Description: Here is a collection of our frequently asked questions for Office 2013.

How to install Microsoft Office 2013.

1. In order to install Office 2013, you will need a Microsoft Account (think Apple ID or Google Account). Your current email (yourname@yourISP.com), another portal email (yourname@gmail.com or yourmail@yahoo.com), or a Microsoft portal email (hotmail.com, live.com or outlook.com) can all be used for your Microsoft account. Before you start downloading Office 2013, create a Microsoft Account if you don't already have one. Remember, when you do create the Microsoft Account you'll also have to log into the email account you used to find the email that validates your Microsoft Account.
2. Now you're ready to go to www.office.com/setup, enter the 25 character Product Key that came in the package, sign into the newly created (AND VALIDATED!) Microsoft Account in order to begin the download.
3. It seems a bit confusing at first, but if you separate the creation and validation of a Microsoft Account (which will come in handy going forward for use with your cloud storage and synchronizing your information across Microsoft devices) from the installation of Microsoft Office 2013 it will go smoother and quicker.
