Why can't I setup an Office 365 account on my Lumia 530?

[Windows Central Question]

cannot setup office 365 account on Lumia 530

I have several intel based 8.1 devices, all of which correctly sync using my microsoft account.

Just got a Nokia 530. This only partially sync'd common data - it did not sync email accounts - and says my microsoft account password is invalid when I attempt to set up Office 365.

Do you have an Office 365 subscription?

 

[Laura Knotek]

Are you using a personal Office 365 subscription with the same Microsoft account for your Lumia 530 and your Office 365? If so, you don't need a separate Office 365 account on your Lumia 530.

The Office 365 on Windows Phone is for a separate account such as a work account.
