I have a new computer. I purchased an annual Microsoft 365 subscription to be able to use Word on my I-Mac. It was mistakenly downloaded/redeemend to a wrong account.

    Hello, if you purchased Microsoft 365 subscription on your account, you should be using that same account to download and install it via account.microsoft.com/services.

    Do you meant that you have purchased it already using your other account that you are not intended to use?

    I purchased it along with my new I-Mac. When I installed it, it went to an account I use at my church. It is for my personal use on my personal computer.
