Microsoft Word 2004 disappeared from my dock

After installing Leopard:
Word has disappeared from my dock - actually, it was replaced by a large question mark.
I cant find it in the Office 2004 folder in the applications directory. Any suggestions?

I had that happen to. I closed out the program then double clicked on it (the question mark) and the icon came back.

    If Word is actually gone (apps don't just disappear) then you can download a copy of LibreOffice, it is free, and Word compatible.

  • Microsoft Word had "disappeared" from my iMac where could it have gone?

    I purchased microsoft office when i bought my mac from the online store. All other ms products are working except ms word.   it had just "disappeared."  where has it gone and how do I get it back?

    ...  It appears as if it was just never there, aside from what is/was the MS "W" logo in the dock, there was a question mark behind it.  When i open any of my .docx files which would normally be opened by ms word, they open to the textedit app.
    Apologies for having assumed you wouldn't know about dragging it off the dock. From what you describe, it certainly does sound like Word is really gone!
    The question mark means that Work is no longer where the Dock expects to find it.
    Have you checked the Trash (though Spotlight should have found it there)?
    If you really deleted it, I am not familiar with how you can prove to MS that you really bought it and are entitled to it, but the first thing I would try is to download the "trial version" again from MS. If you paid for it the registration information should still be present and it will run without complaint.

  • Freezing problem with Microsoft Word 2004

    Hi,
    I'm recently having this issue...
    I would be working (typing) on my Microsoft Word 2004, then jump to another application, come back, and the Word would freeze. It does eventually unfreeze, but I have to wait about a minute until it does, and it gets a bit frustrating. I haven't lost any files due to this problem but I'm afraid I might sometime soon. If I'm just typing on it it's fine - it doesn't freeze. But it's when I use another application and go back to it it freezes. My CPU or memory is below average and I have 2GB of RAM so I don't think it has to do anything too many files/applications opened at the same time.
    Does anybody know how to fix this/what's wrong with it?
    Thanks.

    Thanks, I'll give it a try.  I already removed Acrobat Pro 9 from my
    computer, but I'll be willing to try again with a new download.  I always
    wondered by Word would open up when I was sending an e-mail...I don't need
    fancy editing for e-mails.  So, now I know.
    Thanks again.

  • Microsoft Word 2004 unable to open with Leopard

    I just recently upgraded to Leopard 10.5.5. When I attempt to open Microsoft Word (2004) I am given an error reading 'font NSWCursive Outlined is corrupt and should be removed'. I have attempted to reload Office without success.
    Any help would be great.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions:
    This is a common plaint discussed here and in the Install and Setup forum many times in many threads.
    Some have gotten it to run, others updated to 2008, while others switched to NeoOffice or OpenOffice which work nearly flawlessly with Leopard and are free.
    If you search these forums for "Microsoft Word 2004" you will find a plethora of information, some of which may be helpful.
    Typically I think you have to do a complete uninstall and reinstall and be sure you have the very latest patches from MS.

  • How can I convert Microsoft Word 2004 to Microsoft Word 2011? About 50% of the time Word 2011 won't open Word 2004.

    How can I convert a Microsoft Word 2004 file to Microsoft Word 2011?  Most of the time the prompt says that the old Word is not supported anymore.

    Go to the Microsoft web site and download it.

    Microsoft Word 2004 will not run on OSX 7.5 or later.  You might as well delete it.

  • How to stop application folder form disappearing from the dock

    I'm on MAC OS 10.6.7 on my Macbook 7.1.  My applications folder disappeared from the dock.  I can drag a new copy from the Mac Hard Disk folder to the dock (to the right of the dashed line (my dock is at the bottom) and it appears with an Address book icon.  After 10 to 15 seconds, the icon disappears.
    Anyone know what is going on and how to fix this?

    Not sure why this is happening, but try this. This is the way I've done it. First, make an alias of the folder (File>make alias) and put it somwhere, like Documents. Then, copy drag it (Option-click) to the part of the dock below or to the side of the separator near the Trash icon. This will place an alias of the folder in the Dock. You must keep the first alias you made.
    You can also make one just for Utilities, the same way. The app folder will appear with an A and the Utilties folder will appear with an X.
    EDIT: It's been a while now, but I think I got rid of the default app folder because I didn't like the way it looked and functioned.
    You can also see I put an alias of my home folder there, as well.
    Might as well mention another customisation. Get Tinkertool (free) Go to Dock>Disable Dock Expose to get rid of the very annoying -- at least to me -- entire screen turning black when opening one of the Dock icon's options.

  • Firefox disappears from my dock and I have to copy it to my Apps folder each time I start up, and I am then prompted to install the latest version, but notification will not go beyond contacting server.

    I have tried many of the suggested solutions from online communities, like uninstalling and reinstalling, but I still have the same problem - Firefox disappears from my dock, when I click on the 'question mark' in the dock to open it, I'm asked to copy to my Apps folder, which I have to do each time and replace old version. Then I'm prompted to install the latest version, but when I do this, it gets stuck on contacting server. Please help! I'm using Yosemite 10.10.

    Do you have the current version of list.it (version 0.4.8.9.1)? This page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12737/ indicates it is compatible with all Firefox 3.6.* versions.
    Tools > Add-ons > Extensions shows what version. If it is old, click "Find Updates" at the bottom of the Extensions window.

    Delete the App Store app by dragging it and dropping it into the Trash.  Then download and install the appropriate update combo for your version of OS X;
    Install new MAS app -
    OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update combo

  • Where is my downloads folder it disappeared from the dock?

    where is my downloads folder it disappeared from the dock?

    The icons in your Dock are "aliases" or copies of the original so it's easier to open them.
    To find your original Downloads folder, simply click on the Smiley Face Icon in the Dock near the begining, it opens a Finder Window.
    On the left, click on your "username" icon, on the right a list of folders and one will be "Downloads"
    Now click and drag this folder to the Dock next to the Trash Can (only) and it will make a new "alias" there.

  • Why are icons disappearing from my dock even tho I can still use the location to open the app

    How do I keep icons from disappearing from my dock - even tho I can click on the emptied location and open the "ghost" application?

    That sounds off. I would right click on the icon/space in the dock and click options>remove from dock. Then drag the application from the apps folder in finder to the dock again and see if it stays.

    So instead of this:
    <a class="brand" href="index.html"><img src="../img/logo-ca.png"alt="Consumers Advocate Review"> </a>
    Would it be something like this?:

    And if I do that, is there a way to cope with that locally so that DW can still display the images?
