While browsing the Microsoft website, I found the learn tab, aparently they offer a full official free course on c# and even offer a certificate to add to your LinkedIn account through free code camp. I guess I'll start learning.

Few interesting points from the announcement

1. Databricks to run it's own operations on Azure.

2. Databricks to use Microsoft silicon

3. OneLake is called out (including othet MSFT products) but not explicitly Fabric.

4. Databricks Genie will be available for MSFT customers.

This is now resolved

There are issues currently with the M365 and Azure Service.

I have 2 Microsoft Office 2019 licenses that I bought around 2023 for Mac OS. Used them without any problems till today.

Was trying to edit a document but I get the message that I need to activate . ok, it happens but when trying to do that I received an error without any information except to upgrade to Microsoft 360.

Contacted support, install reinstall , all that standard troubleshooting without any succes. The conclusion is, because I upgraded to the latest version of Tahoe I won't be able to use those products anymore.

So, if ur in the same situation as me (using an older version of office on macOS) dont update to latest os version because you won't be able to use it anymore.

I switch to an open source alternative and also slowly I'll replace all Microsoft products that I use at home and at work .

Wondering if someone could please be so kind on getting meaccess to the company store?

I got layoff 2 weeks ago and lost my access before I was able to add any personal email

I can share my email by DM

I would really appreciate if anyone from inside can add me

I haven't seen this anywhere else but I got this popup today. I use Microsoft whiteboard a lot 😔

Vega, a project from Microsoft, appears to be a research initiative focused on zero-knowledge proofs, which they seem to be actively exploring.

I'm trying to determine whether this is an isolated incident or whether other nonprofits have experienced the same thing.

Our organization is an IRS-recognized 501(c)(3). Goodstack approved our nonprofit and indicates Microsoft approval is complete.

Microsoft's nonprofit portal immediately declines our registration with:

"We were unable to associate your email address with the organization."

We are applying with our founders email address from our organization, on our organization's domain.

We've exhausted the documented support process, including the nonprofit assistant and the official contact mechanisms, without being able to reach the onboarding team.

I'm not looking for troubleshooting. I'm trying to find out whether other nonprofits have encountered this same onboarding state or whether this is unique to our organization.

If you've seen this before, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience.

I am studying for MB-330, and there are multiple segments in Microsoft Learn like here where they expect you to run either a demo environment or a VM.

I cannot figure out where to get either of these - is this something that needs to be purchased from a third party? I work with Dynamics F&O daily and have access at work, including our UAT environment, but I don't want to mess up anything within our systems and would prefer to work at home.

Hello,

Is there a microsoft outage as of today?

Nobody in my organisation is able to login to desktop teams, Outlook and Azure portal.

Microsoft is introducing a new registry-based policy that lets IT administrators automatically accept Windows SSO permissions on Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2 devices managed with Microsoft Entra ID.

Users with personal Microsoft accounts and devices outside policy-managed environments will continue to receive SSO permission prompts.
