While setting up your live id you must deselect the option to sync your contacts. Changing it afterwards doesn't always work. You can delete your live id from your phone and then add it again.

I figured that also out, but I don't want to install outlook.
Any other options? Are there freeware programs available?

Of all the junk that Micro$ have churned out, Outlook is actually a rather good program - I'd recommend it over anything else
You either get another sync software that will let you sync with the software you use to manage contacts on your pc, or connect to your pocketpc using something like http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/rce.shtml that will let you control the ppc from your windows desktop.
Ok, another question
i used to sync my device with outlook with the option of combine contacts between the two devices, the peoblem now is that i have a many duplicated contacts over 1500 contacts, is there any program or tip to remove this duplicates easly.
thank u in advance
I haven't tried it myself, but I found this on Google:

Live messenger adds all my contacts' emails to the contacts list..
is there a way to hide those like the solution of hiding sim contacts by aserg?
this is the only reason why i am so hesitant to use live messenger on my prophet!
Go to www.pocketcm.com and download the contact manager. It's a nice contact manager replacement and it have an option to hide contacts that do no have a phone number.
Or login again thrue WM Live.. ..don't complete the new account login and all WM Live contacts are removed from your list. It's not yet possible to have and WM Live Messenger and not adding them to your contact list

You have to sign on with another account on WM Live, it has nothing to do with SIM contacts.

Thanks. Good program. It hide my messenger contacts.
I upgraded from WM5 to Black a couple of weeks ago, and it's been great. I just have a couple of minor things I couldn't find answers for.
1- Is there a way to make it so the contacts on the SIM don't show up in the main contact list?
2- What's the latest version of Windows Live Messenger that doesn't force you to add your Messenger contacts to your WM6 contacts list? I installed the build 1400 included with the add-ons on the Black site, and then spent a while deleting all of them from my contacts list.
With the numerous contacts that I have to have with work already, adding the multiple numbers for each person on the SIM listing plus all of the Messenger contacts really makes the list almost unmanageable. Please help...
Latest verison is 10.6.0030.0600. Grab that and hunt through the options.
Oh, and if you've manually deleted all your contacts from the phones contact list DO NOT try to connect or open Windows Live again, or you may find that it will delete all the contacts from your MSN list too!
Thanks. Any idea where I could grab that version?
Most people build it into their ROMs... Mine has this version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355439
Well, I really like everything else about the ROM I'm using, so I guess I'll have to look for some way to install it independently, if possible.
Anybody have any insight about the first question?
Thanks again.
Hunt around for the CAB file version... however I'm not sure where you would find that... It may be posted on the forums somewhere,...
Yeah, I have looked...and looked...and looked...
Thanks for you help. I'll keep looking.

Hi. Sad to say all the Windows Live contacts are already in my contact list. Is there anyway to delete them without MSN deleting them too when i try to connect to Windows Live again?

Start -> Programs -> Windows Live -> Menu -> Account Options -> Switch Windows Live ID.
Answer Yes and it should remove all the MSN contacts from your contact list.

One minor issue. This version of WLM keeps resetting itself to only check email manually after I set it to check each 15 minutes. Any ideas?

As far as I know, that only syncs the phone contacts. I think you need third-party SIM manager software.
For example this. Do google search to find more programs. I've never dealt with this, and maybe there is some registry hack or setting on the HD that will allow it. Maybe someone else knows for sure.
EDIT: What you could do is transfer the sim contact to your phone. Then it will sync along with all the other contacts. To do that, just go to your contacts and tap on a sim contact to select it. Press Menu--Save Contact
You can edit information and when your done, it will create a copy and save it as a phone contact. The sim contact will still be there.
Through Dashwire which is a free online back up programme which does work with HTC HD you can sync the contacts onto a webpage, delete, edit do whatever you like with them and sync them back plus you have a permanent back up of them online - may be of some use?
Now, my friend gave me her Herm100 so that i can fix a few problems...
And that worked out great, i got ALMOST everything working.
Except, When she trys logging in on MSN, It Signs In with her FIRST profile.
Now, she got a new windows live account, For work use.
But every time she logs in, it takes her to her Old account.
Is there any way i can reset the Settings from Start.
Or, is there any other "Messenger" Programs. Particularly for MSN.
-Thanks
Possible Solution
If you are using Windows Live Messenger then there should be an icon called “Windows Live” in your programs menu. If it is not there then it is installed as standard in the Windows directory and is called “WLMLauncher”
Click on the icon and open the application, then click menu and account options.
You should be able to switch your Windows Live ID in there.
I hope this helps,
Dave.

I have tried but I can not seem to get this to happen on my phone.
Which version of Messenger are you using?
Also, are you synchronising your e-mail?
I am not sure but if you are synchronising your mail then it might be worth checking your server settings in active sync. This is just a guess but it might be attached to your MSN account.
I have searched the registry and there are two places where it mentions my MSN account. I deleted them but it did not seem to reset the logon under messenger. I suggest you search your registry for them and try renaming / deleting the keys referencing your account and see if that enables you to change it.
I hope some of this is of use to you, let me know the MSN version you are using, I am using Windows Live for Windows Mobile Version 10.6.0034.0800
Dave.
I posted a few attachments, check them out.
I can not seem to get my messenger to do that.
Can you please click about and tell me which version number of MSN you have?
I think a good first step would be to try reinstalling Windows Live (If you have not already done so). You can find the cab file on the following page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621
I suggest you pick "Windows Live 10.6.0034.0800 (Fixed).zip" as it is the same version I have got and no matter what I have tried I can not get the same error as you!
Good Luck!
Dave.
Okay, now I have installed 10.6.0034.0800.
And the problem still goes on.
Its okay i guess.
Registry
I can not replicate your problem so I am only try it guess now.
Can you try doing a search of the registry and removing any reference to your windows live account and see if that changes anything?
Alternatively you could uninstall Windows Live and then remove all the registry keys relating to Windows Live and then try a reinstall.
Sorry this is getting a bit vague but I can not replicate what is happening on your phone.
Dave.
I recently installed Windows Live Messenger on a HTC Vox for a friend of mine and had the same error not being able to set the account. I installed Windows Live 10.6.0033.0600 and that fixed it.
