Common Issues

Your student account is powered by Microsoft. Below are some common issues you may encounter in the next steps.

If you see the following error...

User account 'xxxx@gmail.com' from identity provider 'live.com' does not exist in tenant

This means you are already signed in to the browser with a different Microsoft account. Try an option below:

  • Sign out of the Microsoft account. You should be able to do this at Office.com or Live.com
  • Or... Use a different browser. Firefox is good in this situation.

We do not have access to the security information associated with your student account. So even if you have updated your phone number with the college, it may still show an old number. You can update your security information at https://mysignins.microsoft.com/security-info
