Limited Contact picture synching support over Exchange and EAS Unfortunately, as the Social Connector in Outlook has been discontinued, you can no longer add these networks directly to Outlook via their Social Connector Providers.
Facebook integration is planned but no release date has been set for this yet. Currently you can add contacts from Twitter, Google, LinkedIn and Yahoo. To connect yourself to a social network on, you can use the Connect to social networks link in the People hub on. Similar to being connected via Skype to retrieve the user’s Microsoft Account profile picture, you can connect to other social networks to retrieve the contacts and profile pictures from these services. Social Networks connections for Twitter, Google, LinkedIn and more When you are connected to each other, you’ll see a Skype icon below the contact’s picture. This requires you to be both connected to Skype and each other based on your Microsoft Account and not via Skype usernames. You’ll see this picture when you are connected to this person via Skype or previously via (Windows Live) Messenger. The main source of contact pictures on is coming from the profile picture which people have selected for their own Microsoft Account. Microsoft Account profile pictureĪs you might have noticed, you can’t add or change a contact’s picture via the website at all.

Synching them via the EAS or Exchange protocol only provides limited support. Unfortunately, contact pictures are not being synched via the Outlook Hotmail Connector. How can I get the pictures to synch to so that they look the same on all my computers and on the website? However, when I look at my Contacts on the website or in Outlook on another computer, I don’t see the contact pictures I added. I’ve added pictures to my contacts in Outlook.
