On the sign in screen, tap Have a SharePoint Server URL? Then enter the web address of your SharePoint server to continue the sign-in process. When your organization uses SharePoint 2013, SharePoint Server 2016, or SharePoint Server 2019, the sign-in process is different from Microsoft 365. On the sign-in screen, enter the email address and password you use for your company, school, or other organization.

Open the OneDrive app and tap the Me icon in the upper left of the screen. You can add a OneDrive for work or school account to the OneDrive app for iOS, if your organization uses OneDrive in Microsoft 365. Add a OneDrive for work or school account You can have both a personal account and OneDrive for work or school accounts. To change or reset your OneDrive password, sign in to your account online at /security. Since I can't trust users to do anything right, I nixed that idea.If you have a problem signing in with your work or school account, try signing in at or contact your IT department. I actually scripted out a solution for pre-filling in a user's email address for activating Office based on their login for the Company Portal app, but that required a lot of things to happen in exactly the right order (and one of those things was making sure the user signs into Company Portal first before doing much else). So my users have to log into Company Portal, into Word to activate Office, and into OneDrive.

Instead, you have to put your email address into OneDrive but not your password, which seems pretty odd.Įven worse: if you use Intune for your MacOS MDM like we do, there's no reason why the login for the Company Portal app shouldn't carry over into Office.

You'd think that if you open any of the Office products that first time and activate it, then since it auto-activates the rest of the Office suite using that email address, it would assume that's the email address for their OneDrive, too. I even emailed the Office for Mac team lead about it, plus a few other ideas, and never heard back. There isn't a native way to do it from within OneDrive or using a config profile (that I know of, at least).
