Hi James, Visio Pro for Office 365 is a standalone subscription. You need to purchaes it seperately then add it to Office 365 plan. It allows each user to install Visio on up to five PCs running Windows 7 or Windows 8. But Visio is not support for Mac, it doesn't work on Macs. If there is anything that I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back. Best regards, Greta Ge TechNet Community Support It's recommended to download and install, which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office programs.
Currently there is no Visio for MAC OS, as a workaround, you can host Visio Diagrams on SharePoint (to enable the data coonectivity), or any site when exporting the diagram as an html (will lose the data connectivity), and then you will be able to view the diagrams in the browser by any device. Hi, I am a PC;-) So, I am not familiar with the MAC environment. Do you know if it exists a Mac version of Visio 2010 or earlier? I have create a template associated to different stencils and I am asked if they will work on a Mac. What is your Visio replacement on MAC? There is a graph APP called OmniGrafle for macs, and like in visio, you need to look for stencils. I started using this app resently so I am not fully familiar with its full capability in comparison with visio but it can do network diagrams.
Office 365 is the name of the marketing program where you lease Microsoft Office instead of purchase. The Office 365 program includes Mac and Windows versions of Office. So yes, you could install Visio Pro Office in a Windows partition and boot directly to Microsoft Windows using Apple's built-in Boot Camp, or you could run Windows and Mac OS simultaneously using a virtual machine in Parallels (or competing VMWare but I prefer Parallels). You can run Office for Mac in Mac OS X - or Office for Windows in Windows under the Office 365 program. I know this thread is a bit old but it's clear there's still a lot of misunderstanding regarding whether you can use Visio with Office 365 on Mac. Since I've been in this situation and resolved it, I thought I would add my 2 cents. The simple answer is, without a virtual machine, you cannot run Visio Pro in Office 365 on Mac.
Office 365 is tied to the desktop version of Microsoft Visio which isn't available for Mac. However, if you were to install and run Windows on your Mac in a partition, you could then use Office 365 on a Mac. I tried this workaround though and found it was very laggy and made using the Mac very slow at times.
Visio For Mac Alternative
I'm currently trying a few Visio alternatives - there's many suggestions here: some of which can also edit Visio files. I'd much rather use a native Mac or cloud solution than try to run a virtual environment all the time. Sorry rant over - hope this has helped others!

Hello Nadeem, Currently there is no Visio for MAC OS, as a workaround, you can host Visio Diagrams on SharePoint (to enable the data coonectivity), or any site when exporting the diagram as an html (will lose the data connectivity), and then you will be able to view the diagrams in the browser by any device. The good news is in Visio upcoming roadmap (6 to 24 months) there will be native Visio apps for iPad and iPhone for both diagram viewing and editing:) However, could you please send your case for your need, like the number of users (colleagues or team) that also needs to have Visio on MAC OS to me @? Thanks a lot, Sherif Adel.
