. Hotmail integration in Outlook totally fucking sucks...I really wish they'd make it a lot more intuitive and useful and less of a pain in the ass.

Cheers El Barto.... Hotmail fucking sucks at the moment. I can get in to see my inbox but I cannot access anything as it says Page Error. Ive downloaded Spyware and other stuff but that hasn't helped at all... Looks like I'm gonna have to switch to Yahoo, problem is that I cannot access my address book to copy down mates email addresses!

I think what your friend is refering to is burning the cd as a collection of files rather than a collection of songs. This way the files fit on the CD acording to the file size opposed to the length of the song. I think you would also need to make the files into small file formats (like opposed to mp3) unfortunately I've forgot which (possibly wav). The downside to all of this is that you will only be able to play the files on a computer, not on conventional CD players.

Yeah I have a very expensive one that does that. They are pretty cool but I can never find enough music to fit onto a cd to make it worth it.

Weird.

I got mine for less than $20

It's cool. Over 6 hours of music on a single disc.

DVD's can handle many times more than a CD-R, right?

I guess I'll need to get a DVD player for my ...car stereo?

Why don't you use Windows Media Player to burn the .wma files?
