Is it possible to retrieve word documents from my imac after upgrading with yosemite from a 10.8 to a 10.10?

I have just upgraded my iMac from a 10.8 to a 10.10 with OS X Yosemite and have lost Microsoft Word.  Is there any way to retrieve my lost documents and what is a replacement for the microsoft word program?  When I try to open a word document  a notice comes up informing me 'you can't open the app "Microsoft Word" because PowerPC apps are no longer supported'.  Are there any options here?  Appreciate any info.

  • Can't see Numbers 2.3 documents on the cloud after upgrading to Yosemite

    Hello all,
    Just upgraded to Yosemite on a machine I was using Numbers 2.3 (yes, the new 3.X design is not working for me) with documents on the cloud. Now when I open a doc, the only "cloud" option is iCloud Drive.
    Is the 2.3-on the cloud functionality now broken? Do I have to upgrade to iCloud Drive (and, subsequently, to the latest Numbers)?
    Help!
    Thanks

    Yes I did that, as I stated above - by hitting F3 and looking at the different desktop spaces.  I'm wondering if it is just hidden below some border of the screen ?  How would I determine that?

  • Word documents won't print after upgrade

    I upgraded my G4 Cubefrom OS9.2.2 to Panther successfully. I also upgraded to a new printer. When I try to print documents created in my old system on OS9 in microsoft Word, they open up OK in Classic, but the print click brings up the old printer. How do I select the new printer? The printer works fine with old Appleworks documents. Also, will my very old 1998 Word programme work in OSX or will I continue to need Classic for it to function? Any thoughts would be most welcome. Thanks.

    You must install an OS 9 printer driver for the new printer and remove the driver for the old printer.
    The version of Word that you have is an OS 9 only version. You can use it while running OS X via the Classic emulation but the program will not run natively in OS X. For that you will need to upgrade to an OS X version.
    If you plan to continue using OS X you will need to upgrade all your old software to OS X versions including AppleWorks (6.2.9 upgrade is available for owners of AW.)

  • Is it possible to retrieve the data from maintainance view?

    Hi experts,
    Am facing one problem.
    Is it possible to retrieve the data from Maintainance View ,If yes how?
    IF it is not possible then Y?
    While am trying to retrieve data from maintainance view it's showing message like
    "it is not a database view or table".
    Can u pls give me ans.
    Thanks&Regards,
    Arun.

    Hi Arun,
    It is not possible to retrieve the data from Maintenance view. Maintenance View is different and Database View is different.
    Maintenance view : Maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together.The data is automatically distributed in the underlying database tables.
    A standardized table maintenance transaction is provided (SM30), permitting you to maintain the data from the base tables of a maintenance view together.
    In other words, Maintenance views enable a business-oriented approach to looking at data, while at the same time, making it possible to maintain the data involved. Data from several tables can be summarized in a maintenance view and maintained collectively via this view. That is, the data is entered via the view and then distributed to the underlying tables by the system.
    Database View: Data about an application object is often distributed on several database tables. A database view provides an application-specific view on such distributed data.A database view is automatically created in the underlying database when it is activated.Database views implement an inner join.If the database view only contains a single table, the maintenance status can be used to determine if data records can also be inserted with the view. If the database view contains more than one table, you can only read the data.
    Database views should be created if want to select logically connected data from different tables simultaneously. Selection with a database view is generally faster than access to individual tables. When selecting with views, you should also ensure that there are suitable indexes on the tables contained in the view.
    Hope this helps.
    Please reward if useful.
    Thanks,

  • Migrate word documents from external system to SharePoint 2007 site

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement wherein I have to migrate around 2500 word documents from one of the system to SharePoint system.
    Please note that my client is using MOSS version of SharePoint.
    Also some excel files are embedded in to some of the word documents.
    Those word documents are stored in different system (other than SharePoint).  I have to migrate them into my MOSS system.
    Is it possible OOB. I suppose doing it manually will consume a lot of time and client wants it do be done in minimum time.
    Is there any tool readily available or do I have to develop one in visual studio 2005? If yes could some one please share the code as I do not know how to proceed on this.
    Your help is highly appreciated.
    Please respond. Let me know if you need more info.
    Thanks & regards,
    Manish

    Hi,
    From your description, you want to get numerous files into SharePoint Document Libraries.
    After you log on to the SharePoint document library->click Actions->followed by
    Open with Windows Explorer. After Windows Explorer opens, you can upload and download files and folders using the standard copy-and-paste operation.
    Refer to the article:

  • Write to word document from oracle plsql

    Hi,
    Please provide methods to create and write to a word document from ORACLE PLSQL.We tried using UTL FILE package but it writes as ascii text.

    Divs wrote:
    The server m/c operating system is unix.so we need to invoke the procedure from Unix Os.In that case - not possible. For Windows COM (Component Object Model) to work, Oracle database need to be able to call and load the COM dynamic link libraries.
    Not to say that it is not possible. Have never used DCOM (the Distributed COM interface), and not exactly sure what it requires. Assuming that DCOM is not usable from a Linux perspective, you can still provide a manual interface. You create a NT tcp/ip service that exposes the COM interface calls that you need - in a secure fashion (even better - you can provide a higher level abstraction layer for the COM interface that does the specific job you need to be done).
    From Oracle you can then use PL/SQL's UTL_TCP package to open a connection to it and via this service craft a Word document on that Windows server.
    Are there web services for MS Office? I know Google is pushing that aspect hard (and embroiled in lawsuits with the US government and Microsoft about tender awards in this aspect). Now if Microsoft has "+office-on-the-web+", then one can create a Word document via a web browser. This means that there is an underlying web service - and that this can be called and used. The Evolution (Open Source Mail Reader) project for example uses the MS Exchange web service interface to provide a seamless interface to Exchange mail accounts (have used this everyday for a number of years now).
    The real question I would however ask is why Word specifically? Why not a more common format like PDF? You can even consider generating XML instead. Both Microsoft and Open Office and others are supporting XML formatted word processing documents (as oppose to older proprietary and binary formats).
    And why not use a Report Writer? I'm a big fan of doing as much as possible in Oracle (using PL/SQL most of the time). But certain things, like generating Word-style documents would be better done (and more flexible too) using a Report Writer.

  • Edit a word document from a JSP page

    hi all,
    i would like to know if it is possible to edit a Word document from a JSP page (without uploading it).
    thanks.

    Technically no. But what you can do is output a word document to the browser with the contenttype "application/msword" and if word is installed it will be opened inside the browser.

  • HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw doesn't print Microsoft Word documents from PC

    Hello.
    I've recently bought a brand new HP Laserjet PRO MFP125nw printer. The functions seemed really nice and the price was acceptable. I've brought it to my home, installed it following the manual, connected it to Wi-Fi etc. It generally works fairly well. PDF files are printed perfectly well, the scaning function works and it's generally a nice piece of technology.
    The only problem is that it just doesn't want to pring Microsoft Word documents from my PC. It prints it perfectly when I try to print .docx from my smartphone using the app, but it doesn't respond when I try doing it from the PC.
    My Office version is 2007 Enterprise. Do you have any idea what I should do?
    Thank you in advance

    Thank you a lot for a quick reply, Cbert. It's fantastic to see HP actually reading their forums and trying to help!
    I'll try plugging it into the wall and directly to the PC with a USB, we'll see if it works out.
    About Word, i've already tried reinstalling Word, even installed a 2003 version to check if it works with that. Well it doesn't. And as i've written before, I tried turning some .docx files to .pdf using a converter, but it still doesn't print them.
    Anyway, i'll try the first two points and keep you updated, thanks!

  • I am getting an unknown error when trying to download a word document from mail to pages, any help

    I am trying to download a word document from mail into pages and I keep getting an unknown error message, are there special settings for this? Any help much appreciated!

    Not there aren't any special settings for this. You just use the Open In feature to save the document into Pages. You could have a font in the document that Pages doesn't like, maybe something that you copied and pasted from somewhere into the document that went corrupt. But there is nothing special about the way that you save a Word document into Pages. You save it like you save any document or file into a compatible app.

  • Is it possible to retrieve deleted items from the Pages App please?

    IIs it possible to retrieve deleted items from the Pages App? Thanks

    From within the Pages app, no. If you have an iTunes or iCloud backup that would have contained the file, and you are backing up Pages, it could be received via a restore using that backup (this would wipe out any newer data however).

  • Is it possible to retrieve deleted files from the cloud i.e. contact list?

    Is it possible to retrieve deleted files from the cloud i.e. contacts?

    If you have an iCloud backup of an iOS device that was made while the contacts were still on it, you may be able to restore them from the backup by following this user tip from Winston Churchill: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4841.

  • Is it possible to retrieve phone numbers from previous iPhones through iTunes ?

    Is it possible to retrieve phone numbers from previous iPhones through iTunes ?

    iTunes does not backup any contact information.  Contact information is sync'd with your contacts program on your computer.  On a Mac, that would be the Contacts program, which iTunes will sync the content with between your iPhone and the computer.  On a Windows PC, people often use outlook, and their contacts are sync'd with its contacts.
    You can also sync contacts with iCloud.
    Do you still have the previous iPhones?  If so, just sync them with whatever contacts program you use on your computer, then sync those to the new iPhone.

    You need to close Firefox to install many plugins, including those from Adobe.
