Compatibility problem copying between Microsoft Office, Clipboard, Internet
I would really appreciate your help figuring out a problem:
I have run Microsoft Office 2004 on my iBook G4 for the past 5 years. Just recently, whenever I attempt to copy anything from Word, it comes up in the clipboard and the destination in an email body (I use gmail) as 'Ministry of Interior' or 'Version:1.0 StartHTML:0000000224 EndHTML:0000002914 StartFragment:0000002726 EndFragment:0000002878 SourceURL:file://localhost/Users/HalHinkle/Desktop/Est%20-%20christina%20black%2016b%20Ele ctric%20Ave%20SW9%208JR.doc Ministry of Interior' no matter what I do. I have tried clearing the clipboard several times, but that has not solved the problem.
This problem seems to be limited to copying outside of a Microsoft office programme to another application, like both my Firefox and Safari internet browsers. Interestingly, within a Microsoft Office programme (I have tried both Word and Excel) I can copy and paste fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much.
Hi csblack86, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I think you've got a Macro Virus along these lines myself...
Word Virus on Mac – W97M.Thus.gen-2...

1. I just opened up Word (and a new, blank document if it doesn’t open automatically).
2. The go to “Tools -> Macros -> Visual Basic Editor”
3. On the Left is a box called “Projects”. The default selection is the blank document that you have open. Above that will be a cascading menu that will say “Normal”. (See the picture)
4. Once you click on “ThisDocument” a bunch of code will show up in the main window. Just select it all (Apple+A) and then delete it. All of it. Don’t spare a single character.
5. Save the changes (Apple+S, or select “Save Normal” under the File Menu)
6. Quit the editor (Apple+Q, or “Close and Return to Microsoft Word” under the Word Menu)
7. Close Word.
That is it! You are all done!!

As mentioned in ths article below, run for Office 365 products on to a Remote Desktop Session Host server is not supported. You can install Office products for Office 365 to a virtual desktop, but the virtual desktop must be assigned to a single user.

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.
Both these situations have cropped up on my MacBook Pro since the last update.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers
BobThe 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.

There are differences between the two version of Office. If you need to be exactly like the Windows version, you will have to run Windows on your Mac.

Personalize your copy of Microsoft Office %username%
Hi gang,
I'm building an image using the MDT 2013 with Windows 8.1 and "Office Pro plus 2013" and Office 2013 doesn't seems to be recognizing the variable %username% to add the username "Personalize your copy of Microsoft Office "
what it shows now it's User name : %username%
I'm also using the OCT to customize the Office 2013 MSP file.
This used to work with "Office 2007" on "windows 7".

Duplicate copy of microsoft office?
I saw 2 copy of microsoft office for mac
microsoft office 2004 (482MB)
Can i delete this:
office 2004 for mac test drive (322MB)
It's because i am always prompted to buy as the trial version has expired?
ThanksHello again, Don't you just love pre-installed demos??? Reminds me of PC's. Please don't shoot the messenger...I did some searching and read many forums about removing testdrive after you installed the real deal....one conclusion.....
Your pretty much HOSED!!!!
You need to deleted both and re-install the one you bought. Don't worry so much from what I have read, you will not lose any documents. If you use Entourage as your Mail client you might want to copy the "Microsoft Users Data" folder in your Documents file to disc or external..all your addresses, calender..etc. Other than that any custom templates or such will be lost too if not copied to another disc or computer.

Significant delay between Microsoft Office Protocol Discovery OPTIONS requests
When users in our network try to download MS Office document from server (Tomcat and HTTPD as a proxy) IE10 hangs for some time (from 10s to 1min) and then opens document. Previous versions of IE (6, 7, 8) work without any issues. We do have our server
configured to return 405 for PROPFIND and OPTIONS requests. We see that browser hangs between OPTIONS requests in Wireshark. What may be the cause of such problems? Does IE10 has some properties to disable such requests? Can we set some header on back-end
to clearly tell IE that our server is not WebDav service?Hello,
in addition to my question here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/eb068660-5ded-411e-bfc1-6f18ba7bc585/office-prompts-for-windows-login-when-im-trying-to-save-edited-document?forum=officeitproprevious
Can someone tell my, how does the Microsoft Office Single Sign on work ?
From what i understand, ms office opens the document (when through IE) and tries to create a webdav connection.
I have tried to disable the webdav on apache.
But the entire webserver is mod_auth_kerb "protected".
And in the access-log, i can see this:
IP, DATETIME, [email protected] document....
But also: IP, DATETIME - document <--- None authenticated user... Why does microsoft not use the current user?
I have tried to ssl enable the website, which i read in this thread: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2123563
But Microsoft Office stills act as anonymous user.

Problems after downloading microsoft office
I tried to download microsoft office - no luck. created a 'test' account and download successful. had nothing but problems since. tried uninstalling and clearly a poor choice. so not tech savy. now I can't open safari more than once w/o restarting and word, excel, etc. is gone. Any ideas?
It would help if I had a little more information here.
had nothing but problems since.
What problems?
tried uninstalling
I'm assuming you tried uninstalling Office. Maybe that's why they're gone?
So what happens with Safari that you have to restart? Does it completely crash and become unresponsive, or does it just get slow?
If you are indeed running 10.7.5, you are in the wrong forum, BTW. You might have more luck in the right forum.
How much RAM do you have?

Issues between Microsoft Office:mac 2004 (Student) and Korean Language
I use Microsoft Office:mac 2004 student edition on my iMac. For a Korean class I'm taking I type in Korean on Microsoft Word for Mac 2004 (student edition) and as to be expected Word indecates the spelling is wrong. I have tried to change the proofing setting so Word will Proof in Korean but I have been unsucessful. What can I do (or get or download) to get Word for Mac to proof Korean? If you think you may be able to help me but you find his message to be somewhat hard to understand please email me at [email protected] and I will to explain my issue more clearly.
Best ask in the newsgroups which MS runs for its products:
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups
Are you sure the stuff you want exists? My info is that Office 2004 comes with proofing tools for English, French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Norwegian, German, Danish, Swedish, Portuguese, Finnish, and Dutch. No Korean or Chinese. -

Problems copying between Flash CS5.5 and TextEdit in OSX Lion
This is a wierd one but it's cost me a ton of time...
When running Flash CS5.5 on OSX Lion (vs. 10.7.4) if I copy text from Flash and then paste it into a TextEdit Document it ALWAYS results in slowing down Flash to the point where it is basically unusable. The ONLY solution is to restart the whole system. (I use TextEdit to document my work, so I go back and forth between the two constantly).
Specifically, the copied text must be from a Instance Name field or a Movie Clip name field. (I've copied text out of a classic text field without problem).
When I go to paste the text into a TextEdit document there is a abnormal lag of a few seconds, but the text does get pasted, and TextEdit continues to function normally.
However, when I then return to Flash, it is noticable slower. Every click takes several seconds to register. For example, when opening a movie clip in the library, after double clicking the MC after a few seconds the MC will be highlighted, after several more seconds the timeline will display for that MC, afer several more seconds the stage will finally display the cotents of the MC. The larger the file, the longer the delays.
Restarting Flash makes no difference. Trashing Prefs makes no difference. However restarting the entire system does fix the problem.
I also reinstalled Flash, which also fixed the problem, but I was able to cause the problem to occur again.
I may pass this along to Apple also.
Thanks for any insights!Thanks! (Didn't understand what you meant before).
Activity Monitor showed that pasting the text in TextEdit caused fontd to jump up to near 100% whenever I tried to interact with Flash. fontworker and helpd also hit near 100% for a few moments, but it was mostly fontd. Killing fontd in Activity Monitor seemed to return everything to normal (but I'm not sure what else is affected by doing that). I am also, then, unable to make the bug occur again.
So it appears to be the os. Strange that this only seems to affect Flash, though.
Thanks again (Learned something!) -
Compatibiity issues between Microsoft Office 2013 and Epsom Workforce 1100 Wide Format Printer
I just purchased a new Pavilion 23 HP computer with Windows 8 Operating System and Office 2013. I bought an Epson Workforce 1100 Wide Format printer several years ago. Upon installing it on my new computer, I noticed it was for operating systems from 2000
to 7 and did not include Windows 8. I downloaded the recommended driver for Windows 8. My computer recognizes the printer and will print pictures, web-articles, etc. but will not print any text from any of the Office 2013 documents. Can you help me?Hi,
I have a couple of questions about the issue:
1. Did the print task show in the status bar when you use Office2013 to print?
2. Did you try to print by using the Notepad?
3. Did you get some error messages?
If we cloud not print from the Notepad, it seems a
compatibility issues between Windows8 and print driver. I recommend you post the issue to Windows 8 forum or connect Epson support.
Then,we also cloud upgrade all the latest Windows 8 and Office 2013 patches to test.

Problems yoga 3 with microsoft office and open office
Have a problem with running microsoft office and open office on the yoga 3. Both programms are unstable and some calculation sheets in Excel don't even open, while they run perfect on my old HP notebook and the Asus Zenbook of my friend. Does anyone has an idea what could be wrong here?
Latest Yoga 3 ships with Win 8.1
Exactly, what error are you getting. Could you get a screenshot?
Are other/normal excel files working fine?
Does your file have macros or just complex formulas?
Could you create a new excel, copy your data into it and try to work with that?
Current System - Lenovo Y510P, GT755M SLI, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD + 24GB SSD
