I'm opening up my Mac and it is going straight to Word for Mac and randomly opening multiple pages automatically. I am unable to control it. I think there is a problem. I'm desperate to get into my work - any ideas?

If you close all the windows and quit word, next time you restart, DO NOT check "Reopen windows on login".
Also, check your login items for your user account.

It sounds very very much like the battery. You will need to have it replaced. If you put the failing one in yourself you will need to pay as your Warranty is now void.

Word for Mac and Boot Camp, can I run Word for Mac while running Windows?

Hi There :
I just installed windows xp on my mac book pro. I have Word for Mac already installed. Is there any way by which I can use this Word software while I am running Windows.
Thanks a lot

You'd need to install a virtualization product, such as VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop for Mac. This way, you'd be running Windows alongside Mac OS X. I use VMware Fusion and recommend it. For resource-intensive applications, I boot natively into Windows, but I generally use the virtual machine for convenience sake.

Word For Mac Document Froze over top of another Word For Mac Document

I have two Word for Mac documents open, one with my notes and the other being my essay.
I needed to look up something from another word document that I accessed via an email. I downloaded the attacthed word document and opened it. It opened over top of my notes and froze. I cannot close the document that has froze so I would have to force quit Word for Mac, but that would cost me losing the document it has froze over as I am unable to save it. If this makes sense to anyone, I could really do with a hand, or be redirected where I could get some help!
Thank you!

All I can suggest is do a screen shot
Shift cmd3
or take a selection of what you want by
shift cmd4
save the file then force quick
or press the power button on your machine till it quits.
restart

I can't get my VPN working - Any ideas?

I'm trying to set up a VPN into my work computer. My work computer is running Windows, and I can VPN in using a Windows desktop here, so I know the details are right.
I've set up a PPTP VPN with my work IP address, username and password. It connects, and the internet seems to work over the VPN. I've got Remote Desktop Connection with the Microsoft Office Suite, and I use the IP address of my work computer to connect through that, but it fails. I also can't ping my work computer from my Mac. I've tried CORD, but that also fails. The error message is the standard; "Cannot connect to the windows computer, it may be switched off or unavailable" message.
Am I missing something obvious?
I've got a Macbook Pro. It's running Lion 10.7.5, and RDC is up-to-date.

Converting PDF to Word for Mac version 14

I subscribed to PDF Export and tested it by converting a Word for Mac doc to a PDF and then opening same in Word. My font was Palatino regular. It opened alright, but
Calibri was substituted for Palatino. How can I change this.

I'm glad you've got the problem licked now, or at least understand the limitations on some of your downloaded PDF documents. I suspect those limitations will apply to all documents that are downloaded from the same database or source, and will consistently not apply to documents downloaded from specific other databases, because of differences in the way documents are scanned by different database services.
By way of clarification, let me just point out that what you are calling Acrobat, which used to be called *Acrobat Reader,* is now officially called *Adobe Reader.* Adobe changed the name to distinguish more clearly between Acrobat — an expensive commercial application for +creating, modifying and manipulating+ PDF files — and the freeware Adobe Reader, which only enables you to view them. You'll avoid needless confusion by calling the Reader by its proper name in the future. No big deal, though: lots of people make the same mistake here. (I've explained this distinction to my wife any number of times, and have finally learned not to bother doing it again: she simply doesn't care.)

Does Word for Mac 2011 have an "Overtype" option

I have MS Word for Mac 2011, and I want to be able to use Overtype when dealing with my Word documents but Word for Mac 2011 does not seem to have any option for Overtype. I have seen in on-line forums solutions for the problem in Word
2010 and 2013 but no mention of Word for Mac 2011 solutions. My version of Word does not have an "Options" option under "File", which is the solution to enabling "overtype" put forth for 2010 & 2013 versions.
Is it possible that there is no way to enable "overtype" in Word for Mac 2011?

I'm using Word for Mac 2011 14.3.9

I just googled word for mac 2004 and found the requirements "10.2.8 or higher". There were quite a few changes in Snow Leopard, so a lot of applications which still would work with Leopard no longer work with SL. I also checked this site for SL compatibility and it is not even listed:

I've been working with documents in Pages and recently downloaded Word for Mac. Upon opening Pages documents with Pages, the documents appear corrupt. Much of the font has been replaced with boxed little pictures - yet they are identified as times new roman. What do I do?

Glad that helped.
As time goes by (months or years), keep your eyes on how long Microsoft continues to support Office 2011 for Mac. Eventually you should consider Office 365 or Apple's Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.

Spaces and MS Word for Mac 2008..anyone else having this problem

Hello,
I know MS Word for Mac 2008 isn't a Apple Product but is anyone else having the same problem as me and is there a solution?
I have it set up to be in "spaces 4" and I'll be working on it and suddenly it ends up in space 2, or 1. Really aggravating.
Sean

Yes. Exact same problem. Folks at the MS MacBu are aware of it and say that both Apple and MS are working on it. It's still an incredibly annoying problem, though. In fact, it's even worse than you descrine.
Not only does Word 2008 work with spaces, it makes it impossible to use spaces with other applications. I've tried to leave all Word docxs (and docs) in one space and then put other applications in other spaces. It doesn't work. Word doc(x)s still move around randomly.
It's one thing for Word 08 not to work with spaces, but to actually interfere with other apps that do (did) work with spaces, that's pretty bad. I have to admit I feel quite foolish for purchasing Microsoft Office 2008 (at considerable expense). I do at least hope both companies are working on a fix.
