I have just managed to save some work to an 'office 2011' file, I don't know where this has come from but my work has now vanished

Hi,
I'm really hoping that someone can help with this!
I just saved a few word documents on my macbook pro and hadn't noticed that (for some reason) the file destination to save to had changed to 'office 2011'. This isn't a file that I've created and my work is now nowhere to be seen :-(.
I've gone into my library > application > support > microsoft > office autosave but nothing is there.
HELP!
Thanks,
Danielle

Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.

I just bought my macbook and ever 15 minutes there like bubble sound coming from my macbook which is very annoying and I don't know where this sound coming from?

every once in a whiel, randomly, my macbook retnia display which I just purcheased will make a weird bubble sound. it's not the sound that it makes when you send a text message, it's some other sound.
but it happens randomly. i can't figure out what's triggering it. and nothing happens when it makes this sound. the screen doesn't turn back on, i get no notification, no text, no email, no messages from anything, nothing from any of my apps
i have no idea what this random sound is. does anyone have any idea what this is or what it means?

If you just purchaed it, you are still under warranty, (for 1 year) take it in and have it checked out. This is probably just a setting, but your desciption is difficult to follow.
You are still under warranty, take advantage of it!
Do you have any reminders set?

If you take a screenshot (Press the home button and Lock button at the same time), does it appear on the screenshot? Zoom in on the screenshot and see if it's still there.
If not, then your display is failing. I would recommend taking it to an Apple Store if you can, if you can't then to an authorised Apple reseller.
If it does appear on the screenshot when you zoom into the spot, then it's a really weird software issue! You might have to backup and restore the device.
Let me know!

How do you sync contacts with gmail, not other place on computer? I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from?

I don't know where the contacts came from on that are now on my new phone. There are way too many and it is not my list of contacts I have on gmail. Where else is this from? I spent a LONG time on gmail going through my list of contacts. There were about 400 and I got it down to about 90. When I went to sync my new phone, ALL 400 synced.
Thank you for any help!

Sorry for the repeat...new here. OBVIOUSLY.

What do you see on the screen when it doesn't boot??
Gray, Blue or White screen at boot, w/spinner/progress bar
or
Folder with question mark issue?
How did you restore from your old hard drive?
Technically all that was needed was to use Migration Assistant on the fresh OS X install to migrate users accounts and programs to the new machine.
You can use a SATA to USB adapter to connect the old drive if you want to go that way and start over with a fresh install again on the new drive.
Reset your Mac

TS4559 I don't know if this was already asked, but every time I put my headphones on my iMac OSX (2007 version) I always hear it on a different output then my headphones. But they worked last time... I just don't know what the problem is...

It just happen to me today... while I was listening to music it went to a different output. But strangely... it works on my ipad 2 wifi.
If this happen to you PLEASE reply. Thank You.

Hello pagtaljav1,
It sounds like you're not hearing audio from you headphones when connected to your iMac. You may want to check the output settings in System Preferences. You can find the steps to do this in this article:
OS X Mountain Lion: Change your computer’s sound output device
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11235
If the setting is correct there, and you are still not getting audio from the headphones, I recommend resetting the NVRAM / PRAM:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Just downloaded onto mac but need not get a prompt about applications folder - don't know where this is and how to pull icon down to menu bar

Just need help completing download

I have the disks that came with my MBPro and they are 10.5.x. I'm at the "Do You Already Own A Mac" screen since they gal on the phone said to call her when I got to that point. But of course, she has gone home for the day! So - I dun't know WHAT quite to do next?
I have TM backup of my entire MBPro internal hard drive so that's not a problem. But this was a brand new hard disk they said they put into my Mac to replace the original one which they said was f'd up!
I am so wiped out from all of this Macintosh nonsense. It took me an entire weekend to download the updates to all of Apple's software last time they had me do this. The amount of time I've been down is just unbelievable to me given my history with Apple being such a solid, easy to use, and great system.
Can a 3rd party backup software like WD's really cause this much havoc???

My iPod is up to a 4.1 ios, and it won't update to a 5.1 which I need for some of my apps for school. It keeps saying that my internet connection is bad; but, it works just fine. What do I need to do?

If you get a network timeout error, then disabling the computer's security software duirng the download and update usually resovles that error.
If that is not the error what is the wording of the error message.
Note that only a 3G or 4G iPod can go to iOS 5. A 2G iPod can only go to iOS 4.2.1

Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears: "The licensing of the product does not work" Fault 6 How should I proceed? Have the program installed on only one computer.

Mac, have just upgraded to Yosemite and when I shall open Photoshop (CS4), the following message appears:
"The licensing of the product does not work"
Fault 6
How should I proceed?
Have the program installed on only one computer.

Download the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.
Run the License Service Update.
Mac OS X 10.7 and above:
a. Double-click the LicenseRecovery111.dmg It will extract the folder. Open the folder.
b. Double-click your Hard Drive.
c. Double-click Applications.
d. Double-click Utilities.
e. Double-click Terminal.
f. Type sudo python
Note: There is a space following “python”. Do not press Return.
g. Drag LicenseRecover.py from the LicenseRecovery111 folder onto the Terminal Window and press Return.
It should look like this:
h. Enter your administrator user name and password when prompted and click OK.
(Note: the cursor will not move and you will not see stars or dots, just enter your password anyway.
i. Let the script run, it will tell you when it is finished. Quit terminal and restart Photoshop

When I click the Sections button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it. I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back.

In Pages when I click the 'Sections' button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it? I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'. Rdal

Roger,
The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

I have very thin, colored lines running vertical on my desktop monitor screen. I don't know where they come from or how to get rid of them. I started with one and now have three. Can anyone give me some insight about what to do in getting rid of them?

I have very thin, colored lines that have shown up on my IMac monitor screen. I don't know where they came from or how to get rid of them. I'm concerned now because I started with one and now have three. Does any know why this occurs or how to get rid of them?

I got an address from Applecare, although I can't place my hand on it right now. I didn't bother persuing the letter route myself as I didn't expect much. I know that the location was Cork, Ireland though as that where the UK Applecare is based as far as I'm aware. The best thing to do is to call Applecare (if it's free) and discuss the issue. State that you are not happy wit the fact that you will have to pay to have the problem resolved especiiay if it is an ongoing problem that has not been resolved. I ended up speaking to a senior manager of the Applecare team who then proceeded to tell me about mailing in my grievence to customer services division or something like that.
If I can find the address I may post it if I'm allowed.
In the case of age, Schools usually have a 5-year life-cycle as they tend to be used differently than consumer machines, i.e. being used constantly on a daily basis for at least 12 hours with no break. you would expect issues to appear after a few years, but I expect problems that arise through defects to be resolved and stay resolved. As I mentioned we had machines for around 2 years before the lines appeared and sent them to be repaired. I'm happy with that. What I am unhappy about is the fact that the problem has reappeared exactly in the same way and now I'm left with around 7 machines that I either pay loads to repair or, the more likely replace the machines with newer ones since the age is now big enough to warrant the replacement.
Sorry for the lengthy moan, but these are the reasons I purchased Apple ahrdware in the first place to avoid the "not our problem" stance some PC vendors usually take, similar to the Dell monitors thread mentioned in here somewhere.

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?

I have Prem. Elements 12. I am trying to add audio media. I know where the audio files are located (using GET INFO while in iTunes), and when I try to add certain audio files, some are accepted and some are not. In one case, when I opened a particular folder, the song was not listed, even tho' the song is there when using Windows Explorer. This happens with mp3 and mp4 and just wav files. Some audio are accepted, most are not. I get that codec is not installed error message, too.
