Technician's Assistant: Are you getting any error messages? Have you rearranged your file folders recently? Trying to install it, I get the fallowing message: You can’t open the application “OfficeSetup.exe” because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on macOS.

You’ll find the same app in a cut back form on your iPhone and iPad devices too. Microsoft also offers the Home and Student bundle which includes Word, Excel and PowerPoint – this is a Family pack which comes with 3 licenses to use and currently also comes with a $20 iTunes card.

It’s still supported by Microsoft, offers contacts and calendars all in the one application and plays nicely in current versions of Mac OSX. If you want to stay with the Microsoft way of doing things the Outlook as part of the Office 2011 for Mac suite would be your best bet.

This means Microsoft won’t support the software and third party service providers are finding it harder to support than ever. If you’re using either Entourage or Outlook 2008 you are using currently unsupported software. Entourage is the Mac only equivalent of Windows’ Outlook, (released in October 2000), and was replaced by Outlook for Mac in the 20 Microsoft Office bundles.
