Outlook error 0x800CCC0E
- Oh this is brilliant, thank you so much! This has worked for me and at last my emails are working thanks to King_Joey, you are a star!!!
I did also get a private message from MDadarkar asking to connect to my laptop with Team Viewer but sorry, I wasn’t comfortable with that.
Thanks you again for sorting my problem.

I have (had, hopefully) the same problem. I think I found the answer. A while back, AOL went to a process where you have to log onto the AOL.com website and (under your account security settings) have it generate a random password for 3rd party apps (like Outlook) to sign in to your account. So you don't actually put your real password into Outlook for your AOL email account. When you get to the password input screen, you copy & paste the randomly generated password from AOL.com.
Hope this helps!
ch075l Since I got my new laptop I am having issues with using Outlook for my comcast.net email as well. It's not my .pst as this is just newly setup. Does any one have any suggestions? I am only able to receive my email on my phone. Which is not efficient.
I know this is an older thread, but I thought I would mention this incase it helps someone else.
I am not sure if was just a fluke for me, but twice now I have had this issue on 2 work machines. Both times after trying countless things to fix it, all I had to do was manually type in the password again. After that, everything worked. (either from the authentication dialog box or the account settings).
It is weird because the passwords on these accounts haven't changed, but maybe there is some kind of timeout feature if the password doesn't get manually entered in X amount of time ?
I would be curious if this works for anyone else.
