  • Two finger scroll not working in Microsoft Word for Mac

    Just finished installing Yosemite today and haven't had any real issues...however, I've noticed that two-finger scrolling doesn't work in Microsoft Word for mac. It works fine in many other applications (including other Microsoft apps--Excel & PowerPoint), but not Word.
    I've looked for any scrolling options that may be "unchecked" in the preferences, but haven't found any.

    I'm having the same issue. However, I have restarted and it still won't work. This is extremely frustrating as I have the latest updates and everything but it doesn't work and I keep forgetting every time I try to scroll.
    I'm also having the issue of whenever my Mac goes to sleep or if I turn it off, the log in screen says there are updates necessary. I feel like this is a bug because I've updated my computer like 20 times in the past few days...

  • Can you open with Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft word for Mac?

    Can you open in Pages documents that were created in a 2004 version of Microsoft Word for Mac?

    Pages '09 will open .doc files from Word 2004. The Mac OS is not what is in question. Pages '09 opens Word 2004 documents and if the same version of Pages will run in Lion and in Mountain Lion ..... Thats all that matters.
    I trust you were using MS Office 2004 and would now like to buy Pages?

  • French checker on Microsoft Word for mac

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone got the french spelling/grammar checker on microsoft word for mac to work? I'm not exactly sure how to set it up, so any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!!

    yes - it is included with Word.
    If you haven't installed it get your install disks and do a custom install of proofing tools - lots of languages to choose from.
    Then in Word set the document, or text selection, language to the language you are using. It does the rest.

  • Does Lion support the old microsoft word for MAC files?

    Does Lion support the old microsoft word for MAC  files? I have heard that if i down load  Lion then my Word files for Mac will not function or work. Is this true?? I don't want to download Lion if this happens.

    The file type does not matter, the program you use to open the file does.
    You need a newer version of word (or a third party program).
    You can use openoffice as well.

  • Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 - Forms with drop down fields providing fill-in options upon hovering

    I have been sent a few form documents created in Microsoft Word which contain drop down fields that provide fill-in options upon hovering over those fields on the form.  These form documents end in ".docx".  I do not own Microsoft
    Word for Mac, but am considering buying it or signing up for the Office 365 service for Mac so that I can fill in these fields using the drop down options.  My question is:
    Will Microsoft Word for Mac or the Office 365 for Mac service allow me to use the drop down fields that provide fill-in options upon hovering?  Or is this feature not available when using either Microsoft Word for Mac or the Office 365 service
    on a Mac?
    Any advice would be appreciated.  Thank you!

  • Issues with Microsoft Word for mac closing when I try to open old or newly downloaded documents

    When I download a document from my professor, or try to open an older document, my word automatically quits. If it's already closed and I try to open a document, it will show the dot at the bottom of the icon that it's loading to open but it quickly disappears and quits itself. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or know what I can do to fix it? Thanks.

  • When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

    When attempting to open a hyperlink to a PDF file on the web from a Microsoft WORD for Mac 2011 (14.3.9) document, Safari 7.0 instead displays the file as text?

    As seen in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011-macword/has-the-word- 2011-for-mac-invisible-toolbars/018a3ab6-0570-4ad5-abf8-5b6427fdde3e?msgId=e111b f0a-0e32-4fa3-9536-f349dad8439d
    and it worked for me:
    1. Quit Word
    2. In the Finder's menu bar, select Go > Go to folder and type or paste: ~/Library/Preferences/
    3. Click on Go
    4. Locate the preference file com.microsoft.Word.plist, then Option-drag it to the desktop to create a backup copy
    5. Go to Applications/Utilities and open Terminal
    6. Paste the following bold command at the $ prompt (it's a single line):
         defaults write com.microsoft.Word 14\\Toolbars\\Show_HIToolbar -boolean TRUE
    7. Press Return and then quit with Command Q
    8. Start Word and test. If the fix works, trash the backup file in the Desktop file. Otherwise, restore it.

  • My Microsoft Word for Mac hasn't worked since I downloaded Yosemite. documents can't be save, edited or closed

    My Microsoft Word for Mac hasn't worked since I downloaded the upgrade to Yosemite.  Documents can't be saved, edited or closed

    Hi There,
    I have similar issues with the whole MS Office solution since I "upgraded' towards Yosemite:
    when I use Cmd+W or the "close" menu option to close a Word file, Word crashes down (I always send a message to Microsoft but I guess this is more related to Yosemite or to its installation; consequence is it become very difficult to close a file, as it re-opens it the next time :-(
    same thing for Excel and PowerPoint
    When I try to save in PDF format a Word file containing several sections, it produces one PDF file per section - wasn't before Yosemite
    Excel crashes down much more often than before because of lack of memory
    Well, if someone has a suggestion, I would be grateful, 'cause it is becoming actually boring - and counter-productive !
