Post subject: Product Key
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>mac>otherproducts (more info?)

Hello,

I just installed Microsoft Office for Mac on 3 of my Mac computers but stupidly I used the same product key on all,although I have 3 product keys. Now I have the issue of not been able to use i.e Word or Powerpoint since my computers are all on the same network. I get a message that the program is already in use on another computer on my network. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling so I can use my other product keys but it does not give me the option to add a different product key. Need help in adding a product key on the 2 other Macs on my network. Thanks

Did you uninstall with the uninstaller?? That should remove the product
key.
If it doesn't, you might want to consider trashing the Office prefs as
well.
What version of Office do you have?

With all Office apps closed, delete these two files on one of the
machines:

Microsoft Office 2008 Settings.plist

in the

~:Library:Preferences:Microsoft:Office 2008:

folder (where ~ is your home folder), and

OfficePID.plist

in the

HD:Applications:Microsoft Office 2008:Office:

folder. When you next start an Office app, you'll be asked for a CD Key.
