I have installed Office for Mac 2011 on my MacBook Air. Pivot Tables are not opening in Excel. Any ideas as to how I can get it to work?

Unless your question regards problem with OS X showing an incompatibility with Office (or vice versa) it sounds very specific to MS Excel functionality and likely to get more traction on an MS Office Support forum.

I have received a data file in Excel with Pivot. This file is not opening on my MacBook on which MS Office 2011 for Mac is installed. However on a windows machine the file is opening. All that I wanted to know is - how can I open this file on my Mac?
