Can't get Copilot to work in outlook Macos
Hi guys and girls,
New here because I'm looking for help on Copilot.
I have a MS business standard account with copilot.
I have copilot running on word, excel, presentations.... BUT.... in outlook it just will not appear.
In the online outlook the copilot icon appears, but then my mail is not working..???
What do I have to do to get copilot to appear in Outlook on a Mac.
Anyone else having the same problem?
