  • Excel 2011 can't open old Excel 98 and Excel X files

    I have lots of old Excel workbooks that were created on my Mac that go back at least as far as 1999. They were created in 1998 Excel 8.0 (from Office 98), 2000 Excel 9.0 (from Office 2001), and 2001 Excel 10.0 (from Office v.X) (I'm assuming these were the versions I used way back then because I have always used Office since the beginning of time.) Excel 2011 will not open these files. When I try to open these files, I get the message:
    Excel could not open [filename] because some content is unreadable. Do you want to open and repair this workbook? If excel cannot repair the file, some data may be lost.
    If I click Open and Repair, Excel hangs.
    Of course, being a Mac user since 1983, these files do not have those ugly extensions hanging on the file name, but that really isn't the problem. I can add extensions (like .xls) to the file name, which changes the appearance of the icon, but Excel still hangs when trying to Open and Repair these files.
    Can someone explain what the problem is?

    Some of those are pretty ancient!
    Did you ever install the converter?
    Mac users using Word 2004 who receive a Word 2008 for Mac, (or Word 2007 for Windows) document, will not be able to read this without having the Open XML Converter installed, which can be downloaded from Microsoft.
    Go to this page:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx
    and click on the right under Most Popular, 'Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0.2'
    This opens a window at the bottom of the page. Scroll that to the bottom and click on English.dmg, and it will download for you as a disk image, which can be installed in the usual way.
    After installation you can open and read .xml formatted Word 2008 documents in Word 2004.

  • Can't run software in Classic mode

    Boy, I've tried to fix this myself and just can't. I have a new out-of-the-box Mac Mini with a generic USB keyboard. I've got some old Mac software (really old) which is really a main reason I bought the mini. I can't get Classic to run because it's not already installed. I have the OS9.2.1 disc, but I can't boot from the CD (I tried pressing C on bootup -- either my Mac can't boot from CD or my keyboard doesn't communicate properly). When I try to run the OS9 installer to get Classic to work, I get the hair-pulling error message that I need to run the installer in Classic
    mode.
    A friend said I need the discs which came with the Mini, but I don't think there are any. Can the software which should have come with it be downloaded and burned on to a new CD in order to create a bootable CD?
    Argh!!! Please help!
    Warren

    Thanks -- I did try that, just forgot to mention it. the CD isn't one of the options in startup disk. It says I can choose the hard drive or the network, and I've tried both. A friend said that Mac Minis can't boot from CD -- don't know if that's correct or not, but I can't seem to get it as an option.
    I've tried to find any CD that may have come with the Mac Mini -- my friend said to look for one called "additional software and apple hardware test CD that came with the Mac Mini" but that is nowhere to be found. Either it didn't actually come with it (my hunch) or the staff in the receiving department took them out for safekeeping and hid them in a drawer somewhere and have forgotten. (Also possible.)
    I can't imagine that I'm the only person in the world with this problem, but my tech support staff warned me in the first place. I wanted to try using some macs mixed in with our PC setup (because they can run this software, and because it seemed easy) and they said that they wouldn't be able to provide much support, since they're all PC people. I figured "how much support can it need? They're designed to be easy to use!" Oh well.
    I'd really be keen to get any more suggestions from anyone who can help!!

  • How can i run OS 9 (classic) on an intel IMAC G5 running Leopard 10.5.6

    Hi,
    I run a program that requires classic, i have been running a G4 laptop on the side of my imac, but i would really like to just use my iMac as a 'one does it all' scenario. Does anyone know how i can run the Classic mode as a background to my Leopard system, ie in conjunction?
    many thanks.
    Keith

    If you have an Intel iMac, you can't use Classic.
    If you heve a G5 iMac, you have to install 10.4.11 or earlier on a Firewire external hard drive, or a separate partition after partitioning your hard drive for both 10.5 and 10.4.11. This article tells you if you have a G5 versus an Intel iMac:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301724
    Partitioning is described here, and will erase the entire contents of your hard drive:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61301
    You will also need to use the original iMac G5 install and restore discs to install Mac OS 9 on your 10.4.11 hard drive/partition following these directions:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61802
    See my FAQ* on possible alternative Mac OS X compatible titles for your Mac OS 9 applications:

  • Macbook Pro 2014 (16gb ram) running very slow in excel.  Can anyone help?

    My Macbook Pro 2014 is running extremely slow in Mac Excel 2011.  I just recently made the purchase (Last week) to upgrade from my Macbook Pro 2013.  The upgrade was for work as I handle large spreadsheets in my new role.  It would take some time to load before, and I was told it was because I only had 4GB of RAM.  Now, I have 16 GB of RAM and it runs slower than before.  Can anyone assist me with a solution?

  • Excel 2011 version 14.4.8 running on an iMac gets "out of memory" messages.

    HELP!!!   Excel 2011 running on an iMac with OS 10.10.2 and 16GB Ram gets "out of memory" messages.  When I monitor processes with "Activity Monitor", I am using less than half of my RAM.  The Excel workbook has many sheets and also some macros.  The basic workbook has been running for about two and half years starting in August 2012 without any problems until I upgraded to Yosemite in early December 2014.  Now I often have to restore the entire file content because it gets corrupted after not being able to save the file because of the "out of memory" message.  I can take a file and its content that ran fine a year ago and run it today and it will eventually get corrupted and get the "Out of memory" message after saving/quitting/re-opening the file any where from 6 to 15 to 25 times.  I think I need to have more memory allocated to Excel, but Yosemite doesn't provide any way for the user to interact with the memory management process.  I have also experienced the very same problem on my MacBook Pro that runs Yosemite.  I have worked file/path name length issues, closely inspected the macros that normally don't run except when activated with a user pressed button, and made sure I don't have any weird links within the workbook or even links to another file outside the workbook.  This problem seems to get worse as a continue to fill up the spread sheet with more financial data.  This Excel workbook is used to manage my club's finances; I am the club treasurer.  I have searched the internet for clues about similar problems and have found none!
    My iMac is a 27-inch, Late 2009 with a 2.8GHz Intel Core i7 Processor.  It includes 16GB of 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM.  The hard drive is a fussed 1TB rotating HD with 128 GB SSD.  This hardware has been running for about 27 months.  I am a very advanced Mac user that programs Excel and Filemaker and repairs Macs for others.

      I am a very advanced Mac user that programs Excel and Filemaker and repairs Macs for others.
    I am a not a very advanced Mac user that uses programs like Excel and Filemaker and avoids any repairs of Macs for others
    Given the caveat, have you tried reinstall of Office? Your MS Office 2011 may have become corrupted.  After upgrading to Yosemite I had to reinstall my Office 2011.  No crashes.
    The current version of Office 2011 is 14.4.8.
    First - find your Office 2011 install disc with the product key # - and only then remove Office according to MS instructions
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768
    Or go here to DianefromOregon's site for help removing Office 2011:
    http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
    Then Reinstall from DVD
    Then enter your Product #
    After successfully reinstalling Office 2011,  update your Office product using the Software update within Office called Microsoft Update or going to the Help menu within Word or Excel or PowerPoint and select Update.
    It may take a few times before you get to final upgrade to current Office version.
    It should be 14.4.8 as of current date.

  • How to run Excel 2011 from applescript for batch

    Every night at 2:00am, I want to convert an Excel spreadsheet to CSV.  I'm doing this on a Mac, with Excel 2011.  The following Applescript works sometimes:
    tell application "Microsoft Excel"
              open "/Users/siemsen/PetesLookup/BPO.inventory.current.xls"
              save active workbook in "BPO.inventory.current.csv" as CSV file format
      close workbook 1 saving no
      quit
    end tell
    With the above script saved in a file named convert.scpt, I can execute it from a bash script using the command "osascript convert.scpt".  The bash script runs in a launchd job at 2:00am every day.
    It works if Excel is already running on the Mac at the time the cron job runs.  If not, it starts Excel, which insists on displaynig a "Excel Workbook Gallery" dialog box.  No one is present on the Mac at the time, so no one clicks on the "Cancel" in the dialog box, so the Applescript times out and the cron job fails.
    How do I get around this?  Can I somehow start Excel without the **** "Excel Workbook Gallery" dialog?  Is there some other trick that will allow the job to run unattended?

    In Excel preferences (general tab) uncheck the checkbox that says "Open Project Gallery when application opens".  that should remove the startup dialog.

  • MS Excel 2011 pivot tables and Lion

    Hi,
    I run quite a lot of spreadsheets with pivot tables in MS Excel 2011. With the most recent version of Snow Leopard and all the patches from Microsoft it seemed to be working quite well. The minute after the upgrade to Lion, when I tried to refresh a pivot table Excel crashed, and it is crashing on every single file that I have. I also created new files from scratch, ran a new pivot table, and the second time I open the file it would crash upon refresh.
    Apart from being extremely annoying, there seems to be no way around it for the time being; I really hope that with the next release of Office 2011 they fix it. Anyone has similar experiences or ideas?
    Thanks,
    Claudio

    This is absolutely a problem after insalling Lion!  Office 11 was a great improvement over office 08 to handle pivot tables and now pivot tables are basically useless on Office 11, running Lion.  I confirm that munipulating pivot tables in Excel 11 causes excel to crash every time.

  • Can Excel 2011 for Mac connect to OLAP cubes ?

    I am trying to connect to an external source for Pivot Table data which is an OLAP Cube.  On my PC version of Excel I simply choose Data - From other Sources - From Analysis Services and away we go - this option does not appear to be available on the Mac verison of Excel 2011
    Does anyone know how I can overcome this?

  • I am running 4 ipod classica through one computer and one itunes account/profile.  The ipods belong to me, husband and 2 kids.  How can the kids now get their own accounts but keep the stuff I have already downloaded for them?  They have their own laptops

    I am currently running 4 ipod classics through my own account/profile on itunes.  They belong to me, my husband and 2 kids. 
    The kids are getting older now and have their own laptops.  I would like them to have their own itunes accounts as they will be away from home much of the time and will want to make their own puchases. 
    How can I set them up so that they are independent from my account, but not lose the content that I have downloaded for them over the years?  (A lot of content).

    You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that.  Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card.  Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account. 
    Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud.  Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account.  To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
    Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

  • Can you run multiple Excel Services Applications against a single Web Application?

    I have been struggling with this one for a while now, hopefully someone can help me understand what I am missing...
    I have a single SharePoint Farm.  This farm runs multiple Web Applications & the Service Applications.
    1. SharePoint Only Server with Multiple Site Collections (http://sharepoint.com/...)
    2. MS Project Server with Multiple Site Collections (http://pwa.com/...)
    3. My services applications all exist on the same farm.
    I was under the impression, and believe that I validated this through testing and from this site (http://blogs.office.com/2009/11/16/excel-services-in-sharepoint-2010-administration-improvements),
    that you can only run a single Excel Services Application against each unique Web Application.  In essence, I can run one Excel Services Application against the SharePoint Only Server, and another Excel Services Application against the MS Project
    Server...  However, I can NOT run multiple Excel Services Applications against the different Site Collections within the MS Project Server becuase it is only aware of its "default" Excel Service Application. 
    ie. I can NOT do the following:  ExcelServiceApp1 for
    http://pwa.com/SiteA & ExcelServiceApp2 for
    http://pwa.com/SiteB
    Is that correct?
    If that is not correct, then I must be missing a way to specify a different Excel Service App for each Project Web App Site. 
    Some other solutions that I think may work, but would really appreciate if someone could validate:
    - Create multiple Project Server Service Applications for each instance of PWA/Excel Service? (but wouldn't this still have to use one of the two WebApplications and cause the same limitation?)
    - Create a new Web Applciation for each PWA/Excel Service?  (ie.
    http://pwasite1.com;
    http://pwasite2.com; http://pwasite3.com, etc.)
    Thoughts/suggestions are very greatly appreciated!!!

    Hello Trpy2k
    I have not done what you are doing and I assume that you are using project server 2010.  However, you answer lives in PowerShell.
    The New-WebServiceProxy show that you can create a new proxy by spacing a URL and not a web application. The default proxy from the web application is directing to the default excel service.  If you need another excel service, you must specify another
    proxy and this may do it for you.
    Also, don't forget the Secure State service and that each excel report will need this configured, that is with the assumption that the other excel service requires different authentication.
    PS.  This question may get a better answer in the SharePoint forums.
