You will either have to downgrade to the version of macOS you were running before Catalina, upgrade Office to Office 2019 or buy an Office 365 subscription, or find an alternative.


Office 2011 is obsolete. It is no longer supported by Microsoft and is not compatible with Catalina at all.

The oldest version of Office that will run on Catalina is Office 2016.
