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."

Same problem here, tried multiple computers, with fresh user profiles. I've tried all the MS KB articles available about zune connection problems and none works. The certificate doesn't get generated and there is no device visible in Zune. In device manager it shows my phone (Lumia 800) with the latest driver version (4.8.2345.0).

OS Version: 7.10.7740.16

rev nr fw: 1600.2479.7740.11451

rev nr hw: 112.1402.2.4
