Microsoft Office for Macbook Pro OSX Version 10.6.8

I just bought a refurbished macbook pro version 10.6.8, and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions concerning which version of microsoft office should I download? Thanks in advance!

There is only one: Office 2011 for OS X.
A free alternative to Office is Libre Office. It is about 95% compatible.

  • Microsoft Office for MacBook Pro

    What is the earliest version of Microsoft Office for Mac that is compatable with Power PC. My old version (2004) is not compatable with my new MacBook Pro

    Office 2004 Applications Won't Work in Lion
    You must have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite and will not work in Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion.
    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.)

    Hi, I'm trying to print from my Macbook Pro OSX (version 10.8.5) to my Dell 1355cn printer but it is not working. I have downloaded/ installed the appropriate driver software from the Dell website but when I go to print, the Mac says that it is completeing the task, but nothing happens with the printer. The printer does work and all cables are fine.

  • Microsoft Office for Macbook Air

    Hi
    I purchased microsoft office for my iMac last year.  I have now bought my daughter a Macbook Air.  Can I put the same version on her Macbook?  If so, how do I do it? Or do I have to purchase it all again?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I believe that Migration Assistant will allow you to copy all your apps from the iMac to the new MBA. Try it - that's the best way to ensure your license information transfers properly so that Office won't complain.
    You should also consider that there are alternatives to Office. Most are better and some are free. OpenOffice and LibreOffice are but two.

  • Microsoft Visio on MacBook Pro OSX

    Hi All,
    After I have been one month with brand New 15" MacBook Pro retina display, I set up windows into one part of my HDD.
    but I got a complain from my friend that Windows will kill my battery and fan, so I follow him by stop use windows on my Mac.
    then turn into VMWare Fusion for Microsoft Visio. Is it any one know any other OSX app can work similar like Microsoft Visio?
    Please advise all including Windows on my Mac and Windows on WMWare, what will be affect to my 15" MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

    Generally there should be no ill effect.  It could be the wrong version of VMWare.   I would consult with the VMWare forum if you are having trouble with it, or try Virtualbox instead, which is free.
    As for Visio comparable applications,
    Concept Draw's Visio 0 converter which converts all your Visio files to the crossplatform Concept Draw software.

  • Installing Microsoft Office on MacBook Pro

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a late 2011 15' MacBook Pro with 4 gb of ram and would like to purchase the 2011 Microsoft Office Suite for Mac, which is 3 gb.  If i download the suite, will my MacBook Pro slow down significantly as a result, or just occupy most of the free space?  Thanks much.

    If you got a late 2011 MBP then it came with either a 500GB or 750GB hard drive.
    Hard drive space is not Memory. It is Storage space. Memory is the amount of RAM installed in your system, which is 4GBs of RAM.
    So if you download MS Office 2011 for Mac that download will take up 3GBs of Storage Space.
    Then you need to install that group of programs. Installing iot will again use more Storage Space. About 3-4GBs.
    It will not use any memory, RAM, until you open, or run, one of those programs so can use it to view edit and create documents with them.
    You have plenty of hard drive space and enough Memory, RAM, to use any of those programs any time you like.

  • Microsoft office onto macbook pro with retina

    I recently purchased a macbook pro with retina and bought microsoft office as well. I signed up on microsoft and began to download microsoft office, but it's been in my DOWNLOADS area for a few days now and won't finish loading. I've tried going back to the site to download it again, but the other downloads are just as slow and don't finish.

    I have a wireless connection. I stopped the download and started it again and it seems to get stuck in the very beginning and not move.

    Dear Mandie 419,
    With the available new iWorks I think you may not need MS office. Try the following links:

  • Printers below $100 for Macbook Pro OSX 10.6.8

    I'm looking to finally purchase a printer, but am on a tight budget and am not tech savvy at all.  I prefer something that isn't too high tech that can print in color, maybe also scan and has low cost ink.  Any suggestions or pointers?

    I'm with cricketernot and suggest using a laser printer for printing, and then take a USB thumb drive to a drug store (or similar) photo printing service if you want color prints.
    Inkjet printers, especially color have down the road cost issues.  You have to buy multiple expensive ink cartridges and end up running out of just one color.  The inks you tend to get with the printer tend to be of limited capacity so that you quickly run out and need to buy more ink.
    Laser printers tend to last longer on 1 toner cartridge.  And if you get a printer with Postscript support, these printers generally continue to work long after the manufacturer stops developing drivers for your printer, as generic Postscript drivers are generally always available as part of the host OS.
    The next issue is how you intend to connect the printer to your Macbook Pro.  USB, which means you have to attached your Macbook Pro whenever you want to print.
    If your home router also has a built-in print server, then you need to find out what printers your router supports, as not all printers will be supported.
    If you are going to a printer with network support, then you need to decide if ethernet attached to your router is good enough, or if you need WiFi support in your printer.
    If you are also getting Scanner/FAX support in your printer, you should check the reviews to make sure it works with Mac OS X.  The ability to scan over the network, generally requires that the manufacture provide Mac OS X drivers, and often they need to update those drivers with each Mac OS X major release.

  • Free maintenance prog for MacBook Pro OSX Lion

    Can anyone advise the good ones?

    Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
    For disk repairs use Disk Utility.  For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior;  DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. Drive Genius provides additional tools not found in Disk Warrior.  Versions 1.5.1 and later are Intel Mac compatible.
    OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep.  Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts was significantly reduced since Tiger.  These utilities have limited or no functionality with Snow Leopard or Lion and should not be installed.
    OS X automatically defragments files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems. For more about malware see Macintosh Virus Guide.
    I would also recommend downloading a utility such as TinkerTool System, OnyX 2.4.3, or Cocktail 5.1.1 that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old log files and archives, clearing caches, etc.
    For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack.  If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the command line.  Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard. AppleJack 1.6 is compatible with Snow Leopard. There is no confirmation that this version also works with Lion.
    When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
    Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
    Carbon Copy Cloner
    Data Backup
    Deja Vu
    SuperDuper!
    SyncTwoFolders
    Synk Pro
    Synk Standard
    Tri-Backup
    Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
    Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.
    Referenced software can be found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.
    Be sure you have an adequate amount of RAM installed for the number of applications you run concurrently. Be sure you leave a minimum of 10% of the hard drive's capacity as free space.
