In this short seven step guide, we'll take you through the process of adding your Office 365 (Powerpoint, Excel, Word, One Note) details to the Infinity:One. 

This guide is suited for one-to-one device distributions, by ensuring students remain logged in to their Infinity:One and their work remaining on the device and syncing to the internet - allowing children to go home and pick up where they left-off at school.

NOTE: It is really important to note that once a user adds Office 365 credentials, the user will remain logged in - until he/she logs out from within any Office 365 application. 

This will also take up 1 of the students 5 active devices the student can use Office 365 on. You can always remove a device manually by following these instructions.

For this guide - we will log into OneNote, an awesome tool to capture all student work. 

You have two pathways to sign-in

The first is when you open the application (a brand new Infinity:One or fresh install) and you are requested to sign-in before entering the application. The second is when you are already in the application.

STEP 4: If your log in credentials are correct you be logged into One Note. If you can't get past this point contact your School Administrator to see if their is an issue with your login.
