Microsoft 365

Remote Microsoft 365 support for Bairnsdale & East Gippsland

Microsoft 365 does a lot, which is exactly why it can be confusing. Outlook, OneDrive, Teams, Word and Excel all rely on the same account, so one small setting can affect everything. I help homes and small businesses get Microsoft 365 working the way it should, remotely and in plain English.

Available 7 days by appointment. Windows and macOS. $89 per hour.

Common Microsoft 365 problems

  • Outlook keeps asking for your password or won't open
  • OneDrive shows sync errors or files seem to be missing
  • You can't sign in, or you have two Microsoft accounts and don't know which is which
  • Office apps say they're unlicensed or need activating
  • Colleagues can't open files you've shared with them
  • A new computer needs Microsoft 365 installed and set up

What I can help with

  • Microsoft account and sign in issues
  • Outlook setup, profiles and mailbox problems
  • OneDrive setup and file syncing
  • Installing and activating Microsoft 365 apps

  • General Microsoft 365 troubleshooting

Personal and business accounts

A surprising number of Microsoft 365 problems come from having a personal Microsoft account and a work or school account on the same computer. I'll work out which account owns what, tidy up the sign ins and make sure your apps, email and files all point to the right place.

For small businesses using Microsoft 365

If your business runs on Microsoft 365, I can help with the routine jobs that keep it working: adding and removing users, setting up shared mailboxes, organising shared files and making sure permissions make sense. Grimace Remote is an independent business and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Microsoft.

What can't be done remotely

Remote support covers a lot, but not everything. If your request falls into one of these areas, I'll say so before we start rather than after.

  • Recovering accounts that Microsoft itself has locked or suspended
  • Changes that need a global administrator you can't provide access to
  • Licensing purchases, which are made directly through Microsoft or your reseller

Yes. I can install the apps, sign you in, set up Outlook and OneDrive, and make sure files and email sync correctly on your computer.

Can you help with Outlook problems remotely?

Yes. Password prompts, missing emails, profile errors, search problems and sending issues can usually be worked through over a remote session.

No. Grimace Remote is an independent remote computer assistance business. I help people use and troubleshoot Microsoft 365, but I'm not affiliated with Microsoft.
