Office 365 mapping accounts so that Dirsynch is connecting correctly.

LS,
We have Users in O365 (mail) There is no sync to the local AD system (so users have 2 userID's, one for logging on the PC in the local intranet and one for their O365 mailbox)
We want to create a new Active Directory forest. The users created in O365 we want to 'export' e.g. first name, lastname, E-mail address etc and use to populate the new AD forest.
When this is filled we want to start the dirsync tool.
What extra actions have to be done so that the users are mapped to the already create O365 users. (I don't want new accounts created unless that a can map them in O365). In the future we don't want to manage the account in O365 only from AD on premise.
Regards,
Peter

  • Office 365 Exchange Account Deleted & Overwritten?

    I've run into a problem where I need to recover an Office 365 Exchange account, but it doesn't exist in Deleted Accounts. Below is a summary of the events leading up to this problem:
    An Office 365 account was deleted
    A shared mailbox (using the exact same email address as the deleted account in step 1) was created
    It was determined that there were email and contacts that needed to be saved from the original account
    In the Deleted Mailboxes list, the deleted mailbox did not exist
    The shared mailbox was deleted
    In the Deleted Mailboxes list, the deleted shared mailbox existed, but not the original
    I'm currently in the process of using eDiscovery to try to recover the email from the account, but is there a way to actually recover the original account at this point?
    I realize that the smarter option would have been to convert the original account into a shared mailbox, but at the time none of the old data was needed. Deleting the account was an easy way to clean out all of the old data.

  • Can't connect to Office 365 mail account via Apple Mail (Exchange)

    I recently upgraded to OS X Yosemite, but had this problem before upgrading as well. I have an Office 365 mail account, but cannot sync it via Apple Mail. I went into my Apple Mail accounts and tried connecting my Office 365 account through the Exchange option, but it will not connect. From my knowledge, this is not an uncommon problem but it is very inconvenient. Is there any way to get around the glitch, or anything I should be doing differently? I do know a couple people with Office 365 accounts who have been able to make it work, but they apparently did not do anything differently when setting up their account.

    Sometimes this issue is caused by a misconfiguration or incompatibility of the Exchange server, or perhaps by a bug in Mail. If so, you won't be able to resolve it yourself. The fact that your iOS devices may be working well with the same account isn't relevant, because iOS uses a completely different protocol (ActiveSync) to communicate with Exchange servers. By default, OS X Mail uses the EWS protocol.
    Each of the following steps has been reported to help with Exchange issues, at least temporarily, in some cases:
    1. Back up all data. Open the Internet Accounts pane in System Preferences and check to make sure you don't have duplicate Exchange accounts. If you do, delete all but one of the duplicates. If there are no duplicates, delete the account and recreate it with the same settings.
    2. Rebuild the affected mailbox.
    3. Reindex messages.
    4. Follow the instructions in this support article to disable autodiscovery. You may need to get configuration details from the server administrator.
    5. In the Keychain Access application, delete the password item for the account. The next time Mail tries to access the account, you'll be prompted for the password. Check the box to save it in the Keychain.
    6. If you've created subfolders of the Exchange inbox, log in to the server through its web interface, move the messages out, and remove the subfolders. The inbox should have no subfolders.
    7. Synchronize with the server using IMAP rather than EWS. This is only possible if IMAP is enabled on the server.
    8. Consider using Outlook instead of Mail to access your Exchange mail.

  • How do I get Thunderbird to connect to a properly-configured Office 365 mail account after shutting down and then restarting the client?

    I get my Office 365 account set up and working in Thunderbird. I can download and send mail just fine using the auto-detect or manual account settings recommended by Microsoft/Outlook/Office 365. Everything appears to be working as it should as long as the client stays open. When I shut the Thunderbird client down and restart it, it can no longer access the Office 365 mail account. I get a popup error message:
    The current operation on 'Inbox' did not succeed. The mail server for account (my Office 365 account) responded: User is authenticated but not connected.
    It has no problem connecting to Hotmail, Gmail and other email services, and I can access Office 365 through the web client, but Thunderbird refuses to connect. If I remove the account and re-add it, I can have full access to my email again, but only as long as Thunderbird stays open. If the client gets restarted, it's gone again.
    How do I fix this?

    I think you might be having a cached password problem. I was having it and was able to resolve by deleting my stored password in Thunderbird. I referenced

  • Office 365 & Microsoft Account directory merge

    The Azure account is managed and run by a Microsoft Account user. The same user has a Office 365 subscription so it has an work/organization account as well. Because the Microsoft sign-in pages are confused and messed up if a user needs to use different
    accounts for different services (for example, when the user tries to go to portal.azure.com, it is sometimes automatically logged in using the Office 365 account which naturally does not work in Azure), we are thinking of merging these two directories
    under one account. Based on the following articles it should be possible:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn629581.aspx
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn629580.aspx
    However, some crucial information are missing:
    It is possible to rollback the merge (decouple/untrust the two directories) later on? How?
    Based on
    http://blogs.windows.com/business/2014/11/07/windows-10-manageability-choices/ the Windows 10 will (finally) support Azure AD accounts. Will it work flawlessly or this merge will make some issues (currently, we are using Microsoft Account to sign-in
    to Windows 8.1) or lost functionality (for example, user will need to choose whether to log-in with Microsoft Account and live without Azure AD dependent functionality like auto-login to Office 365 apps/services or vice versa)?
    Are there anything else we should be aware of?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your post.
    It is possible to integrate Windows Azure account with an Office 365 account and here are the steps you must follow: 
    Logon to the Windows Azure Portal
    https://manage.windowsazure.com.
    Click on Application Services | Active Directory | Directory | Custom Create.
    Change the Directory dropdown from the default
    Create new directory to Use existing directory
    and click the Check box.
    Next you are logged out of the Windows Azure administrative account and you are redirected to the Windows Azure Active Directory logon.
    Logon with a Global Administrator account from the Office 365 tenant that you would like to integrate.
    After sign in you are prompted to add the Windows Azure administrator account as a global administrator for the Office 365 Tenant directory, click on
    Continue.
    Logout of the Office 365 global administrator account and then logon to
    https://manage.windowsazure.com with your global administrator account.
    I did not find any MS article about rollback the merge.
    For the Account related issue, i think you may ask Azure support:

  • I am using office 365 for my email, the signature wont work correctly when being sent through macmail

    I have set up an email signature in office 365 so I can pull the signature in for numerous pcs, macs and mobile devices. It works well from the pcs and when a mail is sent from the webmail, but when I send a mail via my desktop macmail, it loses all its formatting and links/images, and sends a plain text version.
    Is there a fix for this, I cant see anything in the set up for macmail, I have spoken to Microsoft but they have said post on here to see if anyone is having the same isue,
    thanks,
    Ian

    go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and try to reset it there. when updating to ios 7 it does have activation lock so you have to know the apple id and password. contact apple and they make be able to assist you with apple id password.

  • Windows 8 Mail App - Not setting up with Office 365 Account

    Hi - I'm trying to get an Office 365 Exchange account set-up with the Windows 8 Mail app.  It's giving me an error stating the following:
    To sync this account, you first need to: Make your Windows user account an administrator. 
    I do not want to give admin privileges to the individual user account on Windows (as the error is stating that it wants me to give admin privileges to the local Windows 8 account - not on Office 365) and I cannot find any restriction set-up in the admin
    console/settings on Office 365 (or in Widows 8) that would require this privilege. 
    This same account (on Office 365) can connect fine via Outlook 2010 and a Windows Phone 7 mail app. 
    How can I solve this?..

    Derek,
    Can you please share the UAC setting or GPO settings you used to fix this in Windows 8?  I've gone to the lowest available setting in the UI (there appears to be a lower limit that a NON-admin user can manually set UAC to and to get any other levels,
    you need to use GPO) and still no luck. 
    Thx,

  • Office 365 account 60 minutes

    I have an Office 365 home account, installed Oct. 2014 and am located in the UK. There are 3 users on the account (out of max. 5). One other user is using the monthly 60 minutes Skype credit. I am looking for it on my own account and it doesn't show. I understood 60 minutes was for each user.  Is this correct?  If so, how do I get the minutes. 

    I think the "free skype 60 minutes" with office 365 is a scam. This is the 3rd year running I have tried to use the so called free minutes but can't find a link to it.Who the hell needs skype anyway when you have better VOIP programs like facebook calling and WhatsApp!Microsoft is a dying breed and will throw any lie to the unsuspecting public to gain attention. Their windows phone is all but dead and buried. Soon their PCs and X box will go the same way.And that pathetic search engine bing! Bing is going bingo into the trash can.Anyway, I am soon discontinuing and deleting my skype account, and from next year, I shall be using chrome equivalents for word, powerpoint and excel. 

  • Calendar bug with Office 365 for Education (exchange accounts)

    I have an Office 365 Exchange account provided by my University. When I add the account to my Mac, Mail.app and Contacts.app work perfectly. However I receive an error message in Calendar which states that “Calendar needs a valid email address to connect” to my account. The address is clearly valid since it is working in Mail and Contacts. Furthermore, this account works perfectly in iOS Mail, Contacts, and Calendar. The issue is only with Calendar in OS X. Upon researching online, it appears that this issue will occur on Macs if the account is hidden on the Exchange Global Address List (which is true for my account). Below are a few additional points that are related to this bug:
    1. iOS connects to Exchange through ActiveSync which is why I don't see the issue on iOS devices.
    2. OS X connects to Exchange through Exchange Web Services (EWS). OS X supports EWS for Calendar syncing only when a users name is listed on the Global Address List. If the account is hidden (and they usually are for Office 365 educational accounts at Universities complying with FERPA laws) then Calendar.app cannot connect and sync the users calendar. I am not sure if this is by-design or a bug.
    3. The third-party Mac app 'BusyCal 2' also uses EWS to connect to Exchange and it will work regardless of the visibility of the user's account on the GAL.
    This has led me to two conclusions: Either  (1) Apple has a bug in Calendar.app, or (2) the bug is in EWS and Busycal 2 is forcing some sort of work-around. It's likely that Apple and Microsoft will need to work together to fix the issue. I've attempted submitting a bug report to Apple but I have no way to contact Microsoft since I am not an admin for the Office 365 plan that my school uses. I would need to go through my admins but they don't seem to care much about this issue. So pretty much I'm left helpless at this point :/
    Does my analysis seem valid or does anyone else have any points to contribute? I would appreciate the assistance

    Hi,
    There are two ways to share read access to your calendar on premise to Office 365. The method you choose depends on your requirements and the level of access that you want to give to the calendars. But providing write access to the calendar is not possible
    in a Cross-Premise scenario.
    For more information, here is a blog for your reference.

  • Can not setup email account on Bold 9900 with office 365 POP PORT 995

    Hellow Please your support. I can not add an office 365 POP account wih SSL 995 portpop3: outlook.office365.com SSL  port 995smtp: smtp.office365.comSSL port 587On a computer the setup go throught with no problem. If there a way to set the port when add an email account ?

    Microsoft told you that? Very strange. Did you even try the wizard? Oops...Oh shoot...you are on an old legacy BB device with BIS. Sorry, forgot about that. EAS does not work with BIS, but if they face OWA to the internet for this email, it can integrate with that. I'm pretty sure that Office365 faces OWA.
    I don't remember about configuring POP...I gave it up years ago. Only use IMAP and EAS now, no need for ancient POP.

  • Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    I upgraded to Mavericks on 4 seperate computers, an 2 iMacs, MBPro and an MBAir and ALL four no longer connect to Microsoft Office 365 email accounts either with Office 2011 or the built in Mac apps.  Apple support says "Microsoft knew for a year that Mavericks was coming out and it their job to make it compatible".  I repsonded that their own Apps like Mail, Contacts and Calendar don't work either and they attempted to trouble shoot those apps only to no avail after 4 hours and a Mavericks reinstall.  I have also tried an Office reinstall.
    Right now I am no where, stuck between two companies who say it's the other guys fault......

    Me again:
    A colleagues more formal description of the problem:
    We have had a major problem with people working directly off of the afp reshares with MS Word.
    Word creates "Word Work Files" and usually is able to store them in either "Share/Temporary Items/uid/TemporaryItems/" or "Share/.TemporaryItems/folders.uid/TemporaryItems" as long as permissions are correct.
    This works under 10.5.7 seed release 9J39 with direct attached storage, but with the Xsan reshared the word work files appear in the same folder as the opened document even though the permission for temporary items are correct.
    This causes a number of issues, one being that if one user has a document open and another clears out the word work file then the open document cannot be saved.
    Another issue that we have seen is where the word work file is created and then the original document disappears (although I think this may be another user housekeeping the word work files again).
    We have tried to persuade users to work on local copies of the documents instead, but old habits die hard...
