All options are greyed out. Checking my own role is also greyed out, though I assume that is, because I am the only global administrator.
I also tried to access the classic portal, but can't, as I don't have the necessary subsriptions.
User Settings all work and everything else seems to be normal as well, just the group settings won't.
Do I need any subscriptions? Or is it just a bug?

This is not about subscription and it's not about a bug.
This content applies only to Office 365 groups(Unified groups) .
Office 365 Groups settings are configured using a Settings object and a SettingsTemplate object. Initially, you don't see any Settings objects in your directory, because your directory is configured with the default settings.
To change the default settings, you must create a new settings object using a settings template. Settings templates are defined by Microsoft. There are several different settings templates.
To configure Office 365 group settings for your directory, you use the template named "Group.Unified". To configure Office 365 group settings on a single group, use the template named "Group.Unified.Guest". This template is used to manage guest access to an Office 365 group.
See more details about Azure Active Directory cmdlets for configuring group settings in this document.
Update
You can also use Azure AD Premium to enable this setting. Azure AD basic or free does not support Group settings. You can try to get Azure Active Directory Premium free for one month. Then you can enable Self-service group management to Yes:

So, in my search for enabling Account settings sync in Windows, i ended up in Azure, but there I stranded.
My goal is to enable Account settings sync in Windows (found under Start->Settings->Accounts->Sync your settings) This is now grayed out with a red message at the top "Synchronization is not available for your account. Please contact your system administrator to resolve this."
Apparently this has something to do with my Office 365 account being listed under the Start->Settings->Accounts->Access to work or school as "Connected to Azure AD from [company name]"
When i try to disconnect my PC from this organisation network it says "This PC is not added to a domain"
So searching on it lead me to the Azure AD portal when i should enable the "User may sync settings and app data" found under Azure Active Directory->Devices->Device Settings. However, this setting is missing from my portal. Comparing with screenshots found on the internet it seems to be the only setting on that page that is missing.
That lead me to enable Enterprise State Roaming found under Azure Active Directory->Devices->Enterprise State Roaming, but this is missing completely from the navigation menu.
Am i missing something in any of the steps?
I've read some people are trialing an Azure subscription, but i'm not. I only have an Office 365 Business
subscription.
Look like your system is not in the Domain. You can put the your system in Domain as below --
Go to PC>>Properties>>Change Setting>>Change(under Computer Name)>>Put the Domain Name(under Member Of)>>OK
After that you should add system to Azure AD as below path -
Start->Settings->Accounts->Access to work or school as "Connected to Azure AD from [company name] .
and should able to login through Azure AD authentication.
Yeah, if you're connected to the domain it's at the behest of the domain settings whether or not you can synch and there's not much a user can do about that, and if you disconnect from the domain just to get away from the domain settings to enable it you're not going to have access to the domain.
If you want to synch AND be a part of the domain you have to contact the domain admin.
Given situation
I have two Azure AD directories in one Azure portal tenant.
AD_1 - A directory that got automatically created when signed up for Azure cloud the first time
AD_2 - A directory that I have manually created for managing a different set of users.
I also have an office365 account, that got created using the same Azure account. In it first I purchased a subscription.
SUBSCRIPTION_1 - only office apps. The licenses are attached to users in AD_1
Later I purchased another subscription purely for non-office products for different set of users.
SUBSCRIPTION_2 - exchange, yammer etc apps - A new subscription.
Questions
Is it possible to associate SUBSCRIPTION_2 to only users in directory AD_2?
If above is YES, how to do?
Disclaimer: I am a noob to whole Azure AD, Office 365, for that matter Microsoft products. Please forgive my naivety.
No matter the originating subscription access to services or apps only depends on licenses. So just navigate to Office 365 Portal > Administration > Users > Active, there select a user and assign the appropriate license, no matter from which AD user comes from, in fact it is also possible to assign licenses to users created in a local AD that is synchronized to Azure AD (administration privileges are needed for this procedure)
I'm trying to delete my Ad, but the system says that I cannot delete it because "there is an Application using it.
When I go to Application Tab, it just show me Visual Studio Online (with www.visualstudio.com url) and did not show an option to delete... How can I do to remove it?
Note: I've tried to create another Azure account, but the system tells
me that I've already created my mycompany.onmicrosoft.com
A global administrator can delete an Azure AD directory from the portal. When a directory is deleted, all resources contained in the directory are also deleted; so you should be sure you don’t need the directory before you delete it.
There are some conditions before you can delete the AD from portal because it will impact the users or Applications.
global administrator who will delete the AD
sync will need to be turned off if you are using in house AD to Azure
Other users must be deleted in the cloud directory by using the Management Portal or the Azure module for Windows PowerShell.
Any applications must be deleted before the AD can be deleted.
Make sure there is no online subscription connected with AD.
Check in Azure management ? settings for more info.
I hope you can resolve your issue quicker.
Let me know the outcome.

In my company, we are using Office365 for our emails.
In addition to this, we are using Windows Azure Active Directory to secure some applications.
Now I've been asked to create some kind of link between our users in Office 365 and Windows Azure Active Directory.
The point would be to have some admin applications deployed and secured with WAAD but for which the users are the ones from Office365.
I've found lots of documentation on the web on how to sync directories but not really anything stating clearly that this is possible.
I'd like to insist on the fact that it is our own application that we'd like to secure like this.
Thanks
(Edit 2018-03-23: This answer was updated to reflect changes in the new Azure portal.)
The underlying directory for Office 365 is Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). This means that if you have an Office 365 account, you already have a directory -or "tenant"- in Azure AD.
In your case, I think what you want to do is move from securing your application with a different Azure AD tenant (under a different domain), to securing your applications with the tenant you got when you started using Office 365. The key here is to be able to get access to your Office 365 tenant from the Azure portal.
All you need to do is sign in to the Azure portal (https://portal.azure.com) with you Office 365 account (which, remember, is an Azure AD account), and head over to the "Azure Active Directory" blade. (Note: You do not need an Azure subscription in order to manage your Azure AD tenant in the Azure portal.)
Now you can go about adding and configuring apps to the Office 365 tenant so that you can use that tenant to secure your apps.
Extra: Since you've already started doing things with another Azure subscription (presumably your Microsoft Account, MSA --formerly LiveID--), you might be interested in transferring that Azure subscription to be owned by an account in your primary Azure AD tenant: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/billing/billing-subscription-transfer
If the aim is to make the Office 365 directory available inside the Azure portal, this currently works:
In the Azure portal, under Active Directory, click the New button, then Directory, then Custom Create. In the Directory pull-down, select 'Use existing directory' and follow the instructions to sign out and sign in using your Office 365 admin user. This will make your Office 365 directory available inside your Azure portal (in addition to any other Azure directories you have access to.)
When you setup your Azure Subcription did you use the same account you used when you setup your Office 365 Subscription? If so you should be able to see an existing WAAD instance when you log into Azure that has your #*.onmicrosoft.com domain registered against it. If you don't see that you may be able to add the domain to Azure subscription assuming of you are the domain admin.

I found this that was quite helpful: http://blogs.technet.com/b/ad/archive/2013/04/29/using-a-existing-windows-azure-ad-tenant-with-windows-azure.aspx
Simply, I have an Azure corporate subscription. I have a co-administrator who has his own personal 90-day trial subscription. When the co-administrator uses the new preview portal (manage.windowsazure.com) he can see their personal subscription (where he is admin) but cannot select or view the corporate subscription (where he is co-administrator).
Any ideas? We want to have multiple people within our company assigned as co-administrators so they can play with the preview features (Virtual Machines, Azure Web Sites, Media Services).
I had this problem as well, in fact trying to see data via the resources.azure.com site was proving unfruitful.
As it turns out the new portal has its own user management features that are more granular than the admin/co-admin of the old portal.
Allow a subscription owner to make you a contributor or owner in the new portal and you should be able to see more data on the subscription via the new portal.
To do that:
As the service administrator, go to the new portal
Browse to Subscriptions
Locate & select the subscription you need to add users into
In the subscription details blade, select settings
Under resource management, select users
You'll notice that even though you are a co-admin, you're not listed among the users.
Add the user and make them a contributor/owner
There's more information on Azure's role-based access control here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/role-based-access-control-configure/
The Azure Admin has changed so the 2 current answers are outdated. Follow the following steps:
Open the subscription, click on 'my permissions' then 'click here to view complete access details for this subscription'
In Access Control (IAM), Click on Role assignments, then click Add
Choose 'Add role assignment' then choose the role to be 'Contributor' and choose which user you want to add from the right hand pane , then click Save.
Make sure the user is listed as a contributor under 'Role Assignments'
The main problem with Windows Azure preview portal is that if you are account administrator for any specific Windows Azure Subscription, it will only show configuration specific to that particular subscription when u used the live ID which is account administrator for other Windows Azure Accounts. If same live ID is service administrator of two different Subscriptions then in preview portal both subscription details will show up. This issue is related with Windows Azure Preview Portal and still in progress.
So if you want to solve this problem, you should use OrgID/liveID which is service administrator in multiple subscriptions (if applicable) this way that LiveID will shows details with both subscriptions.
