KB2863926 - Word update (Other office patches also shown as updated)
Hi
Recently updated April 2014 MS security patches on our Win7 SP1 machine.
One of the patches i am applying is (KB2863926), which is a word2010 patch.
However, noticed in Program Features, that bucket load of other office related updates are shown to have been installed on the same date as KB2863926. Is this a normal behaviour of Office related patches?
Also the other thing is that, noticed on one user, their outlook 2010 is now asking for password all the time. Although correct password is entered, doesn't accept. However outlook is working fine. Was wondering if anyone experienced this, with this round
of patches.
Thanks,
DM
Hi,
Yeah, you can check the windowsupdatelog (%windir%\Windowsupdate.log) for detailed information, sometimes, Windows Update repeatedly offers the same update because the previous updates are not installed successfully or correctly, you can also view Windows
Update\View update history, check the status for this KB\view details. or you can just reinstall this updates, then check if issue persists.
For issue ablout outlook, you can quickly find solution in this forum

That happens when I don't know how to write so I copy/paste words from other languages, it also happens when I copy words in other languages written in a Word document, and then paste it on a website using Mozilla. This doesn't happen when I use Internet Explorer.
Well you second post was the correct question because I was going to say you got a second hand macbook pro, didn't change anything, and expected mail to work with your ISP. The mail settings were thus those of the previous owner. So you are correct to ask what your ISP's settings should be.
Unfortunately I can't answer that. You have to get that from your ISP. They proably have a web page for it.
You need to know:
Incoming mail server (pop)
Incoming mail server login name
Incoming mail server password
POP port
Does is require SSL?
Authentication for using POP server (probably password)
Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
Outgoing mail server login name (probably same as incoming)
Outgoing mail server password (probably same sas incoming)
SMTP port
Does is require SSL? -
Last night I downloaded the latest Word update. Today the first Word document crashed and I lost 45 minutes of work in spite of having saved the document numerous times. Why is Word crashing the day after a safety update? I have Office 2008 for Mac
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
/private/var/run/StartupItems
/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/StartupItems
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons
/Library/LaunchDaemons
Open Console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem & next startup for clues. -
Why can't I delete or rename files in Word for Mac and other Office programs?
When I try to delete or rename an Office for Mac file, I can't. How do I delete/rename Word for Mac and other Office for Mac files?
Had this problem for quite a while but found a work-a-round. I click anywhere in the text I want to delete and insert any character. I am then able to block and delete any text I want to. It's been working great.

Changed AppleID p-word and now can't login to icloud on mac mini. I use correct password and I get spinning grey wheel. I know it's the correct password cause any other p-word gets error message. Also, my time capsule is blinking amber. I've reset my password a few times and it doesn't help. Also have shut down completely and unplugged everything to no avail.
Hey jamesarm97 & diegofoto,
On August 21st, some users may have been unable to access iCloud services for a short period of time. Apple worked quickly to resolve these issues, however you two may have experienced them. To check the current status of these systems please see:
Apple - Support - System Status
http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/
If either of you are still experiencing issues, you may want to troubleshoot with the following articles:
iCloud: Troubleshooting web browser issues with iCloud.com

I have Lion on my laptop and I want to back up my calendar TO my iphone. Not the reverse. iCloud only goes from iphone to iCloud to mac not the other way. Also, why doesn't "sync" mean update most recent changes across all devices? I thought that was the point of iCloud. Any suggestions since iCloud doesn't seem to work?
It's a work computer so I wanted to save them to my iTunes so I can access from another computer. Should I go to a home computer and just Import for best results? If so how do I do this? Also, why would I be synched with another library and how do I find out what this is? Very new/green user here

i just updated my iphone to ios5 now when i go to music it says 'no content' when i checked my capacity it shows 7.9gb in 'other' . i can also see all my music and apps on the device menue in itunes.
I went to the Summary page of iTunes and checked "Sync only checked songs and videos". Synced again, and no songs were playable. Unchecked my only playlist and synced again. All the songs were gone as expected. Checked my playlist again, and all the songs were there. Looked at them under the music tab, but they were all grayed out. Tried to play any of them, but could not. Tried to sync again and received the message, "The iPhone could not be synced because the sync session failed to start."
Every time I connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes, it says "iTunes was interrupted while restoring the contents of the iPhone ____. Would you like to restore this iPhone again now?" I click "Continue Restore" (I'm tempted to click "delete backup.) It then says, "An error occurred while restoring this iPhone (-54). I click OK. I'm redirected to the "Set up your iPhone screen". It's already selected to "Restore from backup of ___'s iPhone". Click continue. It restores for about 2 minutes. iTunes says my settings have been restored and wait for it to restart. And again the message that "iTunes was interrupted..." (see above). Crap.
How do i get this back to where it belongs? -
Word 2003 w/ Office 2007 compatibility pack crashes after writing PDF
Writing PDF from Word 2003 SP3, all patched, using (most recently) Acrobat 7.1.0 has for some months crashed on my system after the PDF is written but just before the Acrobat window closes and control of Word is returned to the user. Word is hung so severely that it is not possible to close it with Task Manager. And, it happens every time, whether from a single-page document or a >300 page API document with extensive graphics, links etc.
The generated PDF is complete and valid, but has not been closed, so at this point it cannot be accessed. No choice but to reboot, after which the PDF can be accessed and is just fine. Word shrapnel (temporary files) litter the folder because it never closed properly.
Searching the net I could never find anything that sounded like my problem. It felt to me like a font issue. On a hunch, I uninstalled the Office 2007 compatibility pack (which comes with Vista fonts that I've never used), and along with it, several associated Office 2007 security updates and service pack 1 for the compatibility pack.
Once again I can write PDF's without hanging Word. If I had nothing better to do with my time, I might try reinstalling the compatibility pack, its service pack and the updates one by one to see when (or if) the problem might return... but this has caused me enough grief so all I'm prepared to do is post this information in the hope that it might help someone else.
BTW - I also use Solid Documents PDF Converter once in a blue moon to create Word docs from PDF files. It also has PDF generation capability, which I tried as a troubleshooting measure. Same result. Clearly this is nothing to do with Acrobat per se.

QSound Labs, Inc.Sad to report that a few days later, the problem had returned, so my joy was short-lived. Now it's even more mysterious than ever. Why would uninstalling a compatibility pack provide *temporary* relief?

Preliminary Success and office patches
Background:
1. 99.7% of our clients have installed KB2880971 - 10's of thousands of clients
3. the clients that do not show it as installed show all other patches install verified, except
4. some MS Office patches (not all) show as Preliminary Success, non-compliant and are required
5. the patches show as installed in add remove programs
6. the clients are running scans just fine, have rebooted many times, and otherwise appear healthy
7. I ran the update compliance script and updatesStore.log still shows that patch as missing
Since this specific patch should have installed last year, all logs from that time have wrapped. I don't see any errors. Why are some MS Office patches showing as preliminary success, non-compliant in SCCM, when they appear in fact to have been
installed? They have installed since they're in Add\Remove Programs, right? What can be done about this?have you tried deleting the computer from SCCM and let the records come back again ? sometimes that fixes the issue. Give a try by reinstalling the client ?

While trying to save a word document (Microsoft Office 2011 for Mac) in PDF, there is a section of the header or footer which is always missing!! Could anyone please tell me hot to fix this problem!!??? It works perfectly fine on my friends Mac!!
Easiest way with Acrobat pro, is save the Word document, then convert the document to PDF with Acrobat, rather than doing a "save as" in Word itself to PDF.
Do you have Acrobat full version or Pro? -
How can I get an image from the screen? Like screen printer in PC to pasting after in word or other program.
If you do Cmd+Shift+3 you'll get a full screen image saved to your desktop as a jpg file.
Also, you can use Cmd+Shift+4 and you'll get a cursor which you click+drag to draw a box. When you release the drag the boxed in area will be saved to the Desktop as a jpg file. -
How can I get a good app to open any email with different attachments such as PDF , word and others, something to open
Easily just like my PC . Is it possible?Those document types should open in the Mail app. If you want to transfer them from Mail into another app then there is Documents To Go (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/documents-to-go-office-suite/id317117961?mt=8#) which, from its description :
• EDIT, CREATE & VIEW Word & Excel files (including Office 2007/2008/2010)
• View PowerPoint ,PDF, iWork & other files
• iPad/iPhone 4/iOS 4: Send & receive attachments using the device's built-in Mail app
• Includes desktop app (Win & Mac) with 2-way file sync (WIFI required to sync)
I havn't got the app myself, but I've seen it recommended by others -

What is the best free word processing or office program for OS X Mountain Lion
What is the best free word processing or office program for OS X Mountain Lion?
"Best" is quite subjective. As William points out, TextEdit may be the "best" in someones eyes as it isn't cludged up with crap you don't need.
What are your requirements?
Basic text editing?
Do you need:
Table of Contents
Index
Footnote/endnote management
Different headers/footers
Page Layout
What are you going to use it for?
Technical Reports
Screenplay
Leaflets and newsletters

COM object model not functioning after encrypting the word document using office extention
After encrypting A word document using office extention, it seems like the COM object model becomes unusable. I cannot not manipulate the encrypt document through COM interface, nor can I write macro VBScript to do some operation on the docuent.
For example, I create a word Macro with some simple code.
Sub hi()
Dim i As Integer
i = ThisDocument.Fields.Count
MsgBox i
End Sub
If the document is not encrypt, then we will see a msgbox which tells us the number of bookmarks in the current document.
Now, encrypt the word document using the office extention, running the macro code will fail with error code " 80004005" and error message:Method 'Fields' of bject 'ThisDocument' failed.
It is very important for us to manipulate word documents through COM interface in our system, I want to know why the COM interface does not work anymore after the document is encrypted.I take macro script as an example to demonstrate that word COM object model cannot be used after encripted. Actually you can reproduce the same problem when you manipulate word document through COM interface using any programming language.
For example, you can create a text document with the following VBscript:
set a = createobject("Word.Application")
set doc = a.Documents.Open("E:\temp\test.docx")
msgbox doc.Fields.count
doc.close
a.quit
Save the document with ".vbs" file extention and then run it by double clicking it. it will fail if the document is encrypted using the office extention.
