Office 365 can be installed on up to five devices. You can install Office 365 across most devices, as licenses are not tethered to the first platform a user activates. Please note that devices that have Office 365 installed on them must connect to the internet at least once every 30 days or the software will enter reduced functionality (i.e. read-only) mode.
If your account is being used to send spam, a typical result of a third party compromising your account/password, the following actions will occur:
- Microsoft’s automated system will lock your account so it can no longer send email. In some cases, this lock will prevent you from logging into Office 365 entirely.
- At a later time, typically within two business days, your password will be reset to a random value, and sending email will be re-enabled.
If this happens, you will need to:
- Reset your password using your recovery options. Please read the answer to “I forgot my password, how do I reset it?”
- Reset your password on any other systems using the same password, and never use this compromised password again.
