Friends.

Can anyone tell me when to use the Outlook in Microsoft 365 and when to use the new Outlook desktop app.

I have both installed on my computers - which I suppose is unnecessary. But I don't understand the difference?

Appreciate if someone can explain this!

Outlook | Windows | New Outlook for Windows | For business

    I just downloaded Microsoft 365 and am already thinking I should not have??!! One of the reasons I purchased was hope that my contacts, emails,and calendars in PC, iPhone and iPad would synchronize. Now I discover that the Outlook I just purchased with Microsoft 365 is different that what I already have on my devices?? Contacts are really the things that have not been synchronizing well.

    Should I cancel my subscription?

    I'm only moderately competent with computers and don't follow half of what people have offered about Outlook!

    Please Please Please MS be clear with your product offerings, you are confusing people. I was looking to purchase a subscription to the new outlook desktop this one

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/outlook/outlook-for-windows

    at the bottom of that page is the link to download the windows version. I am reading that 365 is different than the new outlook for windows. So please please provide a link to purchase a subscription to the new outlook for windows. All i see is 365 links and i dont want 365. Is there a paid version of the new outlook for windows (desktop)?

    Thanks dave.

    Login to your Yahoo! account on a browser. Go to Account, Overview, Security, scroll down to Account Access, then other ways to sign in.

    For any non-Yahoo! app, Yahoo! generates the password for you. So generate a password for Outlook. Then you only use that password in Outlook.

    I guess this would be a bad time to remind everyone about Outlook Express, huh? 🤣
