    • You are prompted to verify your identity when you try to insert an app for Office.

    In this scenario, the app is not activated after you verify your identity.
     

  • When you input invalid data into a cell that has validation criteria set and then focus on an Office Store application in an Excel 2013 workbook, you receive a dialog box that states there is a data validation error as expected. However, you cannot interact with the dialog box and Excel 2013 stops responding.

  • Consider the following scenario:

    • You sign in with your Microsoft account in Office 2013.

    • You enable the two-step verification feature for your Microsoft account.

    • The Account tab in the Office 2013 application has an Account Error message and a Fix Me button.

    In this scenario, the Fix Me button does not fix the account error.
