How do I install office 2013 on my iMac via windows 8.1 parallels 9?

I recently bought a copy of Windows 8.1, Microsoft Office 2013 and Parallels Desktop 9 for Mac.
I wanted to install a Windows partition on my Mac so that I could run MS Office 2013 on a virtual machine.
I set up the VM, and everything was looking fine and worked smoothly.
Then, when I inserted the MS Office 2013 disk into the CD drive, an error message showed up saying that Windows cannot find C;/Program files/Microsoft Office 15/ClientX86/integratedoffice.exe'.  Make sure you've typed the name correctly, then try again.
I tried to install MS Office 2013 many times but didn't work.
Does anyone know how to overcome this issue?
Thanks.

Disable the autorun with a right click on the CD icon on the drive. and run the installer manually from the disc.

    After setting up your new PC, you can install Offcie 2013 on new PC. Then contact the activation center to transfer to your new PC:

  • How do I install Tiger on a G3 iMac via Firewire?

    I want to install Tiger on to my slot loading (CD drive) iMac, via my DVD drive-equipped Powerbook and Firewire.
    But how do I put both computers in Firewire 'target mode' to do this?

    Turn them both off, connect a 6-pin FireWire cable between them.
    Start up the PowerBook (with the mains adapter plugged in) and allow it to complete.
    Insert the installer DVD and restart from the "Install OS X" alias on the DVD, allow to complete restart again.
    Start the iMac with the T key held down and you should get moving FW symbols on it's screen and it's hard drive will mount on the PowerBook.
    Select the iMac's hard drive from the installer and complete install. The system will then reboot to the new install on the iMac.
    Shut down the iMac and the PowerBook, disconnect the cable and reboot both. You may want to hold down the option key on the PowerBook and select it's internal drive as the startup disk. You can do this in system prefs after booting anyway - I've seen this setting get confused on some target installs.
    Good luck!

  • How to install office 2013 professional plus

    Dear;
    I wonder how to install office 2013 professional plus in IMAC.
    I use bootcamp to install windows 8 and then install office 2013 professional plus?

    It does not run on Macs, only on Windows. So, yes, you would need to install Windows on your computer or:
    Get 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.
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office:

  • How to uninstall Office 2010 32 bit and install Office 2013 64 bit

    Hi Everyone,
    I am rather new to SCCM.  I have setup a SCCM 2012 SP1 system.  I am now trying to setup an Application where it will install Office 2013 64 bit.  Everything seemed to go smoothly until I tried testing it.  I received an error that I
    cannot install the 64 bit version of Office 2013 because Office 2010 32 bit is already installed.
    I tried to modify the MSP where it will uninstall Office 2010 before installing Office 2013 but apparently as soon as it starts it checks for the 32 bit installation and exits when it finds it.
    Could someone give me a detailed solution (since I am new to SCCM)?

    While referring to older versions of office I think this link may apply: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f255e17d-4e1f-4231-8a88-d63f41c83c52/how-to-automatcally-uninstall-office-2007-32-bit-for-installation-of-office-2010-64-bit?forum=officesetupdeployprevious
    Also you might create an office 2010 package, with an uninstall program that removes it.
    Then in your office 2013 package make the uninstall for 2010 to be run first. 

  • Office Add-In Not Working After Installing Office 2013

    I just installed Office 2013 on my Windows 7 Pro desktop with Acrobat X Pro installed and all of the Office Add-In's went away.  I find them very useful and would like to know how I can get them working again. Thanks.

    I wonder why Acrobat X is not compatible with Office 2013. Acrobat X was released late 2010, Office 2013 ca. two years later.
    I think you answered your own question.
    I don't want to buy an update to Acrobat XI for compatibility reasons only.
    While you may not want to buy an upgrade for compatibility reasons, this is one of the main reasons why people do pay for upgrades. After all, you paid for Office 2013! Does this mean that only Microsoft should get money for software, everyone one else should run around to support their incompatible changes for nothing?
    I just want that I can call the PDFmaker out of my Office applications. What is the problem?
    Isn't it clear?

  • We can't install Office 2013 64-bit on a Win 7 PC that had a 32-bit version of Office

    We have a development PC running Windows 7 64-bit. This PC has been around for a while, and way back had various 32-bit versions of Office installed, starting with Office 2003 through 2010. Those versions were uninstalled and Office 2013 Pro
    Plus 32-bit was the latest version installed. That version was uninstalled using Revo Uninstaller then the registry was cleaned using JV16 to make sure leftover junk from the prior 32 bit version(s) was removed so we could install Office 2013 x64
    Pro Plus, which we now need for testing. It won't install because the installer sees something left over from the prior 32 bit version(s). We can't wipe the PC and start over; it has special sensor hardware and software that we can't move to a different PC
    and we're on a tight timeline. We searched the registry and the Program Files (x86) folder and subfolders for anything left over from Office without any luck. The error message reads:
    We can't install the 64-bit version of Office because we found the following 32-bit
    programs on your PC:
    Please uninstall all 32-bit Office programs, then try reinstalling 64-bit Office.
    Note that the error message doesn't list the name(s) of any "32-bit programs on your PC" in the error message.
    Anybody have an idea how to force an installation of 64-bit Office 2013 Pro Plus?

    these tips will help you clean ALL of the bits and pieces of various Office versions you mentioned.
    It is not just Office, there are a few other 32 bit MS applications that may block 64 bit installations:
    Blocking and nonblocking Office applications in 64-bit installations
    If 32-bit Office applications are installed on a computer, a 64-bit Office 2010 installation is blocked by default. The following section (Applications that block a 64-bit
    Office 2010 installation) lists the applications that block a 64-bit Office 2010 installation. The next section (Applications that do not block a 64-bit Office 2010
    installation) lists exceptions; that is, applications that do not block the installation. In such cases, installation of 64-bit Office proceeds even if the listed 32-bit applications are installed on the computer.
    Applications that block a 64-bit Office 2010 installation
    The following applications block a 64-bit Office 2010 installation:
    Microsoft Office Excel Viewer
    Access database engine of Microsoft Access 2010
    Microsoft Office 2010 (Click-to-run)
    Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system
    Applications that do not block a 64-bit Office 2010 installation
    The following applications do not block a 64-bit Office 2010 installation:
    Microsoft Visual Studio Web Authoring Component 2007

  • Mail x64 Control Panel Broken, Can't Install Office 2013 SP1 to Fix It - HELP NEEDED

    I have the dreaded broken Mail x64 Control Panel that doesn't work after installing Office 2013 Home and Business on a Windows 8.1 Pro computer.  This was a fresh installation, yet Microsoft still has an ancient disk image on their Office.com website
    for download.  The version is 15.0.4433.1507.  It's from 2012!  I don't understand the purpose of having people download something if you are not even going to keep it up to date, and have them download programs which you know are broken. 
    Strike 1.
    Another thread said to update Office 2013.  Easier said than done.  Windows Update won't do it, even if Windows Update is manually told to search for updates.  Strike 2.
    Another thread said to disable updates inside an office program (File, Account, Update Options).  Then Enable it, and updating should start immediately.  Nope.  Strike 3.
    Same thread said if the above didn't work, to go to Uninstall Programs, and run a Repair of Office 2013.  Did that, and then it wanted the Product Key again.  Gave it the product key, it put a green check mark next to it signifying it was good,
    and then when I clicked next, it said it couldn't activate it.  I clicked the Repair button, and the program closed.  Strike 4.
    I uninstalled, and reinstalled Office 2013.  I downloaded the Office 2013 Service Pack 1 x64, and ran it.  It gives the error message "There are no products affected by this package installed on the system".  How could that be? 
    Article ID 2850036 says specifically that it applies to "Microsoft Office Home and Business 2013".  Since when can't you install Service Packs? Strike 5.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    The issue may occur if the registry entries are corrupted or missing. Usually, repair the Office suite from control panel can fix the issue.
    For your case, I would suggest you to run Microsoft Fix It tool (or follow the
    manual steps listed in follow article
    ) to uninstall Office 2013 completely from your computer, then do a re-installation and verify the result:

    If you are able to login to
    www.office.com/myaccount, then you can get the latest Office installation file there.

  • There comes a ERROR in installing OFFICE 2013

    When i tried to install office 2013 through a valid product key , it answers me that this product key cannot be used in your region. Please tell what should i do about this..........................

    Hi,
    Firstly, you should tell if the software is marked as requiring activation in a specific geographic region. Then you are only permitted to activate this software in the geographic region indicated on the software packaging. You may not be able to activate
    the software outside of that region.
    More information about How to tell - Geographically restricted software:

    If not, we can activate Office 2013 via phone. The phone activation process will provide you with the appropriate phone number to call.

  • Bootstrapper error when installing Office 2013

    Trying to install Office 2013 on a PC that has Office 2010. We use the Pro Plus setup. Anyways, it's failing with the following messages:
    I have tried quite a few different fixes that I have found but none seem to work. Any ideas how to get around this?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I understand you need to install Office Professional Plus 2013, may I know why you still keep the Office 2010? What steps have you tried?
    When installing Office 2013, please make sure no Office 2010 Application is running when installing Office 2013, also check the Task Manager that no Office 2010 application is running in the background.
    One more thing, if you have Office 2010 32-bit, please also install Office 2013 32-bit; If the Office 2010 is 64-bit, Office 2013 also needs to be 64-bit.
    To eliminate the influence by other programs, I suggest you perform a
    clean boot, then install Office 2013.

  • Installed Office 2013 on MBP Retina and Got BSOD.  Could it be MSFT Cacheing?

    I just installed Office 2013 Home Premium.  Running Win7 64 bit.  Have never had any issue and now getting Blue Screen in various Apps (IE, Visio, Word, etc.).  Blue Screen Says BAD_POOL_HEADER.  When I read it is mentions Cacheing.  I uninstalled Office 2013.
    Would Office Pro the standalone version have this same problem.

  • Installing Office 2013 on several PCs in a small company

    Rather than create individual Live IDs for each of the 7 PCs in a small company, in order to install Office 2013, can we install 7 copies of Office 2013 using a single Live ID?  (each copy of Office 2013 is licenced individually, not bought through
    VLSC).
    Or, is there a better way to install several copies of Office 2013 in an organisation (that does not want to buy Volume Licencing, they just want to buy individual copies)?

    Are you talking about the local install version Office 2013, or Office 365 (2013)?
    Office 365 is "easier" if you are dealing with volume licenses.  Office 365 "installs" very quickly, in a matter of minutes. So if you are talking about buying individual 365 business licensees, just document a short procedure telling users how to install
    Office 365 (sorry, that may not work if they don't have admin rights on the PC).
    If you bought Office 365 volume license, here is a procedure I pieced together:
    How does a company install and control licenses - Business
    Using Click to Run virtualization, the process of getting new users running has substantially changed. Because CTR installations are so fast, you no longer have to pre-install the software for users.
    A business IT Admin controls use of corporate Office 365 licenses through the Office 365 Administration Center online.
    Overview:
    - In the Office 365 Administration Center the designated Office Administrator sets up the new USER ID
    - Setup the associated email account(s)
    - Setup Office licenses allowed to the userid
    - the new User logs in to their new computer
    - in Internet Explorer the user goes to the “Office 365 Portal” site to get their allowed Office 365 installation
    - using the Click to Run installation process, Office 365 is installed and running on a new computer is a matter of minutes.
    The following links will provide you with more detailed information of where to look and what to do. You may require some additional support from an “expert” .

    Jeremy: So we showed the installation experience for a domain-joined computer where single sign on is enabled and one that is not domain-joined, but installs via the Office 365 portal. In the direct from portal case when you kick off the
    installation, you will see a file that looks something like this:
    Setup.X86.en-us_O365ProPlusRetail_24*****-45a2-4eeb-b06f-b14****189c8_TX_PR_.exe
    In a future episode we'll talk about all of the configurations needed to suppress completely sign-in, first run experiences and user prompts. IT admins have had to deal with these in past releases of Office, but now there are ways to
    automatically sign users in to Office 365 installs picking up their domain credentials. I also showed the effects of deleting the user account from the Azure AD store and how it put Yoni's Office into Reduced Functionality Mode (RFM) -
    even if Yoni installs Office on his personal devices using his organization's Office software assets, once Yoni leaves the org the IT department can deprovision his personal installs. That keeps software asset management cleaner and IT is in control.
    Yoni: Don't forget we also had Mark Russinovich on the show and he explained the security model for online services with Azure AD - in your car. It sounds like they are taking the defense in depth approach to harden the service. And you
    made him slum it in your car, Jeremy.

     >
    This page also has a link to the same poster online (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=38193 has PDF and Visio versions of the chart). As well, it goes into
    more detail with information like the following:
    … Because Office is a tool that is used by the same individual in two different roles, the new Office offers two identities with which users can log on to Office 2013:
    A Microsoft account, which most people use for personal business
    An organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft, which most people use when doing work for an organization, such as a business, charity, or school.
    The credentials that are used to sign in are recognized as either personal or organizational. That sign-in identity becomes the user's “home realm” and determines which documents the user has access to on SharePoint, SkyDrive, or Office 365 Services for
    a specific session. Each unique sign in identity is saved in a most-recently used list so that it is easy to switch between identities without leaving the Office experience.
    a personal SkyDrive can be mounted to an organization identity so that personal documents can be accessed at work or school without ever switching identities. Also, when a user authenticates by using an identity, this authentication is valid for all Office
    applications, not just the application he or she signed in to.
    Two logon types are supported when users sign in to Office 2013, a Microsoft account or an organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft.
    Microsoft account (the user’s individual account). This account, formerly known as Windows Live ID, is the credential that users use to authenticate with the Microsoft network and is frequently used for personal or non-business work, such
    as volunteer work. To create a Microsoft account, a user provides a user name and password, certain demographic information, and “account proofs,” such as an alternative email address or phone number. For more information about the new Microsoft account, see
    What is a Microsoft account?.
    An organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft / Office 365 account ID that is assigned by Microsoft. This account is created for business use. An Office 365 account can be one of three types: a pure Office 365 ID, an Active Directory
    ID, or an Active Directory Federation Services ID. These are described below:
    Office 365 ID. This ID is created when an admin sets up an Office 365 domain and takes the form <user>@<org>.onmicrosoft.com, for example:
    [email protected]
    Organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft that is validated against a user's Active Directory ID. An organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft and validated against Active Directory as follows:
    First, a person who has an [on-premise domain]\<user> account attempts to access organization resources.
    Next, the resource requests authentication from the user.
    Then, the user types in their organization user name and password.
    Finally, that user name and password are validated against the organization AD database, the user is authenticated, and is given access to the requested resource.
    An organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft that is validated against a user’s Active Directory Federation Services ID. An organization ID that is assigned by Microsoft and validated against Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS)
    as follows:
    First, one person who has an org.onmicrosoft.com attempts to access
    partner organization resources.
    Then, the resource requests authentication from the user.
    Next, the user types in their organization user name and password.
    Then, that user name and password are validated against the organization AD database.
    Finally, that same user name and password are passed to the partner’s federated AD database, the user is authenticated, and is given access to the requested resource.
    For on-premises resources, Office 2013 uses the domain\alias user name for authentication. For federated resources, Office 2013 uses the [email protected] user name for authentication.

    Sign-in for Small Business subscriptions
    Users receive Windows Azure Active Directory cloud credentials—separate from other desktop or corporate credentials—for signing into Office 365 and other Microsoft cloud services.
    Sign-in options for Enterprise, Midsize Business, Kiosk, Academic, and Government subscriptions
    Office 365 for Enterprise, Midsize Business, Kiosk, Academic, and Government subscriptions has two systems that can be used for user identities:
    Organizational account (cloud identity)   Users receive Windows Azure Active Directory cloud credentials—separate from other desktop or corporate credentials—for signing into Office 365 and other Microsoft cloud
    services. This is the default identity, and is recommended for small and midsize businesses in order to minimize deployment complexity. Passwords for organizational accounts use the Windows Azure Active Directory
    password policy.
    Federated account (federated identity)   For all subscriptions other than Office 365 Small Business and Office 365 Small Business Premium, in organizations with on-premises Active Directory that use single sign-on
    (SSO), users can sign into Office 365 services by using their Active Directory credentials. The corporate Active Directory stores and controls the password policy. For information about SSO, see
    Single sign-on roadmap.
    The type of identity affects the user experience and user account management options, as well as hardware and software requirements and other deployment considerations.
    Custom domains and identity options
    When you create a new user, the user’s sign-in name and email address are assigned to the default domain as set in the Office 365 admin center. By default, the Office 365 subscription uses the <company name>.onmicrosoft.com
    domain that was created with the Office 365 account. You can add one or more custom domains to Office 365 rather than retaining the
    onmicrosoft.com domain, and can assign users to sign in with any of the validated domains. Each user’s assigned domain is the email address that will appear on sent and received email messages.
    You can host up to 600 registered Internet domains in Office 365, each represented by a different namespace.
    For organizations using single sign-on, all users on a domain must use the same identity system: either cloud identity or federated identity. For example, you could have one group of users that only needs a cloud identity because they don’t access on-premises
    systems, and another group of users who use Office 365 and on-premises systems. You would use add two domains to Office 365, such as
    contractors.contoso.com and
    staff.contoso.com, and only set up SSO for one of them. An entire domain can be converted from cloud identity to federated identity, or from federated identity to cloud identity.
    For more information about domains in Office 365, see the
    Domains service description.
    Creating user accounts
    Office 365 provides five ways to create user accounts, some of which are not available for Office 365 Small Business and Office 365 Small Business Premium: Add single User, Bulk upload using *.CSV files, Active Directory Synchronization, Azure Active Directory
    Module for powershell, Exchange Simple Migration
    Password management
    The policies and procedures for password management depend on the identity system.
    Cloud identity password management:
    When using cloud identities, passwords are automatically generated when the account is created.
    For cloud identity password strength requirements, see
    Change your password.
    To increase security, users must change their passwords when they first access Office 365 services. As a result, before users can access Office 365 services, they must sign into the Office 365 portal, where they are prompted to change their passwords.
    Admins can set the password expiration policy. For more information for Enterprise and Midsize subscriptions, see
    Set a user’s password expiration policy. For Small Business, see
    Change how often passwords expire.
    License management
    A subscription to Office 365 is made up of a number of licenses to a set of services. An administrator assigns a license to each user for each service that user needs access to. For more information about managing licenses, see
    Assign or remove a license in Office 365 Enterprise, or
    Assign or remove a license in Office 365 Small Business.
