    Can I use office2004 with MAC OS X Lion

    I have office 2004. I am planning to install Mac OS X Lion. Can anyone tell me which version of office is compatible with Mac OS X Lion? Will office 2005 work.

    PowerPC applications, which is what Office 2004 is not working in Mac OS X Lion. You will have to upgrade to Office 2007, 2011, iWork, or continue to make use of Snow Leopard.

    Lion is not well-matched with PPC programs and Office 2004 is a PPC program. You necessitate upgrading to 2011 or considering by means of an open source alternative, as LibreOffice.

    If you are going to have to upgrade your version of MS Office, and if you're going to go to Mac OS X Lion then, then I propose you go to MS Office 2011.

    There is some discuss about whether you can "install" MS Office 2008 for the reason that the installer might have been based PPC.anyone who got more info on this than reply

    In addition, MS has already stated that they will release free updates to MS Office 2011 to make it compatible with new features that have been introduced with Mac OS X Lion. Features such as the application of resume, auto-save w / version control and full-screen applications.

    You can also locate the cost of home and student version of MS Office 2011 is extremely reasonable. The only reason to acquire the business version is for Outlook and Outlook only if you actually necessitate.

    I have 10.7.2 and Office 2011 and all Office applications work fine. If you have to update, do not waste your time with the intermediary steps. Get the most recent for the majority excellent functionality.
