Microsoft docs to MAC

Hello
I currently have CS6- Design Standard for Microsoft 64 bit via Business license. Due to many issues with my current machine  I have been fast tracked to receive a Mac Book Pro. They currently are building my computer now.
How do I convert all my working documents to MAC OS? Do I need to do this prior to receiving my MAC or when I receive the MAC will it automatically convert when I open?
I have never used a MAC before, but it was the only option available at my company that could run: InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.
Also, I have self - taught myself how to use all my CS6 products via adobe tutorials.
I appreciate all advise and help.
Thank you

Files are cross-platform compatible, so aside from the usual issues with file paths and fonts there is nothing specific to consider.

  • Use docs on my iPhone 5 when they were created on MacBook Air using Microsoft Word for Mac

    I'm looking for a FREE solution for my iPhone 5.  I want to be able to read/edit/save on my iPhone 5 the  docs I created on Microsoft Word for Mac on my MacBook Air (running Mountain Lion).
    I would like to be able to sync the edited/saved docs back to my MacBook Air and be able to open/edit/save them in Microsoft Word for Mac.  I really want to make sure that my edited docs don't become unusuable when put back on my MacBook Air.  Thanks!
    Can someone give me a solution?

    Hi,
    I'm glad to hear you got the advice here, and we support Office for Windows in the current forum, if you have further question about Office for Mac, I suggest you post the question in Office for Mac forum:

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

  • Excel doc created on PC, edited on my Mac, sent back to PC won't print properly.  Do I have to buy Microsoft office for Mac?

    I have to complete their Excel form, send back, they add to it, they want to print it and say it won't print as I see it.  I don't want to buy Microsoft office for Mac just for this... any ideas?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    A couple of ideas... when you exported the document did you check "do compatibility check" for Word? If not that's probably it. Other solutions: - OpenOffice, or NeoOffice play well with MS Word. Either of them are free downloads.

  • Can you open with Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft word for Mac?

    Can you open in Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft Word for Mac?

    Pages '09 will open .doc files from Word 2004. The Mac OS is not what is in question. Pages '09 opens Word 2004 documents and if the same version of Pages will run in Lion and in Mountain Lion ..... Thats all that matters.
    I trust you were using MS Office 2004 and would now like to buy Pages?

  • PC Micorsoft Office compatilbility w/ Microsoft Office for Mac 2004

    My wife is considering purchasing a PC which will be compatible with the local community college prgrams, but our kids will use it and their school is Mac-based. The school uses Microsoft Office for Mac 2004.
    My question is: Will the Microsoft Office that comes installed on the new PC be compatible with the Mac's version. In other words, will my kids be able to type, say, a paper in Word on the PC at home and then take it to school and be able to work on it on a Mac?
    Thanks for any insight to this very basic question.

    *"Then why did it happen so, that when I sent a .doc file to my coworkers (using PC's and Vista) that I had created with my Word (from Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 package) some of the pictures where not showing at all"*
    You probably linked to the images, instead of embedding them in the document. Regardless, since Office is not an Apple product you'll probably want to post your question over on Microsoft's product forums for Mac: http://www.officeformac.com/productforums/

  • I was filling a form online, then I got to where I had to upload an Microsoft document but when I clicked on upload document I only had the option of uploading photos and videos, but not Microsoft doc. Please help.... How do I upload Microsoft doc related

    I was filling a form online, then I got to where I had to upload a Microsoft document but when I clicked on upload document I only had the option of uploading photos and videos, but not Microsoft doc. Please help.... How do I upload Microsoft doc  and other related office documents?

    tis true
    I know, I always do that but I was in a rush to get somewhere and I was relying on my thousand dollar Mac to do some kind of recovery or something. I know Microsoft always keeps temporary files (I think Mac does too, part of me asking here in this forum was for someone to tell me where I can find those files) and when you go to open Office Works then it gives you the option of opening the last recent documents, saved or not saved.
    I usually copy paste into my emial just in case something goes wrong with the created document but I just didn't have the time to login and do all that My loss, you live and you learn, BUT still if ANYONE got any info on this, PLEASE DO CHIME IN *keeping the hope alive*

  • Why is my Microsoft Office for Mac programs no longer compatible with 10.7 Lion?

    "Power PC applications no longer supported" the Microsoft Office Pack was Mac versions of Word, Powerpoint, etc. and when I downloaded Lion upgrade to operating system, it gave me message above. What's up wth that? Must I go buy a newer version of Microsoft Office for Mac or rely on Pages, which I like, but for ease of use between home and office, I also like to have Word. Anybody else having same issue?

    Neo Office
    OpenOffice
    Google Docs
    iWork
    Are all excellent alternatives for Office.
    Here's a full listing of Lion compatible applications:

  • Issues with Microsoft Word for mac closing when I try to open old or newly downloaded documents

    When I download a document from my professor, or try to open an older document, my word automatically quits. If it's already closed and I try to open a document, it will show the dot at the bottom of the icon that it's loading to open but it quickly disappears and quits itself. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know what I can do to fix it? Thanks.

    No it is not possible.
    You can use office for mac, on OSX, but not on windows.
    You need to use the windows version, on windows 7.

  • I lost my ability to use Microsoft Offic for Mac, when I upgraded my MAC from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion! HELP!

    HELP !
    After I upgraded my operating system on my mac, (from  Snow Leopard (10.6 ? ) to Mountain Lion (10.8.2), virtually ALL of my documents (recipes, update logs, information of untold things), have been denied to me with my Microsoft Word for Mac (which I have used since I purchased my mac in Aug.2008).
          I now get a window that tells me "You can't open the application "Microsoft Word" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." (Needless to say, I cannot use Excel or anything else, either!)
          Yet, I can still access them, fully (read and even print fro them), individually, by dragging a file into my PREVIEW program!
          What gives?
          I am not a savvy programmer, nor do I confess to somehow being warned that this might happen when I upgraded my operating system.
         Is there any reasonable (easier?) way to continue the use of these (to me) very important files? I only upgraded because I upgraded my iPhone to a 4S and wanted everything to conform to  siimilar circumstances!
         What can I DO?

    You need to upgrade your copy of MS Office. You're using a version that is 8 years old (at least). You can buy Office 2011, which will work. You could also get a copy of Pages from the App Store, which is cheaper and will open Word files (though not perfectly). Or you could get a free Office clone, like OpenOffice or LibreOffice.

  • I upgraded my Mac from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I did have Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 in my applications and now get a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported."

    I just upgraded my MAC from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  When I try to access my Microsoft Office for MAC (2004 edition) files I am getting a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported.  How can I access all of my save Word documents?  I just want to be able to retrieve all of my documents that were in Microsoft Office for Mac (2004).  If I purchase the newest version of MS office for Mac from Apple will I be able to retrieve my old documents?

    Use any number of free alternatives to your nearly decade old version of MS Office.
    Consider
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice (free)
    OpenOffice (free)
    In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for years. Life is better without Microsoft.

  • Microsoft Office for Mac open recent File menu option causing AFP to crash

    Hi all,
    We have an Xserve running Mac OS X Server Leopard 10.5.8. The Xserve hosts three file shares for about 60 users. Our network is 99% Mac based running mostly 10.5.8 with a few 10.6.x. We have historically over the past several years had the AFP service become unreliable and crash frequently. Late last week the AFP service crashes constantly. The quick solution to getting it up and running is to delete the AFP.conf file in /etc.
    We have troubleshot one cause of AFP crashing to the Open Recent... File menu option in Microsoft Office for Mac applications. That is, through some amount (haven't been able to narrow it down to how much) of opening documents on the share via the Open Recent menu the AFP service will crash.
    Here's what's happening in the AppleFileServer .crash file:
    Process: AppleFileServer [26065]

    Our solution is to have all our users turn off the open recent option in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Not an ideal solution but it may get the AFP service running "good enough."
    Has anyone had an experience like this before or can anyone duplicate the AFP service crashing when trying to open documents on a share via the open recent menu? Any other ideas?
    Thanks

    Update.
    I have been able to consistently reproduce a problem where the AFP service will crash if a file that a user has an alias to is moved to a folder and the user is denied access to .
    1. On your Mac create an alias to a file or folder, that you have access to, that is stored on a share served via AFP. The alias can be in the Places section of a Finder window, on the Desktop, or anywhere an alias can be created. Lets call what the alias points to the target.
    2. Move the target to a folder on the AFP share and deny the user or group Read & Write access to that folder.
    3. Try accessing the target via the alias created in step 1.
    The AFP service should crash.
    Can anyone reproduce this crash scenario too?

    This is the Microsoft forum site that parallels what Apple has:

    It's not uncommon for MS employees who work with the Mac side of the business to help there. All in all a useful resource for Office:Mac
