Version 15.25 is available in 32-bit, but you'll have to jump through a couple of hoops to get it. Some customers might not be prepared for a switch to 64-bit Office therefore, the company will be offering one more 32-bit build. Once each channel has transitioned to 64-bit, that's all that will be available. As Microsoft says, 'unlike Windows, there is no choice between running a 32-bit or 64-bit version of the operating system.'īecause of this, Microsoft will not continue to offer a 32-bit version of Office for Mac. Today's update is 15.25, which Insiders have had for a couple weeks.Įver since Apple released Mac OS X 10.7 Lion back in 2010, the company's desktop OS has only supported 64-bit Intel processors however, until Microsoft announced 64-bit Office, the productivity suite has only been offered in 32-bit. It was originally offered to Office Insiders back in July as version 15.24. Microsoft today began offering a 64-bit version of Office for Mac to users on the Production channel.
