Problems with Word (office x) since 10.4.7

I cannot use Word since installing 10.4.7. Starts up, then when I chose a blank doc or a template, it closes down. I can open other previously created docs but cannot use it to create new ones. reinstalled the service pak from earlier but still no luck. I do notice that when it starts up, it does NOT provide a splash screen but goes immediately to the doc choices, i.e., blank, templates, etc.
any thoughts?

the bad fonts(10 of them) all had the extension ".dfont", one ttf and one quickbooks. I ran it several times after removing these fonts and all came up ok.....i've also got mellel and mariner write but haven't used them. it was so easy to create the templates in Word I got spoiled. I just created one new template in mellel so I may not need to get back into word after all. I can save everyhting in mellel or mariner write to pdf so i think i might have seen my last ms experience. I might try to reinstall office and see what happens.....and just when I was trying to get paperless and was starting to scan all my paper into the computer so am moving everything over to pdf format.......

I am having problems interacting with Microsoft Office programs since the last update:cannot create a pdf through the 'print' menu in exel and both Word and Exel docs sent in Mac Mail end up being received as .dat files.

Both these situations have cropped up on my MacBook Pro since the last update.
Thanks for your help.

The 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.
I wish I had more

Problem with Microsoft office since new firefox installation

I have never had a problem with Microsoft Office --ever. I can have 4+ windows open at once. Since installation the latest version of Firefox many things have changed. The most troublesome is that I cannot open any office programs (word, excel, etc). They try to open and then give me an error message.

Victorymarketin, welcome to the forum.
Since they are both Microsoft programs, I suggest contacting MS Customer Service for help. They have always gotten me up and running in short order. This is always my solution when I have MS related problems. They if anyone can, will solve your problem.

Problem with Word 2013 through VPN

Hello,
From several weeks my company has a problem
with Word 2013 when laptop is connected to the network
via VPN.
Symptoms:
- Word 2013 is opening very slow (even
opening a blank card)
- there are no matter if I try to open blank page or network files
- All other Office 2013 components are working fine (Excel, Powerpoint etc).
- When I disconnect from a VPN, Word is opening properly.
It is not a problem with VPN because:
- Word is opening locally (not network files)
- before we had Word 2010 and it was working smoothly
Does anyone know a similar case
and could help solve this problem?
Regards,
Pawel

Hi,
"- before we had Word 2010 and it was working smoothly" -
Word 2013 might deal with documents in different ways.
Since Word will open properly when you disconnect from a VPN, you might want to start by analyzing the network traffic, VPN connections.
Please try to check the option "Copy remotely stored files onto your computer and update the remote file when saving" in
FILE>Options>Advanced>Save section, and then verify result.
The other thing to check is add-ins. I'd suggest you to start Word in safe mode and see if issue persists:
Press Win + R and type "winword /safe" in the blank box, then press Enter.
Thanks,

Problems with Microsoft Office 2008 and 2011

Hiya,
I am running Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro and I'm having ongoing problems with the Office system. I'm doing a PhD so I use footnotes all the time and in Word 2011, the autosave function makes the footnotes disappear from the bottom of the page, but I'm not comfortbale working wihtout autosave running. I deleted Office 2011 and put Office 2008 back on my machine. However, since I re-installed Office 2008, the whole OSX seems to have slowed down.
Could Office 2008 cause my whole system to get sluggish? Is there anything that I can do about it?
I am also wondering if there is there another solution to my original Office 2011 problem with footnotes that doesn;t involve disabling autosave? Has anyone else has similar problems with footnotes? I just wiped my whole system and re-installed all the programmes, so I am surprised to still be having these same problems with Office!
Thank you for any help and advice!

You should try asking your Office for Mac question in the Office for Mac forums where the Office for Mac gurus hang out.http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/mac?auth=1

Snow Leopard Problems with Microsoft Office 2004

I installed Snow Leopard about two months ago. Ever since I have nad problems opening Microsoft Worrd 2004. Every time I try to open Word it hangs up at "Optimizing font menu performance..." Before I installed Snow Leopard I had no problems with any Office 2004 applications. I also have a lot of problems with fonts when I open Safari.

This message occurs whenever your installed fonts change. I work for a publisher so was getting it all the time as I turned fonts on and off for different projects.
In Office 2004, do this:
1. Go to */Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Office/Support Files/*
2. Rename or move FontCacheTool. (Requires administrator access)
In Office 2011, do this:
1. Go to *~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2011/*
2. Delete *Office Font Cache*
3. From Terminal, type touch" then drag in the Office 2011 folder
4. Back in the Finder, do Get Info on the new, empty *Office Font Cache* file. Make it read only and lock it.
Notes:
1. WYSIWYG menus will now just show the font name in standard font.
2. You may be able to disable the 'optimising' message more easily by going to Word's preferences and turning off the 'WYSIWYG font and style menus' tick box in the General section. This takes affect in all Office applications but doesn't seem as reliable at preventing the caching problem.
4. Newly added fonts should still appear when you next start an Office application.
3. However you have Office set up, it can't see certain fonts. They are the ones logged to Console, e.g.:
12/04/2011 09:58:14 /System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ATS.framewo rk/Support/fontd[21782] ATS Font family could not be created for Abaton ITC Std - Legacy Applications may not see this font

There is a problem with the Office database - Office 2011

Good day!
I recently installed Office 2011 for Mac and i'm getting the following error message: There is a problem with the Office database. Excel comes up with the error message but i am able to get past the error and open the application, but it freezes when I try on Word. I have to force quit the application to close it completely.
I've searched online and tried all the suggestions - even those from the discussion board: Problem with Office Mac 2011 database. I've completely removed traces of the software : http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2398768 and reinstalled using the disc, as well as followed suggestions to rebuild the database. I also installed the latest Office update: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44026 from Excel (As it was the only one I know of that's functioning after the error message) but to no avail.
Here are the tech specs:
OS X
version 10.9.5
Office 2011 for Mac
Version 14.4.4 (140807)
Update: 14.4.4
Hope you guys can point me to the right direction. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Best ask question on one of the Microsoft boards.
Could try NeoOffice.

Problems with Microsoft Office

I really don't know where to post this as I can't find a Discussion forum for it, please re direct me if this is....
So I'm having a HUGE problem with Microsoft Office. I've had the Student addition, purchased it in a store, and have been using it since without any issues. Just yesterday, it told me I needed to download an update for it in the System Update. Well it downloaded without a problem, however during the installation it stalled and never completed. When I turned my computer back on, and did the System Update again, it said that my system was completely up to date. However, now the only too things in my Microsoft Office folder is PowerPoint and Excel. The other applications can not be located anywhere on my computer.
Now is there a way for me to fix this. I no longer have the CD with Microsoft Office on it because I'm constantly traveling. I'm extremely annoyed because I rely on Entourage for my emails, don't really like the Mail application. I just want to know what to do. Any suggestions?
Thank you.

When an installer 'stalls' during the installation, I'd guess you'd need to try reinstalling from the CD. I could be wrong though. Here is another forum that may help you if you don't get the answer here...

I have a problem with my Iphone 4s since I did my first update at your Itunes, the bluetooth and the WiFi it is not workinhg anymore.
It is sad that companies like apple are not able to support thier sofware and business.
I went to a apple store at South Park, Charlotte NC,
and found out the worst customer service (in my case)
They don't have answers and don't understand about "dont let any customer go away sad or mad"
I explain to them that I did everything they said to fix the problem, even to dounload the iOS 6.1.3
that was supposed to fix the problem.
they said fix the problem in other phones but not in mine.
So here I am with no wifi and bluetooth, with apple technicians and experts that don't know what to do with the problem that the sofware they developed cause in my iphone 4s.
and the solution is for me to pay $199.00 US dollars for a problem that I did not cause.
wich means to buy something else from apple to fix a problem that it is not my fault.
Great! what a convenient solution.
I would like to have an answer from you guys and see if someone there have a better answer for me that shows support, values and integrity as a grest company with solutions for your customers.
Dont think that I want a new phone, I want mine fixed if is possible.
Thank you very much and God Bless you!

Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

I have a problem with my application update since i updated to iOS6

i am having a problem with my application update since i updated my iphonw to iOS 6. small updates are taking very long time and even not getting finished after several hours.
my internet connection is very fine and having good speed. i think updating to iOS 6 was a mistake....

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

HT4623 I have a big problem with my IPhone 4 since I've updated to IOS 6.0.1.

I've got a problem with my IPhone 4 since I've updated to IOS 6.0.1. After the call I'd like to end the call but the picture on the screen becomes magnified
so that you cannot see anything and the screen is not reacting. I need to restart the phone. But 7 or 8 times daily to restart the phone is not really convenient.
Has got anybody the same problem? How can I go back to IOS 5 ? Before the update I was a happy user of IPhone.
Thanks for help.

Downgrading your ios is unsupported by apple. Go to settings, general, accesibility, zoom off..?

If you have a beta copy of iOS6
1. You are a developer and will know how to transition from beta
to release version and to use the Develpoer forum
2. You have a pirate copy of the beta and no-one on this Apple hosted Forum can help you
