Microsoft Word crashing/lag time switching between apps

My Microsoft Word suddenly started crashing constantly. Everything is up to date with both Word and Mac software. Now, I'm starting to experience a lag between trying to highlight a word—same delay is happening when I go between applications. I have OS X and Word 2008. Thoughts?

I have the exact same issue. Whenever I switch to another app via the Dock, cmd-Tab, or clicking on another window, after a few seconds iPhoto crashes with no errors in the log (just a crash log). I had iPhoto Library Manager rebuild the library of 12,000 photos which took most of a day and had to restart through several crashes. The rebuilt library worked, but isn't really acceptable since it changed all the key photos on my events, lost all my facebook albums and slideshows, and seemed to ignore a few days of recent organizing and labeling.
It seems like some idle process (detecting faces maybe) is kicking in whenever iPhoto goes in the background that causes it to crash when it's backgrounded and idle.
The thread that crashed in the crash log is pretty uninformative:

I get no errors in the Console for iphoto when it crashes.
Any help would be appreciated on this painful issue.

  • MICROSOFT WORD CRASHING SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK!!!

    MICROSOFT WORD HAS BASICALLY BECOME A LIABILITY FOR ME.  It has consistently crashed several times a week (while working on a single word document and nothing else open but safari).  It sits there stuck for several minutes until I have no choice
    but to force quit, and then I lose my work (despite several saves...i can't keep saving fast enough). I've had to re-do work on several documents over the course of the past 2 weeks---time which I cannot bill for.  PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

    You should repost your problems with word in the more appropriate Office Community forums, here...

  • Microsoft Word crashes every time I open it.

    I have a 2012 MacBook Pro using Mavericks and every time I try to open Word the program crashes. This is a very new (as in this morning) problem. Do I need to upgrade to Yosemite for Word to work again? I downloaded the Office software for free from my universities website as a student, and now that I'm not a student anymore I'm not sure how to reinstall the software. The image below is the screen I get as soon as I open Word.

    The crash says you have Mavericks, not Yosemite.  10.9.5 is Mavericks, Yosemite is 10.10.    
    But you don't want to upgrade until you isolate the reason for the crash.  It looks like an incomplete installation of Microsoft Office.
    You will need to find the original Office installer disc that installed Office on your machine.  If you never got one, contact the school, or look at these Office alternatives:

  • Microsoft Word crashed. what to do?

    Microsoft Word crashed. what to do?

    It depends on whether or not Microsoft word crashes every time you open it.  If it only crashed one or two times force quit the program.  You can also command q the program.  Reopen the application and if it still does not work then uninstall the application completly.  You can back up any documents you have by putting them on an flash drive or an external drive.  Then reinstall the appliaction.  This would all be one way to do it but I do not neccesarly reccomend unistalling it becuase you might have to pay for the program again when you reinstall it.  If I were you I would download the new version of the program first before deleting the old one.  Then if you do have to pay for the download you can cancel it and find a better solution. Hope this works!

  • Flash CS3: Serious lag when Switching between Applications

    I've got a serious problem with Flash CS 3 on my Macbook Pro,
    which makes it almost unworkable.
    When I'm working in flash, switch to another application
    (Mail, Illustrator, any...) and then switch back to flash. the
    program freezes for at least 9 to 10 seconds: The Menu's are all
    transparant and greyed out, and the only thing I see is the beloved
    "beachball" spinning.
    Needless to say that this makes it very hard to work with the
    program, since switching between apps is a big part of my workflow.
    Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
    I have re-installed the whole CS3 suite (twice) and even
    cleaned up my computer and did a clean install of OS X!!
    I'm running on a 15" mac book pro (2,33) with 2gig memory,
    bought last may.
    Any help is welcome,

    I'm having the same problem as well. I was using Flash 8,
    thought I would upgrade to Flash CS3 and solve the problem but that
    was no good. There's still a long lag time when switching to Flash
    from any other program. Not sure if it's a Memory problem or a Font
    problem. Any word on a solution for this annoying problem?
    I'm running a PowerPC G5 with dual 2.0ghz processors and 2.5
    GB of ram.
    Thanks!

  • Switching between apps launched through RemoteApp from Windows 2008 R2 server

    I have a problem with RemoteApp on Windows 2008 R2 Standard SP1.
    When I try to switch between apps, launched from RD Web Access web-page, it is not always succeded. Instead of it the target app blinks and I still remain at the previous app. In another words, the next app window remains behind the previous
    app window and I have to minimize the previous app before switching to the next app.
    Following the recommendations given by the TechNet Online Chat assistant, I've been installed all the available updates on that server from the Microsoft Update, but it didn't help us.
    Is there any way to resolve this trouble?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Thanks for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Which version of RDP client you are using? I can suggest you to use RDP 8.0 for better assistance. 
    Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) 8.0 update for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2592687
    In addition there are available updates for RemoteApp for server 2008 R2, you can install and check the result.

    Hi all--this worked for me:
    1. Uninstall Office using the Remove Office program.
    2. Remove (trash) the microsoft folder from the fonts folder. Then delete the word plist from your user library preferences folder.
    3. Run disk utility to repair permissions and restart.
    4. Run Snow Leopard cache cleaner and do a deep clean on the cache of your system.
    5. Run Easy Find to find "fontcachetool" (it's an invisiable file, so make sure you enable easyfind to locate invisible files. Trash the fontcachetool file once it's located. Note: I actually had two of these files, and I trashed them both.
    6. Restart.
    7. Run disk utility to repair permissions again, and restart.
    8. Install Office 2008.
    9. Do NOT open any Office programs, and restart.
    10. Install SP 1 (note: I installed this from a disk image. My previous attempts to use the automatic check for updates "feature" in Office to download and install the program did not work--believe me, I uninstalled and reinstalled Office three times before performing the tasks I am listing here. You can download the disk images of the SP here:
    SP 1 (12.1.0): http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=395D1487-A3A6-4106-A0F8 -4D6E1D6D89D2&displaylang=en
    SP 2 (12.2.0): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973254
    Update 3 (12.2.1): http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx?pid=Mactopia_Office2008&fid=9730452B -E6AD-4330-93E4-57F66293BF1C#viewer
    11. Restart
    12. Install 12.2.0. Restart.
    13. Install 12.2.1. Restart
    14. Repair permissions.
    15. Restart.
    So far so good. I hope this helps.

  • Music pauses on my iPhone 5C when switching between apps or when receiving alerts/notifications sometimes (not always) and I have to manually restart the song. I'm running the latest 7.0.1 software. It's a bit annoying.

    Music pauses on my iPhone 5C when switching between apps or when receiving alerts/notifications sometimes (not always) and I have to manually restart the song. I'm running the latest 7.0.1 software. It's a bit annoying.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Microsoft word crashes when I open a file or try to save document

    Every time I try to open an existing document or save a new one Microsoft word crashes.  I am able to start a new document but if I try to save it all of the action/editing buttons fade/unhighlight (save, print, quit, copy paste, etc) and I am ubable to do anything.  However, most of the buttons in view, history, bookmarks, tools, window & help still work.  Then I have to force quit because the option to quit is no longer available.
    Please help.  I can no longer open & create new documents

    Are you using Office 2004 and did you install the recent security update? If so then open Software Update and download and install the new security update version which should fix the issue.

  • What idiots created the "Switch between apps" tab?

    Really?
    Microsoft, you've created a major screw up and offer no solution for this.  I purchased a new laptop, (has a touchscreen), and I can not get rid of the "Switch between apps" tab without restarting the computer. 
    Swiping it does nothing, it stays.  Clicking the top left corner or touching there does nothing.  It just sits there determined to be a pain and take up part of the screen. 
    What idiot designed this function.  Have they been fired? Why does Microsoft refuse to respond with a fix or answer to all of the people asking to resolve this?  
    Really ticked off customer.

    Hi Ticked at Microsoft over the Switch between apps,
    Sorry for this annoying phenomenon, it should not be like this in most situation.
    I want to provide my help to help you  get rid of this issue, instead of restarting your computer.
    Open Local Group Policy Editor, you can press Win+R to get the prompt, type
    gpedit.msc and press Enter.
    In the left pane, click/tap on to expand User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, and Edge UI
    In the right pane of Edge UI, double click/tap on Disable help tips to edit it:
    Set the configuration to Enabled.
    Select Apply and exit Local Group Policy Editor.

  • Switch Between Apps shortcut doesn't work, tip won't go away

    The only solution I could find for this is to move my mouse to the top left of the screen, but it doesn't work when I do. Therefore, whenever I have an app open, the ****ing tip to switch between apps won't leave my screen. Same thing for the tip that
    shows me where the start button is, only when the tip isn't actually there, I can use the button without a hitch. Seriously frustrating considering I haven't had a computer for almost a week and this happened the moment I started it up.

It doesnt do this when you switch withing Bridge and Photoshop, but with anythign else,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, CRASH!!

    I am unable to get into the chat.  I tried explorer and chrome and neither will allow us to access the chat.  It continues to go around and around.

  • How can I switch between apps without going to home screen?

    Is there anyway to switch between apps with one tap? (ie. without going to home screen first). Kind of like a command-tab feature.
    Steve

    Well, you can have one app that you can get to with a double push of the home button (set in settings which you want), but I think it's only your contacts list, or your ipod app. Still useful though.

  • How do I stop Firefox mobile from having to restart when switching between apps?

    When I'm switching between apps, firefox takes 10 seconds to load up again. Why isn't it already loaded since I just had it up? The Opera browser doesn't do that.

    Android automatically closes apps in the background when it needs more memory. To let Firefox run in the background longer, we will need to reduce its memory usage. We are continuing to work on this with each new version of Firefox.
