1. Launch application and click Enter your product key.
2. Review the Software License Agreement and click Continue.
3. You must agree to Software License Agreement. Click Continue.
4. Enter your product key and click Activate. The Activation Wizard automatically contacts the Microsoft licensing servers through your Internet connection.

If you decide to activate the product through the Internet and you are not already connected, the wizard alerts you that there is no connection. Click either Activate by Phone or Activate later.  Note Do not lose the product key. Keep the packaging, or note the number.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Download the trial from the Microsoft site, then activate with the code that came with your box set.

  • How will mountain lion affect my office for mac 201111

    How will mountain Lion affect my office for Mac 2011

    I have been using Office for Mac 2011 for almost a year now and the issue started immediately after doing the upgrade.
    When I start Outlook I can see that it takes 1 minute plus to set up the identity.
    When it finally runs it is very slow and no fun to use. It seems that Outlook is using very few resources when I look at the activity monitor.
    Overall it seems that my IMac has become slower than before upgrading to 10.8.
    I do not have support with MSFT anymore and I do hope that somebody does report this issue to MSFT.
    To me it seems to be very clear a result of the upgrade.
    Hope that helps.

  • How can i install more korean fonts for mac book pro

    Hello
    I recently purchased mac book pro.
    Where and how can i install more korean fonts for mac book pro?
    thanks guys.

    Do you really need more?  OS X comes with quite a few already: Gungseo, HeadlineA, Nanum Brush, Nanum Gothic, NanumMyungjo, Nanum Pen, PCMyungjo, PilGi, AppleGothic, AppleMyungjo
    If so, just do a google search for korean unicode fonts.

    how do i access word for mac on my macbook air?

    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.

    just bought a new macbook air, how can i install my iphotos from my mac desktop to the air
    Bill

    Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc)  or use an external hard drive formed Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.

  • Do I need antivirus software with MS Office for Mac on my Macbook Pro?

    I am brand new to a Mac and just recently bought a MacBook Pro. I also purchased MS Office 2011 for Mac and have installed it. I've heard you don't need anitvirus for a Mac but I didn't know if having MS Office installed on my Mac made the circumstance any different. Any help if appreciated.

    No. Since Office for Mac runs under OS X and not Windows, no antu-virus software is needed.

  • Buying a new MAcBook Pro - How do i move files and office for Mac

    I am buying a new MacBook Pro and have a license for my office for Mac 2008. Can I re-install into the new computer or do i need to buy a new license? Also, how do i move all my itunes, photos, and files from one to the other!

    Use TDM for transferring files, drag libraries into folders (iTunes Library into iTunes Folder for example). The Firewire cable will need to be a 6 to 9 pin, or an adapter.
    If you're giving up the pB, De-authorize it for iTunes.
    Don't do applications between G4 and Intel machines, better to reinstall.
    Uninstall Office and use your key on the new Machine. Run Office update.
    Connecting Your PowerBook to Another Computer Using FireWire Target Disk Mode.
    If you want to transfer files between your PowerBook and another FireWire-equipped
    Macintosh computer, or you have a problem that prevents your computer from starting
    up, you can use FireWire Target Disk Mode to connect to another computer. When you
    start up your computer in FireWire Target Disk Mode, the other computer can access
    your PowerBook as if it were an external hard disk.
    Note: When using FireWire Target Disk Mode, it’s a good idea to connect your power
    adapter to the PowerBook.
    To connect your PowerBook to another computer in FireWire Target Disk Mode:
    1 Make sure that your PowerBook is shut down.
    2 Use a FireWire cable to connect your PowerBook to another FireWire-equipped
    computer.
    3 Start up your PowerBook and immediately hold down the T key.
    Your PowerBook display shows the FireWire logo. The other computer’s display shows
    the PowerBook internal hard disk icon. You can now drag and drop files between the
    computers.
    4 When you finish transferring files, drag the PowerBook hard disk icon to the Trash.
    5 Press the power button (®) on the PowerBook to shut it down, and then disconnect
    the FireWire cable.

  • Why can I not install fonts? Office for Mac will not recognize them?

    My wife and I tried many times to install several fonts that we could use in Microsoft Office for Mac. Even though it said they were installed in the Mac, we could not see them in Word. We are new to the Apple products. We are not novice computer users, just novice Mac users. The font book shows them installed. We tried to choose several of the font families to add the fonts to. We could not see them there either. My wife does some foreign correspondence and likes to use pretty script fonts (TTF). Please help if you can.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE
    Billy

    Sorry also not.
    I signed in to the App Store (and to itunes store just to make sure) with both my apple ids but i do not have the sub- section 'Hidden Purchases' within 'Itunes in the cloud' section. I guess I do not have hidden purchases then...
    More interestingly: I checked the 'Top Charts' section in the AppStore and under category 'Top Free' all the iWork stuff (Numbers, Keynote, pages etc) shows up! But it has a price (e.g. numbers = 2000Yen) underneath... very strange.
    Somewhat the app store knows that it should be free for me but the price is not displayed as 'Free'...
    Help please.

  • 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,
