Download and Install office for Mac and get started on your favourite Mac programs in minutes. Microsoft will continue to work closely with Apple to address problems that may occur with Office for Mac 2008 and 2011 and Lion OS. Note: Sync services are not available with OSX versions 10.8 (Mountain Lion) or higher.

I have an iMac 5K late 2014 and my wife has a MacBook Pro late 2011. Both have MS Office 2011 installed and I upgraded both computers to MacOS Sierra.

On my iMac MS Office 2011 fired up with no problems. On the MacBook Pro Office experienced several glitches.

In fact every application on the MacBook Pro was sluggish; some were almost non responsive. After sitting overnight, however, everything returned to normal. Apparently when you upgrade to Sierra, the new version of Photos spends a lot of time and processing power indexing the photos. Once that is complete the notebook returned to normal and Office is working with no problems. Apparently the difference between computers stems from the fast processor and Fusion Drive on the iMac and a much slower process and HDD on the MacBook Pro.

Microsoft support said that support for MS Office 2011 has not ended. So it is supported on macOS Sierra. Download new software for mac os x. I have upgraded to Sierra and Office continues to work but there are now some weird quirks that are bothersome.

To open a file for Word I have to double click in the Office finder windows (didn't have to previously) (NOTE: in Apples Finder and all other apps I only have to click once) and then despite my file selection at the bottom of the finder window being set to show 'all files' the open button is greyed out. This can only be made active by clicking on the 'all files' and selecting any option even 'all files' again to which the open button becomes accessible and you can open the desired file. MS released an update last week which did not address my issues. Apple Footer • This site contains user submitted content, comments and opinions and is for informational purposes only.
