Unfortunately, what may work for some doesn’t always work for others. Possible Ways to Fix Mac Office 2011 Crashing in Yosemite Supposedly these crashes have been occuring sporadically even back to some Yosemite betas. I went searching for a solution on various forums but only seemed to find other people encountering the same issue.
It didn’t matter if I opened a document directly or one of the Office applications, within a few seconds, the Office App would crash.
Every time I launched Word, Excel or PowerPoint, the app would crash after a few seconds with an error asking if I wanted to recover my work, reopen the Office app and send the error to Microsoft. Recently, my version of Office for Mac (Office 2011), started crashing on my MacBook Pro.
