Purchase it. Here's one link to an Amazon site to buy one of the many Office configurations:

You would receive Office on a CD, and need a disk drive for your MacBook Air to access so you could download the software.

OS X doesn't really encourage users to tamper with that folder. Instead, the idea is to use your email application to keep your mail data in order.

How do I get Word for Mac to quit showing up in Boot Camp?

We recently bought a Mac computer and installed Word for Mac on it. After some trial and error, decided for work purposes, unfortunately, it works out better to just use Windows in Boot Camp.
We installed MS Word 2010 in Boot Camp, but now some documents are in Word (Mac) format and others are in MS Word 2010 format. When I go to open a document, I have to tell it which one to open it with, despite choosing MS Word 2010 as the default.
Is there a way to get the Mac version out of boot camp? Do I have to completely uninstall it?
Thank you in advance.

There is no Mac version of Office running in Boot Camp or vice-versa. So I don't quite know what you are asking. You can open any Office for OS X document in Office for Windows, then resave it as a standard Office for Windows document.

How do I download Office for Mac onto my MacBook Pro?

Just downloaded Office for Mac 2011 and having trouble installing it. Any suggestions?

Hi fhough,
welcome to the apple discussions community.
You downloaded the wrong office version.
Here you can download the right version, but keep in mind that you need a license key as well, to activate this version longer than 30 days.
Best,

I have a disc version of microsoft office for mac but a macbook air with no disc drive... how can i get it onto my mac?

Hi I have a macbook air which obviously doesnt come with a disc drive, but have a disc for microsoft office i want to put on...is there a way of downloading it and using the same product key to validate? or can I do it via disc sharing from my old PC? thanks

Download the trial from the Microsoft site, then activate with the code that came with your box set.
And yes, you can use Remote Disc to make use of the DVD unit on your PC.

Will I be able to completely remotely control and access my Office Mac from my Macbook Air at home?

I am in a bit of a dilemma and need some help from the community. I have a Mac Mini running 16GB Ram 2.3 I7 and 1 TB Fusion Drive at my office, it is in Parrallels Coherence mode 100% of the time. I have to run certain Windows apps from home. I am setting my routers at the office to accept NAT-PMP, or Plug and Play so that I can access them.
I have two questions:
1. Will I be able to use back to my mac, or screen share to completely operate and share my mac mini with a new mac book air?
2. I am buying a new MacBook Air, I am under the assumption that I can get the 13" 4gb, I5, with 256 GB and I should be able to quickly access and handle all basic remote access, iphoto stuff and some i movie stuff occassionally.
Am I correct in these assumptions? Any recommendations?
I do have IPAD apps that can also access two of the three windows apps that are critical to my company, but really need a traditional computer with mouse to run them effectively remotely.
Thanks in advance for your help,
John

Yes to both, as long as the Mini is running Mountain Lion or later OS you can use Back to My Mac and Screen Sharing. It will be as though you are seated at the remote Mac. Connections and speed will be determined by Internet conditions.
OS X Mountain Lion: Share your screen using Back to My Mac
It's pretty seamless. Copying files for example is a simple matter of dragging them to or from the Screen Sharing window. If you have multiple users on the Mini you can log in remotely as any user for which you have access, or share the screen interactively with a user's consent.
The only uncertainties are your router, but according to Apple all that should be required is to enable NAT-PMP or UPnP.
I use Apple routers, to eliminate any uncertainty.

Can't open Office for Mac documents on MacBook Air by simply clicking on the document.

On my MacBook Air, normally I can click on Office for Mac documents and they open no problem. However, now if I click on the document nothing happens. I can only open them if I open the application first and go File > Open. I have had this problem before but I can't remember how I solved it.

You may want to select one of those documents in Finder and then use the Finder File menu Get Info (Command I) to see what application it is set to Open With. That can be changed in the same place. Another method is to right-click on the file.

Downloaded MS office for mac 2011 on MacBook Air - ROP

...is it compatible with MS 2013?
If not, is MS 2010 compatible with MS 2013?
Have on-line testing tomorrow in which they advised that the current MS program that they use is MS 2013...

Welcome to Apple Discussions
The curent verison of Office for Mac is 2011 of course they do, they are blind to the fact that the entire world does not use Windows... If you have trouble with the website try to access it via Firefox or Chrome (if Safari doesn't play well on that site) sometimes Firefox or Chrome does a better job interpreting all the non-standard WC3 code Windows sites love to use. Download a copy of each of those browsers in advance an try them out so you are prepared in advance.

I run Outlook for Mac on my Macbook Air (with Yosemite). I need to sync my Outlook calendar with my iPhone and iPad - is there a way or app available ?

Syncing Outlook for Mac calendar with iPhone & iPad

Veranda Magazine is a free app available for iOS devices in the iOS App Store. You then purchase a Veranda Magazine subscription from within the app. In other words, the app itself is free, but the contents are not.
There is no way to duplicate or import this to a Mac. Your Mac runs a totally different operating system.
iBooks can now import to Mac since OS X Mavericks came out about a month ago. But that does not apply to magazines or iOS Newsstand publications.

Windows and Office for Mac in a MacBook Air?

I am planning to buy a new notebook, but I am having trouble deciding between the Macbook Air with 256 GB or 500GB and the MacBook Pro 13''. I am tired of carrying my heavy MacBook Pro 15'' so I want a real shift in portability and I will be running Mail, Safari, Calendar, Contacts, Office for Mac and Windows in Parallels for Explorer, Visio and Project. The issue is that with less money I can buy a MacBook Pro with 750GB but it is heavier and the HD is not solid state. And I am not sure that if I go for the Macbook Air with 256 GB (which is affordable) I will be able to run everything I need.
Someone that may help me decide?

Applications do not take up that much space. Here is a partial list of apps on one of my computers:
And there is more. This Applications folder is about 20gB. There are other files that come with these programs, but they take up much less space.
In sum then, you will be fine with 250 gB, of which you will take away say 30 gB for Parallels and its contents.

How do I restore iphoto on mac mini from macbook air restored on time capsule.

The iphoto library from the macbook air (10.8.5) to the mac mini (10.6.8) from time machine seems to install just fine. When I try to open it I get a message telling me that no apps are available to open. So I attempted to get iphoto '11 from app store. Says I need 10.9 or later to do this. Installing 10.9 search took me to developer help and xcodes and other terms over my head..... I feel it should be easier and I'm missing something. Please help.

I see. I'm downloading now. Will see where this gets me and update. Thank you very much.

Use docs on my iPhone 5 when they were created on MacBook Air using Microsoft Word for Mac

I'm looking for a FREE solution for my iPhone 5. I want to be able to read/edit/save on my iPhone 5 the docs I created on Microsoft Word for Mac on my MacBook Air (running Mountain Lion).
I would like to be able to sync the edited/saved docs back to my MacBook Air and be able to open/edit/save them in Microsoft Word for Mac. I really want to make sure that my edited docs don't become unusuable when put back on my MacBook Air. Thanks!
Can someone give me a solution?

It's recommended to download and install

I'm trying to install Word for Mac, but it doesn't contain enough memory. Any suggestions?, I'm trying to install Word for Mac on my 10.7.4, but there isn't enough memory. Any suggestions?

I need to install Word for Mac on my MacBook OS X Lion 10.7.4, but there are two problems: 1) Microsoft sells only Office, not the individual programs, and 2) I don't have enough memory to do so (2 GB). Any suggesions? I'm currently using Pages, and it's worthless. Should I install more memory and buy Office for Mac? Is there another decent word processing program (preferably downloadable) that will convert my documents to Word?
Thank you so much for your help and suggestions!

I woud buy a 4 GB RAM package and install it. RAM is cheap these days and the additional RAM would also improve the performance of your other programs as well. I have used MS Office for Mac as well as other free downloads, i.e., Open Office and Libre Office. I have found that Open Office anf Libre Office perform just as well as MS Office and, because they are a free download also save you money. Another advantage is that they also contain a database, which MS Office doesn't have. They allow you to save files in MS format as well as standard text format. I ave also used Pages and feel it is satisfactory, although a little clunky to use. If you feel MS Office is the only program for you, then buy it and install it. You really should consider adding the additional RAM as it will improve the performance of all your applications.
