Activate office for mac 2011

How you activate Office depends on whether you have a Microsoft 365 subscription or a one-time purchase of Office.

Microsoft 365 subscription

If you have a Microsoft 365 subscription, you won't need a product key to activate. Instead you'll sign in with the email address that's associated with Office.

1. In the Get Started wizard, click Sign in to an existing Microsoft 365 subscription.

   Tip: If the wizard isn't open, start an Office application and click Activate Now.

   

2. Sign in with the email address that's associated with Office, and select Next.

   Tip: If nothing happens when you select Next, use the Enter key on your keyboard.
