If I sent my Microsoft Word icon to the trash by mistake is there anyway to recover it with out an external hard drive ?

I put my Microsoft Word on my desktop, and mistakenly sent it to the trash is there anyway to recover it without having a backup hard drive ?

Drag it out of the Trash, or if you've emptied it, reinstall Word if possible. Even if you need to order replacement install disks, it's probably better and cheaper than attempting recovery.

PDF file showing Microsoft Word icon in library

Hello all,
I've come across a weird issue in a Sharepoint 2010 library. We have a library that contains both WORD documents and PDF files. We have a custom functionality in our implementation that converts the WORD documents to PDF. For one specific document, after
the WORD document was converted to PDF, the converted PDF is still showing the microsoft word icon under document type.
As you can see, the document is clearly a PDF, but it's showing the Word icon. If I click on the document, it opens up as a PDF. Every other PDF document in the library is showing the correct PDF icon except for this one, so it's not an overall icon issue.
Anybody have any ideas on this? Is this something that can be edited for specific files? If not, does anybody have any idea what can cause this?
Thanks!

Hi,
Perform below step for PDF Icon in library.
Configure PDF Icon
- Download PDF Icon from Adobe website: http://www.adobe.com/images/pdficon_small.gif and save it to
Images folder under 14 hive folder <var>(In my case C</var>:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\14\Template\Images)
- Open Command Prompt and type IISRESET -Stop to stop IIS and edit Docicon.xml
- Navigate XML folder from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web máy chủ extensions\14\Template\Xml and open Docicon.xml by NotePad
- Insert <mapping key=”pdf” value=”<var>pdficon_small</var>.gif ” /> within the <ByExtension> section
- Save and Run command IISRESET -Start

Accidentally copied microsoft word icon to desk top. Now program will not work. Error message says cannot be opened because of problem. How do I re-install ?

Drag the Word icon back to where it belongs.
Applications > Microsoft Office 2011 > Put Word there.
I'm assuming you have Office 2011. If you have 2008 there should be a similar location to put Word.

Hey Christian
Thanks I havn't seen that post, busy trying it now but no luck so far.
I defined it in the second one (Content Management - Utilities - MIME Types).
Tried it now in NWA, no luck either . . .
What I noticed is no matted what it is defined as in NWA or Content Management, the properties of the mht file still shows Binary File (application/octet-stream)
Any ideas?

I need a word document generator, that has a bar to enter equations similar to the Microsoft word program. The document needs to be able to be saved as a word document so my professors can open it in windows. HELP!!

Not sure if any of the alternatives to Office (word) for Mac are near the feature set you require.
There are a few listed here at this page, in some ways aren't exactly like Office or Word; the feature you seek may (or may not) exist. I'd try & see about neooffice compatibility...

When attempting to "save as" a word document and selecting micrsoft word as the "save as type", it no longer will save it in a word icon document, the icon is just a blank document symbol and thus cannot email this document as before.

Here are my two cents.
The resources defining the file formats which Pages may import or export are stored in the file :
Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Info.plist
Assuming that you didn't installed the Developer tools, go to my iDisk (address below)
Download :
Pref Setter.app.zip
Unpack the archive.
Open the file "Info.plist" with Pref Setter.
Open the entry entitled : CFBundleDocumentsTypes
Open the items 9, 10, 11, 12
The normal contents is :
Double check the parameters available for items 9 & 10.
What you get may be linked to some oddity in these resources.

Everytime I open a document in Microsoft Word, it opens the two or three previous documents. Can I stop that from happening?

Microsoft files not opening in external hard drive anymore

Hi,
I've been saving my files from my Documents to my external hard drive but for the last couple of days the Microsoft files won't open anymore. If I save a file from a USB to the External hard drive it works fine (although if I then move this file to a folder already created in my external hard drive, I get the same message preventing me from opening the doc: "Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, might not be a valid Word document, or the file might contain invalid characters.") but if I transfer the file from my documents on my mac to the external hard drive, it won't open.
Similarly, I've created a new Word document and tried to save it directly onto my external hard drive but this message came up: "word cannot save due to a naming or permissions error on the destination volume".
I've tried linking up the external hard drive to a PC rather than my mac and Microsoft documents do open.
My external hard drive format is MS-DOS (Fat32).
I'm really not sure what the problem is and am starting to freak out as all my files are saved on the external hard drive.
Many thanks for your help

Open System Preferences > Time Machine
You should see the last time it was backed up.
Verify that you have the correct drive selected.
You should see something like this:

Trying to download from an external hard drive, no icon appears on the screen

trying to transfer files from external hard drive to mac, no icon appears on the screen

Windows uses either FAT32 or NTFS. Mac OS X uses Mac OS Extended also known as HFS+. All you really need to know is that they are just three different methods for storing information. Macs can handle some Windows formats, but Windows cannot handle HFS+ without additional software.
To see the format of the external drive, right-click on the icon and select Properties (Windows) or Get Info (Mac)
Mac OS X has been able to read and write FAT32 formatted hard drives since the very beginning. If you have a FAT32 drive you can simply connect it to your Mac and it will very easily be able to read and write to it. There is nothing special you need to do. However, there are two limitations of FAT32. 1.) It only supports file sizes of 4GB or less. 2.) Some Mac applications may not run from the drive as FAT32 does not adequately handle the permissions structure of Mac OS X.
NTFS is a different story. NTFS is a more modern Windows format but is proprietary to Microsoft. Licensing is required to use it which is probably why Apple doesn’t fully support it. Macs can read an NTFS drive, but they cannot write to one.

My wife has heaps of little apps on her ipad, should w=she save them to an external hard drive like she does her word documents etc??

Format the external drive for your PC. Connect it to her computer after that but do not format it. It will appear on her desktop if you have selected that in preferences. Use Finder and drag the files you want to copy from her computer to the icon for the external drive.

Time machine would back up only the first time after I shut off my imac and started it up again. Then it would fail or claim it could not locate my external Hard Drive even though it's icon was showing in the time machine dialog window.

Time machine only ever backed up the first time it runs immediately after I start up my computer after it has been shut off. All other back up attemps fail. Recently it stopped recognizing the icon for my external hard drive in the time machine dialog window where you select the hard drive to back up to, and turn on and off the time machine function. Now the external HD icon only shows up on the desk top but no longer in the dialog box. I just tried shutting the computer off and turning it on again and now the light is on, on the external hard drive but the icon does not even appear on the desk top.
The external hard drive is a 1TB Seagate. The drive still has plenty of unused capacity. I ran a diagnostic test on it. It said the disk needed repair but the repair function would not work. The message stated that it could not be unmounted and repair is not available because the disk can't be written to. The Mac OX utility said the disk can still be opened but can't be changed nor repaired. The external HD is not S.M.A.R.T. supported.
I haven't tried replacing the cable yet. Is that the next thing I should try?

What Mac OSX version are your running ("iOS" as shown in your profile cannot run on a Mac computer)?

How do I back up my entire iphoto library to an external hard drive that I have dedicated for photos only? Can I simply drag the iphoto library onto my seagate (hard drive) icon?

How do I back up my entire iphoto library on to an external hard drive that will be my second back up plan. I already have one back up that is also synched with time machine. But now I want to back up my iphoto library to a new hard drive to have a second copy. Can I simply drag the whole library onto the icon on my desk top? THX

WHile you can do it that way, the next time you back up you'll end up copying the entire library again, and,as you'l see, once a library gets bigger that can take a considerable amount of time.
Try using an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
