SharePoint Online Sites not showing up in Office 365 desktop apps
I'm having an issue for which I can't seem to find a solution. I'm trying to open and save files to a SharePoint Online environment, but Sites are not showing in Word/Excel. I tried on multiple desktops, all running Windows 10 and Office 365 and using the same account. On one desktop I'm able to see my followed Sites, on another I get the message: "There are no sites to show right now". In Windows settings the account is showing up as work or school account. I would really appreciate some help. Thanks! Ramses
Microsoft Office 2019 and 2016 for mac not signing in
hi all I am experiencing a weird issue. we are trying to register an office for mac 2019, we insert the key into setup.office.com, download the installer and install it, and when opening word or any app for the first time, we are presented with a sign in window for activation. the user then enters their respective email address which they used when they created their office.com profile and hit next to be taken to the password page and the loading screen appears and hangs there just spinning indefinitely. I have completely removed all office apps, multiple times, even manually and using Macmaster, searched and removed cached credentials from keychain, even created a new profile and tried, the problem still persists, on at least 3 macs that we are aware of. However, if I try logging in with one of our own office 365 accounts, it works immediately. what is going on?PowerShell script to change font of office apps
Hi, We are using Microsoft 365 for Enterprise for delivery office apps to users via Microsoft Intune. Currently the default font for all office apps is Calibri and now users want that it should change to Arial, 11 font. Is there a way in Powershell to make that change. I have been suggested ways to do it with .net objects or Interop. Can someone please share a sample PowerShell script or a full script to make that change. Thanks, Ashish AryaSpreadsheets in Space just became more powerful with a new API in Microsoft Excel

Hello everyone I think it's time for me to vent my frustration about working with multiple work/education accounts on a windows 10 device... First of all, I have 3 Microsoft Accounts (1x Personal; 1x Work; 1x Education) and oh boy, it's very very frustrating to get all these 3 Accounts work together on the same windows 10 device with one Userprofile. Working with my Personal and Work (or Education) account on the same device works fine, no problems, but as soon as I add additionally either my Work or Education Account in the Windows 10 settings under "Account > Email & accounts" things starting to get complicated. Sync issues across every app that uses one of these work/education accounts (classic Office Apps, ToDo, Edge, OneNote) Upload blocks in the office apps (Word, Excel...) & Credential Errors 4x/day a notification toast that my work accounts need to fix... blabla -> I click okay, now fix it -> Accounts fixed -> later in the day, same error occurs... I just want to use all my accounts on the same device with the same Userprofile, I really love the Microsoft 365 Platform but these things driving me crazy. I had a time, in there I worked completely online, but yeah, we all know how cool it is to work with the online versions of Office Apps. I also tried multi-bootable windows installations or multiple Userprofiles and it worked, but I often need to access files/services that are stored in the OneDrive from my Education Account or vise versa, so it's really impracticable. Then I tried to link my accounts just in these apps where I need it, but Windows 10 really have fun on it to write in my accounts under the named windows 10 settings location. Has anyone a best practice, tips/tricks etc. everything helps... Thanks.
How to update Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise (aka Office) on WVD?
I have built a custom image that was originally based on the "Windows 10 multi-session + Microsoft 365 Apps" image in the Azure gallery. As far as I can tell, the Office apps are installed on this image using the settings specified in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/install-office-on-wvd-master-image. One of those settings puts Office on the Monthly Enterprise channel, but it also disables updates. I understand that you don't want end users triggering the updates themselves, and maybe the typical sysadmin doesn't even want the updates getting installed during off-hours when nobody is logged in. But I can't figure out how to install the updates, period, even on a new image meant to replace the one in production. And I can't find this documented anywhere. I feel stupid. Help. 🙂HOW-TO : Use VAMT 3.1 for Windows Server activation 2016 through 2022 and license management
VAMT looks like legacy, albeit being updated and tremendously helpful: Do you use VAMT to manage your Office and Windows Server licensing, modern Windows Server or Office ADBA, traditional KMS or MAK? License assignment and reporting at scale? You should. In many cases it can also assist to get rid of KMS Server altogether and making it super easy to determine activation methods, migrate to other keys or from KMS to ADBA where appropriate. Whatever your usecase is, VAMT 3.1 is still being updated with every release of Windows ADK. One reason is the appearance of new OS or Office LTSC releases, but also added support to manage your Windows Client and Windows Server ESU at scale. WS 2012 / 2012 R2 ESU will be next. The issue: If you are using it, you might be currently on a release that may not allow to add Windows Server 2019 GVLK, or otherwise one that does not allow to add Windows Server 2022 GVLK. How to adress this: I found a workaround for this, without fiddling in the files. - Install ADK Windows 10 before 22H2 > VAMT - Install all needed GVLK keys in VAMT 3.1. - Windows Server 2008-2019, Windows 7-10 - uninstall ADK. - install Windows 11 ADK (currently latest 22H2) > VAMT - run VAMT, choosing the same database, - add Windows Server 2022 GVLK keys to VAMT. - now is a good time to backup the database using the latest SQL Management Studio (SMSS) Hint: Preferably place the VAMT database into an appropriate central SQL Standard instance, instead of the default SQL Express 2019 or later (e. g. Citrix Studio / PVS / License DB instance). The VAMT DB is a quite compact, mostly static database. Running an SQL Express instance for just this matter increases RAM and management overhead, even though SQL Server (Express) 2017 - 2022, can now be directly and automatically patched via WU / WSUS / Azure Update Manager etc.
