MS Word 2010 will not display in Layout view

In a nutshell, Word appears to be not so much stuck in "Draft" view but will not show Print Layout view at all.  I am writing a manual which includes many embedded images, charts, and the like, so all of the editing has been done thus far in Layout
View.  At this point my project is effectively paralyzed; perhaps if I uninstall Word 2010 and return to a version that worked?

"GSHancock" wrote in message news:[email protected]...
Unfortunately the document is a section from an unpublished game manual, and falls under "sensitive" in its entirety. However, I will share this experiment with you; I deleted the entire manual's text and wrote a few lines, then saved the document. When
I loaded it again, it came up in Layout View... so the problem may lie somewhere in the formatting of one of the section breaks? Weirdest thing.
OK, I see why you can’t share the content. :-)
Your observation does suggest a formatting problem. Continuing on that idea, working with a copy on the original document of course, you could split the document in halves (via Save As); then see which half shows symptoms of the problem. Split the problem
document again, and again, until you have isolated the problem.
Alternatively, if you want a quicker fix, the following would be worth trying: Delete all section breaks and then copy the content, minus the final paragraph mark (¶), into a new document.
To show/hide nonprinting marks, including paragraph marks, click the ¶ button on the Home tab.

  • My Microsoft Word Starter 2010 will not open

    My Microsoft Word Starter 2010 will not open at all. Every single time I click on the icon in the start menu or on the desktop, this window opens and says "Click to Run Configuration Failure". What does that mean. Why won't it open? Please help
    me, before I start uninstalling things in my control panel. 

    Hi,
    When you see the error "Click to Run Configuration Failure", please try a repair of the install from Control Panel -> Programs and Features:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/update-repair-or-uninstall-office-click-to-run-products-HA010382089.aspx
    Or we should re-associate Office file, such as .docx file:
    1. Open Default Programs from Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs.
    2. Click Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
    3. Click .docx file type.
    4. Click Change program.
    5. Choose Microsoft Word as default program.
    6. Click OK.
    Moreover, if the steps above don't help, you can also refer to this link, whose solution has helped some users:

  • Flash appears to install on Win 7, IE 8but will not display

    32 bit Windows 7
    IE 8, 32 bit
    FP 10.2.152.32
    FP S/W installation windows indicate that FP installed (Download Manager also says so)
    FP & Download Manager are both shown in Programs.
    History: Few weeks ago system was severely corrupted even though had McAfee Viruscan and Webroot Spysweeper. It was indicated every time an attempt to look at a video was made wherepon the computer would shutdown a few seconds afterwards. Working w/ Dell Support they determined the system was too far corrupted to save (7000+ files corrupted!!). They suggested that it would be preferable to install W 7 to replace then current XP operating system. Had disk formatted and XP operating system re-installed but only sufficient to  allow operation of email. When Windows 7 arrived fully installed along w/ new Word/Excel 2010 S/W. Retrieved backuped files successfully. Everything is operating OK except for FP. Every attempt to load (after repeated uninstalls) shows it to be "successful" but still won't allow videos to play.
    Based on perusal of thread, opened register to check on "kill-bit", found no indication it was set.
    What should I do next?

    Hi, what a terrible experience to have to go thru! I hope you don't still have either one of those "Anti-Virus" programs on your system. If not, what Anti-Virus/Spyware program(s) do you have?
    Yes it was terrible, but Dell (Solution Station, paid support) made this sickening experience bearable. Right now I have McAfee Total Protection 2011 for what it's worth (ya gotta have something) and I use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (free version) twice a day to scan. The only thing it finds repeatedly is something in the registry defined as : HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\...
    So I can understand this, you now have Win7 on the computer? The backup files are from the XP that had the 7000 corrupted files?? When you reformatted XP, weren't those files lost? I guess what I need to know is how did those files get Installed onto the Win7 OS?
    Here's the sequence of events: I back up periodically with a WD My Book Essentials external drive, assuring that the system is as clean as I can get it and otherwise operating normally. I don't do it continuously for fear that I could be backing up corrupted files right up to the point the disk crashes The back up that was used was about six weeks old. The 7000+ corrupted files were cleaned before reformatting but would have been lost regardless when the disk was reformatted. After it was reformatted and before installation of W7, the  Dell reinstallation disk for XP was used. No backup files were loaded on this temporary XP system. When the W7 system was installed these backup files from the external drive were cleaned with Malwarebyes which found about 20 corrupted files. Since then only two have regularly appeared , they are in the registry defined as: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\def...
    Also why wasn't the malware cleaned before reformatting?
    As indicated above, it was cleaned but never used again since it was all lost with the reformatting. The reinstalled software came from a six week old backup which has worked well and shows none of the malware, except for the few Malwarebytes intially found.
    One other thing, I revisited the "kill-bit" procedure. While I didn't find what you indicated, I did find these two entries with HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ :
          Name                        Type                    Data
    "icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            (value not set)
    "icon w/ab in it"             REG SZ            application/x-shockwave-flash
    Also, I was looking at your procedure in post #26, in response to jfirko where a vs 9 of FP is installed/uninstalled followed by the current version of FP. For my situation is this a worthwile approach?
    By the way, thanks for your interest in solving these problems. So many programs now use the flash player but there are so few sources to turn to when problems occur.     

  • Cross References Will Not Display Page Number

    Got some documents created in InDesign CS3 (MAC). When bringing them into CS4 (Windows) and trying to create a paragraph cross-reference the page numbers will not display. All the other text in the cross reference ("paragraph", the word "page", etc.) displays correctly. Even the cross reference under the "hyperlinks" toolbar shows nothing (instead of the usual # indicating a page number).
    However If I copy some of the same pages into a new document and create a cross reference in it the page number displays correctly. But since it's over 300 pages I really would hate to have to do that!
    Any ideas?

    Is it maybe because CS3 does not include the cross references function (not a feature until CS4)?
    That's a real problem if we use an outside source to create a lot of our documents and they're working in a previous version.

  • Adobe Reader Will Not Display Large PDFs

    When using the Adobe Reader app on PlayBook it will not display some PDFs. It seems that it will not display PDFs that are too large.
    Some files that might be too large do not display while smaller files do display in the app. The too large range could be in the 12 MB region where the good range could be 6 MB or less.
    I tried to submit feedback to BlackBerry on this issue but it returned my email saying it could not process my request. I am hoping that they read it here.
    Here is a link to a page with both readable and unreadable files:
    http://www.bossus.com/backstage/product_manuals/?g​roup=2
    A readable PDF is the owner's manual for the RV-3. A unreadable PDF is the owner's manual for the RC-3.

    That looks like a perfectly good PDF, but since it's trying to open in Microsoft Word, that means your file association for .pdf files is incorrect.  You should change it to point to Adobe Reader instead of Word.
    If you are on Windows, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-file-open-program#1TC=windows-7

  • IChat will not display status messages.

    I'm having a problem - iChat will not display any "available" status messages. All away messages display properly, but any unique status messages will not display, nor does the word "available". I have restarted both iChat and my MacBook several times, deleted the com.ichat.AIM preferences file, but it seems nothing I do will make my buddy's unique status messages display.
    I did not previously use Chax but downloaded it to see if it would help; it didn't. I'm willing to delete it if it will solve my problem.
    Any help?
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: Paperclippe

    Ok,
    As you either suspected or found out the Saved Status Messages are in com.apple.ihat.plist
    The fact they didn't display would suggest that they may have become corrupted and the deletion of the .plist would have helped.
    BUT you went on to mention that the Available Choice also does not display.
    This would suggest one of two things.
    1) Either you are not fully Logged in to the AIM servers properly
    Do your Buddies see you are On-line and Available ?
    Do they perceive your Status change ?
    Can you Text chat to people ?
    Can you send files or Pic in Text chats ?
    Try Deleting com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist and restarting iChat to see if that helps
    2) Something about iChat or it's support folders (the bits that make the Available show up), that are at fault.
    In this case try deleting com.apple.ichatAgent.plist
    This controls which accounts login and help the app to run some of the features such as the Video/Audio part and Text Messaging.
    I would do these one at a time just so you know which it was that fixed it.

  • Images will not display, please help

    Hi,
    I have built a couple of sites, one with tables one CSS where
    my banners will not display on my screen when I view the site
    online. The sites are:
    www.gnewt.co.uk &
    www.getouthavefun.co.uk
    The banners are visible on some other computers online, but
    not all and the images display fine when i preview the site not
    online but in Firefox or IE. I have tracked the problem down to
    this, online when I right click where the image should be
    displaying it says the filename etc and for dimensions says:
    Image Dimensions: 1px × 1px (scaled to 950px ×
    120px)
    Size of File: 0.04 kB (43 bytes)
    I can right click and download the image to my desktop from
    the ftp and it will display fine, so it must be an html problem. I
    have been using templates and have uploaded a version not attached
    to a template and that makes no difference, I have also tried
    differing filetypes such as gif and png, again no change.
    Furthermore if you put in the incorrect URL for the image, at least
    then it displays the Alt Text.
    The html code is very basic:
    <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="Banner" --><img
    src="banners/2.jpg" alt="banner" name="Banner" width="950"
    height="120" border="0" /><!-- InstanceEndEditable
    --></td>
    SO the image is there somehow but the browser thinks its only
    1px across, if you put in plain text it displays fine? Can anyone
    help me with why this happens as I have tried everything I can
    think of - i'm not particularly good with html so it could be
    something elementary
    Thanks in advance

    >name="Banner" --><img src="banners/2.jpg"
    alt="banner"
    Sounds like the work of Norton. Don't ever use the word
    'banner' in any part of your images. Rename the image and alt text
    and see if that works.

  • Satellite A300 PSAG0A - Games Will Not Display in Full Screen Size

    I have a large number of games installed on my computer. At least 90% of them will not display in full screen size but display in a small window with a large amount of black screen surrounding the window. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. However, I do not think it has anything to do with Windows as my husband runs the same games on his Toshiba Satellite L300, running exactly the same version of windows, and they all display in full screen size.
    Altering the screen resolution makes no difference. And, of course, I do select the full screen option in the games.
    Also, sometimes when I have been playing a game and then closed it I find that my desktop picture has shrunk to the smaller size - the same size as the window in which the game was displayed when I was playing it.
    The games work fine in every other way, it is only this small screen size which is driving me nuts.
    I hope that someone can help me with this!!

    Yes, as far as I can tell I have the latest driver. But, even this is confusing to me because....
    My graphics media accelerator is Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family. The installed driver version is 7.14.10.1329. The release date for this is 2007-09-13, as far as I can tell from web searches.
    However, on the Toshiba website for driver downloads, the available driver version is 8.2.0.1012 PV. The date is 2006-12-28. I have downloaded this driver and attempted to install it. I get the message that it has been installed but, after rebooting and checking the installed driver version is still 7.14.10.1329.
    Perhaps, the 8.2.0.1012 PV version does not actually install because it is older than the currently installed version. I would have thought that the driver version with the higher number would be the newer one, but perhaps this is not the case as the dates do not seem to support this theory.
    So now I ask myself, firstly, if the driver available for download on the Toshiba website is not the newest one, then why is it there?
    Secondly, if it is the newest one then why will it not install on my computer?

  • The menubar will not display in full screen

    Hi.
    I have a strange problem in fullscreen mode, on my Macbook pro 15"
    I LOVE fullscreen, and infact the next macbook I will get is the 11" air because of its size and because full screen is so nice to work with.
    But I have a strange problem which I can't find a solution for.
    Suddenly the menubar will not display it self when I move the mouse to the top of the screen. The only way I can access the menu bar is by exiting full screen (ctrl + Cmd + F) and the toggel it back on after I have used the menubar
    This actually makes fullscreen mode useless and its driving me nuts, because this should not happen on Apple software. I would expect these sorts of behaviour on windows but not in osx.
    Anybody have a hint about what to do?

    Try this:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

    was recently sent a very large emoji message amd now when i try to acces messages it will not display mesagges and then will bring me back to the home page

    Quit the messages app and reset your phone.
    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it jiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    After the phone restarts go into Messages and delete the thread containing the problem message.

  • Newly created images will not display in Firefox 8 for Mac. Same images appear in other browsers. Why?

    1. Specific new images are uploaded but will not display in Firefox 8 on my Mac with OS 10.6.8. (Does appear in other browsers, e.g., Chrome and Opera, and appears on Firefox 8 for PC.) Also, other images on the page display.
    2. I have cleared cache, cookies, etc., in Recent History, and restarted both application and computer.
    3. I've tried creating GIF, JPG and PNG, but none show on the page in Firefox on my Mac. I can see the offending image in other browsers such as Chrome on the same computer, and on Firefox on PC. Offending pages are in both PHP and HTML: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertisers.php and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/advertising_freedom_montessori.html
    Image links: http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/freedom.png and http://www.brookfieldcivic.org/images/advertisers/Freedom_Montessori_bizcard.jpg

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
