After upgrading to Mavericks, Microsoft Office works fine, but Word won't hide

I'll be working in Word, hit command+H and Word just goes to the background. I try selecting it in the Word menu, same thing. Anyone got any ideas? I have the latest version--just checked for updates and there are none available (Word 2011).

Hello sharlegit
Try creating a new network location and test to see if the same thing happens of certain websites not working.

After updating to mavericks microsoft office doesnt work !

Just realised after updating OS to mavericks my microsoft office 2011 stopped working properly. Lets see:. powerpoint issues
1. No background colour visualy can see on the slides on the left corner
2. Powerpoint quits unexpectidely
3. Slides show doesnt work, quits or black screen appears
4. After editing sand saving powerpoint don't save any changes
Is anyone have solution? or expierencing the same issues, please advise.
Still working on microsoft office it closes as well unexpectidely.
Possible it is no worth upgrade to mavericks as is really annoying when i need to work with office.

My issue is now fixed.
Here's what I did. (I don't know which part actually fixed it, though.)
- made sure that Excel was not running in the background (it wasn't)
- deleted the preferences in ~/Library/Preferences for Microsoft Office
- deleted the preferences in /Library/Preferences for Microsoft Office
- rebooted
- re-started Excel: it started with a screen saying "Your copy of Microsoft Office is now authorized."
- in Excel, went under "Help" and chose "Check Updates"; this found a small update, which I applied
- in Excel, did Check Updates again which then found a much bigger update, which I too applied
- checked updates again to be told it was up to date
From there it seemed to work as it should. Hopefully, this will help someone in the same situation.

HELP- After installing OSX Maverick, Microsoft Office is having problems!

I recently updated my computer to the new opperating system OSX Maverick. After doing so when I tried to open microsoft word it asked me to sign into my microsoft account to re-initiate it. Ive tried many different times, on many different days each time with the same error message "we could not reach your account, please check your internet connection and try again later". I have tried re-starting my computer along with many other things, I have also gone online and signed into my microsoft account, therefore I know the information I used to attempt to log in is correct. Is this a possible compatibility problem between Maverick and Office or is it simply a problem with Microsoft at this time. I have the Mac 2011 home office 365 currectly installed on my computer.

It must be the Office 365 link acting up. You might want to try disabling it if Office 2011 is your main tool.

I did a time machine backup before upgrading to mavericks. can I restore the mac to exactly the way it was before I upgraded to mavericks using that time machine backup?
Thanks

Do you have the same problem when booting up in Safe Boot?

ITunes working fine but it won't detect my ipod or upgrade firmware

I have a PowerBook G4, running the latest version of osx 10.4 and a 60 gig, 5G ipod. I was prompted over the weekend to install the new quicktime and the new itunes which I did. Both are working fine. I have no problem listening to music or viewing movies or whatever.
Except, the ipod is not being detected by itunes 7.0. I checked the ipod itself and it has the 1.1.2 version of the ipod firmware. I have done everything I can think to do including the first 4 Rs (Reset your iPod, Retry with a different USB port, Restart your computer, Reinstall iPod and iTunes software). I am not willing to try "Restore your iPod" because if that does not work I will have a blank iPod and I am about to travel for a few days and I want to have music on it when I leave.
I suppose the problem might be something about getting my ipod's firmware updated to 1.2 so that it can then be detected but the 1.2 update can only be done through iTunes 7.0. Worse, there does not seem to be any button I can push to FORCE iTunes to update the ipod firmware. This seems very chicken-eggish.
I don't actually see many folks have THIS problem. The closest is people who can't do much with the iPod but can at least see it in "source" within iTunes. I don't even see a "source" list along the left-hand side of iTunes 7.0 (I just see LIBRARY, STORE and PLAYLISTS).
Any thoughts on how I might resolve this?
PS, I have two ipod cables and tried both and tried them on each of the two USB ports on my powerbook. That plus the fact that I have never had a problem with either the ports or the cables before leads me to believe this is not the problem.

After several weeks of not finding answers here or elsewhere on the web - and after waiting for an iTunes 7.0.1 and getting it - I "gave up" and went to the Apple Store last night.
The Genius bar took my ipod, plugged it in to a mac, reached under the counter and handed me what they said was a NEW ipod (it was in a generic brown box with no accessories, cables, etc). I did not like that solution for two reasons. First, all of my family photos and videos were on my iPod and I did not like the idea that maybe those photos would turn up on the web someday. Second, it was a gift and had a personalized engraving on the back. When I pressed them on what they thought was wrong with my iPod they said it was not worth the time to figure out and they would just give me another one. Or I could ship in to Apple Support and they would send me a new one WITH the same engraving in a couple of weeks. I took the "new" iPod.
And, sure enough, when I connected it to my powerbook it was detected, the firmware was updated and iTunes synced all my music, photos and videos (and games).
The Genius bar people seems pretty sure that the problem was hardware (the port where you connected the USB cable at the bottom of the device). When I pointed out that it had been working fine right up until the day I upgraded to iTunes 7.0 and that it had not worked since they did not seem terribly interested.
So, my problem is "solved" in that I have a working iPod sans engraving.

I just upgraded to firefox 6 and now cannot connect to the internet. IE still works fine but firefox won't connect. Any suggestions on how to get the new firefox to connect to the internet?

I just upgraded to ff 6.0.1 via an automatic push. Since then, ff hasnt been able to connect to the internet. Error message:
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.
IE has no trouble connecting to the internet.

After upgrading, your firewall may not be recognizing the new Firefox version and is not allowing it access to the internet. On your firewall progam's allowed applications list, remove Firefox, then re-start Firefox, try going to a website, your firewall will detect the new version of Firefox, then give the permissions needed for Firefox to have internet access.

I download the 3.2 update from 3.1, but it does not install. I am using system 7 with an iMac quad core, which works fine, but it won't update.I don't know what to do

I can't upgrade from 3.1 to 3.2 Bootcamp, despite multiple attempts to download. it seems to download but the upgrade does not install and I don't know where to look to make it install. Any suggestions?

You are in Windows; you already have inserted your OS X DVD and run SETUP and installled Boot Camp 3.0.x (shows in Windows control panel: Programs and Features.

Ad hoc internet sharing works fine but iPhone won't show up in itunes

Hi all,
I have set up an Ad hoc wifi network on my laptop and am able to connect to it from my iphone 3GS and share its (laptop) internet connection.
I have checked "Sync with this iPhone over wireless networks" in itunes.
However as soon as I unplug the USB cable my iphone disappears from itunes and "Sync Now" on iphone becomes greyed.
I can connect to Internet from iphone using the ad hoc network so I know they two devices are communicating wirelessly.
I just don't understand why I can't see the iphone in itunes.
I am running itunes 10.6.1.7 and IOS 5.1
Any help will be highly appreciated

Try another usb port or this:

USB Speaker/LED Cinema Display Problems After Upgrade to Mavericks

I just upgraded to Mavericks this morning. My set-up includes a new (Late 2013) 27" iMac and a 27" Apple LED Cinema Display, with the mini display port and USB connected from the display to the iMac.
I have a set of Bose USB speakers that I had plugged into the USB port on the Cinema Display for audio. I didn't want to waste one of the USB 3 ports on the iMac so instead was using a USB 2 port on the Cinema Display. This worked fine before upgrading to Mavericks.
Now with Mavericks installed, if I have the speakers plugged in, I get a tone that sounds like very loud feedback. If I plug the USB speakers into one of the USB 3 ports on the iMac however, it works fine.
Does anyone know if this is a known issue with Mavericks? I've read some other posts about display issues, but they were referencing USB displays. In this case the display is connected via mini displayport, but the USB connection on the display seems to be causing issues.
Anyone else experienced this?

I've been experiencing additional issues with USB speakers. I plugged them into a USB port on the iMac itself (as opposed to the LED Cinema Display) and the feedback was gone. However, now I get situations where the audio appears to randomly "die" on the system. If I go into Audio preferences and switch the audio output to the internal speakers, the audio comes back on. If I then switch it back to the USB speakers, it continues to work until it randomly dies again. This happens typically 3-5 times a day.
If I just use the internal speakers as the audio output, I don't get any issues with losing the audio. The USB speakers worked fine on the iMac before upgrading to Mavericks, and still work fine on my late 2011 MBP still running 10.8.5.
I've read about other similar issues (http://www.imore.com/losing-audio-os-x-mavericks-heres-what-you-can-do-about-it). Still waiting for a fix.

IPhoto no longer work after upgrading to Mavericks.

My iPhoto will no longer work after upgrading to Mavericks. iPhoto will not update. How do I fix this?

Just upgraded and Iphoto will not work,
Check that iPhoto is v9.5.1 (In Applications, highlight iPhoto, and ⌘I)
If it is v9.5.1, then hold option-command and click the iPhoto icon and go through the repair steps.

After upgrading to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5 my shared photo streams seem to contain no photos when seen in iPhoto. From iPad the streams are fine. How can I get them to be recognized by iPhoto again?

Disable Photo Stream in the System/iCloud preference pane
and in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.
Reboot and reenable both respectively. That should jump start Photo Stream.

Does iDVD work with Maverick? This is the first time I tried to burn a DVD using iDVD after upgrading to Maverick. It seems to get stuck at encoding menu stage and not doing anything.

I tried to burn a DVD using iDVD after upgrading to Maverick, first time I tried after upgrading to Maverick a few weeks ago. It seems to get stuck at encoding menu stage and not doing anything. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I did not have a DVD handy to burn but I have just created a small 2 minute video and created a Disk Image and also a VIDEO_TS folder, the encoding worked correctly, so it works with some items.
You may get a better responce in the iDVD forum.

After upgrading to Mavericks App store only works for me when I switch over other users

After upgrading to Mavericks, the only options that work for me on App Store are Updates and Purchases, anything else only works if I switch my user either to guest or root? Any idea? Thx in advance.

Read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data.
Quit the App Store application if it’s running. Wait at least 10 seconds before continuing.
Step 1
Hold down the option key and select
Go ▹ Library
from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
Caches/com.apple.appstore
Caches/com.apple.storeagent
Caches/storeagent
Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.appstore.plist
Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.storeagent.plist
Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
Leave the Library folder open. Try the App Store again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
Step 2
If you still have problems, quit again and wait 10 seconds. Go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
Test. If the App Store now works, delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit again. Put back the files you moved, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place, and post your results.
