    Cannot sign on with the machine ID I set up because it is not displayed as an option


    I bought 5 identical computers and set them up the same with the id "Finances". On one I then entered my company ID to download software, but could not log in because the system was forcing me to use MS Authenticator to approve my login, which I do not use. So I rebooted the machine but now the initial id Finances is not available as the machine ID. How can I recover it so this machine is back to its initial state?

    :)

    Cannot sign on with the machine ID I set up because it is not displayed as an option

    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. Cannot sign on with the machine ID I set up because it is not displayed as an option :(

    Any suggestion?
