Microsoft Office appears to be experiencing activation issues on both Mac and PC today, according to several user reports on Twitter.

MacRumors also received emails from multiple readers affected.At least some Office 365 subscribers who have attempted to use Word, Outlook, and other apps in the Microsoft Office suite have been prompted to reactivate their license, but the process fails to complete.Affected users have encountered various errors while Office apps hang on 'activating' or 'looking for licenses,' which eventually leads to a window that says 'no license found,' with seemingly no workaround.

Microsoft has officially ended support for Office for Mac 2011 as scheduled, nearly seven years after the software suite was first released.2011 versions of Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint will no longer receive feature or security updates as of October 10, 2017. Any form of paid or free technical support from Microsoft has also ended indefinitely.Microsoft Lync for Mac 2011 still has an extended support period through October 9, 2018 for any possible security updates.Since the mainstream support period for the rest of the Office for Mac 2011 was already extended beyond the usual five years, there is no extended support period for those apps. In other words, support has completely ended.Earlier this year, Microsoft said it had not even tested Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Lync on macOS High Sierra, but some users on the web have reported that the suite is mostly functional on the new operating system.
