    Where’d my personalized page go?

    Live Search has a new look and the Live.com Personalized Pages have a new location on http://my.live.com!  We'll have more on the update later, but for now, we're getting reports that some users are unable to access their personalized page - clicking on the link from www.live.com just redirects back to the same page.
     
    We're working on the solution that should be ready soon.  In the interim, you can access your personalized page by going to http://my.live.com/?personalized=true.
     
    Thank you for your patience and check back for more updates.

    Hi Chris, what page are you refering to?  My.live.com doesn't have a beta page (and hasn't had one for a couple years).

    I have absolutely no idea what you've just said - - anyway, I thought Live.com was about being different from the other portals, but hey ho; as long as the ui stays the same; however all the other online Live services should change their ui back to the gorgeous Wave 1-ui; but what's the deal with the ui on Live Search being completely different from all the other online Live services?

    Just don't change the my.live.com startpage, it's very good as it is - except for the disgrace that is the Hotmail gadget

    John - there is logic behind the change...part tech/development reasons, part business reasons.  The search bar will still be available at the top of http://My.Live.com, but we won't be reintegrating our code with Live Search on www.live.com.   On the bright side, this frees the My.Live.com team to do a lot more... and a lot more we are doing.  =)

    So, how come you guys changed the address from Live.com (simple, clean and elegant) to the my.live.com ??? What was so wrong for us Live.com users to have the good ol' live.com address for our personalized page (and the search engine at the top) and for those that weren't signed up - would simply get the search engine ...just like it was.

    I'm not getting why this change was made - was it a change simply because of the change - or is there some sort of logic behind it ?? ...hopefully it will be changed back (the webaddress that is, not the "logic")

    Andrew - Thanks for the info on the inconsistency in Australia.  We'll pass that along to our Australian team.
     
    Kevin & Marci - We're waiting on the Live Mobile team to implement the change.  Unfortunately we don't have an ETA.  =(
     
    Craig - The URL isn't the only change on the way.  We've been working on an updated version and just started our third development sprint. 
     
    No Name - What's the URL you're starting out on and what's the URL you keep being redirected to?  I'd suggest deleting your cookies and temporary internet files and trying again.
     
    Mamawsandy - I can only help with issues on My.live.com.  If you're having trouble with http://Spaces.live.com, you can try the "Help Central" or "Feedback" links at the bottom of the page to send a message to the Spaces team.

    my.live.com is pretty good (apart from the fading header). One problem that seems to be a rather large inconsistency is that even though I get my news and weather localised to Australia, the stocks link to msn money in America. There is an msn money in Australia, so why don't you link to that?

    Matt, Erin, and Kenton - Thanks, we're working on that one.  Looks like an entry on the Mobile side that we missed.
     
    Khristopher - Right now we can't offer the Personalized Pages in Canada.  Unfortunately we don't have any information on whether that will change.
