Cannot install microsoft office

Just purchased Microsoft Office for Mac (2011)... I thought it would be as easy as loading the disk and let the usual installation process begin. Nothing is happening and the disk eventually rejects itself after 30 seconds or so. Anyone have any ideas?

(and this sounds stupid but people swear it works), hold the Macbook upside down and insert the disk and it might read it.
Hi Alvena,
That actually makes sense. If there's a gap between the disc and the lens even a tiny bit larger than it should be, holding everything upside down may bring the disc close enough for the lens to read it. Now, watching a movie that way is a different story! Thanks for sharing that.

  • Cannot install Microsoft Office 2010

    Hello everyone,
    During the last week I was trying to re-install  Microsoft Office 2010 Professional without result. I was previously unistall Microsoft office 2010 with success and when I tried to installed it again a probelm occured. I run the .exe file, it started
    installing the application but when the processing bar became full a message appeared saying that "A problem occured and the Microsoft Office couldnt installed". It didnt specified what exactly was the problem. I did this mutiple of times without
    result. Can anybody knows why this happened ? Is there any solution? In the past I didnt have such a problem with the installation of Office.
    Thanks

  • Trouble installing microsoft office 2013

     When i try to install Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 32 bit i get the message "Please Wait, were sorry. It looks like another installation is running. Please wait until it's finished and try installing Office again" although i
    do not have any other installations running. And once i press close to that Microsoft Bootstrapper "stops working" I have windows 7. Please help, thankyou!

    Hi,
    First, try to reboot your computer to check the issue, if the issue still occurs, then try the following methods.
    Note: Modifying REGISTRY settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of REGISTRY settings can be solved. Modifications
    of these settings are at your own risk.
    I need you to check in the registry for a certain subkey that might be there. The subkey we are looking for is called “InProgress”
     From your desktop click the Start
    button
    In the search field type “regedit” (do not hit enter, “regedit.exe” will appear in the start menu)
    Right-click “regedit.exe” and select “Run as administrator”
    (If you receive the User Account Control message, select continue or allow to proceed)
    You should now be the Registry Editor.
    Now we are going to browse to the following subkey:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress
    Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    Expand SOFTWARE
    Expand Microsoft
    Expand Windows
    Expand CurrentVersion
    Expand Installer
    Under the “Installer” key do you see the subkey “Inprogress”, if so, right-click the “Inprogress” subkey and select delete.
    After you delete the “Inprogress” subkey, close the Registry Editor and any other window that you may have open and restart your computer.

  • Firefox Not Responding after Installing Microsoft Office 10

    After installing Microsoft Office 10 (student and home edition) on my laptop, I noticed that Firefox is going into the state 'Not Responding' every time I access it - it takes about 10 secs to 'think' and then comes back online. It continues to do this every time I want to access a new page, new link, click on mail in Yahoo Mail, etc. Has anyone experienced this issue?

    1) Check the $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/JServ/etc/logs/jvm
    has servral logs for OACoreGroup Servlets that are initialied
    2) You might have to enable the debug option in jserv.properties and jserv.conf
    (find IsItWorking.java in Metalink for the appropriate note )
    3) If this is 403 forbidden then check trusted.conf alongside httpd.conf
    pls keep posted about how this issue got resolved.

    JSP not responding after installing 11.5.10.2 on IBM
    HACMP
    i have finished installing Oracle applications
    11.5.10.2 on IBM clusters (HACMP version 5.1)its a
    multinode setup with mutual failover. other
    applications are working fine. the installation went
    well. but the final part on the middle tier , during
    the post install checks it says JSP not responding. I
    checked the apache error-log and saw the follwoing
    entry
    [Sun Apr 23 21:04:21 2006] [error] [client
    172.29.200.74] client denied by server configuration:
    /appl/oracle/devcomn/portal/
    DEV_erpappssrv/oprocmgr-service
    >
    that bafles me because that ip address was not used
    in the installation. its the persistent ip address of
    the HACMP. the service ip that was used in the
    configuration file was 172.29.200.75
    however there is no mention of this in the error
    log.i also edited the oprocmgr.conf in the
    Apache/conf directory after which i dont get the
    error however the servlets pages then hangs and
    returns page cannot be displayed error on internet
    explorer. no error is registered on the error log.
    the jdk am using is 1.4.2 which is the recommended
    one.
    what this means is that i cannot access the self
    service pages and as you know you need self service
    pages to access the application in 11.5.10.2
    i opened a TAR with oracle on 8th April 2006 and till
    today i have not been able to get a solution.
    I am hoping that i will get someone in this forum who
    has met a similar problem or who has an insight into
    how we can solve this problem already am weeks past
    the target go live!!!
    Please Kindly help

  • Installing Microsoft Office on 2 user accounts

    Hi
    I have 2 user accounts on a Mac Mini (both administrator)
    I have installed Microsoft Office 2011 with Outlook but it has only shown up on one of user accounts. There was no option to install on both accounts when I installed it.
    Is there anyway to use MS Office 2011 on the 2nd account?
    Thanks in advance

  • Should I have installed Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Pack 64 bit with Ex 2013 SP1?

    I have installed Exchange 2013 SP1 on a 2012R2 server, and all went well (I am at early stages of migration).
    Following the pre-reqs listed here: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb691354%28v=exchg.150%29.aspx#WS2012
    I installed Microsoft Unified Communications Managed API 4.0, Core Runtime 64-bit only.
    Since then I have seen other articles suggesting that I install:
    Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Pack 64 bit
    Microsoft Office 2010 Filter Pack SP1 64 bit
    Given I didn't notice any errors in the install, do I need to install those filter packs or is that outdated advice?
    regards
    Roga

    Thanks for taking the time to post Ed
    I did a bit more research and it appears that there is more than one view on this.
    E.G. this blog
    Why Exchange 2013 doesn’t need the Microsoft Office Filter Pack says:
    "Exchange 2013 swaps MSSearch for the Search Foundation, a component shared with SharePoint 2013. The Search Foundation has no need of the Office Filter Pack because it includes its own filters. Unfortunately, until SP1 came along,
    the Exchange 2013 Setup program overlooked this fact and stated that the Office Filter Pack was a prerequisite. Setup would install if the Office Filter Pack was missing, but who’s going to ignore a warning issued by Setup. In any case, that warning seems
    to have finally been suppressed."
    This blog
    Planning and migrating a small organization from Exchange 2007 to 2013 (Part 10) has:
    "After choosing the relevant setting needed to begin installation, the Exchange 2013 setup program will now perform readiness checks. Assuming these complete successfully, we'll expect to see just one warning.
    This warning relates to the lack of the Office 2010 Filter Packs, which are not required for installation, and are only required to create Transport Rules for OneNote or Publisher files"
    And this one
    Exchange Server 2013 FAQ: Is the Office Filter Pack Required?
    "The Exchange 2013 pre-requisites page on
    TechNet, at the time of this writing, does include the Office Filter Packs as a step in the preparation of a server for Exchange 2013. What it doesn’t make clear is that they are not required.
    The new Exchange Search already has support for indexing/searching Office file types, as well as a series of other file types including some third party formats such as PDF. You can see a full list
    here.
    So should you install the Office Filter Pack? If you want to stop seeing that warning message, then yes. If you want to take the approach of only installing required software on your servers, then no. Consider also that installing it means potentially having
    to update it later on if there is a bug fix or a security issue."
    The final para above is the approach that I have now taken, but if someone can give me a good reason to install office 2010 filter packs on Ex 2013 sp1 I'll revise my view
    regards

    Just to be clear, Office 2010 is for Windows.  Office 2011 is for Mac.  If you actually are trying to install Office 2010, you'll need to have installed Windows on your Mac either through Boot Camp or in a virtual machine.

  • I have Microsoft Office 2011 Student Edition installed on MacBook Pro; Can I install Microsoft Office Windows 2008 onto Mac without deleting Microsoft Office 2011?

    I have previously installed Microsoft Office Student Edition 2011 on my MacBook Pro.  While installing Microsoft Office 2008 Windows; message prompts to delete Microsoft Office 2011.  Is there a way around this issue?

    Office 2008 was a Mac version. The equvalent Win version is 2007. So there is no "Office 2008 Windows." Which version are your trying to install?
    Are you using Boot Camp to run Win on your MBP and want to install Office for Win there? I can't see that being a problem..
    I do know that the regular version of Office Mac won't run properly if the trial version is present. The installer is set up to look for other versions, resumably to keep the trial version and the regualr from clashing.
    Office Mac 2011 is equiv to Office for Win 2010
    Office Mac 2008   "    "     " Office for Win 2007
    Office Mac 2004   "    "     " Office for Win 2003

  • Installing Microsoft Office on Windows Server 2008 R2

    Can I install Microsoft Office on Windows Server 2008 R2?
    I'm not trying to use this installation from client machines, I just want to use this installation from the same machine.
    It's a Home LAN, I need to develop some applications, but basically, the server should be used as any other machine by any member of the family.
    Each machine will have it's own suite of Office Applications. It's just 3 machines
    Believe you can do it, and you will!!

    Yes, I've done that successfully, but I use the Volume Licensing edition (Professional Plus).

  • 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

    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.)

    Does anyone know how I install Microsoft office onto an I Mac or if I even need it.

    If you need to write or modify documents made with Word, Excel, or Powerpoint, then you need Office. Otherwise, you don't. If you already have it then installation just involves double-clicking on the Office Installer's icon.
