"There was a problem saving the photo. Please try again."
- Sep 21, 2020
OrlaJoan Hi, wow this conversation is massive. I wonder if all are having identical issues with the photo. Must be that similar has been merged into this one.
Anyway, for the record. Something that can affect is the following.
"Teams users with mailboxes hosted on premises must be synchronized to Azure Active Directory. They can change the user profile picture providing Exchange Server 2016 (Cumulative Update 3), or above, is running on-premises."
'Change your picture in Teams'
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/change-your-picture-in-teams-7a711943-9248-420e-b814-c071aa8d9b9c
See the table with "User's mailbox is hosted in" and the "Modify user profile picture" to see if you should be able to do it.
'How Exchange and Microsoft Teams interact'
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/exchange-teams-interact
Note the 7 disclaimer as well.
"Teams honors the https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/exchange/client-access/set-owamailboxpolicy setting that's configured by tenant admins to control whether users can change their profile picture. If the -SetPhotoEnabled setting is turned off in the policy, users cannot add, change, or remove their profile picture."
same problem... it has been more than 6 months and no fix still?
I have this issue with my work Teams and personal Teams
It has been a while... how is this not fixed yet?
I have tried every single recommendation here and other threads including the "clear out cache" fix in UserVoice... nothing!!
I already wasted at least 1 hour looking for fixes online and trying them all out!!!!
