I have an ipad where Excel is installed and is connected through an Office 365 Essentials user.<br />
<br />
The app works fine, but each time we try to save a file to the ipad or onedrive, I get a message I need to have an account to do this. On the error box I can click on More information and that takes me again tot the login box for Office 365. When I try to login again, it gives me the error the user is unknown.<br />
<br />
Can I use the Office 365 apps on my ipad with an essentials account or do I need a premium? When I login tot portal.office 365 they made it look like I can.
