"There is a problem with the Office database" - Microsoft Office 2008 issue

It was all going so well.
I upgraded a MacBook to SL over the weekend. Everything was working well until yesterday (Wednesday) when, on opening Word I got the above message. The Database Utility reports 'an error occurred while trying to verify your database'
Other issues are that Entourage will not open, with a report that "The Entourage Temp folder could not be found".
I have reinstalled SL and Office and patched Office to 12.2.0. Interestingly the 12.2.1 installer cannot find a version of Office to update.
I've followed the various threads on font issues, but nothing seems to be working. As a temporary fix, I will be re-installing 10.5 but I'd like to know that Office 2008 is stable before going through the upgrade again.

I've had a chance to play around with a few things, mostly by following the advice at http://blog.entourage.mvps.org/2009/09/hottopics_using_office_for_mac_with_snowleopard.html
After creating a new user account I noticed that Office worked fine until the next time I logged out/in or rebooted. My MacBook is bound to a 10.5 server so I wondered if something was being reset by the server.
To try this out, I unbound the MacBook, set up a new account, and tested it by multiple restarts and log out/in. This configuration works fine so I guess it's something to do with being bound to an OD. Just one more thing to try if you're having problems

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.

There is a problem with the Outlook database. Your database could not be rebuilt. [-18000]

For home use, I recently changed from Windows PC to MacBook Air. I have an iPhone 4 which I synched without problem to the PC. Since I have used Outlook for years on Windows and trusted advisors assured me Microsoft Office on the Mac is the same as Microsoft Office on Windows, I decided to continue using Microsoft Office. Because I cannot get my Outlook calendar to sync reliably to iCal / iPhone and because I have found a small but meaningful number of features I use daily in Outlook Windows do not work on Outlook Mac, I have never been in so much pain!
The latest problem is Outlook does not complete startup. I get this error:
There is a problem with the Outlook database. To use the database, you must rebuild it using the Database Utility.
I run the utility but it never completes successfully.
Step 1 of 5: Scannning...
Step 2 of 5: Verifying...
Step 3 of 5: Copying records to new database...
Step 4 of 5: Recovering data...
Your database could not be rebuilt. [-18000]
I have found many articles about this problem but they all seem to assume that you can successfully start Outlook then you rebuild the database to fix data corruption in Outlook.
What if I Outlook never completes startup?

Here are the steps that solved the Outlook data corruption problem.

The question was: Your database could not be rebuilt
The key is to create a new Outlook Identity, remove the database file, then copy your data records into the new identity and use the Outlook database utility to rebuild the database.
It's a wonderful feeling to see Outlook start up successfully after a few days of downtime!

There is a problem with the security certificate of the proxy server. Error code 18 and 38.

Hi All,
After several hours and a short night of sleep I'm out of ideas and hopefully someone here can help me trying to solve this one. First of all the situation:
Exchange 2013 on a remote location with a CA-certificate.
Outlook 2010 and 2013 on different locations, locally installed and on RDS.
When I open Outlook on my laptop all is fine, no errors, good sync, no problem. But when I open Outlook on our Remote Desktop Servers with Outlook 2013 I'm getting errors like "There is a problem with the security certificate of the proxy server. The
name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site. Outlook is unable to connect to this server. (Error code 18)". Opening Outlook 2010 the message is the same, but the error code now is 38.
After this Outlook opens and is working, there's one more error though. After a while an security warning pops up with the message: "Information you exchange with this site cannot be viewed or changed by others. However, there is a problem with the
site's security certificate. * The security certificate was issued by a company you have not chosen to trust. View the certificate to determine whether you want to trust the certifying authority. * The security certificate is valid. * The name on the security
certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site."
Strangest thing is, it is the certificate of my RDS! It isn't my valid en officially bought certificate from my mailserver. What's going on? I'm out of options, what I've tried so far (in random order):
- restarting mailserver and AD;
- restarting switches;
- restarting routers;
- restarting RDS, AD and all other servers;
- bypassed proxyserver for RDS;
- created a new profile;
- checked recently installed updates;
- checked certificate on mailserver;
- checked RDS on a different location, working fine.
Nothing helped, what can I do next? Please advice.
Regards.

Found a thread that solves half my problem (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/70d18244-889a-4d95-ac3f-e234672a82b2/there-is-a-problem-with-the-proxy-servers-security-certificate-error-when-starting-outlook?forum=exchangesvrclients).
The first message can be suppressed by adding this to the Exchange config:
set-outlookprovider -Identity EXCH -CertprincipalName msstd:webmail.domain.tld
set-outlookprovider -Identity EXPR -CertprincipalName msstd:webmail.domain.tld
Giving the command get-outlookprovider, gives me empty information regarding the certprinipalname. Filled
this and after recreating the profile or deleting the ost-file I still have the second alert with the local certificate of my RDS.
Not completely where I want to be, any help regarding the second alert is greatly appreciated!

I just order 8 calendars from iPhoto and they came to me fine. Now I need to order two more but when I go thru the process I get a message saying:unable to assemble calendar. There is a probleme with the photo with the file name"(Null)" more........ .

Would someone be able to explain to me the following issue with Iphoto?
I ordered 8 same calendars for my soccer team and received them fine. Although a couple of pictures on it are a little off (out of focus). I need to order two more of the same calendars but when I go thru the process ireceive an error message saying:
"Unable to to assemble calendar" There is a problem with the photo with the file name "(Null)" The full resolution version of this photo either cannot be located or is corrupt. Please replace this photo or delete it from your calendar.
How can I fine this "corrupt" photo? How did it go thru with the first batch of calendars but won't go thru now?
Thank you for your help.

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start
with Option #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Downloaded Mt Lion. Now my facetime launches then quits with message that there is a problem with the C_L Kernel Plugin. Everything else works just fine. I can get on line etc.

I have have an early 2008 imac 8,1 It has been a good machine no problems. UNTIL we downloaded Mt Lion. We can no longer use facetime. We click on the icon it comes up, tries to connect then it disappears with the message that there was a problem with the C_L Kernel Plugin. We can go on line without difficulty, everything else seems to be working. Searching the internet shows that others have had the same problem with Mt Lion. But so far I haven't found a solution. We have wiped the drive reloaded snow leopard then downloaded Mt Lion again. We put in a NEW hard drive and reloaded snow leopard then Mt Lion. We have changed out ram using apple ram. But we still get the same result. Everything works except for Facetime. Is there some patch we have missed? Facetime DOES work on our ipads without a hitch so I doubt it's the internet connection. We've tried the imac both wirelessly as the ipads run and hardwired and get no where fast. So any help at all would be appreciated. We live in the boonies, the nearest mac repair is over 150 miles away so this is pretty nuch a do it myself affair. We know the machine is old by most standards today. But we pretty much run our machines until they can't power up. So we'd like to get this one back on its perch so to speak with its face time working.
Thank you ahead of time for any advise help given.

A log may help determine what the issue is ...
Open the Console app located in HD > Applications > Utilites
Select: System Diagnostic Reports on the left.

There is a problem with the server's security certificate. The security certificate is not from a trusted certifying authority. SAP Business One is unable to connect to the server

Hello,
I have an issue with connecting client SB1H on Windows, the scenario is as follows:
1.- Server:
     Suse Linux Enterprise Server 11.3 kernel version: 3.0.76-0.11 IBM
     NDB and Server are review 69 SP06
2.- Client:
     Windows 8 Pro Virtual Machine on Microsoft Hyper-V
     SB1H PL 11 version 32bits

When I run SB1H the following message appears:
There is a problem with the server's security certificate. The security certificate is not from a trusted certifying authority. SAP Business One is unable to connect to the server.
Any idea what could be the solution?

Hi,
Please check SAP notes:

Anything you downloaded with the first Apple Id will forever be tied to it, and will always require it to update.
The question here is, why did you think you needed to create a new Apple ID? What was the problem with the first one?
To get rid of th old one, you'll need to delete everything you downloaded with it, and then sign out of the ID in several places around the iPad.
Go to Settings->iTunes & App Stores->Apple ID->Sign out.
Repeat the process, for Facetime, Messages, Mail and any other App you need to sign out of.

I have confirmed the network password, and also tried with resetting the password. I have not idea what else to do. Any help is much appreciated.

ITunes won't upgrade to10.5. Error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor". I need help.

iTunes won't upgrade to10.5. I'm on 10.1.17.
When installing 10.5 it terminates with an error message "There is a problem with the Windows installer package. Contact the package vendor".
It does not provide an error code or details/description to further troubleshoot. As a result I can't upgrade my Apple devices to leverage the cloud.
Any smarts out there who could help?
Using PC Win-7 w/IE 7 (should that matter)
Thanks much

I know there's a million threads like this, but I thought I'd record my experience. I, too, was having the original poster's error when I tried to update iTunes on Windows XP. I think I was stuck on 10.
I solved it by un-installing iTunes and every other Apple app. I discovered that Apple Software Update would not un-install as its MSI file could not be found. I used the "Windows Install Cleanup" tool from Microsoft to remove Apple Software Update from the list of installed programs. Google "kb290301" for a Microsoft page that includes a download link for it. After that, I was able to install a fresh copy of iTunes 10.5.2.
I'm not sure why this app's folder and MSI were missing from my computer. I had once used Laplink PC Mover to move everything from my old computer to this one, and perhaps it missed a bit.
