Sep 17, 2009  To install Microsoft Office 2008 without Rosetta, try the following: 1. Download the following Office updates (you will need them later): a. Download Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Service Pack 1 (12.1.0) (180 MB) b. Download Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac Service Pack 2 (12.2.0) (297 MB) c. Download Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac 12.2.1 Update.

As an Office 365 admin, you can control which Office software your users can download and install from Office 365. The choices you make on the Office software download settings page determine which software users can install from the My account > Apps & devices page in Office 365. Whichever choices you make, they apply to all users in your organization.

Tip

To get to the Office software download settings page, sign in to the Microsoft 365 admin center with your admin account, and then go to Show all > Settings > Org settings > Services.

If you choose to make some software unavailable to users, they see a message on their My account > Apps & devices page instead of an Install button. For example, if you choose to make Office unavailable, users see this message:

Your admin has turned off Office installs. Contact your admin for more information about how to get Office in your organization.

Choose how often to get feature updates for Office

For Microsoft 365 Apps, you must choose how often you want users to get feature updates. For example, users can get new features to Microsoft 365 Apps as soon as they're ready, or once a month (on the second Tuesday of the month), or twice a year (in January and July, on the second Tuesday).

If you want some users to get feature updates every month, but have other users get feature updates only every six months, you can manually download and install the Office apps for your users by using the Office Deployment Tool. This gives you the control to select different feature update settings for different groups of users.

For more information, Overview of update channels for Microsoft 365 Apps.

Manually download and install the Office apps by using the Office Deployment Tool

If you don't want your users to install software themselves from Office 365, you can download the software to your local network. Then, you can deploy the software to your users by using your existing software deployment tools and processes.

To manually deploy Office, as well as Project or Visio, you need to use the Office Deployment Tool. You can download the Office Deployment Tool for free from the Microsoft Download Center.

You use the Office Deployment Tool to both download and deploy Office, such as Microsoft 365 Apps, to your users. If you already use other tools, such as Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager, to deploy software to your users, you can use the Office Deployment Tool along with those tools to deploy Office.

For more information, see Overview of the Office Deployment Tool.

Manually download InfoPath 2013 and SharePoint Designer 2013

In addition to Office, you can download InfoPath 2013 and SharePoint Designer 2013 in order to deploy them to your users. You can download them from the Microsoft Download Center by using the following links:

  • InfoPath 2013 (32-bit and 64-bit versions)

  • SharePoint Designer 2013 (32-bit and 64-bit versions)

Install Mac Software On Windows

After you download the software, you can use your existing software deployment tools and processes to deploy InfoPath or SharePoint Designer to your users.

Additional considerations about managing software download settings in Office 365

  • The list of Office software that appears on the Office software download settings page depends on the type of Office 365 (or Microsoft 365) plan that your organization has.

  • Users have to be local administrators on their computers to install Office software. If users aren't local administrators, you'll have to install Office for them.

  • Import a signature into preview app on mac. For users to be able to install Office, you need to assign them a license.

  • By default, Office installs all the apps that are included in your version of Office on the user's computer. If you want some users to get fewer apps, such as only Word and PowerPoint, you need to use the Office Deployment Tool to deploy Office to your users without those apps.

Office Mac 2008 No Software To Install Windows 10

Applies to:Office 2019 for Mac, Office 2016 for Mac

Office Mac 2008 No Software To Install Windows 7

The Volume Serializer (VL) is used to activate Office 2019 for Mac or Office 2016 for Mac as a volume licensed version. It's an approximately 4 mb package file that you run on a user's computer, either before or after you've installed Office.

Download the Volume License (VL) Serializer from the VLSC

To download the VL Serializer, do the following:

  1. Sign in to the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC).
  2. Select the Download and Keys tab.
  3. Depending on the version that you're deploying, search for 'Office 2019 for Mac Standard' or 'Office 2016 for Mac Standard.'
  4. Select the Download link in the results panel.
  5. Select the Continue button at the bottom of the window.
  6. Select the icon (circle with download arrow) to download the VL Serializer .iso file.
  7. Once the download is complete, mount the .iso file to extract the VL Serializer package file.

Make sure you have the correct VL serializer version for the version of Office that you're deploying to your users.

Office Mac 2008

Note

  • You can't use the VL Serializer for Office 2019 for Mac to activate a volume licensed version of Office 2016 for Mac.
  • Volume licensed versions of Office 2019 for Mac have version numbers of 16.17 or higher. Volume licensed versions of Office 2016 for Mac have version numbers of 16.16 or lower, such as 16.16.2 or 16.15.

Additional information about the VL Serializer

  • The volume license is located in the /Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.office.licensingV2.plist directory.
  • The licensing plist generated by the VL Serializer contains data that's encrypted by using the serial number of the boot drive on the computer where it was generated. Upon each Office application launch, the plist is decrypted by using the current boot drive serial number as the decryption key. If the data cannot be decrypted (for example, boot drive serial number is different), Office will go into an unlicensed state without warning.
  • Because the license plist file is encrypted using information from the computer on which it's installed, you can't copy it to a different computer to activate Office on that computer.
  • There's a single VL Serializer package that contains a single key that's shared between all volume licensed customer installations.
  • The VL Serializer package contains a binary executable that's named 'Microsoft Office Setup Assistant.' It's this executable that actually activates the volume license.
  • If you install the volume licensed version of Office 2016 for Mac from the .iso file downloaded from the VLSC, you don't need to run the VL Serializer. That installer package already has the VL Serializer functionality built-in. But, we recommend that you always download and install the most current version that's available on the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN) on the internet. For more information, see Download Office for Mac to your local network.
  • The VL Serializer package is compatible with mobile device management (MDM) servers such as Microsoft Intune, Jamf Pro, or FileWave.
