How do I download my Microsoft office on to my MacBook Air using airdrop from my iMac? Please help

Out of curiosity, does Microsoft's licensing allow for such an install and/or more than one install? I just did a cursory check on their licensing and found that most are only licensed for one computer unless you buy a special key card.
I had a different app once that was only allowed on one computer; it would not install on the other Mac. You may therefore encounter problems - since you must have an install CD, why not use that if you have the key card allowing you to install it on more than one?

  • Where can I download a digital Microsoft Office Mac 2011 for macbook air. I have a key product at hand.

    where can I download a digital Microsoft Office Mac 2011 for macbook air. I have a key product at hand.

    While they certainly don't make it clear, if you actually select the link on CNET, it's only an update file (Office2011-1434UpdateEN.dmg) which is listed on Microsoft's site:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads?pid=Mactopia_Office2011&fid=ECF3967A-2593 -4E94-8670-CE555E20047F
    They used to allow for a trial download, but I haven't been able to track that down in a while.  If the original poster has their key, it can be downloaded directly from Microsoft here:

  • How do I get Microsoft Office unto my new MacBook Air?

    I recently purchased a new MacBook Air to be able to complete my online courses, and soon after I noticed that I don't have Microsoft Office pre-installed. Is that standard that Mac computers don't have Microsoft Office already installed? How can I get MS without having to pay an exuberant amount for a new license?

    yes it is normal, mac computers don't come with MS office on them
    unfortunately the only (legal) way of acquiring microsoft office is to buy a license - as a student you might be entitled to discounts depending on your country (in the UK we have http://www.software4students.co.uk)
    there are alternatives - Pages/Numbers/Keynote are the Apple equivalent of Word, ExCel and PowerPoint respectively. office documents can be opened using these apps too. i hear complaints from people who need certain features only available in MS office but for the average user the Apple versions are brilliant
    then there's the free openoffice, etc, if you were looking for something along those lines

  • How can i transfer microsoft office to my new macBook air?

    How can I transfer microsoft office from my old MacBook Air to my new one?

    All your data will be transferred if you use Setup Assistant, which starts automatically the first time you boot the new machine. You may need to contact Microsoft to reactivate the product.

  • I had Microsoft Office installed in my Macbook Air by one of the technicians in the store, it was working fine the first week but after that it started popping a notice saying it cannot verify my suscription online and now I cannot open any documents?

    I just bought a Macbook Air almost a month now. When I bought it, the technician installed Microsoft Office 365 as they were having a promotion at the time. However after a week of using it, it started popping up a notice saying that it cannot verify Microsoft Office. I still managed to open the word document but as of today, it will not open. I took it to the Mac store last week, and they said that there was nothing wrong with it and they could not figure out any problem.
    I don't know what to do and I am in desperate need of help. I cannot open my documents at all and I have my research paper that I need to finish writing. This is very disappointing and extremely stressful for me. If anyone has any suggestions of how this can be fixed, please let me know. I do not want to lose my hard work =(

    Microsoft Office 365 is a subscription - based service. You have to pay for it... and keep paying for it... and paying for it... as in 365 days a year... or lose your hard work.
    Office Home Premium is a mere $10 a month, but a convenient annual subscription is only $100 a year. This is a substantial discount to Microsoft's Office 365 business products ($150 / employee / year).
    Such a deal! Are you not absolutely thrilled?
    Here are some slightly more reasonable alternatives, all of which are compatible with their Office equivalents:
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
    OpenOffice (completely free)
    Numbers ($19.99)
    Pages ($19.99)

  • Microsoft office 2008 on new macbook air

    I am trying to install my old microsoft office 2008: home and student on my new macbook air with os x mavericks. Microsofts home page is telling me that this is an unsupported product. Can i still install it or do i actually have to buy a new office-package? I can't afford this and would like to use one of the two remaining users on my old office-package, since i hav only used one. Can someone help me with this?

    Good question, all I can find online are updates, not full versions. Assuming that it is no longer available for download (it is 6 years old now) you will have to buy an external drive and use it to install from your discs.
    Edit:
    Found a download on CNET, download it, then very carefully install it, CNET has a bad habit of 'adding' things to downloads so read what the installer dialog boxes say.
    The download is here
    Here is a better source to download from, Microsoft Office 2008. version 12.3.3

  • How do I download cs6 Design & Web Premium to my macbook air?

    I need help installing my Cs6 software to my macbook air, does any one know how I would be able to?

    What specifically are you asking? You can simply download the trial version and activate it. If that doesn't work or you have another question, you need to be more specific.

  • I just had to replace my hard drive. I want to know how to re-download my Lightroom 5.0. I have my serial number and everything. Please help me!!

    So, this past week I had a lot of problems with my computer and had to replace my hard drive. Doing so, meant that I lost all my files, pictures, Word, Power Point, and Lightroom 5.0 which I just got in December. Right now, I just am downloading the Cloud, and it says that Lightroom is downloading. I hope that it will be on my computer and all good but Im really not sure if I'm doing the right thing. I tried calling customer service TWICE yesterday, got put on hold both times, once for 25 minutes the other for 32 minutes. I was dumb. BUT if you are able to help me get Lightroom back on to my computer that would be wonderful. If I am already on the right path and just have to wait for it to finish downloading that woohoo!!
    Thanks,
    December Emilie

  • I just purchase my first macbook air and i don't know how to download my microsoft office 2010 that i have already purchased for my old computer. Do i need to purchase again for the microsoft office for the mac?

    I have a windows computer before i purchased my mac and i had already spend $500 for microsoft office professional 2010, i would ike to know if i can download the same one to my macbook air and how to do it. please need help!

    The problem is that your Office 2010 package is a Windows application, and Windows softare doesn't run natively under MacOS. As a result, you can't simply download it or install it on your MacBook Air.
    You can set up your MacBook Air to run Windows as well as MacOS, using either Boot Camp (where you pick whether to run Windows or MacOS each time the system starts, but you can't run both at the same time) or using a 'virtual' Windows installation (where you use software such as VMware to create a virtual Windows machine which you run as a window inside MacOS), but in either case you'll need a licence for Windows, plus the virtualisation software if you want to go that route. In other words, it's not simple, though in either case your Office software would be usable.
    Some software houses are prepared to cross-licence software in this sort of instance - they'll allow a copy for one platform to lapse and charge a relatively low amount for new copy, on the basis that the user has already paid full price, but Microsoft generally don't seem generally cooperative in that instance.

  • How can I download Microsoft office excel  for my MacBook Pro Mac OSX version for free. Please help me!

    How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro  for free?

    You can't. Excel is a commercial product sold by Microsoft in an Office "package" and not as a stand-alone product.
    If you need to be able to open and save Excel documents on your Mac, however, you could try the free LibreOffice.

  • How do I can I install MS Office 2008 on a MacBook Air w/ a valid product key? Can I download files somewhere?

    How do I can I install MS Office 2008 on a MacBook Air w/ a valid product key? Can I download files somewhere?
    Here's the scenario....
    I've got a brand new gift MacBook Air 11" and I want to install Microsoft Office 2008 since I have a valid key license that's given by my nephew. Do I have any other options here?  Can I download all the necessary files from somewhere officially and just enter the Product Key to install what I need?  Are there other possible options? 
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    You can use a remote disc to download Office as shown here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5287
    But please note several cautions:
    1.  The product key is intended for one machine only.  You would have to be the sole user.
    2.  Office 2008 is now very close to being obsolete.  Office 2011 has been out for years, and Office 365 is available for your Mac as well.
