So here's the story. I ordered Office 2016 for Mac through the Microsoft Home Use Program, through my works email. I got the link and sent it to my home email address so that I could download the files at home, on to my sons IMac, for his college work. After updating his mac to IoS X, it finally let me install Office 2016. After a little whirring and blinking, the installer ran and Office 2016 for Mac was on my Mac.
