Microsoft Word redrawing with external projector is very annoying

Hi:
I have a MacBook Pro with 2Ghz and 1.5 GB RAM. I usually connect a Sony projector as a second display to review documents in collaboration with others. While using MS Word (in Page View) with "Track Changes" enabled, the screen redraws every time I make a change on the document, which is very annoying.
This also happens when I am not connected to the projector (i.e. using the built-in display).
I am guessing this has something to do with processor speed, graphics card and/or the fact that Office is still not a Universal Binary application.
Does anyone know how I can minimize the annoying redrawing?
Thanks,

Convert 1 single microsoft word document with section breaks to multiple pdf files

I am a windows 7 users. I have a single microsoft word document which contain 1500 pages. These 1500 pages are seperated by sections breaks in the microsoft word. I am trying to convert this word document to multiple pdf files seperated by the section breaks in the Microsoft word. How can I convert the single microsoft word document with section breaks to multiple seperate pdf files?

Acrobat (Adobe PDF Printer and PDFMaker ) doesn't recognize the Section breaks. It never has as far as I am aware. The easiest thing to do is to manually break up a copy of the MS Word Document into the Sections you need and then create the PDFs from those MS Word documents.

HELP!!!! I have spent hours trying to find out how to embed an image with a link or a Microsoft Word document with a hyperlink built within the document -- not as an attachment! Does ANYONE know the secret? Can it be done, or not! My PC clients do it.

HELP!!!! I have spent hours trying to find out how to embed an image with a link, or embed a Microsoft Word document with a hyperlink built within the document -- not as an attachment into my email -- but where it shows as the email content when opened! Does ANYONE know the secret? Can it be done, or not? My PC clients do it all the time easily. Then I want to be able to send the embedded image/document (not as an attachment, but visable within the email when opened) to many email contacts at once, BUT the individuals receiveing them DO NOT SEE the other email contacts. Cannot seem to be able to find anything on being able to do these 2 tasks.PLEASE, SOMEONE, HELP!!!

Push Microsoft Word settings with ARD

Can someone tell me how to push Microsoft Word settings with ARD?
Basically I have been tasked with figuring out how to default save as .docx in Office 2008 and Office 2011.
I have 50+ users and I'd like to be able to push this settings change using ARD.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

If anyone comes across this thread looking for an answer, here it is.
Basically what I was told:
That particular setting is stored in the following file:
/Users/USER_NAME/Library/Preferences/com.microsoft.Word.plist [likewise for PowerPoint and Excel]
However, be aware that you'd also be replacing several customizations that they may have, as well as other parameters (like last folder used). Perhaps it would be better to access each machine, load up Word and set whatever setting you want through the Screen Sharing feature.

Orginally I downloaded OFFICE from the Apple Store App, so unable to reinstall as it suggest.

Which version of Office, 2004, 2008 or 2011
and
MS Office is not available from the App Store, so where did you get it?

On iPad can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages app?

On iPad, can I open a Microsoft word file with apple pages application? If so how do I perform this activity?

Yes you can open Word files. If it is an email attachment you can simply tap and hold down on the icon and select "open in" and then select Pages - as long as you have the Pages app on the iPad.
Where is the file on your iPad or how do you want to move it to the iPad?

I'm running OSX 10.8.5 Mountain Lion. What version of QuarkXpress and Microsoft Word run with this level? My older versions are no longer supported.

Hi Jrehoboth,
please see here: http://forums.quark.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=4608
At the bottom of the post we summarized which version you can run on each version of OS X:
So if your operating system is OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) then you can use QuarkXPress 9 & QuarkXPress 10 and soon QuarkXPress 2015.

Integrating Microsoft Word documents with ADF BC and JClient technologies

Hi,
We are developing a Police Management System in JAVA with the Oracle Jdeveloper 10.1.2.0.0. We are using for the access to the data, in the businesses tier, the ADF Business Component Technology and for the User Interface, in the client tier, the JClient for ADF Technology. The used Database is Oracle Enterprise Edition 10.1.0.3.0. with the intermedia option.
We were looking for ways to upload and insert Microsoft Word Documents into a view object using JClient on the client tier. We have found the following options:
1) Oracle Intermedia database datatype ORDSYS.ORDDOC and their corresponding ADF Business Compomnents domains -> The problem is using Jclient on the client tier. In Oracle JDeveloper 10g, developers will not be able to create new applications using JClient interMedia controls. JUImage (limited to images only) is the JClient control available to access multimedia in the database.
2) Oracle COM Automation Feature -> We were studying the possibility to built a solution with Oracle and Microsoft Word using Oracle COM Automation Feature for Java. The problem is Oracle COM Automation Feature requires Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Server 2003. We are using a database on linux, therefore this option is not valid.
3) CLOBs in database and theirs corresponding ADF Business Components domains -> But I don't know how to use ADF BC objects in JClient tier.
Can someone please help?
Thanks,
Patri

Hi,
I have worked with BLOBS or CLOBS and their corresponidng ADF Business Components domains, but I don't know how to use ADF BC objects in JClient tier.
To sum up, I want to upload, insert and view microsoft word documents by using a JClient application using ADF/BC4J components.
Thanks,
Patri

Just moved from microsoft word, struggling with one thing . . the view

I've just recently started using pages rather then microsoft word.
It seems great, but there is one thing that I'm struggling with, the page view
No Matter what I do I can't seem to show the pages left border (from the perspective of looking at the computer screen)
In word you can see the entire page, then there is space where it finished and around the sides.
I can't seem to get the view to show the space around the top of the first page and the left border of all the pages.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance

What about the view - one up option? I see it in the help but I don't see it in my document. When I click on View, I don't see one up as an option.
Anyone know if there's a way to see one page above/below the other, rather than spread out side by side?
It's not in the View menu. One-up & two-up is in the percentage box at the bottom left of the document.

Trackpad cursor gets jumpy with external projector...

I have a circa 2010 MacBook. I have been using it for 3 years with various problems here and there, but I just can't figure this one out.
I am a teacher, and I moved to a new classroom this year. The room has an overhead projector, Epson, and I hook it up to my mac through the minidisplay adapter (same style as Thunderbolt).
I have been using external monitors and projectors with this machine and they have worked fine. But with this projector on this day, every time I plug in and turn it on, the cursor gets all buggy and starts flying all over the place. If I plug in with the projector off, it's fine. If I plug into my external monitor, it works fine. It's just this particular projector in this room.
I have restarted the computer, and I still have this problem. Not sure what else to do. It's not a trackpad issue... it's only with this projector. Thanks!

...it should say 4 GB of RAM of course...

Microsoft Word crashes with snow leopard. need help! this is aweful

I installed snow leopard and since then every time i open a word document on my Microsoft word (mac 2008), it crashes and does not open. i can open word and start typing a new doc, save it and then open that one and it works. but if i try to open a document that i created before snow leopard (regular leopard), it crashes right away. please help because i am a college student and i need to access my docs!!!

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.

Problem with external projectors

Hello
I'm a teacher using a Macbook pro late 2011 with newly installed Mavericks. Since the update all projectors in my school show a very weak picture of my documents. Signs in word, Power Point, Pdfs are not legible anymore. I tried all kinds of changes in monitors, but with no success.
Has anyone any suggestions?
The problem is consistent. It's the same if I use a new projector or an old one (we have different in different classrooms).

Addendum:
This problem shows only with my Macbook Pro Late 2011. Desperate I have just bought a 2013 Macbook Pro and with this machine the projection works perfectly. Both computers have OSX Mavericks (the older Macbook Pro with a clean install).
Any ideas anybody?

Microsoft Word problem with PDF Mac OS

Using Word from Office 2011 under Snow Leopard, if I use the normal 'Print>Save as PDF' the resulting PDF makes my Acrobat Pro 9 hang and I have to force quit it. Saving the files a .doc format makes no difference. I did not have this problem with Office 2004 and Snow Leopard.
If instead I open the resulting PDF in Preview and then run 'Print>Save as Adobe PDF' the file will work in Acrobat 9.
Excel does produce a working PDF via the 'Print>Save as PDF' route as does Mail.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts?

I, too unexpectedly ran into this problem yesterday while doing my [usually] routine client billing. I have an invoice template in MS Word (now version 2011), and I create PDF copies and email them to my clients.
I spent half the day yesterday trying to get to the bottom of this issue, and it was certainly comforting to see in the forum that at least a few other people are experiencing the same symptoms. I have now verified everything that others have reported in this thread:
1. The problem occurs when saving a text document (MS Word 2011 or Apple Text Edit in Rich Text mode) to PDF using the PDF conversion tools in the Mac OS Print dialog (Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF).
2. The problem only occurs when your document contains OpenType PostScript fonts (e.g Adobe's Myriad Pro, Minion Pro, etc.) The problem does not occur when you're document contains only Adobe PostScript Type 1 fonts, TrueType fonts, or OpenType True Type fonts from Microsoft (e.g. Calibri or Cambria)
3. Apple's Preview application is impervious to this problem, but Adobe Acrobat 9 (Mac or PC) chokes on files generated this way.
4. If you generate the PDF using the simple "Save as PDF" in the Mac OS Print dialog, the file will seemingly save ok, but Acrobat 9 will hang when it tries to open the file.
5. If you generate the PDF using the "Save as Adobe PDF" option in the Mac OS Print dialog, the PDF exporter will hang, and the file will not get generated.
6. If you generate the PDF by saving the PDF Preview from Word or by opening the "simply" generated PDF in Apple Preview and then re-save the PDF, Acrobat 9 will open the file but display alphabet soup wherever the OpenType PostScript font was used.
7. For some reason, neither Excel and PowerPoint 2011 seem to exhibit this problem when using OpenType PostScript fonts and exporting to PDF from the Mac OS Print dialog.
Now, here's the clincher: This problem DOES NOT OCCUR if your Mac is running the previous version of Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6.6).
I purchased a new MacBook Pro laptop a couple months ago, and about two weeks ago, Apple pushed out what they called the Mac OS X 10.6.7 update for "early 2011 MacBookPro computers." Naturally, I installed the updgrade back then, and this is the first time I've exercised the PDF export from Word since then.
I also have a MacPro tower, which is still running OS 10.6.6, and I can export PDF documents contaiing OpenType PostScript fonts with no problem in Acrobat from that machine.
Bottom Line: Apple's latest Snow Leopard upgrade to OS 10.6.7 is causing this problem, but getting it fixed is going to require cooperation between Apple, Adobe and Microsoft...
In the mean time, if you're using Apple's Time Machine and you want to revert your Mac OS to version 10.6.6, here's a link to an Apple Tech Note about how to do that: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/15216.html
I've contacted Tech Support at all three companies, and of course, each one thinks that it's the other comany's problem...but perhaps since this essentially an Adobe Acrobat issue, Adobe can take the lead in troubleshooting it.

Importing Microsoft Word document with images to InDesign CS5

Hey,
I'm trying to import a MS Word document that contains inline images to InDesign CS5.
I tried File->Place with checking "Import Inline Graphics" but unfortunately it imports the document without the images, there are blank regions where the images are suppose to be.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Kathy

Yes, aligning image on its own paragraph works, I will skip wraping text inside paragraph, this can be done inside InDesign. Here is one part of Internet PDF books I am talking about, both are in Serbian http://issuu.com/bojan_zivkovic/docs/prikazivanje_slika_u_adobe_photoshop_elements - word + indesign, http://www.scribd.com/doc/49583823/Nau%C4%8Dite-Adobe-Photoshop - indesign only
Basicaly I am writing tutorials then turn them into PDF books, for now.
Thank you, I never try to insert image on its own paragraph.
