How to install for free Microsoft Office on macbook air when already installed it on iMac ?

I installed on my iMac at home Microsoft-Word for Mac (v. 14.3.6) and would like to also install it for free on my matchbook air. How do I do ? I also subscribed yesterday to Microsoft 365 subscription to use the new Office for iPad; will this help ?

Since you subscribed to Office365 just log into your account at Microsoft and in the upper right hand corner select My Account. There you'll be able to download Office for your computer. You'll also want to go to Apple's App Store and download the OneDrive app to sync your documents to OneDrive so you can view/edit them on your iPad and keep your two computers synced.

  • How to install Microsoft Office on MacBook Air?

    I just bought my first ever Apple MacBook and I am realy having hard time with it.
    Please someone tell me how to install the Microsoft Office 2011 on MacBook Air.
    Thank you so much!

    Just go to MS Office, download a free trial, enter the product key from the MS Office software that you purchased, and voila!  So easy!
    Does this solution work on different versions of software (in this case MS Office)?  I don't keep up with all the releases so the dates are probably wrong in the following examples.  Lets assume I owned MS Office 07 and I wanted to use your solution.  I assume the MS website DOESN'T offer free trials of outdated software.  So, I go on their website, download MS Office 2011 and then enter my product key from MS Office 2007.  Are you saying that will work?
    Personally for me, I don't give two hoots about getting the latest MS Office. So, if I have a working copy of an earlier edition, that's the one I want to install.  And yes, for you NO-NO people, I do remove the software from my previous computers when I do this before I sell them. 
    Even if I could upgrade my previous version, I wouldn't want to as it would be a waste of my time during the learning curve.  In fact I'm paying this penalty now in that I'm using MS Office 08 that my wife bought (3 computer version) and insisted I put on my computer to help her on her's.  I was using MS Office 03 and hate the 08 pull down menus.  Since I use the program infrequently, I find myself staggering around trying to find this and that when with the '03 version, it would be simply click and done.

  • Microsoft Office and MacBook Air

    Hello everyone,
    I have just bought a MacBook Air 13 inches (4GB) and I am about to install Microsoft Office. The problem is I remember that when I installed it on my MacBook Pro, the softwares would run very slowly and would always have bugs. Should I avoid installing Microsoft Office on my new MacBook Air ??
    Thanks for your help

    I do agree but was only mentioning Pages since that offers "some" sort of compatibility...this has always been a problem with word processors.  When I was actually using WordPerfect heavily, there was conversion capability for Word documents...well, that was a major overstatement...the conversion actaully only worked on plain text.  And that was sometimes garbbled.  Tables and equations, which I use heavily as an engineer, forget it.  Not possible.  And Excel and Quattro Pro conversion was a disaster.
    So I agree, before buying into a package, underestand the true capability of conversion to other formats.  And honestly assess your goals for compatibility with other products and your needs for those other products.  If you really want the features of a particular product, just buy that product and avoid conversion frustrations.
    Never tried LibreOffice, may have to try it just to see what it is like.

  • Microsoft Office on Macbook Air

    How am I supposed to install Microsoft Office on my Macbook Air? I heard that it was in CD form but Macbook Airs dont have the CD slot... please help!!!

    It might be a good idea to learn a bit more about your new computer - like how to share the optical drive of another computer. If you don't have another computer handy you might consider buying an inexpensive external optical drive. Or, become familiar with software vendors' download sites. Go to Microsoft's Mac page and download the appropriate package. If you've already bought the DVD be sure to download the file that matches what you bought. You can then use the serial number that came with the box. Another option is to put the DVD into another computer and drag the installer onto a flash drive (this is my favorite solution since it is usually faster than downloading a large program.)

  • How do I get my information from my macbook air to auto link into my iMac desk computer?

    I just purchased an imac desktop computer and had the information from my macbook air transfered into it.  I was away on business and came back to find that my information didn't auto sync into my desktop computer.  How do I auto sync the 2?

    You can re-run Migration Assistant and this will migrate from the MBA to the iMac.  You can also turn on Disk Sharing on both computers in System Preferences - Sharing and as long as they are on the same network you can copy files. Stay away from system files, only move data files. If you want to migrate applications then use Migration Assistant or manually install them on the iMac.

  • Just upgraded to Lion, how can i use my microsoft office especially excel.  I'm getting messages that it's no longer supported.  This is a BIG problem.  Help, please.

    Just upgraded to Lion, how can I use my microsoft office especially excel.  I'm getting messages that it's no longer supported.  This is a BIG problem.  Help, please.

    Apple has made a serious error not advising people when the Lion upgrade occurs that their present software may/will not be compatible and advise the user of such before and allow a opt out.
    All you can do (besides upgrading all your software) is backup your data off the machine (not to TimeMachine) and disconnect all drives.
    Hold c boot off the 10.6 disk and erase your makers hard drive on the far left, (that's the entire drive of everything)
    Partition tab: Option: GUID, format OS X extended and click apply so you get a new GUID (replacing the Lion one or trouble occurs later)
    Quit and install 10.6, then go through setup and use the same name as before, then update to 10.6.8
    Then c boot off the 10.6 disk again and use Disk Utility to Repair the disk the 10.6.8 update messed up.
    Then install all your programs again from fresh sources and lastly your user files in the same main user folders as before (music, pictures, documents etc.)
    Done as described will get you back just like it was before as close as possible, make SURE to use the same username or else your iTunes and other files get all messed up. Password and drive name can be different though if you wish.
    Note: if you've upgraded from 10.5 to 10.6, then you don't get the free iLife as it's not on the 10.6.3 white disks, only on the disks that came with your machine. So that will have to be purchased and reinstalled or use Pacifist to extract it from the 10.5 disks.
    This handy site can advise you what software doesn't work with the Lion.

    How can I download Micosoft Office 2008 for Mac on my new Macbook Air? I have the DVD and product key

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have two options:
    1. If you have another Mac or PC, use Remote Disc to install it on your Mac > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5287
    2. Buy an external optical drive and use it to install Microsoft Office.
    Both options work correctly. If you are going to use the optical drive once, use Remote Disc, but it will be much slower than using an optical drive connected to the computer

  • How do I download my Microsoft office on to my MacBook Air using airdrop from my iMac? Please help

    How do I download my Microsoft office on to my MacBook Air using airdrop from my iMac? Please help

    Out of curiosity, does Microsoft's licensing allow for such an install and/or more than one install? I just did a cursory check on their licensing and found that most are only licensed for one computer unless you buy a special key card.
    I had a different app once that was only allowed on one computer; it would not install on the other Mac. You may therefore encounter problems - since you must have an install CD, why not use that if you have the key card allowing you to install it on more than one?

  • I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a General Failure box stating 'The system cannot find the file specified' yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a box stating
    General Failure. The URL was "http:// etc etc".The system cannot find the file specified.

    I am having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Professional. Out of the blue, this issue just started a few months ago when running my monthly Windows Backup where I have used a USB drive for the last 3 years, and never ever had this issue before. Most
    of the solutions listed on the Microsoft websites and answers deal with
    "Restore" functions, not the
    "Backup" itself. I have 3 folders being skipped during the backup.
    So I went and changed the Backup from "let Microsoft choose files, directories, etc" to "Let me choose". I included the files and folders that were being skipped, and ran the "Backup" again, and got the same error message,
    but the files that were skipped the first time were "Backed up" finally. This issue is somehow related to my "Libraries"?
    The 3 backup problems are:
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book Recordings. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book CD Label-Cover Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book MP3 Tag Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Did a "checkdisk" - no problems. Ran a program to fix registry - no problems. All updates up to date. I guess I could eliminate these folders from the Backup folders in the
    Library, and just choose them under the "Users" locations, and be done with it. But I really want to understand this, and fix it. This is within Windows 7 and may be related to Windows Media Player or
    some recent Windows update.  Thanks.

  • I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel.  When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes.  How do I fix this?

    I created a spreadsheet using Microsoft office 2010 Excel.  When I open the sheet using Numbers, the formatting changes.  How do I fix this?

    If you plan to share or work with people who regulary use MS Excel you should not try to use this in Numbers.  You will have constant problems with how each program translates the formatting.
    If you want to use Numbers, use it exclusively.  If it is for your job use the tool your company uses.

  • How to type Pashto in Microsoft Office Word in Macbook Pro?

    How to type Pashto in Microsoft Office Word in Macbook Pro? Though I have added Pashto Language, but when typing Pashto, It types something non-sense. Please guide me, if you know. The writing method of Pashto is the same like Arabic. I mean from Right to Left.

    No version of MS Word for OS X has ever supported Arabic script.  Instead you must use another app.  Mellel is best, but TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or OpenOffice should also work OK.

  • How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?

    How can I change the Microsoft Office Click to Run from drive letter 'Q' to something else?
    We have a legacy app that used drive letter 'Q' already, now the newer machines are coming in with 'Q' preassigned to Microsoft Office Click to Run, and it is causing problems.  There has to be a way to change the drive letter assignment to some
    other letter besides 'Q' 

    Hi,
    Office that is delivered by Click-to-Run is installed on the Q drive, this cannot be changed.
    To work around this problem, uninstall the Click-to-Run version of Office and then install with the traditional MSI-based installation.
    To switch to using an MSI-based Office edition, you can learn something useful from this link below:

  • How I can for free upgrade os x 10.5.8 to 10.6?

    how I can for free upgrade os x 10.5.8 to 10.6?

    You can't upgrade for free.
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard — Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service — this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
