Trying to activate my Office:Mac 2011 to my new MacAir. Problems activating

Migration of Office:mac2011 did not work; new MacAir will not let me use office as activation fails. Where do I add Product Key to activate?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.13

Office 2011 doesn’t work on a new Mac because Office 2011 is still 32-bit. You can go to their website and subscribe to Microsoft Office 365 or download and install the free Office Libre for Mac. https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/install-howto/macos/ It works fine together with older Office-files. Also Apple’s own Pages, Numbers and Keynote that is already on your Mac is an option (depends on your needs)
