Installing Microsoft Office:mac 2004 Student and Teacher Edition

I am trying to install Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student and teacher edition.
I don't know how to achieve this.
I have tried the Office Setup Assistant but it says "You can't open the application "Office Setup Assistant" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
So, I assume I have to do the "Drag the Microsoft Office 2004 folder to your hard disk to install all Office components" option.
Being very new to iMac, my question is, "Where exactly do I drag it to? Which icon along the bottom or should it go somewhere else?
Any help would be great
Thanks

It will not work with Mountain Lion. You need Office 2011 for OS X.
Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Issues between Microsoft Office:mac 2004 (Student) and Korean Language

I use Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student edition on my iMac. For a Korean class I'm taking I type in Korean on Microsoft Word for Mac 2004 (student edition) and as to be expected Word indecates the spelling is wrong. I have tried to change the proofing setting so Word will Proof in Korean but I have been unsucessful. What can I do (or get or download) to get Word for Mac to proof Korean? If you think you may be able to help me but you find his message to be somewhat hard to understand please email me at [email protected] and I will to explain my issue more clearly.

Best ask in the newsgroups which MS runs for its products:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups
Are you sure the stuff you want exists? My info is that Office 2004 comes with proofing tools for English, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, German, Danish, Swedish, Portuguese, Finnish, and Dutch. No Korean or Chinese.

Microsoft Office 2004 Student and Teacher Edition

Hi my dyslexia gets me into trouble and I think my Office appts won't work. I had techs from the computer store install Office but told them not to install Power Point (I think. I had looked for it in Finder and it didn't come up with it. I looked in the application Office folder and I didn't see its icon). I got an email that has a Power Point doc so I installed Power Point off the CD. But in doing that I started the complete install because I didn't notice the words "all applications" and when I read that after I dragged the icon onto my Mac HD, I cancelled the installation part way, dragged that icon into the trash and emptied it. Then I started the the install using the install help and completed the process of just choosing the Power Point. Now all 4 applications do not open and I get no response for Entourage at all when choosing its icon, and a message for Word, Power Point and Excel thats says they cannot load the__ shared libraries. Also in the proess of the guided downloading, I checked for updates and came upon the latest that includes other past updates, and read something about Entourage update problems so I downloaded that update then I noticed later that it was included in the newer update (I never installed this single update and put it in the trash and emptied that). I never updated yet the newer updates for Office because of the problems that just arrived. I cannot open any of these programs or even open any docs. I have hundreds of emails that are in Entourage and I hate to loose them. I need simple to understand help because I have problems with understanding technical words. I am intelligent, but not a techie.

Then I started the the install using the install help and completed the process of just choosing the Power Point.
Which is why Word, Entourage and Excel won't open. They're no longer on the hard drive. Follow these steps.
1) It's prudent to make a backup of your files first. For Entourage, backup the entire "Main Identity" folder in your user account. You'll find it a few levels deep in the Documents folder. Also any Word and Excel documents you have. Putting copies of them in a new folder on the desktop will do.
2) Use the Remove Office tool on the installation CD to remove all former traces of Office from the hard drive. This will normally not remove your personal files, but step one will save you from disaster if it does.
3) Reinstall Office from the CD. Use the "Microsoft AutoUpdate" tool in the Applications folder to apply all updates up to the current version. This will only be installed if you use the selective installation application on the CD.
Entourage should then automatically recognize your database in your user account.

Anyone having trouble installing microsoft office mac home student ?

keeps saying i have to shut down safari, but even once i've shut safari down it still doesnt go to completion.... :S

Another point of interest at the end: If you see a blue, horizontal, oval light on the Dock under the Safari icon then Safari is open. The same applies to any application for that matter.
Clicking the red button at the top left corner of the window does not Quit Safari. Instead it closes the window. To properly Quit Safari, click the Safari menu, then click Quit Safari. Alternatively, Command-Q is the keyboard short cut.

Office Mac 2004 S and T edition - Word - formatting palette disappears!

Open word document, click on 'formatting palette' in the toolbar, and lo! it 'genies' down and disappears off the bottom of my screen!
I've tried changing the screen settings, 'resetting' the toolbars, even uninstalling and reinstalling Office 2004, but all to no avail. It has only just started to do this, and is proving to be dashed annoying.
Does anyone have any pointers?
Many thanks...

Since Office is not an Apple product you'd probably be better off posting your question on MIcrosoft's own forums for Mac Office, as they would be more focused on the issue than an Apple forum about compatibility issues between Mac OS and Windows:

How do I re-install CS6 Standard Design Suite Student and Teacher Edition after a computer crash?

Help!!! I need to quickly get back to school work! My computer was experiencing some serious problems and I had to reboot to the original state of the computer, so I lost all of the programs, including my CS6 Student Edition. How can I download and reinstall it on my computer now?

I am assuming you are trying to obtain Creative Suite 6 Design Standard? If so you can trigger the download from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=design_standard. After you log into the Adobe Download Assistant it should begin your download automatically. If it does not try again but utilize a different web browser.
Alternately you can initiate a direct download by following the directions listed at http://forums.adobe.com/thread/981369.

I bought cs6 student and teacher edition, but it says in the instruction if i wanted to install it in mac, i should click the install.app.

Student and Teacher Edition Information

Bakz did you just purchase CS6? If so you may want to work with your reseller to obtain a Mac version of the license.
If that fails then please see Order product | Platform, language swap for information on how to request a change of your Windows license to a Mac OS license.

Installing Microsoft Office Student and Teacher Edition 2004 (Mac)?

Before I install Microsoft Office 2004-Student and Teacher Edition (Mac), Do I need to Uninstall/Trash the TRIAL Versions of Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage that came with the computer?
*I have not activated the Microsoft Office 2004 Test Drive (30 day trial) yet for Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Entourage, which
was already installed on my computer.
Do I need to activate the trial?
or Do I need to just Uninstall/Trash each ot the individual programs I mentioned above, Before I continue, to keep it from messing up the installion?
Thanks In Advance!!
Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hi FritztheKat (he was a very naughty kitty ,
If you never installed the Test Drive, then simply trash it. Otherwise, you'll need to run the uninstall application and reinstall the full version, or it will eventually time out. If you can't remember if you installed the trial version, then keep it around on an external disk or CD-R/RW. Though as mentioned above, the full version gives you the option of uninstalling both the full and trial versions at once before reinstalling, so you shouldn't need to keep the trial version around. You can always download it again if necessary.
Being at 10.4.6 for Tiger and with all updates installed for Office, there's nothing else to do there.
As far as which apps to use, that's up to you. I use Entourage simply because it came with Office. That's not to say it's a better program by default than OS X's Mail. But I've never used Mail, so can't comment on which has the upper hand.
You already have iChat, so MSN messenger isn't needed. But I just don't do any chatting online, so can't really tell you if one has features the other doesn't.
If you do a lot of work for or with companies and/or PC users in general, then Word is the way to go for word processing. 100% compatibility with the majority of users when sharing documents is a big plus in that catagory.
The Creative Suite will work fine (according to those using it on an Intel based Mac), but it will be rather slow since it has to be run through the Rosetta emulation. As will Office. Both Microsoft and Adobe have hinted that the next release of their products will be Spring of 2007. At which point, they'll be Universal apps, and so native to Intel Macs.

Re-installing Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac)?

How can I download and re-install Photoshop CS5 Extended Student and Teacher Edition (for Mac) for which I have a licence? I lost the previous version in a disk crash. I tried downloading the full Photoshop CS5 installer, but I was told I couldn't run the installer because I didn't have permission.
Thanks,

Here is the link for the CS5 installers: Download CS5 products
Be sure to right click and run the installer as an administrator if you have trouble. If it still fails, download the installer again.

I purchased Photoshop Lightroom 5 student and teacher edition on June 11, 2014 and installed it on my Mac Book Pro Lap Top. My computer was recently stolen from my locker at the university. Can I reinstall this software on the new Mac Book Pro that I purchased?

This is a user-to-user forum that is primarily supported by other users such as yourself who have no affiliation with Adobe. It is never a good idea to post your serial number on a public forum. We don't have any access to Adobe records, and your serial number is now available for anyone to use. Bad choice. You can download the latest version of Lightroom 5 from the following website and use your serial number (hopefully) to activate it.

Why is the download "Not applicable" for my online purchase of Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition for Mac?

I purchased “Adobe Captivate 8 Student and Teacher Edition” for Mac on 7/31/14 and it is now 12/17/14 (only 5 months later) but it is showing as “Not applicable” when I go to download (maybe re-download) the program. I understood that I would be able to use the application on 2 computers, one at home and one at work. I think I’ve downloaded the program at home one time but have yet to install and activate it. I now have a new computer at work that can support that program and want to install the program on my office computer, but cannot download it again. Please advise.

It seems like that you have purchased a subscription for Captivate 8. In subscription you do not require any serial number. Subscriptions are activated on the basis of your Adobe Id. When user will install Captivate he has to sign in with the same Adobe Id under which they bought subscription. It will get activated after successful sign in during the installation.
As far as the installer is concern there is no difference in the trial version installer or purchased version installer. The installer is same for trial and purchased copy. All user needs to do is sign in during the installation if it is a subscription or use his serial number if it is a perpetual license or volume license.
You may download the trial version from the link mentioned above and then use your Adobe Id to activate the subscription.
Please let me know in case you need any further information.

Rajeev.

Microsoft Office:Mac 2004 under Yosemite

I know it's very (very) old, but I've been happily running Microsoft Office:Mac 2004 under Snow Leopard and am finally in a position to upgrade to Yosemite. I've found workarounds for all my other important legacy software but was wondering if it's even remotely possible to run Word:Mac 2004 and Excel:Mac 2004 under the new OS?

Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work post-Snow Leopard. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
These two suites are similar to Libre Office:
NeoOffice - $30.00
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.

You can probably get a better response by posting on the windows Compatibility forum here:

Adobe Photoshop CC Student And Teacher Edition MAC (Full LifeTime license) for 100 $

Hello,
I would like to buy Adobe Photoshop CC Student And Teacher Edition MAC (Full LifeTime license) for 100 $ (http://vcatlyawlkgfjddr.topusersoftware.com/product/adobe-photoshop-cc-mac-sndt/).
Does Adobe also offer such a price?
Do you think I can trust (http://vcatlyawlkgfjddr.topusersoftware.com/product/adobe-photoshop-cc-mac-sndt/)?
Thanks for your response.
Best regards, Mel

Hello Mel,
I would not trust it, its impossible to have a a Lifetime License for 100$
So best would be to contact a Reseller or just buy via the Adobe website,
then you know its legit and trustworthy.

- Adobe Creative Cloud for students and teachers | Adobe
Hope This helps!
