El Capitan does support MS Office for Mac 2008?

I have MS Office for Mac 2008 installed on my MBP that is running Mountain Lion.  I am considering upgrading to El Capitan, but wonder if MS Office 2008 is always executed with this upgrade.  I'm reluctant to upgrade to the current version because of the expense of MS Office, and also my wife prefers to stay with the version she knows well.

I suspect that I should ask this question on a site of MS, but starts here in the hope that someone will have a quick answer before I allow myself to Ms.

Yes, he does.

  • How to install Office for Mac 2008 on El Capitan 10.11.3?

    I'd love to help on how to install my Office for Mac 2008 software on my new MacBook Pro. When I run the installation I get the error message "Setup could not install the software because there's no software to install" who says a guy from Microsoft's Support could be because I was running the disc via remote disc from my old MacBook. He added that Yosemite is the latest OS to support the 2008 Microsoft software. Does anyone know if there is a way around this?

    You may be able to create an iso from the installation disc, and then move the iso to your MacBook Pro and run it from there. RoaringApps.com said it should work in El Capitan without problem but I still do not believe their results.

    MS Office 2011 is still supported by Microsoft.

    I works fine on my MacBook Pro mid-2012 13 "run macOS Sierra.

    I upgraded to El Capitan, and it did not affect MS Office 2011.

    All you have to do is to install the updates for MS Office 2011.

    If MS Office breaks all what you need to do is reinstall Office 2011 but it will work with macOS Sierra.

  • Transfer from old office for Mac to new Mac Air

    Hi, I just got a new Mac Air and have my old office for Mac on a hard drive. I am able to transfer to my new computer and re - install?

    It really depends on how's old office.  Office 2008, no.    Office 2011, you need to upgrade to a free update specific as explains it my tip:

    http://discussions.Apple.com/docs/doc-8811

    There are free alternatives to the office so

    Alternatives to Microsoft Office

    Documents you should be able to open with any version of office.   It's just the version of Office that makes the difference on El Capitan.

  • the backup of Microsoft Office for Mac to iCloud

    I can't save my documents from within Microsoft Office for Mac on my iMac in the iCloud?  Does anyone have a suggestion?    "HE."

    iCloud does not offer the ability to save a Mac computer. You can save an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch to iCloud.

    If you have the Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud drive turned on, you should be able to save a document from the desktop to the folder of iCloud drive or drive movement documents previously saved to other folders to iCloud. You can go to Finder preferences > Sidebar (at the top of the preferences window) and put a checkmark in front of iCloud drive in this window that make it easier. Note that save or move the files to the folder of the iCloud drive will keep a copy on your local disk and synchronize in iCloud. It is not the same as having a backup because if you accidentally delete the local copy, the copy on iCloud is also deleted.

  • Office 365 for Mac, compared to Office for Mac 2016

    Thank you in advance.  Background: on my MBP 2014, I installed initially Office 2011 and well just a bit awkward it was great.  About a month ago, with the release, I'm subscribed to Office 365 personal (including Outlook) for Mac (~$70/yr).  Functions are acceptable for good, really no complaints.  I'm a professor and psychologist and count on my desk intensively. So, a more personal and technical question:

    (1) what are the essential differences in the professional features 365 vs 2016 products (Office in the box)?

    (2) I recently discovered that I have access to Office for Mac 2016 family and professional that I can get through a MS discount at $9.99 per year.  This is a "local installation" and includes the Office suite basic as above.  I'm a fool to pay $70 to 365 when I can get _presumptively_ the equivalent of Office for Mac 2016 for $10?

    Vive and TY!

    I can't speak for Mac versions, but I'm familiar with versions of Windows. Subscription Office 365 service is an annual payment, but as long as you're subscribed, the software will continue to be updated behind the scenes. I am as well, Professor in business technology, and we have students here at the College use Office 365. They get the version of the University, which is the same as Office Professional, and they can get a subscription to 4 years for a reduced price. That started with the Windows version of office 2013, and now they get the upgrade to Office 2016. Have you checked with your TI University Department to see if you have access to the software through the University and Microsoft volume licensing? Who can usually net you have the full professional version for little or no cost.

    DOE this office for Mac 2016 Home and Business provide you with all the software you need? Many lesser versions contain no Outlook or Access, but if they contain all the software you use and that you need, then it should be an easy decision.

  • InDesign CS4 is compatible with Office for Mac 2011?

    As someone who never places Office as text in InDesign, I also never considered from the "compatibility" between all versions of the suites two application. Is the Office of critical formatting? Unless you have some developed in the game style-mapping import regime, why not just save the Office document as text and place that?

    What is meant by Linksys with ADSL support IP TV?

    Just spoke with the guy from Linksys. WAG320N really does not support IPTV. And more Linksys not all router ADSL with IPTV (line new WAG). In my opinion, it is not good for brend like Cisco. I was belived in Cisco. But now, I'm very angry. Before buying I cannot find any information on IPTV on Linksys website. Announced just as «...» Ideal for applications focused on media like streaming video, games and voice over IP telephony... ». Now... I'm not sure it's true... And maybe another stanza on Linksys web is just a myth.

  • What is the difference between Office 2008 for Mac and Office for Mac home & edition student?

    Hello
    I think buying or the other, but do not understand what the difference is. In the description they say that Office 2008 contains Microsoft Server Exchange Support and Automator Actions for Workflows in Microsoft Office in addition to the standard programs. I also know that the support of Microsoft Exchange Server is required for some advanced features of Entourage to work, but I don't know what are the characteristics and also what Automator Actions? I want to make a decision about whether or not I need those. Also, I have Office 2001, so if I buy a new Office 2008 will be all the data that I have in Entourage, including contacts, emails, categories and calendar transfer safely to the Entourage again?

  • El Capitan does support multiple iTunes accounts?

    Hello

    As I was updating my Macbook Air (2011) to El Capitan, I was asked of my Apple ID before even downloading. I suspect that the identifier Apple is baked into the OS now, so I wonder: will I be able to use another Apple ID in iTunes store?

    I have two iTunes store accounts, one to the United States and the United Kingdom (I have lived in both countries and are in need of some regional applications of these two stores).

    Thank you!

    Apps are for always related to the Apple ID used to obtain them.

    You have the same Apple ID for updating applications.

    You sign an ID and then connect back with the good Apple ID
