How To Add The Data Analysis Tool Pack For Excel For Mac

Tool

Solver was added to Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 in Service Pack 1. You can download and install Office for Mac 2011’s Service Pack 1 by clicking on the link below:

Go to the Tools menu, select 'Add-ins' Check 'Solver Add-in' and 'Analysis ToolPak' then click OK Select the 'Data' tab, then select 'Solver' or 'Data Analysis'. Ii) A strange computer behavior we've seen is that the Excel 'Data Analysis' simply disappears from the 'Tools' menu. If this happens, go to step 1 and start again. At step 3, uninstall (uncheck) the Analysis Tool Pak. In the Add-Ins window, place a checkmark in the “Analysis ToolPak” and the “Solver Add-in” and then click OK 7. Click on the Data tab, and the Data Analysis and Solver Add-Ins will be available in the Analysis section.

Excel for Mac Prior to 2010

If your version is earlier than 2011, check to see if the command, Data Analysis, is available on the Tools menu in Excel.

On the Tools menu, click Add-Ins.

Select the Analysis ToolPak check box, and then click OK.

Note: If the Analysis ToolPak check box is not listed in the Add-Ins dialog box, you must use the Value Pack Installer to install the Analysis ToolPak. For more information about how to install Value Pack components,
