After Transfer of data to a new comp., old admin name doesn't match new adm

I'm having issues with Word for Mac since I installed Fusion. I am trying to uninstall Word for Mac but I get the message: "You do not have permission. Log into the same Mac OS user Acct that you used to Install office and try again".
I recently bought a new MacPro to replace my G5 and had the Apple store transfer data from my old mac to my new one.
Apparently I used a different variation of my name on my old G5 when I installed Word for Mac than I did on my new mac, and the old name transfer with the date. But I have no idea how to log into the old account, or how to make an account for the old name not knowing the old name.
any suggestions, or work arounds for uninstalling Word for Mac?
The problem with Word,is that the menu and tool bar comes up, but I can't open any documents.
Thanks
Bill

had to wipe and reload

  • I have a mid year 2007 24 inch iMac and will be purchasing a new 27 inch Retina iMac, what is the easiest way to transfer the data and files from my old machine to the new one?

    I have a mid year 2007 24 inch iMac and will be purchasing a new 27 inch Retina iMac, what is the easiest way to transfer the data and files from my old machine to the new one?

    Following up on this thread,
    I have a new iMac on the way and my current is from 2008, never had a problem but I am sure there are internal issues that I would prefer not to transfer.
    I have no issues other then the slowness in certain programs and that is the main reason to buy a new one.
    Programs like numbers and pages seem to take a longer time to open after I update to Yosemite.
    I only use 272GB of 500 GB, my memory is 4GB and I am upgrading to 8Gb and bought the 4.0 processor.
    Question:
    Is there a way to manually transfer items or would that be a waste of time in that if there are issues they could be anywhere and would transfer anyway?

  • I just bought a new Mac and I want to transfer some data (not all) from my old Mac.  Basically, I want to move my itunes library, iphoto library, and a few documents.  I have not even turned on my new Mac yet.  Is the best way by an external hard drive?

    If both have Firewire ports then you can accomplish your goal by using Target Disk Mode. If this is not possible then you can do using an external drive or if you have a local network connect both to your network and use filesharing between the two computers.

    And now that my contract has expired, I have some options.  Last weekend, I called Verizon again threatening to leave.  The representative offered the same $75 rebate that was offered to me 6 months earlier.  I even offered up one of my device upgrades in place of a network extender, but that deal was knocked down.  And so now I’m left with the option to make a public spectacle out of this scenario and hope Verizon takes notice.  Failing that, I’ll be forced to leave Verizon behind.
    I don't understand. If having service in your home IS important to you and you already know Verizon's policy, why have you not instead started to search for carriers which cover your home? It seems a pretty easy decision to me, at least.

  • I recently downloaded the new iTunes version. Why doesn't my new uploaded music appear in the "My Music" playlist?

    I recently downloaded the new iTunes version. Why doesn't my new uploaded music appear in the top of the "Music" playlist?

    First see if Finder Preferences has the box checked for... show CD, DVD, iPods checked.
    Sometimes dirty DVDs won't read, mine is ery particular about smudges and scratches.
    Try a SMC Reset:

    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and ALL peripherals.
    Wait 15 seconds.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Wait another 5 seconds and press the power button to turn on the computer.
    It is the 5 second timing that initiates the reset.

  • HT1660 I I had to get my ipad2 replaced as cracked. Bought replacement in apple shop but when I got home the transfer of data that assistant did from old iPad to new was not available. How can I get this back

    Can someone hep I've lost all music and photos from m ipad2 after it was replaced. Previous iPad2 dropped and cracked so had to buy new one.  I also tried to sync my iPod to my computer as had photos and music there but keep getting message that my ipos all be erased as I have another account which I don't. Anyone help.

    If your old iPad had been Synced with your iTunes, it would have created a Backup.
    Connect your device, right click iPad under "Devices" on iTunes left Pane and select "Restore from Backup...."
    Then select the last backup from your old iPad (determine from Date n Time)

  • Pivot table data source keeps referring to old file name

    Hi,
    I am using Excel 2013 on Windows 8
    I create a table, and insert a pivot table that use this table as data source
    I close the excel and rename the file from "myfile.xlsx" to "newfile.xlsx, and then open it again
    When trying to refresh my Pivot Table, I get the following Error:
    "We couldn't get the data from 'Table1' in the workbook 'C:\myfile.xlsx' Open this workbook in Excel and try again."
    i.e. it is still looking for table using the old file name.
    I need to update the file every week, so having to manually go back and change source file name for every pivot is very time consuming and painful for me :-(
    Please investigate and advise how to fix this ?  

    Hi,
    Based on my tested in my environment (Window 8.1 & Excel 2013), the error message pop up when a pivot table using an external data source. If you use the table as external data source, pivot table uses OLEDB to connect it, it'll refresh failed after
    you changed the file name. It's by design.
    Then, we may try the two workaround to avoid it:
    1) Keep the data source table and pivot table in the same file.
    2) Add the table to a connection, steps:
    Click Data tab>Connection> Add> Browse more> Choose the file.
    Please try to change in new file in property before you refresh the Pivot table.

    If it is an Acrobat subscription you could easily register the same product on your new PC with your credentials ,i.e Adobe id and password.

  • SharePoint App Top Navigation doesn't match new Office 365 Top Navigation

    I am developing a SharePoint App for Office 365/SharePoint online and have noticed that my SharePoint App (created via Visual Studio) has a different top navigation than the host site, as SharePoint/Office 365 has a new top navigation. How can I get my SharePoint
    App to match the new Navigation in use everywhere else? Images are as follows:

    Hi,
    Per my understanding, you might want to display the same suite bar in both SharePoint site and App.
    After the last update of Office 365, the style of the suite bar is different between SharePoint site and App, as well as the HTML structure:
    SharePoint site:
    App:
    As a workaround, I would suggest you create custom “suite bar” with client site technology to replace the default suite bar in App.

  • A new IMac, old xp pc, Linksys and a new Hp All in one...now what?

    Someone please point me in the right direction. I need to share all the functions of the HP all in one, printing and scanning with my new mac and old xp PC. Sharing files will be nice as well. At this point all will be hardwired. I may add a PC notebook wirelessly in the future. The Imac and the pc are hardwired to the router ( Linksys WRT54G Version 2). At this point I can access the internet fine. The printer HP CM1312nfi MFP is still in the box.
    What do I do next. My router is out of warrantee and Linksys will not help. Apple care tells me to call Linksys and HP says the same.
    I need a simple step by step guide that I can understand. I have been searching the internet for days and I simply give up?
    Please help.
    Thanks in advance!

  • Transfer of albums from old version of photoshop to a newer

    I have used version 4.0 of Photoshop elements previously. I have saved a copy of my old hard disk, including the installation of Photoshop 4.0, on an external hard disk drive. I would like to transfer my albums, tags etc from my old version of Photoshop to my new Photoshop 9.0 on my new computer. How can I do that? Photshop 9.0 was pre-installed on my new computer before delivery to me.

      The normal method is to use the back-up and restore facility built into Elements. That is different to making a copy of everything. However the PSE4 database is different to the PSE9 database. If your old computer is still working it will probably be easier to install a copy of PSE9; then convert the old catalog to the PSE9 version. Then make a PSE9 back-up and use the TLY file within it to restore everything on to the new computer.
