Microsoft Live ID is now called Microsoft Account. Having said that, let's say I log into Windows 8 as sam@email.com and run an app. That app uses the Live SDK to access my Microsoft Account profile. Before it can do so, however, I must give it explicit permission and log in. So far, perfect. Though I gave the app permission to sam@email.com I want to change it to janet@email.com so I click the app's Logout button which queries LiveAuthClient.CanLogout() from the SDK. Confusingly, the SDK returns false (I cannot log out). Why not? Once the current Windows 8 user has logged into a Windows 8 app

I know Windows Phone 7 requires you to enter you Windows Live Id on startup. Is there a way to get access to information about that account from my Silverlight app installed on the phone? Thanks, At this stage the Windows Live ID will not be available automatically to 3rd party applications. We are expecting an anonymous live id for the purpose of uniqueness identification however. Some further detail here and here on this topic. We'll see more on ExtendedProperties hopefully soon. It is not currently (with the Beta SDK) possible to get this or any other device specific information. Apparently

Does Windows Live ID or Hotmail (Passport) support OpenID based authentication? If yes, what is the endpoint url, and do I have to register my application somewhere to use it? If no, do they have their own API for 3rd-party authentication? On the Windows Live Blog , there are only two different mentions of Open ID. Neither of those point to any actual movement on implementing Open ID. Welcome to the Windows Live for Developers Blog Announcing Support for OAuth 2.0 There is no mention of a working Microsoft provider on the OpenID Web Site . Even though Microsoft is part of the OpenID board , it

I've heard different things. Seems like Microsoft experimented with a beta service , but I don't know if it's still available, or ever made it into production. If Windows Live ID is an OpenID Provider, where is the endpoint? No. Windows Live ID is not an OpenID Provider. They use a proprietary protocol. Ever since the close of their "beta" period, they've never announced plans to continue with it. toddm Check out this , I believe they use OAuth (not OpenID). Looks like it really hasn't made it into production. http://winliveid.spaces.live.com/ ( blog post permalink ) 来源： https://stackoverflow

I want to create a login form for my desktop application that user can use Windows Live ID for that. I create an application in manage.dev.live.com and use Desktop Implementation section. I use a WebBrowser control and navigate to a given address. but I don't know how to receive the token for user. If I have made a mistake please tell me how to fix that. Daniel Shue As of June 2011, Windows Live ID supports OAUTH 2.0 and should enable you to do that ( read more about it ).
