Microsoft word: rotate photos.  Apple: rename photos

Hello, I am new to apple, and English...
I have two problems:
Microsoft word. I want to rotate a photo inserted in one of my word document, I can see the function "rotate" in the tool box but this is not working. When I click on the rotate option, every options appear in pale gray, and don't seem to be activated. Right click on the rotate function is also coming up with pale gray options....Is rotate photo not activated on my word or is it not possible to rotate a photo with apple on a word document?
Rename photos. I can rename one photo at a time, but I can't rename more than one at the same time??? if I select all the photos I want to rename, i can't find an option to rename all of the selected photos. I found the answer on the support web site for one photo only. Do you know if I can rename many photos at the same time or is it not possible with apple?
Any help would be very appreciated,
many thanks in advance,
Yannick

Rotate in MS Word 2008 works fine for me so it's possible your installation is corrupt. Below are the steps I used to rotate:
1. With the photo in the MS Word document ensure it's selected.
2. Open the Toolbox
3. Open the Formatting Palette
4. Towards the bottom of that palette locate Size, Rotation, and Ordering and then rotate using that tool.
For your photos I would recommend creating an Automator routine for doing that. Here is a an article that shows how to do 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?

  • Microsoft Word- printing a books?

    I can't seem to figure out to get my Microsoft word to print a book. On a Windows PC, there is the option to print a document in booklet form, where the pages are doubled and you can print entire books this way.
    i see a lot of questions about Aperture in relation to book printing, but I don't want to pay for printing my books nor do I want to have to save it in PDF. What a giant pain. Am I just too daft to find the option for printing bookfolds in Microsoft Word or was Apple being a greedy monopolizing cretin by removing that option and forcing us to buy Aperture?
    P.S. If anyone has any freeware that doesn't require PDF conversion and is simple, please do tell. Thanks.

    Office comes with extensive help. I suggest you take the time to look in the help files for the answer. Word is quite capable of printing in book form but your document layout needs to be properly configured.

  • Will iWork open Microsoft Word & Excel documents ?

    Do I need to install Microsoft Word & Excel or Apple iWork to open documents that are emailed in Word & Excel ? I am going to run Windows XP Pro on this machine.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    Apples iWork or better said Pages can open Word documents and Numbers can open Excel documents.
    But iWork is only avaiable for Mac OSX, not for Windows.
    When running Windows you either need the MS Office package (or MS Word and MS Excel as standalone programs) or you can use the free OpenOffice http://www.openoffice.org/
    OpenOffice is also avaiable for Mac OSX.

  • Why can I drag and drop from Photos to Pages, but not to Microsoft Word 2011

    I'm unable, under OS X 10.10.3, to drag and drop pictures from Photo into Word for Mac 2011.  I can paste from Photos into Pages.  How can I add Word to the list of programs that can take pasted photos pasted from Photos

    Drag and Drop support is done programmatically as part of the application design. There is no user settable configuration, or list of programs that you can add Word too. Apple has supported drag and drop in Pages for a long time, and from iPhoto or Aperture picture libraries. Microsoft chose another path.
    I don't have Office for Mac 2011, but I can state that Word 15.8.1 in Office for Mac 2015 Preview does not accept drag/drop of images from Photos either. It compensates by offering Insert ▸ Pictures ▸ Photo Browser… and when selected, displays an image panel not unlike Pages offers when clicking images from its Toolbar. At the top of this Word Preview panel is the Photos logo. It is from this Photos browser panel, that Word Preview accepts drag/drop of images. It may be that way in Word in Office for Mac 2011 too.

  • Just found out that I can't run microsoft word or adobe photo shop with Mavericks, any way to solve this?

    Just found out that I can't run microsoft word or adobe photo shop with Mavericks, is there a way to make this work?

    You must be using very old versions (Office 2004 or older, Photoshop CS2 or older).
    Upgrade to newer, or current versions.

  • Changing photo format from "microsoft word doc" to jpeg or other supported photoshop format

    hi --
    on my windows XP (home edition) i have many photos stored under "my documents." one is categorized as a "microsoft word document," despite the fact that it is a photo (this may be b/c i was very unskilled at the computer when i scanned this photo in and thus selected the wrong format? i'm still not "skilled" but i'm doing better!).
    when i tried to import this photo into my photoshop album (starter edition 3.0), i got a message that says "format not supported" or something similar. how do i change the format of the photo so that it will be accepted into my photoshop album? i haven't had any trouble with photos in other formats (jpeg, etc.).
    thanks very much for any assistance -- susie margaret

    On my other computer I have a different photo software. Once I download the pictures from the card reader and left click on the photo I want, it simply gives me a choice to save it in the computer, under MY PICTURE or desktop etc. in jpg.
    When I left click on the picture on the adobe photoshop 2.0 starter edition, it gives many choices such as : copy,turn, edit, but not saving.
    How do I save it on the computer to add it to a real estate home sells website for pictures on the home advertisement or virtual tour. Also when the pictures were read off of the card reader it popped out all of the pictures 120 of them. I only need 3 of them saved. Please tell me step by step . Thank you.

  • Is there an app to rename photos on iPhone.

    I take pictures on the fly for a business.  But I need to rename them to keep track of things.  Plus I have to email the pictures from my phone and they must be renamed before the client receives them.
    I've searched all over the internet to see if there is a way to do it by default but it seems there is not a way.  I've searched for apps but the only one I can is "Flowsee".  And this app doesn't work.  It absolutely *****.  And the renamed files get hidden and difficult to access.  Long story short, it's not user friendly.  It's also very slow and bogs down system.
    Thanks for any

    I have not used it, but I did find it in the apple store (photo-sort) and read enough reviews that I would buy it if needed. 
    There are 370 ratings averaging 2.5 stars, and 156 reviews.  Many of the one star reviewers simply say it doesn't do what it claims, but several five star reviewers say it does work, and you just need to use it properly.  One very helpful review talked about renaming files - found a bug that causes the app to close if your rename changed the first character of the file name, but when opened again, the file has been correctly named.  This could be annoying if you are doing a lot of files, but it is also something that you could expect a fix for.  I've bought apps for $1.99 when I knew I was taking a chance, but really needed the functionality.  It's not a lot of money to lose, IMO.  I suggest you check out the reviews yourself.

  • Rename Photos in Gallery - C5

    When I try to rename photo in gallery, if I use the upper case when I confirm the operation the phone save the name but in lower case.
    If I try to rename again the same photo, if I type in Upper case the same text the phone show me that there is another file with the same name.
    With my old nokia N70 I didn't had this problem.
    Thanks.

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
    You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.

  • Renaming Photos Advice Not Effective

    I've gone over the posts on this topic until I can't think straight. Old Toad told someone (a few people, actually) that to rename photos in iPhoto, you must first make a new folder on the desktop, move the photos to it, change the name, then move it back to iPhoto with the new name. I tried that; however, when I began the move, MacBook changed my application from iPhoto to Finder. Old Toad also said that if the photos are changed in Finder, they won't be recognizable to iPhoto and will disappear. If MacBook is going to be changing me to Finder just through the act of moving the photos from iPhoto to something else, how does one follow this advice?
    To be fair to you, I'm a new user of Apple, and I don't yet subscribe to the idea that the Mac is THE way of finding ease in home computing. iPhoto is the best example I can think of to demonstrate that it just plain ain't.

    You don't have to move them to your PC to rename them. For the photos that are already in your library what you can do is....rename right within iPhoto by giving them titles. You will have to give each photo a distinctive title so they all have different titles. This is one reason why iPhoto does not change the name of the photo in the Finder. What if you named two photos taken on the same day "John". You can't have two files in the same folder with the same name. That is why titles you give in iPhoto, stay within iPhoto and do not change in the Finder.
    Anyway, getting back to what you want to do...after you rename them in iPhoto, then share>export each roll to a new folder on the desktop. In the export window, choose "title" as the naming scheme. Once all rolls are exported to their respective folders one the desktop, close iPhoto.
    Now navigate to the Pictures folder and rename the iPhoto Library folder to "iPhoto Library_old"
    Launch iPhoto and it will ask you to "create" or "choose" and iPhoto library to open.
    Hit "create"
    Name the new library
    Once the new library is open, drag your folders on the desktop one at a time into an open iPhoto Library viewing window.
    Once all the folders are imported you will now have the photos having the same name in the finder that they will have within iPhoto.
    You can delete the old library and all the folders on the desktop now.
    In the future, use Image Capture to download your images to the Pictures folder. Put them in a dated folder and then rename the photos. Remember you can't give two photos the same name. Once the photos are renamed then you can import that folder into iPhoto. Once imported, you can then delete the folder or save it to burn for backup.
    iPhoto: How to Change the "Open Automatically" Preference
    I have to tell you though, I think that this a lot of work for something that really doesn't need to be done. I find it to time consuming to rename photos. I always keep the name given from the camera. I don't even title them in iPhoto. I do give all my photos keywords to make it easy to find the photos I want.

  • How can I control the music that plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

    I don't want to make my parents listen to Breaking Benjamin music as they watch my photo slide shows on Apple TV. Need something more sedate. But if a B.B. song is in my iTunes music library, it is a candidate for random selection as background music for my slide shows. How do I control what music plays during Apple TV photo slide shows?

    What I find is really silly, is the fact the music video's are listed under that artists albums in the Music menu. And when you go into the video 'album' (called 'Unknown' unless you change it) there is an option to shuffle the tracks. Clicking this just results in an error message. So, they should either remove that option if it is a video album, or, better yet, GET IT TO WORK. So silly of them to omit this.

  • I have edited photos in i-photo and would like to have them printed.  How do i burn them to disc in a format that a windows PC system can read.  I am in India and this is definitely "microsoft" country!  thanks for taking the time to guide me.

    I have edited photos in i-photo and would like to have them printed at any photo development lab.  I am in India and this is definitely "microsoft" country !
    Please advise me how to burn these edited photos to a disc to take to the nearest printing store in a format that "windows" system can understand.
    Thanks in advance.  I look forward to learning about this. 

    Select the pics in the viPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export them to a folder on the desktop. Burn that to disk with the Finder's burn command. Result. A disk with a folder of images that any machine can understand.

  • What does Mac or apple use for microsoft word and excel?

    What do I need to buy or download to get Microsoft word and excel and PowerPoint ?

    Microsoft makes an Apple version of Office here:

    In my humble opinion, Apple's product is better - and completely compatible with Office.  It is also about 1/2 as expensive:
