I heard JH faculty and staff have access to free copies of Microsoft Office 365 for personal use. How do I get/install this?Go to https://portal.office.com and enter JHED-ID@jh.edu as the login account (note this is "@jh.edu" not "@jhu.edu").  You should be re-directed to the Johns Hopkins login page before even having a chance to enter a password. Login with your JHED ID and password (do not include the "@jh.edu"). Once on the Office 365 portal, you should see a link to install Microsoft Office (likely in the upper right-hand corner).

I am having to enter my old JHED password on my SON laptop or offsite desktop. How do I fix this to that my device accepts my current password?

For laptop, simply bring it on campus and log into it while you are connected to the Hopkins WiFi network. Your current JHED password should work and will synchronize with the saved password on your system.

If you are having this issue with an offsite SON desktop or you are unable to bring your laptop on campus, follow these steps:

  1. Connect the system to the Pulse Secure VPN
  2. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del and choose "Lock this computer"
  3. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del again and enter your current JHED password to unlock the computer
  4. The saved password on your system should now be in sync with the JHED system
