    You dont need a product key, just make sure you sign in on installation

    You shouldn't need a product key. At some point, you're asked whether you're installing a personal version or one given to you via a business or university scheme. Selecting the latter should enable you to install it without ever entering a product key, but rather just logging in with your NTU email + password.

    It keeps asking for the  product key.

    I figured it out. You have to sign in with your 'N number@my.ntu.ac.uk and your password. and not your normal email address 'john.doe2012@my.Ntu.ac.uk'

    I've clicked on 'Office 365' at the top left of my NTU emails several times and it re-directs the page back to my NTU emails.

    Need some help, please.

    Regards,

    In your email account you look top right - Settings -> Office 365 Settings -> Software -> and then you have your "Install" steps. Good luck!

    Hey,

    I type in "N0317286@my.ntu.ac.uk" at the sign in screen (the screen before you need to put in your password), but it won't allow me to click 'next'? Any idea why..?

    Thanks

    Is there a reason no desktop icons were installed? I can open office 2013 but only if i search for word or powerpoint etc specifically.

     

    Thanks.

    Hi Alice,

    This is standard for the install of Office. On a Windows PC you can add the icons to the desktop by going to Start, All Programs, Microsoft Office 2013, here you can right click on the Office applications go to Send To and choose Desktop.

    Hi Carl,

    Same thing happens, but I'm not that bothered, I'll just use the reduced functionality.

    When I try to sign in with N number NTU email address, it won't let me sign in, saying "We couldn't find an account with that email address.  Would you like to sign up for a new Microsoft account?"

    What  should I do?!

    Hi,

    I have installed Office but I cannot open any documents on any of the programs. I can't open documents I have previously saved with MS Word or Excel 2010 and I can't open a new/blank document with 2013. I just get a message saying "Microsoft Word/Excel/Powerpoint has stopped working" and then the program closes itself down.

    Please can I have some help with this? I am using Windows 7 and already have MS Office 2010 installed on my PC. I have tried it once and uninstalled it, and then reinstalled but still get the same problems.

    Thanks. Dave

    I found the answer on the internet. In case anyone else has the same problem, here's how to solve it:

    Your problem sounds similar to one I had where neither Excel no Word would open a document. They would start and go to the document selection screen, but when I would pick a document I would get an error message telling me that the program had stopped working.  I searched the internet for a solution and on the Microsoft Community site I came across a mention of a problem caused by ABBYY Finereader  and as it happens this program was installed as part of my printers software.  I uninstalled the program and my problems with Office have disappeared.  It worked for me, it may work for you.

    It worked for me too....can open new and old documents on all programs now.
