Key for Microsoft office in password protected document

I bought a used Mac. The apple certified store navigated my old drive to the new machine. Now office wants the key. I save the key in a password protected document in Word so the old select the document hit the space bar doesn't work. Any ideas?

I think you need a different company's forum:
Office for Mac forums
Not a lot of Office users reporting in here, whereas the MS forum I linked is very active and you may get help directly from an MS Mac Business Unit employee. Great place for Office issues.

  • How to find product key for Microsoft Office 2010?

    I purchased an HP Pavilion dv6 a couple of years ago. At the time of purchase I also ordered a license for Microsoft Office 2010. The laptop came with Office already installed, and everything worked great for years.
    Earlier this week I had to do a full system restore to get my laptop back in working order. I backed up all of my user files, found installers or original installation media for all of my software except for Office, and proceeded with the system restore.
    I just got everything running again this morning. The system restore put a clean copy of the OS on my laptop, but Microsoft Office is gone. I've just about finished re-installing all of the other software, but I need some help with Office.
    Since my laptop didn't come with installation media for Microsoft Office 2010 I'm trying to donwload it from here:
    https://www2.downloadoffice2010.microsoft.com/usa/registerkey.aspx?culture=en-US&ref=pkc
    It asks for a product key for Office 2010 in order to start the download. The product key for Microsoft Windows is on the bottom of my computer, but I can't find a product key for Office. (Before anyone asks, yes, this is the full version of Office 2010, and yes, I paid for it at the time of purchase of the laptop.) I kept all of the paperwork that came with the computer, but I can't find the Office product key anywhere in that packet. Is there somewhere else I should be looking for my product key?
    Better yet, does HP still have a copy of my original purchase order for this laptop, and do they store product keys for the products they sell? 
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Neither HP nor Microsoft keep a record of the key that was issued.  If you cannot find it in your documentation or emails I'm afraid you are out of luck and would have to purchase another key.

  • New computer.. Product key for Microsoft Office?

    I recently purchase a new notebook assuming Microsoft Office would be installed and ready to use. It is installed but asks for a product key to use. I did not receive a product key with any of the paper work for the computer. Is this program not included already, or do I need to buy the program?

    There is no such thing as a trial anymore so that is incorrect. IT has Word started on it which allows you to use basic functions of word and excel. You don't get an actual code as it is just the basic use of it, not like a full version.

  • Where can I find the product key for Microsoft Office 2011 that I purchased on line?

    I upgraded my MacBook Pro to the Maverick operating system and now I have to enter the product key when I try to open MS Word, Excel or Powerpoint.  Where can I find the product key in my mac?

    Yet another example as to why you should always purchase software on disk whenever possible.

  • KM Image file name for Microsoft Office 2003 documents

    We want to change the images which display for Microsoft Office 2003 files loaded into KM to something more recognizable, but we CANNOT find the image files for .XLS, .DOC, .PPT, etc.
    Any Ideas what they are called?  Are they in the standard image repository?
    Thanks!

    Hi Brian,
    the icons are saved under /etc/public/mimes/images.
    You can go to KM Content and upload there your own icons, You can either replace the SAP standard ones (ie: document.gif for .DOC) or you can change the KM Configuration (Content Management -> Utilities -> Icons) so that your own icons are associated with the MIME types you want to change. The second solution should be more upgrade safe in my opinion.
    Hope this helps,
    Robert

  • How do I recover the hint for a password protected document

    How can I find the "hint" for password in a password protected document?

    To my knowledge, there is no provision for access to a password hint in a Pages document. That's why you keep a separate, but secure offline document with your document name and password right? Otherwise, you have joined the ranks of those that are simply out of luck, after forgettting their document password.

  • Extentions for Microsoft Office 2007

    The instructions for configuring the desktop say....
    "The plug-in requires Microsoft Office 2003 for Windows (or later) versions of Excel and Word."
    The (or later) can only be Microsoft Office 2007, which I have installed.
    The actual download page for the extension install file does not say "or later).
    I tried to install and it failed saying the I did not have Office 2003 installed. That is correct, I have Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007. So the information in the disk configuration instructions must be wrong.
    Does anyone know whether the extentions will be made available for Word and Excel 2007, or even if they are needed?

    Hi,
    There is a new version of the Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management for Microsoft Office which works with Microsoft Office 2007. You can download the new version of the plugin from http://www.adobe.com/products/livecycle/rightsmanagement/extension/downloads.html.
    Before installing the plugin you have to uninstall the previous installed version and also quit any running Microsoft Office programs.
    After the installation is complete, you will have to manually configure the plugin to work with the Adobe Document Center. To do this:
    * Launch one of the Microsoft Office applications.
    * Click on the newly installed tab called "Adobe Rights Management".
    * Click on the "Choose Server" button in the tab. You will see there is an existing pre-configured server.
    * Select the pre-configured server and click on the Edit button. In the name field enter "Adobe Document Center", in the Server Address Field enter "pdf-policy.adobe.com" and in the Port field enter "443"
    * Next click on the "Connect to this Server" button. This will prompt you to login to the server. Enter your Adobe Document Center username and password in this field.
    * Once login is successful there will be a message that the server has been successfully configured. Select the new Adobe Document Center entry in the Server Configuration dialog and make this entry the default by clicking on the "Set Default" button. This will complete the configuration.
    You can now use the Adobe Document Center to secure Office 2007 file formats using the Secure button on the Adobe Rights Management tab.
    Please let me know if you have any trouble.
    Thanks

  • How to obtain the table index in word use LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office

    I created a word templete and it had several tables. When I use the "Word Edit Cell" function in LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office, the function need "table index", and I didn't find any function to get or set the table index in word document. How can I achieve my attention to write value to specified table cell using the "Word Edit Cell" function?
    Thanks for reply!
    YangAfreet

    Hi yangafreet
    You do not need to get the table index for the word edit cell.vi from anywhere. LabVIEW will automatically index all the tables in the document. See the attatched vi for an example.

  • Control checkbox form field in word with report generation toolkit for Microsoft office

    Hi all,
    Happy New Year!
    I insert in the word template the check box form field. It has a bookmark name "Check1".
    Now I'm trying to checked or unchecked this field using the report generation toolkit for Microsoft office and I couldn't. If anyone now how to do it? I'm using LabView 8.0
    Thanks in advance,
    Boris
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Boris,
    The Microsoft Office Toolkit does not have support for checking/unchecking check box forum field. You would have to research the activex functionality that enables this to be checked or unchecked and then do the activex calls yourself. I did hear of one csutomer who used a special font to write a blank box or a checkbox into a word document and changed it that way as well.
    Maybe http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53715 gives a hint to an activex reference

  • Can't password protect documents

    A year ago I bought a  license for Adobe Acrobat Standard which included access to certain features including the ability to password protect documents.  Suddenly it has stopped working.  I have already re-downloaded my product version and that has not solved the problem and can find nothing online to help.  Any suggestions or solutions will be appreciated.

  • Does Time Machine/Migration Assistant successfully transfer software licenses for Microsoft Office and Adobe?

    I have a MacBook that I purchased in late 2007.  It's been very good to me over the years.  However, I'm been having various minor issues, and tonight I noticed that the screen goes to black at about 45° as I'm closing my laptop.  In other situations I'd try to fix this myself, but right now I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer in rural South America and have limited access to the right tools, much less replacement parts.  So instead I'm taking it as a sign that my trustworthy companion is about to give up the ghost and I should get a new computer now, instead of completely running this one into the ground and potentially losing important documents, photos, &c.
    My question is simple:  Does Time Machine and/or Migration Assistant successfully transfer licenses for Microsoft Office 2011 and for Adobe software?
    My software installation disks are in a box in a basement in the United States.  And since I'm not quite sure which box it is (last summer I did not see the need to label my own boxes), I'm not going to ask some unsuspecting friend or family member to dig through all my posessions to find an alphanumeric code or two, especially if I can just transfer/migrate the license without it.
    Many thanks.

    Try the combo update on the old machine.

  • Can I allow commenting on a password-protected document?

    I'd like to publish a book online and so want to at least password-protect it.    From what I have read, this precludes "Enable For Commenting".
    Is there a way to publish a password-protected document but have the users still be allowed to attach comments of their own (for their own use) ?
    Thanks,
    -Ed

    As soon as I enable commenting, the "encrypt with password" option is greyed-out so I cannot perform that action any more. Is there another way to encrypt it once comments have been anabled?
    I am using Acrobat Pro Version 9.2.0 on a Windows 7 machine.   I open a PDF with it, selectComments > Enable for COMmenting and Analisys.    Then Advanced > Security > Encrypt With Password is greyed out (was not prior to enable comments).

  • Adobe Reader not recognizing the (correct) password on a password protected document

    I have been opening password protected documents with Adobe Reader for months. My client just changed the password, and now, using the correct new password (I'm positive it's the correct password because I can open it on other computers, and no, my caps lock isn't on, and I've tried numerous times so it's not that I'm typing it incorrectly), Adobe is saying that the password is incorrect. Any ideas? I was thinking perhaps because I am on a Mac, or maybe because I have Adobe Reader and not the full version it isn't working... any help much appreciated!

    Reader should be fine. you don't need to full version to open password protected documents and a Mac doesn't make any difference either.
    Fist thing to be sure of is that it's actually Reader opening the docs and not Mac Preview (or something else).
    If it is, maybe try having them assign a different password. A more simplistic one just to see if you can open it.

  • Unable to activate after Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB2687455) is deployed

    I'm having a very strange issue with deploying the "Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB2687455)". Here's what I see:
    Deploying to a Windows 7 SP1 system fully patched as of 7/29/2013
    Using SCCM 2007 R3
    Task Sequence installs Office Professional Plus 2010
    Task Sequence installs Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB2687455)
    The Office Professional Plus 2010 install was configured to use our key using the Office Custimization Tool (setup.exe /admin)
    When I try to activate the suite using any of the installed applications (word, excel, outlook or powepoint) I get the error "An unspecified error has occurred. Your request cannot be processed at this time. Please try again later. (0x80070190)"
    If I repair the install then try the activation again it works right away. This is a good work around for single installs but for my needs of multiple system deployment and for pushing out the Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Office 2010 (KB2687455) to other systems
    in my environment this will not work.
    Can anyone please suggest a solution to this problem?
    Thank you,

    Hi
    According to my research, this issue occurs when one of the following conditions are true:
    If you have CD emulation software installed, a registry key is preventing the hardware ID from being acquired.
    A required registry key is not set correctly or is missing.
