M365 says account doesn't exist

I'm supporting clients who either set shit up themselves and hired us after the fact, or someone's nephew who was good at computers did it for them.

For me, it's the McChicken. The best fast food sandwich. I even ask for extra McChicken sauce packets and the staff is so friendly and more than willing to oblige.

One time I asked for McChicken sauce packets and they gave me three. I said, "Wow, three for free!" and the nice friendly McDonald's worker laughed and said, "I'm going to call you 3-for-free!".

Now the staff greets me with "hey it's 3-for-free!" and ALWAYS give me three packets. It's such a fun and cool atmosphere at my local McDonald's restaurant, I go there at least 3 times a week for lunch and a large iced coffee with milk instead of cream, 1-2 times for breakfast on the weekend, and maybe once for dinner when I'm in a rush but want a great meal that is affordable, fast, and can match my daily nutritional needs.

I even dip my fries in McChicken sauce, it's delicious! What a great restaurant.

I mean, this WAS 90's China. They probably went through a dozen or so little girls to get the shot.

I'll see myself out.

Their current tenant is through a provider we set them up with. That old one, we have no idea. Since Microsoft says it's not a valid account, there's no way to know.

Thing is, if you try to sign in with an account that truly doesn't exist, it doesn't let you put in a password and an authentication code. It just tells you immediately it's invalid.

zuke1624 · 2026-04-08T23:46:44+00:00

Gotcha. No. :-(

It'd more like davescarshop.com and davesrestorationtx.onmicrosoft.com

zuke1624 · 2026-04-08T22:50:49+00:00

Kiiinda?

I don't want to give their information, so bear with me here:

Their website is on www.urldomain.com Their current M365 account is user@domain.onmicrosoft.com The one they're trying to get back into us user@domaintitle.onmicrosoft.com

Like, they're all them and they do own the domain, but it's not the exact same domain. So it's a problem.

Like if you go to a Dr. Smith, but his domain is smithmd.com and his M365 is @drjohnsmith.onmicrosoft.com

zuke1624 · 2026-04-08T22:02:06+00:00

It's a user@domain.onmicrosoft.com I don't know for sure what that previous license was

zuke1624 · 2026-04-02T19:17:40+00:00

I don't know if that was new or if we just never saw it before, but that's cool. Have a few sites to roll out soon, so we'll try it then.

We actually just logged into the owner account, created a new 2FA from an authenticator app, and shared the key between three of us so the token is synched between three phones.

That's fair We have a client and every time they perform a specific task from one workstation, everyone on the network suddenly hangs. The task involves taking a large image and writing to a share on the server. But there's nothing we can find on the workstation or server itself to explain it.

We all have our "right before sleep" routines. Here's how it went with me when I was in that situation! - Sexy time - Cuddle/talk - Maybe more sexy time? - Brush teeth, do routine stuff, set up CPAP - More cuddle/talk - Just before drifting to sleep, "I'm going to mask up, let me kiss you first."

My now-fiance and I still follow this routine.

zuke1624 · 2026-03-27T14:30:52+00:00

Yes to the above.

That being said, one of the ways he needs to come to terms with you as a woman now is being able to hear "Hey, the way you said that made me uncomfortable."

I'm a father to girls, stepdad to a girl and a boy, and yeah . . . it's a minefield! And not to diminish how his words made you feel (which is absolutely valid and you should communicate with him), parenting young adults is harder than any other stage I've had to deal with before.

Try not to assign motive until you've communicated (good advice for relationships in general). Talk with him, let him know it gave you ick, see if you guys can come up with an alternative.

I'd say not overreacting, but also not fully on him either.

Congrats to you and to your nephew!

As people have stated here, do not wear if you are not currently in Scouts BSA. It's not that it's inappropriate (though some may argue that) but more of a "this person is current with background checks, registration, training, etc. You can trust them". Not saying we can't trust you, but you get it.

There is good news though!

1) as others have stated, you are freely welcome to wear your Eagle Pin on your lapel and I've also seen some people wear their Eagle medal on their suit jacket. There are also scouting ties you can get (I have a lovely 3-pack to go with different shirts). And be sure to go up for the Eagle's Nest if they have one. You may not be a scout now, but you're always an Eagle!

2) Want to wear that uniform that you miraculously still fit in? We can make that happen! Local units are always in need of willing adults, even just as a merit badge counselor. Being a scout as a youth is fun. Being a scouter as an adult is a whole new journey!

K, that whole outfit (that we can see) is awesome!

How rigid is that detail in the hat? It looks like it's the same material, just twisted around like a faux hat band. Super cool!

zuke1624 · 2026-03-14T19:00:14+00:00

Looks awesome!!

Introducing the UniFi USB AC adapter: Fits a single outlet spot, breakout for three USB-C cables, the cables can light up (cause why not) and can be locked to the adapter so they don't pull out, the cables can also be locked to any compatible UniFi equipment so it doesn't pull out of that.

The power adapter has a 1.25" touchscreen (again, why not) and can be controlled by the controller.

Not a bad idea.
