I cant' use microsoft word after downloading Maverick. What do I do?

If it is Office for Mac 2004, you will need to update to Office for Mac 2008 (unsupported) or Office for Mac 2011 to be compatible with Mavericks. If you already have the latter installed, have you applied all Microsoft updates, and ran Disk Utility to verify/repair permissions on your boot drive?
Using Microsoft’s recommended removal process, you may have to reinstall Office for Mac 2011, and then reapply all outstanding updates. Then repeat the Disk Utility action as mentioned above.

  • I just got a MacBook Air and I want to transfer my documents which I wrote using Microsoft Word 2004 program.  What would be the safest word program to use to be able to continue to work on these documents and share them with people with PCs?

    I have tried to use Pages on my other computer, but not having time to deal with the differences between Pages and Word, I went back to using Word.  I'm not sure what word processing program to load on to this new computer.  Any ideas?

    Have you tried Office 2011 for mac? You can download a 30 day free trial copy here.

    Use Office for Mac 2011.  If you have it, open one of the programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and do Help > Check for Updates from the menu.
    Otherwise, purchase Office 365 and use that.

  • It takes several minutes to turn on my computer, and everytime I try to use Microsoft Word, it freezes. Is this a memory problem? RAM?

    I am usure as to why it is taking up to 10 minutes for my computure to fully load.  I recently deleted a lot of old documents and pictures trying to free up space, but this did not solve anything.  Also, everytime I use microsoft word my computer will type ok for a while and then freeze out of no where. I read on another post that this may have to do with RAM space. I am not quite sure what RAM is though...  I also re-installed Microsoft 2008, but I am still having problems. What might I do?

    Hi
    I would download the free Onyx application (Google will find it) and go through its sequence of maintenance operations: Verify, Maintenance, and Cleaning.
    When its finished all these steps, I'd then reset the SMC and PRAM:

  • Can you use microsoft word on an ipad 2 for free and how?

    HI
    my family and friends tell me I can do my coursework on the ipad2 and use Microsoft word. Is it true and how do I set it up and download it
    thanks
    Shannon

    You can't use Microsoft Word on the iPad because of the different operating system but you can have a look at the following apps.

    If you absolutely must have the Microsoft applications, you can purchase and download them from http://microsoft.com/mac.
    Free software suites LibreOffice and OpenOffice offer similar functionality (word processing and spreadsheets).
    Or you could do worse than look at Apple's Pages, Numbers and Keynote, which should already be installed in your Mac and can export to Microsoft formats if need be.

  • My Iphoto does not work properly, after downloading Mavericks.  How can I fix it ?  loading Mavericks

    My Iphoto does not work properly after downloading Maverick. How can I fix it ?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you mean by not working properly? Explain in detail.
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • I can't use microsoft word with OS X Lion

    I can not use microsoft word with osx lion, why is this and what can I do to use my word software?

    however, all seems ok apart from, every time I open a Word, it opens up every other word doc i've opened that day. not cool when you've opened around 30 documents in a day!
    any ideas or solutions??
    thanks

  • After downloading Maverick, suddenly I'm having problems with new windows (like with Blackboard) closing automatically. Anyone else?

    A few weeks after downloading Maverick, I noticed that some attempts to use software that opens new windows (like Blackboard) are now failing as soon as that window opens. Is this a glitch with Maverick?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.

  • I have always used microsoft word, we just bought a mac, what program should I now use?

    I have always used microsoft word, we just bought a mac, what program should I now use?

    You can use Microsoft Office for Mac, one of the free Office clones such as LibreOffice or Apple's iWork suite of apps. The iWork apps - Keynote (presentation), Pages (word processing & page layout) & Numbers (spreadsheet) are available individually from the Mac App Store. There are also versions for iOS available separately. And, coming this fall, iWork for iCloud.
