How To Install/Setup Office 2019 In MacOS
With setup Office 2019 in MacOS products for Mac, you can't download the Office installation files directly from the VLSC. Instead, you'll download an activation tool called the Volume License (VL) Serializer from the VLSC and then separately download the Office installation files from Microsoft through the Office Content Delivery Network (CDN).
The instructions for performing all these steps are provided in the VLSC under the Downloads and Keys tab for each Office 2019 product for Mac. We're including those same instructions here with more details for organizations that need more assistance.
Step One: Register at the VLSC and Accept Your Software Agreement
If you haven't already, register at the VLSC and accept your software license agreement for the setup Office 2019 in MacOS products you requested by completing only steps one and two in our VLSC quick-start guide.
Step Two: Download and Install the Volume License Serializer
- Sign in to the VLSC.
- Select the Downloads and Keys tab.
- Find your Office 2019 for Mac product in the list and click its Download link.
- Change the Download Method to "Web Browser" instead of "Download Manager" and click the Continue button at the bottom of the window.
- Click the download icon (circle with a downward arrow) to download the Volume License Serializer .iso file.
- Once the download is complete, open the .iso file to extract the Volume License Serializer package file.
- Run the Volume License Serializer package file on each computer that you'll be installing a volume licensed Office 2019 for Mac product on.
If you requested more than one kind of Office 2019 for Mac product, you'll repeat this process for each product.
We suggest running the Volume License Serializer before you install your Office 2019 for Mac products in the next step, but you can also run the serializer afterward if you prefer.
Step Three: Download and Install Your Products
The download links to obtain your Office 2019 for Mac products from the Office CDN should be included in the text instructions that appear when you click the Download link for each product in the VLSC.
However, you can also find the download links for the Office 2019 suite and individual applications directly from Microsoft.
For the Office for Mac 2019 suite, you can choose whether you want the download to include Microsoft Teams (Microsoft's communications platform) or not. After you've downloaded the installation package, open it and follow the instructions to install your product.
If you need to customize your installation or need more detailed instructions, you can refer to Microsoft's Office for Mac deployment guide for IT professionals.
