Nokia Lumia 800 won't connect to Zune.

Anonymous

Everytime i connect my phone to my computer the Zune software starts up.

However, it comes up with an error message saying 'Can't connect your phone, disconnect it, restart it and retry it'

I have restarted my phone and retried it 5 times, i've restarted my laptop 5 times and it still won't connect!

I found this in internet:

"The solution is the date.

I you change your date time to tomorrow it works. I think it is a problem with the leap year."
