Can Excel 2011 for Mac connect to OLAP cubes ?

I am trying to connect to an external source for Pivot Table data which is an OLAP Cube. On my PC version of Excel I simply choose Data - From other Sources - From Analysis Services and away we go - this option does not appear to be available on the Mac verison of Excel 2011
Does anyone know how I can overcome this?

Can't open an Excel doc (w/ macros and VBA) in Excel 2011 for Mac. Anyone have any ideas (other than using a pc instead)?

Hi all,
I am trying to open a document created in Excel in Windows on my Excel 2011 for mac copy. The issue seems to be related to using the Macros and VB associated with the .xlsm doc. The specific error I get in Excel is:
Compile error in hidden module: Utilities
When I try to open it in an Excel web app, or other online excel environment (whether using Firefox or Chrome) I get this message:
We can't show these features in the browser:
VBA Project
Shapes or other objects
few other forums suggested an issue with adobe add-ins, but I don't show one in the Excel>Tools>Addins dialogue.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

The same error message will result from a problem in any add-ins ,thus you should investigate other installed add-ins. It is worth the effort to try to start your excel program in safe mode. About how to use safe mode in Mac OS, Please refer to :http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892428
If this issue is gone in this situation, try to disable add-ins in excel.
In addition, since this issue is related to Excel 2011 for Mac, I would suggest that you post your issue in the following forum:http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac

Excel 2011 for Mac issue

I’m using excel 2011 for Mac and my OS is Yosemite. After a recent update from Microsoft I’ve stopped seeing what I am typing in the cell until I press enter. It appears in the formula bar but not in the cell. How can I change this so the characters show in the cells as I type them?

Inserting Symbols in Excel 2011 for Mac

How do I insert the `cubic' symbol (the tiny 3) in Excel 2011 for Mac OS Yosemite Version 10? I upgraded my OS recently and the Advanced Symbol tab seems to have disappeared. Please help.

I suggest doing it as follows:
Show OS X's Character Viewer. Do that from the Menu Bar. If you don't see how, go to System Preferences > Keyboard and check "Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in Menu Bar."
In the search bar in the upper right, type "3".
In the results (shown in the lower right), the first result you see is a superscript "3".
Double click the superscript "3" to transfer it to your Excel spreadsheet (wherever you left your cursor there).

Excel 2011 for Mac problem on Mavericks?

I have an unusual problem that just reared its head yesterday. I'm on Excel for Mac 2011 v. 14.3.8, and Mavericks 10.9. I don't know if this is specifically Mavericks related or not.
I have a file that resides on my Mac Pro in our den. We have our two MacBook Airs set up with file sharing, screen sharing, etc., so that we can easily access and update that file from our Airs (its's our personal finance spreadsheet, a critical document for us!).
All of the sudden, when we try to access the file from our Airs via conventional file sharing, we get the following message: "Excel could not open 2013 Finances.xlsx because some content is unreadable. Do you want to open and repair this workbook? If Excel cannot repair the file, some data may be lost" Our options in the dialog box are to Cancel or Open and Repair. When I click on the latter, I get the following message: "The workbook cannot be opened or repaired by Microsoft Excel because it is corrupt".
Interestingly, though, I can open the file normally from the desktop, so the file doesn't appear "corrupt".
Also, from our Airs, I can open up any other file via file sharing, so it's not a global File Sharing problem.
Also, from our Airs, I can open the file via Screen Sharing, interestingly.
Finally, I went into Time Machine and restored the file from a few days ago. It continues to get weirder. I can open that restored file fine via File Sharing on the Airs. Then, from the Airs, if I add some new data, then save it, then try to reopen it, I get the error message and am unable to open it from my Air while being able to open it from my desktop.
I've posted to a Microsoft forum as wel, but I'd appreciate any help you can give me!

Excel 2011 for Mac No Longer Works. Wonder if it is Maverick?

I am hoping someone can help me.
I am wondering if this my problem has something to do with Maverick update but my Mac Excel no longer works. I can save a file and it will open once but after that it will open but be completely blank. As for older files, ones that I desperately need, I keep getting this message: The file format or extension is invalid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file"
I have spent hours on these forums and Mac forums reading about other peopel havign the issue and trying to troubleshoot it myself. I have already attempted opening the file by putting it in the shared folder and creating a new user. I have also cached the fonts, eliminated all fonts with warnings and duplicate fonts. I have gone into disk utility and repaired permissions. I have also tried software like Onyx to repair.I have also trashed Word font cache. Nothing has worked. Could someone please help me figure this out. I do have the files on an external hardrive and have tried uploading to a PC or Google Drive Spreadsheet and nothing has worked.
Does anyone have any suggestions or why this is happening. I no longer have the disk so I can't reload. I was wondering if my best bet now moving forward would be to revert back to an older operating system.
Any insight would be helpful.
Thanks,
Andrea

Have you attempted to open the troublesome files with a different program that reads Excel formatted spreadsheets? Open them then re-save them in a format Excel will read.
If you use any "cleanup" or "anti-virus" or similarly categorized utilities on your Mac, don't. Junk software like that is very aggressively marketed and is capable of corrupting system and other files, resulting in nothing but misery.
You may find help on a Microsoft support forum. When you eventually grow tired of playing Microsoft's games, consider the alternatives. There are many options today, most of them are better and some are free.
Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10 but older version is free if you can find it)
OpenOffice (completely free)
Numbers ($19.99)
Keynote ($19.99)
Pages ($19.99)

Issues connecting Outlook 2011 for Mac to Exchange Server 2013

Could someone help me with the bellow please:
I have a Mac with outlook 2011 on it.
We have recently set up Exchange Server 2013, and all of the Windows Workstation just required the trusted root certificate to be installed and they were working.
However I have spent hours reading different forums trying to get this working on the Mac and no luck.
The auto discover does not work when setting up the exchange email, therefore I have also tried setting up manually but it still will not connect to the server.

Because even after 14 years MS has failed to add arabic support to most Office products for Mac. Instead use Open/LibreOffice or Numbers.

I cannot send email from Outlook 2011 (for Mac). But can send from other applications

I have Outlook 2011 for Mac - I have validated the settings and up until yesterday could send and receive emails using my .mac account.
I can send using icloud and mail (I use Outlook for work purposes) and can send in outlook using my work accounts.
My settings
Incoming server - imap.mail.me.com
Use SSL to connect checked.
Outgoing server - smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked (port 587)
use SSL to connect checked
authentication - Username and password.
I have rebuilt the database - no effect.
I continue to get the error
"Mail could not be sent
The server for account "mac" returned the error. 5.7.8. Bad Username or password (Authentication failed..)" Your username/password or security settings may be incorrect. Would you like to try rentering your password"
I have validated my username and password and rentered them both.
I have emptied the outbox and retried but nothing works.
Thanks for the help.

Update - I now have it working.
am not really sure what exactly fixed it.
I changed a lot of things but my setup now has the following which I think fixed.
outgoing server - p06-smtp.mail.me.com
override default port checked - port now 587
on more options button changed it to "use incoming server info".

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.
