How to sign in Msn/Outlook/Hotmail on ipad

  • Open the Settings App:

Locate and tap the Settings icon on your iPad’s home screen. This icon typically looks like a grey gear.

Access Mail Settings:

  • Scroll down in the Settings menu until you see Mail. Tap on Mail to open mail settings.
  • Tap Accounts to see a list of all accounts currently set up on your device.

Add a New Account:

  • Tap Add Account to start the process of adding a new email account.

Choose Microsoft Exchange or Outlook:

  • You need to select Microsoft Exchange or Outlook because MSN/Outlook/Hotmail email is managed through Microsoft’s email infrastructure. If Microsoft Exchange or Outlook is not available, you will need to use the Other option and manually configure the account.

Enter Account Information:

  • You will be prompted to enter your email details. Fill in the following fields:
  1. Email: Enter your email address 
  2. Description: Enter a label for this account (e.g., “MSN/Outlook/Hotmail Email”). This description helps you identify the account in the Mail app.

Tap Next:

  • After entering your email address and description, tap Next. The iPad will attempt to automatically configure the settings for your MSN/Outlook/Hotmail email.

Enter Additional Settings if Needed:

  • If the automatic setup fails or if prompted, you’ll need to manually enter the server settings. Here’s what you’ll need:
  1. Username: Your full email address
  2. Password: Your email account password.
  3. Server: Enter outlook.office365.com for both incoming and outgoing mail servers. This server address works for MSN/Outlook/Hotmail Email accounts as they are part of Microsoft’s Office 365 infrastructure.
  4. Domain: Leave this blank, as it is typically not required for this configuration.

Sync Settings:

  • After entering the necessary information, tap Save. You will be taken to a screen where you can choose what information to sync with your iPad:
  1. Mail: Toggle this on to sync your email messages.
  2. Contacts: Toggle this on if you want to sync your email contacts.
  3. Calendars: Toggle this on if you want to sync your calendars.
  4. Notes: Toggle this on if you want to sync your notes.
  • Adjust these settings according to your preferences.

Verify and Access Your Mail:

  • Return to the Mail app on your iPad. Your email account should now appear in the list of mailboxes.
  • Tap on the inbox or other folders to check that your emails are syncing correctly.
