Permissions for MS Office 365

I have recently had my computer serviced ( full wipe of Hard disk + reinstall). Having reinstalled Office 365 but it won't let me save any documents (Word, Excel) to the icloud saying that I don't have permissions.


How do I get permissions to do this?

The Microsoft user forums like these are much easier to navigate than their Windows-centric help system. MS Office questions posted in Apple’s forums tend to linger a long time before getting any kind of effective response.


The only party trick for the MS forums is limiting views to Mac issues, and that’s easy.


Start here: 


Results in Office - Microsoft Community.


That will display this page header:



1) If needed, use the “Office Topic” pull-down to select your Office app.


2) Limit answers to Mac topics with the “Office Sub-topic” pull-down.


3) If needed, use the “Show Filters” option to further narrow the results.


Everyone there is both an Office user and a Mac user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. I believe you will find the contributors there knowledgeable and very helpful.
