Cannot Sign Into SkyDrive App

[smontoya2]

Want to know if anyone else is having this issue? Was using it just a few minutes prior before it signed me out automatically. I Uninstalled/Re-Installed, Powered Off & On but still no luck. I can sign in online but not from the mobile app. Maintenance maybe? WP7.5 Trophy.

Did you find out how to fix it? I'm having the same problem.

I've got the same issue... regularly use this app over the past few months... but cant log in today from my phone
I can log in fine from a PC

Message is

We could't sign you in
Try signing in with a different Windows Live ID or got to Sign in to your Microsoft account on a PC.

Same here, has anyone had a response?

Also can't sign in. Hope they fix this asap. Went to that Microsoft account link and I don't see what I have to do.

Same problem here, also uninstalled/reinstalled app and and shut down/restart phone... still can't sign in using the app.

I'm still having a sign in issue. I downloaded Sky Manager (Free) today from the Marketplace to get me by until they get this resolved.

Same here. This comes at a bad time when I'm trying to give Windows Phone another chance after tasting the sweetness of a Nexus phone from Google...
Come on Microsoft, you make fun of Google for letting people down, get your act together ;-)

Same problem here but - strangely enough - I DO have access to skydrive via the Office app > locations > Skydrive.

for a moment i sign in from internet explorer and then i need to "always sign in" and then i just pin to start that page i sign in.

and yes u can sign in skydrive with that way....my friend use android 4.0 he no issues with skydrive at android phone. the most weird part is.....

i can still "upload" picture taken from my camera or inside gallery upload using skydrive. but when want sign in from skydrive apps still cant sign in.

i just notice skydrive for apple iphone already upgrade to Skydrive 3.0 but window phone 7.5 user still stuck with 2.2 version. i think if skydrive 3.0 for window phone 7.5 avaiable soon might be fix this issues.

I, too, have this problem. I can't use the SkyDrive app. I get the "We could't sign you in" message.. this is the first issue with SkyDrive! I can use the SkyDrive manager from the Office hub but (and here's the second issue) I cannot upload/download files!

Edit: it seems to be a problem with outlook, hotmail and calendar also... as this link says https://status.live.com/ (or it's just my account??!) hopefully everything will be fixed until tomorrow. I need my calendar and notes!

Just to bring it on home. The Skydrive app is broken as of right now. There's no way (including using the "app password" option) to make it sign in.
To keep using the linked Microsoft account (mail, integrated SkyDrive, Office, etc.) all you have to do is sign in using IE on the phone and check the option to trust the device. Then sync the account and it all should be fine.

The SkyDrive app is different to the SkyDrive integrated into the phone. As that goes through your MS Account. So even if you can't use the app you can still upload/view photos, docs, etc.

I hope I was of help.

Much Love!

I was successful in signing back into the app. Seems to be working fine with no noticeable differences. Thanks all.

 

[MrSean490]

Not working again.

Works just fine for me.

Can you log into SkyDrive.com from your computer?

 

[MrSean490]

Works just fine for me.

Can you log into SkyDrive.com from your computer?

Yeah I can. I gave up and just ended up signing into SkyDrive thru the browser. The app is buggered for me it seems.

 

[Xpider_MX]

It is working fine here.

I have two step validation on for my outlook.com email, so I had to disable it and then enable it and sync to iphone device via the outlook web browser. You should use the same code that they give you for the iphone outlook password for the skydrive app password - THIS IS NOT YOUR NORMAL PASSWORD, IT IS THE TWO STEP VALIDATION PASSWORD.
