Combining PC online storage accounts

- By STEVE ALEXANDER

My Windows 10 PC has two OneDrive online storage accounts that I’d like to combine and access with a single password. The personal account is tied to my Hotmail email address and limited to 5 gigabytes of storage. The other, obtained through a subscripti­on to Microsoft’s Office 365 program and tied to a business email, stores 100 gigabytes. Can I combine them?

Microsoft won’t let you combine a personal OneDrive account with one obtained through an Office 365 subscripti­on. But there are ways to work around that.

One is to set up OneDrive so that you can simultaneo­usly view your two online storage accounts with a single password. To do that, open OneDrive using one of your email addresses, then add the second email address.

Another alternativ­e is to quit using your personal account, and instead transfer all of its files to the Office 365 account. Even your combined files are unlikely to exceed the 100-gigabyte capacity of the business account, and you’d be able to access every- thing with one password.

I’m having problems with the PC version of the instant messaging app Imo. I’ve been making video calls with Imo for months, but recently the audio has stopped working. The PC’s audio still works for other online programs, such as YouTube. What can I do?

Because you’ve been using an older version of the Imo software for several months, you may be able to fix the problem by down- loading the latest version of the app (version 1.3.0), which was released in July for Windows 7, 8 and 10.
