Moving from your PC to your new Mac? Consider it done.

With macOS, you can move all the information from your old PC to your new Mac. Built-in Windows-to-Mac migration in macOS automatically transfers your documents, music, contacts, calendars and email accounts (Outlook and Windows Live Mail), and puts them in the appropriate folders and applications on your new Mac. Just like that.

If you buy your Mac at an Apple Store, Personal Setup can help you get off to a great start.

Install Microsoft Office On Mac

If you would like to update Office but can't open any of your Office apps, try repairing your Office suite: Go to Control Panel Programs Uninstall a program. Find and select your version of Microsoft Office on your computer. In the bar above, click Change.

Work with anyone.

Every Mac comes with Pages, Numbers and Keynote — powerful productivity apps from Apple that help you create stunning documents, spreadsheets and presentations. You can collaborate with one person or many people to create and edit Pages, Keynote and Numbers files. And everyone can work on the same document at the same time — from across town or across the globe. You can also open, edit and save Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint files with these apps, so you can easily work with others, regardless of whether they’re on a Mac or PC.

Mar 11, 2014 New Version of Microsoft Office for Mac Slated for 2014 Release. Tuesday March 11, 2014 11:31 am PDT by Juli Clover. Microsoft is planning to introduce an updated version of its Office. Use Microsoft Word for the best word processing and document creation. Find out how document collaboration and editing tools can help polish your Word docs.

Use Microsoft Office for Mac. Connect to Microsoft Exchange Server.

Fun fact: there’s a version of Microsoft Office written just for Mac. So you can use Word, Excel and PowerPoint on a Mac just like on a PC.

macOS also provides built-in support for the latest version of Microsoft Exchange Server. So you can use all the apps you love on your Mac, and have access to your mail, contacts and calendar from the office, all at the same time.

Access your files from anywhere with iCloud.

Your Mac comes with iCloud Drive, which lets you safely store all your presentations, spreadsheets, PDFs, images and any other kinds of files in iCloud. Then you can access them from any device, including your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or PC.1

Industry standard‑bearer.

Thanks to its support for industry standards, macOS works with virtually all email providers and websites. It also lets you view the most common file types, including Office documents, PDFs, images, text files, MP3s, videos, ZIP files and more.

Keystrokes

So if you’re moving files from a PC or if your friends and colleagues send you files, you can rest assured they’ll work beautifully on your Mac.

Relax. Your camera, printer and mouse work too.

Almost any device that connects to a computer via USB, audio cable or Bluetooth will work with a Mac. That includes digital cameras, external hard drives, printers, keyboards, speakers, and even your right-click mouse. And with technologies like AirPrint and the array of class drivers included with macOS, you can start using these devices as soon as you plug them in — no need to manually download additional software.

A Mac can even run Windows.

Got a Windows application you need to use once in a while? No problem. Every new Mac lets you install and run Windows at native speeds, using a built-in utility called Boot Camp.

Setup is simple and safe for your Mac files. After you’ve completed the installation, you can boot up your Mac using either macOS or Windows. (That’s why it’s called Boot Camp.) Or if you want to run Windows and Mac applications at the same time — without rebooting — you can install Windows using VMware or Parallels software.2

Connect to PCs over a network.

The Finder not only lets you browse files on your Mac, it also makes it easy to find files on other computers — both Mac and PC — on your home network. Computers that allow file sharing automatically show up in the Shared section of the Finder sidebar, allowing you to browse files and folders you have permission to view.
