Office 365

How to Open OneDrive Documents from Desktop Applications

OneDrive files can be accessed directly from the Open and Save menus in all the desktop Office 2016 applications, even if there is not a local OneDrive sync folder.
In the application:

• Click File > Open
• Choose Add a Place > Choose’ Office 365 SharePoint’

Note: if it’s available, do not choose ‘OneDrive’ here; this refers to the consumer OneDrive product and not the OneDrive for Business product.

• You will be prompted to log in. Enter your Reinhardt email address and password.
• Once authenticated, you should see the ‘OneDrive- Reinhardt University’ location added to the list of places.
• This location will now appear in the File |Open and File |Save menus automatically. This makes it extremely easy to create documents and store them directly on OneDrive for Business.
• Click ‘Browse’ to view the OneDrive files store.
