I'm having trouble with my Word 2013 icons

My Word 2013's icons all look bizarre. They are black and look like they have come from the 1990's, apart from the fact that their looks are also not very clear. When I try to change the color of the letters, it doesn't look like it does anything (although
when I print it the color change is there), and when I paste a colorful text it appears black (although, again, when I print it's not black).
I've tried to uninstall it and then install it again, but the same thing happened. Help?

Have you set a high-contrast theme in Windows? Right-click an empty part of the Windows desktop and select Personalize from the context menu to see and select themes.

Having trouble with simple word game, mainly records

OK. I need help with a lot of stuff. This is an applescript I made to be a lot like the game Jotto, except one player. Here it is:
set yescontinue to true
set totallyfinished to false
set tip10jots to false
repeat while totallyfinished is false
repeat while yescontinue is true
set finish to false
set totallyfinished to true
set yescontinue to false
set x to {"abaca", "abaci", "aback"}

set abcde to (random number from 1 to 2)
if abcde is 1 then
set y to (some item of x)
else
set y to (some item of setx2)

end if
else
set yescontinue to true
end if
end repeat

end repeat
end repeat
As you can see, for now I only have 6 sample words to save time compiling and running for now on my bad computer.
I need help creating a record instead of listofrecords, and also if anybody could shorten all the extra code I probably have. I also would like to limit being able to guess fake words, for example guessing aaaaa. Thank you so much, and if you have any ideas to help, please let me know.

Hello
I had fun on this. You may try the following script.
(Please copy the code from this web page, not from subscribed email text)
It has been tested except for the parts using 'do shell script' and 'TextEdit'.
The 'do shell script' is used in looking up dictionary and 'TextEdit' is used in keeping a log.
(Perl code has been tested with MacPerl 5.6.1under OS9.1.)
You may use any dictionary file that contains words (one word per paragraph delimited by LF) encoded in UTF-8. (For code points in U0000..U007F, UTF-8 is identical to ASCII)
By default, it uses /usr/share/dict/words.
Cheers,
H

I'm having trouble opening a word document on my new Macbook Pro. I opened it with no problems on my iPhone5. I tried using TextEdit and OpenOffice. Thanks!

I'm having trouble opening a word document on my new Macbook Pro. I opened it with no problems on my iPhone5. I tried using TextEdit and OpenOffice. Thanks!

I open Word documents on my Mac using Pages and textedit without any problems.
I also have a copy of OpenOffice and it can also open Word documents without any problems.
Could you please provide more details on exactly what you mean when you say you having troubles opening Word documents? What kind of troubles?

My Macbook with 10.6.8 is having trouble with certain applications- Word will not open, and text edit or pdf will not print.

My Macbook (13 inch 2008) running OS 10.6.8 is having trouble with some applications. Word will not even open. I cannot print from text edit or Preview or Adobe. Excel sometimes opens but very slow. What could be wrong? I have repaired permissions, used an antivirus program, deleted some old MS fonts, and still no change. I have 1 G RAM and there seems to be plenty available and I have 50 G of hard drive space empty.

Well, first 1gb of Ram is not plenty. It's the absolute bare minimum just to run OS X 10.6.8. The MS Office applications are ram hogs also. I would recommend three things.
1. Get more ram.
2. Reinstall and update your MS Office applications.
3. Reinstall Snow Leopard.
If you're not familiar with Activity Monitor you might have a look at this link and you'll be able to judge your ram situation a little better.

Having trouble with the highlights

I have Samsung Galaxy S3 with Android 4:3
I am having trouble with the highlight feature. When I highlight a word or a sentence Adobe Reader highlights it without a problem yet I cannot see all the highlighted parts of the pdf file as a list. Thus I cannot jump to different highlighted parts of the document.
When I bookmark a page for example I can see all the bookmarked pages under a list so it allows me to jump through.
How can see and jump between all highlights and annotations? Thanks

Adobe Reader presently doesn't allow you to see all the highlighted text at a single place. We have noted down your request, and will update you if it becomes available in one of our future releases.

Newbie having trouble with template highlight (button)

Stupid question I'm sure, but for the life of me I can't figure it out:
When using a template, if I change anything at all about the TYPE related to a button, or the size of the button/text group, the corresponding HIGHLIGHT gets freaky. I can't for the life of me figure out how to control where that highlight appears, or even it's size, etc. So I have these beautiful DVD menus that are marred by weird highlight bars--some of them run across two buttons.
(Yes, I figured out how to make the highlights invisible, but that defeats the whole point of course.)
Hope my question wasn't confusing. Any help would be wildly appreciated. Thanks...

Okay, let me pose a theory: Is it possible my installation is having trouble, in other words is what I'm seeing NOT normal?
Can anyone verify (it would only take a few minutes) my findings? Here are the steps: Create a brand-new project using (just to make sure we're on the same page) the Apple template called "Wedding Classical Index." Next, resize any one of the main elements (labeled "button 1," etc.). OR, change the text to two words, or modify the text size/font. When finished, hit the Simulate button and mouse over the button you modified.
Does the highlight look normal, e.g., underneath the text, etc., or has it moved to the side of the text, or changed into a vertical line, or worse?
I just want to verify that my installation isn't being screwy. Thanks to the kind soul who takes a minute to help me out with this so I can move on...

Having trouble with iPad mini doing things on its own 2014 anybody got any results

Having trouble with iPad mini doing things on its own bought dec 2013 been great up until two weeks ago then it types on its own moves between apps flicks pages in my book. Does anyone know how to fix this.?

Probably a hardware problem. Call a Apple Support or take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

I'm having trouble with how the font/font size appears once its in InDesign.

Help! @I'm having trouble with how the font/font size appears once its in InDesign. It looks good in Word, then I make my PDF, place it and it suddenly looks different. It's frustrating because not all of the documents look that way, creating a very inconsistent look. What am I doing wrong?

Sure. The first screen shot is the PDF after it's placed in InDesign. The second one is the PDF.

Why am I having trouble with my keyboard?

Ever since the IOS 6 update, I have been having trouble with my keyboard. I type a word and press space bar, then type the next word but it doesn't recognize the fact that I typed the space bar. It lights up as a mispelled word. It has done with numerous times. I then have to go back, highlight the area, and choose two separate words when the auto-correct options appear. It is very annoying. Anyone else having this issue????

If the App store app is crashing see:
IOS 6 App store crash: Apple Support Communities
For othe other problems try:
Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I'm having trouble with auto-correct in Pages

I am having trouble with auto-correct spelling in Pages. I have read a past discussion of this in which I believe the last comment was made in 2012. (I have the latest Macbook Pro purchased Dec 2012 and it is totally updated.) The problem is just with one word, as far as I can tell. It seems that perhaps the older problem of contractions has been resolved except for one word: "hasn't". Auto correct insists that it should be "hans't". I follwed the suggestions offered in the previous discussion about using SYMBOL AND TEXT SUBSTITUTION to correct the word but it hasn't worked. Do I just have to live with this? Surely there is a way to fix this problem? I really like using the auto-correction and would hate to have to stop using it just for one word. Thanks in advance for your help.

It should work if you have a Symbol and Text Substitution set for hans't → hasn't. Are you sure you have this substitution checked, or Symbol and Text Substitution checked overall?

Hello Sue,
I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!

I'm having trouble with something that redirects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC. It's called the 'going on earth' virus. Do you have a fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?

I'm having trouble with a virus or something which affects Google search results when I use Firefox on my PC ...
When I search a topic gives me pages of links as normal, but when I click on a link, the page is hijacked to a site called 'www.goingonearth.com' ...
I've done a separate search and found that other users are affected, but there doesn't seem to be a clear-cut solution ... (Norton, McAfee and Kaspersky don't seem to be able to detect/fix it).
I'd like to continue using the Firefox/Google combination (nb: the hijack virus also affects IE but not Safari) - do you have a patch/fix that could rectify the vulnerability in your software?
thanks

''' "... vulnerability in your software?" ''' 
And it affects IE, too? Ya probably picked up some malware and you blame it on Firefox.

I am having trouble with my Mac Mini's ethernet connection. Defining a new network interface shows no ethernet adaptor. Reloading SL from DVD repaired. But SL update lost ethernet again. Will Lion Fix?

I am having trouble with my mac mini ethernet. It had been working for weeks after an update to SL 10.6.8.
Once it went out and i repaired it by defining a new connection from System Preferences ->Network->(left panel service, +).
But yesterday, after a power up. my ethernet was not working again. I tried this old trick to repair it, but the interface choices
listed for '+' a new service did not include Ethernet any more. And the Utilities->System Profiler->Ethernet Cards shows
no ethernet available.
As a last ditch effort i reloaded my original SL from DVD. (I think it was version 10.6.4 but i could be mistaken on the version).
The ethernet worked! But KeyNote wasn't going to work because apparently the version i purchased depends on 10.6.8.
So I upgraded again to SL 10.6.8 (Plus some other updates like AirPort which i don't use).
Now the Ethernet is not working again. I see the same symptoms as before with the Ethernet seeming not installed.
Is this a problem seen by others?
Would going to Lion fix the problem?
Could AirPort actually be the culprit and not SL?
If i stay with my original SL, would i need to repurchase a version of KeyNote for the older version of SL?

Have you reset the SMC?
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
While you're at it, resetting the PRAM won't hurt anything and 'might' help is SMC reset didn't work (PRAM does some port control):
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Something else you might try .... you don't say how you're updating to 10.6.8, however, if you're using Software Update, you might try downloading the 10.6.8 combo update, which contains all updates to 10.6. Sometimes, Software Update doesn't work quite right, and installing the combo update fixes that. Download the update from Apple's download site at http://support.apple.com/downloads/ , using Disk Utility repair permissions, apply the combo update, then repair permissions again.

I am having trouble with some of my links having images. For example, Foxfire has a picture that looks like a small world. The links in question are blank.

I am having trouble with my links/websites having images attached to them. The place where the image should be is blank. For example, AARP has an A for its image. My storage website has a blank broken box where the image should be. I forgot I had trouble and had to reset Foxfire, this problem occurred after that reset.

cor-el,
Mixed content normally gives the world globe image, unless you are using a theme that uses a broken padlock instead. Maybe the gray triangle means invalid? I came across that in a few themes (what is invalid was not made clear), but those were not using triangle shapes to indicate that.
I came across that mention in one of the pages you posted:
* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Site+Identity+Button
I cannot attach a screenshot because I have not seen a triangle of any kind in my address bar.
