I downloaded OSX Lion and lost access to my Microsoft office programs.  How do I get them back?

I just purchased OSX Lion and downloaded the file.  I now can not access my microsoft office programs.  This is not something I was warned about by the team in the Apple Store at all.  Is there a way to recover these programs? ( Word, Excel, Powerpoint)

Do you have Office 2004 or earlier? If so, you'll need to upgrade to a more recent version. Office 2004 is a PowerPC application, and requires Rosetta to run on an Intel Mac. Rosetta isn't included in Lion, so Lion won't run PowerPC apps.
One suggestion I've seen is to put two partitions on your hard drive, with one running Snow Leopard and the other running Lion. Any PowerPC apps would be installed on the Snow Leopard partition, and Universal or Intel apps would be installed on the Lion partition.
If your version of Office is the Intel version, I don't know what to tell you. Hope this helps.

    You can get iTunes purchases back by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    For other items you need to get them from whee yuo got them the first time.
    The iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced mediai like apps and music. If those ore not in the iTunes library on the computer on which you performed the update they are lost.

  • I had to update my ipad, and lost all my Harry Potter books! How do I get them back?

    Uploaded them from Pottermore from my home computer, then to the Ipad, Now with recent upload all my books are gone. How do I get them back? Any ideas guys!

    You have the files on your computer? If so, then just get them back into iTunes and sync them back onto your iPad. You can use the books part of iTUnes, or if you reader app has a data transfer option, use that to sync them back onto your device.

    Thank you for your question,
         If you have the installation disc for iLife and MS Office, then you can install it from there. With iPhoto, if you downloaded it from the Mac App Store, you can redownlad it fron the "Purchases" tab.

  • Updated to the newest version and tried to manage my email the way I always do and LOST ALL my important filed emails. How do I get them back? This will now cost me over $50.00 to lost actions pending.

    My "deleted" email is supposed to go into a holding area where I then have a second chance to save or delete for good. I use this method to temporarily save my current files while redirecting the older files to another account, then putting the "deleted" files back into the active account. When I did this the last time all the files were deleted permanently and I want to know why. How do I make sure this won't happen again? Because of this, I now have lost at LEAST $50.00 in pending rebates and over payments that were pending.

    I have read a lot of suggestions concerning my problem, the thing is I don't have the option of Re-downloading and in the file menu when I get my library options I don't even have the option of backing up my movie, music, apps, and I don'tt have the Purchased option under my quick links for some unknown reason. Open itunes store  Click "Purchased" under "Quick Links", simply does not work for me. I certainly would like to contact itunes support who would kindly granted me a one time re-download of my purchased music. But then don't answer my cry for help, so again I am stuck with nothing after I bought over 1000.00 dollars worth of movies, music, apps and I don' t have acces to any of it. Thank you Apple for making me feel like a valued customer,
    Thank you all for your help but it just doesn't work 4 m2.

    As long as the apps and ibooks are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

    I accidently deleted my icloud a/c and lost some of my important contacts , please help me in getting them back.

    Hey ashvinee,
    Sorry to hear you're having difficulty with your contacts. We have a few articles that could resolve your issue.
    I would start here:
    iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3998
    Recovering iCloud or MobileMe data from iTunes backups for an iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4108
    This second article applies to you if:
    You want to recover your Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks from an iTunes iOS device backup made while using iCloud or MobileMe to update your Contacts, Calendars, and Bookmarks on your iOS device.
    You have created backups in iTunes, and you do not have or are unable to restore from an iCloud Backup. Learn more about how to restore from an iCloud Backup.
    You have lost data from the web, your iOS device, and all other synchronized clients, and you have no other usable backups to recover from.
    Cheers,
    David

  • I downloaded movies onto my iPad to watch when I was abroad, I synchronised with my laptop and now they are not on my iPad how can I get them back?

    If the shows are in fact still on the pad, they will be found in the videos app, not the music or I tunes app.  Look there and see if they are still there.
    If you don't see them there, go to the searchlight screen ( farthest left home page) and type in the name of one of the shows.  If it is on the pad, hiding somewhere, this will find it.
    If they are not there, they should not be using up space.
    To get them back onto your pad, plug in and sync again.  Make sure you transfer purchases first.   Before you sync, take a look at the video tab in your I tunes, and check what you want and don't want synced.

  • I have allowed my iTunes Match subscription to expire, because of a limited data plan so can't listen to music outside my house. My music files were removed from my computer and are inaccessible without renewing the subscription. How do I get them back?

    I have allowed my iTunes Match subscription to expire, because of a limited data plan so can't listen to music outside my house. My music files were removed from my computer and are inaccessible without renewing the subscription. How do I get them back?

    Hi,
    I presume you deleted the original files as match would not have done so. Do you have a back up. If so, restore your music from that. If not, your will have lost all your music as this needed to be on your hard drive when you unsubscribed.

    I lost my changes in iCloud document! How do I get them back!?!?

    Uninstalling the application will not delete your files.
    They should be whereever you saved them.
    That said, for future use, you might want to give this a read:

  • I accidentally restored my iPhone 5c and some apps are in "waiting" mode. How do I get them back?

    I accidentally restored my iPhone 5c and some apps are in "waiting" mode. How do I get them back?

    Hey Tfromon,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like you have an app that seems to be stuck on “Waiting," and the following is a past discussion that dealt with a similar issue and may help you as well:
    App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
    Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
    Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
    If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.
