Snow Leopard issues with Word for Mac 2004?

Are there any compatibility issues? Since I installed the Leopard, I've had to uninstall and reinstall Word Office for Mac twice.

Did you resolve the duplicate fonts using Font Book? See +Troubleshooting Office for Mac with Snow Leopard+

Snow leopard issues with windows for Mac

I installed snow leopard on my Mac Bk and I-Mac, Mac Bk no issues. On my I-mac the excel and Power point icons on the dock base show question marks and those to programs a gone. Word still appears and works, any help

Icons in the Dock represent applications stored on your machine. They can be in various locations (User folders or external hard drives).
When they show as a question mark it means the Dock can no longer find the source application. To restore functionality you need to remove the question mark icon (click, hold and drag up) and drag the source app back into the Dock. An "alias" is created that "links" to the source app.

Browser usually crashes whenever I want to upload a Word or PDF file? is that an OS issue or compatible issue with Word for Mac

A lot of times I would have to reset Safari while I do this and then it might work afterwards, I just find it annoying and time consuming, sometimes I might have to reboot my machine as well. Not sure whether it's an OS issue or an issue with Word that the system doesn't like word too much. I get the spinning ball and I have to do a hard force quit using my keyboard in order to stop the browser when it stops responding, then go ahead and reset safari like I stated previously.

I have tried Opera, which is somewhat better but it crashes if I have to look for the file within the system like with Safari, it will by default look on the desktop, if I try to change it to documents for example that's when it can go crazy, with Opera it will by default open in documents but say if I wanted to change it to desktop to look for the file, it can go loopy. Looks like it either the browser or OS doesn't like changing different folders to upload files.
How's Firefox on a Mac? is it better than on Windows?

Can't print using Word for Mac 2004 to any printer

I bought a MacMini in January and a MacBook in June, Still using Word for Mac I bought years ago. When I try to print documents, only a line or two prints, sometimes not even that. I've tried printing from the Mini to an Epson Workforce 500 and from the MacBook to a Ricoh 6400. Very frustrating, and I have to get syllabi printed for classes.

I just googled word for mac 2004 and found the requirements "10.2.8 or higher". There were quite a few changes in Snow Leopard, so a lot of applications which still would work with Leopard no longer work with SL. I also checked this site for SL compatibility and it is not even listed:

Lost use of word for mac 2004 when upgraded to mountain lion OSX

IVe just upgraded to Mountain Lion OSX and lost use of word for Mac 2004. how can i get in to work again

Office 2004 and Other Applications Don't Work in Lion/Mountain Lion
If you have Office 2004 which is a PPC-only suite, it will not work in Lion/Mountain Lion. You need to upgrade to Office 2011 - Mactopia - or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, that is functionally similar to Office 2007 for Windows except it works on Lion/Mountain Lion.
You may want to consider as well:
These two suites are similar to Libre Office but not as current or as well-supported:
NeoOffice
Open Office
And, then there is Apple's iWork suite:
Pages - word processing and layout
Keynote - presentation
Numbers - spreadsheet
Each can open and save Office compatible files. They may be purchased separately via the Mac App Store for $19.99 each.
As for other software, any PPC-based software will not run in Lion or Mountain Lion because Rosetta is no longer part of OS X. You will need to upgrade to Intel versions of the software.
(Access to the Mac App Store requires Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or higher and an Apple ID.)

Virus with word for mac

i seem to have a virus with word for mac. does anyone have a recommendation as to an anti-virus program

ClamXAV will locate the infected Word files, but it won't clean them.
Note that with Word viruses, you may have to delete your current normal.dot template (in Documents/Microsoft User Data), relaunch Word to recreate a new one; then lock it (highlight, click cmd+i, and click Locked) to prevent further infection.

Can I use Word for Mac 2004 to write basic solver/Macros programs?

I just bought the new macbook aluminum unibody. I am in college and am taking computer programming in fall, I need to be able to write basic programs that utilize macros and solver. I spoke with one mac person who told me I would need to buy parallels, the microsoft OS and then microsoft word for Microsoft OS.
However, that costs upwards of 200$ for a class I am only going to be taking for 2 months. Someone else has told me that the 2004 version of Word for Mac has macros abilities on it (those that are not on the current version, but that the 2011 version will have). Can I just use the 2004 version? Or does anyone have other suggestions?

Default font issue in Word for Mac 2011 on Mavericks.

I'm using Word for Mac 2011 on Mavericks. When I copy Chinese text into a Word document, Word for some reason assigns it a Japanese font (MS 明朝). When I try to switch between English and Chinese input methods (command + space), the system constantly defaults to Japanese input. This can even happen if I save the entire document (command + A) in Chinese font (宋体). Where can I change this behaviour? I've looked in Word Preferences and System Preferences but can find nothing.
Notes:
a. This behaviour is not just a Word problem. It never happened in OS 10.6.
b. Please don't tell me to just close the Japanese IME because I also use Japanese.

Apple preferences are kind of irrelevant for Word. The place to look for Tools > Language is in the Word menu itself. And the keyboard/font matching box is in Word preferences/Edit/Editing Options.

Spelling/grammar error notification in Word for Mac 2004

Is there a way to set up Word so that a sound will indicate an error as you are typing?
Thanks!

Hi Leslie .....
As you know you can setup MS Word for mac to underline "in RED" during typing the misspelled word.
Right click on it and "chance it" if not in the suggested word list you can added the word to your wordbook.
But, I think that you did know this already ...
*Also the question you put is here can be very annoying during typing ... to hear every time a "SOUND" would get you out of your concentration, by this way you could make more mistakes as usually*
It's up to you IF you still looking for a script or anything else to check misspelled words.

Bold Sync and Update Issues With DTM For Mac

First problem: I cannot update software on my Bold. Once I click on "Start Update", the process starts, but stops at "Downloading 5... Files". It then stops, and a dialog box with the following message pops up
<Blackberry Desktop Manager could not download the required files. There may be a problem with your network connection or the server is not responding. Please try again later> This is followed by:
< Blackberry Desktop Manager failed to update your Blackberry device>
Second problem: Syncing will not work as well. Upon syncing Calendar (iCal), I get the error message <A sync error has occured. Please retry the sync.>
Phone Data
Make: Bold 9000
Software: 4.6.0
Mac
Make: White Macbook 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 2GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
OS: 10.6.1 (Snow Leopard)
DTM was latest version (1.0) of DTM for Mac
I had PocketMac, Missing sync and the Beta of DTM for Mac installed. I have tried removing ALL components of these 3 apps, from all libraries and restarted my Mac ~6-7 times, but to no avail. It's getting very frustrating. Can anyone help?
PS I wish RIM would dedicate more resources to making it work between our Macs and our Berries. It's like having a pet that can't get along with your wife, one's gotta go!

Update: I've managed to get around the sync problems, have synced add book and iCal. Haven't tried notes and tasks, am hopeful it will work. However, updates still don't work! It goes to download 600+ files, and then the same error message still appears. Can anyone help? Hopefully someone from RIM!
As well, when un-installing BDTM-Mac, does anyone else get the same problem of getting a dialog box that says that uninstall was unsuccessful and that certain components could not be deleted?
As a sidenote, just to give your (emilianne) idea a shot, I re-installed missing sync and pocket mac, then used app zapper. Seems like I'm more thorough than the app. =\ Now I still get that dialog box from BDTM-Mac installer that says prior versions of syncing software were found. Geez. Previously when I did a manual wipe, didn't have that problem. Oh well... not a BB issue so not important.

Leopard issues with G5 Power Mac

Here is a list of Leopard issues I have encountered with my G5 Power Mac. my machine is a dual 2.0 with 6 GB RAM. I have 2 hard drives, 1 500 and 1 750. I amusing the ATI x1900 G5 mac Edition card powering 2 Apple Cinema Displays.
1) the x1900 G5 Power mac Edition card has some serious issues with Leopard. Terrible redraws, artifacting and kernel panics seem to be caused by the use of this card under Leopard. The latest drivers on the ATI site are for Tiger.
2) Adobe CS3 installs, but the install crashes repeatedly and you have to keep retrying. This does not happen on Tiger.
3) Many other apps are quirky under Leopard, as are some peripherals. For example, my Microtek ScanMaker 9800 XL large format scanner works fine, but if you are saving a scanned image you are limited to one letter for the name of the image in the "Save As" dialogue.
These are some of the issues that have caused me to go back to Tiger, where everything just works.

I've got a G5 Quad with the ATI x1900 powering 2 monitors (including a 30" cinema), and leopard indeed ***** with this setup. I've troubleshot for more time than it's worth, but the setup has become ALMOST workable with a few changes. by turning off spaces, cleaning out the card's cooling system itself (dust), and NEVER EVER putting the machine to sleep, it rarely kernel panics.
This is the second X1900 (first 1 was replaced by ATI for overheating/locking up problems about a year ago with 10.4). - It seems once the card overheats to a certain degree, it fails constantly no matter what you do.
When 10.5 was first installed, it locked up and the fans kicked into overdrive about 7 or 8 times a day for no apparent reason. The machine would go to sleep fine but after about 30 seconds or so, it would kick the fans up to full and no video would come on. The screensaver caused the same problem. If the video did come back, it seemed to lock up all USB traffic when it did so.
Now, after 2 weeks of fighting with it, it only freezes once a day or so. I know Apple released a firmware update for the MacPro version of this card, but the G5 version has a different firmware, and so far nothing's come from ATI.
The problem is gone in Tiger, so it's definitely a software/driver/firmware issue. Hopefully Apple and ATI fix this thing before I have to revert to using the lame NV6600 that came with the machine. 'Be nice if the people who spent the money on "top-of-the-line" got the same amount of time and tech development devoted to them as the masses. - It seems the MacPro users with the ATI X1900 card are in the same boat as us though. (Gee - some consolation.)

BB BOLD 9700 sync issues with Outlook for MAC

Hi Support,
I hope that you can help me? I have been having issues with my BB calendar not being able to sync with my Outlook for MAC calendar. I am using BB OS 6.0, Blackberry Desktop software 2.2.0 and Mac OS X version 10.7.2.
I have been able toget around the calendars not syncing but this morning I added iCal to iCloud, stupid move as it erased my entire calendar.
i was wondering if someone could help me restore my Outlook calendar and have my BB and calendar sync properly.
Please Help!!!

Hello and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
The BlackBerry Desktop Software needs a local calendar for sync. It does not support the iCloud.
You will need to create a new local calendar in your iCal to continue synchronizing with the Desktop Software.
As for restoring your Outlook calendar, you will need to talk to Apple for assistance.
