10.10.3 update: Word

I updated to 10.10.3 today. Now all my Word documents only open into a 3x3" square, and I cannot expand it. How can I fix?

Try un-installing, then re-installing.

  • Updating word 2004 on 10.4.11 system

    Does anyone know if it is ok to update Word vrsn. 11.2 directly to
    latest Word vrsn. 11.5.3 ?
    I thought I saw someone say you should insert an intervening update
    step.
    My mac system is vrsn. 10.4.11.
    Thanks for any advice.

    I seem to remember that when I first discovered I had to keep updating my own Office 2004, attempts to jump to the latest failed: I had to install each succeeding update from where I was, in turn one at a time up to the latest. I suppose you should open Microsoft Autoupdate in your Applications folder and click on manual update.

  • Updating Word templates in Content Types - changes not appearing automatically

    Hello
    I have a SharePoint site where I have existing content types all with MS Word templates assigned to them.  I wish to change the Word template so it looks different.
    I have saved my Word template as a .dot file and have edited my content type so it points to the updated template in the 'Advanced' area of the content type properties.  When I look at my template via the 'Edit Template' in the 'advanced' area of the
    content type it is fine (as it is when I look at the template file via explorer view) but when I create a new document based on the content type it is referring to the old template.  Furthermore, I have renamed some of the content type names but they
    have not updated either.
    Any ideas?  Is there a background process that runs to help with this?

    Sorry, just re-visited this and i think i might have missed an obvious answer.
    SharePoint tries to protect you from yourself.
    That measn that it will not, in some cases, push changes down to lists. For example if you were to delete a column at the site level which is also in place on lists SharePoint won't delete it from the lists.
    I'll bet that If you look at the content type at the library level it's showing the old details still.

  • Had issue with Powerpoint, so yesterday updated Word for Mac 2011 to v. 14.41 - now lots of functionality missing from Word as well as Powerpoint. Any suggestions welcome.

    Hi - Word for Mac 2011 has been working fine. Yesterday suddenly couldn't edit into Powerpoint pptx from a PC (something I used to be be able to do). Got the latest update for Word for Mac 2011, so now running v. 14.4.1 on my iMac, which operates under OS X 10.8.5. Word is now playing up - and I seem to have lost functionality - bullets and numbered lists, 'find' function and more besides broken. I'm swamped with work that I need to do in Word and Powerpoint and welcome any ideas.

    Try an Office alternative.  It sounds like you have some data corruption.  Is your data backed up?

  • Following update Word:mac window won't enlarge/Restore button on Time machine not active

    I have found two issues following automatic installation of the Security Update 2014-005 that took place last night.
    The first is when I open Word:mac my window is super-small (2"x2") and will not enlarge using the manual "pull" although the arrows do appear when my mouse touches the edge of the window.
    When I could not discover a way to correct this, I decided to restore from my Time Machine backups, but my Time Machine Back-ups won't all me to restore. I can see the back-ups are there but the option to Restore is not active- I can select the various back-ups and only the Cancel option is active.
    Since it seems I cannot go back I may try to upgrade the OS to Yosemite to see if that helps.
    Help is appreciated.

    So the issue with Word:mac was a glitch that resolved by changing, then reverting, screen resolution options.

    And apparently I can't restore from a back-up following a security update. This would have to be done using the recovery mode since firmware was updated.
    Good enough.

  • Update Word and now can't even login! Blue Screen and returns to login!

    Hi,
    I'm new to Macs and recently put Word onto it. Went to use it a couple of days ago and it said that it had a critical update for Word. So I clicked yes to update.
    Next thing...it all froze!
    Then took me to login screen. Initially I just thought..."Oh it's restarted after update." But when I logged in it accepted password...went to a blue screen and came back to the login.
    Now I can't get into my mac!
    Please help...what do I do!!???

    There are a couple possibilities. Start out by turning the computer on while holding down the 'Shift' key until you see the grey Apple. This is a safe boot and you can read more about it here. If the computer boots up to the login screen and you can log into your account the problem may be solved. The failed Word update may simply have led to a scrambled cache file that kept the computer from booting.
    The other possibility I'd consider is that the update failed due to a disk drive error. If the safe boot doesn't work get out your System disc and restart your computer with it. (Start the computer, hold the 'C' key and insert the System Restore disc. Once it has booted, move to the Utilties menu and select Disk Utility. Perform a repair and if it reports the drive isn't repairable you'll know that's the problem - and we can talk about what to do next.

  • HT4623 "Software update" (words)don't appear when I press settings/general.should appear below "about"on my iPad 2 version4.3.5(8l.1) tenable me to update to ios6 any help appreciated

    In "settings/general" the words SOFTWARE UPDATE don,t appear below ABOUT or anywhere under GENERAL to enable me to update to ios6 . Any help appreciated.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Before downloading latest number update, words/numbers were auto memorised and suggested as soon as you started  to type a word or number. This no longer happens. How do i switch this facility back on? Thanks

    Before downloading the latest update I was able to insert part of the word or number and a suggestion was automatically created if I had used that word before. This no longer happens. How do I reinstate this preference?

    Hi Nikor,
    Instead of waiting for the feature to be re-introduced or going back to the old version, why not try out an enhanced feature of Numbers 3 that is better than "auto-complete" in many situations where you frequently enter repeating values in a column and don't want to type the same text over and over again?
    Try formatting the cells in the column with frequently repeating values as Pop-Up Menu.
    In many situations, particularly if you want to avoid typos creeping in and messing up your data, Pop-Up Menu has clear advantages over "autocomplete." It is much enhanced over what it was in Numbers 2.3, and is easy to set up:
    Select the whole column or range before formatting as Pop-Up Menu and your existing values in that column or range will pre-populate a menu automatically:
    Then you can remove the values you don't want in the list, such as the column header (and possibly some previous spelling errors too!):
    And after this easy one-time setup all you have to do thereafter is to choose from the pop-up list when you add rows:
    See this post for more details on how this handy feature has been enhanced in Numbers 3.0.
    In Numbers 3.0 there is no keyboard shortcut to activate the menu such as hitting the spacebar in the old Numbers (hope they'll add one in upcoming versions) but the Pop-Up Menu approach, unlike auto-complete, eliminates spelling inconsistencies or lack of capitalization when there should be capitalization, etc.
    And should you ever want to take your Numbers with you and do data entry on an iPad or iPhone, in a touch interface pop-ups are much more efficient than typing the first few letters of items. You can scroll with ease through a list of dozens of items to make a pick.
    See this thread for this and other workarounds for Numbers 3.0.

  • After December 2014 security updates, Word 2010 won't let me edit forms any longer

    I just installed the December 2014 security udpates. Today, when I open the timesheet form I use every week to record time, Word won't let me edit the form fields in the document. I can select them (sometimes) and it even occasionally lets me resize them,
    but I can't type into the free form text fields any longer. I even tried unprotecting the document, but Word won't let me do that either, although I suppose it is possible I forgot the password. But none of the standard ones I use will unlock the form I created.
    I'm not using XML form fields; I'm using the legacy text form field. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
    Thanks,
    Jack

  • Illustrator won't start after MS Word Update

    I believe MS Word is the culprit here but I'm not absolutely for sure. I know I updated Word (Office 2004) the other day. Today I tried to open Illustrator CS2 and it freezes. I trashed my Illustrator application folder and reinstalled but it still doesn't work. Was thinking about uninstalling MS Word but is it enough to just trash the entire Office Application folder or do I need to remove something else as well? Or maybe I'm completely wrong on this.
    I also checked and repaired permissions and verified the disc but it was fine.

    Well you have a conflict and if you tell us about plug ins free fonts you installed and other software you have installed we might be able to help but as describe the way you are going about this I have a feeling you are either doing more then you should be or are not doing everything in order, at least it seems that way to me.
    What I think that would be the better way to go about this is for you to do an archival reinstall of the system, good thing to do once in a while any way.
    BTW removing the fonts won't clear the font cache so if you remove the fonts you clean the font cache out then trash the Settings folder and .plist of course without Illustrator running and for safety sake restart the computer then try to launch Illustrator of course you have to uninstall Suitcase you cannot run Suitcase with Illustrator and you cannot have it installed.
    Disabling it means nothing.
    Those are your options.
    Let me ask you something and do not get offended r you a control person?
    If so let someone else handle this for you.
    You will be happier.
    Do you still have suitcase installed? It has to be uninstalled
    Hi Wade,
    Not sure what you mean by control person but it is my personal computer at home. I only ever use Suitcase to handle my font's, I never add them to the System Fonts or through Fontbook. That said, I removed Suitcase yesterday and I think I got rid of all it's various attachments like prefs, plsts or whatever. At least I hope so. I also removed Office 2004 and Illustrator has been removed with all its attachments, twice. I've also used a program called FontNuke to clear the Font cache.
    I thought about reformatting the HD but wanted to see if I could find a solution before putting up the white flag. I agree, formatting is good once in a while.

  • How to get Character Viewer to stay visible (esp. in Word for Mac)?

    I'm asking this on behalf of a friend who has a 2013 13-inch (non-retina) MackBook Pro and uses it with an Apple Cinema Display. Since the upgrade to Mavericks the behaviour of the Character Viewer has changed, where it no longer 'sticks' (stays both active and on top) as a visible window when you switch applications: now it needs to be called up from within each application, and will be visible when working with that app.
    He needs the Character Viewer open all the time and this change is inconvenient (he draws special characters from it constantly). But the main problem is that he mostly works in MS Word for Mac and as far as I can tell Microsoft have not updated Word to respect the behaviour Mavericks intends for Character Viewer: to stay visible while working. Instead, the Character Viewer window randomly closes. So, while hoping for an update from MS (but not holding breath since they provide their own inferior version of a glyph viewer in Word)) I have two questions:
    1. Can anyone suggest a way, perhaps using Applescript or Automator (which I don't know how to use), to make the Character Viewer always stay open and visible while using any application? This would be the preferable solution, in effect restoring the behaviour seen before Mavericks.
    Or
    2. Can someone give us some guidance on how to make a custom keyboard shortcut in Word for Mac that we could assign to bring up the (OSX) Character Viewer, since the usual system shortcut for that (control-command-space) is not respected in Word. Or alternatively, an Applescript or Automator solution for this that would be available from within Word?
    Thanks!

    Did you try:
    ->System Preferences->Keyboard and check [ ] Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in menu bar
    It closes when I switch desktops with spaces or open another App, but it displays when I go back to the Word window

  • Converting Word to pdf -  Text in "Pictures" corrupted

    When I convert a Word (ver 10 SP3) document with a graphic "picture" which contains both graphics and text to .pdf format with Acrobat 9 Pro the graphics convert fine but the text in the picture becomes very large and moves outside of the picture. The same problem occurred when I had Acrobat 5 on my system.
    A colleague with Acrobat 9 Pro converted one of my .doc files and it converted fine on his system. He feels that something is wrong with the PDF driver, Word, or Acrobat. Where do I start tracing down this problem?
    I can post the source and resulting .pdf files, but I don't know how to do that in this forum.

    I am not sure which version of WORD is ver 10. You may want to update WORD. Word does have some problems along this line. The new DOCX version even does some games with graphics that deletes the font in vector graphics apparently.

  • Very slow Word file import on RoboHelp HTML 8

    Hello,
    I am currently using RoboHelp HTML 8.0.2 on Vista 64-bit and when I import Word files (both .doc and .docx) it takes a really long time to complete (10-15 minutes for a 200pg/50topic/10MB Word file). Is this normal? At the end of the process it says "Updating Word file..." on the progress bar, and hangs up here for ~10 minutes. What exactly happens during this stage?
    The Word file has a bunch of pictures and equations in it, was made using Word 2007, and is a pretty normal file otherwise.
    Let me know if you guys need more information.
    Andy

    That is a pretty big document but it does still seem quite a time. You don't say what happens if you import smaller docs into a test project. Is the doc local?
