My company offered Office Pro Plus 2013 at a huge discount, so I bought the offer, found out I couldn't install it on Vista, and upgraded to Windows 8. Now my account on Windows 8 runs through my Outlook address, as do my Office programs. For example, Word saves to my Outlook account's Skydrive. 

    The hitch is I want to use Skydrive Pro, and as far as Microsoft is concerned, my Office purchase is linked to my work email address. I tried to add my Outlook address as an alias, and was told that already existed. 

    Any suggestions? I just want everything on the same account so it can sync (and so I can work). I mean, I'm having a hard enough time even figuring out if Office Pro Plus includes access to Skydrive Pro, and this isn't helping. Plus every time I try to add a THIRD email address, this one at Gmail, the verification email always returns this message: "There's a temporary problem with the service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later."

many thanks,

Brendan
