There are a wide variety of Office 365 pricing schemes, but the personal edition of Office 365 starts at $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year for use on one PC, one tablet, and one phone. The final release of Office 2016 offers no big surprises for adventurous users who've been working with the preview version that Microsoft released back in May, and offers an almost flat learning curve for longtime users who feel at home editing documents in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, and taking notes in OneNote. The big changes appear when you start editing collaboratively in Word, PowerPoint, and OneNote, with two or more users editing the same document simultaneously and optionally exchanging text, voice, or video chat via Skype, with the Skype functions accessible directly from the document.

Microsoft gets an earful as Office for Mac 2016 users amp ire over crashes Apple's latest beta of OS X 10.11.1, aka El Capitan's first update, lists Office 2016 as an area of focus, hinting the OS. Exit all open Microsoft Office applications. This includes Outlook and Microsoft OneNote. On the menu bar, click Go, select Utilities, and then double-click Terminal.

You can see my receipt right there, in the screenshot below. Are you starting to feel the dread? After a year or so away from doing Microsoft installs, I'd forgotten just how much of a DMV-like experience dealing with Microsoft products can be. Let the runaround begin. One note before I begin.

For my Office 2016 applications on the latest version of Mac OS X (10.11.4) via my Office 365 subscription, I encounter the error, 'Microsoft Error Reporting quit unexpectedly,' upon launching any of the applications in normal mode. I can, however, open the Office applications in safe mode.

Upgraded to MS Office 2016 (now at v15.18) on my 17' MacBook Pro and installed the latest service pack as recommended for Exchange 2010 to work with this Outlook upgrade. Why won't adobe flash player install. When I open Outlook 2016 it works ok for a while then changes to a 'Sync pending for this folder' status. Office 2019 and Office 2016: Use the Activation Troubleshooter (non-subscription Office products) The Activation Troubleshooter runs on Windows PCs and can fix activation errors for Office Home & Student, Office Home & Business, Office Professional, and individual Office apps, like Visio, Project, Word, and Outlook.

Figure: MS Excel in Safe Mode Solution 2: Change the ‘Default Printer’ Although it may seem irrelevant, changing the default printer is another easy and effective solution to overcome the error. Reason being, Excel communicates with the printer to find supported margins when we open an Excel sheet. If Excel doesn’t find the supported margin, it crashes. The steps to change the default printer are as follows: • Open Control Panel on your Windows system • Click Printer and Devices • Right-click Microsoft XPS Document Writer to set it to the default printer • Reopen the Excel document to check whether the error occurs or not. Figure: Change in Default Printer Setting Solution 3: Install the latest Windows and Office Updates This problem may also occur if Windows and Office Updates are not updated. Therefore, install the latest updates for both Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office. You can set the installation and update option to ‘Automatic mode’ so that Excel gets the latest update consistently, without the need for manual intervention.

I've turned on error logging but there are no errors logged. I am considering uninstalling Outlook:Mac and all files, then reinstalling but I think that's a fairly drastic solution and I don't know if it will solve the issue since it's related to syncing.

Gosh, I'm getting tired of the hassles Microsoft seems to engineer into their products. I'm certainly going to advocate for solutions that are less hassle. The thing is, there are a lot of substitute solutions and losing hours to Microsoft's unnecessary inconvenience, incomprehensible restrictions, and regressive policies is getting really, really old.
