My organization uses Office 365 and I have files stored on SkyDrive Pro and a few Sharepoint Sites. I prefer to use the SkyDrive web interface since document connection does not work consistently for me. When I reach the file I'd like to edit on the website I click the file and then click "Edit". However, the appropriate Office 2011 app on my Mac does not open. Rather, a copy of the file stored on SkyDrive (or the share point site) downloads to my downloads folder.
However, if I click "View in Browser" and then on the subsequent page click "Edit" and then "Edit in Word", the document opens in Word 2011 on my mac. This issue is consistent with all office documents on my Skydrive Pro and sharepoint sites.
I am using Mac OS X Mavericks with Safari 7.0.1
