  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

  • How can I restore my Microsoft Word Documents which became Unix Executable Files after my Macbook Pro Crashed?

    After my MacBook Pro suddenly crashed, we had Best Buy's Geek Squad attempt to save the files. According to them, they were successful in doing so and put all of the saved files in a folder on my desktop which they labeled "Backup". The problem is, all of the files are in a Unix Executable format. When you double click on any of them, they pull up the terminal and that's it. After researching the issue and trying to grasp what was going on, I learned that you can open these files in Text Edit and sometimes find the file extension (.png .jpeg .amr .qt) that belongs at the end of the filename in order for it to be pulled up. In doing this, I had some success restoring some photos, audio files, and videos. However, no luck at all in restoring any of my Microsoft Word documents or even finding out which Unix Executables are Word documents. I've even tried to add .docx to various files just to see if I would luck out. Nope .  Any help would be SO SO greatly appreciated!!!

    Just to make sure, your Mac meets Snow Leopard's requirements?
    Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard - Technical Specifications
    Yes, Lion does require that  you have Snow Leopard installed so you have access to the Mac App Store.
    And you do need to be running v10.6.8 in order to upgrade to Lion >  http://www.apple.com/macosx/how-to-buy/
    When you verified the startup disk using Disk Utility, what were the results?
    Wouldn't hurt to do that again. From your admin account launch Disk Utility. Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab. Click: Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions).
    If the startup disk needs repairing, boot from your install disk to make repairs >  Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
    While you have the DU window open, check Capacity & Available at the bottom of the window. Make sure there is a minimum of 15% free disk space.

  • How can I open old Microsoft Word Documents in Pages 9?

    My new version of Pages '09 (Ver 4.1) is rejecting older versins of Word documents as unrecognized formats.  Is there a means by which I can convince Pages to open these?

    Peter,
    LibreOffice was an excellent suggestion.  It solved my problem and introduced me to what I know will be a valuable utility.
    Thanks.

  • How can I convert a Microsoft Publisher document to PDF format. I have free version of Acrobat.

    How can I convert a Microsoft Publisher document to PDF format. I have free version of Acrobat.

    Hi raythree,
    I'm sorry that your PDF conversion is working. Can you please tell me if you're getting a specific error message? Knowing that can help pinpoint the cause of the conversion failure. However, here are a couple of things that you could try:
    Clear your browser cache (steps to do this vary by browser).
    If you're using a work computer, check with your IT team to confirm if you have firewall/proxy settings that restrict the ability to upload files to the Internet.
    Try another web browser.  A list of supported browsers for accessing the ExportPDF service is available here: http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/.
    Also, note that there is a 100MB file size limit, so if your publisher file is larger than that, it won't upload to ExportPDF.
    I hope this helps. But let us know if you need further assistance.
    Best,
    Sara

  • How can i view a downloaded word document in pages?

    how can i view a downloaded word document in pages?   i tried to download a file, which worked, but i can't view it since i don't have word office

    Not sure what you are saying but Pages just opens Word documents, drag the Word document onto Pages' icon.
    Or open the Word document from the Open dialog.
    If you are talking about testing a Word document after you have exported it from Pages then you will need of course to have Word to open it but there are free clones of Word as well such as LibreOffice, Openoffice and Neoffice that will do that as well.

  • How can i work in office word or excel

    Hello sir,
    1) Is there any options to make new file in word or excel?
    2) How can i work in new file of word or excel or it's only use for update file?

    In Pages you just go to Inspector > Text > More > Language and switch it there.  No need to restart anything.
    For other apps, you can try Edit > Spelling and Grammar > Show Spelling and Grammar and change the dictionary there.
    I don't think there is yet any reliable way to change spellcheck automatically when you change language.

  • How can i save and download word documents on my ipad without the pages app

    Need to know how to save documents on my ipad so i can share the same version of documents between my computer and my ipad on the same network. I do not have the pages app. and Most of the documents are either pdfs of word docs. so need to be able to save them on ipad and retrieve them when i am on the move. Pls help?

    You have to have an app on the iPad that is compatible with the particular file type that you want to save, edit or share. You can look at any of the word processing apps - Pages is one, Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro - but you have to have one like that in order to save and edit Word files.
    With pdf files - iBooks will work to save them - but that's all. Other apps like GoodReader will let you annotate them.
    You have to decide which app will serve your needs best and them download them in order to save, edit and share those file types.

  • How do I convert a microsoft word document to a pdf?

    I need help to submit an assignment for school but I can't figure out how to convert word to a pdf.  My old computer was easy.  All I had to do was right click and convert, not with this computer. Can anyone shed some light? Thank you

    Hey cherelle,
    You might need to open the word document and choose 'PDFMaker' from the menubar or 'Adobe PDF' printer option from the Files menu for the same.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I Launch a Microsoft WORD Document using AciveX from testStand

    Hello All:
    I would like to launch a Word document from within Teststand. I would also like to have the ability to search the document for particular sections of the document. I can not find any sequence file examples that even comes close to demonstrating any of this.
    Thanks...

    Hello Craig,
    I have attached an example that will demonstrate this for you. You may need to change the Word Server to match the version of Word that you have installed. This can be done by right clicking on each ActiveX step and select Specify Module. Under Automation Server, scroll down the list to Microsoft Word... and select it.
    This is primarily an example to demostrate calling Microsoft Word from TestStand. If you require additional functionality from the Microsoft Word ActiveX server then you should refer to the API reference help for Microsoft Word.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do I transfer from Microsoft word document to my Ipad?

    How do I transfer a document in Microsoft Word on my computer to my Ipad?

    You need an app on the iPad that is capable of reading/recognising Word documents. If you've got an app then one options is to do it via the bottom of the iPad's apps tab on your computer's iTunes (apps that allow file sharing, i.e. saving/copying content, are listed there), and a second option, if the app has the facility, is via wifi.

  • How can I load my Microsoft Office documents to iCloud?

    I just migrated from Mobile Me to iCloud.  How can I get the doucments I had on iDisk into iCloud.  They were mostly Microsoft Office docs. 
    Also in the future, if I create an Office doc, how do I get it on iCloud? 

    You can load some types of office documents to the iWork section at Icloud.com, however you will need the iOS versions of the iWork apps in order to do this.
    I guess however that you are intending using iCloud as general storage as you would have done on your iDisk. Unfortunately iCloud offers no alternative to MobileMe's iDisk, you should consider a third-party alternative such as dropbox or sugarsync.
    I also note that your profile states you are using OS X 10.6.2, if that is correct are you aware that you need lion (10.7.2 or better) in order to use iCloud .
