Pdf files open in microsoft office pictures and will not open

when trying to open a pdf file of pictures or an emailed document it goesinto microsoft office pictures...a blank screen appears with a small square in the center with the office picture logo and nothing opens

If you are on Windows, the easiest would be to run a repair install on Adobe Reader:
*Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs
*select Adobe Reader, then click on 'Change'
*click '>Next', select 'Repair', click '>Next'
This should repair your PDF file association.

Microsoft office crashed and will not reopen

While in use, my microsoft office window closed suddenly and all attempts to relauch Outlook have failed. ANy suggestions?

First off - try going here:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac/forum/macoffice2011
Outlook uses Identities which are fragile in my experience. If you hold down the Option key while clicking/opening the Outlook app the Microsoft Data Management Utility may open. If so you can try rebuilding (lower right) and see if it recreates the identity for you. On the Mac Forum for Office (which is a Microsoft product) is where you will get help. Outlook for Mac uses a Microsoft written 'sync' with iCal and it fails often imx.
On another note - what I did was get IMAP mail (gmail), switch over to the Apple Mail program and iCal and the Cloud. Yet I have a Windows 7 computer and use Outlook on the IMAP account and downloaded iCloud for Windows. In short - I use Mail/Calendar for Mac on the Mac and Outlook on my Windows computer and use the Cloud sync to keep the same information on both computers as well as my iPhone.
It works extremely well once the learning curve is mastered. I do use Word and Excel on the Mac but find Outlook better for Windows and stayed with the Mac Mail program on the Mac. They key is *IMAP* mail and the correct settings so that you can acess the same mail from any program on any platform. The other key is to use iCloud to sync iCloud calendars staying away from google etc. Btw gmail is a great IMAP provider.

HT4059 I have PDF files in iBooks on my iPad and am not able to sync them to my Mac computer. Please help!

I have PDF files in iBooks on my iPad and am not able to sync them to my Mac computer. Please help!

You should be able to copy them over to your Mac's iTunes by connecting the iPad to it and doing File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (that should copy PDFs and epubs that are in iBooks, not just actual ibooks) - does that not work ?

I received a pdf file in mail. But my imac will not save info that has been pre-entered. I tried "save as" but when I open the saved version I get a blank pdf form.

I received a pdf form in email with pre-entered data. But when I save it in documents, all I get is a blank form. How can I save the form and data?

Fill in the form, then select File > Print fron the menu bar, and in the print dialog, select PDF > Save as PDF.

IBooks - PDF Files that a reader can highlight and write notes in?

Hi,
I would like to create a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat in Windows that a reader can highlight the text in and write notes. Is this possible? I can get it to show bookmarks and such, but the other two things would be great to be able to do.
THANKS!

The point is to be able to use the iBooks functionality.
iBooks doesn't have the functionality you want. Here is a chart that may be useful.

I have a Officejet 8500 A910n. When printing a pdf the print job just stops and will not print.

Only certain files the print job just stops and will not print in Adobe Acrobat X. All other applications work fine.

Have you tried downloading and installing Adobe Acrobat XI? http://www.adobe.com/products/reader.html
Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

Lion - 2004 MS Office for Mac will not work

My 2004 version of Microsoft Office for Mac will not work in Lion. I suspect because this is a PowerPC application. My question is this:
Is there any program out there which will map the PowerPC to an Intel format? Other than trying to seel more products, I am surprised that Apple does not supply a mapping program for products made by Microsoft for the Apple devices.

Eric, can you tell me where please? It's not mentioned on the Lion compatibility pages at all. (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/what-is/compatibility.html) nor on the 'how to upgrade' page (http://www.apple.com/uk/macosx/how-to-buy/)

Thanks for your help. I am on an Intel iMac.

Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 and 10.6:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US
Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard changed the location of a number of system components.

I have a MacBook Pro (purchased in 2011) with OS X Lion 10.7.4. I'm using Microsoft Office 2011 and cannot open older PowerPoint Files (non .pptx). It will always open the same .pptx file and then the machine hangs up and just keeps spinning.

Thank you - that all makes sense. It is, indeed, exactly what I did when I upgraded.
I'm also writing this on the machine that crashed a few minutes ago (I posted the crash in another thread). I got back with a 'safe boot' - as I have done a few times before.
I've also de-installed little snitch (and then done a safe-boot & then re-boot ) since that seemed involved. I de-installed Adobe flash, since that seemed to be a problem - I then re-installed the later, apparently fixed, flash. The most recent crashes don't seeme to have a problem with flash any more.
I've posted the various ( generally different ) crashes. I also posted a summary of the similar lines that turn up in most of the crashes.
Unfortuantely, I'm actually trying to use the machine to meet some urgent deadlines and all this is not making it at all easy.
I had had great hopes for 10.7.2 - I thought that the crashes must be pretty common, so would have a common aetiology. There do seem to have been some fundamental changes to the file sytem and to the video interface (that seems to cause problems to brand new iMacs as well as to my 2009 iMac).

How do I open a TIF image email attachment using windows photo gallery as the default instead of microsoft office picture manager?

I have an internet fax program that sends faxes directly to my email as a TIF image attachment. When I download the attachment it lists Microsoft office picture manager as the default program to view the image. I would like to change the default program to view the image to Microsoft photo gallery. How do I change the default program to open an image attachment in firefox? Thank you

OK I have it figured out! I was using google mail. For what ever reason the imac/pc safari using google would not display the PDF in the email even though the ipad/iphone did. I tried a different mail system through work (not google mail) and it EVERYTHING works GREAT!!!!! Wow, a lot of wasted time over something that was actually working.

Upgraded to Lion. Microsoft office home and student 2007 not compatible. what do i need to do to be able to access files?

Upgraded to Lion. Microsoft office home and student 2007 not compatible. what do i need to do to be able to access office files?

RRFS is correct, however you are incorrect. There is no such thing as MS Office for Mac 2007, your software is probably MS Office for Mac 2004! You can upgrade to MS Office for Mac 2011 for as little as $97 at www.macsales.com or Amazon has it for $90.00.
Once you have upgraded all of your Office data files can then be opened.

If I convert a PDF file to a Microsoft Word file can I delete pictures from the converted file

If I convert PDF file to a Microsoft Word file can I delete pictures from the converted file?

Hi sutterrot,
After a successful conversion from PDF to Word, you need to download the converted file locally on your computer.
You can then choose 'Enable Editing' button and then delete images/text or make other changes.

I've downloaded Microsoft Office 2011 and installed it, but i can't find it on my applications or open it up in my downloads. I can I get my microsoft up and running? - New to Mac

Did you actually run the installer? If so, there should be a Microsoft Office 2011 folder in your Applications folder. Have you checked there and confirmed that the folder does not exist? If it does not, try running the Office installer again. Note that if all you did is open the disk image file, you have to now go to the image (which looks like a drive in Finder) and then run the installer.
Regards.
