When i press next another box opens saying 
"we're sorry something went wrong and we cant do this for you right now. Please try again later"

When i click on help it says 
"help isnt working but you can still go to office.com to get the latest and greatest articles etc etc.."

It was installed by a worker in Soundstore on the 11/11/13 and was working perfectly until today. I tried to contact Soundstore but they have not got back to me. I really need word to do assignments for college and would hugely appreciate a speedy reply. Also this happens with excel, powerpoint etc.

Hi Deirdre,

Step 2:

 

Run the Fix it from the following article to remove all traces of Office on the system.

Once the Fix it completes removing all traces of Office, then you may re-install Office 365 and verify the results.
