Before you begin, make sure your PC or Mac meets the system requirements.
If you are reinstalling Microsoft 365, you have already redeemed a product key, or you are installing Microsoft 365 at work or school and know you have a license, then go to the section sign in to download and install Office.
However, if this is the first time you’re installing Microsoft 365, you may have some pre-installation steps to do first. Expand the Learn more section below for more info.
If this is the first time you’re installing Microsoft 365, you may have to complete a set of pre-installation steps first or you may need to follow different steps than what’s contained below. What you do depends if your copy of Microsoft 365 is an Office for home or an Office for business product and whether or not you have a product key you have to redeem, an existing account associated with Microsoft 365, or a pre-assigned license.
Microsoft 365 for home
If you have an Office for home product and it came with a product key*, before installing for the first time (or sharing it if you have Microsoft 365 Family), you need to redeem your product key first.
Go to office.com/setup and sign in with an existing or new Microsoft account and then enter your product key to redeem it*. Redeeming your key is what adds your Microsoft account to Microsoft 365 and you only have to do this once. If you’re renewing a Microsoft 365 subscription with a new product key, use the same Microsoft account you previously associated with your expired version subscription.
Tip: Once this is done, anytime you need to install or reinstall Microsoft 365 you can go straight to the next section, Sign in to download Office and select the tab for help to install on a PC or Mac. Be sure to sign in with the same Microsoft account you used to redeem your product key at office.com/setup.
Microsoft 365 for business
If your Office for business subscription plan includes the desktop version of the Microsoft 365 apps you won’t see an option to install it unless someone in your organization assigned a license to you.
Learn how to check this in What Microsoft 365 business product or license do I have? or if you’re a Microsoft 365 admin responsible for assigning licenses to people in your organization, see Assign licenses to users.
Once you verify you have a license, anytime you need to install or reinstall Microsoft 365 you can go straight to the section below, Sign in to download Office and select the tab for steps to install on a PC or Mac. You’ll sign in with your work or school account for these versions of Microsoft 365.
*If you don’t have a product key or an account
Some versions of Microsoft 365 such as Office Professional Plus 2021, Office Standard 2021, or a stand-alone app such as Word 2021 or Project 2021 don’t have an associated Microsoft account, or work or school account.
The steps to install these versions can be different depending if you got Microsoft 365 through one of the following ways:
Volume license versions:
IT departments might use a different method when installing Microsoft 365 for people in their organization. Talk to your IT department for install help.

Sign in or installation FAQ
The following are a few of the more common questions or issues when trying to install Microsoft 365.
Account questions:
Before you can install Microsoft 365 or Office 2021 you need to associate it with a Microsoft account, or work or school account.
If you have an Office for home product and bought Microsoft 365 at a retail store or online store, but don’t have a Microsoft account, it’s possible you haven’t redeemed your product key yet (if you got one), or you missed the step for linking your recent purchase with an account. Do the following to link an account with Microsoft 365.
For an Office for home product, go to office.com/setup and create a new Microsoft account or sign in with an existing one, then follow the remaining steps on that page such as entering your product key (if you have one). Your account is successfully associated with Microsoft 365 when you see the page, My Office Account followed by your Microsoft account email address, and a button to install Microsoft 365. Select the PC or Mac tabs above to help you with the rest of the install process.
If the Microsoft account or work or school account isn’t working, see I forgot the username or password for the account I use with Office.
After signing in with your work or school account you don’t see an option to install the desktop applications on the Microsoft 365 home page, go directly to the Microsoft 365 Software page instead. Select the language and bit-version you want (PC users can choose between 32-bit and 64-bit), and then click Install. See Step 2 and 3 on the PC or Mac tabs above to help you with the rest of the install process.
Notes:
-
If your organization uses Microsoft 365 operated by 21Vianet in China, sign in to the Microsoft 365 Software page at https://portal.partner.microsoftonline.cn/OLS/MySoftware.aspx.
-
If your organization uses Microsoft 365 Germany, sign in to the Microsoft 365 Software page at https://portal.office.de/OLS/MySoftware.aspx.
If you still don’t see an option to install Microsoft 365 on the Microsoft 365 Software page, it’s possible your admin hasn’t assigned a license to you. Find out if you have a license to install Office.
If you’re a student or teacher and your institution didn’t give you a license, find out if you’re eligible to Get Microsoft 365 for free.
If you’re trying to sign in with your work or school account to www.office.com and your sign in is blocked, it likely means your Microsoft 365 administrator set up a security policy that’s preventing you from signing in to that location.
To install Microsoft 365, try signing in directly to the Microsoft 365 Software page instead. Select the language and bit-version you want (PC users can choose between 32-bit and 64-bit), and then click Install. See Steps 2 and 3 on the PC or Mac tabs above to help you with the rest of the install process.

Install questions or errors during install
For Microsoft 365 subscriptions only: You can install Microsoft 365 on all your devices and be signed in to five at the same time. To learn more, see How sign in works in Microsoft 365.
If you have Microsoft 365 Family, you can also share your Microsoft 365 Family subscription with up to five family members or other people. Each person can install Microsoft 365 on all their devices and be signed in to five at the same time.
For a one-time purchase of Microsoft 365 such as Office Home & Student, Office Home & Business, or Office Professional: You can install these non-subscription versions of Microsoft 365 on only one computer. However, you may transfer Microsoft 365 to another computer that belongs to you if you experience a hardware failure, or you buy a new computer. For more information, see the Microsoft License Terms.
If you bought a stand-alone version of an Microsoft 365 app, for example Visio or Word, in most cases you install this app in the same way you install the Microsoft 365 suite, by signing in to www.office.com with your Microsoft account, or work or school account and selecting Install for your stand-alone product.
If you have a subscription to Project Online Professional, Project Online Premium, or Visio Pro for Microsoft 365, see Install Project, or Install Visio for the steps to install the apps that are part of those subscriptions.
If Microsoft 365 seems to be taking a very long time to install, this may be caused by problems with your internet connection, firewall, or anti-virus software. For possible solutions, see Office is taking long to install.
Microsoft 365 can also take long to install because of a slow internet connection (such as a dial-up connection). If you don’t have a good connection, install Microsoft 365 using the Use the Office offline installer.
Microsoft 365
won’t install: Your computer must be running a supported operating system to install Microsoft 365. You can find a list of which systems are supported on the system requirements page. For example, your install won’t be successful if you’re trying to install Microsoft 365 on a computer running Windows Vista or Windows XP operating system. If your computer can’t install the full desktop version of Microsoft 365, try the free Office Online apps using your desktop browser.
I received an error message: If you got an error message while trying to install Microsoft 365 and it has a Learn More link, select it to get information for how to troubleshoot that particular error. If there wasn’t a link, see Troubleshoot installing Office.
I received an unsupported operating system message: If you got an unsupported operating system error message you may be trying to install Microsoft 365 on an unsupported device such as installing the Mac version of Microsoft 365 on a PC or vice versa, or trying to install Microsoft 365 on a Chromebook or other mobile device. See Unsupported operating system error when installing Office or Set up Office apps and email on a mobile device.
Help with specific applications, and help for Microsoft 365 admins:
If Microsoft 365 is installed, but you need help with Microsoft 365 basics, or learn how to do a specific task such as print a document, set up an account in Outlook, or use VLOOKUP in Excel, go to the top of this page and select Apps or Learn Office.

Microsoft Office — самый востребованный офисный пакет в мире, и он работает на компьютерах Mac так же хорошо, как и на системах Windows. Однако многие пользователи Mac, кажется, задаются вопросом: «Должен ли я платить деньги за Microsoft Office для Mac или использовать одну из его многочисленных бесплатных альтернатив?» Мы постараемся дать вам необходимое решение этого вопроса в этой статье и объясним всю информацию, необходимую для загрузки, установки и начала использования Microsoft Office для Mac, если вы решите, что он вам подходит. Microsoft Office 2016 — это последняя версия от Microsoft для пользователей Mac, в которой сохранен плоский дизайн и пользовательский интерфейс с вкладками, представленные в Microsoft Office 2013. Включены Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, OneNote, OneDrive и Skype.
Microsoft Office для Mac: обзор
В 1990 году Microsoft Office впервые был представлен для Windows 95. Первая версия для Mac, Microsoft Office 98 Macintosh Edition, вышла, как вы уже догадались, в 1998 году.
1# Войдите и загрузите Office
- Если вы еще не вошли в систему, перейдите на portal.office.com и нажмите Войти.
- Войдите в систему, используя учетную запись, которую вы использовали для установки этой версии Office. При входе в систему компании должны выбрать «рабочий аккаунт».
- Если вы используете учебную или рабочую учетную запись, перейдите на домашнюю страницу Office и выберите «Установить приложения Office» > «Office 2016». (Примечание. Хотя в ссылке может упоминаться Office 2016, Office установит самую последнюю версию программ Office, как будет определено вашим администратором Office 365.)
Установить офис
- Откройте Finder, перейдите в раздел «Загрузки» и дважды щелкните файл Microsoft Office installer.pkg после завершения загрузки (имя может незначительно отличаться).
- Совет: Если установщик Microsoft Office. pkg не может быть открыт, так как он принадлежит неизвестному разработчику; подождите 10 секунд и перетащите загруженный файл на рабочий стол. Чтобы запустить установку, удерживайте нажатой клавишу Control и щелкните файл.
3 # Чтобы начать процедуру установки, выберите Продолжить на первом экране установки.
- После прочтения лицензионного соглашения на программное обеспечение нажмите «Продолжить».
- Щелкните диалоговое окно «Согласен», что означает, что вы согласны с условиями лицензионного соглашения на программное обеспечение, выберите «Согласен».
- Выберите способ установки Office и нажмите «Далее».
- После проверки требований к дисковому пространству или изменения места установки нажмите «Установить».
- Примечание. Если вы хотите установить отдельные приложения Office, а не весь набор, выберите «Настроить» и снимите флажки с продуктов, которые вы не хотите устанавливать.
- При появлении запроса введите пароль для входа в систему Mac и нажмите «Установить программное обеспечение». (Это те же учетные данные, которые вы используете для доступа к вашему Mac.)
- Начнется установка программного обеспечения. По завершении установки нажмите Закрыть. Если вы столкнулись с многочисленными проблемами при установке или активации Office для Mac, см. раздел Что делать, если не удается установить или активировать Office для Mac.
Начните процедуру активации, запустив приложение Office для Mac.
- Чтобы просмотреть все свои приложения, щелкните значок Launchpad в Dock.
- На панели запуска выберите значок Microsoft Word.
- Когда вы открываете Word, автоматически появляется окно «Что нового». Чтобы начать активацию, нажмите «Начать». См. Активация Office для Mac, если вам нужна помощь в активации Office. Если вы по-прежнему сталкиваетесь с проблемами при установке или активации Office для Mac, см. раздел Что делать, если не удается установить или активировать Office для Mac.
Вот как вы можете установить MS Office на свой Mac. Если вышеуказанная процедура не сработала, и вы все еще боретесь за MS Office, вы также можете купить MS Family в своем App Store для пожизненной версии.
To download Microsoft Office for Mac, go to www.office.com and sign in with the account associated with your version of Office. Go to the Office home page and select Install Office → Install.

Ratings and Reviews
Mac
I’m using Word for Mac. I finally bit the bullet and subscribed, because that’s the only way to get it now. It’s like an old friend. I’m fluent after YEARS of use. HOWEVER, Microsoft tries to WEDGE its cloud service into my work-flow and it’s confusing and annoying. When I want to choose «Autosave» to protect myself from losing in-process documents, it puts pop-ups telling me I need «Microsoft 360» or whatever, and there are other related foils that confuse me and make me think I can’t have a fully functioning Word version, like before, unless I have a Microsoft (MS) account and/or do what Microsoft wants with respect to its cloud service. I would appreciate if MS would lay-off and just provide the software, like before. BEFORE, I could buy it once and get all subsequent updates. Now, in the interest of recurring revenue, I have to «subscribe.» «Subscribing» to MS Word was a hurdle I had to get over. I tried everything, but the others aren’t nearly as familiar and comfortable to me…
Since the new office preimered
Many months ago you gave users a chance to try a new version of Outlook 365. I noted a few issues and oen did not get fixed. There is a clitch when I use this on Mac. When I being a sentence, the capital letter at the start of the sentence gets jumped ahead of the curser, with auot correct changing the secon letter of the sentence from lower case to capitol and them fixing the spelling of the first word.
This means, every time I begin a paragrpah or senetnce, I have to delete the first letter, which is not at the end of a sentence and go back to the begining of teh sentence and fix the first word.
Please fix this crummy coding.
Also, I am using Zoom, as are many people these days. It asked me if I want to merge with Outlook 365. I clicked yes. It generated an outlook app on my tool bar. Ithis is not a Zoom app, it is your outlook app. Now I get a bell ring and pop-up on my screen every time I have something on my calendar. I have something on my sclendar every 15 to 30 minutes. This is driving me nuts. There is a not setting to get ride of it, control the bell ring or stop the pop-up.
Please go through your systems and fix things before taing them live. You guys =used to be the best at this stuff, now you have wacky flaws without solutions.
Wonderful, especially for dictation, but problems with auto-punction
I’m a writer and am very much impressed with how far Word for Mac has come. I usually use other software to write my books (Scrivener, Drafts) but am now making the switch to writing in Word, specifically because I can access my WIP on any of my devices—iphone, ipad, macbook, imac—without paying for multiple licenses or going through mulitple headaches. The experience from one device to the next has the continuity I’ve been missing from every other solution I’ve tried. Syncing isn’t an issue at all—thank God it’s not dependent on iCloud or Dropbox. And the bonus of all bonuses is the dictation feature, which is superb across all devices. My only complaint is that I cannot turn of auto-punctuation in the dictation settings. Tick the box to turn it off and it magically turns back on. Makes for lots of extra editing. Still, it’s great and luckily the issue is only on the desktop app and not on the mobile versions. (A silver lining is that this auto-punctuation bug has gotten me dictating/writing my novels on my phone now, which has made me even more productive.)
5 stars if the auto-punctuation bug is fixed.
