Does Microsoft Office 2011 work under Yosemite?

I use Microsoft Word for college. I prefer to use Word instead of Pages.

It is hardware dependent. I run Yosemite on a MacBook Pro (late 2008) with the latest version of Office 365 and it is fine (I still loathe Outlook). However my more recent MacBook Air is less than happy with Office 365 (I guess because it has taste) and will work OK with Word and Excel, but not with Outlook.

The latest OS is 10.8.2. You've posted in the Lion (OS 10.7.x) forum.

Different operating systems canNOT be the "same setup."
In my original installation of Office 2011 on a 2007 MBP with OS 10.6.8, I followed the guidelines Tips for a Successful Install. In launching Outlook 2011 for the first time, it recognized that I had Entourage 2004 and I was chose the option to have all the data transferred to Outlook 2011. While that was well over a year ago, I'm fairly certain that I did not need to manually set up my multitude of existing email accounts. Subsequently, I've added new accounts. A couple of months ago, I got a new mid-2012 MBP (non-retina) with OS 10.7.4. I used Pondini's advice , which I found here in the Apple Support Community for OS 10.7, to setup the new MBP from the old MBP with Setup Assistant. Afterwards, I manually installed my applications. I am certain that I did not need to manually setup any email accounts when I launched Outlook 2011.
That said, if you did not fix the problem that you were experiencing with Office 2008 (and more specifically Entourgage 2008) but migrated that data to your new rMBR, then your problem may lie within the old data. You have not provided information on how you installed Office 2011, if your setup of Outlook is as new or datea ported from Entourage, and what troubleshooting steps you have tried. As Kurt Lang suggested, the Microsoft Community would be best with your specific issues as stated.

Does microsoft office 2011 work with mountain lion?

Was wondering if Microsoft Office 2011 works with Mountain Lion since the 1997 version does not.

Okay, I will try that. It looks like I have installed it twice already. An obvious novice. I will do it again though.

Does microsoft office 2011 work well on a mac mini?

I was thinking of buying Pages and Numbers from the App Store but saw that most of the reviews were negative. Should I just get Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac?

Those Pages v5 reviews are negative for a reason.
If you have to exchange documents in a corporate, or educational setting where MS Office is used, then you probably should create native Word .doc/x content in Office for Mac 2011. Alternatively, you might also look at the free LibreOffice suite. It is far more comprehensive than Pages, and gets the .doc/x export done right.
Office for Mac 2011, or LibreOffice work just fine on a Mac Mini. There are several Microsoft updates available for Office for Mac 2011 — be sure to install them.

A 4 year old Macbook Pro should run Lion. Unless its a CoreDue and not a Core2Duo. Remember that PPC computers can not even run Snow Leopard. This was when Apple announced that support for PPC programs would be phased out. Office 2004 is almost 8 years old now. Twice as old as your computer you say needs to be replaced. I can't believe people rush in to install a new system without doing a little bit of research, and the dropping of Rosetta to run old PPC programs was well advertised if you read up on Lion, as was the introduction of Mission Control and Versions. I even read up about them, and I'm not a professional like some who come here. May pay to remember to research in future releases.
Good Luck

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.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Tested, works fine.

If you mean Office 2004, no.

Why does microsoft office stop working after OS lion

I just recently downloaded OS Lion 10.7.3 and now I can't use my Microsoft Office suite. I get a error message "You can't open the application Microsoft Word because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."

Office 2008 and 2011 both work with Lion.
You are likely running Office 2004 which is no longer supported on Lion.

Microsoft Office 2011 crashes under 10.9 Mavericks - solved

1. New machine running 10.9 (Mavericks).
2. Migrated a user from another machine also running Mavericks; that had Office 2008 and Office 2011 installed and (at least Office 2011) was running fine.
3. On the new machine, Word launched and then crashed immediately, never fully loading.
4. Tried the updaters 1410 and 1439. Installation failed with no suitable destination found - they could not be installed because of missing components.
5. Followed procedure to completely uninstall Office (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768), removing Office 2008, 2011, Messenger.
6. Ran Office 2011 installer. Again, Word would not load.
7. Tried the updaters 1410 and 1439. Installation failed with no suitable destination found - they could not be installed because of missing components.
8. (As it turns out, steps 5, 6, 7 might have been unnecessary).
9. Created a new user. Office ran!
10. Update 1439 was accepted and the update ran.
11. Switched back to the original user; all OK.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Kevin

Does Microsoft Office 2008 work on a Macbook air that I bought January 2013?

I have an old mac and wanted to transfer microsoft office across to my new one but i've read that version 2008 might not work.
I don't want to use migration assistant if it isn't going to work as it's pointless.
I bought my macbook air this January (2013).

Migration Assistant will create a new user with the files transferred from an older computer. As you only want to transfer applications, if you select only applications to be transferred, no user will be created. However, if you can, I think that the best way is to install Office from the DVD, buying an external optical drive for your Mac or using Remote Disc > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
