I purchased Office for my new MacBook. The Excel, Powerpoint, and Word applications were installed without a problem, but when I try log in to Outlook it won't let me. It requires me to sign in with an existing account (my email doesn't work for some reason, though I have Microsoft for my email too and the username/passwords are correct) or enter my product key (which doesn't work either, though I entered it correctly). Any suggestions?
I have consistently had this same problem since installing Office for Mac 2011.
I should have use the help line when it was free.

Problem: When writing an email in Outlook, I constantly see the spinning wheel in between each key stroke. This spinning wheel caused a latency of from 3 to 10 seconds between each key stroke. It's driving me crazy and I have all but abandoned Outlook for other email programs. I visited the Outlook 2011 Forum but with no solution. I have checked "rules" I have deleted all the caches using "Cocktail". It looks like Outlook is looking for something between or checking for something with each key stroke. 

With the hotmail - outlook problems I need to export all my contacts out of hotmail to another email provided. Can someone plz tell me how do you export all your contacts out of hotmail.com or this new hotmail.com/outlook? Thx
