Can't open Excel on Mavericks?

I updated to Mavericks a couple of days ago. If I try to open anything on Microsoft Office, it just crashes before opening, and the whole laptop just stops for a couple of minutes. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office, and it still doesn't work. I like iWork, but I really need Excel for some more advanced stuff.

Hello, I have similar problem. After updating to Mavericks I can't open Microsoft Word. I get this messeage:
"Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0

Excel works fine. If anyone has an idea what to do I would be glad.

  • Some users can't open Excel files. It is trying to open it in Internet Explorer "An error has occurred. Please try again."

    I have some users in my company that can't open Excel files from any document libraries on SharePoint 2010. The receive the error message "An error occurred. Please try again."  We don't currently use the Excel calculations services. When
    a user opens an excel file they are prompted to either Read Only or Edit.
    This affects less than 5 people in a large company.  They have the Full Control permissions and have been able to open the files previously.  There has been no changes made to the server either.  I can't find anything that points to this in the
    event viewer. 
    It doesn't matter if which computer that they try to open this up from either.   All computers are Windows 7 Professional with IE 9 and Office 2010 x64.   
    I can't find anything that points specifically to this exact error. None of the excel files contain pivot tables.    This one has me stumped.

    I would make sure no one has open on machine / locked on machine (Would assume you checked this, but wanted to add)
    Also would have assumed you restarted the machines (:))
    Make sure the file security did not change (check to ensure no one changed the sercuity of the excel)
    Make sure the version of excel is the same (Changing from 2010 back to 2007 affects the file, etc.. on convert) that no one converted and saved thus causing error in file.
    Can they open other excel files?
    It sounds like the excel file it self has changed if you cannot see issue in SharePoint logs.
    If it is all SharePoint excel files - try deleting one persons access and readding them to see if that helps.
    SharePoint has issues ;)

  • How can I open excel pdf files

    How can I open excel pdf files

    Hi mmart1957,
    Do you have Excel files, PDF files, or PDF files that have been converted to Excel? If you're working with PDF files, you'll need either Reader or Acrobat to open the files. If you have a converted Excel file, then you'll need Excel to open it.
    Best,
    Sara

  • I can't open excel as its a powerPC app what do I do?  Help ....

    I can't open excel as its a powerPC app what do I do? 
    It tells me PowerPC applications are no longer supported - I wish I'd been told this before upgrading to Lion
    Help ....

    I can't open excel as its a powerPC app what do I do?
    Buy a newer version of Office (assuming it supports Lion). I don't know how the free Office substitutes (Open Office, Neo Office) stand as regards to Lion support.  Apple has its own Office equivalent (Numbers, Pages) but I have never seen a copy so I can't say anything about it.
    As Klaus said, dropping PPC coding support was mentioned before release, but is obviously not the first thing they are going to tell you about Lion.  For those of us using Macs the rule of thumb has been for support to drop roughly 4 years after a hardware or software platform has been discontinued.  This is no publicized formal policy but if you check the various hardware and software releases over the past decade you'll see that support discontinues about 2 OS releases after whatever was current at the time. Leopard was the last OS that ran on PPC, and Lion is 2 OS releases after Leopard, so I don't think any of us are surprised that anything related to PPC is now gone.  Unfortunately it just means that Mac owners have to either be well-heeled to make more frequent computer purchases, or you have to be savvy and figure workarounds and be thankful for third party support.

  • Can't open excel error message -1712

    can't open excel comes up with error message -1712

    As Ms Office is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. I think you will find them more than helpful.

  • "Open In Excel" button inside the Xlviewer.aspx page return Error and I can not open excel using local office

    Inside the xlviewer.aspx page when I click on "Open In Excel" at first I receive this Error: 
    Some files contain viruses that can be harmful to your computer. it is important to be certain that this file is from a trustworthy sourceDo you want to open this file?
    Then, When I click on Yes, the second error message(below) shows and I can not open Excel using my local Excel Application.
    This action couldn't be performed because office doesn't recognize the command it was given.
    I should notice that the application is published under the HTTPS protocol.
    It is just working with IE 9.0. Neither Chrome nor IE after 9.0.

    Sure. I posted here since I suspect that the lastest upgrade may have a bearing on it.
    What do I need to move it over to Number and Lion?

  • Upgraded to maverick and now can't open excel projects

    I recently upgraded to maverick and now can't go back to open excel spreadsheets I need for my business. I've even changed the permissions and I can only preview, not modify. Any suggestions?

    Was just having this issue with my wife's computer after upgrading to Mavericks. Maybe a long shot, but if your filenames have forward slashes in them (such as for dates), change them to backslashes. No idea why but it works. I seem to recall having the same problem with Excel some time in the past and this was the solution then too.

  • Can't open Excel or Word files on share drive (SMB or AFP) after 10.9.2

    After updating to Mavericks OS 10.9.2, I can no longer open excel or word files on my company file share.  I receive the error:
    'FILEPATH' could not be found.
    Ckeck the spelling of the file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
    If you are trying to open the file from your list of most frequently used files on the File menu, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted.
    I am able to open files on my lcaol hard drive, and other external USB Flash drives.  Word present's a slightly different error, with the same theme (filename).
    I've tried rebooting both the client and server (both running 10.9.2).  Was successful opening files when booting the client into safe mode.  Any ideas?
    Bill

    I don't know if this will help but I had a similar problem that started yesterday. I have two macs.  Once can't open MS Office files from the other Mac but can open Office files on each Mac. Drove me nuts for about 2 hours today - on the phone with Apple twice and Microsoft once.  Finally found a similar post from 2007 that suggested to turn off and on file sharing by unchecking the "Share files and folders using AFP", on both computers and rebooting. That fixed it. 
    Funny thing, it was only with Office files I created since updating the software last week. Old Office files opened fine. 

  • Can't open iPhoto after maverick update

    Hi
    Updated to Maverick and now can't open i photo and can't get it to update. Hepl!

    What update? With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what update did you apply?
    what version of iPhoto are you currently using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when you try to open iPhoto?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    Happy Holidays

  • Can't Open Excel Files in iOS 6

    One of my co workers upgraded to the new iOS 6 last week and now they can't open some of the Excel files from their iPhone 4S.  I can open the file with no problem, I have iOS 5.1.1 iPhone 4S.  iOS 6 can open some of the excel files, but I know it can't open them all.  Some of the .xlsx files will open but some can't.  Anyone else having this problem?

    Here is the pic of what happens why he opens the file on iOS 6.  It does not go any further.  I open it fine with no problems, I am on iOS 5.1.1
