Office 365 Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  I cannot believe that a Company as big as @MSFT365Status @Microsoft @Office365 has had an Exchange outage since 9:11AM PST (at least) - resulting in a continued, now 5 hour, outage. So many tenants are unable to send or receive emails, and how there isn't world-class redundant infrastructure in-place for their Exchange server is beyond me.

  "GitHub's scale is unprecedented." No, it really isn't. GitHub: 150M total users. Office 365: 345M total users. Xbox: 500M monthly active users. Bing: 100M+ daily active users. The company that runs Office, Xbox and Bing can run GitHub. If reliability is slipping, that's a priorities problem, not a scale problem.

  @IntuneSuppTeam I have been having issue in our tenant. First, after enabling and configuring auto patch most of my devices are falling or in noncompliance for “office 365 client management “. I looked the policy that was enabled by auto patch. Many other non compliance settings.

  @S4m4_VT @Pirat_Nation Not a Linux problem, 99% of games do works on Linux tho but via workaround (That got simplified by steam in a remarkable way) As for softwares, welp you're not going to use Office 365. You have to adapt and find the right tools that works with your machine.

  @ChadBurgessAU @FranMooMoo They are using Government-spec Office 365, it will have audit logs. Every thing action down to a message on Teams or viewing a folder in OneDrive us logged. The user, the location, the action, metadata.

  @FurkanGozukara I stopped giving money to companies I can't call. In July 2024, Microsoft expected me to go a month without email. I don't own a cell phone, email is my communication with the world. I cancelled Office 365, moved my mx records for my domain and went down to $1.50 a month.

  I am really disappointed in @Apple Business. They finally launch a cloud platform for business mail, but you can’t set up a user mailbox if it was previously used in iCloud+ custom email domains?? I’m being told that it’s not just a 30 day wait, I will never be able to set those mailboxes up. And there’s no user aliases, no multi-domain email support. No multi-tenant offerings (not that I expect that yet). I get that it’s still in its infancy, but come on. These are basic features and they worked with the personal side. I found a way to create user groups with emails that seemed like a workaround to still get mail that’s addressed to these inboxes, but then I found out that they can only be emailed to internally from the same domain. Apple policies are blocking external senders. I spoke to four different support reps over 3+ hours yesterday and they don’t even understand this issue or how to fix it. They keep asking about where the domain is registered when it is clearly an issue deep within Apple systems at a very high level that needs to be changed. I didn’t like the Office 365 integration with the Apple ecosystem, which is why I was so excited for this. But not having access to my mailboxes and not even being able to implement a workaround IS A MAJOR ISSUE. What’s going on @tim_cook? How could this have shipped like this?

  @KES537 Office 365 email had these suggested replies. When the lady at my work that always emailed me about problems with the software I work on would send me a new problem, I really wanted to click: Let me know how that works out.

  The new revelation regarding windows GDID probably has pissed off various “3 letter” agencies around the world. It’s been a staple of easily tracking you and I. Too bad. Glad it’s been outed. I’ve switched out the various laptops I use for online activities such as this one for a certain Linux distribution as well as modified their hardware a bit. Yes, you can be tracked by what’s in your computer. Change it around a bit if possible. Don’t use the same box you pay bills and work remotely on to get on social media. -Proton VPN- DON’T EVER use a Microsoft account. Sign into your windows computer with an old school local account. This is a must. You can search for how to do it. Office 365 can be permanently activated on your computer as a local installation. Do it. (Massgrave) Better yet, use Libre Office and enjoy not being tracked by Office 365. I Google scans your Gmail. Be aware of it. There’s better email providers (Proton). Nobody is perfect but some are orders of magnitude less “nosey.” Download DoNotSpy11. You want to turn OFF virtually everything. You’ll be amazed at what you can shut down. Turn OFF your location / eye tracking / motion detection on your laptop if you don’t do anything else. There is at least one windows GDID changer powershell script I tested. It worked. If you sign into a MS account, you’ll get the same GDID right back so don’t use that MS account going forward. Not going into phone safety or Flock cameras or new vehicles in this post. I’ll just say this: Any time your phone/iPad etc is not inside of an rf-proof bag/case, it’s going to talk to something somewhere, even if it is “off.” You can buy those bags on Amazon cheap. Get one. If you have a newer car (on-star) it tells servers where the car is constantly. Review: Learn Linux. It’s open source, not full of spyware. Get a ham radio license. Keep your 10 year old Toyota forever. Pay with cash sometimes just to switch it up a bit and make the cashier learn to count 😎. Be aware of what devices you use that tattle on your activities and govern yourself accordingly. A little misdirection or just being quieter on social media never hurts, either. Okay end of my coffee-laden ramblings. Hopefully this helped some of you. 🇺🇸

  The Satya Nadella Turn When Satya Nadella became CEO in 2014, the narrative shifted. He made three decisive pivots: Azure cloud computing, building direct competition with Amazon Web Services. Office 365, moving from one-time licenses to recurring subscription revenue. Doubling down on enterprise software, expanding what Microsoft was already winning.

  Looks like you may be using Office 365 which is online. Better to buy a one-time purchase to install on your PC or Mac. Office Home 2024: £119.99 Office Home & Business: £249.99 Fully supported with updates and trouble shooting.

  Steve Ballmer explains the accountability trap inside founder-led companies. He had been Microsoft's 30th employee. When he became CEO in 2000, he says the first year was miserable: "Bill didn't know how to work for anybody." "I didn't know how to manage Bill." Then Gates gave him the line that changed the job: "I'm happy to help you any way, but I don't want you to need me." Ballmer says that was when it hit him: "We're not partners anymore. I have to take accountability." After Gates left, Microsoft pushed into Bing, Office 365, Azure, Surface, and hardware. Then Ballmer gives the scoreboard: "I started a company that had about $2.5 million of revenue and 30 people." "I left a company that had $22 billion in profit." I have seen this handoff problem inside scaling companies. The hard part is not respecting the founder. The hard part is knowing when the company needs one accountable owner of the decision. The diagnostic I would use: if the old partner still has veto power but no longer owns the result, the org is already confused. - Steve Ballmer on Bloomberg Television

  @Endory2 @Pirat_Nation The problem is the Microsoft CEO wants everything to be a subscription. They make a fortune with Office 365, but the consumer gaming space is a much different animal than business productivity software.

  @JenMsft Most important fix should be to remove OOBE from constantly reappearing with updates. Custom folder name can be added to new build of Windows 11 iso so appears during first clean setup. I get nagging prompts for One Drive, Game Pass, Office 365 via OOBE. Annoying!

  @NXT4EU We used to have office computers, running on an office server park. No outside computers had access. Micro$oft mandates Office 365 and OneDrive. The server may be in Europe, but where is the backup server. And more important: Who has admin rights over your files?
