Does Office 2004 Student Teacher edition work well with our new MBP?

Hello All,
I have an older copy of MS Office 2004 for Mac: Student/teacher. Does it run well on our new MBP's?
I also run iWork 09' but need Office for work. I have read online that the newest MS Office is not that good.
Thanks

Hi,Office 2004 is designed for PowerPC processors, so you have to use Rossetta to have it work with the new mbp, as it is based on Intel processors, and the performance may not be very satisfactory.
Office 2008 is a Universal application and runs well on Intel Macs.

  • Upgrading to OS10.9.2 I lost my Office 2004 Student Teacher program.  Can I reinstall Office or does 9.2 upgrade no longer supports 2006 Student Teacher?  Tnx,

    When upgrading from OS 10.8.6 to 10.9.2 I lost my MS Office 2004 Student Teacher editon software. 
    This included Word, Excel, Power Point and Entourage.
    Is this because 9.2 does not support this older Office program?  Do I need to up grade Office or do I just need to reinstall 2004 Office.
    I no longer can enter any of my spreadsheets and its a disaster for me so far. 
    Can anyone ease my mind?  Thanks.  Jack

    Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
    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.)

  • We have moved to another city and we would like to communicate to our friends and family back home via Skype. What webcams work well with our home computer, a vintage 2005 Mac mini with Mac OS X, version 10.5.8?

    We have moved to another city and we would like to communicate to our friends and family back home via Skype. What webcams work well with our home computer, a vintage 2005 Mac mini with Mac OS X, version 10.5.8?

    You 2005 mini shipped with a PowerPC G4 CPU ranging between 1.25 and 1.5 (late sept 2005) Ghz. PowerPC is not Intel. This mini will not run current releases of Skype for the following reasons:
    The current version of Skype claims support for OS X 10.5.8 -- but wants a 1Ghz Intel processor just for voice calls. Their recommendation for video calls is a 1.8Ghz Core 2 Duo Intel CPU and a broadband connection of at least, 4Mbps down and 512Kbps up. Skype requirements.

  • Does APC's PowerChute V1.34 work well with Tiger?

    Has anyone loaded APC's PowerChute personal edition V1.34 software for Mac?
    Does it work well with Tiger/Leopard or cause problems?

    Although I installed the APC PowerChute 1.3.4 (the version that supports Intel-based Macs, which is what I have), I ended up trying to use the 'Energy Saver' tab-> UPS (settings) -> UPS.
    In there, I set it to have the computer :
    1) Shutdown the computer when it has been on UPS power for : 5 mins
    2) Shutdown the computer when the time left on UPS power is : 15 mins
    3) Shutdown the computer when the UPS power level drops to : 70%
    I unplugged the UPS from the wall and watched the timer tick down, and the battery capacity drain... it was unplugged for well over 10 mins (criteria 1 should have fired, but didn't), it went down below 10 mins left on UPS, based on the tool bar indicator (criteria 2 should have fired, but didn't), it went down to about 45% full (criteria 3 should have fired).
    Net result, I didn't wait for the Mac to crash, eventually, I lost in the game of chicken, and plugged the UPS back into the wall, with about 7 minutes of UPS time, 40% of UPS Battery Level, and having unplugged the UPS for about 10 minutes +.
    Why is the Mac not shutting down ?
    I do have the cable plugged into the UPS (APC UPS ES 650 G), and the other end is plugged into the USB port (I'm guessing I have that connected right, otherwise, the tab wouldn't show up in Energy Saver, and I wouldn't have the information about the UPS status available to me on the Mac).
    Help ?
    Thanks,
    Andy

  • Student/teacher edition CS5 re-install on new OS

    Purchased student/teacher edition of CS5 a couple of years ago.  Updated computer from Windows XP to Windows 7 and tried to re-install CS5.  Get error message "The serial number is not valid for this product."  Help?!

    How did you upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7?  Did you format the computer and then install Windows 7?  Also do you have any other Adobe Creative Software installed on your computer?

  • Does the Panasonic AG-HMC150 AVCHD work well with FCE?

    My buying finger is poised over the "send" button so that I can buy a Panasonic AG-AMC150 AVCHD camcorder, but I read a couple of reviews which have given me pause.
    One says that FCE does not work well with this camcorder and I need a REaLLY powerful Mac or I am sunk.
    Yet another says that working with this 'corder's AVCHD and FCE is a pain in the neck.
    A little first hand knowledge would be an enormous help. Thank you.
    (PS They did not use the words 'sunk' or 'neck.')

    Sasha, once again, thank you.
    No questions, but for the sake of completeness, and to assist those who may read this thread, let me make a couple of comments.
    I like this camcorder, because of its features and price, and I am about to buy it. If I were doing event work, such as weddings, I don't think I would. I make family documentaries and scripted movies, so a shoulder mount is not important to me.
    I like to buy from Amazon. They sported a low price and I have always had an excellent experience with them. Their supplier is Willoughby's whom I looked up on Sellerratings.com. The reviews I read there led me to decide to buy nothing else from Willoughby's, just the camera, and to examine it carefully when it arrives to make sure that it is in its original sealed packing. I recommend that you check Sellerratings.com before placing an order, too. I trust Amazon, but I am sending off my order with some trepidation. I shall buy a larger battery and some SD cards elsewhere. (The battery that comes withe the camcorder seems to be universally despised.)
    Beware of the reviews on the Amazon site. A large number of them, mostly mis-spelled, are, to me anyway, suspiciously rapturous. No camcorder is that good. One reviewer said that the HMC150 changed his life. Really?
    The Panasonic site has a wealth of detail about this camcorder.
    I found some good and useful info on YouTube, too, particularly one video which showed a videographer using the this camcorder and explaining his set-up procedures step by step.
    Much about requirements and compatability can be seen in this thread. Thank you Sasha
    OK That is enough. Hope this was of some help.

  • Does a belkin pre-n router work well with a macbook?

    Hello, I have a macbook and am going to purchase a wireless router. I've been looking at the belkin pre-n router and have read some great reviews, but none used a mac to test the router. So does anyone have experience with this router and if so, would you recommend it? (or does anyone recommend a different router?) Thanks.

    Using a MacBook you would not gain any of the alleged benefits of using a pre-n router.
    Performance wise, a MacBook would work just as well with any wifi certified 802.11g wireless router.

  • My 2006 Imac running 10.4.11 is not working well with my new apple keyboard

    just bought a new apple keyboard - wired full keyboard - The Funtion keys will not respond as marked.
    for example, the f12 key, marked Volume up, brings up my dashboard.  
    The only function keys that I can change are f1 and f2.
    In the keyboard shortcut of Preference, there is not even a listing for volume.
    And no, I am not going to update my OS beyond 10.4.11
    Help

    It's a USB keyboard it should be fine. I have a similar model that works on 10.5.
    If it doesn't work you can almost certainly return it (local sales laws apply, so check those).
    You could also go to an Apple Store (or any other PC store) & ask them if it could work & ask if it doesn't work can it be returned?
    You can search Ebay or Amazon etc for a keyboard that says it supports 10.4, however since that OS is also 10 years old not many manufactures are willing to test an ancient OS that not many people use anymore.
    Another option is to find a second hand keyboard from the same era of Mac. Frankly that would be 'icky if it has been used.
    Alternately you could try fixing or cleaning yours, but these things don't last forever.
    Keyboards & mice generally work.

  • Will a Lenovo LI2821 work well with a new Mac Pro?

    I'd like a 4k monitor or better for my new Mac Pro Computer. I'd also like it to have a Web Cam. I found the Lenovo LI2821... but I'm concerned because it is much cheaper than other monitors. Anyone have experience (or things I should be aware of )with this monitor and the new Mac Pro?

    The image is display through an LCD screen on all non-plasma screens. LED refers to the backlight source. In the past florescent lights was used but now better one have LED backlight like the LG.
    On drawback of yours is that the screen type is TN which is old technology
    IPS (In-plane switching) is a screen technology used for liquid crystal displays (LCDs). It was designed to solve the main limitations of the twisted nematic field effect (TN) matrix LCDs in the late 1980s, such as relatively high response time, strong viewing angle dependence and low-quality color reproduction.

  • MS Office Student/Teacher Edition -- Entourage

    Does anyone know if the MS Office Entourage Student/Teacher edition automatically puts a a line at the end of an email stating something like, "Sent using Entourage Student Teacher Edition." I'm hoping not.

    Hi Dave!
    Office for Mac is a Microsoft product and not an Apple product. You'll get better responses if you post in a forum dedicated to Office or Entourage rather than this one, which is dedicated to Mac and Windows compatibility. Microsoft hosts a couple of newsgroups for these:
    <http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.mac.office>
    <http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.mac.office.entourage>

  • Does the iphone 3gs works well with ios 5

    I need to buy an iphone 3gs for my daughter and need to know if it works well with the new IOS 5 or what ?

    I have the nearly the same problem.
    My problem is exactly that the music will play, but not over the internal loud speakers.
    When in plug in the earphones i will hear the music.
    Also the loud speakers would be fine, because the loudspeakers would work when i make a hands free phone call.
    There must be a bug in the ios 5.1.
    I also had a phenomen when I was connected in my local network, I have some airport express, I see these airport express device, the dock connector, but not the internal speaker or the iphone to select as an sound source.
    And i tried to make a reset. Doesn't help.
    Maybe i try next to set back the phone to manufacturer settings and restore it.

  • Does MBP run Microsoft Student & Teacher Edition 2004?

    i would like to ask if MBP runs Microsoft Student & Teacher Edition 2004?
    Thnx

    If you mean the OS X version of the student & teacher
    MS Office, then yes, it runs all versions of MS
    Office 2004 for OS X.
    The only application in MS Office 2004 that DOESN'T RUN in the Intel macs is Virtual PC which comes with some versions of MS Office 2004. I think it's the "Professional" edition.

  • Does the student teacher edition of photoshop and premiere elements 13 have to be renewed yearly?

    Does the student teacher edition of photoshop and premiere elements 13 have to be renewed yearly?

    that depends whether you were using the subscription cc version or the perpetual license version.
    if you can open, for example,  pse, click help and if you see activate/deactivate you have the perpetual license version and do not need to renew.  if you see sign in/sign out, you have the subscription version and will need to maintain your subscription to continue to use your cc program(s).
