Can't open Offic:mac

Can't open any of the Office:Mac features, Word, Entourage, Exel or Powerpoint. The icons jump up and down as usual then just quit. Reinstalled Office:Mac from the CD which came with my computer. it set up a new icon with all the symbols but even the newly
installed won't open. Internet Explorer won't open but all others, Safari, Opera and Firefox work just fine. Quicktime tries to open then a message "...unexpectedly quit".
All OS 9 features work ok. iTunes works fine and iPhoto opens and can access pictures but when I try to do a slide show it does the "...unexpectedly quit" thing.
Finally got a message on the screen this afternoon which states: The
application Entourage could not be launched because of a shared libraryerror."C<MicrosoftEntourage><Apple.Carbon.Multimedia><CFM Priv_QuickTime<><". <br>
IMac G4   Mac OS X (10.2.x)   Any suggestions would be appreciated.

hi there--
have you tried a safe boot to see if it works there?? boot holding the shift key until you see a spinning cog under the apple. let me know if it works there. [ 8 ) ]

  • Can't open Office Mac 2008 programs after install

    I just upgraded my MacBook Pro to SL and now I cannot open any of my OfficeMac 2008 programs (i.e. Office or Entourage) - it just shows the title window for the program and goes to 'not responding' mode. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Thanks - I deleted all my user fonts and got rid of some problem ones and everything is working now.

  • I upgraded my Mac from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  I did have Microsoft Office for Mac 2004 in my applications and now get a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported."

    I just upgraded my MAC from OSX 10.5.8 to Snow Leopard and then to Mountain Lion 10.8.2.  When I try to access my Microsoft Office for MAC (2004 edition) files I am getting a message "can't open Office because Power PC applications are no longer supported.  How can I access all of my save Word documents?  I just want to be able to retrieve all of my documents that were in Microsoft Office for Mac (2004).  If I purchase the newest version of MS office for Mac from Apple will I be able to retrieve my old documents?

    Use any number of free alternatives to your nearly decade old version of MS Office.
    Consider
    LibreOffice (donation-supported)
    NeoOffice (free)
    OpenOffice (free)
    In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for years. Life is better without Microsoft.

  • Can't open Office documents from network share

    Dear,
    I have a user named X that can't open Office documents from two specific shares. We call this shares T and U.
    When the user X opens Office documents the error message is "...xlsx can't be opened". The problem is not client specific because when I login on the same client I can open the documents without any problem. If you copy the file to your desktop it
    opens fine.
    Any idea?

    Anybody?
    We have a problem with a customer that they can't open Office documents(Word,Excel etc.) on Windows 8 image on a network share. The error message is just that they can't open the document. The documents are on a sharepoint site and we can open the documents
    within the site and also we can open the Office documents on a Windows 7 image.
    I think there is a group policy for Windows 8 for this but I don't know for sure?
    Anybody?

  • Can't open Office documents from share on Windows 8

    We have a problem with a customer that they can't open Office documents(Word,Excel etc.) on Windows 8.1 image on a network share. The error message is just that the document can't open.
    The documents are on a sharepoint site and we can open the documents within the site and also we can open the Office documents on a Windows 7 image from the networkshares.
    Also can't open the documents if i copy them to the local desktop.
    I think there is a group policy for Windows 8 for this but I don't know for sure?

    Hi,
    As I understand, the issue is that customers can’t open office documents on windows 8.1 on a network share or copying them to the local desktop.
    Per my test, I can open documents on windows 8.1 on a network share.
    1. By default, Word doesn't trust files in temp directories from your browser. You can add the
    network address and local address to the trusted list. From Word 2010/2013: Click File > Word Options > Trust Center->trust center setting->add new location.
    2. You can create a shortcut on the desktop using the network address and then open the documents by that way.
    3. To narrow down the research scope that you can create a new document library->Download a problematic file (an Excel workbook or a word document) to your local->Upload the local file to the new document library->do the same option to check if
    the same situation will occur.
    There is a similar case:

    Hi Sara Fan,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I have added the profile to the trusted locations but without success. Also a shortcut is not working. I still can't open any Office document on that location(Error message: location ***.xxxx can't be opened). The problem occurs on every client.
    1. Opening Office documents under local administrator account, domain admin account is working fine
    2. Re-image the machine is not a solution
    4. All locations use the same Windows 8.1 image through SCCM
    3. When the user logon to another location(site) it's working fine and they can open Office documents so it seems site-specific
    4. The problem is specific from 2 sharepoint shares. We can open office documents from other shares.
    5. Can't open Office documents from the library on the sharepoint site(browser), but on another location it's working fine.
    Problem only occurs on Windows 8.1 image with domain users. Other locations of this company do not have the problem. Note, every location have their own OU for users/clients.
    Any other suggestions?

    Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a fresh copy of Firefox.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    *Firefox 19.0.x: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html
    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible, to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

  • Can't open Office for Mac 2011 on Yosemite

    I have just upgraded from a Mac Pro on Mavericks to an iMac 27" Retina on Yosemite.
    I have been running Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac and since upgrading to the iMac on Yosemite I can no longer open Word, Excel, Powerpoint etc.
    I have reinstalled from the original disk but still no luck.
    I just don't know what to do next, it's odd given that many people apparently have had no problems at all. Has anybody any hints? Thanks

    You may want to select one of those documents in Finder and then use the Finder File menu Get Info (Command I) to see what application it is set to Open With. That can be changed in the same place. Another method is to right-click on the file.

  • Can't open Office for Mac documents on MacBook Air by simply clicking on the document.

    On my MacBook Air, normally I can click on Office for Mac documents and they open no problem. However, now if I click on the document nothing happens. I can only open them if I open the application first and go File > Open. I have had this problem before but I can't remember how I solved it.

  • Safari won't quit, so I can't install Office Mac.

    Hey guys. I got my new Office Mac, and I was hoping to install it. It said Firefox and Safari needed to close. Firefox was a snap (good job guys!), but Safari is doing HORRIBLE. It is not forcing to quit at all, and I don't want to restart or shut down (I bet it wouldn't work.) Now, according to THIS issue... I can't install my Mac Office 2011, and THAT on the other hand stinks, because I need it for school projects.
    Is anyone willing to offer advice??? Thanks!!!
    ~AppleFan17

    You say even force quitting won't work? When Safari is open hold down Option + ⌘ + Q.

  • Can't open Office after upgrading to a larger HDD.

    I recently upgraded my HDD in my Mac to one twice the size. I used the Disk Recovery tool (command + R) to clone my old HDD with all of the software that was installed on it to my new HDD. Now that everything is copied over I tried to open Office for
    Mac 2011 and it asks me for the product key.
    I am not sure where my original software and product key code is. I have already reformatted the previous HDD and don't have any of the stored information on it.
    Is there any way that I can recover or get a different product key that would allow Microsoft Office 2011 to work again for me? I did not know that upgrading to a larger HDD would cause me to lose the Office activation that I already have.
    Thank you for your time.
