How could I repair Microsoft office?

Since I had upgraded to the Lion my Microsoft Office software is no longer supported.

There is an upgrade to Microsoft Office 2011 available for Macs; I assume you have MS Office 2004.
Microsoft Office's 2011 version is compatible with Lion and presumably either works with Mountain Lion or an update will make it so. The problem with this approach is that Office 2011 will "convert" your earlier data files and there lies the rub! For example, I have the need to weekly open a chart created in Excel 2004, but Excel 2011 trashes the chart in its "conversion."
So I have approached the overall problem differently.
The reason your applications do not work in Mountain Lion is that they were written for the older PowerPC CPU that all Macs used up to 2006. When Apple made its transition to the Intel CPU, they licensed software that they included in all versions of OS X (from Tiger to Leopard and optionally, Snow Leopard) called Rosetta.
Rosetta miraculously allows PowerPC applications to work on the Intel processor transparently; you do not know it is even present.
The problem is that after 6 years of the transition, Apple's license to use the underlying software expired for OS X Lion and all version thereafter (and it is doubtful that the current owner of the software, IBM, would relicense it, even if Apple were inclined to do so).
So for those of use that need to run Lion, I have offered the option to install Snow Leopard (with Rosetta) into Parallels 7:

And now Mountain Lion:

How can I get Microsoft office onto my Macbook Air?

I need to use Microsoft office instead of Pages and Keynote because they are not compatible with my teacher's files. However my macbook air does not have the cd/dvd slot so how could I get Microsoft office onto my macbook? Help is appreciated! I really need it for my classes!!!!

You have a couple of options.
1) Buy a external DVD drive that connects by USB port. Any brand will work on your Mac. It doesn't have to have the Apple name on it for it to work. Most cost around $30.
2) If you have the office DVD take it to a Mac that has a DVD drive and copy the DVD contents to a USB thumb drive then install from that thumb drive.
3) Fine the DMG download of the office version you have.
Note that only Office 2008 and the newest 2011 will work on a Mac running Lion or Mt Lion. The older 2004 version won't install on newer Mac computers.

How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro Mac OSX version for free. Please help me!

How can I download Microsoft office excel for my MacBook Pro for free?

You can't. Excel is a commercial product sold by Microsoft in an Office "package" and not as a stand-alone product.
If you need to be able to open and save Excel documents on your Mac, however, you could try the free LibreOffice.

I am going to buy a MacBook Pro online. How do I organise Microsoft Office For Mac to load onto my new MacBook?

I am going to buy a MacBook Pro 15-inch online. How do I purchase Microsoft Office For Mac to load onto my new MacBook? Can I order this through the Apple website or do I have to go into an Apple Store? Thank You

Jack, you can order online from Apple. Their price right now for MS Office 2011 Mac Home/Student Edition is $150 US. They might put it on your computer but it is very easy to do it yourself.
You could also order rthe same MS Office for Mac online from another retailer. Ex.: OWC (http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/software/)
& they have discounted right now for $110 US. I've gotten may products from them and they are easy to deal with & have good prices/products.
There are other retailers, of course, and sometimes I find good prices at the others as well.
Enjoy the new MacBook. And have a good New Year.

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...)

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.

How can I transfer Microsoft office from my old macbook pro to macbook air

how can I transfer microsoft office from macbook pro to macbook air?

Assuming you have the 2011 version the easiest way is go to Microsoft's Web site and download Mac Office 2011 onto your MacBook Air and then run it. If you have the 2008 (or the 2011) version on disc you can turn on DVD sharing in the Sharing control panel of your MBP and install it by remotely sharing your MBP's DVD.
Since Microsoft uses activation when you start Office on the new computer if you use the same activation code as you used on the MBP you'll probably get a message to call Microsoft. Do so and just explain that you got a new computer.

How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad

How do I load microsoft office and pdf files onto an Ipad?

You can email them, you can use DropBox, SugarSync or another cloud service or you can use iOS file sharing.
But in all cases you need an app on the iPad that will open and save those types of files. iBooks, Adobe Readers, Good Reader and Save 2 PDF will all save PDF files.
Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro and the Apple iWorks apps will open and save the MS office files. You can Google - "iPad apps that are compatible with Microsoft Office files" and you will find other alternatives - or search the app store for more.
You can read this as well for some instruction on getting those files onto an iPad.

How can i open microsoft office word documents on my ipad 4 and edit it.

How can i open microsoft office word documents on my ipad 4 and edit it. How to transfer my scaned documents on it

There are a number of apps that are compatible with Office documents. Apple makes iOS versions of their own iWork apps (Pages, Keynote, Numbers) that are available free if you purchase a new iOS device and that can be purchased separately for older devices. There are also 3rd party combined suites that cost less than the separate Apple apps. Ones often recommended include Documents 2 Go, Quickoffice and Office2 HD.
If you can accept needing a network connection whenever you want to use the apps and have an Office 365 subscription, Microsoft has just released their Office Mobile app, though it has significant limitations. Or a server-based solution such as CloudOn might be an option for you.
Regards.
