Mavericks 10.9.2 and MS Office crashing

Yesterday I upgraded my MacBook Pro to 10.9.2 and after that, I started having several problems. The biggest one is that now, none of the MS Office programs (Excel, Word, Power Point) are working.
When trying to open them, it shows like the fonts are updating but it only reaches 24% of the process and then they crash.
Anybody else having this problem ? Reinstalling MS Office will solve it ?
Also my Mail program is acting erraticaly.
First time I've had a problem with a system software upgrade.

I've also been unsuccesful in opening my Microsoft Word 2011. I'm currently running a MacBook Air on 10.9.2, and from what I can tell, Word is the only program having trouble booting. The only other office program that I regularly use is Excel, which works fine.
Every time I go to open any word document or the program, itself, I always gives me a message that says that "Microsoft Office has encountered a problem and needs to close". When I click on more info about the issue, I get this message:
Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0

  • Is ILife 11 the current version today? Will its purchase upgrade my Iphoto 8.2.1 to Iphoto 11? I have a Macbook, Maverick and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos.  I understand ILife is the way to fix it.

    Is ILife 11 the current version today? (May  2014).  ILife 11 on Amazon appears to be 3+ yrs old?
    When searching for ILife 11 on the Apple Store, I am directed to a separate purchase of Iphoto version 9.
    Somewhat confusing, Apple is always so clear with these things. 
    The goal is to upgrade my Iphoto 8.2.1 to Iphoto 11.
    I have a Macbook Pro, Maverick 10.9.2 and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos. 
    I understand ILife is the way to fix it.
    Thanks!

    The current version of iPhoto is iPhoto 9.5.1., and it is the latest version of iPhoto '11.
    If you are running Mavericks 10.9.2, you can buy iPhoto 9.5.1 from the AppStore - it is the currently sold version.
    The iLife bundle is called iLife '11, and the iPhot version in iLife '11 is iPhoto 9.x.x. - that is confusing allright
    I have a Macbook Pro, Maverick 10.9.2 and Iphoto is crashing when exporting photos.
    While it is certainly useful to upgrade to the current iPhoto version to be fully compatible with MacOs X 10.9.2, there may be a differnet reason for the crashes. Is there an error message with the crashes? When did these start? Did you import new photos or videos? Install other software?

  • Yosemite chrome & ms office crash

    I upgraded to Yosemite over the weekend.  Now my Chrome and MS Office crash constantly throughout the day.   I have to quite the applications and start over.   It happens pretty frequently, at least one an hour.   I am on Chrome latest version (38.0.2125.104) and MS Office (14.4.5).  Neither have any updates.  Please help.

    I have the exact same problem but only with Microsoft.
    I am working on my dissertation so I need to save every 5 minutes because Excel keeps on crashing. It also happens quite often that my keyboard doesn't function anymore in Excel (this happens only in Excel). I then solve this by saving my files and ending and relaunching Excel. Still it's quite annoying.
    Any help would be more than welcome!
    Oh, and I have this problem on both iMac and Macbook pro. Microsoft is installed from the same account.
    Thank you!

  • I have an hp office jet 4500 and os maverick 10.9.4 and I can't get it to print after last upgrade, multiple malfunctions and error, help?

    I have an hp office jet 4500 and os maverick 10.9.4 and I can’t get it to print after last upgrade, multiple malfunctions and error, help? I have tried deleting and resetting printer and re-installing update 6 times. Last update attempt showed none available??? I can’t load the software directly from HP because their only option is to use the software update option on the mac....frustrated!!! Help!!
    I get blank pages that just run through the printer and a stats window that just 33% complete and goes no further.

    I am going on the guess that an old driver is still installed...
    Use Finder Go > go to folder, and go to /Library/Printers and delete the HP folder(s).
    Reset the Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    Now, Add the printer in Print & Scan prefs.

  • Updated OS X Mavericks and now USB ports and MS Office apps won't work. How do I fix this?

    I updated  my MacBook Pro (mid 2012) to OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and now my USB ports and MS Office apps won't work.  What do I do to fix this?

    What system version were you running before you updated to 10.9.4? Another 10.9.x or something earlier?
    What version of Office? 2004, 2008, or 2011?
    Were you aware that Office 2004 does not run on recent versions of the system?
    When you say your USB ports do not work, on what are you determining that?
    Were you aware that Mavericks does not display external disk volumes by default?

  • OS X Mavericks and iwork frequent crashes

    Hi there,
    I have a late 2012 MacBook Pro with Mavericks and the new iwork suite.
    The system and the program suite are unrealiable and unstable. I have frequent crashes using Keynote, losing important presentations. The screen freezes, forcing a mannual reboot. In addition, everytime I connect to projector, using keynote, the system crashes, and I also have to manually force reboot. After rebooting with the projector connected, the second screen appears fine. These problems are very frequent. I wonder if anyone has similar problems.
    I am a poweruser, used to compile my own scripts and research programs. I use OSX since Leopard, which never had such issues. Since Mountain Lion, I can not rely on my computer as I used to in my old macbook white from late 2008.
    Is there something I can do to stop these crashes?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash or panic reports. If you don't see that heading, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". It may be under either of the two subcategories, "System" and "User." A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic".
    Select the most recent of each and post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as a hang log — they're very long and not helpful.

  • I recently installed Mavericks on this iMac and upgraded to Adobe Cloud 2014 now InDesign CC 2014 fails to launch and I get a crash report. Has this happened to anyone else?

    I recently installed Mavericks on this iMac and upgraded to Adobe Cloud 2014 now InDesign CC 2014 fails to launch and I get a crash report. Has this happened to anyone else?

    It isn't happening to everyone else, but if there was a trend of it happening to a lot of people, that would probably show up in the official InDesign user forum. But there aren't a lot of crash reports there, so it isn't something that's happening to everyone. There are a couple, so you might look at those. But since there is not a huge wave of crash reports, the problem might be more related to a problem on the system rather than a problem with InDesign, like a corrupted font.
    The best place to troubleshoot is probably over at the Adobe forum since the users there know InDesign very well.

    I just installed Maverick to my imacG5 and now my Office 2004 doesn't work?? Where do I go from here??
    Thanks.

    You have given us inaccurate info about your iMac.
    The G5 iMac is all white and runs a IBM Power PC (non-Intel)  CPU that cannot run any OS X version above OS X 10.5.8.
    OS X 10.6- 10.9 all run on much newer Intel CPU iMacs that have aluminum enclosures.
    Typically, mid-2007 models and later.
    The iMac model you described can't possibly run OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    Please download, install and run Etrecheck.
    Etrecheck is a small, unobstrusive app that compiles a snapshot of your entire Mac hardware system and all installed software.

  • AppleWorks 6 and Microsoft Office in Mavericks?

    I want to upgrade my 13" MacBook Air from OS 10.6.8 to Mavericks, but I need to continue using AppleWorks 6.2.9 and Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac.  How can this be accomplished?

    Neither will work in any version of OS X after Snow Leopard.
    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.)

  • Safari and firefox keep crashing using Mavericks

    My versions of Safari and firefox continually crash. I am using the mavericks OS on a mid 2011 13" macbook. is there a simple fix?

        Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.
        Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.
        Restart the computer.

  • CS5 InDesign and Illustrator keeps Crashing upon startup while Photoshop works fine

    I installed CS5 on my iMac running Mavericks. Photoshop works fine, but InDesign and Illustrator keep crashing upon starting the program. InDesign specifically crashes when it "registers 224 plug-ins". Illustrator crashes almost instantly. Adobe phone tech support is not available because this is not a creative cloud subscription. Has anybody else encountered this issue?

    Sorry it has been a busy few days in the office - but I still would like to get this program running...
    Tried replacing the entire Adobe Folder - still not the answer...
    I've replaced all these folders too that are appeared after successfully launching InDesign in the Guest Account (see images)
    My preferences and cache folders in my main user account have a ton of files and folders compared to my guest account. Could that be the source of the problem? I can post screen shots if you think that they may be the source?
    Thanks,

  • Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
    I upgraded to Mavericks on 4 seperate computers, an 2 iMacs, MBPro and an MBAir and ALL four no longer connect to Microsoft Office 365 email accounts either with Office 2011 or the built in Mac apps.  Apple support says "Microsoft knew for a year that Mavericks was coming out and it their job to make it compatible".  I repsonded that their own Apps like Mail, Contacts and Calendar don't work either and they attempted to trouble shoot those apps only to no avail after 4 hours and a Mavericks reinstall.  I have also tried an Office reinstall.
    Right now I am no where, stuck between two companies who say it's the other guys fault......

    Me again:
    A colleagues more formal description of the problem:
    We have had a major problem with people working directly off of the afp reshares with MS Word.
    Word creates "Word Work Files" and usually is able to store them in either "Share/Temporary Items/uid/TemporaryItems/" or "Share/.TemporaryItems/folders.uid/TemporaryItems" as long as permissions are correct.
    This works under 10.5.7 seed release 9J39 with direct attached storage, but with the Xsan reshared the word work files appear in the same folder as the opened document even though the permission for temporary items are correct.
    This causes a number of issues, one being that if one user has a document open and another clears out the word work file then the open document cannot be saved.
    Another issue that we have seen is where the word work file is created and then the original document disappears (although I think this may be another user housekeeping the word work files again).
    We have tried to persuade users to work on local copies of the documents instead, but old habits die hard...
