Green Excel logo on screen but will not open or quit?

Excel will not open or close on my iMac. The Greeen Excel logo opens but just remains on the screen while the spinning ball spins endlessly. Cannot be closed by restarting or "quitting" from the Dock.

I'd recommned re-posting on the Office for Mac Product Forums.

My outlook will not open yet all other microsoft packages will. When I click on the icon, the 'o' logo will come up for a split second but will not open the package - need to receive emails asap!

You're very welcome!
I meant holding the "option" (or "alt") key on your keyboard as you click the Outlook icon on the Dock, and continuing to hold it until you see the Microsoft Database Utility come up. Alternatively, you can open the utility by navigating to Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office and then double-clicking the Microsoft Database Utility app.
When you rebuild your database using that program, a backup copy of your original database (containing your account info, contacts, mail, calendars, etc) will be created. As a security precaution, you should also ensure you have a backup of your database (which you can find by going to Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/ and copying the contents of that folder onto an external drive).

Mouse Scrolls up on software screens, but will not scroll down

My wired apple mouse will scroll back up a web page or other software screen but will not scroll down using the finger tip scroller ball - any ideas on how to make it work properly again?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Some applications are not opening, including mail and Word. Clicking on the icon stirs it on the dock, but will not open it.

Ok, that's plenty of space.
Check the S.M.A.R.T. status on your HD: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down the c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > select Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on the left side (the name of the HD’s manufacturer and the model number, usually the top item in the list) > look at the bottom of the main window next to S.M.A.R.T. status and see if it says “Verified” (good) or something more ominous like “Failing.”
If S.M.A.R.T. status is "Verified," run Repair Disk > click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility (such as DriveGenius, TechToolPro, DiskWarrior) or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD which will need to be replaced (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

Thanks.

I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
Thanks

ITunes installs properly, but will not open

I have just upgraded from iTunes 6.0.1 to 6.0.2
Everything installed correctly, and I am receiving no error messages; the program simply will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times, and I have exactly the same problem each time.
My music files (including ones that I purchased from Apple's music store) will open with other players, but will not open with the newly installed v6.0.2
I am running Norton Internet security, but the problem still occurs after I disable the program.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Well, that annoying. So, I am a bit confused here. Does iTunes launch at all or sometimes? BTW, You need to Configure Norton to allow iTunes to open. Otherwise, it will continue to block it silently.
Do you see, under your Processes tab in your Windows Task Manager, both Quicktime and iTunes?

U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
Try the following:
Repair permissions & restart.
Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.

Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any.

Have just upgraded to version 4 and when I go to Goggle search for a website it shows me a list but will not open any. If I use the bookmarks all of the websites open perfectly. I've closed Firefox down and opened again and a message says "how embarassing" and tells me to restore or start a new session. Have tried both but still will not let me open any websites on the google search page.

. I did however, delete the majority of my photos off of iPhoto after I backed them up because I needed room in my library.

I placed my aperture library on a 1 TB external drive (the file is 300 GB) and Aperture churns and churns but will not open the file. I don't know if the file is too large or if it is the external drive or what? any ideas? Smaller files will open.

If this is an external USB drive, you must understand that USB is really, really slow. There may be nothing wrong except for that.
In my opinion, USB external drives are only acceptable for backups, and to get "near Hard Drive" performance, you need FireWire.

Hi, Ken -
Since you have a new install of OSX, you may be missing Stuffit Expander, needed to expand downloads encrypted/archived in a Stuffit format. That problem confronted me with a new machine running OSX 10.6; a download and install of Stuffit Expander fixed it.
You can download Stuffit Expander from this webpage -
http://www.stuffit.com/mac-expander-download.html
Note - be sure to get the version that matches your OSX version.

HT1277 my email displays but will not open, just the spinning icon

My email displays but will not open in my laptop or ipad. I just keep getting the spinning icon. I can recieve emails on my iphone. Any suggestions?

If Mail.app will launch on OS X and you can get to the Preferences settings and related, see the Apple Mail.app troubleshooting article for some suggestions. From there, get that working, then compare the differences between what's working and connecting, and what's not — the Connection Doctor and the Activity window should give you a pretty good idea of where things are hanging up — if not directly what's wrong — when troubleshooting the OS X Mail.app connection.
