What version of MicroSoft Office is compatable with Mavericks?

What version of Microsoft Office is compatable with Mavericks?

Office 2004 will not run under Mavericks. If you are running Entourage, you will need to verify your data first. If you upgrade and try to import and it fails, it's difficult to recover your data. Both Entourage 2008 and Office 2011 will import a good Entourage 2004 Identity. Mail requires Entourage to be open to import so you should upgrade to Mail first if you plan on using Mail. Note: Office 2011 H&S version does not contain Outlook. You have to purchase H&B to get Outlook.
While Office 2008 works there are a few quirks under Mavericks.
Office 2008 apps open with new window after upgrading to Mavericks
Office 2011 has features like Sync to Apple applications that no longer works because those features no longer exist in Mavericks.
Sync Basics
CalDAV & CardDAV are protocols used by Apple, Google, Yahoo and others to sync contacts and calendars. Neither Entourage 2008 nor Outlook 2011 support CalDAV or CardDAV.
Apple removed sync in Mavericks with iTunes.
You can no longer sync with an iPhone or iPad via iTunes. You can only sync with an iPhone or iPad via a cloud-based service like iCloud or Google.
You can no longer sync local calendars with OS X Calendar (formerly iCal). You can, however, continue to sync calendars hosted on a cloud-based service like iCloud or Google with Apple's Calendar.
You can no longer sync with any third-party apps running on your Mac that use Sync Services, like Entourage or Outlook.
If you want to stick with Outlook, I suggest you look at Office 365 if you need sync for contacts and calendars. Otherwise, moving to Apple Mail, Contacts and Calendar with iCloud might be a better option for you.
Until Microsoft adds CalDAV and CardDAV support to Outlook, there is no way to sync other than get an Exchange account. It's $4/month Exchange Online.
A new version of Office for Mac is scheuduled for release later this year or early next year. Speculation is it will be by subscription only. If you are considering purchasing Office 2011, I would check out this deal that would auto upgrade you to the newest version when it's released.

  • What version of Microsoft Office works on the Intel MacBook Pro?

    Any info is appreciated.
    Dual 1.42   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Why on earth are people suggesting anything other
    than Office? The original post asked which version
    runs. Answer, as previously given, is X or 2004. On
    an Intel chip there is absolutely no issue with
    performance under Rosetta.
    David. Your statement is incorrect. There is an issue with performance under Rosetta. It is clearly slower then it should run if it was a Universal Application. I feel it is important for anyone to understand that its performance is not up to speed of other programs. I amongst many users have problems with Office 2004. For the most part they are not problems that are life altering and require hours upon hours to create simple documents, but enough problems that make the overall experience rather unpleasant. You cannot generalize your performance of Office across all users, just as much as I cannot generalize that all users report problems.
    Clearly there was a distinct question, but the VALUE of the answer cannot be appreciated without many helpful members giving their opinions (generally appreciated by most) as to "what works best" on the MacBook Pro.
    You can chastise people for not answering the questions to a "T", but I think if you really want to scrutinize the ENTIRE thread you should really ask... "Why didn't the poster just google search, or search apple.com?" The answer is easily found there. There is no value in the answer "yes or no", the answer to the post comes from people putting their opinions and experience on the forum so that one can make an educated judgement about the product.
    And just remember... it's not just the original poster that you're helping; other people read this too.

  • Is mountain lion compatible with old (2004) version of microsoft office for MAc?

    I have heard that Mountain Lion is not compatible with old (2004) version of microsoft office for MAc. Is that true?

    ... unless, like me, you open up an uber-important Excel 2004 file in Excel 2011 and get the following dialog box which leads to a trashed Chart, which I need access to EVERY WEEK:
    Can't say I've ever seen such error messages, and I've opened lots of files created back in OS 8. Also many more much older than that from Windows 95 and even MS-DOS.
    Lucky for you; unlucky for me that an important Excel 2004 Chart gets corrupted when opened in Excel 2011! 
    I suspect the problem is in the conversion routine that Microsoft added to Office 2011 to update Excel 2004 files.  How conversant are you historically with converting Excel 2004 files that contain charts to Excel 2011?  Because your experience with OS 8, Windows 95 and even MS-DOS has no relevance on this issue.
    Kurt Lang wrote:
    You will notice, Kurt, that I based my advice to the OP as "if you are unable or unwilling to upgrade to Microsoft Office 2011..."
    Yes, I saw it. But if everyone did what you would expect with your statement, no one would suggest upgrading to Office 2011. Besides, you're the one who stated "unable or unwilling", not the OP.
    Are you always this argumentative, or is this my lucky day?
    Many people suggest upgrading to Office 2011. I do it frequently in my other "workarounds" type of answers to the Rosetta in Lion/Mountain problem.  I chose not to offer that solution here, and as I expected, someone else, namely you, did!
    The problem was that you finished your suggestion with this comment: "Particularly when it isn't really necessary."  Since this statement was not true in my case (it IS necessary for me to continue to use my important Excel 2004 file as well as some other historical files I have; and conceivably could be important to the OP), I posted the correction.
    You also made the suggestion that: "...the cost of VM software isn't that much less than just upgrading to Office 2011." While certainly true in the vacuum of the OP asking specifically about Word 2004; when the OP becomes aware that his complete library of PPC applications will fail in Mountain Lion, your suggestion about the relative cost to upgrade may no longer be as relevant.
    Lastly: Yes, I commonly state to similar OP's that if they are "unable" (because, for example, they may also have conversion problems with Office 2011, Appleworks 6, Freehand or other programs) or "unwilling" (perhaps they just cannot afford to upgrade all of their PPC apps at this time), that here is an alternative that will keep the status quo available to them, and buy them some more time to consider their options while continuing to use Lion/Mountain Lion and their PowerPC apps.
    Is the relevance of my post to the OP's problem (and your reply to my solution) sufficiently clear for you now?

    Apple, now loosing old supporters and customers ? Or am I getting too old ?
    A 4 year old Macbook Pro should run Lion. Unless its a CoreDue and not a Core2Duo. Remember that PPC computers can not even run Snow Leopard. This was when Apple announced that support for PPC programs would be phased out. Office 2004 is almost 8 years old now. Twice as old as your computer you say needs to be replaced. I can't believe people rush in to install a new system without doing a little bit of research, and the dropping of Rosetta to run old PPC programs was well advertised if you read up on Lion, as was the introduction of Mission Control and Versions. I even read up about them, and I'm not a professional like some who come here. May pay to remember to research in future releases.
    Good Luck

  • Microsoft Office Excel - compatibility Checker message in BPC 7.5

    Hello Experts,
    We are using BPC 7.5 M with Office 2007 on Application Server, we have upgraded from BPC 5.1 with Office 2003 where Dimension were of .xls and templates & Reports were of .xlt (office 2003 format) , After upgrade we have not done any changes in Dimension, Templates, reports version and they all are in .xls (Dimension) & .xlt (templates & reports) version
    We are getting a error while saving a dimension in Admin module (by clicking on "Save to Server" link):
    Microsoft Office Excel - compatibility Checker
    Significant loss of functionality
    Some cells have overlapping conditional formatting ranges.
    Earlier version of Excel will not evaluate all of the conditional
    formatting rules on the overlapping cells. The overlapping
    cells will show different conditional formatting.
    Do we need to convert the dimension files in 2007 format (.xlsx) or how to avoid the above told message while saving dimension file.
    Thanks,
    Rohit

    Hi Rohit Khatak,
    Could you solve your problem? I'm having this issue while processing ACCOUNT dimension (and only ACCOUNT) on Development environment, and nothing was changed at the server.
    Every time I try to save, I receive this compatibility error, and when I press "Continue", the file gets with a strange format. If I press the save again, it stil gives me the same error.
    I already tryed to process the dimension, to Refresh Dimension Members, and the error persists.
    Is there a way to solve this problem at BW side? On RSD1 maybe?
    Thanks in advance.
    Yours,
    Adriano

  • What versions of Photoshop Elements are compatible with Windows 8?

    What versions of Photoshop Elements are compatible with Windows 8?

    Microsoft advises that all versions of PSE except versions 1, 3, 5 & 6 will work with Windows 8. The best option is a new computer with W8 and then do a clean install of Elements. Some difficulties may arise if upgrading the operating system on top of existing software. In those circumstances make sure you have your original disks or your download package, in case a re-install is necessary.

  • G560: How to activate the trial version of Microsoft Office?? Phone Support a Disaster

    I bought my wife a Lenovo G3560 for Christmas.  In attempting to set up the computer, I was instructed to enter the product key from an enclosed card to activate the trial version of Microsoft Office.
    There was no card.
    On the first attempt to get phone help from Lenovo, I couldn't seem to get the person on the phone to understand I was trying to activate a trial version of Office. 
    On the second attempt, my son (who is a bit more computer-savvy than I), phoned, and was told there is no trial version, we have to purchase a key for the full version from Microsoft.
    On the third attempt, I requested a supervisor.  While I was on hold, I finally figured out that the information on the computer was wrong.  No card is needed -- the trial version opens after hitting Start, then "all programs" and then scrolling down to "Microsoft Office Starter."  Why this information was not provided is unclear.  Why clearly incorrect information was provided is utterly mysterious.
    By the way, the Lenovo spell checker does not recognize the word "Lenovo."
    This is my first day with a Lenovo product.  It does not auger well.
    Moderator edit: subject added to subject line for clarity

    Just as a suggestion - when your Office trial is up - check out www.openoffice.org 
    They have a free Office Suite that is reallly very decent.  Best of all it is FREE! 

  • Is Microsoft Office 2008 compatible with OS X Yosemite?

    Is Microsoft Office 2008 compatible with OS X Yosemite? My Word, Excel and PowerPoint files won't open since updating my OS.

    Your Office installation sounds corrupted. I would reinstall Office, but you must first do a complete removal of it. I did not write this note, but it should apply to Office 2008. You will just need to locate the version equivalents at the MS site. You might also check inside the Office 2008 folder for an uninstaller.
    Your MS Office 2011 may have become corrupted.  Reinstalling Office 2011 can address problems that you may be experiencing.
    First - find your Office 2011 install disc with the product key # - and only then remove Office according to MS instructions
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768.
    Or go here to DianefromOregon's site for help removing Office 2011: http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/.
    Then Reinstall from DVD
    Then enter your Product #
    After successfully reinstalling Office 2011, update your Office product using the Software update within Office called Microsoft Update or going to the Help menu within Word or Excel or PowerPoint and select Update.
    It may take a few times before you get to final upgrade to current Office version.
    It should be 14.4.8 as of current date.

    Or you can do all of this manually:
    Uninstalling Software: The Basics
    Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash.  Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder.  Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space.  If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
    Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application.  In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
    Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder.  You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder.  You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder.  Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
    Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item.  Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder.  Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences.  Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab.  Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
    Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS.  Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
    If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.  Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default.  You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
    Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder.  Usually with the same name as the program or the developer.  The item generally has a ".pkg" extension.  Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
    There are many utilities that can uninstall applications.  Here is a selection:
        1. AppZapper
        2. AppDelete
        3. Automaton
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller
      10. Spring Cleaning
