I have downloaded the file from Microsoft and then mounted the disk image but 'Office Installer' simply opens in textedit as script. I've tried opening with Mac OS X installer and that doesn't work either. Any more suggestions? I have OSX 10.8.2
Processes in Microsoft 365 for setting up Office apps, redeeming product keys, and activating licenses.

Do a Get Info (Command-I) on the file.
Corrected;
The .pkg installer opens with Installer. The .dmg installers opens with DiskImageMounter.
Under Open with, select Installer
Select "Change All" button
Thanks, that's helpful.
I also discovered that doing a safe boot before starting the installation works.
