MS Office 2021 does not stay activated on Mac
MacOS Senoma 14.1 MS Excel 2021 does not stay activated. I have restarted, reinstalled, relogged into my MS account on web, redownloaded Office 2021 Mac, it installs successfully, activates successfully, but every time I close program, and reopen, it says I am not activated.
It is the correct account, it is not a license problem, I paid for it with this account.
- Interesting. I have something very similar with my M1 MacMini and Excel. It'll be telling me it can't upload the current Excel file I'm working on to OneDrive, that I need to log in. Yet it IS in fact uploading to OneDrive. Still, though, to get rid of the message I need to log out and log in again.
Doesn't happen on the MacBook Air, and both have the current OS........ Strange!!mathetes
usually it's issue with accounts, maybe it would help to follow this one

I didn't see anything that quite matched my sporadic problem, and it hasn't been bad enough to cause me to lose sleep. But if it persists--or spreads to my other Macs--then I might take advantage of the ability to report in more detail the symptoms I'm encountering.
