HIGH SIERRA COMPATIBILITY WITH MICROSOFT OFFICE

im having the same problem!! did anyone help you fix it? what did you do?

Wow, Larry, I'm surprised as I'm also trying to use Office 2011 for Mac.

I just upgraded to High Sierra and although Outlook and Excel APPEAR to be working, for the moment, PowerPoint and Word are certainly not working for me. I can't open old Word/PPT documents correctly or type a new doc. VERY annoying for me and I'm concerned about corruption for my Excel and Outlook files. 😠

Hi Larry, I used Office 2011 and switched to Office 365 on High Sierra. Everything works perfectly on High Sierra and the look and feel is quite an improvement. I would certainly suggest to switch! Macros work much better and the ribbon is much more what I was used to as I have to work with Office 2013 and now 365 on Windows pc’s at work. Compatibility is finally also much better between Office 2016/365 on the Mac and PC. No problems there anymore....

To my knowledge, the difference between Office 2016 and Office 365 is that you get future updates to all new versions as long as you have a subscription with Office 365 and also space in the cloud for working, sharing and colaborating online. I have a subscription for 5 computer licenses where I can install all Office 2016 applications and can highly suggest this; as my wife can tax deduct this subscription 😉

So far, I've had absolutely no problems running all the components of Office 2011 for Mac under High Sierra (primarily use of Word, but also some Excel, PPT). Sorry to hear about your issues.

Thanks for the info. At the moment,Office 2011 is still working fine for me but my needs are a lot simpler than yours.
