    mobile contacts

    You have the same MS account on your phone and PC. The contacts come from your outlook.com account, along with email , calendar. The both share the same OneDirve account and files that are here.

    Your devices are connected.

    Nokia Lumia 930, Win 10 Mobile, OS build: 10.01495.1001 - Camera Backup Account - only personal OneDrive appears; cannot select Business OneDrive, even though that account has been added to phone

    I did the reset.

    And then tried setting things up using the OneDirve for Business account. I first tried to do this as a “Microsoft account,” but the message I kept getting was that either the address or password was wrong. But I know both are
    correct.

    So then I tried to sign-in using that OneDrive for Business' log-in information as a “Work or school account.” That worked.

    But then under “Camera upload,” it says, “Camera upload is unavailable because you’re signed in to this device using a work or school account.”

    Any suggestions?

    fixed. for future reference log into old account and the unlink onedrive account. Then relogin with new account and setup one drive with new account.
