Tenho um e-mail corporativo (sou o adm único, nao tem ti) que faço login na conta do powerbi, contudo, meu celular com o authenticator foi perdido e já nao tenho mais acesso, por este motivo, nao consigo mais logar na conta pq ele sempre direciona para o authenticador que nao tenho mais acesso e não abre a possibilidade de receber o codigo por outro meio, (sms ou email). ja tentei vários recursos (chat, telefone do suporte) para recuperar a conta e nao consigo. Todas as opções direcionam para o autenticador. solicito a microsoft que dê uma solução, resetando o autenticador anterior para que eu possa acessar a conta e incluir métodos alternativos de desbloqueio, ou sugira outra solução.44Views0likes1CommentM365, Entra ID, Google Password Manager Passkeys
I went into my tenant, opened the Entra ID Admin, and enabled passkeys (fido2) authentication. I want to use Google Password manager since it will work across al my devices/platforms (Windows, Mac, Android, iOS). I went into the security settings for Microsoft 365 account to add an authentication method. I am happy to say that "passkey" is listed as an option, so I created a new passkey in Google Chrome/Password Manager and named it after my userid in the tenant. To test it, I logged out and attempted to log in using the passkey. The option came up, but Microsoft complained it was not a valid key. I tried again stating that I would my phone for the key and scanned the QR code but my phone said there is no passkey I would need to create one. How do I solve this? BTW: I did add Google's AAGUID in the Entra admin and allowed it but that did not solve the issue.Solved73Views0likes2CommentsTrapped in an Authenticator Loop
Dear Community, please help! I am trapped in an Authenticator Loop. I've got a microsoft workplace account, but if I want to log in, I have to type in a code from the microsoft authenticator app. I downloaded the app, but in order to use it, I have to log into my account and in order to do so, I also have to type in a code from the authenticator app, which I don't get, because to get the code I would have to log into the authenticator app, what I would need a code for... No matter which link I click, I can't open anything before I enter the code, which I can't get. I am using teams on mac, either on a firefox browser or on the desktop app and the authenticator on an Iphone. Please don't just tell me "don't use teams on a mac", this wasn't my choice. Unfortunately, my emplyer's IT support also is chronically unavailable. So is here anyone who could help me? I've already gone through the usual deleting the app, using another browser etc. options.

Vaihdoit uuteen puhelimeen. Microsoft Authenticator ei ole enää saatavilla vanhalla laitteellasi. Et voi kirjautua Microsoft 365 -työtilillesi, koska MFA-vahvistus vaaditaan. Sinulla ei ole pääsyä mihinkään vaihtoehtoiseen todennusmenetelmään. Tarvitset apua suomeksi, jos mahdollista.41Views0likes1CommentUnable to access our Microsoft Entra admin center
We cannot create a support request from the admin center because we cannot sign in Dear Microsoft Support Team, We are unable to access our Microsoft Entra admin center because even our administrator account, email address removed for privacy reasons, is being prompted for MFA, and we do not currently have access to the Microsoft Authenticator method required to complete the sign-in. As a result, we cannot access Entra ID / Microsoft 365 admin settings to reset MFA methods, issue a Temporary Access Pass, or re-register authentication methods for the affected users. Tenant/domain: itieurope.com Affected admin account: email address removed for privacy reasons Issue: MFA is required to sign in, but the Authenticator method is unavailable Impact: We are locked out of the tenant administration portal and cannot manage users or authentication methods We request assistance with one of the following recovery actions: Reset MFA methods for the administrator account email address removed for privacy reasons; or Enable re-registration of MFA for this account; or Provide a Temporary Access Pass or another Microsoft-approved recovery method so that we can regain administrative access to the tenant. We had force majeure, the only authenticator was on the phone, which was destroyed due to an unforeseen situation. (crashed) We are ready to verify domain ownership, provide billing information, tenant details, proof of identity, or any other information required to confirm that we are the legitimate owners/administrators of this Microsoft 365 tenant. Please escalate this as an urgent tenant lockout / admin access recovery issue.

Hey everyone, I have a task coming up where I need to restore several PST files back into Office 365 mailboxes. Haven't done this before at this scale and honestly not sure where to begin. I've looked at Microsoft's native import service through Purview but I have a few concerns: Some of the PST files are quite large — not sure how well it handles that I need to restore only specific folders for some users, not the entire PST I'm worried about data consistency after the restore Would prefer something that doesn't require too many admin roles or complex setup For those who have done PST to Office 365 restores — what approach worked best for you? Any tools, tips, or things to watch out for that you wish you knew before starting?108Views0likes3CommentsI received 2FA request but I can't identify the source
Since a couple of weeks, I've started received unwanted prompt on my phone to "confirm my identity": asking me to approve (second factor). Obviously, this isn't me and I reject those. At first, I was thinking it was just some phishing/stuffing attack, but I tried to find out how I could see those attempts and it is impossible to see "failed attempt" on the Windows Account web page or on the 2FA application. I have no clue how to investigate this, I would like to confirm what is the "source" of these attempts. Is there any way to have more extensive logs?57Views0likes2CommentsLost Backup with Microsoft Authenticator
Hello, I lost the phone where I had set up 2FA using Microsoft Authenticator for this email address. I had previously enabled cloud backup and have now tried to restore it to a new phone by carefully following the correct backup and recovery process. However, some very valuable and critical 2FA accounts are still missing and were not restored.72Views0likes2CommentsUnable to access Global Admin, username not recognised, need tenant recovery billing active
Unable to access Global Admin account for Microsoft 365 tenant. Username not recognised and I need tenant recovery. Billing is still active. I am the billing owner of a Microsoft 365 Business subscription for yutoriacupuncture.com.au but I have lost access to all Global Admin accounts. The original admin account email is returning “username may be incorrect”. No other admin or business emails are recognised. I have a business email associated with the admin account i can still log into. I recently briefly cancelled and reinstated my domain which may have affected tenant linkage. I also recently joined a university Microsoft 365 organisation which may be affecting sign-in routing? I have tried login.microsoftonline.com, admin.microsoft.com, password resets, and incognito browsers with no success. I have tried contacting support via phone and email but keeps cutting out, saying it can't identity me, or sends me into a loop hole with the support chat bot. I need Microsoft to escalate this to tenant recovery or Data Protection team to restore Global Admin access using billing and domain ownership verification.70Views0likes2Comments
