Hi, I have problems. to install. Office 365 on my mac running 12.7 with an intel processor. Not long. ago this was also supported but now after I had to re install the. mac it is no longer supported. I can´t install Mac OS 13 on my intel mac. So my problem now is, that I can´t use office 365 anymore, Is there an option to install an older version which is still compatible. Can you provide a downloadlink?

Thanks in advance Thorsten

    Hello Thorsten Werner1,  

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you want to activate your Office applications on an earlier version of Mac OS. As you know, Apple devices typically have better application compatibility with the latest three system versions. For Mac, these are currently MacOS 13, 14, and 15.

    To use Office on MacOS 12.7, you need to download an earlier version of the Office application to match the system version. For information on compatibility with earlier versions of Mac OS, you can refer to this article: Upgrade macOS to continue receiving Microsoft 365 and Office for Mac updates - Microsoft Support This link provides the installer for older versions of Office. For your MacOS 12.7 Monterey, you need to download the August 2024 update (16.88): Update history for Office for Mac - Office release notes | Microsoft Learn

    Before installing, it is recommended to run the license removal tool to delete any existing Office licenses to avoid interference during activation: How to remove Office license files on a Mac - Microsoft Support

    Hi Unfortunately, this does not work. It always pops up an error message after the installer finished saying an error occurred and please contact your Serviceprovider.

    I tried to install 16.8 an lower versions. I have installed 12.7.6 on my Mac.

    Best Regards

    Thorsten
