Microsoft 8.1 on My Mac

I purchases Windows 8.1 from Microsoft and want to install it on my iMac with Parallels. It says I need a .iso file, but I have a .exe file. How do I get an .iso file from a .exe file?

your best bet is to download virtualbox and install it that way
though if it's an exe it's not a full version but and upgrade so you need to install a full version in the
virtualbox first

    You need to install Office on the computer from the installer DVD or disc image you purchased.

  • Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2?  If yes, then how?  I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

    Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

    No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
    If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

  • I m trying to install microsoft xp on my new Mac

    I m trying to install microsoft xp on my new Mac, however after completing the xp installation it now say i need to have windows 7 instead of xp and hence i m not able to use my Mac OS now . Please let me know if I can use xp or in worst case scenario if I need to reinstall window please let me know how to do that now ?

    boot from mac os dvd, go until top meny appears, select disk utility from there, repair HD in whole, quit disk utilities, run startup disk, select OS X to boot from, quit, quit installer
    it will reboot in mac os x, go utilities - bootcamp assistant, remove bootcamp partition, reboot
    select one of VM solutions:
    VMWare or Parallels - commercial
    VirtualBox - free
    Use it.
    I personally don't like other variants like Wine etc

    I can see my folders by clicking the X next to my name on the Inbox Folder.  So I have my folders now, just cannot see them in the left colum or see multiple windows on Outlook.  At this point, I can use the folders, just with limited functionality.  Thanks -Gina

  • Does anyone know how I install Microsoft office onto an I Mac or if I even need it.

    Does anyone know how I install Microsoft office onto an I Mac or if I even need it.

    If you need to write or modify documents made with Word, Excel, or Powerpoint, then you need Office. Otherwise, you don't. If you already have it then installation just involves double-clicking on the Office Installer's icon.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

  • Downgrade Microsoft Remote Desktop Client for Mac

    Is there a way to downgrade to a previous version of the microsoft remote desktop client for mac? We are experiencing issues with one of our published remote apps (regarding window focus i.e. which window of the open application is at the front of the
    users screen) since upgrading to 8.0.9. This application was OK in 8.0.5. Can we revert to an older version?

    We are also experiencing similar issues regarding window sizes and display settings with our remote resources, since upgrading. We are using remote desktop application for iPhone/iPad. Upon opening of our Remote App, although we have set the command-line
    argument to open to full screen, we see the application resizing 3 times before it finally opens - and it does not open in full screen. Please assist.

  • Problem connect to my office PC with Microsoft Remote Desktop from my MAC OSX 10.9.1

    When I try to connect, I get the following message "Java (TM) is required to display some items on this page"  and then a prompt to install Java, which I did already, and verified that it is running on my machine.  I have downloaded Chrome

    Hi,
    As far as I know, Java is not required for the Microsoft Remote Desktop client for Mac.
    Please make sure that you download and install this App for the link below.

    How can I get to install Microsoft Office 2011 in my Mac OS X 10.6.8 if when down to "writing package scripts" it fails ?

    Contact Microsoft support and ask for help.  You've paid for the kit, so installation-time support is part of the expectations.  They'll probably suggest a Repair Permissions and a Verify Disk pass, both performed by booting the installation DVD and using Disk Utility from the Utilities menu item, and selecting those two repairs.

  • Microsoft Publisher files on a Mac

    Does anyone know if there is an application that can open and/or edit a Microsoft Publisher file on a Mac?
    Thanks very much.
    All the best,

    There is not. The closest thing would be the Pub2ID extension for Adobe InDesign from Markzware. It allows you to convert pub files to InDesign files.

  • Cannot open downloaded Microsoft Office 2011 on my Mac

    I recently downloaded Microsoft Office 2011 on my Mac (running OS 10.6.8).  I keep getting a message that says there is no application that can open the program.  I have managed to get an image by trying to open the .dmg file in disk utility, but when I try again to install, it still says no application can open it.  Disk utility says that the file looks "ok."  I've checked with Microsoft and they say I ought to be able to open it.  Is there anything I can do?

    Most apps use the Installer.app located in /System/Library/CoreServices/ to open installers. Launch that manually, then drop the Office installer app on top of its Dock icon. If that doesn't work, Reinstall Mtn Lion, starting with the latest update, 10.8.5 COMBO update.

    i have microsoft word installed on my mac book pro and everytime i open my computer it opens to, have can i make it stop?

    u should go to the apple icon on menu bar and then go to "Force Quit" and then select the application u want to quit. if u did, microsoft word won't appear again when u open. make sure that before u shut down ur mac, u need to force quit to make sure the applications u opened wil not appear when u start mac. good luck..
