Office Product Key Finder is product key recovery software for Microsoft Office 2008 for MAC and Microsoft Office 2004 for MAC. The software allows to recover and find microsoft office 25 character product key for Microsoft Office for MAC. We have had a quite a few questions on the topic of using a Mac to run Project Online, so I took myself into uncharted territory (for me), acquired a MacBook Pro from our labs, running OS X 10.8.3 and set to work to see what it could do. First I’ll set the scene – we support access to Project Web App (PWA) both for Project Server 2013 and Project Online using Safari on the Apple Mac, but we do not have a version of Project Professional 2013, or Project Pro for Office 365 that runs natively on OS X. So I knew to be able to run everything I’d either have to load Windows 8 using Boot Camp (which wasn’t the point of the exercise) or find some virtualization software that runs on OS X and allows me to run Windows 8 and the Office 2013 programs. After a quick search I found Parallels Desktop 8 and VMware Fusion 5. I’m making no judgment on either product, and don’t expect a full review – and there are other products too (Oracle’s VirtualBox, is another one), but it didn’t take long to get the trial versions of both these products up and running with Windows 8, Office 2013 and Project Professional 2013 (I could have loaded Project Pro for Office 365 – same thing, virtually.). I also wanted to use Excel on the Mac, and unfortunately the installed trial had expired. No problem – I had a license for Office 365 Home Premium with some spare installs out of the 5, so I could load Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook! Great that you can mix and match the installs of Home Premium across PC and Mac. Office for mac 2016 calendar contacts and email on same panel. ![]() ![]() I soon mastered Command, Shift, 4 – so on with the blog! PWA, was obviously no issue and felt just like using IE and my PC.
The first expected issue was trying to open a Project in Project Professional: and as expected, this didn’t work. I didn’t dig deeper, but if anyone knows of a way to re-direct the call to the VM that would be a nice feature. One interesting addition – which makes me think it should be possible to get Safari talking to Project Pro in the VM, courtesy of Parallels Desktop 8, was an additional icon in Safari, that allowed me to re-open my current session in IE, within the virtual Windows 8 environment. I hadn’t even opened Parallels Desktop 8 at this point, so it started the VM and took me to the very nice Santa Monica picture to log in to Project Online So I could open my Project in the copy of Project Professional 2013 within the virtual environment: Another nice feature was the ability to add my Windows 8 applications to the Launchpad, alongside the native Office applications.
