Get exclusive access to new features and help shape the future of Office. Microsoft stated that this would need to be done everytime the OneDrive for Business process is started. In October, the Redmond-based company released a revamp to its Outlook for Mac. Right now the beta doesn’t require a subscription. It’s a pricing model that Microsoft has used for Office for iPad.

The official word from Microsoft came in a thread of the Office365 community forum Opening the Microsoft Upload Centre Preferences and clicking “Delete Files” to empty the Office Document Cache apparently solved the problem for some, but not for me. Pressing “Yes” opens “Microsoft Upload Centre” - not very informative. Every time you start your computer, or restart OneDrive for Business (Beta), an alert is displayed: However, there appears to be a problem if you have both Office for Mac 2016 Preview and OneDrive for Business (Beta) installed. Sometimes, as in the case of OneDrive for Business, the need to use it is so great that we have to offer to deploy the Beta version. As a Mac SysAdmin in a dominantly Microsoft leaning organisation, I’m led to test new MS offerings with a view to rolling them out to Mac users once they reach their production stage.
