A contact list is a collection of email addresses and is useful for sending email to a group of people.
Contact Groups have moved in M365.
If it looks like the option to create Contact Groups is missing in Outlook, the greyed out optin is actually a new (misleading) feature in M365 that creates a SharePoint site (not what most users would want).
Users can still create the usual Contact Groups they are familiar with b going to Contact --> New Contact Group

A recent Outlook for Mac update may have changed the appearance of your Outlook screen, making it appear that your email and calendar appointments have been removed. Not to worry, your emails and appointments are safe, but it can be disconcerting to see a blank Outlook screen.
You will need to revert your Outlook application to the previous version for your content to reappear. You may be offered an option to revert via a popup menu, like this:
If you do not receive this prompt, you can always toggle OFF the New Outlook view by going to the Outlook dropdown at the top of the screen and deselecting New Outlook.
At the next prompt, select Revert.
You may be prompted to log in again. Your content should now reappear.
If you enter an incorrect password for your my萝莉社 account too many times the system will automatically lock down your account. This is a security measure to prevent unauthorized users from accessing my萝莉社 accounts. A message will appear indicating the account is locked.
- The current policy is: if there are 10 attempts within 10 minutes, the account will lock for 15 minutes.
Reminder:
- When changing your password, change it across ALL devices that you have logged into (iPad, mobile phone, laptop(s), desktop(s), and 萝莉社 Secure); otherwise, you run the risk of being locked out of your account. For example, when a password is changed at work, and you are also signed into your work email on a personal device at home it will attempt to sync to the mailbox on the personal device causing too many failed attempts, and locking the account.
- To help mitigate the situation, clear out devices that you are not using. To do this:
- Log into Office365 at o365.wichita.edu
- Open Outlook
- Go to the Gear Icon, Select Options
-
- Under Options, Select General > Mobile Devices
- Remove any devices no longer being used
This will reduce issues with syncing that contribute to failed attempts.
A browser maintains a history of all websites accessed. Sometimes clearing the cache or browser history will allow the browser to work more efficiently. It may even help resolve problems with websites.
It is recommended that ALL users clear their cache and browsing history at least once a week. More often as issues occur or if you are accessing the internet often.

If you change your password while off-campus, you won't be able to log-in to your university-owned computer with your new password until you connect to the campus network, either by plugging into the wired network, using 萝莉社 Secure wifi, or the university VPN using the GlobalProtect VPN. You may still use your old My萝莉社 password to log into the machine until it has been updated with the new My萝莉社 password. Click the link below for information on how to change your password over VPN.
