If you already have an Xbox Live.com, Hotmail.com, or Outlook.com account, or if you have

created a Microsoft account on your Surface tablet or Windows PC, you don’t have to create

a new one – just sign in with the username and password for that account. If you don’t have

a Microsoft account yet, you can create one with your phone.
1. On the start screen, swipe down from the top of the screen, and tap ALL SETTINGS > email

+accounts > add an account.

2. Tap Microsoft account.

3. Create your Microsoft account.
Make sure you remember the credentials for the Microsoft account you added to your phone.
4. Fill in your account details.

5. Type in your phone number or an alternative mail address. They are used to send you a

one-time verification code and to protect your data.

6. Select how you want to get your one-time verification code.

7. When asked, type in the last 4 digits of your phone number or your mail address.

8. When you receive the code, type it in, and you are ready to back up your data and use your

phone.
You can also create or manage your account at www.live.com.
