Microsoft Office 2013 is not working on Windows 8

I downloaded Microsoft office 2 days ago. Since then Window 8.1 update has basically attempted to ruin my life. Since I attempted to download the update (which will not download properly no matter how many times I try) Microsoft office will not
open on my computer. All the apps are still there. But they simply will not open. I have tried going to the start and typing the stuff in safe mode, still nothing happens! Can someone please help me? I am beyond frustrated with my brand new computer,
Windows 8.1, Microsoft, and everything about this situation.

Hi,
Did only the Office suits not open or all the apps after you upgrading to Windows 8.1? Please do the following tests to narrow down the issue:
First test:
If only the Office suits could not be opened, please go to Office 2013 installed folder, such as C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15 and double click apps to open them.
If all the apps could not be opened, please press win+R and copy the path:
%windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1} to Windows 8 app folder double click apps to open them.
If they are both opened in folder, please try to unpin and repin apps on start screen.
If they still do not work, do the second test.
Second test:
If only the Office suits could not be opened, please try to re-install the Office 2013 to test.
If all the apps could not be opened, Please follow these steps to check the issue.
Step 1: Try App troubleshooter:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/4/F24D0C03-4181-4E5B-A23B-5C3A6B5974E3/apps.diagcab
Step 2: Re-register app files:
Run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML
For your reference:
Fix Store App in Windows 8.1 (AppxManifest.XML)
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/notime/archive/2013/10/18/fix-store-app-in-windows-8-1.aspx
Step 3: If the issue still persists, please try to log on with local account and re-bind your Microsoft account in Windows Store to see what’s going on.
Hope these could be helpful.

HT1338 microsoft office 2008 is not working with Lion

My Microsoft office 2008 is not working, it gives me a message that this program is in use in another computer on my network.
Is there any way to fix this issue?

That is the copy protection scheme that Microsoft employs. Each Office program sends out it's license code to your network. When you start an Office program, it looks for other Office programs with same code operating and prevents you from using it.

After installing acrobat my Microsoft office package does not work properly, word will not open and in my email i can't select anything with the mouse

After installing acrobat my Microsoft office package does not work properly, word will not open and when I want to write an email in my outlook email i can't select anything with the mouse. so copy past en delete are not an option.@

Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test: Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker. Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
Did you attempt to repair MS Office? Test: Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker? Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker. See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly?

Microsoft Office 2013 has stopped working

Please can you help? My PC is running Windows 8 Professional Plus 64 bit. I downloaded and installed Microsoft Office 2013 32 bit and it worked perfectly until I changed my graphics card to an Asus Radeon HD6450 Silent. Since then, all
the programmes, Outlook, Word, Excel etc. have stopped working. I have Microsoft Office 2010 32 bit installed as well and that is still working fine.
I have tried removing COM Add-ins and have also repaired MS Office 2013 but neither have worked. I have read the KB article but the driver dlumd32.dll does not appear to be installed on my machine. All the applications will run in Safe Mode.
I have uninstalled Office 2013 and re-installed it but at the end of the installation I got the ‘Microsoft Office has stopped working’ message.

Hi Lesley,
By checking the event log you provided, it seems this problem also occurs with Internet Explorer, isn't it?
And most of them are related to the atidxx32.dll file, I'd suggest we remove the graphics driver and see if this problem will still occur, if no, try to install any ohter version of graphics driver to see if this problem will still occur.

Office 2013 key not working

Funny thing happened.
My customer (I am IT sys admin) bought Office 2013 business (recommendation from the previous I.T.) Anyway he got his computer reinstalled because some problem with motherboard, computer returned back from the store and as I tried to install office it said
that the office isn't paired with his account.
Is there any way to describe to which account is this office paired either, how to unpair the office from the account and pair it to customers account ?
Thank you.

Did you mean you have problem reinstall Office 2013 on the same computer?
Office for a retail version can only be installed once at a computer, if there is significant hardware change to your machine, it will be considered as a new computer you will need to contact Microsoft Customer Service and they will help you to activate
your Office suites.
As far as I know, we cannot directly find out the related account for Office suites, however we can install from the following site with our Product keys:

Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin for Microsoft Office 365 does not work. When I check the cox for COM Add-ins, it unchecks it. "A runtime error occurred during the loading of the COM Add-in." I use Adobe X Professional. The Add-in worked fine in Office 2

I recently upgraded to Microsoft 365 Home and use Outlook 2013. The Acrobat PDFMaker Addin worked fine in Office 2010. Now, I get an error message: Not loaded. A runtime error occurred during the loading of the COM Add-in.
I use Adobe Acrobat X Professional.
I have restarted Outlook, restarted my computer, and nothing changes.
Does anyone have a solution?
Steve

I do not think that AA X is compatible with the newest versions of OFFICE and such. Your only choice is to print to the Adobe PDF printer or use the MS plugins to create PDFs.

After auto update to Widows 8.1, my office 2013 is not working.

FOLLOWING ERROR IS SHOWN ON OPENING OF ANY EXCEL OR WORD FILE.
"THE UPDATE PACKAGE COULD NOT BE OPENED. VERIFY THAT THE UPDATE PACKAGE EXISTS AND THAT YOU CAN ACCESS IT, OR CONTACT THE APPLICATION VENDOR TO VERIFY THAT THIS IS A VALID WINDOWS INSTALLER UPDATE PACKAGE."

Hi,
This error occurs because your Office installation may have got corrupted, and the software update cache registration may be missing from the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\<SID>\Patches\<SQUID>
First, please repair Office from Control Panel -> Programs and Features to check if the problem can be fixed.
If the issue persists, go to the kb below:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932857
Then download and run Microsoft Fixit 50123 from the following article:
How to fix MSI software update registration corruption issues
Repair Office again then check the result.

Microsoft Mail not working with Windows 7 & MS-Office 2010

Dear All
I have a client who is using Microsoft Mail for their internal mailing. They have been using MSoffice ( Outlook) for this purpose for last so many years.
We have found that Microsoft Mail does not work with Windows 7 and MS Office 2010 combination.
When you try to configure it given error 0x8004110.
When we tried with different versions, we found that if you install Office 2007 it works. If you try Office 2007 and then Office 2010 and remove Office 2007, it still work. But Then it is treated as 2 installations of Msoffice on the same computer.
I need to know whether this is right from Licensing perspective. We 'll be using single copy of office but it may seems as we have installed Office 2007 & office 2010 on same computer.
--Shekhar

We have found that Microsoft Mail does not work with Windows 7 and MS Office 2010 combination.
When you try to configure it given error 0x8004110.
Windows 7 is a supported operation system for Office 2010. At what exactly point will you get the specific error?
Is that a Click-To-Run version of Office 2010? By default, for MSI-based version of Office, when you upgrade existing Office 2007 to Office 2010, the earlier version of Office will be removed:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/keep-earlier-versions-of-office-programs-when-installing-office-2010-HA102597134.aspx
For licensing advice, as <Don> suggested above, you should contact your local Microsoft customer support or reseller.

Group Chat feature in Office Communications Server 2007 R2 does not work in Windows Server 2008 R2 domains

   Hello to all, there are two confliting articles about this topic:
   1-
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/upgrade-domain-controllers-to-windows-server-2008-r2(v=ws.10).aspx#BKMK_Whatsnew : this one says that it does not work "The Group Chat feature in Office Communications Server 2007 R2 does not work in Windows
Server 2008 R2 domains". This article was updated in 2013.
   2-
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee692314(office.13).aspx: this other article says that it will function "Office Communications Server 2007 R2 Group Chat will function in a Windows Server 2008 R2 forest". This article was updated in
2010 and was refered by the first one.
   What is the correct support position for Group Chat feature in Office Communications Server 2007 R2 and Windows Server 2008 R2 domains?
   Regards, EEOC.

Hi,
I notice the following sentence in the link below “Office Communications Server 2007 R2, Group Chat will not function in a Windows Server 2008 R2 forest or when Group Chat member servers are joined to a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain.
We know of an issue with changes in Windows 2008 R2 that requires a Group Chat Client and Group Chat Admin Tools hotfix. The Group Chat Client and Group Chat Admin Tools hotfixes are currently scheduled for mid-April 2010.”
http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2010/11/06/supportability-for-office-communications-server-2007-r2-and-windows-server-2008-r2.aspx
So in my opinion, if you update to the latest version of Windows Server 2008 R2, OCS Server 2007 R2 and Group Chat Client, Group Chat Admin Tools to the latest version, it should work.
However, the best method for you is make a lab to test the problem firstly.
Best Regards,

Microsoft office 2013 encountered an error during setup in Window 8.1

Initially, I got microsoft office 2013 64bit standard version installed in window 8.1. However, it suddenly got errors when opening office, and closed the program automatically. Therefore, I uninstalled it, and tried to re-install office.
However, I got the error "microsoft office 2013 encountered an error during setup" everytime when I try to install it.
I tried 32-bit and 64 bit version, and tried to install in clean boot, deleted registry, and modified the folder name "Microsoft Help", but none of them works.

Make sure you completely uninstall previous versions of Office. There may be remnants left behind, even after you uninstall Office using the normal procedure. I recommend using the “Fix It” utility to uninstall Office 2013 completely. Please refer to this
article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2739501/en-us you might also follow the manual steps provided on the same page.
If you still having problems, re-registering the Windows Installer and checking permissions on the %TEMP% folder and the C:\Windows\Installer folder to make sure you have full-control. To re-register the Windows Installer run the following commands:
msiexec /unregister
msiexec /register

How do I install Microsoft Office 2013 on my Mac via my Windows 8 Parallels Desktop 8 partition?

I recently bought a copy of Windows 8, Microsoft Office 2013 and Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac.
I wanted to install a Windows partition on my Mac so that I could run MS Office 2013 on a virtual machine.
I set up the VM, and everything was looking fine and worked smoothly.
Then, when I inserted the MS Office 2013 disk into the CD drive, nothing happened!
I tried to install MS Office 2013 but to no avail.
Does anyone know how to overcome this issue?
Thanks.

In the Configure menu item, under Virtual Machine, configure the CD/DVD to be recognized by your SuperDrive:
The only drawback is that you have to quit Parallels for the drive to be recognized by the Mac again.
I just purchased the Office 365 subscription for both Office 2011 on my Mac and Office 2013 on my Windows 7 side - sure makes life simpler, and less expensive.

Visio 2007 launch problem with Office 2013 installed "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio..."

Running under WIN7-64 bit with Office 2013. Requests reinstall every time it is run. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No change. Office 2013 does not recognize that Visio 2007 is installed. Copy paste operations between Visio and Word 2013 don't
work. Tried disabling sharepoint access for Visio 2007 and did a repair for Office 2013. No change.Tried various compatibility modes. No change. Ran Microsoft troubleshooter which verified there is a compatibility issue but provided no solution.
Tried the following...
Type the following command, and then press Enter:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
no change

Hi,
Based on the situation, I recommend you try to use locale administer account to login in the computer.
Then we re-install Visio 2007, if you solve the issue,please let me know.
