How do you actually save a word document in icloud?

Word docs won't be dragged and dropped into icloud box on my mac. I bought the stupid pages app and then iwork from apple thinking that might help, as docs could be saved in Pages format and retrieved on my iPhone. But pages docs can't be password protected, so sensitive documents - such as those containing bank details and the like - can't be saved via the cloud to access on my phone.
With iDisk this was possible. What's the alternative, since Pages is an inferior program in so very many ways to Word?

Word documents can be saved in iCloud, although they will be converted to pages documents when opened on an iOS device. If you are having problems dragging and dropping your Word documents onto iCloud.com, try a another word format.
Pages documents do not require password protection when in iCloud, because iCloud itself is password protected.

How can I save my word documents in ICLOUD

You can't directly, as Microsoft don't include iCloud support in their apps.
You'd have to open your Word file in Apple's Pages and save it to iCloud from there.

How do you hook a MS Word document to a page in my Site?

Hello there,
I have several documents in MS Word that I would like visitors to be able to read them.
How to link the documents, do they have to be in a certain place (ie data base) to be referenced?
Thank you very much in advance.

You can embed the Word document (also text, PDF and HTML documents) into an iWeb page with an iFrame code and an HTML snippet like in this demo page: Scrolling Text Box. The Word document is at the bottom.

How to save a word document in Icloud

is there a way to save a Microsoft Word documetn in ICloud? or do I have to purchase IWork ?

Dropbox is a proven tool that even provides a month's worth of incremental backup. It will also warn you if more than one person opens a given document and makes changes at the same time. That warning is important, but it's still a pain to work through the differences if a collision occurs, so that's why I recommend never actually revising an old version, but rather beginning a new one. Mountain Lion makes that easy with Locking and Duplicate.

How do you paste images in Word documents?

Why when I paste an image into a word document does it often move the image to the top of the page.

Microsoft’s documentation for 2008 did not explain how to set defaults when using *command V* to paste into Word. The pic can jump to the top of the page no matter where the cursor is under some circumstances. Someone who speaks Mac may be able to address the defaults better than passing the buck to Gates.

How do you save a Word document when it says you have no memory?

How do you save a Word document when it says you have no memory?

Connect another disk drive to which you can save the document. Then clear space on your hard drive.
Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion's Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

How do I save and access MS Word documents using iCloud?

How do I access my old documents in iDisk and how do I save new documents created in MS word so they are available to me in the cloud? Do I need to install keynote, numbers and pages now? Before I just accessed my ME account from any computer and worked on a document while I was travelling. Am I now required to have those Apple apps on a computer just to access my documents?

Thank you for trying to help. I'm still lost. I found a post that showed me how to get my iDisk back (https://discussions.apple.com/message/16336273#16336273). I still don't understand how to save a word document that I create on my Mac so that I can access it through the cloud on a PC at work.

TS1506 how do i save a word document attached to an email to my iphone

I am trying to save a word document from an email to my iphone 4s.
I have looked on all of the support pages and have found that word . doc is supported but cannot see how i can save it in any way?
I have followed all guidelines but now it is making it hard to either attach a document to my email and save them

In order to save any type of document on your phone you need to have an app that supports that form of document.
There are several word processing apps but I prefer Pages. Buy this app. Once it is on your phone you can tap the Word document in your email to view it then tap the Share icon and Open in Pages.
If you edit the document and email it you will have the choice to send it as a Pages document, a Word document or a PDF file.

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. : )

Easiest way with Acrobat pro, is save the Word document, then convert the document to PDF with Acrobat, rather than doing a "save as" in Word itself to PDF.
Do you have Acrobat full version or Pro?

You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
Default: PDF/A 1-b
Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
Check the following check boxes
View Adobe PDf Results,
Add Document Information,
Rely on system fonts only,
Delete Log files for successful jobs.
Select OK
A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
Hope this will help.

When I save a Word document as a PDF file and open it, some of the boxes around the text don't show

Hello,
I currently have Abobe Reader X (10.1.2) on Windows 7 and I need to save a Word document currently in A3 as a PDF file to print in A4. For some documents I have no problem printing and all of the text, images, boxes, lines etc. all show up no problem, except for 2 documents where there is a problem. The document fits onto the screen perfectly.
Please help! Thanks

Reader is unable to create PDF files. You must be using some other product, and therefore should post your question in that product's forums.

Can't save my Word Document

I am trying to save my Word Document, and it's not saving
whatsoever. What can I do to fix this problem?

Hi all
Colum, I doubt that Peter's info on that page will apply here
because as I understand it, this is a RoboHelp for Word project.
Folks, I know it appears to be a seductive thing to want to
try and do. I'm talking about the desire of "sticking with the
Devil you know" meaning Word.
If you are creating WebHelp output, it would behoove you to
at least give RoboHelp HTML a once over. The editing interface is
very "Word like". You will find that a great many things you
struggle with Word over disappear in RoboHelp HTML.
Just a thought... Rick

Do I need Pages in order to save my word document to the iCloud?

I am new to using iCloud and have been trying to save Word documents to the cloud. Even when the iCloud has been properly activated on my mac, when I try to save my document within Word, I do not get iCloud as an option in the dropdown menu for locations to save to. I wasn't sure if I need to purchase Pages in order to save Microsoft Word documents. That doesn't seem to make sense to me, but I'm not sure what else I might be doing incorrectly.

As long as you are using Mountain Lion (10.8.x) yes, you'll see this:
You will need 2 copies of Pages, one for your Mac and one for the iPad.
