email & calendar synchronising

[marty_g]

Hi,

I'm new to Windows 8, Surface Pro 2 and this forum.

Sometimes it takes quite a while 5/10 minutes for an email to come through on my Surface Pro 2 where my Win Phone 8 Lumia 920 has already received it.

If I manually try and sync my emails I get the 'Synchronising' message in the top right hand corner followed by '[email protected] is unavailable'

I also get the same messages when trying to manually sync my calendar.

This happens every time I try to manually sync. Is there something wrong?

Thanks

I get the same message when I try to manually sync.
But on my Surface Pro email syncs are within seconds. Not sure about the calendar.
