Onedrive For El Capitan


  1. Office 2011 has very poor OneDrive and OneDrive for business integration, which is a no no for me. However I can expect the performance will be great under El Capitan as long as it is compatible.
  2. Despite their reputation for quality, even Mac apps can lock up or freeze from time to time. If you find yourself facing a frozen or unresponsive app, don't give up and reboot your Mac. Instead, first try these five methods to force a misbehaving app to quit.
  3. MacRumors attracts a broad audience of both consumers and professionals interested in the latest technologies and products. We also boast an active community focused on purchasing decisions and technical aspects of the iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Mac platforms.

Download OneDrive for macOS 10.12 or later and enjoy it on your Mac. ‎Start with 5 GB of free cloud storage or upgrade to a Microsoft 365 subscription to get 1 TB of storage. Microsoft 365 includes premium Office apps, 1 TB cloud storage in OneDrive, advanced security, and more, all in one convenient subscription. This looks like another major issue on OneDrive for Microsoft. I haven't really been able to use OneDrive since I updated to Windows 10 Pro from Windows 8.1.1 Pro. To me the Windows 10 version of OneDrive is retrograde and useless. They need to bring back some of the features that were in the 8.1.1 version to make it useable. Regards Infinidim.
