Desperate for real support. Two acocunts,
First, I get a message from Microsoft that's says: "It looks like this email is used with ore than one account from Microsoft. Which one do you want to use? Options: (1) Work or school account Created by your IT department (2) Personal account created by you. If I choose Option (1) then I don't have a password that works. I try "Forgot my password" but that screen goes no where. There is a verification type thing where you type in letters you see...it does nothing nothing at all. Option (2) I can sign in but then get this message "Something went wrong. There is a problem with you Microsoft account. To fix this, sign in to account.live.com from a brower. No idea, tried that address, deleted the account ect. So frustrating. Been going on for weeks. Ok what do I do, not tech support. I don't know Ecolabs administrator. My project is falling because the rest of the team is on but I am not. I am not a employee, I am a contractor. They setup the guess access and I can attend meetings. I have been able to get online with team a few times but never when I try to sign in. I am willing to Pay $$ for support. I don't have 365, I have professional Plus is that the issue? Help...!!
Teams External Access vs. B2B Direct Connect vs. B2B Collab
I've received conflicting info regarding whether B2B Direct Connect and Teams External Access are the same thing. Last time I looked into this, they both seemed to rely on the 'Default External Identities' controls from Entra - they were two faces of the same coin. Now it's not so clear. Can someone clarify?Security loophole in Private Channels?
We came across an interesting use case in our organization today. We have a Team and a private channel within that Teams team. Within the private channel a subsite was created. I am not an owner or member of the Team nor am I a member or owner of the private channel. However during creation of the subsite I was able to be invited with unique permissions to the subsite and I was successfully able to access it. After the initial creation of the subsite, our admin was not able to add or remove or effect any additional permissions on that subsite. Is this a loophole? I expected that without being a member of the private channel I would have absolutely zero access to any items associated with the private channel and site. Which has remained true (when I go to the private channel URL I get denied access) except that I do have access to this specific subsite. My instinct is that the reason permissions cannot be changed after the fact is that this is a genuine loophole and permissions weren't intended by Microsoft to be able to be granted at all on the subsite. This is due to the fact it is under the private channel and permissions should only be able to be changed via the admin UI or from the Teams application. Has anyone come across this in their work? Any guesses or explanations for why the subsite access would be initially available? Is this just genuinely a loophole in the permissions architecture?
External sharing recommendations?
Our Teams environment is fairly restrictive when it comes to external sharing. We do not permit OneDrive external sharing, and Teams sharing is disabled except for guest accounts that IT creates. That has become a bit of a pain when we need to provide access to external entities that might need just a one-time access for files. Creating a guest account for a one-time/short-term use takes time and seems administratively cumbersome. Anyone have any suggestions for these sort of needs?Please tell me how to disable the Pin Copilot message
Morning! I wrote a message yesterday but nobody replied, so here's another one so it doesn't get lost Can somebody tell me how to disable the annoying "Pin Copilot Chat" popup? every morning I have to say "Maybe Later" when I really mean to say NEVER IN A THOUSAND YEARS
Status available for internal only
For the love of God, please add the ability to make my status show as away for external and available to internal team members. This seems so basic and would make my life so much better, yet I can find no solution. If I show as available, I am constantly bombarded by external clients. If I set myself to busy or away, then my staff think I'm unavailable. Please develop a solution!
