Re: Clarification Needed: Features of 'M365 Chat' vs 'Copilot (new)'
We had the same query as well. To my understanding, the best answer I can give so far is that both M365 Chat and Copilot are AI-powered features within Teams, but they serve different purposes: M365 Chat: Acts as an AI assistant specifically focused on search and information retrieval within Microsoft 365 applications. It helps users find relevant information across their emails, calendars, documents, and notes. Copilot: Offers a broader range of AI functionalities beyond just search. It can summarize documents, generate creative text formats, answer questions based on your work data, and even automate tasks within various Microsoft 365 applications. While Copilot might share some similarities with M365 Chat due to their use of AI, they are distinct features with different functionalities within Teams.4.5KViews0likes0CommentsEmpowering Teams Meetings: Request for Individual Volume Control Feature
Hello everyone, I'd like to take a moment to bring attention to a potential feature that has been requested for quite some time now within our community. It would be truly valuable if Teams could incorporate a functionality seen in other similar platforms such as Zoom or Discord, which enables users to independently adjust the volume of each participant during calls or meetings. Additionally, it's worth highlighting that individuals with hearing impairments would significantly benefit from this enhancement. The implementation of this feature would be tremendously welcomed and valued by many! If you share this sentiment, please consider showing your support by upvoting this suggestion at the following https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/08295a25-7a12-ed11-a81b-6045bd864d4f.

Here are a few suggestions you can try to address this issue: Update Microsoft Teams: Ensure that you have the latest version of Microsoft Teams installed on your macOS device. Microsoft frequently releases updates to address bugs and improve performance. Check for updates in the Teams app or download the latest version from the Microsoft website. Clear Teams cache: Clearing the Teams cache might help resolve the issue. Quit Teams completely, then go to the following location and delete the "Application Cache" and "Blob Storage" folders: ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/ Note: The tilde (~) represents your user directory. Restart Teams and see if the problem persists. Adjust Teams window mode: Try changing the window mode of Teams from full screen to a different mode, such as maximized or normal windowed mode. To do this, click and hold the green button in the top left corner of the Teams window and choose a different window mode. Test if the issue persists in the new window mode. Change display settings: If you're using multiple monitors, try adjusting the display settings on your macOS device. Go to "System Preferences" > "Displays" and check the arrangement of your displays. You can try changing the arrangement or adjusting the resolutions to see if it affects the behavior of Teams. Report the issue: If the problem persists after trying the above steps, it's recommended to report the issue to Microsoft Support. You can submit a support ticket or post on the Microsoft Teams community forums, where Microsoft experts and other users can assist you further.3.7KViews0likes1CommentRe: MS Teams policies based on device
Yes, it is possible to assign different Teams policies to users based on the device they are using. Microsoft Teams offers a feature called "Device-based access policies" that allows administrators to control and customize the Teams experience for specific devices. With device-based access policies, you can define different policies for different devices and assign them to specific users or user groups. These policies can be configured to enable or restrict specific functionality within Teams, such as chat, video calls, Teams-to-Teams calls, and external PSTN calls. In your example, you can create two different policies: one policy that allows full functionality (chat, video calls, Teams-to-Teams calls, and external PSTN calls) for users using laptops, and another policy that limits functionality to only phone calls for users using a specific desktop. Then, based on the device a user is using, you can assign the corresponding policy to their Teams account. To set up device-based access policies, you will need to use PowerShell and the Teams PowerShell module. Here's a general overview of the steps involved: Install and set up the Teams PowerShell module on your administrative machine. Connect to the Microsoft Teams service using PowerShell. Use the appropriate PowerShell cmdlets to create the different policies with the desired settings for each device type. Assign the policies to the corresponding users or user groups based on the device they are using. It's worth noting that device-based access policies require careful planning and consideration of your organization's needs and security requirements. You should thoroughly test and evaluate the policies before deploying them to ensure they meet your expectations.2.5KViews0likes1CommentRe: adjust volume for individual callers in a meeting
We came across this a few days ago. Seeing that people asking for this for over 2 years looks really bad for Microsoft. This is a simple thing. Other apps like Discord, or TeamSpeak back in the days, offered it for free. I can't believe that Microsoft can't do that.38KViews8likes0CommentsRe: How to Use (and Disable) the Teams Games for Work App
Hello. My approach would be to disable it 1st and then check if it's appropriate for the organization to release this kind of feature. Of course, it depends at the kind of organization. Best Regards, Konstantinos Barlas6.5KViews0likes0Comments
