Office for Mac 2008 License key transfer?

Hello, I have a Microsoft Office for Mac 2008 Home and Student edition. It is to my understanding that I have 3 license keys. I've already used up all 3 license keys on 3 different computers. However, this is my situation. I bought a new Mac and want to install Office on it. Am I able to uninstall Office on my old Mac, then install Office on my new Mac with the same license key I use on my old Mac? Or what should I do? Thanks!

Will there be a 2008->2010 upgrade?

I just bought the 2008 home/student version, and wonder if there will be an upgrade option for the 2010/2011 version, instead of buying a complete new Office suite? --  Steen

How to open Microsoft Office 2004 with Microsoft Office 2004 and not with Microsoft Office 2008 on Mac?

How to open Microsoft Office 2004 on Mac with Microsoft Office 2004 and not with Microsoft Office 2008 on Mac? If both Microsoft Office 2004 and Microsoft Office 2008 are installed on the Mac, the latter opens all Microsoft Office 2004 files (.doc, ..ppt and .xls) by default. I know that it was intended as a feature, but it is a real pain, nightmare and tremendous waste of time if you have both Microsoft Office 2004 and Microsoft Office 2008 installed on the same Mac. And must have both. Amazingly, if the File - Get Info - Open with is changed to the corresponding Office 20

Office won't open

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Office, but still none of the applications will open properly. What can I try next? <br><br>Thanks, in anticipation, for your help.

mail Merge - labels

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel I have made labels previously with no problem but now I am having difficulty. Originally I used a Mac database and converted it to Word. Now I can't remember how I did that so I went to the trouble of typing the list of names I needed into an Excel workbook. When I try to create the labels, the <br> sheet says &quot;next record&quot; in all the cells except the first one, which remains blank. <br> When I try to enter the merge fields, it just shows the first name on my list. What am I doing wrong?

Windows 7 leaves a lot to be desired

I could not find a Windows 7 group, so I chose General Discussion I am a very satisfied Vista user with two new Win 7 machines. I believe that with the advertising campaign "Simpler" Microsoft is leading the world on a merry chase. My complaints have to do with music, WMP12, and Windows Explorer. In Explorer, when I went to my music library, I could not see album art files. I was told that these files were hidden and to just change the configuration to show hidden files. I did that and while some of them show, many do not. My other complaints have to do with tagging of mu

Can you apply the built-in slide themes to individual slides?

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) I've just switched over from a PC. I used to be able to apply different built-in slide themes to INDIVIDUAL slides within the same presentation. On my Mac, it will only apply them to the entire presentation. I can't find any way of only applying them to individual slides. Surely there must be a way to do it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. <br><br>FZ

Adjusting the toolbar

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) When I am doing a Word document, I like to have an extensive toolbar up so that I can easily make changes as I go along. But I can't get my customized toolbar to stay up after I've finished working on the doc. The next time I open the doc or when I start a new doc, the toolbar is empty. The only way I can get it back up again is to go into View and remove the options I've set (which actually aren't on the screen) and re-install them. How can I get the full toolbar to stay up permanently?
