Save a file in Office for Mac

Office allows you to save files in online folders provided by OneDrive and SharePoint. If you have accounts that give you access to these services, you can save and access files stored on these services much like files stored on your computer.

SharePoint services and OneDrive for work or school are typically offered by an employer or organization, but you can use OneDrive on your own. For more information about these services, see the related topics in See Also.

To save a file to an online location other than the default folder, use Save as. You can save files from Word, Excel, or PowerPoint directly to folders on OneDrive and SharePoint services.

1. On the File menu, click Save as, or press + Shift + S.

2. If the dialog box shows a folder on your computer rather than on an online service, click Online Locations.

   

   If you see the On My Mac button, the dialog box is currently displaying an online location.

3. Navigate to the folder where you want to save your file.

   You might need to click the name of a service on the left before you can access the folder you want. If you do not see the service that you need to access, click the plus sign to add a service.

   

4. If you want to create a new folder in the folder that you are currently viewing, click New Folder, and then enter a name for the folder.

5. In the Save As box, enter a different file name if you want.

6. Click Save.
