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.

  • Does Lion support MS Office for Mac 2011? The RoaringApps compatibility list shows Office 2011 having some unspecified problems with Lion.

    Does Lion support MS Office for Mac 2011? The RoaringApps compatibility list shows Office 2011 having some unspecified problems with Lion. Any confirmation yest showing compatibility with Office 2011?

    I'm running MS Office 2011 on Lion and it runs just fine.  No "Full Screen", but it runs just fine.  There may have been an update to install (I know there was an iWork one anyway), but even before I installed any updates Office '11 worked just fine.

  • Lion - 2004 MS Office for Mac will not work

    My 2004 version of Microsoft Office for Mac will not work in Lion. I suspect because this is a PowerPC application. My question is this:
    Is there any program out there which will map the PowerPC to an Intel format? Other than trying to seel more products, I am surprised that Apple does not supply a mapping program for products made by Microsoft for the Apple devices.

    Eric, can you tell me where please? It's not mentioned on the Lion compatibility pages at all. (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/what-is/compatibility.html) nor on the 'how to upgrade' page (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/how-to-buy/)

  • 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.

  • Does Lion work with Office for Mac?

    Does Lion work ok with Office for Mac? I have the latest version of Office for Mac, but it is the cornerstone of my working life and I would hate to upgrade and find that it doesn't work.

    Yes, Office 2011 works perfectly on Lion.  Only versions 2004 and older have a problem as Rosetta is no longer supported.
    I hope this helps.

  • OS X Lion just ate Office for Mac

    Why weren't we made aware Office for Mac would not work with Lion? I feel like I just wasted $100 on productivity software.

    Which version, I am not certain.
    2008 is the version designation. Unless something else got wrecked in the process of installing Lion, it should still work.
    They must have though they had a need to let users know because during the configuration they call out software that is not compatable in a message box.
    That message should only appear for software that is only PowerPC. Universal or Intel only apps should run, albeit, with possible minor issues that need updates to work correctly in Lion.
    While yes there are thousands of pieces of third party software one would think that a warning about a piece of software that ubiquitious would have good form.
    Neither Apple nor Microsoft tell any end user what third party software may not work in a new OS. That job falls on the vendors who write the software.
    They all have access to developer builds of any upcoming OS upgrade or update long before the public sees it. It's then up to them to do what is necessary to make the software compatible with the OS. You then should get an email notice from the companies you registered your software with that an update, or upgrade is needed. If not an email, the first thing you should do for a program that isn't working is to vist that company's web site to see if there are new updates to install.

  • Will Mountain Lion affect my iLife installations?

    I have a 2011 Intel iMac, which came with 10.6.7 disks.  Soon after getting it, I upgraded to Lion.  I am about to upgrade to Mountain Lion and I am concerned that my existing iLife suite may be affected by the upgrade.  If I have a problem, where do I go to re-install the iLife material?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you have any problems with your iLife (you shouldn't) then you would use your install disk to re-install them.

  • Will mountain lion upgrade be available for all my computers

    when i upgrade to mountain lion on one computer, can I download to all my other macs?

    Mountain Lion requirements.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) model number 2,1 or higher
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
    Xserve (Early 2009) model number 3,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space

  • When I upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion my Quicken 2006 for Mac stopped working, short of paying the $59 for Quicken Mac Essentials is there anything else I can do to read my old files?

    help

    Preface: I have no experience with Quicken Essentials, but have read, quite often, on this and other forums that it is a further strip down of features from Quicken 2007.  So I agree, get Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion, but...
    BE CAREFUL with Quicken!
    When Intuit finally released Quicken 2007 for Lion v16.1.1 in March, 2013 it was a godsend for older Quicken PPC users.  It will directly open the data file from Quicken 2005, 2006 or 2007 PPC versions.  The upgrade to 16.1.2 with the release of Mountain Lion was also stable.
    I found version 16.1.3 to crash on opening on my Lion Mac, so I downgraded back to version 16.1.2 and all is well.  Others are now reporting that version 16.1.4, the current version sold by Intuit, is also causing some problems.  I have not been able to isolate these reports.
    My point: purchase Quicken 2007 for Lion, but ALSO:
    1.  Make copies of your Quicken 2007 PPC data file and back them up BEFORE you attempt to open it in 16.1.4; and
    2.  If you run into problems, let me know by email (michaellax) at AOL dot com.
    If it works fine for you, please report that too!
    PS: Baltwo will tell you he has encountered no problems and good for him.  But the reports of others with problems keep mounting...

  • Will Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 work on my iMac with Mountain Lion OS?

    Help!  I have downloaded Mountain Lion (10.8.4) on my iMac. Now I can't open or use files that contained labels I made with Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 because Mountain Lion does not support Power PC and Microsoft Excel.  If I purchase and download Office for Mac 2011, will it allow me to continue using these label files?  If not, how can I get a database for my iMac that will enable me to create labels and catalogues?

    Thanks, Niel.  I'm glad to know purchasing the Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 will enable me to retrieve and use my "ancient" database label files.  I did try to get OpenOffice, but my computer says "'OpenOffice' can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" and my "security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers."  How can I do this?  I really don't know about the inner workings of my computer!
