Any chance that you have used the "demo"?

If your programs Microsoft Office came pe-installed when you purchased the computer, it is a "trial" version
Trial version is good for 60 days or x number of use, after that it use more.

If this is the case, you will need to purchase a full version if you want to continue using Microsoft Office programs.
Here is the link to dwnload Microsoft Office 2010 which shows you all available versions and their prices.

There is an alternative. You can install OpenOffice which is free. There are programs that work more or less like Microsoft counterparts, and they are compatible.

  • The 2007 Microsoft Office programs do not appear in the list of default programs

    Hey there - I'll have a few courses of weird stuff.

    I have both OpenOffice.org and Microsoft Office 2007 is installed on my Windows 7 computer and I would like to use Microsoft Office as the default for all files, it can open, but he does not appear in the list of default programs.

    Indeed, with the exception of Microsoft Office Outlook, none of my Microsoft Office 2007 applications appear in the list of default programs!

    OpenOffice.org appears, and when I click on it in the list and click Choose defaults for this program of the defaults are already defined for the equivalent Microsoft Office application.  But there are some associations (such as text files) that are not correctly linked and possibly others that I don't know.  I would like to click Microsoft Word, and then click set this program as default so that it automatically opens all the files it can.

    I appreciate the help that you might be able to offer.

    If you click on all programs above the Orb in the list you will find Microsoft Office 2007, click the folder and it opens to reveal Word, excel etc. You can right-click on the word etc. and choose PIN to the start menu or the taskbar somewhere else.

  • Microsoft Office 365 does not work after update of El Capitan 10.11.4 March 27

    I've upgraded to El Capitan 10.11.4 March 27 and my Microsoft Office 365, specifically the word & excel stopped working properly. Files can be opened, but when you save the new content, and then close the document, it does not record properly (and no backup or temporary file cannot be found). Once opened again, they eventually return to the saved before the update version. Thus losing the latest added to the document after the update.

    If anyone has experienced this or can help, I'd appreciate it. This is my first mac and I thought it would be much easier to use than a PC, but I'm not sure I can take this abuse much more time

    You can also report the issue in the Microsoft support forum. Note that Office 365 indicates only that you purchased Office in the subscription, but it does not indicate what version of Office you are using. The following link will allow you to choose the version during the validation of the issue: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac

  • Adobe Acrobat Reader 8 and Microsoft Office word 2007 does not work

    They gave me a laptop Sony Vaio FRO my birthday about a month ago. I work from home, I work online and I use everyday in my computer. The two programs I use the most are gives me a hard time and not let me use a reason any. The software came on the laptop so I called Sony and they told me that it should work fine, and if I have problems to contact microsoft. Well, my point is its does not work and it is causing me loose not being able to work money. Im very frustrated and im desperately need help. Please if anyone can tell me what to do to fix this problem I would be very happy. IM at my wits end here. Acrobat 8 reader telling me I need a serial number to continue using the program and will close and I lose all my work. Also, Microsoft Office Word 2007 again I need a product key number. I use these programs daily to work, I can't cope with this. They keep making me lose all hours of work ive done. Help, please!

    Adobe Acrobat Reader is free, it shouldn't charge for continuous use.  Packages of creator Adobe (Adobe Acrobat Standard, Pro, Pro Extended) cost money.  Microsoft Office is often loaded on a computer as a trial package.  You need to follow up with Sony on these items to make sure if they sent packets of the trial or fully paid packages, and if they are supposed to be freed from the packages that your only relief must come from Sony - we cannot help you here.

  • Access to Microsoft Office Word 2007

    I have a HP Mini 311-1000 Netbook.  I bought it from Verizon with built in air card modem.  When I try to use Microsoft Office Word 2007 he asks me to put in my 25 digit product number.  I have the number as written on the label of microsoft on the back of my computer.  When I type the product numbers all he tells me is not correct.  Help, please. I tried different ways without result.

    Thanks, this looks like the case.  I had something like 20 chances to use it before putting in the number.  I thought it came with the computer.  I'll just use works.  I don't need anything fancy.  I have another laptop that has Office on this subject.

  • Where can I find a "product key" for Microsoft Office Word 2007.

    When I try to open Microsoft Office Word 2007, which is installed on my computer, I get this pop up asking for my product key. I have no knowledge of a product key and I don't know where it can be located. Anyone has an idea about this 'product key '.

    Thank you

    Hello, the product key is normally printed in the retail packaging or is sent in the confirmation email in case you made a digital purchase. However there is a support forum for the mozilla firefox browser. If you continue to have problems to get the desktop software to work, please contact support Microsoft instead since it is their product.

  • Can use GoDaddy certificate to sign into Microsoft Office Word 2010, but not in Adobe Acrobat XI 10.0.09

    When I export our GoDaddy Exchange certificate in a *.pfx file I can import the pfx file to the Windows personal certificate store and use it in Microsoft Office Word 2010 to create a valid, a Digital Signature that can be verified by people outside of our Organization. I haven Version Adobe Acrobat Pro XI 11.0.09 I can't make this work. The creation of an ID of a file and using the same pfx file like I did in Office 2010 seems to work:

    AdobeSupportAdd-ID.PNG

    but when I actually sign a document, I can not select this ID in the menu drop-down:

    AdobeSupportCertificateStore.PNG

    Here's an example of how this certificate helps create the signature in Word 2010.


    AdobeSupportWordSignature.PNG


    The certificate used has not "signing documents' classified 'area of use '. What is preventing the use of this certificate in Adobe Acrobat Pro?

    A certificate has two [optional] extensions that direct how this certificate: use of the key and Extended Key use. Prior to version 11.0.9 Acrobat didn't treat these extensions correctly according to RFC 5280. Since version 11.0.9 Acrobat strictly follows the RFC 5280 restrictions on the use of certificates. MS Word does not have these restrictions.

    Go to Edit-> preferences-> Signatures-> identities & Vertificates trust-> more... Select Digital IDs in the right pane, and then in the left pane of your certificate. Then click on 'Détails' and air (you may need to scroll), if it has an extension of the "key of prolonged use. If it click it and look at its value at the bottom of the left pane. If emailProtection or the value CodeSigning certificate is suitable for the signature in Acrobat. If she has none of these values, but has another value, like clientAuthentication, then it is not appropriate for the signature in Acrobat. The problem in the past was that Acrobat allowed users to sign with certificates that have been published for purposes other than the signature of the document. Version 11.0.9 tight this restriction.
