KeyChain Login - Allow not possible - Office 2016 - 10.11.1

Have this issue too: cannot open the Office apps. They keep asking to access Keychain. "Allow" and "Always allow" buttons do not work. Only "deny", after clicking several times.

Seems that in the Keychain login at installing the Suite, only 1 Office application (eg Word) is allowed. Tried adding the other applications in the Keychain, but then Keychain asks me for a password, that I do not have.

Als tried removing the whole suite, as per Microsoft's suggestions (including Library entries), and reinstalling. Also no use.

APPLE & MICROSOFT - PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE!!!!

After fiddling with this issue for quite some time I found a solution that worked for me:

-Restart the Mac in Safe mode (keep Shift button pressed after the apple sound comes on)

-Then try and open each Office 2016 application

-When that annoying Dialog comes on, Click "Always allow" (somehow in Safe mode this button works!!)

-Restart the Mac normally and voila, Office works.

Hope this works for others too!

Safe-mode will work, but if you know of any applications that are running to intercept user-input, try quitting those applications to allow the requests. You may need to ForceQuit and restart the office app after stopping the other apps.

Example Apps:

MagicPrefs

Hazel

AppleRemote Desktop (Remote mode)

Bomgar (Remote Support Mode)

TeamViewer (Remote Control Mode)

This helped me. Installing and activating office was successfull after QUITTING TeamViewer and Apple Remote Desktop.

Thank you for that tip!

Quitting MagicPrefs worked for me. Thanks!
