Specifically, after successfully responding to the Duo prompt, the pop-up window will remain blank except for a spinning icon and never finish adding the account to the application. This issue has been resolved by having users connect to the UO VPN when initially setting up their account with Mac Mail. After logging in successfully once while connected to the VPN, any removing or re-adding of rebuild Outlook data file quickly the account again to Mac Mail should not need the VPN. In many cases, simply removing the account from the application and re-adding the account using the standard Sign In method will resolve any issues being experienced when Modern Authentication is first turned on for an account.

Please report suspicious activity using the "Report Abuse" option. We recommend using Outlook on the web to check your email or consider configuring a supported email client. I have also followed the troubleshooter in outlook where a MS tech gives you suggestions ( very slowly ). They suggested clearing credentials, which I have already rebuild Outlook data file quickly tried. Outlook is working on my phone, and I can access everything via the office.com web site.

Outlook 2013 supports MA but requires a registry entry as already mentioned. App password is not needed so long as you’re using a modem version of Outlook. To resolve this issue, set up AD FS to use forms-based authentication as the secondary form of authentication. To do this, follow the appropriate steps for the version that you use.
