Microsoft Office:mac vX Compatibility

I am considering upgrading from an iMac OS10.1.5 to the iMac OS10.4 Tiger computer. Will my Office:mac vX still run on the Tiger computer?

Hi Bobbie Holaaday;
May I welcome you to the Apple Discussion Forums.
I am afraid I am not able to answer your question about Office:mac vX because I refuse to allow anything from Microsnot on my Macs.
I would says that upgrading from 10.1.5 is a good plan. I think anything older than 10.2.8 is beta code. My experience with all of the earlier releases were that they were slow and unstable.

  • Why can't I open a PDF in Word?  I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011

    Why can't I open a PDF document in Word.  I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011 installed because I have to email PDF and word documents to my clients.  Please help. 
    I currently have been viewing them in Preview.  Is that the only way? 

    Word is a text processor, not a PDF viewer. You can embed a PDF document in a Word document, but that's pretty much it. Besides Preview there are numerous third-party applications that can also view PDFs such as Adobe Reader.

  • Installing Microsoft Office:mac 2004 Student and Teacher Edition

    I am trying to install Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student and teacher edition.
    I don't know how to achieve this.
    I have tried the Office Setup Assistant but it says "You can't open the application "Office Setup Assistant" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported.
    So, I assume I have to do the "Drag the Microsoft Office 2004 folder to your hard disk to install all Office components" option.
    Being very new to iMac, my question is, "Where exactly do I drag it to?  Which icon along the bottom or should it go somewhere else?
    Any help would be great
    Thanks

    It will not work with Mountain Lion. You need Office 2011 for OS X.
    Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
    If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain 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/Mountain 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.
    As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

  • Where can I download a digital Microsoft Office Mac 2011 for macbook air. I have a key product at hand.

    where can I download a digital Microsoft Office Mac 2011 for macbook air. I have a key product at hand.

    While they certainly don't make it clear, if you actually select the link on CNET, it's only an update file (Office2011-1434UpdateEN.dmg) which is listed on Microsoft's site:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads?pid=Mactopia_Office2011&fid=ECF3967A-2593 -4E94-8670-CE555E20047F
    They used to allow for a trial download, but I haven't been able to track that down in a while.  If the original poster has their key, it can be downloaded directly from Microsoft here:

  • I deleted my microsoft office:mac 2011 word from my toolbar. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.8.  I tried to reinstall but it won't work. I get an error message each time. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I deleted my microsoft office:mac 2011 word from my toolbar. I have Mac OS X version 10.6.8.  I tried to reinstall but it won't work. This has never happened before.  I get an error message each time. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I don't have time machine. 

    By Toolbar, do you mean the Dock?  The Translucent bar normally at the bottom of the screen, but sometimes at the right or left side?
    If that's what you mean, the Dock is merely a shortcut to what is already inside the Applications folder's Microsoft Office 2011 folder.  If you have Word inside your Microsoft Office 2011 folder, you can drag it back to the Dock.
    If you deleted the Microsoft Office folder, or it is empty, you'll have to reinstall it. 
    If you don't have your registration code, you'll have to call Microsoft for a new one.

    I spent a lot of time trying to find a solution before buying.  I did not try the launch terminal solution....

    More possible bad news.  If you had followed what fane_j had asked you to do you might have found out it wasn't microsoft's fault for your problem and wouldn't have had to spend $150.  Because while you may have an Office that works, fane_j was not suggesting a solution but probing for a trojan (google "flashback trojan") that has been crashing powerpc code which is what Office 2004 is.
    So if you do have the trojan, while you can run a version of Office, the trojan may still be in your system since installing a version of Office isn't going to remove it.  So I'll make another request.  Launch Terminal (in your Utilities folder) and copy/paste the following line into the terminal window and hit return:
    defaults read ~/.MacOSX/environment
    If you see anything other than a "does not exist" error message you almost certainly do have the trojan and post the results in this thread.
    The choice is yours.  You can ignore this and take the risk.  Or do what has been requested.

  • Help: My dock froze while installing Microsoft office: Mac

    I was installing Microsoft Office 2008: Mac when the downloader got stuck at a certain point and the estimated time until finish is only increasing and the download bar is not moving. I tried to open up Firefox while this was happening and this resulted in me Force Quitting firefox and left me with a "Frozen Dock"
    How should I handle this situation and should i cancel the download for office because their website says that i am entitled to a new product key since the download did not work.
    Note: the microsoft office: mac that i am installing is from a disk, not the internet.

    Theisen,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Your post is a little confusing, first you say you were installing MS Office via a downloader and then later you say you are installing it from a Disc. If you installing it via the install disc the you are doing just that, installing not downloading.
    Also when doing an installation it's generally not a good idea to be working in other applications as it seems you were by trying to use Firefox.
    My recommendation would be to restart your computer and ONLY run the MS Office installation per the instructions MS provides. Do not have any other applications running. If it still fails then contact MS, you should be able to find the number in the documentation you received with the product. After you have installed it then run updates for it to ensure you are on the most up-to-date version which is currently 12.2.4.
    Regards,
    Roger

  • Issues between Microsoft Office:mac 2004 (Student) and Korean Language

    I use Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student edition on my iMac. For a Korean class I'm taking I type in Korean on Microsoft Word for Mac 2004 (student edition) and as to be expected Word indecates the spelling is wrong. I have tried to change the proofing setting so Word will Proof in Korean but I have been unsucessful. What can I do (or get or download) to get Word for Mac to proof Korean? If you think you may be able to help me but you find his message to be somewhat hard to understand please email me at [email protected] and I will to explain my issue more clearly.

    Best ask in the newsgroups which MS runs for its products:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups
    Are you sure the stuff you want exists? My info is that Office 2004 comes with proofing tools for English, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, German, Danish, Swedish, Portuguese, Finnish, and Dutch. No Korean or Chinese.

  • Microsoft Office:Mac for iPad2

    I recently installed Microsoft Office:Mac on my iMac. It came with license to install to up to 3 computers. I want to download it to my iPad 2 so that I can use Excel, Word & PowerPoint on it. Is that possible? Does anyone know how to do this? Thank you.

    Short answer. You can't. Different operating systems. The OS X version of Office will simply not run on an iOS device and there is no iOS version of  Office. There are rumors Microsofty is working on it but no cigar yet.

  • IPhone4 syncing with MacPro microsoft Office mac 2011 Outlook

    I'm unable to get my new i Phone 4 to sync with my Mac Book Pro using "Microsoft Office Mac 2011", "Outlook" for my email, calendar, contacts & tasks. Can someone help me?

    I am having the same issues as you are and I spent about an hour on the phone with Microsoft Office yesterday and they told me that they are still working on a program to resolve this issue. It would have been nice if Apple did not authorize this product until all features where available.
    I have many entries in my outlook calendar to transfer it all to ical, as well, i run a business so i do not want meeting invites coming from my mobile.me account - does not look professional. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue until Microsoft comes out with an update for calendars?

  • Microsoft Office:mac 2011 want work with my script made in Microsoft Windows. May  be there is a file Problem.

    Hello!
    Two years ago i made a script with a microsoft windows PC, using "Office Word".
    Last year i changed my Hardware into apple Mac ,using Yosemite 10.10.3.
    To work on with my script with apple i use Microsoft Office:mac 2011 Home and Student, but it want work. It is deeply frozen and very very slow. Mouse is not working normally. Pages are scrolling automatically. There is a Problem in kompatilibility between the file of my script (written by using a microsoft PC) and the apple computer e.g. Office:mac.
    Someone who can help?
    Ev

    Apple support is not an expert source for Microsoft scripts, if Microsoft can't figure out their own software you'll just have to wait until someone who has had, and cured the issue.
    Sorry.

  • Microsoft Office:Mac 2004 under Yosemite

    I know it's very (very) old, but I've been happily running Microsoft Office:Mac 2004 under Snow Leopard and am finally in a position to upgrade to Yosemite. I've found workarounds for all my other important legacy software but was wondering if it's even remotely possible to run Word:Mac 2004 and Excel:Mac 2004 under the new OS?
