MS Office Programs won't open after installing Service Pack 1?

Hello
I'm working on an inherited MacBook Pro, and Installing the MS Office 2008 program from my employer, an online educator. The program installs, but I can't open any of the applications except for Entourage.
Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Barb

I suggest you post your question on Microsoft's own forums for their Mac products, as it's their software you're having issues with:

  • Lost al .pages and .numbers docs , iphoto and office programs won't open after changing: auto startup in: startup with password. all personal settings are also gone

    in finder i can find several .doc documents and i can see that all my pictures are still on the system, But i can't open them.
    i was so stupid not to use time machine. But is there way to recover the system with my documents or something??

    Nope, without any backup they're probably gone for good. If you want you can purchase some data recovery software such as Data Rescue. I hope this may be a lesson why it's critical to backup your system, Time Machine is a good place to start.
    BTW when posting please use proper grammar, it's difficult to read a post when no caps are used.
    Good luck!

  • Motion 3 Won't Open After Installing

    Hi,
    I reinstalled Motion 3 after doing it 2 days ago because the beach ball keeps coming up and never leaves causing me to force quit. I let it stay up one night and when i awoke 8 hours later it was still up. thus, i reinstalled after trashing it. there's never any motion files in the library to delete and no motion files in the receipts. this time it won't open after installing it and booting down computer. I have lion 10.7.5   the fcp studio disk that i install for motion says version 3 but could have sworn on the computer when it was working it said motion 4. Any suggestions? did all my software updates too.
    Thanks,
    joe

    Motion 3 is part of Final Cut Studio 2. There are many threads on these boards about trying to get those apps to install properly on OS versions above 10.6.8. Here's one such thread. A search will bring up additional ones.

  • Aperture 3.4.1 won't open after install

    Aperture 3.4.1 wont open after install.  it says my graphics card isn't supported.  Here's my card ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB, but I can't find specs required for 3.4.1, so I got no idea

    Here is the Error Message I get
    "The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture."
    Here is my hardware profile:

    Went by the Apple store and they didn't have anybody that had seen this one yet.  Going by tomorrow for a deeper dive to see if they can find any issue with hardware.  Seems like they should have found this before release.  I suppose it could be an old card.  My iMac is from 2007, so it could be that they have passed it by.  I just want to knowwhat I need to get next.  Ill reply to this tomorrow if it gets resolved

  • How can I open a picture file in PS Elements after installing service pack 2?

    Since I installed service pack 2 on my HP computer a week or two ago, the Photoshop "Open" tab no longer appears at the top of my Pictures screen, but rather a "Preview" tab, and I haven't been able to open a picture in Photoshop.  Instead, when I double click on a picture, it opens in Windows Picture Gallery.  Not long after I installed service pack 2, I also changed my default browser from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.  Thanks...

    Reinstall PSE or manualyl adjust your file associations.

  • Labview won't close down properly after installing Service Pack 2

    Hi,
    We installed Service Pack 2 for Windows XP recently and ever since, I've had trouble closing down Labview. I'm using Labview 6.1 and whenever I try to close it down, it won't fully close down and I have to use Task Manager to shut it down.
    What happens is that I get a minimised window on the bottom of the screen that won't go away.
    Has anybody seen this before and can anybody help.
    Thanks,
    Kenneth

    In my experience, SP2 for XP introduced a whole lot of bugs and mishaps. You would be better off uninstalling SP2 if you can. If you want to keep SP2, you may have to uninstall Labview, then re-install it.
    I personally can't confirm this statement. I have XP SP2 with the latest patches applied and I have not really problems with LabVIEW 6.0, 6.1, 7.0, and 7.1. Only NI-Max likes to crash sometimes but since it is a notebook I have little reason to run NI-Max until now.

  • Fix for continuous reboot after installing Service Pack 3 in Windows XP

    After contacting HP Technical Support and speaking to a supervisor we were able to solve the problem of Windows continuously rebooting after installing SP3. Here are the steps that fixed the problem with my HP Pavilion running on an AMD processor. The steps are actually fairly straight forward and easy....
    Issue: The computer reboots continuously after installing Windows XP service pack 3
    Computer reboots continuously after installing Windows XP service pack 3 on AMD systems. The problem is that with some configurations, SP3 causes the computer to crash during boot, and Windows XP, by default, is set up to automatically reboot when it crashes. That is why you end up in the endless rebooting scenario.
    Cause:
    On HP computers, the same Windows installation disc image for Intel processor based PC's is deployed for the AMD processor based computers as well. Because the original installation image for both Intel and AMD is the same, all have the intelppm.sys driver installed and running. That driver provides power management on Intel-based computers. On an AMD-based computer, amdk8.sys provides the same functionality for power management.
    Symptoms:
    Ordinarily, having intelppm.sys running on an AMD-based computer appears to cause no problems. However, on the first reboot after a Service Pack 3 installation, it causes a big problem. The computer either fails to boot, or crashes with a STOP error code of 0x0000007e.
    You may not see the error code because the computer reboots too fast. In order to get the error message, you need to set an option during startup. To do so, open the windows advanced menu by tapping the f8 key on startup. Then select the "Disable automatic restart on system failure" option.
    Solution:
    If you have an AMD-based computer, however, you do not need the intelppm.sys driver and can disable it. There are three methods in order to do this.
    Step 1: Please try to log on the system in safe mode.
    1. While using Safe mode open the command prompt....  Start, All Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt
    Run the following command in the command prompt just like it's typed: sc config intelppm start= disabled
    Step 2:
    If the issue persists, please try to log on or boot the system in recovery console (refer to the web document)
    2. Using recovery console:
    If you booted into the recovery console, from a command prompt, type: disable intelppm
    Step 3: Please check in registry.
    3. Using windows registry:
    1. Run regedit
    2. Click on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    3. From the File menu, select "Load hive"
    4. Navigate to %systemdriver%\Windows\System32\Config on the dead system and select the file name System
    5. Name it something you can remember, such as "horked"
    6. Navigate to horked\ControlSet001\Services\IntelPPM
    7. Double click the Start value and set it to 4
    8. If you did what I did and completely messed things up by running a disk check previously, navigate to ControlSet001\Control\SessionManager. Open the BootExecute value and clear out the autochk entries.
    9. Repeat steps 6-8 for the other control sets.
    10. Reboot

    For future reference: Service pack 3 Installation steps:
    Before installing the service pack 3 update, please follow the steps listed above and save yourself much time and effort.
    To uninstall service pack 3, I suggest that you uninstall it from add/remove programs.
    Step 1:
    Uninstall service pack 3 from add/remove programs:
    1. Click Start.
    2. Select Run.
    3. Type appwiz.cpl in the run field.
    4. Click OK.
    5. Click change or remove programs.
    6. Select the program -service pack 3 that you want to uninstall or remove.
    7. Click Remove button.
    8. It will pop up the message stating that "Are you sure you want to remove the programs".
    9. Click Yes. It will help you to remove or uninstall the installed programs from add and remove programs.
    Step 2: If the issue persists, I suggest you to perform system restore and then try to install the service pack 3 after performing the steps mentioned above in regards to removing the intelppm.sys Driver.

    I hope this helps someone who is having this problem. It sure took me a minute to get it all figured out. :0)

    Still useful as of 12/30/11. Have ten Lenovo 5042 computers with downgrade licenses to run XP and have a ghosted image from another Lenovo 5042 having and Intel cpu. My target computers all have AMD cpus in them and the image would continuously reboot on
    the AMD computers.
    Used method 1 and it cleared the problem instantly, many thanks for the post and the time and effort it took to dig up the answer..

  • Volume Keys not responding after installing service pack 1.

    Okay, I've scoured the internet, and I can't find anyone else with a similar problem or a way to fix it, hopefully ya'll will have an answer:
    I recently just updated my Vista Ultimate Operating System (using Bootcamp) to service pack 1. Prior to installing service pack 1, when I pressed F3-F5 on the keyboard, they would respond in the same manner that they would on OS X where F3 would mute, F4 would make the sound lower, and F5 would increase the sound.
    However, after Service Pack 1, the buttons do nothing more than mute and turn on the sound. I reinstalled the Boot Camp drivers, ran all the software updates (found no updates on both apple and windows), and tried to repair Vista from the original install disk. Nothing helped.
    However, here's the thing: When I press the buttons the same little overlay comes up displaying the sound volume, but there's a big 'denied' circle on the bottom of it. To describe it slightly better, there's a circle with the line through it(looks like a no smoking sign), placed over the squares representing the volume on the overlay to show volume control.
    I'm lost as to what to do since all the other keys work, including the brightness control, and they worked before I installed Service Pack 1. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?

    i just uninstalled SP1 and it went back to normal,
    go to Control Panel and on the left side theres something called "view installed updates" go there and just uninstall SP1 and your fine. but if you need sp1, i don't know how to help you there.

  • ITunes won't open after installing update.

    After installing the latest itunes update, itunes won't open at all. I click on it and it just won't open. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still doesn't work.

    hello Nevada!
    After installing the latest itunes update, itunes
    won't open at all. I click on it and it just won't
    open.
    are you getting an error message? if so, what does it
    say?
    or are you getting no error messages whatsoever? if
    so, could you let us know the results of the
    following observations?
    reboot your PC. open Task Manager to the Processes
    Tab. now try to launch itunes again.
    does an itunes.exe process appear in Task Manager? if
    so, does it persist in there, or does it disappear
    after a few seconds?
    love, b
    b noir - i have been following your advice and i want to thank you for taking your time to try and solve these problems for ipod users.
    i have been following this message board each day for the past week - ever since my iTunes stopped working. i have not yet seen anyone who is receiving the same error message as myself.
    like most others, i downloaded the recent update for iTunes - since then, iTunes will not open. i have tried most of the other proposed solutions to no avail, such as downloading a stand-alone version of quicktime, making sure my msconfig start-up has the correct check marks, etc.
    the iTunes set-up completes with no problem - i have tried installing by saving the file to my hard drive and then running and also by running the program straight from the download window. same results.
    once i go to open iTunes, i receive the following error message: "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. if you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost. Please tell Microsoft about this problem." Then I click "Send Error Report" just hoping I will receive a required update to make this work.
    i was wondering if you could attempt to help me resolve this issue? i have my music saved to my external hard drive, so i am in no danger of losing my music. however, i need to open iTunes to update my iPod.
    thanks in advance for your help.

  • Reader won't open after install - Macbook Air, Chrome

    Hello, After downloading the reader (seemingly successfully), it won't open. Downloaded via Chrome OSX on a brand new Macbook air. Adobe's help section advised redownloading the program again. When I did so, I received this message after going through all steps (including deleting the original download from the computer). Have tried a few times now, with same result:
    When I click on the installer on my desktop, it repeats the exact process described above. Any ideas?

    Hi laurenr67230747,
    You indicated that Reader won't open, so it sounds like you did get it installed (as indicated by the message in the installer as well). What happens when you try to launch Reader? Do you receive an error, or does nothing happen when you try to open it?
    Have you tried removing Reader before running the installer again?
    Best,
    Sara
