Does Microsoft Office 2011 work under Yosemite?
I use Microsoft Word for college. I prefer to use Word instead of Pages.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

On my MacBook Air it doesn't work at all, my Yosemite desktop / dock crashed, and even a reinstall of Yosemite didn't help. I made a new account, and removed the old one, but I didn't reinstall Microsoft Office 2011
I upgraded the MBP to Yosemite this weekend. Office seems to work fine (however, can't attest to Outlook, since i do not use it).
MSWord and MSExcel work OK except I had a couple of nifty Macros in Word, and they just sit there now. Is there a fix to get old macros to work? If I make new macros, will THEY work?
After the updating to Yosemite, neither Word nor PP work, but Excel works perfectly. I tried to reinstall Microsoft Office, but it didn't solve the problem.
More than likely. Microsoft would be the authority on that, and per current system requirements, it should, but Yosemite is not specifically mentioned.
I use a MacBook Pro and since I upgraded to Yosemite, Excel 11 (14.4.5) crashes continuously for no apparent reason, i.e. I cannot replicate the problem, it appears to be arbitrarily.
It is hardware dependent. I run Yosemite on a MacBook Pro (late 2008) with the latest version of Office 365 and it is fine (I still loathe Outlook). However my more recent MacBook Air is less than happy with Office 365 (I guess because it has taste) and will work OK with Word and Excel, but not with Outlook.
Thanks. Word, which is the program that I use most, seems to work well to me.
I asked because I didn't want to mess up what: 1) I use regularly for my English assignments, and 2) costed money.

Well the only way to know that is to try creating one and find out.
I have the same problem with macros. The ones I created don't work. I tried to recreate them. No way. No message of error. Just not functioning.
Did anyone find a solution?
