There is no patch for this version of Office either.Īs a work around, i've downloaded a 30 day trial of iWork for her. Our version of Office doesn't support this and the new version of Office won't run on our old machine, so an upgrade is not an option without a new computer. Now, we have an old G4 Mac with the original Office X.
Wife is competent, but no more, with Word and Excel at the minute. She will be primarily be using word processing and spreadsheets, and sending docs back and forth to her colleagues who all use Office. Since late 2013, Apple had been bundling these apps with new iPhones, iPads, iPod touch devices and Macs, or making them free to download.My wife has got a new job which gives her the opportunity to work from home sometimes if she doesn't mind using her own home computer. iMovie and GarageBand for Mac were $14.99 and $4.99, respectively, and their iOS counterparts were $4.99 on the App Store. Prior to the price change, the Mac versions of the iWork apps were $19.99 and the iOS versions were $9.99 apiece for those customers who hadn’t bought a new device in the past few years. Meanwhile, GarageBand and iMovie are more consumer-focused tools, for music and video editing. IWork is actually a suite of productivity apps - Numbers, Keynote and Pages - meant to rival Microsoft Office and Google Docs. The news of the price change was first reported by MacRumors, and we’ve confirmed. This expands the apps’ reach to anyone using Apple devices, even if they never bought new or are using older devices. The pricing change, however, removes the requirement to have bought new Apple hardware to get the apps for free.
Many customers already had free copies of these apps, as they came free with new Mac or iOS devices.
Apple quietly rolled out updated versions of its iWork, iMovie and GarageBand apps on Mac and iOS today, making them free for all customers on both platforms.
