Old Microsoft Office 2010 (Unknown version) license
Hello everybody, I've been having an annoying activation problem with my old Microsoft Office 2010 license because of a number of reasons. In order to provide relevant details of my case, I've made a list of peculiar characteristics of this device and this Office 2010 license bought long ago and installed in a corporate CPU now under maintenance. Original Microsoft Office 2010 (Unknown version) license provided in a DVD case was bought in 2011 or 2012 for corporate purposes, purchase not performed by me. The software was originally installed in my corporate CPU, but the case with original intallation DVD was lost over the years after several administrative changes Serial product number was carefully kept by me in an anticipation of the possibility this DVD could be lost, which came true over the years. CPU is monitored in a corporate environment and has a specific Microsoft Windows 10 license unknown by me, which DOES NOT INCLUDE Microfost Office, though. This CPU is an Intel i3 with 16 Gb of RAM memory on a 64-based Windows 10 Home Single Language OS, version 22H2. Microsoft no longer provides support for Office versions older than 2013, therefore preventing me from finding a solution in Microsoft documentation and automated Microsoft Internet tutorials/assistants. I've risked downloading and installing a non-official Microsoft Office 2010 on this CPU from a third-party website with no relationship to Microsoft because of its absence from Microsoft official sources with good results. Activation fails continuously, though, even when I copy and paste the correct serial Microsoft Office 2010 serial number I have in my backups. I have a strong suspicion this has to do with the wrong software version (Home & Student X Pro), but I am not entirely sure of it. Product number error code is 0x8007232B My corporate environment does not provide Microsoft Office to all of its computers because of budgetary constraints and the availability of alternative freeware. Moreover, they are located in an institution completely separated from where I work, because the Windows 10 version I currently use is registered with the local regional Government under an institutional corporate e-mail completely apart from this centralized IT facility. This organization is called PRODESP (https://www.prodesp.sp.gov.br), which in turn is understaffed and deals with all kinds of issues, with a particular focus dedicated to financial issues, because of the countless employees the Government of Sao Paulo State (Brazil, South America) possesses accross the entire State. Recently I tried some alternative Office suites but neither option I tried had an advanced "Find and Replace" tool which only Microsoft Office has, which made me even more strongly attached to my user experience with Microsoft Office 2010 and this is why I would like to continue using it despite this license being now almost 15 years old, and its broad operational compatibility with the current Microsoft Office 365 version, particularly with regards to file formats, recorded MACROs and many other aspects not of interest and neither discussed here. An illustrative screenshot with my problem shown on it is provided below here too. Any help from whoever is able to help me solve this problem would be greatly appreciated, particularly if provided by a Microsoft representative. Thank you.
Best setup for multiple machines
I have a live account for my email address as I have a surface and originally registered for an account to use for machine backups, browsing syncing etc. I also use onenote and wanted it syncing to a 365 onedrive account so I signed up for office 365 business basics so that I could sync onedrive and all of the associated attachments, audio records etc to it. I would love to use use the paid business account but I cant sign into the surface with the business account, only home accounts as I dont have pro. The next issue is that I use another laptop, android tablet and phone also signing into the business 365 account. These all used to sync fine but now, all other devices disconnect as the one you have signed into it connects. Not a major issue, you sign into the device you want to use, sync and then continue However i jump from device to device that often that it starts to grate on me that i cant just grab a device and sync. Is there any way I can register each device so that they are trusted and then more than one device can stay connected.
FIDO2 Office 365 and Windows Hello For Business Sign-in?
I saw that this was in preview a year ago. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Azure-Active-Directory-Identity/bg-p/Identity Is logging into Windows 10 Hybrid joined systems using FIDO security keys now working? What about signing into Office 365 desktop apps, mobile apps and web apps with FIDO security keys?
Modern Auth Looping with Outlook 2016 when Outside Corporate Network
Hello! First time poster, here. In the past ~1-2 months, our travelling users have been running into an authentication loop in Outlook 2016. They will suddenly be asked to enter their password in Outlook (the larger, white, browser-based modern authentication window, not the small Outlook client username/password authentication window). Entering their password will close the window, then the window will immediately pop back up. The Outlook client cannot be used until they come back inside our network and reboot their PC. I was able to immediately reproduce the issue on my work laptop (64-bit Windows 10 1803 running Office 2016 32-bit version 1809) by deleting my Outlook profile, deleting all saved Office-related credentials in the Credential Manager, and connecting my laptop to my smartphone hotspot (to simulate being outside the network). Starting Outlook 2016, I'll create a new profile, connect with my AD account, enter my password in the Outlook 2016 authentication box; my email will actually start loading in Outlook, then the larger, white authentication window will pop up. I enter my password, it will disappear, then pop up again, and on, and on... We have worked with MS Support on this issue for a total of ~7 hours in multiple remote sessions, and here are the troubleshooting steps they took, which all failed: -Using an app password when the MFA browser window asks for the user’s password (“invalid password”) -Adding “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity\DisableADALatopWAMOverride” to the registry, with a DWORD value of 1 -Using “Fiddler” to collect logs while the issue occurred (the technician seemed like they had no idea how to use the program, since the certificates installed by the program effectively blocked Outlook 2016 from communicating with the Microsoft servers) -Turning on Outlook logging, and reproducing the issue. The logs were not affected in any way while the looping was taking place, leading us to believe that the issue is taking place outside of the Outlook application. -MS O365 Support then brushed it off as Incident EX152471, which was announced as resolved yesterday evening, but the problem still persists in our environment. The ONLY workaround that we found, is adding "DisableAADWAM" to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\Identity\, and giving it a DWORD value of 1. But disabling Web Access Management is not a solution! Can anyone shed any light on our issue? Thank you, --Ryan
