Office Home & Student for iMac 2019 will no longer update

The latest version is Microsoft Office Home & Student 2021. Microsoft does not do free upgrades between major versions (e.g. 2019 to 2021) of one-time purchases of Office.

If you subscribe to Microsoft 365 instead of doing one-time purchases, they do provide continuous upgrades as long as you continue to subscribe.

You can see both options and buy either at https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/buy/microsoft-365

Afternoon,

Thank you for your quick response. So, if I subscribe to the Microsoft 365 Personal it will continue functioning as is? Or, do I have to remove the old program first before subscribing? So are they no longer selling one-time purchased Microsoft 365?

Thank you.

I'm not sure what you need to do with your old version (I subscribed to Microsoft 365 without having previously had a one-time installation on this computer) or if it will upgrade directly to the current version. The following is all I found from Microsoft https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/end-of-support-for-office-2019-for-mac-f2cbba0a-0773-4b2c-b417-b20b5bb2c757

They still sell the one-time purchase but not that the name "Microsoft 365" indicates the subscription, not the one-time purchase. Click on https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/buy/microsoft-365 then scroll down and look for

Correct, after installing you can uninstall the old version if you want. Its up to you.

Cough. My Office 2021 for Mac Home and Business suite and Office 2021 Professional Plus for Windows 11 Pro cost me around $34 for each license at Stack Social.

Good point!
