You can download the Windows sync client here to give yourself a way to access your OneDrive for Business files on your computer. You can also choose to map your OneDrive for Business space as a network drive without downloading and installing the client for Windows. 

To do this, you must log in to OneDrive for Business on the web using Internet Explorer, add OneDrive as a Trusted Site in Internet Explorer, and then map the drive as follows.

Add OneDrive as a Trusted Site in Internet Explorer.

  1. Using Internet Explorer, log into your OneDrive for Business account by navigating to https://livealbany-my.sharepoint.com/personal/USERNAME_albany_edu/Documents/, replacing USERNAME with your UAlbany Mail username - the part of your email address before @albany.edu.
  2. Enter your full UAlbany Mail email address and password.  Check Keep me signed in and then click Sign in.
  3. Click tools, then Internet Options.

  5. Make sure Connect using different credentials is checked and press Finish.
  6. Enter your full UAlbany Mail email address and password in the Windows Security pop-up and check Remember my credentials.  Press OK.
