Icons and functionality missing in Office for MAC

Hi, just wanted to see if anyone has seen or heard of this issue and if they may have a solution.
First in office in the project gallery its missing the notebook icon. In Entourage its missing the mail, address book, notes, calendar etc. icon, unless you put the pointer over where the icon is suppose to be, then it appears.
For the functionality, there is no arrow next to the inbox in Entourage to collapse all the subfolders.
Any answers?

Thank you for the links! I found another forum, and the problem is only apparent in the recent Mac edition in combination with Office for Mac (2006); a lot of users have the same problem and instead of the easy "copy and drag and paste"-method, we have to take the extra step of first dragging the pictures to a file, and then inserting it in the word document or the powerpoint.
I found a lot of reactions on several discussion groups. I quote another Apple- answer below:
Hi Dale,
The quick answer is to not paste pictures into PowerPoint. Instead, use
Insert > Picture > From File using the menus or click the Insert Picture
button on the Drawing toolbar.
For a more detailed explanation have a look at this page:

  • How do I sync from ical and address book to office for mac 2011

    How do I sync from ical and address book to office for mac 2011 in outlook?  icloud is turned on, sync is turned on in outlook and in itunes.  Email working fine in outlook, but no contact or calendar information.  Microsoft said it is an Apple issue.  They said icloud is not compatible with Outlook.  I have OS Lion if you need to know that.

  • I am a new mac owner and want to purchase Office for Mac.  Thought I was told it could be purchased thru the mac store for approx $80 (word, excel, powerpoint).  It is priced at $150 at the mac store.  Any advice?

    I am a new mac owner & want to purchase Office for Mac.  Thought I was told I could get it through the mac store for approx. $80 (word, excel, powerpoint).  However, it looks like the cost is actually $150.  Is there a better deal?

    Here it is from a trusted vendor of Mac goodies for US$100:
    Microsoft Office 2011 Mac: Home/Student Edition. Single User License.
    I also see the Mac version offered about every other week at Staples for about the same price.
    Understand that the 2011 "Home/Student" edition does not come with a mail client.MS dropped Entourage with the 2011 version.
    I am running Office 2008 on a Late 2010  i7 Quad iMac and a Core 2 Duo MBP (both are at OS 10.6.8) and I have no complaints. If you want the Entourage Mail client, you can still get Office 2008 from the vendor I linked.
    I wonder if someone quoted the US$80 price thinking of Apple iWorks.

  • Have loaded lion and now cant access office for mac or apple works as it says it does not support power pc applications, how can I acces them or better still reinstate them please

    Have loaded lion and now can't access office for mac or apple works as it says it does not support power pc applications, how can I acces them or better still reinstate them please?

    MS-Office for Mac versions 2004 and older do not run in Lion since these are PPC-apps for which Apple has dropped support.
    Free alternatives to open Word and Excel files:
    NeoOffice http://www.neooffice.org/neojava/en/index.php
    OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/
    Or get the 2011 MS-Office

  • I am running Os X Lion with Home and student office for Mac. My MS Outlook Mail programme has picked up a virus I think. The programme is sending out multiple mails to addresses that I have no knowledge of.

    Hi all: Wonder if any one can advise.
    My Mac is running Lion OS X 10.7.5 and I have MS Office for Mac (Student and Home) installed.
    A couple of days ago I noticed 14 emails in my inbox and others in Spam and Junk with a header explaining that these mails are undeliverable; they are mail addressees that I have never heard of.
    I have installed and run (I think correctly), ClamXav but it is still happenning.
    How can I rectify / rid my Mac / mail programme of this problem?
    Regards
    PS

    Check your "Sent Mail" folder to see if any of those messages were sent from it. If not then they just spoofed your address. If any are found there then your account was hacked (almost certainly on your ISP's mail server) and you need to change password and/or e-mail address.

  • Kernel Panics : Office for Mac or Safari ?

    Hi everyone,
    Happy New Year 2015 for a start !
    I have been experiencing Kernel panics with my mac book pro mid 2010radomly for a few months now but I am not very good in reading the reports provided once the mac reboots. I observed that Powerpoint and Safari are usually the softwares I am using when experiencing the crash.
    Last time, maybe it was because of Word office 2011.
    I migrated to Yosemite 2 months ago (version 10.10.1) and I guess my office for mac is updated : Version 14.4.7. Same thing for Safari (version 8.0.2).
    Here is the report below : Anyone would understand my problem ?
    Thanks in advance to the community.

    Unfortunately, I did not manage to contact them. They more orientated me to do usual tests by myself.
    I have a question for the community, knowing that I have a strong feeling that my problem is due to Powerpoint.
    What do you guys think about uninstall/reinstall Office for Mac 2011 on my macbook pro now that I updated to Yosemite ?
    I would follow this modus operandi : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768

    I would like to get data analysis for solving statistic and making graphs, but this function is not in add-in. How should I do? I also set up microsoft office for mac 2011.

    Microsoft didn't include that with the 2011 version.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and Microsoft Office for Mac 2011

    I do not have Acrobat available in the Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 task bar. (Mac OS 10.8.3)
    I have searched, and my understanding is that these two programs are not compatible. Has a plugin or something been developed to do this?
    What functionality is missed by not having this?
    Thanks,
    Donna

    There's no plugin for the Mac version of Office, but you can still use Acrobat by printing to the PDF Printer to generate a PDF from your Office files.
    (PS - you should post Acrobat-related questions in the Acrobat forums, not the Reader ones)

  • I downloaded Office for Mac 2011, and almost immediately my Yahoo email stopped working, most images were disabled throughout my internet sites, and my bank site reported that I was using a "new computer," which is not true. How can I get my email to work

    I have an iMac version 10.6.8/2.66 GHz Intel Processor and 4 GB memory, with Safari 5.1.10. I had used Office for Mac 2008 but had to upgrade for work. The download (from Amazon) went swiftly, but when I started Word, it did not function too well. Then about an hour later I noticed that my Yahoo email site stopped working, it lost all images and the text just jumbled up on the left side of the screen. No amount of emptying caches or resets/quits/restarts did anything. I called the Internet support, and they just said it was my iMac that had the problem. I have been reduced to using MacMail as my email, but this is tenuous, as my Yahoo account keeps holding things up and constantly asking me for my password (and sometimes it does not accept it). How can I get my computer back?

    The path may be long and tedious, grasshopper.
    Actually, the download of Office 2011 for Mac probably was not legal and may have contained bugs or other things meant to make it unstable, or invite a host of issues. The usual path would be Office 2011 for Mac on DVD so you could reinstall it and add the extras from the disc as needed; or fix the installation later on. The updates for security were downloads from Microsoft servers. You'd need a legitmate version with pass code.
    Options for Mac and office-like application suites include Libre Office, NeoOffice, and these run free. The latter supports up to Mavericks. 10.9.1 now. They have a word, excel, and other parts a lot like the real office.
    If you have a working clone of the system prior to installing the Office 2011 for Mac download and any subsequent and perhaps unseen extras, you could revert to it simply by restarting the computer from the clone, where it resides in externally enclosed self-powered hard disk drive, of a type known to support OS X clones... With ports to help work with most modern Macs. FireWire + USB. Then, clone it back w/ carbon copy cloner.
    Short of that, perhaps someone will see your post and offer some indepth method of hunting down bugs via use of Console logs; and maybe booting into Terminal utility to use unix code. It can be rather involved. Maybe Linc Davis will offer some detailed reply that will invite you to read carefully and try it.
    I've given up using computers long ago.

  • Upgraded Office for Mac 2011 to 14.1.4 and now Outlook will not sync with iCal and Contacts

    I have upgraded my iMac to Microsolf Office 2011 version 14.1.4 and now Outlook will not sync the calender contents and contacts to iCal and Address Book. Prior to the installation of 14.1.4 all worked well. Discovered the problem when I sync'ed my iPad and the addresses and calendar went missing. New entries to the calendar will sync. Help.

  • Windows compatibility; Delete key, view, Office for Mac and  Hassels

    Dear Friends
    I liked the style of the Mac powerbook, and after years of happy use of a Samsung notebook, I decided to take the plunge and buy a Mac. I amlo liked the idea of contributing to diversiy and not putting all my bucks in Gates's basket! People assured me there would be no compatibility problems bwteeen Office for PC and Office for Mac. So I moved from PC to Mac, but have had lots of problems. I have a powerbook 12". My main issues are that:
    1. Word and Powerpoint for Mac do not always convert properly when I take my files to work where I have to use PC. I find editing in powerpoint for Mac less easy than PPT for windows. Before an important presentation at an international conference recenly, the file I worked on on my Mac came out all funny when I loaded it onto the windows laptop that was already set up. I lost a good five minutes ******* around beore an international audience. Someitmes formatting in Word for Mac jumps and highlights and bold and bullet points go all srtrange or are lost when I take the file to work.
    2. The keyboard of the Mac is frustrating. I usually delete rightward; to do this on a Mac I have to hold down Fn and then delete, i.e. two finger operation. I always screw up since I am so used to the delete key on my PC and my brain gets in a twist. Is there a way I can change this?
    3. The power book is quite heavy (a simple moan as I travle a lot).
    4. Word, PPT and internet pages do not cover the whole screen, just the left half to three quarters, with a strip of unused screen on the right. I have been unable to make word for Mac ect cover the whole screen, so I always have to adjust the view size and then half the text is cut off. I would like to see the whole screen used. This is frustrating as the Mac has a kind of grainy screen.
    Any suggestions?
    Chris

    1. For problems related to Microsoft Office you should post your questions to Microsoft's own Mac discussions:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/community/community.aspx?pid=newsgroups
    2. If you want to "forward-delete" on a Mac without hitting the function key, then you'll have to purchase a full size Apple USB keyboard.
    3. Sorry. Can't help with that one. Maybe you should have bough a ligther 15" Powerbook.
    4. Again, sorry, but that's not a bug, it's a learning curve. Longtime Windows users seem to be more often than not used to working with applications and windows that cover the whole screen. Mac users generally don't. Just drag the windows over to the right or click the green maximize button at the top left of each window.

  • Hi, in our Enterprise environment, we have a single mac with Mavericks version 10.9.2 and Office for Mac 14.4.1. When setting up outlook, we are trying to connect to a mailbox on exchange server 2007.

    Hi, in our Enterprise environment, we have a single mac with Mavericks version 10.9.2 and Office for Mac 14.4.1. When setting up outlook, we are trying to connect to a mailbox on exchange server 2007. We put in the EWS details in the server field since our autodiscover function is not functioning. But still it doesn't work. There are no errors, no popups. We turned on the logging and in the logs, it says a error of -3259. We are stuck and any help will be really appreciated.

    I have a customer experiencing exactly the same issue. Their computer is running Windows 7 Pro with Office 2007 SP3. After seemingly exhausting all troubleshooting options, I backed up their data, formatted the hard drive and performed a clean install of
    Windows and all their applications. It didn't solve the problem!
    What's strange is the customer also has a laptop computer, running the same version of Outlook, and that doesn't experience any problems connecting to Office 365 on the same network.
    My next step is to send the customer a new ADSL modem/router to try.
    I have another customer on Office 365, also running Outlook 2007, and they also experience issues with emails sitting in the outbox while Outlook displays the status message “Outlook is trying to retrieve data from the Microsoft exchange server outlook.office365.com.”
    In this case Outlook doesn't freeze/stop responding, like it does for the first customer I mentioned.

  • Buying a new MAcBook Pro - How do i move files and office for Mac

    I am buying a new MacBook Pro and have a license for my office for Mac 2008. Can I re-install into the new computer or do i need to buy a new license? Also, how do i move all my itunes, photos, and files from one to the other!

    Use TDM for transferring files, drag libraries into folders (iTunes Library into iTunes Folder for example). The Firewire cable will need to be a 6 to 9 pin, or an adapter.
    If you're giving up the pB, De-authorize it for iTunes.
    Don't do applications between G4 and Intel machines, better to reinstall.
    Uninstall Office and use your key on the new Machine. Run Office update.
    Connecting Your PowerBook to Another Computer Using FireWire Target Disk Mode.
    If you want to transfer files between your PowerBook and another FireWire-equipped
    Macintosh computer, or you have a problem that prevents your computer from starting
    up, you can use FireWire Target Disk Mode to connect to another computer. When you
    start up your computer in FireWire Target Disk Mode, the other computer can access
    your PowerBook as if it were an external hard disk.
    Note: When using FireWire Target Disk Mode, it’s a good idea to connect your power
    adapter to the PowerBook.
    To connect your PowerBook to another computer in FireWire Target Disk Mode:
    1 Make sure that your PowerBook is shut down.
    2 Use a FireWire cable to connect your PowerBook to another FireWire-equipped
    computer.
    3 Start up your PowerBook and immediately hold down the T key.
    Your PowerBook display shows the FireWire logo. The other computer’s display shows
    the PowerBook internal hard disk icon. You can now drag and drop files between the
    computers.
    4 When you finish transferring files, drag the PowerBook hard disk icon to the Trash.
    5 Press the power button (®) on the PowerBook to shut it down, and then disconnect
    the FireWire cable.

  • Can I load Office for Mac via the internet?  I own the disks and have only loaded them twice.

    Can I load Office for Mac via the internet?  I own the disks and have only loaded them twice.

    If you are saying that you have one license left of a three license edition MS Office for Mac 2011, then all you have to do is download a MS Office trial for Mac from the MS website. Using the available license registration number, you can activate the downloaded trial and have the same functionality as if you had used the disks and registered with that same number.
