Issues with changing user id

Question

Posted by Alan Joseph on the Apps for Office and SharePoint blog

Help, I am a Sharepoint Online user beta testing Office 365 and Office 2013.  Unfortunately, I've been forced to create several different user id's.

1 for Live

1 for Sharepoint Online

1 for Office 2013 Beta/Office 365

When I try to add the Bing Map App (which is all I want to see), I am told I have already downloaded the app.  When I try to insert it I get an invalid ID.  I wish single sign on were more than just a name.  This is a mess and no combination seems to solve my problem.  All I want is an excel web application that allows me to map data and show it to people. 

Answer 1

Hi Alan,

Thanks for letting us know about your issue. Can you provide more information: Which id did you use to download the app? Which id did you use to when you tried to insert it?

Thanks,

Hila

Answer 3

Hi Tx_OfficeDev, I'm still waiting to get more information to be able to resolve the issue. Have you also encountered issues when using different id's?

Answer 4

Hi Hila,

I haven't use Office 2013. I think use Office 2013 RTM will make more sense. So I decide waiting for it. And I think it will help me understand Office 2013 more deeply if I collection information for it now.

P.S. I'm wondering whether Office 2013 PIA has been published?

Answer 6

T.X. I assume you mean the Office 2013 PIA redistributable. In this case, those will be available shortly after RTM.
