Hi guys, I'd like to add my university email to windows 8 on my laptop but it's not recognising it as a Microsoft account. My university's email system runs on Office 365 and works on the Outlook web app there for this should be classed as a Microsoft account right? I just want my OneDrive files to sync so I can do my work but Win 8 isn't having it.

Hope you can help! Cheers

No, it's not a Microsoft account. Just because your university's email system runs on Office 365 does not mean you have a Microsoft account. Create a new account, tell it you do not have a Microsoft account, and set it up using your university email address.
