MS Office 2008 Update: fixes some print issues?

I noticed the first update for Office 2008 is out, and one "fix" they list for Word is:
Blank pages are no longer printed when you print to a high resolution printer. This update fixes an issue in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard that causes blank pages to print when you print to a high resolution printer.
I know people have struggled with Samsung and other printers and Word since Leopard released. I do not have one of the affected printers so cannot test it.
The updater is here:

  • I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed.

    I uninstalled itunes to fix some ipod issues, and now I tried to reinstall it but it says that it's already installed. When I went to find the "icon" I can"t find it. When i looked in the download files I saw the downloads, but not the actual itunes "app". Please help thanks!

    How did you uninstall it and what were your IPOD issues - that may help clarify the problem.

    The changes here are mostly fixing some sizing issues.
    For the FlashContainerPlaceholder, the first child is now MyFlexContentHolder, which extends mx.flash.FlexContentHolder but meets the invariant that it has 1 child and that child is FlexContentHolderThumbnail, which I?\226?\128?\153ve added as a swc to the project. I changed this by accident last time to refer to mx.flash.FlexContentHolder, when it should've referred to a concrete instance created by Flash from a swc. I also added a chrome of 151x151 to match the FlexContentHolderThumbnail since otherwise the container itself would have no chrome at all, and this let?\226?\128?\153s it size correctly.
    Also, for sizing, in a container, rather than sizing to the size of the chrome, I now size to the size of the FlexContentHolder thumbnail that all FlexContentHolder?\226?\128?\153s have. This means in ContainerMovieClip, I don?\226?\128?\153t need to override bounds anymore.
    ContainerMovieClip now implements IVisualElementContainer.
    Also, I fixed a resizing event bug in UIMovieClip where the resize event was getting dispatched more than once.

    Hi Chanh
    I have not come upto the level of testing the file generated with IRS.  Will keep you posted what happens there.
    Shannon,
    Apparently the new version of 1546868 fixes the issue for box number 7.  But if the amounts are huge in box numbers 1 or 3 or 15a (they use these in my client) then the amount overflows to the nearby box.  So we have again opened an issue again with SAP & will keep you posted withwhat SAP comes up with.
    Thanks
    Regards
    Morgan

  • Crashing Computer after Office 2008 Update!

    Late last week I downloaded the latest "critical update" for Office 2008 for Mac and ever since then my computer crashes about every 30 minutes.  When I open Entourage i usually get an Microsoft error report and everything locks up.  Any ideas?

    Have you rebooted the Mac?  (Not sleep, but shut down or restart.)  While most Office updates do not require a restart, often rebooting "fixes" many problems.  Then have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Office?  Do other apps crash?  (i.e.: can you open Mail, Safari, iCal, etc?)  If the other apps are ok, then you may want to ask in the Office for Mac forums since it's likely an Office issue and not a Mac issue.

  • Acrobat 9.0 Pro and Office 2008 updates download but won't install

    I hope I'm not alone experiencing the following difficulties installing third party patches and updates and that someone who reads this may recognize the problem…and its solution. I've run Adobe Updater (6?) for CS4 Design Standard which includes Acrobat 9.0 Professional, and subsequently, Microsoft Autoupdate for Office 2008 v12.0.1, but find that neither will install the downloaded updates which disappear immediately after an (unsuccessful) installation attempt.
    Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD) nor is memory (4GB RAM); I'm using OS 10.6.4 (10F569) which is the most current set of OS updates I can locate. I had successfully been running CS4 with Adobe's most recent patches (e.g. P'Shop 11.0.2 and Acrobat 9.3.3) until the 9.3.4 patch failed to install with the message that +"Safari and Acrobat apps must be closed in order to proceed"+—they were closed as was everything else that wasn't essential according to a check of the Acitivity Window. A grab of the alert panel reads:
    +"AcroProUPd934_all Update Failed: The Patch has failed because the application has been modified since it was originally installed (for example, plug-ins may have been disabled). Please go to the Adobe support website for more information regarding how to re-enable disabled components prior to installing the patch, or you can uninstall and reinstall the application, and then reinstall the patch."+
    Of course, uninstalling CS4 and reinstalling the entire suite of apps reverts all of them to their original versions, now none of them will accept an update…whether manually downloaded and fed to it or by using Adobe's most recent AutoUpdater. The most consistent message is an alert panel stating that in order to continue, Safari and Acrobat applications must be closed—which they are.
    Not surprisingly, after nearly 8 hours on a cell phone with Adobe Tech Support in Delhi, 5 different techs and a manager, the case remains open a week later; it seems +"no one has ever seen or heard of this problem before"+ and an overly apologetic manager could only repeat +"it's [Adobe] policy to remove all copies of CS4 from existence once CS5 is introduced."+ While we waited for 500MB of updates to download more than once, a helpful tech suggested I'd have more luck finding a used copy of CS4 on the net than getting a link to another download from Adobe.
    With regard to Microsoft Office 2008, I'd been running v12.0.1 and the MS Autoupdate app has tried to download and install v12.1.0 (and those which follow) but when installation is attempted, an alert panel reads:
    +"There is a problem with the Office database. Office might be unable to access the data base or the database file might be damaged. Without the database, you might be unable to use the Address Book, Scrapbook, and other features that store your personal information. To rebuild the database, Open Microsoft Office 2008/Office, and then open the Microsoft Database Utility. For more information, open the Database Utility application, and on the Help menu, click Database Utility Help."+
    All attempts to rebuild the database fail, noting…
    +ERROR: Failed to open database [Head]+
    +ERROR: Corruption opening database [16003:""]+
    ======================
    +Scan Ended+
    ====================
    Two hours on the phone with a relentlessly pleasant Nova Scotian tech for Microsoft revealed little but the suggestion that +"the app doesn't seem to be able to recognize your hard drive. I've never seen this problem before."+
    With luck, perhaps someone reading this far recognizes the issue and can offer a solution? It will be gratefully received! Thanks,
    David

    Disk space is not a problem (500GB HD)
    How much space is available out of the 500GB?
    Have you tried any of the following:
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select *Disk Utility.*
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
    Click _*Repair Disk.*_
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=25751 and try the installations again.

  • Does the Imovie 6.0.3 update fix the stability issues?

    Hi,
    Been using Imovie 6.0.2 a fair bit lately, and have had quite a few crashes. I see from this forum that I'm not the only one.
    I haven't yet been able to update to the latest version (6.0.3) released last week, and would like some user experience opinions about whether the update has fixed the stability issues. Anybody noticed any improvements or otherwise?
    My crashes seem to happen pretty randomly, it could be when you're putting a transition in, or just when you click Play or move the playhead. Any time really. I get the little spinning circle and Imovie is hung. Tried leaving it for ages just in case it was eventually going to return, but it doesn't.
    Has the patch fixed it?
    cheers,
    Ian

    Software Update says I have nothing that needs updated. Since I know this isnt true, I went to Downloads and attempted to install both updates--it stopped and said I had to go back to the previous download. After a couple journeys back to nowhere, I gave up.

  • Office 2008 update to 12.1.0 fails on 10.6.2

    I have just received my new iMac which came with 10.6.2 pre-installed. I have installed Office 2008 which then searches for updates and finds it needs 12.1.0 which it downloads. Half way through installing, after "writing files" and somewhere in something like "running package scripts" it skips suddenly to the end saying the installation failed. I have tried this many times, uninstalling Office and starting from scratch with reboots in between all to no avail.
    Anyone have any ideas? Anyone know where to look for an error message?
    I have a Office 2008 on my MacBookPro with 10.6.2 working fine but I think I did the updates when it was at 10.6.0 . . .

    I'm running v12.2.3 on Office 2008, which is the latest update and I have no issues at all.

  • Future Office 2008 updates with OS X v10.7 Lion

    I understand Office 2008 is compatable with Lion but its installer is not. Down the road if MS has an update for Office 2008, will it be possible to do the update with the issue of the incompatible installer?

    It should say which OS it works with on the side of the box (or download site) or on the manufacturers website?

  • Microsoft Office 2008 Update Loop/Glitch for Survey

    I just downloaded the new update for Microsoft Office 2008 and once I'm finished with it, a screen pops up prompting me to either take an anonymous survey or forgo it. Once past that screen it'll ask me to either register this product or learn more. Even when I try to register it mactopia never loads up and no matter what I try to open Office will only give me that screen.
    It does this when I try to open a new blank document, or try to open an existing file.
    Is there a glitch and a patch available to fix it? Or is there any way to bypass the survey?
    SOS I need to write papers and take notes!!

    I cam up with this fix from another forum that worked for me.
    'If you are experiencing this problem, delete the following files:
    ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2008/Microsoft Office 2008 Settings.plist
    /Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/Office/OfficePID.plist
    then launch any Office 2008 application and enter your Office 2008 serial number again...

  • Office 2008 update to 2011

    I bought the Office 2008 student version (3 liscences) and then updated it to 2011 by web. I installed it on my new iMac. Now I am going to buy and Air and want to install the 2008 version and update to 2011 again. I thought I read somewhere that this had to be done by the end of this year. If that is the case then will I need to buy Office again?

    Depends on how many copies you upgraded. From what I'm reading, the upgrade is for a single license only. You can't assume that if you bought a 3-license 2008, that the upgrade is 3-license also.
    I'd talk to Microsoft on how they are going to handle this. But, either way, any of these upgrades MUST be registered to them by the 31st.

  • Office 2008 with 10.5.2 Issues

    I want to install Office 2008 but I hear there are all sorts of issues with it; font problems, security permissions etc.
    Will Office 2008 mess up my perfectly stable and speedy 10.5.2 system / fonts / system files? Is there a clean way of uninstalling office 2008 if I need to?
    Currently I use Office 2007 under Parallels but it is too heavy-weight to boot up windows every time I want to use Office.
    Your advice will be well received.

    Greetings,
    I'm using Office 2008 with Leopard 10.5.2 and I don't have any issues that I know of. I use Excel and Word nearly all day. I haven't really heard of any issues, until now. I use iWork as well and haven't seen any font issues there either.
    I run Parallels and I infected my Mac with Vista Enterprise and Office 2007 - it all works as advertised, for me, the Mac and the Windoze part.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.
