... since I had to change my Windows password on my work laptop. :mad:
I'm trying to synch up an Andriod phone with an MS Exchange Outlook account and the only change to the settings I needed to make was to update my password. But ever since changing it I get an error message "Cannot connect to Exchange server". My IT support desk say that as this is my personal phone, other than check that I have the settings right (which they are) they can't help (even though this is the phone I use for work).
If anyone can help I'd be most grateful

Have you tried setting it up again as a new e-mail account on your phone, rather than just changing the password in the existing settings? Probably worth a try...0
