Companies compatible with Office 2013 - sm


Posted: Jun 04, 2014

I've noticed that some companies are insisting on 2007 or 2010 Office systems, depending on what their platforms support.  I currently work for a company whose platform is compatible with Office 2013, which is what I have on my PC, but we're running out of work more and more.  I need to find another company that will accept Office 2013.  Are there are any others out there?

Don't know of any, but...sm - KC

You can download a virtual earlier version of Windows onto your PC that will allow you to run Office 2007, etc. It runs separately from your main computer. It's a hassle, but it works.

Thanks, KC - sm

Microsoft doesn't support XP, so I need to keep my Windows 7.  But thank you for the info, KC.  Wink

Different versions of Office - nn

[ In Reply To ..]
I have to agree with some of the other posters. You are limiting yourself by having Office 2013 installed. I have Windows 7 and I run Office 2003. Many companies do not "like" 2013, because it is so different from other versions. You can also have two different versions of Word installed on your computer with no problems. At one time, I had 2003 and 2007 installed, so it can be done and yes, this was on a Windows 7 computer.

Need To Convert From Office 2013 To Office 2010
Apr 26, 2014

I'm starting with a new company next week.  My Windows 7 PC has Office 2013 Professional.  The new company's platform is only compatible with 2010 or earlier.  I don't have the money to spend on 2010, so I'll either have to decline the offer or try to find a way to install 2010 cheaply.  I thought I might be able to download a version for free, since it's not the newest version, but it doesn't look like I can do that.  Any ideas? ...

Is Word 2013 backwards compatible with Word 97-2003?

Is The Only Way To Purchase MS Word 2010 Or 2013

Need to buy MS Word for my new job.  However, when I purchased the 2007 version online it was an "academic version" only.  Can't use that.  I guess I have to buy a newer version, like 2010 or 2013, but it seems like the only way to do that is via download and then you pay a subscription of ??? per month or year?  This is fine by me IF the company will allow that.  I just want it to be legal and a licensed full version...obviously the one I purchased online was NOT.& ...

any trouble with Word not responding.  This happened to me a couple months ago, Geek Squad saw nothing wrong, it stopped happening and then today it happened 3 times within an hour.  Unfortunately I have to terminate the program, lose my work, reboot the system (or it will be extremely sluggish) and then it works fine.
