Microsoft has officially ended support for Office for Mac 2011 as scheduled, nearly seven years after the software suite was first released.
Office for Mac 2011. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Lync have not been tested on macOS 10.13 High Sierra, and no formal support for this configuration will be provided. Since October 10, 2017, Office for Mac 2011. is no longer supported. This means there will be no new security updates, non-security updates, free or paid assisted support.
2011 versions of Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint will no longer receive feature or security updates as of October 10, 2017. Any form of paid or free technical support from Microsoft has also ended indefinitely.
- Can't download the Office for Mac installer. Check to make sure your internet is working on the Mac you're trying to install on. Pause any other downloads you may have active. If you've started a download and it's stuck, delete the download file by dragging it to Trash. Empty the Trash.
- Support for Office for Mac 2011 ended October 10, 2017. Rest assured that all your Office 2011 apps will continue to function—they won't disappear from your Mac, nor will you lose any data. But here's what the end of support means for you: You'll no longer receive Office for Mac 2011 software updates from Microsoft Update.
Microsoft Lync for Mac 2011 still has an extended support period through October 9, 2018 for any possible security updates.
Since the mainstream support period for the rest of the Office for Mac 2011 was already extended beyond the usual five years, there is no extended support period for those apps. In other words, support has completely ended.
