How do i get MS Office look sharper to a retina display?

My MS Office 2011 doesn't look good, it ain't retina.
Anybody knows if or when a update will come and support retina displays?
or is there a

I don't know anyone who has achieved a decent-looking MS Office display using a rMBP. Other apps use Apple's text rendering engine while MS uses its own, apparently (which is why the other 'office' apps look so good).
Give one of them a shot - from what I understand, both render wonderful looking text and menus/icons while MS Office has fuzzy toolbars and text.

  • How do I download Microsoft Office for my macbook pro retina display without a disc drive

    I can't seem to find anywhere to purchase a downloadable version of Microsoft Office online. Is there one out there? I need to get Office on my computer but don't feel like purchasing the external disc drive. Is there any way around this?

    wj's link works very well...I downloaded my Office '11 from MS a year ago without a hitch.  Just follow his link and have a credit card handy

  • How can I get Microsoft Office onto my Macbook Pro?

    I Need Microsoft word and Powerpoint for my Macbook. I have the 2008 version on CD but I have no disk drive on my Laptop....how do I go about installing it? Should I just bring it into the Apple Store and get them to install it?

    You could try seeing if your local Apple Store would allow you to use an external drive to install Office 2008... it's no longer available as a digital download that I can find (only 2011 -> http://www.microsoft.com/mac/office-2011-digital-download).
    2008 is going to look bad on a Retina display - if you want Retina display capabilities, you'll have to upgrade the the latest version fo 2011.

  • When I try to get the key code for office it tells me its already been used.  My mac had a new hard drive in its first year, could it be because of this?  How can I get the office I've paid for but never used?

    Assuming you're burning data disks, not audio CDs, just drag the songs from the disk into the iTunes window.

  • How do I get an Office Jet 6500A to print on Card stock?

    How do I get an Office Jet 6500A to print on card stock. It pushes the card stock through the printer but will not print and tells me I have not selected the right print media. There is no selection for card stock.  I have tried every selection.  I assume there are other media definitions that can be downloaded but they certainly are not apparent.  I have been doing this job on all my other HP printers for years.  Suddenly this printer balks.

    Hi,
    Page #22 of the manual says (must be the same as photo paper ?):
    To load cards and photo paper
    1. Lift the output tray.
    2. Slide the paper width guide out as far as possible.
    3. Insert the media print-side down along the right of the main tray. Make sure the media aligns with the right and back edges of the tray and does not exceed the line marking in the tray. If the photo paper has a tab along one edge, make sure the tab is pointing towards the front of the printer.
    4. Slide the media guides in the tray to adjust them for the media size that you have loaded.
    5. Lower the output tray.
    6. Pull out the tray extender.
    And the manual is : h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02519721.pdf
    Regards.

  • How do I get prints to look as good as on screen?

    How do I get prints to look as good as on screen?
    Do apple recommend a printer?

    I recognise this but the prints never look as good as they do on the screen why is this? They are always lighter, darker and just not as punchy. It's very inconsistent.
    Do apple recommend a printer that replicates exactly what's on the screen?

  • I think the io7 icons looks cheap how do I get my old look back

    I think the io7 icons look cheap.  How do I get my old look back?

    I wouldn't have upgraded if I had the choice. I saw the new look months ago and hated it. I even emailed Apple back then, like they even read what customers want anyway! I started using my iPad this morning to find that several apps didn't work, including my mobile banking app. I hate the upgrade, but had no choice if I wanted to use the apps I use most. Apple is forcing everyone to "upgrade" to its tacky new look. I want detail and color on my iPad. The retina display does not make the new stick figure drawing that my 5 year old could do look any better. It's not a cleaner, more streamlined look. It's a cheap and tacky look!

  • When syncing my ipod, how do I get it to look at external drives for music stored them?  It just tells me it can't find something and gives me no option to tell it where it is located.

    Hi SouthMountainSound,
    It sounds like the tracks may be missing from your iTunes library. When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. If it cannot be located, this may cause the issue of not being copied to your iPod. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • 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.

  • I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)?

    I have a MS Office for Mac CD, how do I install the software onto my MacBook Pro (Retina Display)? It does not have a CD drive.

    If all else fails, try this.  i used to do it all the time before. might or might not work with the new office.
    if you have access to another computer with a cd/dvd rom, copy the entire contents of the cd on a thumb drive.
    insert the thumb drive in your MB and do the install from there.
    However, if you have the newer version of MS Office, Bandit's suggestion is much better.

  • How can I Upload Pictures, from my Mac Book Pro Retina Display with Mountain Lion OS? Tried but it gets as far asi  pictures but does not open?

    How can I Upload Pictures, from my Mac Book Pro Retina Display with Mountain Lion OS? Tried but it gets as far as i pictures but does not open?

    This is not necessarily 100% correct at the current time.
    As Dropbox is encouraging people to set it up for automatic uploading of photos they gradually increment your space as you load more pictures for free at the current time.
    You do start with a fixed 2 GB but if you upload photos you will be awarded more free space.
    You can also open a free account with Flickr - you may have some upload limits per day but you can upload pictures there.
