I have a Mac Mini. Or MiniMac, or whatever it's called. I bought Office 365 University; the envelope reads "2 PCs or Macs" so I know I have an acceptable one ... and that's not the problem, at least not at the moment.
I attempted to instal it. This involved entering a 25-character Product Code, after which you go to a window that wants you to get into your email.
And I couldn't. I attempted repeatedly to get into my college email and it kept telling me that my password was wrong. I then went to the college website, clicked on "Student Email" and ... got in, no problem.
I had a chat with a Microsoft customer service rep, who was nice enough, but couldn't seem to do anything other than give me the standard cookie-cutter response for people who are completely locked out of their email, which was not my problem.
Anybody got any suggestions?
P.S. I should add that when I tried to reset my password, Microsoft started asking for security info that was, from the sounds of it, connected to a long-ago and long-forgotten previous account but which has NOTHING to do with my college email account. You will likely not be surprised to know that I couldn't remember any of it.
