Microsoft Investigating Widespread Teams, Outlook, OneDrive Outages [Update: Fixed]
In a series of tweets posted on the Microsoft 365 Status Twitter account, Microsoft said it was taking steps to isolate the problem, but did not mention how widespread it was.
“We’re investigating issues impacting multiple Microsoft 365 services,” said Microsoft, to which it later added: “We’ve rolled back a network change that we believe is causing impact. We’re monitoring the service as the rollback takes effect.”
Online outage tracker Downdetector shows almost 4,000 people in India have been impacted and more than 5,000 in the UK reported that Outlook was inaccessible. Australia, Japan, and the United Arab Emirates have also seen spikes in outage reports.
We’ve rolled back a network change that we believe is causing impact. We’re monitoring the service as the rollback takes effect.

Microsoft Teams is used by more than 280 million people globally across businesses and schools, according to the company. Other services impacted by the outage reportedly include Microsoft Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive for Business.
Microsoft also said it was investigating a connectivity issue with its cloud computing service, Azure, affecting what it called “a subset of users”. We’ll update this article once we learn more.
Update: Microsoft says it has now “confirmed that the impacted services have recovered and remain stable.”

Apple Preparing iOS 16.1.1 as Widespread Wi-Fi Bug Persists
MacRumors in the past week has seen signs of devices running iOS 16.1.1 in our website analytics, indicating the update is under testing within Apple and could see a launch in the near future. While it’s unclear what the update will include, it’s possible it could fix a widespread and persistent Wi-Fi bug that has impacted users. The bug causes a user’s iPhone to randomly disconnect from Wi-Fi when left on standby, such as overnight or in other situations.
Alongside the fix for the Wi-Fi bug, Apple could address long-standing complaints from users since iOS 16’s launch in September, including reports of battery drain, slow Spotlight search, and laggy animations on iPhone 14 Pro models when swiping out of apps. For new features, iOS 16.1.1 could include Emergency SOS via Satellite for iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro models.
Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman recently said in his Power On newsletter that Apple is likely to release Emergency SOS via Satellite via a dot-update to iOS 16 in November, which could turn out to be iOS 16.1.1. MacRumors has seen no sign of any other iOS 16.1.X update in our analytics at the time of writing. Apple has not yet provided specific information on when Emergency SOS via Satellite will be available to users beyond saying in November.
Apple is currently publicly testing iOS 16.2 and iPadOS 16.2 with developers and members of the public beta program. iOS 16.2 is slated to be launched in mid-December.
