Can anyone help me with this Migration please. The tenancy has existed for some time and all users have had a business standard license to enable them to use Teams and Office 365 for some time. This means that mailboxes were created automatically but these have never been used. AD Sync was in place. I am trying to migrate from Exchange 2016 to 365. I have: Checked each user has an e-mail alias in Exchange @leonardgray.onmicrosoft.com. Configured Outlook Anywhere on my on-premises Exchange Server. Enabled MRS Proxy on your on-premises Exchange Server. Use the Microsoft Exchange Remote Connectivity Analyzer to test your connection settings. Used the Outlook Anywhere (RPC over HTTP) or Outlook Autodiscover tests - it is showing no issues. Checked the permissions on the account I'm using to migrate (domain admin and has FullAccess and assigned WriteProperty permissions). We're not on Exchange server 2007 so no need to worry about unified messaging. The domains are verified. The users are created licensed. I have the CSV with the list of users. I've created a variety of migration endpoints and it verified as it saved and saved successfully.I initially tried to use a cutover migration as it is what I have used successfully in the past. This failed, when I researched the error the articles suggested that it was because AD sync was in place. So I turned off AD sync. The cutover migration continued to fail. The articles suggested that a Staged migration was a better option for this scenario. This failed with this error: Error: MigrationTransientException: Failed to update the on-premises mailbox with the target address (SMTP:email address removed for privacy reasons). The mail sent to the user will not reach user's hosted mailbox. The error might be due to account credentials used for migration not having enough permission to write data back into the on-premise AD. Please ensure that the account credential has Domain Admin privilege. --] We weren't able to connect to the remote server. Please verify that the migration endpoint settings are correct and your certificate is valid, and then try again. Consider using the Exchange Remote Connectivity Analyzer (https://testexchangeconnectivity.com) to diagnose the connectivity issues. I did some more reading and found an article that suggested that Staged migrations can only be used from Server 2003 and 2007. So I decided to try a Remote Migration. This one failed with the error: Error: TargetUserAlreadyHasPrimaryMailboxException: Target user '902b455c-5986-47c7-9988-bb7282df52b5' already has a primary mailbox. The articles about this suggest I need to delete the data in homeMDB and homeMTA. The data in homeMDB looks like a pretty important link between Exchange on prem and Active Directory. I'm not particularly comfortable with just deleting this. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? View the full article

I'm designing the config for some terminal servers running Server 2025.I want to pin specific icons to the start menu. In Server 2022 (or Windows 10), this was simply a process of setting up the reference machine how I wanted it, thenExport-StartLayout -Path "C:\Export\MStartMenuLayout.xml" to generate the config file, whcih was then applied using the GPO Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar\Start Layout - this worked fine.On Server 2025 (and Windows 11), however, it appears that this doesn't work the same any more. Although the export command works, View the full article

I need to create a 24 hour service that starts at 6 am, and ends at 6 am 24 hours later - that is, a service that extends over the turn of the day, and starts at a specified time every day. I have played around with every setting I could find, including staff's work hours, but nothing seems to work. Is this at all possible? If not, what could be the best workaround?

I am posting here because I have not received a response to my support request despite my plan stating that I should hear back within 8 hours. It has now gone a day beyond that limit, and I am still waiting for assistance with this urgent matter. This issue is critical for my operations, and the delay is unacceptable. The ticket/reference number for my original support request was 2410100040000309. And I have created a brand new service request with ID 2412160040010160. I need this addressed immediately.

AzureAD joined device via PPKG didn't enroll in Intune | Microsoft Community Hub → an old reference I seem to have the same problem. So before the tipp comes up. Yes I configured the MDM scope. The User I created the token in the wcd with is in there. The most funny thing is, It worked before up untill end of november, everything went fine. I had to do some scripting around the bulk joining but those problems are solved. So all of a sudden I stopped working. No the tokkens I used are still valid, and I created new ones. For several departments I do multiple ppkg in different subfolders. I let them run through powershell. So no errors, when dthe device restarts, no Intunejoin but why? In the errorlogs (if I looked in the correct one) there are errors with no substance, like unknown error 0x00... Any leads? Was there an update in any form on MS side? anything? Just to be sure I made the mdm scope all, as you can see in the screenshot. So 2 days no progress now I'm here. View the full article

The team has been hard at work innovating and improving Viva Learning. As we approach the end of 2024, below is a roundup of recently released features and look ahead to 2025. A couple highlights you might have seen: We recently released the much anticipated completion record bulk export functionality Earlier this year we made it possible for Microsoft 365 Copilot license holders to access Microsoft Copilot Academy. However, there are a few features the team has recently completed you may have missed, as well as upcoming features right around the corner you likely haven’t heard about yet! Admin self-serve improvements for SAP SuccessFactors (generally available now) Integrating SAP SuccessFactors with Viva Learning is easier than ever with the new streamlined configuration process. This self-serve process takes place entirely in the Viva Learning admin tab, rather than splitting operations between Viva Learning and SAP surfaces. Many of the configuration steps have been automated, leading to a decrease in manual-entry errors, less reliance on help desk intervention, and quicker setup times. Add external content links to Viva Learning tabs and featured sets (generally available now) External content from providers like YouTube, Vimeo, and Stream can now be included in two new areas within Viva Learning – featured sets and learning tabs. This functionality requires a Viva Learning premium or Viva suite license to access. Featured sets are curated sets of courses that an organization can choose to display prominently to the entire organization. Featured sets previously leveraged content solely from SharePoint, connected learning management systems (LMS), and third-party providers. Admins can now include external URLs as part of these sets. Learning tabs allow users to find, curate, and share content in Teams channels or chats. The content available for learning tabs can include any content available to the organization, and now includes the option to insert links to external content providers. Adding content to learning tabs now features an option to add linked content, shown in the box on the right side below “add content to your tab” New sort options in Viva Learning search (generally available now) Viva Learning search functionality continues to improve, providing learners with relevant results and sorting options to expedite content discovery. The latest improvement is the newly launched dropdown menu. Now, users can sort search results in Viva Learning by relevance, number of views, or ratings. These sorting options require a Viva Learning premium or Viva Suite license to access. A dropdown menu displayed at the top right of a search result in Viva Learning now shows the following sorting options for Premium Viva Learning or Viva Suite customers: relevance, highest rating, most viewed. App bar integration (generally available now) The Viva Learning webapp saw navigation improvements through the implementation of the Viva app bar that takes users directly to various Viva modules based on their license. This simplifies access to other Viva modules and provides a consistent navigation experience. The Viva app bar is shown in the webapp along the lefthand side of the image. This helps users quickly navigate to other Viva modules they use. More features coming soon The following features are scheduled to release in early 2025. Error framework messages: These descriptive, actionable messages help admins work through failures in the sync or setup process without needing to raise a support ticket from the Viva Learning support team. Descriptive error messages shown for a sample Workday integration. LMS sync logs: Logs featuring granular details of LMS data ingested in Viva Learning will help admin troubleshoot data-related issues like missing assignments or completion data. Admin experience for accessing logs in the “Manage providers” tab. User mapping: Admins will be able to add and edit the user mapping for LMS integrations directly from the admin experience in Viva Learning. This feature will be backward compatible for existing customers. User mapping can be done from the admin tab in Viva Learning. Image shown for Workday user mapping. On-demand sync: This feature will allow admins to manually trigger sync for a specific period. This gives admins more control to troubleshoot and resolve synchronization errors quickly. On demand sync feature in the admin tab of Viva Learning View the full article

Today, we are excited to announce that the Public Preview of the new Message Trace in the Exchange admin center (EAC) in Exchange Online will begin rolling out mid-December and is expected to be completed by the end of December 2024. Admins will soon be able to access the new Message Trace and its capabilities by default when navigating to the Exchange admin center > Mail flow > Message Trace. As illustrated in the image below, the new Message Trace will be toggled “on” by default once the change has been deployed to your tenant. If you wish to disable the preview, you can do so by toggling this setting to “off.” Key UI functionality changes Extended Query Range: You can now query up to 90 days of historical data for near real-time queries. However, please note that you can only query 10 days’ worth of data at a time. Please note that you will initially only have 30 days of historical data for near real-time query, and this will build over time to 90 days of historical data. Subject Filter: The subject filter for Message Trace queries is now available, supporting "starts with", "ends with", and "contains" functions. This filter also supports special characters. Delivery Status Filter: The delivery status filter will now support searches for "Quarantined", "Filtered as spam", and "Getting status" statuses. Additional UI updates based on feedback Customizable Columns: For your search results, we’ve introduced customizable columns and added additional column options that you can select from. Please refer to the image below for the new columns that have been added. Persistent Column Widths: You will be able to customize your column-widths, and these changes will be sticky per logged-on admin account, so they will not have to be reset every time you run a new message trace query. Wider Flyout Option: An option for a wider flyout for the Message Trace detail is now available. Time Zone Consistency: Message Trace will now default to the time zone set in the Exchange account settings of the logged-on admin. Key cmdlet changes from Get-MessageTrace Extended Query Range: Ability to query up to 90 days of historical data. However, please note that you will only be able to query 10 days’ worth of data per query. Please note that you will initially only have 30 days of historical data for near real-time query, and this will build over time to 90 days of historical data. Subject Parameter: The addition of a subject parameter allowing for more specific Message Trace queries. No Page number or Page size parameter: There will not be pagination support in the new Message Trace cmdlet. Result size parameter: The new Message Trace will support a default value of 1000 results and a maximum of 5000 results (set via the -ResultSize parameter), which is a significant increase. This change is to ensure fair use of our resources, as pagination can create performance issues for our system. StartingRecipientAddress parameter: This parameter’s main use is to assist in pulling subsequent data while minimizing duplication. Since pagination will no longer be supported, you can utilize the EndTime parameter with the EndTime of the last record of the query results and fill in the StartingRecipientAddresss parameter with RecipientAddress of the last record of the previous result. See the example below for more details. Example of differences between V1 and V2: For the sample data above, you can pull the first 10 records by either query: Old Message Trace: Get-MessageTrace -StartTime '2024-11-01T00:00:00Z' -EndTime '2024-11-01T00:10:00Z' -Page 1 -PageSize 10 New Message Trace: Get-MessageTraceV2 -StartTime '2024-11-01T00:00:00Z' -EndTime '2024-11-0100:10:002' - ResultSize 10 To pull the next subsequent records, you could use either of the following queries. In the V2 example below, we are using the StartingRecipientAddress of last recipient (r_1_010@contoso) from the previous results. Old Message Trace: Get-MessageTrace -StartTime '2024-11-01T00:00:00Z' -EndTime '2024-11-01T00:10:00Z' -Page 2 -PageSize 10 New Message Trace: Get-MessageTracev2 -StartTime '2024-11-01T00:00:00Z' -EndTime '2024-11-01T00:10:00Z' -ResultSize 10 -StartingRecipientAddress r_1_010@contoso.com Known differences and on-going updates Message trace V1 normalizes all recipients to lowercase, while V2 keeps them the same as in Message Tracking Logs. When displaying the results, V2 will order by ReceivedTime in descending order first, then RecipientAddress in ascending order(case-insensitive). In some rare cases, FromIp may be missing in V2, but we are working to fix this issue. For messages with over 1000 recipients, admins must include the MessageTraceId in both the EAC and PowerShell cmdlet queries to avoid partial results. For quarantine scenarios, V2 will display the latest status while V1 displayed the original status. So if the email is quarantined initially and then released by the administrator later, Message Trace v2 will show the latest status which is delivered to Mailbox.

Hello, I have a question regarding in-scope SKUs of the new pricing update that takes effect 4/1/2025 for monthly billing/annual term subscriptions. (Specifically, Dynamics 365 SKUs in the CSP NCE pricelist) In the announcements and FAQs, in some parts the term "user license" is used, and in others it seems to apply to all SKUs with an annual term/monthly billing option. Would you be able to tell me if the 5% increase applies to the former or latter? Thank you in advance. View the full article

Hello. Maybe you can help me, to find something out. First how the problem started: We registered for non-profit in november this year and got checked from techsoup, which was no problem. We transfered all mailboxes and used 6 licences. But one notebook was not able to login. So I opened a ticket with the problem. I got some mails with "we are working on it" etc... and the last mail was "your service was cancelled with enddate of actual period". No chance to get a reason why (only because of a result of internal processes). Login was not possible anymore. So I started to transfer again. This time to G.... No problem Meanwhile last week I got a "tell us uf your experience" from Microsoft and gave 1 star was a bad comment. Today I got an newsletter, clicked on it and could login to non profit?? Where can I see, it my non-profit is now cancelled or not? I can't find any enddate.. View the full article

I see some strange behavior and can't explain why it is not working. I am playing around with the MSIX package and shortcut icons. I created them using the Visual Asset generator (https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9mz6qrqtdkf2?hl=en-US&gl=US) and copied them to the Assets folder. When configuring the shortcuts with the files, the shortcuts and package logo stays blank. When I open the manifest and point the entries hardcoded to the files the icons appear. Like this config below. <Application Id="PSFLAUNCHERTwo" Executable="PsfLauncher2.exe" EntryPoint="Windows.FullTrustApplication"> <uap3:VisualElements AppListEntry="default" BackgroundColor="transparent" Description="Fair Prod" DisplayName="Fair Prod" Square150x150Logo="Assets\Edge-Square150x150Logo.scale-400.png" Square44x44Logo="Assets\Edge-Square44x44Logo.scale-400.png" VisualGroup="FCA"></uap3:VisualElements> </Application> But when removing the ".scale-400" part of the files, the icons would not appear.

Not all data is numerical. There are important insights to be found through surveys, reviews, and other textual data. However, it can be time-consuming and difficult to comb through text to uncover those insights. We’re changing that with a new suite of text analysis capabilities that make Excel a one-stop shop for analyzing your text data, whether you want quick and easy insights or deep analysis. Combined with Excel’s power for numerical analysis and data visualization, you’ll be able to get actionable insights from text like never before. Here are three new features that you can use to analyze your text data. Copilot in Excel Copilot can help you analyze a column of text data with ease. You can do all of the following simply by typing a prompt. 1. Get a high-level summary of the text including themes Within a few minutes, Copilot can scan your text data and return a summary of the text and a list of themes. You can ask for a specific length, tone, or focus area in your prompt. Copilot response showing feedback topics 2. Run sentiment analysis (coming soon) Copilot can identify sentiments in your text data, summarizing insights for each sentiment. Copilot response with sentiment analysis 3.

Given the widespread use of guest accounts within Microsoft 365 to allow external sharing of resources, it’s almost inevitable that some unused guest accounts exist in any Microsoft 365 tenant. Identifying unused guest accounts is a good management practice. If the accounts serve no purpose, why keep them? This article explores how to find unused guest accounts. What you do with them later is up to you. https://practical365.com/find-unused-guest-accounts/ View the full article
