Microsoft Office 2016 For Mac Beachball
You can now get Office Add-ins from the Store or use Add-ins you already have from right within recent versions of Word for Mac and Excel for Mac.
There are two kinds of add-ins: Office Add-ins from the Office Store (which use web technologies like HTML, CSS and JavaScript) and add-ins made by using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).
If you're looking for a built-in add-in such as Solver or Analysis ToolPak, select the Tools menu and then select Add-ins.
Now falls to non-Microsoft employees like me who volunteer to take their own personal time to try to help fellow Office users. The steps you provided to reproduce the problem are clear. The Microsoft employees should have disconnected their internet connection on their Mac and launched Outlook to see what happens. Jan 28, 2016 I get an Office 365 licence for free from my university and so upgraded to 2016 when it was released. 2011 Excel and Powerpoint were fine, but I found Word to be horribly outdated, laggy when handling larger documents and difficult to navigate using the Mac trackpad. 2016 Word is far superior to navigate and use, and looks much more clean.
Get an Office Store add-in for Word or Excel for Mac
On the Insert menu, select Add-ins.
To get new add-ins, select Store. To use add-ins you already have, select My Add-ins.
The add-ins you'll see will depend on the app you're using and the kind of Office 365 subscription you have.
Office for Mac doesn't currently support organization-based add-ins.
Get a VBA add-in for Word or Excel for Mac
On the Tools menu, select Add-Ins.
In the Add-Ins available box, select the add-in you want, and then click OK.
Requirements
Office Add-ins aren't available in Office for Mac 2011. They're only available in newer versions.
