  • How can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

    how can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

    What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
    You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
    If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
    But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
    Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
    MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
    (I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...)

  • How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
    If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
    This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
    If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
    If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.

    How can I download Micosoft Office 2008 for Mac on my new Macbook Air? I have the DVD and product key

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have two options:
    1. If you have another Mac or PC, use Remote Disc to install it on your Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
    2. Buy an external optical drive and use it to install Microsoft Office.
    Both options work correctly. If you are going to use the optical drive once, use Remote Disc, but it will be much slower than using an optical drive connected to the computer

  • How can I delete EVERY THING off my Mac and have it like new?

    There are sites that I've viewed and programs I have downloaded that I NEED to delete completely from my computer!! Ie: Friends telling me that a program is free and has no viruses, but it does! Sites forwarded that are supposed sfw, but are not!!
    I would like to DELETE EVERY THING off the computer and have it be like new.
    I remember on my Dell PC if I hit f8 or f11 (can't remember which one) a screen would appear and if I chose option "Dell Factory Image Restore" it would DELETE EVERY THING off of the computer and have it like new - as if you just got it from Dell.
    Is there anything like that for Macs?
    Whether it be some where on the computer already?
    Or if it's with the CDs that came with the Mac?

  • How can i install microsoft office on my Mac mini from a CD-rom ?

    I recently bought a Mac mini and a microsoft Office on a CD-Rom.
    But i can't find anywhere i can insert the Cd-Rom in order to install the software... How can i do please ?

    Much easier than the above (from Ms website):
    Option 1: Convert your Office for Mac 2011 trial. To convert a trial version, you must have a valid product key. The product key will convert your trial into a fully licensed version of Office for Mac.
    Locate the 25-character product key in your product package or confirmation email.
    Open any Office for Mac application, like Word, PowerPoint, or Excel.
    On the first screen of the Microsoft Office Setup Assistant, click Enter your Product Key.
    Enter your product key and complete the installation instructions.
    Option 2: If you have not previously installed the trial version, you can download Office for Mac from the Office for Mac website. To download, install, and activate the software you must have a valid Office 2011 product key.
    Locate your 25-character product key found in your product package or confirmation email.
    Go to www.officeformac.com/download
    Click Get Started to start the download process.
    When prompted, enter your 25-character product key and select your product language.
    When prompted, sign in with your Windows Live ID or sign up and create a new Windows Live ID account.
    After you enter your Windows Live ID, you will see a link to download the software. (You will also receive a confirmation email with a link to your My Account page if you prefer to wait and download your software at a later time.)
    Click Download Now to start the download.
    Save the file to your desktop. Do not change the file name.
    When the download is complete, double-click the .dmg file icon on your desktop. This opens the Installer application in Mac OS X.
    Follow the instructions in the installer screens to complete your installation.

  • How can I delete all the data in Mac pro and install the latest version of OSX Mavericks?

    Hi,
    I want to know why my mac become slow and so, I want to data and system and I want to install the latest version OS X Mcvericks. How can I do?
    Thanks

    Open the App Store app:
    And, choose Mavericks:
    Then download and run the installer. Tip: It would be a good idea to quit the installer before proceding with the install, so that you can copy it or move it to location outside of your Applications folder. That way the installer won't be deleted after you run it.
    If you don't have a backup of your current Lion partition, the only way that you can do a clean install is to erase that partition, thus losing all of your data.

  • How can i delete stock photos from my Mac that are on my iPhone?

    When I first synced my iPhone 4S to my iTunes on my macbook pro, I got a bunch of stock photos and icons used on my computers. I cannot delete them on my iPhone like you would delete a normal photo; the option to delete the photos is disabled,
    The pictures take up a lot of space and I want to get rid of them.
    I just updated to iOS7 and my iTunes has not been updated lately.
    There are 488 of these photos and they are in an album called "last import- from my mac"

    I have over 6GB of data taken up by old photos that I do not need. I can not figure out how to delete them because I downloaded them to my iphone from my ipod. is there a way to delete them without restoring my phone?
    Do you mean that you synced them from iTunes to your iPhone?  If so, you have to sync to iTunes again and change the selected synced photos.

  • How can I delete a app from the Mac App Store completely?

    I have a apllication which had a error. I delete it and download the app from the Mac App Store again, but the error wasn't delete. My iMac had stored it and the Error wasn't deleted so I can't youse the app.
    What can I do to delete the app complete?
    Please answer.

    If your App was faulty in some way you should write to iTunes support.   If you simply want to delete it, most Apps carry uninstall (not delete) instructions.
    Incidentally, I believe you cannot delete the record of your purchase from iTunes.   That will always stay on your purchases list and be marked with a dark grey square as INSTALL..

  • Why can i load open office to my Mac but not my iPad?

    trying to get a good office suite software onto my iPad, but cannot load OpenOffice to it, but i can to my Mac.  Safari says it cannot download it.  Why not?

    You can not download ANYTHING to your iPad from Safari.  iOS is completely different than the OS on your computer.  It is a closed and extremely protected OS.  You can look for office productivity tools in the App Store, like Pages or Numbers (One for Word documents, the other for Excel type spreadsheets), but they are iOS apps and only operate on your iPad.

  • How can i delete shared gmail calendars on my Mac's calendar?

    Hello,
    My company's email, calendar, etc is set up with the Google Apps. I created a Gmail account in my Mac (Running Yosemite) so I could sync the Calendar.
    In the Gmail calendar, you can view calendars from teammates additional to your own to make life easier when setting up meetings, etc. Every time I add a teammate's calendar in Gmail, that new calendar is also synced in my Mac. Initially it was pretty cool, but what has happened now is that even though I delete the additional calendars in Gmail, these deletions are not replicated to my Mac, so I'm having to handle about 10 calendars and every time these other people receive invitations I have them on my Mac. The most I can do is "unselect" them in my Mac calendar but eventually somehow they get activated or "selected" again. Below a picture of what I see in my Mac.
    How can I delete these calendars on my Mac?
    Thanks in advanced for the help!

    Welcome to the Apple communities.
    I'm not all that sure that I fully understand your question. However if you are trying to delete the groups on the left-hand side of your address book, then simply click on them once to highlight them and use the delete key on your keyboard to delete them.
    Any contacts within those groups will stay in your main account and will not be deleted along with the group heading.
