Introduction: How to Install Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac for Free
My Microsoft Word was recently updated and now I am having problems copying and pasting from one file to another as well as pasting into an email. Can't copy and paste after word update (Word for Mac). I called customer service and was told I'd had to agree to buy a maintenance agreement before they would help me. Microsoft Office for Mac adds rich new features to the familiar Office applications you already know, helping you to manage your home and schoolwork the way you want.

Tip: I had to upgrade my OS X because you can't install Office for Mac with any version of OS X below 10.10. To see my tutorial on how to upgrade your OS X go here.
I also had some internet interruptions on my initial download to my downloads folder and had a hard time opening the package because it did not download the full 2.6GB. Make sure that you fully downloaded the package.
Step 2: Read and Agree to Licensing Agreement
The software license agreement comes in many languages, this one in English. Once you read the agreement, you will have scrolled to the bottom. Click continue to agree.
