Windows 10: Account transferred, can’t sign in.

Hello, I have a personal Microsoft account through an old school email. The school recently migrated my email account to a new account. My windows PC is set to sign in to the old account, so I receive the message “You can’t sign in to this account. Try a different account.” Trying to sign in with the new email account, my work account, or any other windows account gives the message of incorrect username/password. Do I need to uninstall windows from my computer, buy s new license, and reinstall?

Hi Gloria,

The error code that your are getting when adding an account is usually caused by the following:

• Your phone has an incorrect date and time set.
• You do not have a data connection.
• Your phone is in a "bad state."

We suggest that you follow the steps on this link to set up your Microsoft

Cannot sign in microsoft account.

My device: Lumia 520. GDR2.
I cannot sign in my Microsoft account on my device. It didnt say any error but Microsoft account is not listed in Email and account list. When I click add button, it will show microsoft account option but after press sign in, it is still not shown in email
and account. Another problem is i cannot delete facebook account. Error code: 0x83cf1202. I have tried as suggested here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2475837/en-us#step0x83cf1202 but as my Microsoft account is not shown, I cannot do step 6.
