Along with the latest version of Office programs, you can put Office on five household PCs or Macs, use 60-anytime Skype minutes per month, and more.

What i would like to know: In which intervalls will the office applications need an internet connection to check for an active subscription? For example: If I payed for a one-year-subscription, could I use office a year without internet or will the programs automatic be deactivated after an unknown period without internet?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.office.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=34042" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.office.com/b/office_blog/archive/2012/10/01/webinar-what-is-office-subscription.aspx#34041Thu, 04 Oct 2012 23:21:33 GMT53587256-c606-4c9b-bad4-97c86b12ce62:34041Doug Thomas<p>Good question. The way it works for me is the same with Office 2010: programs are there, you can only work with the docs you have. However, if you want to upload a new copy, the document is held in an upload center. Next time you connect, the documents update with SkyDrive.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.office.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=34041" width="1" height="1">http://blogs.office.com/b/office_blog/archive/2012/10/01/webinar-what-is-office-subscription.aspx#34039Thu, 04 Oct 2012 22:09:49 GMT53587256-c606-4c9b-bad4-97c86b12ce62:34039sebgr<p>How will the scenario be handled if I use Office as subscription service and the device I use doesn&#39;t have an internet connection for a longer time after installation?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://blogs.office.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=34039" width="1" height="1">
