It appears users of Microsoft Office 2016 are experiencing a high incident of the applications crashing since they upgraded to OS X El Capitan. Microsoft has acknowledged the problem and has indicated they are working closely with Apple to come up with a solution but have not indicated when that might be released.

Sorry this link in this video not working anymore therfore made new video with new links which working 100% be pacient and follow this video link:https://www. Made with Mac in mind, Office 2016 for Mac gives you access to your favorite Office applications - anywhere, anytime and with anyone. Includes new versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote. See what's new in Office 2016. Your school may offer. Office 2016 for Mac for free. Search for your school below to claim this academic deal. If you're one of the many people for whom El Capitan essentially killed Office 2016 for the Mac, you've finally got a fix. OS X 10.11.1 is out, and it appears to fix the problem. Outlook 2016 for Mac also takes advantage of the new OS X El Capitan feature, Split View. This one calls for an even higher resolution, minimum 1550 pixels. To activate it, click File New Main.

Emails released by Microsoft have acknowledged the issue and one senior program manager, commented:

“We are aware of the issue with Outlook 2011 on El Capitan and of Office 2016 on El Capitan,” “We are working on a fix for 2011, and for 2016, we are working closely with Apple to resolve this issue as soon as possible,” “Unfortunately, we do not have any timelines for either fix, please stay tuned and thank you for your understanding.”

These problems may not be coming as a surprise to some as a review of message boards shortly after the release of the first public beta of OS X El Capitan in late July made mention of these issues.

A support discussion on Microsoft’s site (currently) goes on for 25 pages with close to 250 messages about the issue. Here is a link to the Microsoft Support Page so you can read some of them yourself.

No one is saying whether Microsoft had access to the pre-release versions of OS X El Capitan prior to its release on September 30th but given the popularity of the office suite, and the fact that Apple regularly makes their software available to third parties prior to a release, we would expect that they did get a copy. Beyond that, we suspect that at least some of the nearly 120,000 Microsoft employees obtained a copy of the pre-release software as part of Apple’s public beta program and certainly cold have done their own testing.

Until a solution is presented it will be hard to know whether this issue is caused by a problem with Microsoft’s application or something within the OS X El Capitan operating system. Regardless, absent evidence of other applications having a similar issue or more widespread crashes across the OS X El Capitan platform, we see this as Microsoft’s problem to fix.

One frustrated Microsoft user posted:

“You cannot blame Apple for this. It is down to Microsoft to test and update their own software to run on updated operating systems,” “How would Apple have access to the development code for a Microsoft product?”

Testing of the first maintenance release of El Capitan (10.11.1) is already in the hands of beta testers and no one is saying whether a fix for this issue is, or will be included in that release.

The Bottom Line

Our suggestion is, at least for the time being, if you are thinking of upgrading to Office 2016 for Mac, wait until this issue has been address and fixed. If you are using an older version of the Office suite, you should be OK. If you have already upgraded to Office 2016 for Mac and are experiencing issues, you may want to consider uninstalling the office suit and reverting back to an older version or using an alternative suite of applications.

If you are using a newer Mac, you should already have access to Apple’s Pages, Numbers and Keynote applications, all of which can save files in an Office compatible format.

Another option is one of the free, Open Source Office alternatives like Apache Open Office or Libre Office just to name two.

We’ll continue to follow this situation and provide an update when a solution is finally provided.

Since upgrading to El Capitan 10.11.6, Microsoft Office 2016 will not run on my computer. I use Outlook and Excel almost daily as well as Word and Powerpoint and none of them will even start on my computer.


Upon trying to open either of these applications, a pop up saying:


'Microsoft Outlook cannot be opened because of a problem.

Check with the developer to make sure Microsoft Outlook works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.

Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple.'
