Office 2004 will not uninstall

Hi,
I'd like to install office 2008, so I'm firstly using the office 2004 uninstaller program to remove office 2004 - however it tells me it can't remove the installation of Office '04 as i'm not logged into the account that installed it - I've only ever had one account on my mac, and have never changed it, so now I'm stuck.
Does anyone know the list of files and folders that I can delete manually myself?
Thanks,
Seb

Oh sorry - even though it said it could not uninstall, all of the office files appear to be in the recycle bin

    hi tuggerose
    i think it is bad new for you. if it's any consilation i went through the same thing when i loaded mountain lion when it first came out. i think the problem is that mountain lion is a pure 64bit operating system and the software you have is 32bit. earlier os's were able to emulate 32bit but the new system does not. the answer is new software. i did it and it cost me a load of money and much angst so your not alone.

  • My office professional will not run with windows 8.1

    my office professional will not run with windows 8.1 It ran fine on 7 and 8 but not 8.1

      Microsoft Windows 8.1 officially supports all currently supported Microsoft Office versions including Office 2013 / 2010 / 2007 / 2003 , and may be even earlier versions unofficially. I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus on my Windows 8.1 and it runs fine with no issues.   Could you try what has already been suggested by others including Big_Dave and reinstall Microsoft Office with complete reboot/restart  between uninstall/new installation <restart, not shut down and start over>. If this doesn't work, please post again if installation went fine, what exactly is the error code (if any), what is the problem exactly, any screenshots ?

  • Is it true that MS Office Suite will not run on Lion?

    is it true that MS Office Suite will not run on Lion?

    Office 2004 was written for PowerPC.  To run Office 2004 on an Intel based Mac, you need Rosetta to translate PowerPC instructions to Intel instructions.  OS X Lion no longer includes or supports Rosetta.  As such, any application written for PowerPC no longer work on Lion, including Office 2004.
    Office 2008 and Office 2011 were written for Intel.  They'll work just fine on OS X Lion.
    To address your problem, you can do one of the following:
    1) Reinstall OS X Snow Leopard from a backup, if you made one.
    2) Upgrade to Office 2011.
    3) You could use a suite of productivity apps that can import Office documents, such as OpenOffice, or Apple's iWorks. There will be some incompatibilities between these applications and Office though.

  • I upgraded from 3.6.13 to Beta 4.0 and now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing.

    I uninstalled Beta 4 and re-installed 3.6.13 now Firefox will not open at all I tried to uninstall to start again but it will not uninstall either it does nothing, I have been using Firefox for a long time but cannot resolve this problem can anyone help and give me a solution please. As I use Firefox as my web browser it is very frustrating.
    The fact it will not uninstall appears to be something completely new as nobody I know who uses Firefox has ever encountered this in the past.

    Did you check your security software (firewall)?
    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox without informing you about that, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

  • I have installed a free download from an older version adobe reader and it will not uninstall?

    Most programs unistall easily from the control panels add/remove programs icon application.
    This older version i installed on my computer will not uninstall.
    Any sggestions.
    It tends to stall out or not uninstall at all.
    There is not even an unistall choice available any more on the add/remove programs.

    You can try using this tool to remove all traces of previous version(s) of Reader:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.

  • "Apple Mobile Device Support" will NOT uninstall from my computer, so I am still unable to upload iTunes

    "Apple Mobile Device Support" will NOT uninstall from my computer so I am still unable to upload iTunes.  I have tried it multiple times in multiple ways and after the uninstall always fails.  Solutions to this specific problem?

    I don't know... A link to the official repair advice is given at the top of my user tip. There was a new build of the iTunes 11.1.4.62 setup file released yesterday which is supposed to install cleanly on any system still back on iTunes 11.1.3.8, however they are still giving the same advice for problem systems that have already been upgraded. I.e. the new installer won't repair a currently borked install.
    You can download 7-Zip (free), or a free trial of WinRAR, and unpack the iTunesSetup.exe or iTunesSetup64.exe file into its components, then try installing them individually in alphabetical order (don't try to install SetupAdmin.exe or iCloud.msi). AMDS might not install right now, but you may get a more useful error message as to why not, and you might be able to run iTunes even if you can't update your devices at this stage.

  • Office 2004 could not be opend because you do not have sufficient access...

    I just created a second user acount on my imac. I went to go and open microsoft word.
    On the folder there was a little red circle with a line it it. I clicked on the folder and got this message.
    The folder "Microsoft Office 2004" could not be opened because you do not have sufficient access privileges.
    What does this mean and how do I fix it?

    Select the folder in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu, and change the permissions in the Ownership & Permissions section so that all accounts have read and write access to that folder. You may need to change the folder's owner to your account first; if so, change it back when you've changed the permissions. Changing the permissions on other items in this folder may be needed.

    With that complex of symptoms, let's try the following procedure.
    Download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility:
    Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
    Now launch Windows Installer CleanUp ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"), find any QuickTime entries in the list of programs in CleanUp, select those QuickTime entries, and click “remove”.
    Next, we’ll manually remove leftover program files and folders.
    1. On the Start menu, click My Computer (or double-click My Computer on the Desktop).
    2. In My Computer, open Local Disk.
    3. Open Program Files.
    4. Right-click on the QuickTime folder and click Delete from the shortcut menu.
    5. Navigate to C:\Windows\system32\.
    6. Remove the files QuickTime.qts and QuicktimeVR.qtx. (If “Hide filename extensions for known file types” is enabled on the PC, then those two files will appear as “QuickTime” and QuickTimeVR”.)
    7. Restart your computer.
    Now try another QuickTime install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • Java Runtime will not uninstall!

    I just tried to install sun's java vm (v.1.4.1_02), but nearing the end of the installation, the install would not go any further so I had to cancel. Now my system says that the runtime environment is installed, but if I try to uninstall it in the control panel (I'm running xp), the uninstall fails. Everything seems to go ok, but when finished, the java entry is still there in my control panel. Please help. Thank you.

    I have the same problem. I had two versions and the latest uninstalled but the 1.4.0_01 will not uninstall or at least it still exists in my control panel. I want to completely start over with java but I don't want mulitple versions at the same time. Please help or direct me to the answers to completely remove java.
    thanks

  • Office 2011 will not open in OS 10.9 with main user -- works with new user. Suggestions??

    Office 2011 will not open in Mavericks with main user -- works with new user. Suggestions??
    I've tried removing Office 2011 completely and re-installing to no avail.

    Unfortunately, my experience with Office is that somethoping will get corrupted in your account that prevents it from running. I have never figured out  what exactly needs to be removed to make it work again.
