You can sometimes move Office to a new Mac, but the safe answer is not just yes or no. It depends on the version you own, whether the license is already linked to your Microsoft account, and whether the transfer terms allow the move.<\/p>\n
The first thing to avoid is guessing. Before you buy a new key or assume your current one will move cleanly, check the license type, the original Mac, and the Microsoft account tied to the product.<\/p>\n
Short answer<\/p>\n
Yes, you can sometimes move Office to a new Mac, but only after checking the transfer terms, the Microsoft account linked to the license, and the original-device status. Microsoft’s support articles say one-time Office purchases are licensed for one install only, and if you transfer to a different computer under the license terms, you should activate it by phone and uninstall Office from the original computer.<\/p>\n
