How do I create an email account in outlook

To create an email account in Outlook, follow these steps:

1. Open the Start menu and search for Outlook, then select it.
2. Enter your email address and select Connect.
3. If you have additional email addresses you want to use, enter them as well and select Next.
4. If prompted, enter your password and select Sign in.
5. After all your accounts have been added, you can choose to set up Outlook mobile or wait until later.
6. Select Done. It may take several minutes for Outlook to download your email and other data.

Once completed, you should be able to view your email, calendar, contacts, and tasks for the accounts you added.

Hi, I'm John! I will help you with this.

Are you trying to create a brand-new email address (for example, a new @outlook.com email), or are you trying to add an existing email address into Outlook?

If you already have an email account but it’s not working in Outlook

That usually means Outlook is having trouble signing in or syncing.

Could you let me know:

1. Are you using Outlook on the web or the Outlook app (Windows, Mac, mobile)?
2. What type of email is it (Outlook/Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, or a work/custom email)?
3. Do you see any error message, or does it just keep asking you to sign in?
