Hello all,

I downloaded Microsoft To Do on a new device (Macbook Pro) and I cannot find the option to log in. It's not in the top left or right corner (the profile picture on the top left leads to one option-- preferences-- which does nothing when I select it; and the three dots on the right leads to options to change theme, print list, group by, or show completed tasks. Could anyone advise me on how to log in so I can sync my tasks across devices?

Thank you!
