Office 2010 Mac

Posted on  by 



Aug 15, 2011 Long story short, Office for Mac 2010 was already installed when I bought the laptop, but it was uninstalled by one of my children. I have looked everywhere for the resources to download the suite, or even a trial where I can input my key so that I can unlock the full software.

Office 2010 reached its end of support on October 13, 2020. If you haven't already begun to upgrade your Office 2010 environment, we recommend you start now.

This article provides recommendations, information, and links to help administrators and IT Pros in large enterprises plan their upgrades to Microsoft 365 Apps.

Note

  • If you're a home user who wants to upgrade from Office 2010 to the latest version of Office, see How do I upgrade Office?
  • If you're an admin at a small business or organization who wants to help your users upgrade to the latest version of Office, see Upgrade your Microsoft 365 for business users to the latest Office client.

We also recommend business and enterprise customers use the deployment benefits provided by Microsoft and Microsoft Certified Partners, including Microsoft FastTrack for cloud migrations and Software Assurance Planning Services for on-premises upgrades.

Office

What does end of support mean?

Office 2010, like almost all Microsoft products, has a support lifecycle during which we provide bug fixes and security fixes. This lifecycle lasts for a certain number of years from the date of the product's initial release. For Office 2010, the support lifecycle is 10 years. The end of this lifecycle is known as the product's end of support. Office 2010 reached its end of support on October 13, 2020, and Microsoft no longer provides the following services:

  • Technical support for issues

  • Bug fixes for issues that are discovered

  • Security fixes for vulnerabilities that are discovered

Because of these changes, we strongly recommend that you upgrade as soon as possible.

What are my options?

Because Office 2010 has reached its end of support, you should explore your options and prepare an upgrade plan to either of these latest versions of Office:

  • Microsoft 365 Apps, the subscription version of Office that comes with many Office 365 (and Microsoft 365) enterprise and business plans.

  • Office 2019, which is sold as a one-time purchase and available for one computer per license.

A key difference between Microsoft 365 Apps and Office 2019 is that Microsoft 365 Apps is updated on a regular basis, as often as monthly, with new features. Office 2019 only has the same features that it had when it was released in October 2018.

This article provides guidance on upgrading to Microsoft 365 Apps.

What is Office 365? What is Microsoft 365 Apps?

Office 365 (and Microsoft 365) provides subscription plans that include access to Office applications and other cloud services, including Skype for Business, Exchange Online, and OneDrive for Business. Microsoft 365 Apps is the version of Office that comes with many Office 365 (and Microsoft 365) enterprise and business plans. Microsoft 365 Apps includes the full versions of Office apps installed on your client computers. For example, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, and OneNote.

Unlike Office 2010, Microsoft 365 Apps uses a user-based licensing model that allows people to install Office on up to 5 PCs or Macs and on their mobile devices. There are also differences in how you deploy, license, and activate Microsoft 365 Apps compared to Office 2010. For more information about Microsoft 365 Apps, see the following information:

Review what's changed since Office 2010

To learn about some of the changes since Office 2010, review the following articles: Changes in Office 2013 and Changes in Office 2016 for Windows.

For information about the new features available in Microsoft 365 Apps, see What's new in Microsoft 365. For Office 2019, see What's New in Office 2019.

Review the system requirements for Microsoft 365 Apps

Before upgrading to Microsoft 365 Apps, verify that your client computers meet or exceed the minimum system requirements.

In addition, you should review the system requirements for your Office server workloads. For more information, see Exchange Server Supportability Matrix and System Requirements for Office server products.

Plan for Office 365

Because Microsoft 365 Apps comes with many enterprise Office 365 (and Microsoft 365) plans, you should review your current Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) capabilities as part of planning an upgrade to Microsoft 365 Apps. Prior to deploying Microsoft 365 Apps, for example, you should ensure that all your users have Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) accounts and licenses. For more information, see Deploy Microsoft 365 Enterprise for your organization.

Assess application compatibility

Before deploying Microsoft 365 Apps, you may want to test your business-critical VBA macros, third-party add-ins, and complex documents and spreadsheets to assess their compatibility with Microsoft 365 Apps. For more information, see Assess application compatibility.

To help with assessing application compatibility with Microsoft 365 Apps, you can use the Readiness Toolkit for Office add-ins and VBA. The Readiness Toolkit includes the Readiness Report Creator, which creates an Excel report with VBA macro compatibility and add-in readiness information to help your enterprise assess its readiness to move to Microsoft 365 Apps.

You can download the Readiness Toolkit for free from the Microsoft Download Center. For more information, see Use the Readiness Toolkit to assess application compatibility for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Other resources are also available. For example, if you use Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (current branch), you can use the Microsoft 365 Apps readiness dashboard. Or, you can get assistance from Microsoft through the App Assure program.

Assess your infrastructure and environment

To decide how to upgrade to Microsoft 365 Apps, you should evaluate your infrastructure and environment, including the following areas:

  • Number and distribution of your clients, including required languages.

  • IT infrastructure, including operating systems, mobile device support, user permissions and management, and software distribution methods.

  • Network infrastructure, including connections to the internet and internal software distribution points.

  • Cloud infrastructure, including existing Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) capabilities, user licensing, and identity.

Your assessment of these components will influence how you want to upgrade. For more information, see Assess your environment and requirements for deploying Microsoft 365 Apps.

Review new Group Policy settings

As with any new version of Office, there are new Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) for Group Policy settings. All Group Policy settings for Microsoft 365 Apps are now located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftOffice16.0 and HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftOffice16.0.

You can download the Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) for Group Policy settings for Microsoft 365 Apps from the Microsoft Download Center for free. The download includes an Excel file that lists all the Group Policy settings for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Choose how you want to deploy Microsoft 365 Apps

You can deploy Microsoft 365 Apps from the cloud, from a local source on your network, or with Configuration Manager (or another software distribution solution). Which option you choose depends on your environment and business requirements. Deploying from the cloud, for example, minimizes your administrative overhead, but could require more network bandwidth. Deploying with Configuration Manager or from a local source, on the other hand, offers more granular control over the deployment of Microsoft 365 Apps, including which applications and languages are installed on which client computers.

For more information, see Plan your enterprise deployment of Microsoft 365 Apps.

Choose how often to update Office

With Microsoft 365 Apps, you can control how frequently your users receive feature updates to their Office applications. For more information, see Overview of update channels for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Plan for additional languages

You can install language accessory packs after you've deployed Microsoft 365 Apps in one of its base languages. There are two ways to install language accessory packs:

  • Have your users download and install the language accessory packs that they need from the Office 365 portal.

  • Use the Office Deployment Tool to deploy the appropriate language accessory packs to your users.

Special considerations

Office 2010 MacOffice

The Office Customization Tool is not used as part of the Microsoft 365 Apps installation. Instead, you can customize the installation for your users with the Office Deployment Tool. For more information, see Overview of the Office Deployment Tool.

Removal of InfoPath from Microsoft 365 Apps. InfoPath 2013 remains the current version and therefore isn't included in Microsoft 365 Apps. When you upgrade an existing installation of Office 2010 to Microsoft 365 Apps, InfoPath is removed from the computer. If your users still need to use InfoPath, the 2013 version of InfoPath is available for installation on the Software page in the Office 365 portal.

Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 is a version of the Microsoft Officeproductivity suite for macOS. It is the successor to Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac and is comparable to Office 2010 for Windows. Office 2011 was followed by Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac released on September 22, 2015, requiring a Mac with an x64 Intel processor and OS X Yosemite or later. Office for Mac 2011 is no longer supported as of October 10, 2017.[2]

New features[edit]

Microsoft Office 2011 includes more robust enterprise support and greater feature parity with the Windows edition. Its interface is now more similar to Office 2007 and 2010 for Windows, with the addition of the ribbon. Support for Visual Basic for Applications macros has returned after having been dropped in Office 2008.[3][4] Purchasing the Home Premium version of Office for Mac will not allow telephone support automatically to query any problems with the VBA interface. There are however, apparently, according to Microsoft Helpdesk, some third party applications that can address problems with the VBA interface with Office for Mac.[citation needed] In addition, Office 2011 supports online collaboration tools such as OneDrive and Office Web Apps, allowing Mac and Windows users to simultaneously edit documents over the web. It also includes limited support for Apple's high-density Retina Displays, allowing the display of sharp text and images, although most icons within applications themselves are not optimized for this.

A new version of Microsoft Outlook, written using Mac OS X's Cocoa API, returns to the Mac for the first time since 2001 and has full support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2007.[5] It replaces Entourage, which was included in Office 2001, X, 2004 and 2008 for Mac.[6]

Limitations[edit]

Office for Mac 2011 has a number of limitations compared to Office 2010 for Windows. It does not support ActiveX controls,[7] or OpenDocument Format.[8][9] It also cannot handle attachments in Rich Text Format e-mail messages sent from Outlook for Windows, which are delivered as winmail.dat attachments.[citation needed] It also has several human language limitations, such as lack of support for right-to-left languages such as Arabic, Persian, and Hebrew [10] and automatic language detection. [11]

Microsoft does not support CalDAV and CardDAV in Outlook, so there is no way to sync directly Outlook through iCloud. Outlook also does not allow the user to disable Cached Exchange Mode, unlike the Windows version, and it is therefore not possible to connect to an Exchange Server without downloading a local cache of mail and calendar data. [12]

Office for Mac 2011 also has a shorter lifecycle than Office 2010. Support for Office for Mac 2011 was originally scheduled to end on January 12, 2016, but because Office for Mac 2016 did not come out until July 2015, Microsoft extended support until October 10, 2017. [13] As 32-bit software, it will not run on macOS Catalina or later versions of macOS. It is also not officially supported on macOS High Sierra or macOS Mojave.[14][15]

Editions[edit]

Two editions are available to the general public. Home & Student provides Word, Excel and PowerPoint, while Home & Business adds Outlook and increased support.[16]Microsoft Messenger 8 is included with both editions, and Microsoft Communicator for Mac 2011, which communicates with Microsoft Lync Server, is available only to volume licensing customers.[17] Office 2011 requires an Intel Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later.[18]

The Home & Student edition is available in a single license for one computer and a family pack for three computers. The Home & Business edition is available in a single license for one computer and a multi-pack for two computers. The Standard edition is only available through Volume Licensing.[19] The Academic edition was created for higher education students, staff and faculty, and includes one installation.[20] Office for Mac is also available as part of Microsoft's Office 365 subscription programme.

Development[edit]

Microsoft announced Office 2011 in 2009.[21] There were 6 beta versions released:

  • Beta 1
  • Beta 2 (Version 14.0.0, Build 100326)
  • Beta 3 (Build 100519)—announced on May 25, 2010[22]
  • Beta 4 (Build 100526)
  • Beta 5 (Build 100709)
  • Beta 6 (Build 100802)

Access to beta versions was by invitation only,[23] although leaked copies were circulated among Mac file sharing websites.[24]

The final version was released to manufacturing on September 10, 2010,[25] was available to volume license customers a day later,[26] and made available to the general public on October 26, 2010.[27] Service Pack 1 was released on April 12, 2011.[28]
