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.

  • 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 drivers for Mac under vmware?

    Hello the VMWare community! I would like to ask, if there is a way I can use my mac on Vmware drivers? My CPU is good in Vmware, but I would use my AMD Radeon rather than Vmware SVGA graphics. Is anyway to do this? I heard that you can use your Mac OS x disk to install the drivers in Vmware.

    You can not install the drivers for the host GPU in the guest operating system as the guest operating system does not directly see it.  So if the operating system does not see the device then install drivers for a device in the operating system can't see would be a waste of time and in some cases the drivers wouldn't install when even if it can detect the device!  So, we're stuck with the supplied VMware graphics adapter.  Now other things like the iSight camera that a different story and you can use the iSight Boot Camp driver in a Virtual Machine.

    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:

    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.

    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.

  • How to install office 365 on my apple pro

    Do I NEED TO MAKE my software to install office 365?

    Office 365 is a subscription service that includes five copies of Office for Mac that you can install on your Mac. Those who stop working when your subscription expires.

    For more information, see:

  • 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.
