What is the best OKR Software for Microsoft 365?
So... It is finally happening. Viva Goals is less than two months from shutting down. With Viva Goals having been built by Microsoft for Microsof users, it had a certain advantage over other apps in the app store. So now, what do you all think is the best OKR Software for Microsoft 365? Because I'm pretty sure even though they were warned well in advance, there are probably some organizations still using Viva Goals that will need to switch fast!
Outlook (New) redicts to Microsoft Edge to access emails
After the recent 365 apps, a few users in our organization are experiencing an issue with accessing emails on the Microsoft Outlook (New). When we click on the Outook(New) icon and it opens and redirects to Edge window to access emails. I tried several troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue and submitted a case with Microsoft Support but not helpful so far. Anyone else experiencing the same problem ? Any suggestions or fix will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Issues with Office applications after latest updates
Following the latest (Office 365) updates, we encounter issues with Office applications in general and Outlook (Classic) specifically. Slow start-up that disables add-ins, app freezing, slow scrolling, ... Tried adding RAM - even up to 40 GB ! - but no real improvement. Only re-install of MS Office seems to have an effect in one case. Is this a general issue caused by implementing Copilot into all those MS Office apps ?
Math Assistant in OneNote M365 no longer calculates results
I’m a mathematics professor in higher education, and I’ve relied heavily on OneNote for Windows 10 — especially its Math Assistant feature — to support my teaching. While we teach at the university level, the mathematics involved is foundational: from basic first-degree equations to partial derivatives of multivariable functions, limits, definite and indefinite integrals, 2D graphing, and inequality plots. This isn’t advanced research mathematics — it’s core material for management and accounting students. In the previous version of OneNote, I could write an equation, click “Math,” and immediately get the final result. That was extremely helpful for classroom demonstrations and student self-checking. In the current version (OneNote M365), the “Math” button still appears, and it does solve simple equations — but it fails to graph more complex functions and is significantly slower than the previous version. Is Microsoft working to restore the ability to calculate final results and draw 2D graphs reliably, as the previous version did? This feature is essential for teaching and productivity. I appreciate any clarification. Best regards, José Maria E. G. Salazar Instituto Superior de Contabilidade e Administração de Lisboa (ISCAL)Replying to emails from M365 Outlook group
A problem I am stumped with, so I am reaching out for some help/guidance. One group wants to not have the emails going into their own inbox but manage and reply only from the group inbox itself (so they know the email has been processed by deleting it once replied). It worked OK to begin with and then some users couldn't reply, then more. Some still can. I have tried reindexing local copy, using browser instead of app & changing the send on behalf of permissions. Owner or member of group doesn't seem to make a difference. Error messages include "This message can't be sent because it no longer exists. It can only be discarded. Make sure you copy the contents of the message before you discard if you want to use them later." and "Couldn't send this message". Please see screenshots attached. My questions: 1: Is Outlook on M365 designed to allow users to reply from the group either as the "group" or as themselves? Information I found isn't clear. 2: If it is / can be - what can I do to make it work for all users? Thanks!MS Outlook app on Apple Watch SE
I have an Apple Watch SE (A2355) and the MS Outlook app cannot be installed on it anymore. It was an excellent way to access my work calendar on the go. The reason is that the OS version is 10.6 but 11 is needed. Is there a workaround or a fix for this? Note that I can't use Apple Calendar because my employer has disabled the Outlook calendar sharing function for security reasons.
Cannot Create Conversation on multiple ios and android devices with translator app.
Our schools heavily use the Microsoft Translator application on iOS and Android devices. Starting 10/2 all devices have started receiving the following error message "Cannot create a new conversation, please try again". This has been tested on iOS and Android devices and on multiple networks to verify the issue isn't related to filtering / firewall rules. Application has also been uninstalled / reinstalled and still receive the same error. It's clear this is affecting lots of customers yet we can't get any response from Microsoft on the issue. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5580071/microsoft-translator-conversation-feature-stopped?comment=question#comment-2261689
Office 365 Problems
Hello everyone, I have been experiencing the following problem since today: As soon as I try to open Excel, Word, Outlook, etc., they close again immediately. Online repair and reinstallation did not improve the situation. Some of my colleagues are experiencing the same problem. Background: We roll out updates at intervals. The users who were in the first interval are experiencing these problems. The update interval has been stopped, but unfortunately I can no longer undo the update. The following version is displayed: Version 2509 Build 16.0.19231.20138. The computers are running Windows 11 with the 24H2 update. Does anyone have the same problem or know a solution? Thanks in advance.
