I use OneNote on my Mac-Desktop with a company account and also want to include my personal note book. This was possible right now. Now, I got a new company account and it is not possible any more. The Authenticator App on my iPhone tells my the account cannot be found. Same message appears after a new registration of my personal account.

    Hi @Jörg Diringer,

    Try signing out of all Microsoft 365 apps and signing in again with your personal account. If the issue persists, install the reset tool for Mac: https://office-reset.com/ and select "Reset License and Sign-in".
