Mac for Office and stolen macbook

I had my macbook stolen. I have purchased a new one, but I now need to re-download the Mac for Office software. It won't let me do this. I don't want to purchase again.
How can I get this authorised?
Thanks

I'm having a problem sending a word doc via email. I have Mac for Office 08, when I save the document as a .doc or .docx, and send it to someone, they receive it as a blank document. Yet, when I open it on my Mac, it has a "word" icon. How do I fix?

I'm having a problem sending a word doc via email. I have Mac for Office 08, and I'm using Mavericks OS. When I save the document as a .doc or .docx, and send it to someone, (doesn't matter if its safari, chrome or firefox or on my yahoo or gmail accounts) they receive it as a blank document. Yet, when I open it on my Mac, it has a "word" icon and I can read it. How do I fix?

I suggest you post on the Microsoft Mac forums since it's their software you're having issues with.

Is it possible to find the mac adress of my stolen macbook pro?

Is it possible to find the mac adress of my stolen macbook pro? I've mad ea research an found out that the Mac Adress is really important to trace the device. But it's too late to check that on my laptop.. What should i do?

I understand that. But about your only shot without the box is to supply Apple with the serial number and ask them for the MAC info. My thought was if you can supply the serial number it's more proof that you're the owner. There's really no other way to get it without their help.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store.

I am feeling so ripped off right now. I have wanted a Mac for years and believed the hype about it's stability and I have had more trouble with this Imac 2011 than I have ever had with a pc. It locks up with several software products from APP store. I have already had to have a technician to look at it and really couldn't figure out what the deal was. I was told that the APP store software should give me no problems but the truth is that it locks up on the software. This machine is only 4 weeks old and I am using 37 g on a 1 T hard drive. There is no reason for it to be locking up. Also, when I try to use the help program, it always tells me that I am not connected to the internet even though I have used both the mail program and the browser with no problem just before that. I successfully used the help program on my pc lots of times. I did not need a $2000. plus machine to just get email. I just wanted to unload on somebody that might understand my pain and after checking out this site...I think there is a few of you out there.

The apps downloaded from the Mac App Store are written by third party developers, not Apple. If you have problems with those apps you need to visit the support area for their websites. Launch the App Store, locate the app name. You should see a support link.

Go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.helpviewer.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash. Restart your Mac, try the Help menu.
If you need help finding that file, hold down the Finder icon in the Dock then click: New Finder Window. From the menu bar top of your screen click: Go > Go to Folder. Type this in exactly as you see it here: ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.helpviewer.plist That will take you right to that file.
(.plist) files stores information about a particular app or in this case, the Help viewer. Often times deleting the .plist file resolves the issue.
It's fine to "unload"... we understand that you expect your iMac to be stable but there are times when things go awry. That's why we have these forums so that you can you get help.

Hi,
I`m getting error message like "None of the apps in your project can be activated in the target. The manifest file of one or more apps contain API sets or Office applications that are not supported by
the target Office client. To debug those apps, update manifest files to exclude any unsupported API sets or Office applications, and then start the project again. Alternatively, you can debug your apps by using Office 365 as a target." when when
updating the JavaScript API for Office and manifest schema files in your Visual Studio project from version 1.0 to 1.1 in manifest file though i have added host elements.
any help in this regard is highly appreciated
Thanks,

Hi Satosh Sutar,
Based on the description, you got the error message when you update the apps from version 1.0 to 1.1.
From the error message, it seems the menifest include some settings no allowed in the new version. Would you mind sharing more detail about how you update the project?
And here is an article about updating apps for Office and menifest schema files in the project for your reference:

HT6114 camera is not working in my mac for skype and facetime

camera is nt working in my mac for skype and facetime calls.there is no option for camera also in my mac...

• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
   suggestions do not help you, (the "reset" suggested there
   often restores normal function,) continue with the following.
• Use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions and then
   download and apply the latest Combo Update. For your
   Mac OS X (10.7.5), the latest Combo is http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1582
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
   that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. For hardware help, contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service.
(Over time, Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)

JoBautista,
you still have the option (before your warranty expires) of purchasing an AppleCare Protection Plan, which will provide an additional two years of coverage. Once your warranty expires, you will no longer have the option of purchasing AppleCare.

Getting new Mac for Aperture and have a question...

I totally realize that this is a personal preference with no "wrong" way to do it. However, I would appreciate some thoughts so I can form a better idea of how I will set up an Aperture workflow that will work for me for a long time and how to configure my new iMac.
I use the referenced library workflow and store both my masters and Aperture library on my current internal drive with both backed up to externals. I'm getting a new Mac with the SSD drive for apps and OS (and Aperture library as well). The question is, should I get the mega 2 TB internal HDD along with that SSD for all my masters (which would also include my music and home-made movies)?
My current photo storage adds up to only 130GB right now and grows slowly. I don't even think I would double that in the next year. I realize that if I had, say, a 1.5 TB size Masters library, the the answer would be obvious that I would need to store externally because the iMac HDD isn't big enough. But that isn't my situation.
But since I would be able to fit all my photos on an internal HDD (2TB) to use as referenced, is there a better reason to skip the internal 2TB HDD and just get hooked up with some good, high-speed external system and stick with an internal SSD to just handle the OS, music, and apps? In other words, all my media (photos and movies) would always be stored AND edited from an external drive (I will actually edit on the SSD and then move the referenced files to the external). This means that from now on all new Macs I ever get will only need a moderate sized SSD for OS and apps. I would basicallt forever keep all things media on externals.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help with this.

One other thing... the only way for me to get a 1GB VRAM now is to buy the top-of-the-line iMac. That's the issue.
I've seen that also. That's why I added the "If you can wait.." statement.
If you need to purchase before say late October, then the specs you list for the 21" iMac are quite good and the possibility of developers designing GPU threads that require caching in the VRAM may or may not need amounts beyond 512 MB. The fact that Apple offers an upgrade to the 2 GB VRAM video adapter on their high-end machine tells me that they know that the Pro Apps will be able to take advantage of that amount (not that it is necessary for the enthusiast looking to have a good Aperture experience).
SierraDragon has much more experience than I with Aperture, so he may be able to shed some light on this one.
For my part, I run a 17" MacBook Pro (late 2011) which has the 2.5 Ghz i7, 8 GB Apple provided RAM, and the AMD 6770 with 1 GB VRAM. I installed an OWC 480 GB SSD and I am connected to the Apple Thunderbolt Display (because this machine only offers a Thunderbolt port to connect video signals with). Aperture runs fine on my machine (although for some reason cropping takes a couple of seconds now, where it was immediate before the AP 3.3 update). I run Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6 without any issues on this machine, so it is definitely capable of running in a professional environment.
Since your specs call-out a 2.8 Ghz i7, 16+ GB RAM and an SSD, I personally would not hesitate to purchase that machine if you need to purchase soon. I just mentioned the 1 GB VRAM due to your wanting to be able to handle 4+ years of updates to the OS and software. That doesn't mean the 512 GB VRAM won't work great, just that the 1 GB VRAM would be additional insurance (sort of like Apple Care).

General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.

Mac for Gaming and School

Hello All. Okay, so I am new the Mac community. This fall I am planning on buying a Mac, but I was wondering if someone could tell me the different specs I would need for school work and gaming. Would it be better to get the Macbook Pro 15" or 13"? What would I need for an effective gaming computer. I plan to play the Sims and Guild Wars 2 on the computer. I don't know if that helps at all. If any of ya'll could give me some input that would be great.

Guild Wars is 3D and the Mac client is in Beta, for that you will require the 15" as the 13" has no discrete graphics.
No specifications on what the software will run on, but 3D games often require the most powerful video card graphics you can get and the option to upgrade it as the game gets improvments. You can't upgrade the video card in laptops.
I really don't advise any Mac for 3D gaming, a Windows 7 tower is much MUCH better suited to task and you can upgrade the video cards from plenty of cost effective options.
The MacPro is due to be axed it appears as Apple hasn't updated it for ages, the only video card upgrades (the few there are) cost 3x more and are 2x less in performance than compatible Windows PC versions.
Perhaps your better off on a 13" MBP with SIMS there (it's mainly 2D graphics) and then a Windows 7 64 bit gaming tower with 4GB of RAM expandable and the option to upgrade the video card every 6 months so you don't fall behind for the heavy duty games.
If your budget is tight, a console works ok too.
Scroll down until you find a Mac, you'll see what I mean shortly.

Also you need to keep your Windows 7 skills up, as 95% of all businesses use it, so you need to get a job one day.

ADM template for office and AD - Group policy

Hi,
I need to enforce English (UK) as the editing language in office application (2010 & 2013).
I have downloaded the ADM template saved it on C drive on the AD server.
Then I loaded the ADM template for office to a GOP which I created on test basis and added an AD user to it.
On the template I enabled the setting for primary editing language as English (UK) .
on the client side , when I open an office application eg outlook or word, I can still see English (US) as the set language.
what am I doing wrong ?
also how do I use the ADMX template ? because when from the GPO editor I try to browse add the its template the window show blank.

Hi,
From Windows 2008 R2, the current version of Administrative Template files are ADMX files. The GPMC displays these settings under the Administrative Templates node.
However, the GPMC still recognizes ADM files and displays these settings under the Classic Administrative Templates node, which is a child node to Administrative Templates .
Checkout the below link on installing ADM files,
Add or Remove Classic Administrative Templates
Checkout the below on adding the Office 2010 ADMX files in to GPMC,

How to uninstall on Mac for customUpdateUI and disable Updater.update()?

Hi there,
I am getting a strange behavior on the Mac and see if anyone
has similar issue.
First, I deployed a
"version 1" application and installed on the machine with
customeUpdateUI=true, when the app install, it will attempt
to update using
Updater.update() in the following manner,
quote:
private function runUpdate(updatePath:String):Boolean {
if (!updatePath)
return false;
var file:File = new File(updatePath);
if (!file || !file.exists)
return false;
var updater:Updater = new Updater();
updater.update(file, "version 2");
return true;
Then I repeat the step above for
"version 2" and everything is working great. The update is
working fine on Windows and on Mac. (This code is for demo only, I
didn't hardcode the version # in the app. ;)
The problem I have is re-install.
On Windows, if you uninstall "version 1", then install
"version 2", works great
On a
Mac, if you uninstall "version 1", then install "version 2"
fails, error message for "version mismatch".
It seems there is still something left behind on the Mac when
uninstall the app, such that when I launch "version 2" install, it
is still attempting to run update from the local installed app,
rather than the update from the new installed .air file.
Anyone have similar issue? How to uninstall an AIR app on the
Mac? Do I just trash the App directory, or do I need to perform
additional clean up?
Besides trashing the app directory, I also tried to delete
anything suggest to me is Adobe AIR related info, including,
/User/Library/App Support/Adobe
/User/Library/Preferences
/Library/App Support/Adobe
Please don't hesitate to let me know if anything I can
provide to identify this issue.
Thanks in advance.
OS: Mac OS X and Tiger

Thanks for the prompt reply.
The case is on the Mac, suppose my app is call myApp.air
1. Run myApp.air, install version 1, works great
2. Make a new myApp.air, name it version 2.
3. Run myApp.air, upgrade version 1 to version 2, works
great.
4. Uninstall version 2 by delete the installation folder. For
example, if I install on /Users/MyApp, delete the folder and empty
trash.
5. Install version 2 myApp.jar, error message complains
version mismatch.
On windows, I can uninstall from Control Panel. On the Mac, I
don't know how I should remove an AIR app, and so I just went ahead
and delete the app install folder.
Thanks in advance! Really appreciate your assistance.

Different apple id shows for updates on mac for iPhoto and iMovie

Hi, on my Mac there are two updates available for iPhoto and iMovie however the update requires me to use my old apple ID which I no longer use. I have checked iTunes, iCloud and the App store and my current apple ID is used for all of them. I don't understand why my old apple ID keeps showing up, I can't sign out of it because it doesn't give me that option.
I'm really confused, please help me out!!!

Those applications have the old Apple ID stored inside them. It can't be changed without deleting them and then redownloading them from the desired Apple ID; in the case of preloaded applications, you may also need to contact Apple. This can be done by going to the Mac App Store main page and clicking on Support under Quick Links.

[Outlook 2013] Apps for Office and Internet Explorer 11 (IE11)

We have the following configuration:
Windows 7 Professional,
Internet Explorer 11,
Microsoft Office 2013 (32-bit),
Microsoft Exchange 2013 CU6,
Symantec Enterprise Vault 11.
Patch level Microsoft Until 03-oct-2014, so very very recent.
What is the problem, in Exchange its possible to use "Office Web Apps" for integration with OWA. This works very good and we dont have any problems with OWA and the Office Web Apps within OWA Enterprise client.
But, in Outlook 2013, almost every "App for Office" crashes with a popup from Internet Explorer 11. When we open the App, we get a loading.... and after a while A popup with the message "Internet Exporer stopped working".
This is with every App i tested. And it can be reproduced.
What we tried:
Proxy settings;
Re-install Office 2013;
Internet Zone settings;
Browser compatibility modus with zones;
Reset internet explorer settings;
Various reg-hacks for IE security;
GPO settings for untrusted locations of Office Web Apps.
And lucky? No.
So we went back to IE9, and it works like a charm. No problems at all. But Unfortunately, IE9 is not an option due to company apps written for IE10+.
But when it works outside Outlook 2013 in IE11, but not inside outlook with IE11, there must be a problem somewhere with Outlook 2013/IE 11 integration. And actually, the currents Apps we don't need in Outlook 2013 (until snd quarter 2015, then we need them).
So for this time we configured "Block Apps for Office" GPO setting and depoyed it. And... In Every Office components Apps are disabled, but NOT in Outlook. So the GPO is not working for Outlook.
How to solve?

Here the procesmon dump where IE actually crashes...

Windows or Mac for photography and personal work

Hi,
I'm new to mac and have been a windows users all these years. I'm looking to buy a new Mac for the first time. I have other apple products like Ipad & Iphone too.
I'm working as a IT manager as a main profession. But im a photography hobbist with more interest in landscape photography, travel and family pictures too. I do lot of Photoshop & Lightroom works. I dont earn money for my photography. I do spend a lot of the time in front of my computer online like internet browsing, social media..etc.
I need some advice. The below are my question.
1. What is the best time to buy a new Mac? Should i wait till apple releases their new 2014 models?
2. When apple releases their new Mac products every year?
3. For my needs do i need to go for 13" MBP or 15" MBP?
4. I shoot lot of pictures every week. Not sure will mac be good option to backup all my pictures from my camera just like a windows PC.
5. Should i buy a cheaper windows PC (i5 with HD IPS display refurb for under $500) mainly for photography work and plus another 13 MBP retina for my regular light work? This will cut down the cost little bit.
6. Should i just buy just one high end version of 15" MBP with i7,16GB & 512SSD for all my personal use ?
7. If i buy a new MBP retina now, will i be able to uprade the SSD later? Does the new 2013 macs support upgrading the hardware?
I would Appreciate your valuable inputs and your time as well.
Thanks in advance,

In order (for the ones I feel I can answer):
1. Buy it when you feel it meets your needs. As an IT manager, I am sure you are aware how futile it is to chase the latest and greatest.
2. No one here can predict when (or ever) Apple will make hardware or software releases. In fact, speculation on those things here is forbidden by the TOU.
3. Matter of preference. Bigger screens are nice I had a 27" iMac and loved it.
4. Backing up on a Mac is seamless (Time Machine). EVERYTHING is backed up. I am cautious so I also make bootable clones in addition to using Time Machine.
5. I would not, but my opinion of "cheap" PCs running Windows is very low.
6. Only you should make that decision. A recommendation here would be just another opinion.
7. Yes. A friend of mine did that using a certified third party manufacturer. I always buy from Apple as I am hardware challenged.
Barry
Edit: about # 7 -Clinton is correct, I am sure. My friend has a non-retina model.
