I cannot open the word or PPT documents on windows explorer

I have set up WD My Cloud on my Mac and PC (windows 7).
I am having a problem when I am trying to remotely access the Word and PPT documents on PC (Windows explorer console)... when I double click on a specific word or PPT I get the message: "The server wdmycloud-device 2443682 wd2go is asking for your username and password. The server reports it is from Device Driver".  I fill in the My Cloud username and password in the pop-up window....but nothing happens?!??" I would highly appreciate any feedback.   

This is a known issue. See the following WD Suupport link for more information. Microsoft Office documents in a device connected through WD My Cloud Remote Web Access cannot be opened The easy workaround to this issue is to use the WD My Cloud Desktop application to open the file into their Microsoft Office application, then edit, then save any Microsoft Office files that are already stored on the WD My Cloud. One obviously will have to copy the Microsoft Office files they want to work on to their WD My Cloud first. The following link, while for the WD My Book Live and from 2012, may (or may not) also work on the WD My Cloud but I have not tried it. It involves using SSH to setup the same username/password one uses on their Windows PC. I typically copy the content to the WD My Cloud then use the WD My Cloud Desktop app remotely to open, edit and save the document to the My Cloud drive. WD2go (webDAV) and MS Office 2013

  • I can open hotmail but cannot open the email, it works fine in Internet Explorer, it seems as if the problem is with Java. I am using the latest version of Java, Help!!

    I can sign into my Hotmail account and see emails but cannot open the email. I have tried to open the Java consul but it won't open. I can open emails OK in Internet Explorer. Any ideas??

    You said you tried the recommended solution, but didn't mention what that solution was. Try, from the Firefox menu bar:
    <br /><br />
    Tools -> Options -> Content
    where you will find an option to block pop-up windows. If that box is checked but there are sites from which you would like to allow pop-up, click the button "Exceptions..." to add sites to your exception list.

    Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
    If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    PowerPoint is not an Apple product and it seems a lot of people around here avoid Office.

  • I recently updated to the OSX 10.8.3 Operating Sistem.  I am writing a book and now cannot open any word document I've created.  Could not find a newer version of the Microsoft Word Processing Program.  Is Pages the next thing? Can I recover my documents?

    I recently updated to the OSX 10.8.3 Operating Sistem.  I am writing a book and now cannot open any word document I've created with the old system.  Could not find a newer version of the Microsoft Word Processing Program.  Is Pages the next thing? Can I recover my documents?  How?

    I'm in the same boat: new to OS X and Mac, and in the middle of a book. I switched because I heard about the the ease of using Mac, but so far, for me, it's been a nightmare. I bought 2011 Office Mac and hate everything about it, the most recent being the inability to open or cut or paste any of my original word files. I understand that this could have easily been done with earlier versions, but not Mountain Lion (which I learned is what OSX is.) Since I work with language, I am amazed at the assumptions of the Apple community. It helps to use common language and explain even the basics.  
    So all the helpful hints to use the latest version of Office Mac are to no avail. Now what?

    Word can't open or does it open but you can't open documentts?
    If you have Office does Excell or Power Point open? If they do you can perhaps check for updates with either of them: Help > Check for Updates. You can also try to reinstall Office with your installation disks. Don't delete Office, just try to install it again.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First of all, check that you are looking for your USB drive in the correct place. To do it, first connect the USB drive. Then, open a Finder window (press the left icon of Dock) and choose your USB drive on the Finder sidebar, under "Devices". Finally, just copy the documents you need to the internal disk.
    If you want to show the USB drive in Desktop, open Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > General, and tick "External drives"

  • Mac Word 2008 - hyperlink message "Word cannot open the specified file"

    I'm using WordMac 2008 version 12.2.5 and after following detailed instructions on how to hyperlink chapters in a Table of Contents to their respective chapters in a book, I can only get the message "Word cannot open the specified file".
    Any ideas what could be wrong?
    My OSX is 10.5.1.
    The instructions I followed are pasted below and are copied from the Smashwords Style Guide: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/52
    START OF PASTE FROM SMASHWORDS STYLE GUIDE:
    How to create a linked Table of Contents. Consider this feature in “beta.” My
    thanks to Smashwords author Cheryl Anne Gardner for sharing these tips below,
    which I have augmented based on my own experience adding a ToC to the Style
    Guide (woo hoo!).
    By adding a linked table of contents, you can help readers navigate your
    document. This is especially useful for non-fiction. Most fiction doesn’t
    need it. If you follow the instructions below, the ToC should work in your
    EPUB, MOBI and PDF files, but it will not work in our other formats.
    First, create your table of contents where you want it by typing it out. Make
    sure the text is normalized just like the rest of your Smashwords’ Word
    document. Example:
    Contents
    Chapter 1
    Chapter 2
    Chapter 3
    Chapter 4
    Etc.
    Next, we are going to create the BookMarks. In Word 2000, 2003 and 2007, the
    Booksmark function is under the Insert tab. Go through your document, and at
    each Chapter Start or Indexed item, you will highlight it and then select
    Insert: bookmark. Name your bookmark corresponding to the Chapter/Indexed
    item and then click add. It’s very important to use the first word of your
    heading you’re linking to, because later on, when you add the hyperlinks,
    Word displays the bookmark shortcuts in alphabetical order. With many
    bookmarks, I found many of my bookmarks weren’t labeled properly, so it was
    tough to link to the correct bookmark. If you want to link to a chapter named
    How to Publish Ebooks, I’d recommend naming your bookmark
    “HowToPublishEbooks” to make it easy to locate. If you instead name it,
    “publishebooks,” you’ll frazzle your brain and make mistakes.
    Repeat the process above for every Chapter Start as well as for other matter
    in the book like index, bibliography, epilogue, prologue, etc. I didn’t link
    to every section in the Style Guide, because otherwise the ToC would have
    been three pages long. This is your call.
    Next, return to your table of contents and highlight the word “Contents.”
    Click insert, bookmark, and label this last bookmark “Contents”. Formatting
    note: Bookmarks cannot have spaces or odd characters. If instead of
    “Contents” you called the label in the document Table of Contents, as I did,
    then when you insert the bookmark, name the bookmark “TableofContents,” one
    word, or “toc.”
    Next, add the hyperlinks to your Chapter Starts. In your table of contents,
    if Chapter 1 is called Chapter 1, then highlight Chapter 1 and then click
    insert Hyperlink. As you can see in the Style Guide, I tried to use more
    descriptive labels. In Word’s Hyperlink menu on the left hand side, select
    “Place in this document.” You will now see your bookmarks listed in the main
    window. Select Chapter1 bookmark (or whatever you labeled it) and then click
    ok. Do this procedure for every chapter and piece of matter in the table of
    contents.
    Final step. Now you can link back to the Table of contents. Move through your
    document to each indexed item or Chapter start and highlight it. Then click
    insert, hyperlink, and then select “Place in this document.” When the
    bookmarks are showing in the main window, select the bookmark labeled
    “Contents,” assuming that’s what you named your Table of Contents. Do this
    for each and every chapter and or indexed item.
    After you are done, all your links will be underlined. You will need to test
    and make sure you linked everything properly. In most Word versions, you just
    click on the hyperlink to test. In Word 2007, you may need to Ctrl-Click each
    hyperlink and make sure it takes you where you need to go in the document.
    Advice: Word has an automatic ToC generation feature under the reference tab.
    Do not use this. It uses automated headings and formatting to generate the
    ToC and this will un-normalize your text and cause font conversion issues in
    your Smashwords files.

  • XML Report output giving error "word cannot open the file because....

    Hi All,
    Greetings!
    I have a standard report, 'Payables Posted Invoice Register".
    The report was going in to warning beacuse of some Invalid characters in the Data.
    I corrected the invalid characters and then ran the report ; it completed fine.
    But now when I try to open the report output, the output is not getting open but its allowing me to save the file.
    When I save it on my local machine and try to open it, I am getting an error as "word cannot open the file because it is larger than 512 megabytes".
    The document size showing is 664MB when I saved it on my machine. And the output type of the report is RTF and not PDF.
    Can anybody please help?
    Thanks,

  • Unable to Open the Word Document

    Hi Experts,
    I have a scenario to generate word document with the information comming from R/3 into bookmarks located in the document. This we are doing with WordML. We have uploaded WordML templates to server and at the run time we are getting the content from those templates replacing book marks with corresponding data comming from R/3.
    Once we replace all those book marks and we are writing into another ".doc" file and opening the same ".doc" file in another window.
    This functionality (opening document in another window) is working fine in my system (runnig with MicroSoft Word2003). Where as in another systems (runnig with MicroSoft Word2007) is not working, in that system it's opening new window and immediatly it's closing with out waiting to chose either "Open", "Save" or "Cancle" option from user.
    Following is the code used for this purpose:
    IWDCachedWebResource cachedWebResource=WDWebResource.getWebResource(inp,WDWebResourceType.DOC);
    cachedWebResource.setResourceName("XXXXXXXXXX.doc");
    wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(cachedWebResource.getURL(),"XXXXXXX.doc").open();
    NOTE: inp is the inputstream which contains the content that has to open in the final ocument.
    Please help me out in where exactly it's causing the problem.
    Thanks,

    Hi Udaya Dumpa,
    I am currently working on a project of my own where I would need to open different versions of Word documents using different version of office.

    I have tested this and so far have no problems.

    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.
