    Announcement: Welcome to the updated Office forum

    Effective September 10th, Office, Office for Mac*, and Office 365 for business* forums are consolidated into a new, single Office forum category. We are excited for this change to further simplify community support for all Office customers, regardless of version or subscription method. Besides the forums consolidation the forum topics within the Office category were organized first by services, applications, and key topics, next by platform or device, and finally by Office version.

    Want more information on these changes? Check out this video, review the FAQ, or join the conversation in the Community Participation Center forum.

    We look forward to your Office questions, participation, and expertise in this new forum. 

    *Forum topics available in limited languages.

Downgrade from Office 365 2016 to Office 365 2013?

BillDemma asked on

Since I cannot connect Outlook 2016 to an 2007 MS Exchange server, how do I download the Office 365 2013 version once I uninstall the 2016 version?  The website only gives an option for the 2016 version.

Please help!!!

Thanks,

Bill

Hi,

As far as I know, you can only download the current version. Your admin can provide your access to the next version (I have this for instance) that Microsoft is developing, but reverting back to old versions is not possible.

That said, there might be a way around this using the Office Deployment Tool. Check this out and see if you can use the office deployment tool: www.thebitguru.com/.../404-How to download offline Office 2013 Pro Plus installer from Office 365

Hi Bill,

It is a known issue that Outlook 2016 can’t connect to Exchange 2007 in a hybrid scenario. Thanks for your understanding. For rolling back to Office 2013, please follow the steps below:

1.Use the Fix it tool in this page to remove Office 2016, and then restart the computer.
2.Install Office 2013 via the URLs below:
For Office 365 Business or Office 365 Business Premium:
32-bit, English:
c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/.../download.aspx
64-bit, English:
c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/.../download.aspx

For Office 365 Enterprise E3 or Office 365 ProPlus:
32-bit, English:
c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/.../download.aspx  
64-bit, English:
c2rsetup.officeapps.live.com/.../download.aspx

Note: Please use Method 2 in this article to prevent Office 2013 from updating to Office 2016 directly from the Internet.

Best regards,
Tim

Hi Tim,

I am also in the same boat as the OP. My email account uses MS Exchange 2007 server. I am using Office 365 Home Premium. Can you post a link to that version?

Thanks,

Justin
