Some of these items were previously available in the object palette of the Toolbox in older versions of Office.Ĭonnecting with online contacts has been improved in this latest version of Office. You can even access movies and iMovie projects directly from the movies tab. Media Browser has also been improved as it has better access to iPhoto libraries and your iTunes playlists directly from the Photos and Audio tabs that are on the Media Browser in Word, PowerPoint, Outlook and PowerPoint. The great thing about this setup is that within the Template gallery you can customise the templates by changing the fonts, colours, and even aspect rations for PowerPoint presentations. They work across Word, Excel and PowerPoint and are your starting point when creating a new document. You can find your custom templates and your recently opened documents here too. These galleries are dynamic and give you easy access to a load of professionally designed templates and even more online. This helps make things much easier to find and far quicker to use. The ribbon brings features together that have previously been spread across various locations like the Formatting Palette and Elements gallery. Office 2011 for the Mac now has the new and improved ribbon interface that has been part of the Windows suite for some time. To use all of the features in Office 2011 you will have to have OS X 10.5 Leopard or higher.
#MICROSOFT OFFICE FOR MAC 2010 VS 2011 INSTALL#
The full install took just over 10 minutes and there was no restart required or any hitches during or after the setup.
#MICROSOFT OFFICE FOR MAC 2010 VS 2011 UPGRADE#
I have installed Office 2011 for Mac on my recently purchased iMac 27” i7 Machine so this will be a full install and not an upgrade over a previous version. Home and Student, and Home and Business, also come in two-user and three-user versions, priced at 109.99 and 239.99 respectively. Those able to get along without an extra email client on their Macs can get the Home and Student version for £89.99 with Home and Business adding Outlook for £189.99. Pricing: Probably the least attractive aspect of Office once again is the pricing, which is significantly more than the £49 for iWork. Well I’m pleased to say that there are far more improvements made in this version than even I expected there would be and nearly all of them will be useful to you at some time or another. Office 2011 for the Mac was announced a long time ago and we have been following along the entire time and we now have our hands on the final version. Load times were getting longer despite having new hardware and just the general feel of Office 2008 was dated compared even to Apple’s own Pages application.
The latest Office 2010 release on Windows really improved things to no end for the suite and made Office 2008 on the Mac feel obsolete. Ever since Microsoft first announced the next version of Office for the Mac, I have been eagerly waiting for it.
