Conflict between Office 2011 and fonts

Hi everybody,
I'm new in this forum and I need helps quickly.
I have a Macbook Mid-2010, I use many apps like photoshop and Illustrator, so I installed many fonts few days ago. 
Today, I wanted to open Word and Excel, but without success, an error message opens and close the software all the time.
I repair the permissions, uninstall and install the software again but it's the same error all the time.
If you have fews ideas to help me, please contact me.

Hi,
I think I am having the same issue - already since office 2008. I hoped 2011 will solve the issue but it didn't. As soon as I try to paste from Mail, Safari, Text Edit Word hangs with 100% CPU showing the beach ball. This happens on a new user account as well, pasting from firefox e.g. works fine though.
I tried every single solution tip I found from the internet including reinstalling office (removed every office related file I found), taking care of font issues, cleaned font cache and even user caches using applejack in single user mode: Nothing helped.
As I found out during my research MS blames Apple and vice versa and paying customers are stranded...
Is there really no working solution for this except reinstalling OSX or buying a new machine!?
PS all software is updated OSX 10.6.7 and office 14.1.0 SP 1

    I moved from an old macbook to a new one.  I have installed Office for Mac 2011. I copied all my files from my old notebook onto a hard drive.  On trying to setup my mail, i went into my hard drive and accessed microsoft user identities, office 2011 and it shows the database but wont let me select it.  Its almost as if the file is there but not accessable.  I desperately need to access my old mail.  How do I do this?  I am fairly confident that I copied all files off my old notebook.  Is there a way for me to search for the Database file?  Maybe I copied it to a different location?  Urgent help please.

    Hello mafrerichs and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    Simplest way is to use Target Disk mode:

    and hook to another Mac and use CCC or SuperDuper and clone your HD to another drive.
    You could also pull the drive out of your MBP and use an external USB case or SATA - USB dongle to hook it to another Mac.

  • How can i troubleshoot a "software conflict between a device and something in my original user account"

    hi
    my canon video camera (HV20) wasnt being recognised by iMovie (error message...in system report was "Unable to list FireWire devices".)
    in researching a solution i came across some firewire advice in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1151#trouble which suggests there may be a "software conflict between the device and something in your original user account."
    i changed to another account on my iMac and my camera connected immediately.
    is anybody able to explain how i go about fixing this "software conflict".
    many thanks

    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes > Outbox.mbox.
    The Outbox.mbox represents "Out" in the mailboxes drawer and is shared by all accounts.
    Delete the Outbox.mbox and empty the Trash.
    Launch Mail and a new Outbox.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the Mailboxes folder and this should resolve the problem.

  • Conflict Between Bluetooth Mouse and WIFI?

    I Bought the new MBPR X72 and a Iogitech Bluetooth Mouse.When i download something by Wifi,My mouse can't work well.I search the answer on Google,some people said that there is a conflict between Bluetooth mouse and Wifi.Because they are both use the 2.4G HZ.So anyone can help me ??

    If you are on your home network, you could set the router and MBPr to use only the 5 GHz band if you are using the n-protocol WiFi.  That would mean logging intothe router and changing band usage settings.  The MBPr would follow what it sees as the wireless signal.

  • Version conflicts between host labview and RT engine

    there is problem that i cannt switch target to feild point. It said that "version conflicts between host labview and RT engine" . But my labview is version 7.0 and the real time module is version 7.0 too. Anyone can give me hand? Thanks

    Depending on your version of MAX, you should be able to change the version on the FP (in remote systems). If you can't do it in 3.0, try upgrading to 3.1 (you will have to search for it on the site). If that doesn't work, you can try resetting to factory default and then see if you can do this.
    Another tip, which for some reason seems to help, is updating the OS\Run-Time Engine when windows is in safe mode.
    Try these and see if they help.
    BTW, as a tip for next time, you're more likely to get a good answer for something like this if you post in the FieldPoint board.
    Try to take over the world!

  • I've downloaded Microsoft Office 2011 and installed it, but i can't find it on my applications or open it up in my downloads

    I've downloaded Microsoft Office 2011 and installed it, but i can't find it on my applications or open it up in my downloads. I can I get my microsoft up and running? - New to Mac

    Did you actually run the installer? If so, there should be a Microsoft Office 2011 folder in your Applications folder. Have you checked there and confirmed that the folder does not exist? If it does not, try running the Office installer again. Note that if all you did is open the disk image file, you have to now go to the image (which looks like a drive in Finder) and then run the installer.
    Regards.

  • I have a MacBook Pro (purchased in 2011) with OS X Lion 10.7.4.  I'm using Microsoft Office 2011 and cannot open older PowerPoint Files (non .pptx). It will always open the same .pptx file and then the machine hangs up and just keeps spinning.

    Thank you - that all makes sense. It is, indeed, exactly what I did when I upgraded.
    I'm also writing this on the machine that crashed a few minutes ago (I posted the crash in another thread). I got back with a 'safe boot' - as I have done a few times before.
    I've also de-installed little snitch (and then done a safe-boot & then re-boot ) since that seemed involved. I de-installed Adobe flash, since that seemed to be a problem - I then re-installed the later, apparently fixed, flash. The most recent crashes don't seeme to have a problem with flash any more.
    I've posted the various ( generally different ) crashes. I also posted a summary of the similar lines that turn up in most of the crashes.
    Unfortuantely, I'm actually trying to use the machine to meet some urgent deadlines and all this is not making it at all easy.
    I had had great hopes for 10.7.2 - I thought that the crashes must be pretty common, so would have a common aetiology. There do seem to have been some fundamental changes to the file sytem and to the video interface (that seems to cause problems to brand new iMacs as well as to my 2009 iMac).

  • After installing MS Office 2011, Safari fonts are displaying incorrectly

    I'm running OS X v. 10.6.4 on an Intel iMac.
    This morning, I installed Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac, and when I went to my safari browser and googled something, my fonts look like the image below:
    Even as I'm typing this now, this font is showing the same way! I did a thorough uninstall of MS Office, emptied my font cache, browser cache, reset safari, logged out + in, restarted my comp 100 times, and I'm at a loss.
    Is it possible my arial font was corrupted somehow? I know Office installs its own evil fonts, which I'm pretty sure I have now deleted. How would I get a new, working version of the default Arial font and reinstall it?

    Office 2011 installs a bunch of fonts that conflict with those installed by OS X. Read section 3 of Font Management in OS X to see which to remove, and which to keep.
    I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.

  • New iMac- installed Office 2011, default font troubles

    A friend just purchased a 25" iMac. All is well, until I install MS Office 2011. I haven't seen this, but she reports font problems (foreign language defaults or file import gibberish, I don't now). Is this a common complaint. The OS is Mavericks.

    The font conflicts came from the installation of Office 2011. It installs a handful of old, OS 9 style TrueType fonts that conflict with the newer OpenType fonts installed by OS X. While you already did use Font Book to resolve the conflicts (it turned one or the other off), you should remove the offending older fonts from the drive.
    Remove the following Mac legacy TrueType suitcase fonts from the /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/ folder:
    Andale Mono
    Arial Black
    Arial Narrow
    Arial Rounded Bold
    Comic Sans MS
    Georgia
    Impact
    Tahoma
    Trebuchet MS
    Note that the older fonts do not have a file extension, such as .ttf . Font Book doesn't like it when you manually remove fonts from the drive. So after getting rid of the old fonts, do the following to reset Font Book's database.
    Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding the Shift key until you see a progress bar towards the bottom of the screen. You can let go of the Shift key at that point. Yosemite is a bit different. Whether it's a Safe Mode boot or a normal one, you get the same progress bar. It just takes longer to get to the desktop in Safe Mode. So hold the Shift key until you get to the desktop.
    OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally. This will clear Font Book's database and the cache files of the user account you logged into in Safe Mode.
    All in all, since the conflicts have already been resolved, you don't have to do any of this. But Font Book doesn't tell you which version of a conflicting font it disabled. For all the user knows, the much older fonts could be the active ones, and many newer apps don't work well with non Unicode fonts.

  • Office 2011 and WPAD Autoproxy

    We have a problem where Office 2011 will not communicate to EWS with "Automatic Proxy Discovery" enabled in the network proxy settings.
    * Outlook 2011 v14.2.4
    * OSX 10.8.2
    Before you ask, the network, DNS, Exchange etc. is working 100%.
    * WPAD or PAC config works on all devices, operating systems and browsers on that network (Win7, OSX, iOS, Droid etc.) - this includes Outlook 2011 on OSX 10.6 and 10.7.
    * Same behaviour with OSX 10.8 clean install or 10.6/10.7 upgrade.
    * Safari, Firefox and Chrome all work fine with WPAD on the same installation.
    * Outlook 2011 works with manual proxy settings on same installation.
    => Outlook 2011 + OSX 10.8 + WPAD = Broken.
    n.b. I have generated the same question with Microsoft Community forums and the verdict is it's a Mountain Lion problem.

  • Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails

    Are there any known conflicts between Mountain Lion (10.8.3) and Microsoft Outlook for Mac? After installing, I can't send or receive eMails. Using a Macbook Pro.

    Is this a recent problem or has it been going on for some time.  If you just updated to ML, you might want to confirm that you've update to the latest MS Office / Outlook patches.

  • Office 2011 and Yosemite

    friends would tell them the error you have with Yosemite and Office 2011 either program package are cut when they load the fonts. know how to fix it? I have already downloaded all the update and has no solution. Help please

    I am still having huge issues. There is 55 Gb available after I had gone through and deleted stuff off my hard drive so it cant be a storage problem.
    I am really upset with this whole issue as it is making it virtually impossible for me to work from home so I am spending 28 hours a day in my office.
    Not fun.
    Does anyone have any other suggestions please? When will Yosemite be fixed so that this stops happening on Macbook Pros/ I cant afford a new laptop and this is not very old at all. .
    I need to be able to save files, I also need to be able to access the full width of the screen and a raft of other things that are now impossible.
    Thanks

  • How do I get conflict resolution from poping up?  It is saying I have conflicts between MS2008 Entourage and MS2011 Outlook.  This cannot be because I have removed both programs.

    I have recently upgraded to MS Office 2011, Home & Student version from MS Office 2008, Home & Student version.  I tried the trial version of 2011 which had Outlook as it's mail/address/calendar program.  Using the 2008 version of MS Office, Entourage was the contact program of choice.  I have since decided not to use the Outlook program because of too many bugs and am now using Thunderbird for my email service and Apple Address Book for my contact information.  I therefore deleted the Outlook and Entourage address book.  Yet, "Conflict Resolver" keeps poping up and is saying I have 1015 conflicts!  Worse yet, I am unable to correct, even though I went through all 1015 conflicts, one by one.  HELP!  How do I get rid of this problem?

    Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply.
    Yes in standard start-up as it is and in recovery mode I still get the same message about Disk Utility being unable to repair the disk so I should back-up and restore.
    Some posters have said that booting into safe mode should unmount the installer and allow rebooting back into Lion, that would allow me to back-up the files properly, as my last back up was (as is often the way) not too recent.
    But I think your suggestion looks more likely to be he correct way to do it, and I'll take the hit on any data that I may lose.
    Thanks again.
