How to update Microsoft Office on iMac Running macOS Ventura 13.6.4

iMac running MacOS Ventura 13.6.4 and purchased Microsoft Office suite. Receiving Microsoft message that the Office suite needs to be upgraded, as I am no longer receiving security updates. How do I go about upgrading the products, as I don't see anything in the Apple store?

As @VikingOSX already replied, Office 2019 is no longer supported.


If you want to keep your system up to date on an ongoing basis, Office 365 subscription is the way to go. At present the cost is $69.99/year for 1 person/5 devices; or $99.99/year for family up to 6 people/5devices.


MS Office 2021 is currently $249.99. The Home & Student version is $149.99 but it does not include Outlook. And in both cases, expect support to end by the fall of 2025.

Purchased Microsoft office (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook, etc.) for one device and am running Word v 16.73.3, retail license 2019.


No longer receiving security updates, and receiving an alert to update product.


How do I go about updating the software? Do I complete remove Microsoft office and purchase a new complete Microsoft office suite?
