Microsoft Word and PPT does not appear in Start

Hi there,
For some reason only Outllok and Excel apps appear on my Windows 8 Start page, but Word and PPT apps do not. Word and PPT also do not appear to exist when I use the Search function on the Start page. However I can still open up Word and PPT documents without problem from File Explorer.
Any ideas?!
Matt

Click on the Windows icon to enter the Metro interface. Put the cursor to the lower left and click on the arrow. Find the app you want to pin and then right click it. You should see a similar situation as in the following image. Now choose pin to start. Yours should say Pin to start.

Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer. This happened after I agreed to a failed software update.

My ipod touch has a permanent image of the end of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon of ITunes. I can't reset using the two button method, and ipod does not appear on itunes when I plug it into the computer - and nothing else happens either. This happened after I agreed to a software update which failed. How can I get it going again?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I am running IE 11 on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit Service Pack 1. When I attempt to install Flash Player, it goes through all of the steps, tells me the player is installed, and welcomes me. I cannot open the player and it does not appear in the Start Menu, Task Manager, System Tray, or anywhere else. When I try to open a file, the site tells me Flash player is not installed. I have even downloaded it to a separate folder and ran the install with IE shut down completely. And Shockwave in ENABLED but in 32 bit .I have been trying to get this to work for about 3 weeks now. HELP!!!

Flash Player is a browser add-on, not an executable program.
If you need to open a local SWF file you will need the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the file association manually.

Ipad takes photo every time I close the cover of its case. When I close the cover - it really does take a picture and saves a photo. Luckly, it make a click, and pictures are seen in the photo album, and it does not appear to be forwarding.

When I close the cover - it really does take a picture and saves a photo. Luckly, it make a click, and pictures are seen in the photo album, and it does not appear to be forwarding. It is just gobbling memory and annoying as I can only delete these pictures one at a time.

It seems to take a picture of the counter top = I do not see the keyboard.
I am wondering ....It may be a kids game app that takes pictures of the screen or out the back camera. I am starting to think it may just be a sound effect when placing the iPad on its screen. So many things that may be unrelated but coincedental. It started in May (the sound) and so did the multiple pictures - starting to think they are not related.
Thanks for the quick tip on deleting multiple pictures.

I bought a movie from my ipad in itunes and it does not appear

i bought a movie from my ipad in itunes and it does not appear. It is not inmoovies nor un the purchased items in the itunes app.
when I plug in my pc macbookpro it shows in my moovies but with an asterisk in front and i can not view it

- Do you have any Restrictions set that would prevent installing the movie? Settings>general>Restrictions
- Is the movie compatible with the iPad? There are some 1080 P movies available that are not compatible with the iPad 2
- On a computer log into your account and go to Purchase History to verify you actually purchased the movie.
- What movie was it?

Microsoft word and photoshop are not supported.

Installed mac os lion now Microsoft word and photoshop not supported.

Lion does not support PowerPC coded applications. It sounds like the version you have are too old and were coded for PowerPC. Upgrade them.

HT1414 HOw do I back up and restore If I plug my ipod in and it does not appear in the devices column. I have a white screen and i'm trying to fix it and nothing is working :(

How do I back up and restore my ipod touch if when i connect it to itunes It does not appear in the devices column? I have a white screen and have tried holding down the wake/sleep and home buttons and that is not working. Please help

Take it in for repair/replace to your local Apple retailer.

I have loaded new software and iMessages does not appear to be working. All messages appear as in delivered but they will send to the same address on my iPhone.

I messages does not appear to be working on iPad every time I type a message it comes up as in delivered but I can type the same message on my iPhone and it works straight away

MMS is a carrier issue... contact Verizon and ensure your account is provisioned correctly. I would think that someone would be intelligent enough to do that before buying a new device, but......
iMessage could be an activation issue or a network issue.
Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
Does iMessage work consistently on Wi-Fi?

Re-installed CS3 and Bridge does not appear...?

I was having major issues with Bridge (slow-moving, then crashing and finally an inability to open altogether). I tried a c number of things like clearing caches, repairing permissions etc. In the end, I uninstalled Photoshop CS3 and deleted all Bridge files, and reinstalled PS from the CD. However, after the re-instal, Bridge does not appear in the Apps folder and does not seem to have loaded at all. How do I get Bridge back? Any ideas? Clearly I should not have simply deleted the faulty Bridge app., but I assumed a clean re-install of PS CS3 would re-load Bridge. Any suggestions? Thanks....

Don't know why Bridge application was still there while having uninstalled
PSCS3 using the uninstaller that Adobe provides in either the utility folder
or in the application folder itself. (or did you you remove the application
by dragging it to the trash, usually a very bad idea when an official
uninstaller app is provided for this task)
However reinstall should by default install Bridge again in the default
application folder on root level. That is if you have not chosen anything
else when installing from DVD (you mention CD? but the original CS3 was
delivered on a DVD)
You also should check if the installer has a checkmark in font of all
application, I think to remember also in CS3 you have the option to choose
for a custom installation without Bridge. Could you check that.
And can you also confirm you have a install DVD and PS is in the default
application folder, that is not in the user account but on root level on
your system.
Clearly I should not have simply deleted the faulty Bridge app., but I assumed
a clean re-install of PS CS3 would re-load Bridge. Any suggestions?
Thanks....

Hello popsicles,
This first article should be helpful in getting iTunes to recognize your iPad once more:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If the device is still disabled once it's appeared in iTunes again, please reference this second article:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode

HT204053 how to instal icloud on my mac - I still have Mobileme and Icloud does not appear

how can I replace MobileMe with ICloud on my IMac?

The minimum requirement for iCloud is Lion 10.7.5 (Mavericks preferred): the iCloud Preference Pane does not appear on earlier systems - the MobileMe pane appears on Lion and earlier but is now non-functional - you cannot now open or access a MobileMe account.
To make use of iCloud you will have to upgrade your Mac to Lion or Mavericks, provided it meets the requirements.
The requirements for Lion are:
Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of memory
OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
7GB of available space
Lion is available in the Online Apple Store ($19.99). Mountain Lion (10.8.x) is also available there at the same price (though it's reported to have been removed from sale in some countries so may well cease to be available generally) but there seems little point as the system requirements are the same for Mavericks (10.9.x) - which is free - unless you need to run specific software which will run on Mountain Lion only.
The requirements for Mountain Lion and Mavericks are:
OS X v10.6.8 or later
2GB of memory
8GB of available space
and the supported models are:
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
