Install Office 2007

Hi,

I did just buy my macbook. My problem is that I cannot install office 2007 from a CD. When I put in the CD nothing happens! What shall I do? Do I need a special installprogram for CD:s or is it supposed to work?

Thanks

MAC OS X Intel 10.6.3, Mac OS X (10.6.3)

I believe that Office 2007 is not compatible with OS 10.6 & an Intel processor. You'll need a newer version of Office.

You posted your question in the Classic Environment (OS 9) forum for OS X. Your OS 10.6 doesn't support Classic. Suggest you repost your question in the Using OS 10.6 forum at http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1339

 Cheers, Tom 😉

I wouldn't repost the question. Let's ask a moderator to move it.

Office 2007 is a Windows version of Office. You can install Windows on that Mac, or you can get Office 2008 for the Mac, or Office 2004 for the Mac, or http://www.neooffice.org/ if the only reason is to access Word, Powerpoint and Excel. If you need access to Entourage for Mac, that's in Office 2008 or Office 2004. If you need access to Microsoft Access, you will need a Windows operating system installed on your Mac.
