Meeting Videos in Microsoft Teams

Collin Wynne -- Wed, 08/05/2020 - 7:58am

We get a lot of questions about the meeting videos which are recorded in Microsoft Teams and how to let others access it. Currently, Faculy & Staff can upload via Microsoft Stream videos and students cannot. We want to have some form of control of what is uploaded to Microsoft Stream (The video service which stores the Teams Videos). People in the meeting should be able to view the video from the "Chat" which is created via the Team Meeting.

Collin Wynne -- Thu, 02/20/2020 - 12:54pm

Some of our Faculty, Staff & Students who use Macs download and run Microsoft Office 365 just like the Windows PCs. Some users are experiencing errors with their documents which causes them to be marked as read only. We have some options here to try so you may be able to fix it. If not please bring it to the IT Service Desk and we can see if we can help you.

Using Microsoft To-Do to Manage your To-Do lists

Collin Wynne -- Mon, 11/11/2019 - 10:13am

In Outlook for the Web or the Outlook Client you have the option of Flagging an email. We mostly use that for reminding us that this email is something we need to follow up on. Making a To-Do list is also a great to tool for getting through your day. Microsoft To-Do combines both.

You can go to Microsoft To-Do via a browser: https://todo.microsoft.com/

I just received an ICS file. How do I use it to add an event to my calendar when using Outlook for the Web?

Collin Wynne -- Fri, 11/01/2019 - 7:26am

In order to use an ICS file to add an event to your calendar when using Outlook for the Web you
must first save the ICS file to your computer's disk drive. (Normally clicking on the
ICS file from an email or attachment will cause a new window to appear with the
option to save the file to the local disk or open the file with a program on your computer.
Choose to save the file to your local disk and remember the location where it is stored.)
