Hello MartyXF:

Thank you for posting to the forum regarding the issues you are having with your AOL account on your Windows Phone 7. At this point there has not been a lot of detail provided regarding the issue you are experiencing. With that said I am providing you
some basic troubleshooting steps and a couple links to other threads about issues that seem to be similar to what you are describing.

The first thing I would suggest you do is go to the phone and tap settings > time + date > turn off automatically set > set the time, date and time zone manually. Once this is done, go back to settings and tap on emails + accounts. Tap and hold the AOL
account and sync.

If you still cannot get the account to sync the next thing I would suggest you do is delete the account from your phone and try re-adding it to the phone. You can do this by going to settings > emails + accounts > tap and hold the account > select delete
> tap add account > select other account > enter the AOL account details.

If the issue continues please review the following threads to see if the steps in these help.

• Nokia Lumia error code 800C0000 - wont connect to aol email
  . Several customers report that changing the incoming IMAP server number resolved their issues.
• why my inbox wont fully sync
  . Some have found that content within their mail box has lead to sync issues.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
