Microsoft Word and iPads

I am studying abroad this summer and want to take my iPad with me instead of my computer. I will need to be able to write papers, and was wondering if you can get Microsoft Word on the iPad or if there is another option. My dad said that Pages is similar, but it does not convert well. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I use documents to go and it meshes very well with word.
not a free app but not as expensive as a subscription to office 365 - which is what you need if you want to use mobile word as anything but a viewer

Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

Can I open iPad keynote and iPad pages on a PC Microsoft word and a PC Microsoft PowerPoint? also the other way around?

Yes. You can export iPad Pages and Keynote files as Word and PowerPoint files and you can upload/transfer/email Word and PowerPoint files to the iPad and work on them in Pages and Keynote.
Be advised that there will be some degree of formatting issues and also that the iOS versions of Pges and Keynote do not the full functionality of Word and PowerPoint on a computer.

Hi Mike,
I've checked your account. I see that you just purchased the subscription this morning. The order is still pending processing, which is why you haven't yet been able to log in an use your subscription. It can take 24-48 hours for a subscription to process fully. Once it does, you'll be able to log in and convert files.
I apologize for the inconvenience.
Best,

What does Mac or apple use for microsoft word and excel?

What do I need to buy or download to get Microsoft word and excel and PowerPoint ?

Microsoft makes an Apple version of Office here:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/H2437LL/A/microsoft-office-for-mac-home-and-st udent-2011-family-pack
In my humble opinion, Apple's product is better - and completely compatible with Office. It is also about 1/2 as expensive:

Microsoft Word and Excel...poof! Gone from my dock.

I accidentially dragged microsoft word and excel off the dock and it poofed into nowhere. I found it elsewhere, and dragged it to the desktop. Tried to open it and got the "application microsoft word quit unexpectedly". So I dragged it down to the dock, and the same thing happened. I checked the trash, and I didn't throw it away, and even if I did I didn't empty the trash. Also, I tried to open both a word and excel document, and got the same message that the application quit unexpectedly. I'm at my wits end. Somebody please help me!

First, make sure you have the latest updates for Office.
Second, try reinstalling Office.
Third, try opening them in another account. If it works in another user account, then it is something in Office's preferences.
I have found that when Microsoft products get a bee in their bonnet, nothing can fix it beyond reinstall (even then there are problems).

I downloaded updates for "Office for Mac" a few days ago and it won't finish. It keeps saying I have to close Safari, Microsoft Word and Microsoft Powerpoint and I don't have any of these open. Can anybody help me?

Hi Anne,
Did you do this through one of the Office app updates, or did you download it directly from the Microsoft website?
Whichever way you tried it, I would try it the opposite way this time, although simply repeating what you did before may also work.

Microsoft word and photoshop are not supported.

Installed mac os lion now Microsoft word and photoshop not supported.

Lion does not support PowerPC coded applications. It sounds like the version you have are too old and were coded for PowerPC. Upgrade them.

You need to upgrade to Office 2008 or newer, or switch to a product such as OpenOffice or iWork.

Can Microsoft Word and Excel be migrated to mac pro?

Can Microsoft Word and Excel be migrated to mac pro?

You can also install Windows (new activation copy) on your Mac and use Windows natively, or for 99.9% of running Office apps, run Windows as a guest VM is fine. The data can be opened and edited and exported back to native Office format and opened in OpenOffice and others, or in Pages and Numbers, though whether those are satisfactory solutions or not you'll have to decide.
If you have a copy of Office that includes PC and mobile devices and Mac? like Office 365 for 5 devices?
But the actual apps of course are platform / OS specific.
And right now if you are running Windows 8.1 for instance, you can download the ISO and install Windows 10 Technical Preview (very nice btw, combines a lot of desired features). Have only run into one small problem in using it so far.
VirtualBox is free Oracle VM or there are commercial VM products. To run Windows natively you just use a Mac utility, Boot Camp Assistant, to partition a drive (internal) and to install and provides Mac specific drivers.

Is there a resource where I can see if my older versions of applications will work after upgrading to 10.8 from 10.6.8? I have some older Mac apps as well as things like Microsoft word and Adobe professional.
