Office 365 and Archiving

Litigation Hold is a legacy setting from Exchange 2010, so you'll probably want to avoid it.Instead,use an "in-place hold" or, in the new Compliance Center, go to 'Retention' and add a new preservation policy so that you can retain both emails and OneDrive documents either indefinitely or for a set period of time. You would need to set the preservation policy to take effect either at account creation, to preserve everything, or before account termination, to preserve the state of their data at the end of their employment, or if there is a legal/HR discovery need. Also, any mailboxes that you want to place into a hold need to have the appropriate licenseassigned (when an account that had a hold and had the appropriate licenseis deactivated and deleted, however, the hold will continue on the mailbox until the hold is deleted or expires,...

So this has been a question on my mind for quite a while but I just haven't had the time to delve into it.
I work in the healthcare industry and HIPAA and HITECH ruin my life. So to cover my bases, I am wondering if I should enable archiving on all user mailboxes for every email sent? We have the E3 license.
I see we have retention policies but what if a user deletes a bunch of emails and 2 months later we need those emails but, poof they were deleted? Wanted to get feedback on what other people do using Office 365.

  • How to use same credentials in third party web page/app/system as in Office 365 and Share Point?

    I want my users to be able to login with same username/password in my reporting system as in they use for their email, office 365 and share point.
    Since the web is in PHP i found some ideas that use CURL to get the cookie but i['m wondering if there is another way to do that?
    All API show cases and docs that i looked are so confusing that i can't even figure out if it is possible at all and how. It would be great to be able to reset passwords through my system and also to create new users. So that i have all centralized in one

    Hello,
    Your account shows that you were attempting to call a Lithuania cellphone. Your free minutes are for calls to landlines only. To call cellphones you need to purchase Skype Credit.
    Buy Skype credit
    TIME ZONE - US EASTERN. LOCATION - PHILADELPHIA, PA, USA.
    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • Outlook 2013 with Office 365 and Google Apps Sync.

    This is the scenario, hopefully somebody can give me some insight on how to resolve this.
    Outlook 2013 with gapps. Both updated.
    Outlook profile with an office 365 email account (which is as an exchange account) and google apps with our main account.
    We installed an office 365 account since its the only way that several users can share and edit the same contacts on Outlook. They use almost all contact fields. 
    Gapps its the main email address and calendar. Shared calendars are deeply used too.
    The problem is that when I edit a contact (the exchange account) I get an error -when- I edit the email field. 
    "The operation failed. The messaging interfaces returned an unknown error."
    If I make a new Outlook profile with the exchange account and the gapps account via imap setup I get not errors BUT I loose calendars sync.
    So I went back to the main profile and thought. <maybe both contacts engines are screwing Outlook.> So, since I don't care about gapps contacts anymore I disabled via:
    Disable sync for individual products
    https://support.google.com/a/answer/1041455?hl=en
    And also disabled the dynamic Global Address (just in case).
    But the same happens.
    I tried with another box, with office 2010, updated it and made a new profile with the office 365 and gapps and the same history.
    Finally I though about setting the office 365 account as imap but contacts are not downloaded. 
    So I'm between a rock and a hard place here. 
    I need to use office 365 account in the same profile as gapps account. 

    Hi,
    What’s the file size of your Outlook data file? If your data file is over size, it may cause data file corruption.
    Outlook data file corruption may cause this problem. Please try to run a repair of your Outlook data files to check the result:

    Note: You may need to run Scanpst.exe for several times until there is no error.

    The Office 365 forums are over on a different site:

    The

  • TS4463 I have just installed office 365 and now icloud will not work.  It says that I need to open or install outlook.  Before I installed 365, ICloud worked  and I believe I had Outlook loaded yet it is not there any longer.   I am lost.

    I just installed office 365 Home Premium editiion and have lost my ICloud capabilities.  I cannot sign in nor will Photostream work.   A message comes up that says I need Outlook on my computer (I had it before  the 365 was loaded).   I checked on-line and it says that windows 7 does not support outlook and that I cannot download it (don't know how I got it before).   I am totally confused as what to do.   Really upset as I needed the new office package as Windows 7 wouldn't support the 2010 started edition any longer without my buysing that.  Figured it made sense to get the newest version.  Packaging says that it contains outlook.   I don't know what to do at this point.

    Did you remove the existing installation of Office before installing the new one?
    I checked on-line and it says that windows 7 does not support outlook and that I cannot download it (don't know how I got it before).
    Outlook is part of Office 365, and Windows 7 supports all versions of Outlook back to 2003.
    I am totally confused as what to do. 
    You need to correctly remove all versions of Office on your Mac, you need to remove their settings as well. You need to save your Office Userdata from removal by moving it temporarily. I would also uninstall iCloud.
    Then reinstall Office 365 followed by iCloud.

    I did not like program Office 365 and I want to cancel your subscription and receive a refund.

    You need to talk to Office 365, whoemever you bought that sub from.
    This is a user to user forum, so no one here can really help you.
    Did you get the sub through an app? If so, that app should have a support page or a way to contact them. Their support page should also have a FAQ that would cover cancelling your sub.

  • 1.     If I buy Acrobat XI, will it recognize Office 365 and setup PDFMaker automatically?

    Recently bought into MS Office 365, upgrading from Office 2007. I have been running Acrobat X. Come to find the PDFMaker COM Add-in upon which my workflow depends enormously does not support 365.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html#main_ PDFMaker_compatible_applications
    I’m sure there is some wonderful explanation…I don’t have time…not sure I have the extra $200 either.
    Anyway, two questions:
    If I buy Acrobat XI, will it recognize Office 365 and setup PDFMaker automatically?
    How long can I count on Acrobat XI to work with Office 365?

  • Office 365 and On Premise Active Directory Synchronisation

    Hi everyone,
    I'd really appreciate some advice about Office 365 and Active directory synchronisation.
    We are a new business and to begin with started with a simple workgroup scenario with some office 365 mid-size business Office 365 Licenses. 
    We are now at the stage where we want to deploy active directory and I have some concerns about how we can set this up to use with our existing Office 365 setup.
    From what I understand you can set up a link between AD and Office 365 (or hosted exchange) using ADFS or DirSync and Password sync however this all seems based on moving from On premise exchange to cloud based and not the other way around. Has anyone any
    advise on how to setup the link/synchronisation between Office 365 and our new AD that we are deploying?
    Many thanks in advance.
    Alex.

  • ADFS single sign-on with office 365 and multiple forests

    I have 2 forests with one of them (Forest A) only running Exchange / Office 365 in hybrid mode. The other forest (Forest B) has my AD accounts for everyday user login and work. Is there a way to set up ADFS between these 2 forests in order for Forest B
    to achieve single sign-on to office 365? Today users have to login with separate office 365 accounts in order to access email and sharepoint. Short of migrating Forest A into Forest B and getting down to one forest / domain, is there anything else we can do
    to achieve single sign-on?

    Based on my research, we can have one ADFS farm servicing multiple forests, here are some related articles below for your references:

  • Outlook 2013 cached mode "mail to keep offline" - does this setting affect archive mailbox or Office 365 hosted archive mailbox?

    I have an Exchange 2013 Hybrid environment with Exchange 2007 in coexistance mode as well as Office 365. We are hosting the majority of our Exchange accounts on-premise (migrating them from 2007), and most (soon to be ALL) Archive mailboxes in Office 365.
    I have through Group policy set the policy "Select Cached Exchange Mode sync settings for new profiles" to 6 months. This works fine for the contents of the regular mailbox, but the setting is NOT being set at all for the Online Archive mailbox,
    whether or not it is hosted on-premise or in Office 365. Is this the expected behavior?
    Another question: Is it possible to have the regular mailbox in cached mode and the archive in Online mode or vice versa?

    Hi,
    The key to your questions is: Archive mailboxes are online only, they cannot be cached for offline viewing, so you can keep your regular mailboxes offline(In Cached Exchange Mode) or Online, but cannot switch Archive mailboxes to Offline.
    The whole idea of the archive mailbox is to keep your "online" mailbox with recent / important mails small and accessible on and offline. The archive mailbox is intended to store older / less important emails which are not neccessary to access immediately.
    One important reason of archive mailbox is to prevent the growth of offline files.

  • Will this API eventually support Office 365 and other hosted Lync Services?

    I have Office 365. I have Outlook 2013 downloaded on my computer with all my emails and contacts, etc.

    You can also use Outlook or Outlook Web App to import your existing PST file into your Office 365 account.
    First configure your Office 365 account into Outlook, then use Import/Export
