    I have Microsoft office on my computer, and when I try to log into my UNCC account to use Word or Powerpoint, it tells me you can view documents, but it does not allow editing on a Mac. I went to the website to download Microsoft directly from the university and an error still pops up

    Hi Maegan, I'll have someone from the Service Desk reach out to you. When they call, let them know what the error message is that you are receiving.
