    Hi Alxx911, and John Hammer1. After reading John's reply - " You can plug something into it's headphone jack. though" . I thought i'd try out of curiosity. I plugged in some headphones. I didn't expect anything to happen  and nothing happened. The audio jack is for the Dell soundbar which is optional.
    Here's a direct copy and paste from the users manual: Section About Your Monitor.
    Attaching the Soundbar AX510 / AX510PA (Optional) CAUTION: Do not use with any device other than the Dell Soundbar. NOTE: The Soundbar power connector (+12 V DC output) is for the optional Dell Soundbar AX510/AX510PAonly. To attach the Soundbar: 1. Working from the back of the monitor, attach the Soundbar by aligning the two slots with the two tabs along the bottom of the monitor. 2. Slide the Soundbar to the left until it snaps into place. 3.  Connectthe Soundbar with the DC power connector. 4. Insert the mini stereo plug from the back of the Soundbar into the computerís audio output jack. For HDMI/DP, you can insert the mini stereo plug into the monitorís audio output port.  If there is no sound, check your PC if the Audio output is configured to HDMI/DP output.
    This monitor has no speakers. (Like John Hammer1 mentioned). The no speakers feature was one of the reasons I chose this monitor.
    Good Luck !

  • Lost use of word for mac 2004 when upgraded to mountain lion OSX

    IVe just upgraded to Mountain Lion OSX and lost use of word for Mac 2004. how can i get in to work again

    Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
    If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
    You may want to consider as well:
    These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
    NeoOffice
    Open Office
    And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
    Pages - word processing and layout
    Keynote - presentation
    Numbers - spreadsheet
    Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
    As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
    (Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

  • Can I have separate pages (using Microsoft word for mac 2011) utilizing a new iMac and a second monitor?

    Hardware - new iMac 21.7, Software Mirosoft word for Mac 2011.
    I presently adjust the text to allow two pages on my iMac monitor.
    If I add a second monitor can I have two different pages on it so I can
    see four consecutive pages (e.g. pages 31 and 32 on the iMac and pages
    33 and 34 on the second monitor)?  I am sure I can move items like
    pictures from one monitor to the other, but will the word processing
    software indicated above work like I would like it to?

    why would one of the pages be split?
    Because you'd stretch the Word window across both displays and the screen bezels would be larger than the page split. The page spacer in Word is much smaller than any bezel I've seen, so the two bezels would cause it to break up a page somewhere.

  • Use docs on my iPhone 5 when they were created on MacBook Air using Microsoft Word for Mac

    I'm looking for a FREE solution for my iPhone 5.  I want to be able to read/edit/save on my iPhone 5 the  docs I created on Microsoft Word for Mac on my MacBook Air (running Mountain Lion).
    I would like to be able to sync the edited/saved docs back to my MacBook Air and be able to open/edit/save them in Microsoft Word for Mac.  I really want to make sure that my edited docs don't become unusuable when put back on my MacBook Air.  Thanks!
    Can someone give me a solution?

    Hi,
    I'm glad to hear you got the advice here, and we support Office for Windows in the current forum, if you have further question about Office for Mac, I suggest you post the question in Office for Mac forum:

  • How do I send a fax using Word for Mac Lion?

    I have an iMac with Lion 10.7.4 and use Microsoft Word for Mac 2011.  My internet connection is Broadband ADSL.
    I wish to periodically send a fax - in days gone by I have used PageSender.
    Any suggestions?

    Can you send a fax over that line? I don't think so. I think you'll have to purchase a fax modem, maybe like this one:
    http://www.amazon.com/USRobotics-USR5637-FaxModem-Windows-Linux/dp/B0013FDLM0
    I assume it installs a "printer" that is actually a fax driver. You would then print to that "printer". Whether that's how it works or not, I'm sure the fax modem comes with some utility for sending faxes through it.

  • Hi!  My magic mouse won't scroll in word for mac - but it scrolls in safari and outlook.  So frustrating!

    I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite and am using Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 version 14.4.5.  My magic mouse no longer scrolls in word - though I can click on things with the magic mouse.  And the magic mouse scrolls in safari and outlook.  Any thoughts?

    I had the same problem. I just quit Word and restarted and it worked. I tried with a new document just to try it at first and when that worked, I tried it on the document I was working on and it was fixed!

  • Word for mac 2011 keyboard commands hang when network disk mounted

    After much trial and error, I have found that, for my system, at least, MS Word for Mac 2011 hangs on keyboard commands when a network disk is mounted on my desktop.
    Just wanted to alert all who get the beach ball when use keyboard commands in MS Word.
    Symptom was that Cmd-C would take 8-13 seconds or so to copy 1 word, versus immediate when using menu commands. Same with Cmd-V paste. Also, opening a document took much longer.
    Once I ejected network disk, problem disappeared.
    Hopefully this will save someone else the time I spent tracking down the issue. I'd still love to know the root problem, though, as I prefer to have a remoe disk mounted on desktop while I work, and now I can't.

    Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
    The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
    If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
    Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
    Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
    Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
    You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
    You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
    Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
    After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

  • 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.)

  • Word for Mac 2011

    Hello,
    Let me preface this by saying I am not very tech saavy at all. So forgive me if I don't give the ring specifics, etc.
    I am on an iMac (3.06 GHz Intel Core i3), MAC OS X Version 10.6.8. I am using Microsoft Word for Mac, Version 14.3.5.
    Here is a description of the problem I am experiencing.
    I have a word document open one day, and I leave the computer/office and come back and add something to the same document and then try to save the change – word won't save.This becomes apparent when I will try to exit the document  - and it asks me if I would like to save even though I just did save the changes. I hit save and again, it still does not save the changes. I have to copy/paste my changes into a new document. Close the original document without saving and then open it back up and paste the changes and select save.
    Please advise.
    Thank you!

    Try trashing the Word .plist file.
    1. Quit Word.
    2. In your home folder (Users / yourself) look for the Preferences folder. Open it and scroll through the contents to find the file: com.microsoft.Word.plist. Trash it.
    3. Restart Word.
    By the way, there is an update - Version 14.3.6 - that Microsoft has labelled "essential".

  • Opening Word for Mac on a PC

    I use Word for Mac 2008 on my iMac and MacBook because I need to send files to PC users, but many recipients can't open the files. I can't help wondering what 'compatability mode' is about if the files can't be opened by different computers without the users downloading additional software (which business users would be unlikely to welcome). I have also tried saving files in .docx and .dot formats, but the result is the same.
    I realise that this might not be a problem for the present forum, but can anyone suggest a decent alternative informational source? I've tried Mactopia and can't find anything that really covers this, besides which answers, if any, are slow in coming.

    Thanks for all the input and advice.
    In answer to rkaufmann87, I meant .doc – careless of me.
    Carolyn Samit asks if I click ‘Attach’ in Mac Mail. Well, Carolyn, this is going to amaze you. It certainly amazes me, because in all the years that I’ve used Mac Mail it has never occurred to me to click ‘Attach’. I drag my files into the body on an email. That could be my problem, so thanks for that. From now on I will ‘Attach, Attach, Attach’. Please imagine me banging my very thick head on my desk as I write this!
    Steve M mentions using a previous version of Word. Good point. I never had any trouble with previous versions – even dragging 50,000 word files into the emails. As for ‘compatibility mode’ – the phrase automatically follows every Word file I create. I find it rather irritating and have tried to find ways to eliminate it, but it persists.

  • HT1338 Mail Merge for Microsoft Word for Mac 2011

    I am trying to do a mail merge on my Macbook, using Microsoft Word for Mac 2011. I get as far as choosing the data source, however, a pop-up appears saying, "Word was unable to open data source." I cannot get past this point. Help!!

    Seeing as how Word is a Microsoft product, you might have a better chance of an answer on the Microsoft forum.

  • Mail / pages / numbers quit unexpectedly while using the BJPDELocalizedString2 plugin  in Word for mac a error mesage comes up when trying to print "Error, no pages found/file name"

    Mail will not print, pages will not print . . . pages / mail quits unexpectedly while using the BJPDELocalizedString2 plugin.  Tryed in Word for Mac. . .Error message; no pages found / filename This all happened when I unstalled brother P-touch.

    Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, ask for instructions.
