    How to convert Microsoft 365 domain email to a Microsoft Account?


    I recently purchased and created a new domain email address in GoDaddy, "Email Essentials". I try to share a Microsoft 365 Family to this new address, but it leads me into logging in as a Microsoft Account. It won't let me create a Microsoft Account because the email address is already used for the GoDaddy email and it's not letting me log in as a Mic Acct using the password either.How can I get this newly created GoDaddy email account to be a Microsoft 365 account? I'd like the new email to be a Microsoft Account with a 365 shared family Office account.It worked easily enough when I created a

    Office 365 Outlook email accounts

    The reason I am asking these questions are that two individuals are buying two new laptops and would like to share one Microsoft Office 365 Personal.
    A has a subscription to Microsoft Office 365 Personal already and wants to share the same account with B.
    I have installed Microsoft Office 365 Personal in a second pc B and when launching Outlook all my email accounts from A were loaded. So, I cannot figure out how to install Microsoft Office 365 Personal in a second pc so that my email accounts A are not loaded.
    This raises more questions for me.
    1. So this
      • User A installs and activates O365 on User B's laptop
      • User B adds his / her email accounts to Outlook
      would not apply to Microsoft Office 365 Personal as it breaches the licence agreement?
    2. Am I correct?
    3. If it does apply how can I install Microsoft Office 365 Personal in a second pc so that my email accounts A are not loaded, and I can only add B email account on the second pc?
    4. Would B be able to access A OneDrive?
    5. Or would B have a separate 1TB free space in One drive, or only the free 5GB or none at all?
    6. And most importantly is this even legal or in breach of contract as Microsoft Office 365 Personal is for one user only?

  3. How is the email attached to Microsoft 365 NOT a Microsoft email???

    Hi, my name is Kelly, and I'm an independent consultant and I'm here to help.

    It's possible that there is some confusion between a Microsoft account and a Microsoft 365 account. A Microsoft account is a free account that you can use to sign in to Microsoft services such as Outlook.com, OneDrive, Skype, and Xbox Live. On the other hand, a Microsoft 365 account is a paid subscription service that provides access to various productivity tools such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.

    It's important to note that while a Microsoft 365 account includes access to Outlook, it does not necessarily mean that the email address used for the account is a Microsoft email address. You can use a custom domain name or an email address from another provider, such as Gmail or Yahoo, with a Microsoft 365 account.

    If you are having trouble changing the administrator for your Microsoft 365 account, it's recommended that you contact Microsoft support for assistance. They should be able to help you with any account-related issues and provide guidance on how to best manage your account.

  4. How to convert Microsoft 365 domain email to a Microsoft Account?

    Create a Microsoft Account with a Private Domain

    Background

    When you have an existing domain such as www.myprivatedomain.com with existing email accounts using Google apps for business, and you purchase a surface pro for work purposes, you want to be able to sign in using the Microsoft id not a local account. usually,
    we go to account.live.com and create a new Microsoft account using an existing email ie: *** Email address is removed for privacy ***... Microsoft emails a verification code, and BAM, a new Microsoft ID is created which you can use for onedrive, onenote, office 365 etc.

    The Problem

    Microsoft just set out a policy where you need a gmail, yahoo, hotmail or outlook email to create a Microsoft account. When you try using your own email address it says "You cannot create a Microsoft Account using this email, please try again with a gmail,
    yahoo or outlook.com email address"

    In my case, the domain is a godaddy domain, and the email is through Google Apps for business. We are NOT using azure but we do want to use 365 for office. We are paying for 365 accounts using the aforementioned google app email users and have never had
    any issues using a google app managed email account as a Microsoft Account.

    Question

    How can I create a microsoft account using a private domain
