HT4767 cannot open office 2004 with lion

just upgrade to lion and now i cannot open office 2004.  now what?

Hello Zendentity,
Office 2004 is not compatible with OS X Lion.
You can upgrade to Office 2011 or use the free LibreOffice. Compatible with all major competitors' file formats. You can easily import files from Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint and many other formats, and can easily save to Microsoft Office and other formats when needed.

  • Cannot open Office 2004 documents with Office 2011 on Lion Server

    I am in the process of moving our documents from a Tiger server to Lion server.  My users who are using Office 2004 are having no issues, but the users with Office 2011 cannot open any documents with the .doc extension.  I have tried logging on using afp and smb and I get different error messages but no access.  When logging on as smb if I try to double-click I get the file type blocked message.  If I go to File/Open I get the message Word cannot open this document.  The file be in use, etc.  There are no special characters in the file name.  If I try to open a docx document then no problem.  The same problem occurs with xls versus xlsx documents.  Does anyone know if there is something different I should be doing.  Permissions are set for full access.  We have a mix of users with both versions of Office and over 90% of the file server are .doc or .xls documents.  I cannot fully implement until I get this resolved.

    I am having the same problem with UCM 10gr3. Our desktop engineers are doing an enterprise upgrade of MS Office to 2010 and this issue just surfaced. Trish, how do your users authenticate to Beehive? We are using a cusom connector using our AD.

  • Office 2004 w/Lion

    While I know I can't use Office 2004 w/Lion, will I be able to open and read documents that were previously created in Office '04 without purchasing an upgrade of Office?  Will Pages, Numbers, etc. read the old documents or is there some other easy and efficient way to do so should I upgrade to Lion?

    How well iWork will serve your needs depends on a number of factors the most important one, I think, being whether you are mostly consuming or producing documents and the second being the complexity of the documents you use. If you are creating documents that other people will open in Office then you really need Office. If you are creating documents that will be printed or viewed as PDF files, you may be fine with iWork. If the documents you use are complex, that is they use lots of formating, section changes, tables, and graphics files, iWork is less likely to be viable. While I prefer iWork to Office and do more than 80% of my work in it, I find it necessary to have Office on my computer.

  • Cannot open Office 2013 Excel, Word, PPT Files on Network Share

    Cannot open Office 2013 Excel, Word, PPT Files on Network Share
    I am having a problem opening any Office 2013 file when it is located on a network drive. I immediately get the error:  
    "Microsoft Excel cannot open or save any more documents because there is not enough available memory or disk space.
    . To make more memory available, close workbooks or programs you no longer need.
    . To free disk space, delete files you no longer need from the disk you are saving to."
    It only occurs when I try to access the file when it is stored on a network share. I cannot open any word, excel or PPT files located on my file shares.
    I am on Windows 8 (pro), part of a local domain based on Server 2003, and have administrator rights to the domain and the file share where the Excel file resides (and Word files -same problem). If I copy the file locally, I can either open
    it directly, or right-click, go to Properties and 'un-block' the file and then open it. But it is impractical to keep doing this, as I edit different files from the directory tree all day.
    I have bing'd and google'd this extensively, and the only answers I come up with do not work, such as going into the DCOM config system and changing the user from interactive to launching user, or vice versa, or even using a specific user - mine
    with the password. Since the product is so young there aren't a lot of posts on this, and nothing has improved the situation.
    Can you add any insight to this? I really want to use Office 2013, but this is such an obstacle I'm going to have to downgrade if this problem cannot be resolved. Thank you very much for any help you can offer.
    Evan

    Dear Evan,
    If DCOM config solution did not work, I'd suggest narrow down the problem by trying to access another network share on another server, try to open an Office file there, do we still have the error? It could help us determine if the issue is on the client
    machine or the server side.
    Best regards,

    Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working

    Which Operating system you are using?
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)] and then try to open the file.

  • Cannot open pdf files with Firefox's built-in pdf viewer

    This just started (I think) with Firefox 37.01. This is on Win7-X64. I cannot open pdf files with the Firefox built-in pdf viewer. If I click on the file or try to open it from within Firefox, it brings up a "opening filename.pdf" message. If I select the "Open with" radio button as 'Firefox (default),' it just keeps looping on this process; it never opens. In Tools => Options => Applications, Portable Document Format (PDF) is indicated as 'Preview in Firefox.' I've never had any other PDF viewer installed on this computer. I've tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, but it still doesn't work. I searched for solutions but haven't found any for this specific issue.
    Thanks for the help.

    Hello,
    Have you tried, to start Firefox in safemode you can do so by following these steps
    '''If Firefox is open,''' you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    * Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    '''If Firefox is not running,''' you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".
    ;[[Image:SafeMode-Fx35]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.

    Why can't I open Quark 8 with Lion? How can I de activate Lion?

    Hi David,

    Hmmm, I might be a little wrong in my earlier statement.
    Yes, QuarkXPress 7.01 (and higher), released August 2006, and QuarkXPress 8.x are both universal binary builds. QuarkXPress 9 is actually Intel-only.
    And though v8 and v9 should under Lion, Quark will officially support Lion with QuarkXPress 9.1, a free update to Version 9, scheduled for end of this month.
    Version 9.1 will also contain App Studio to export rich designs for the iPad.

  • Cannot open project file with write access...

    I have seen that this problem has been reported before but have yet to find a solution.
    I have my project file in an external hard drive.  When I plug the hard drive to another computer and want to save it I get this message:
    "Cannot open project file with write access.  The file may be locked or you don't have permission to write to this location.  Select Save As..."
    I don't want to Save As because other projects make reference to this file and also my Encore file will be messed up.
    FYI both computers use Windows 7.
    Any solutions?

    Right click on the folder in Question and select properties. Then select the security tab. Make sure you add everyone to the user list. You do that by selecting edit and then add. Type in everyone in the object section and hit ok. Then select the everyone user and checkmark the Full control. Hit Apply and it will adjust the permissions for the folder and subfolders and files.

    This is the error you are getting when you are opening the published content on web. This is a bug, but you can use the below fix.
    Open the publish/web/index_edge.js and remove the "use strict"; statement at the beginning.
    This will fix the problem. We will address this issue in the next release.
