Office 365: Your questions answered

Posted by Information Technology Services on June 27, 2013 in General Announcements

Thanks to all who came out to our Office 365 kickoff session last Friday at the University Club. It was great to chat and talk about the service and its features. Here are a few of the questions that came up:

I have a Meeting Maker account and understand my email access will be activated in Office 365 between July 15th and July 31st. Does this mean my appointments in Meeting Maker will appear in the Office 365 calendar at the same time?

No, the migration of email is a separate process from the Meeting Maker calendar migration. While users of Meeting Maker will have their email messages migrated during mid to late July, the Meeting Maker calendar migration is planned for mid-August. At that time all future meetings (and a 30 day history) will be transferred to the Office 365 calendar.

Watch for separate communications regarding the Meeting Maker calendar in the coming weeks.

I have entered contacts into Meeting Maker. Do I need to do anything to transfer them to Office 365?

Yes, in order to access these contacts in the Office 365 system, please export the contacts. This must be completed before the migration in mid-August (do this as soon as possible!). After the migration you can import the contacts into Office 365. The instructions to do so depend upon the email client installed on your computer, .

What if I have more questions about Office 365?
