I haven't found any forums that are discussing this, and Microsoft technical support isn't much help. Again, this is a short list of the problems. It takes 5 seconds of "spinning beach ball" to go from one page to another. If landscape paper orientation is selected in page setup, when I select print, the dialog box shows "portrait" and it reformats the document into portrait.I have to be sure to change it there or it will print out incorrectly and mess up the document. I can't move page breaks in page-break view. Page layout does not work at all.when you click in a cell, the selection border shows on the other side of the page and encloses two or three cells. That's just a few of the problems.Īnd Excel is almost unusable. I lost fonts in Word (it won't show ITC fonts even tho they work in other applications) and it's impossible to update the normal.dotm file, so things like my keyboard shortcuts created in "Tools - Customize Keyboard" aren't saved for other documents. Office 2021 for Mac is a one-time purchase (not a subscription) for installation on one Mac only.I just bought a new Mac mini with High Sierra and installed Office for Mac has been a nightmare and I wouldn't advise anyone to do it. With Microsoft 365, the apps are available on your computer and via browser one subscription enables you to use them on both your Mac and PC. Upgrading to Microsoft 365, the subscription version of Office that comes with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other apps, depending on the plan you choose. What are my options?Īlthough you'll still be able to use Office for Mac 2011, you might want to upgrade to a newer version of Office so you can stay up to date with all the latest features, patches, and security updates. This lifecycle typically lasts for 5 years from the date of the product’s initial release. Office for Mac 2011, like most Microsoft products, has a support lifecycle during which we provide new features, bug fixes, security fixes, and so on. In fact, most online help content will be retired. No further updates to support content will be provided. You'll no longer receive phone or chat technical support. Security updates are what help protect your Mac from harmful viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.


You'll no longer receive security updates. You'll no longer receive Office for Mac 2011 software updates from Microsoft Update. But here's what the end of support means for you: Rest assured that all your Office 2011 apps will continue to function-they won't disappear from your Mac, nor will you lose any data. Support for Office for Mac 2011 ended on October 10, 2017.
