Hi,

I have a situation where I am deploying Windows 8.1 to desktops connected to a 2008 R2 domain

Scenario:

* Each client PC is running Windows 8.1

* Each client PC signs on to internal domain controller (user@domain.tld)

* Each user account has an office 365 sign on which is syncronised with active directory (Microsoft organisational account)

It would now appear that each user requires a microsoft / live account to benefit from apps, windows store etc..

Does anyone know of a procedure where the organisational account for office 365 can be used for this (which i dont think is possible) or perhaps any way of bulk registering my office 365 users for a microsoft/live account and syncronise the passwords.

Anyone come across this issue before?

**Mods, if i have put this in the wrong category, please feel free to move it**

Thanks,

Hi,

For this issue,we need to understand Office 365 user ID and Microsoft account.

Your Office 365 user ID is different from your Microsoft account.

Regarding Office 365 user ID,I suggest that you refer to the following article:

Also,you can connect your Microsoft account to your domain account:

Regarding Office 365 deployment,please submit the issue to Microsoft office 365 community for help.
