When you double-click on the affected account, then in the popup window that appears click on the Check Status button you will see some more detailed connection information. In the window that appears (the “Account Connection Status” window), if you see the message that the ‘account looks to be closed’ but you know for a fact your account is not closed and is active and open, you’ll want to follow the steps below to resolve that error.
