I recently went on vacation and accessed Teams from my tablet for the first time by installing the Teams app. Now I am back at work and using my work laptop. Even though I have signed out of the Teams app on my tablet and removed my work account from all Microsoft apps on my tablet, my Teams status is still stuck as "Out of Office." How can I change it to "Available?" Things I have tried: (tablet) Changing status to "Available" on the tablet app (tablet) Signing out of the tablet app (tablet) Removing my work accounts from my tablet completely (laptop) Signing in and out of the Teams app (laptop) clicking on my profile pic and changing the status to "Available" or any other status. (There is no change at all) (laptop) typing in the command to change my status to available (no change at all) (browser) Accessing Teams through Chrome on my laptop and doing 5 and 6 (no effect) Note that my Skype and Outlook status is correctly set to "Available." I'm at a complete loss and would really like help with this.

I am having a similar issue, where no matter what I do to try and reset my Out of Office Status, it stays stuck in Out of Office. I have tried: Using 'Reset Status' Clicking Available Deleting the 'Out of the office' This hasn't worked for me in either Mobile or Desktop Apps. How you solved it?

I waited several hours for it to fix itself.. How long have you been waiting? I have seen it take 1/2 a day..

Resolved Automatically :P Yep, that's the thing with this. You can bang your head against the wall and try everything available to resolve it, but ultimately, you just have to wait... Now, if we had one go more than a day, we would likely open a ticket with support. But we have seen all of ours resolve in a 1/2 to one day. If it were coming up on a weekend, we would wait for Monday morning to open the ticket. Most likely it will be resolved by then anyways.
