How to Add New Accounts to New Outlook

When you launch the New Outlook for the first time, it will ask you to type in your email address. If you are launching from the classic Outlook, it might remember some of your accounts you had setup before you switched over. If they don’t automatically set up, then you have to log in to each one again and this will require the passwords and 2-step authentication/Multi-factor Authentication. If you don’t have security set up, then be prepared to do this at that time.

Few things to keep in mind, if you have many email accounts such as comcast.net, iCloud and Gmail, you might have some issues if you have used these email addresses with other types of accounts.

Example: If your iCloud account has a Gmail address, iCloud will not set up in the New Outlook. If your iCloud is setup with a comcast.net email, it will not set up the iCloud. I can count numerous ways you might have issues but if you do, I can help figure it out for you. Use the form below to schedule time.

Once you have one account added, then you can add new accounts by going to the bottom of the folder pane and click on “Add account” and the same pop up box will show up.

You can also add accounts by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the New Outlook. In the left hand side of that box, you will see “accounts” and under “email accounts” you can see all of the accounts in your New Outlook and also add more there. Or remove accounts.

I hope this helps you, again if you need help, use the form below to contact me.
