Teams Won't Let Me Into My Own Meeting

Hi,

I schedule a meeting through Outlook on my Mac, however when I then go to join that meeting it won't let me in. I get the message 'Someone in the meeting should let you in soon' and I can't join.

I have two accounts on Outlook, my 'onmicrosoft.com' account where my Office 365 Business Premium account is registered and my work email. I want to be able to use my own Office 365 Business Premium account to create Teams Meetings and send them through my work email address. Hence, I am creating the Teams Meetings in my work email calendar so that they come from my work email address to my clients.

In the Teams application I logged in using my 'onmicrosoft.com' email as I cannot log in through my work email as I have no access and no means of gaining access (I am an contractor using the client firms email server). 

Can you help?

    Hi there, coming to this chat late... BUT after a year since this was raised here and probably has been about 1m times, as of August 2021... Where is the fix!!! this is not a liner world!!! Setting up a meeting and not being able to get in from the same machine and account is a business basic. I think I'll go back to two soup cans and a long piece of string. :-(

    I have the same issue. Mine is a work account, we switched to outlook about a year ago. For several months, no problem. All of the sudden in the last month when I set up meetings, Teams doesn't recognize me as the owner and I can't start the meeting. I've tried everything I've read in the chats all over google and found no solve so far. Has Microsoft figured this problem out and I've missed it? It's soooooooo frustrating!!! Please help.
