Track changes balloons post maverick

Since upgrading to maverick, I can no longer see track changes in balloons in the side panel but have to hover over the highlight to read them. Is there anyway I can go back to the way the balloons were displayed before (ie in the side panel all the time)?
Thanks

    Since upgrading to OS X Mavericks I have not been able to work on any MS Word tracked changes documents (works fine if no tracked changes or comments in the doc). Every time upon opening such a word file with tr.changes the word processor closes / crashes.
    What can be done in this case?

    I just discovered that by turning off in tracked changes balloons in Word preferences prevents the software from crashing, but from then on I need to use only the review pane.

  • In Word 2010, can I track changes in both Inline views and the balloon area?

    Hi All,
    I was working with a user and she wanted to be able to track changes both inline, and on the right balloon as well. Is this possible in Work 2010? Thank you for your help!

    You can't have both balloons and inline tracking at the same time, but you can switch between them at any time.

  • Microsoft Word: track changes, same timestamp on every comment balloon

    Hello. I am having an issue with track changes. I can work on a document that has 2 reviewers or up to 10+ reviewers. Sometimes I see that in comment balloons the timestamp/date is the same on every single one. I do not understand why this is happening.
    If anyone has run into this error before, please let me know if its a setting in Word that I need to unclick, etc.

    What's the version of Word you are using?
    How 2 or more reviewers shared the document and review it?
    The timestamp/date is based on the reviewer's computer time, locate him and then eliminate timestamp in that document. Let the reviewer test the behavior.
    Thanks.

  • Word blacks out text; possibly related to Track Changes feature

    (also posted to Microsoft Answers forum, but I suspect that this is going to need Pro assistance!)
    I was editing a 150+ page document in Word 2007 (on Windows 7 PC with all updates applied). I'd already been working with the document for several hours when suddenly large chunks of the document were blacked out. Paging up or down eliminated the problem
    momentarily, but further edits caused it to happen over and over again. Some squiggly underlines show through the black, but little else. We realized that it was happening when I had Track Changes on and displayed the changes in balloons rather than inline;
    when I moved the mouse into the area where the balloons were displayed, that's when the text was blacked out.
    We figured that the document was corrupted. However, this is also happening now with another document that's much shorter and far cleaner than the first one. The problem also occurs on PCs other than mine. I opened a clean template, pasted the
    unformatted text from the source document into the clean template, and the problem persists in the new doc, so I don't think it's a problem with the documents -- or at least not solely.
    We tried this on a newer PC with a ramped-up video card and got the same results. It has not happened (near as we can tell) with Track Changes turned off, but I must track the changes I make so working with TC off isn't an option.
    Before anyone asks, I cannot provide a copy of any of the documents because they are strictly confidential.
    TIA!

    Hi,
    I have tried in my Word 2007 with Track Changes and I cannot reproduce the issue.
    Since you also tried in other files and PCs, so try to open the file in safe mode to check the issue.
    For more information about safe mode, please refer to the link:

  • Unable to email Pages 5.0 doc with track changes

    In Safari, when trying to attach a Pages doc (Pages 5.0 in Mavericks) with track changes in gmail I get an "Attachment failed" error. In Chrome, I'm able to attach and send the file, but the person I've sent it to is unable to open it. Is anyone experiencing anything similar and/or has discovered a fix?
    Thanks!

    No, they get an error when they try to open it, and they do have the same version of Pages. Yes, I did end up having to export it as a temporary solution, and I don't think the track changes stayed. I was wondering if not being able to send Pages files with track changes is a common issue with Pages 5.0. If you try emailing a Pages 5.0 file with track changes, are the recipients able to open it with track changes in Pages?

  • How to track changes between documents

    We are trying to find ways to track/compare changes between two or more versions of an InDesign document. We need to be able to store these version changes in a master version tracking document. We know InDesign can track text changes in a story but we need to know more than that, like graphic or style changes. Is there a plugin out there that can compare two versions of an InDesign document and list/print out the differences?  Acrobat has this feature but we haven't found this for InDesign. Any suggestions?

    Hello,
    I hesitated to post the plugins because my company is the publisher of one of them.
    You will find them all at:
    http://www.pluginsworld.com/
    Search for BlackLining from EMS, CtrlChanges from Ctrl Publishing and EditMarks BlackLining from Kerntiff Publishing Systems.
    We are responsible for EditMarks.
    As I said we do not track changes to objects.
    All the best.

  • Microsoft word 2008 crashes abruptly when trying to use track changes

    Hi,
    I believe this may be related to recently downloading Yosemite:
    Every time I try to use Microsoft Word (2008) with "track changes" on, Word shuts off abruptly.
    Has any one else had this problem?  Is there a way to fix it?
    I've already tried Disk Utility - disk & disk permissions repair.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Office for Mac 2011: Tips for speeding up Word when using tracked changes and comments?

    I run a fresh installation of Office for Mac 2011 (v. 14.4.1) on a brand new Macbook Pro 13" Retina 2.4GHz with 16GB RAM running 10.9.2. The Office package is fully up-to-date.
    I mainly use Word and find that it is extremely slow when I track changes. Documents need not be particularly large - even in a 30-page document after a few pages of tracks typing becomes a pain, in particular in comment bubbles where the text shows up letter-by-letter and only finish several seconds after I've stopped typing. Other programs run at the same time do not suffer from this horrible lag.
    I have searched and seen that this is not uncommon so it appears that Microsoft's coders are not particularly well versed in coding for Mac.
    My question is if other users have found ways to improve the situation, for instance by trashing plists or something like that? This is really driving me crazy
    Many TIA

  • Photosmart C309a - Printing Track Changes on document

    Whenever I try to print my document which has track changes and comments, the comments don't appear on the printed page even though they show on the print preview.  If I print double sided (duplex) the comment number appears in the text, but the comments themselves don't appear anywhere.  If I print single sided, the comments appear in the balloons, but are cut off at the margin.
    I have tried different settings but with no result.  If I print this at work, it prints without a problem, so I can only assume that I need to click something (or unclick!)  on my printer options to get the information onto the printed page.  I am a newbie with track changes, so may be doing something wrong, but in that event I wouldn't expect it to print out at work.
    Can anyone help me, please?

  • Share track changes?

    is there any way that i can use the track changes feature in CS6 to display changes to my client using the cloud? for instance, is there any way to post the story editor version of a document to the cloud? or can you capture story editor updates in a PDF? client doesn't have indesign capabilities, and it would be great to find a way to share editorial changes made in the layout.
    any suggestions greatly appreciated.

  • Microsoft Word: Changing user/reviewer in track changes

    Apologies for posting about non-apple software. Just hoping someone can help:
    I often review drafts of long documents multiple times, sometimes weeks apart, using track changes in the latest version of MSWord. I would like to be able to differentiate between reviewing sessions by changing the color of the tracked changes. I feel like there should be a way, could I change the user even if I am using the same computer?

    You're correct, wrong forums. Post to and search at http://www.officeformac.com/productforums/

  • Report to track changes to infotypes prior to running the  payroll interfac

    wants a report to track changes to infotypes prior to running the  payroll interface.  The attached report looks like it should work but it returns nothing.  Is there config that turns on "Track Changes": for select infotypes?  If so, can they be activated for key infotypes so this report will run?
    Name, Address, position, etc.
    Not attendance and absence ITs.

    Hi,
    IMG – Personnel Management – Personnel Admin – Tools – Revision – Set up change document:
    This node has three items:
    Infotypes to be logged
    Field Group Definitions
    Field Group Characteristics
    Using these three options you define which infotypes you wish to log, then which fields, then you define which groups of fields are to be saved. Click each link, or see the sections below:
    Infotypes to be logged
    Here you define which PA infotype numbers you require logging. Select New Entries and enter a transaction class (A for Pers Admin, B for recruitment), then enter the infotype number and save.
    Field Group Definition
    When changes are made to a logged infotype, the field contents before and after are recorded. This is the very reason for logging the infotype, but there is an overhead in performance and disk space used so it needs to be given consideration. Typically you will want to record fields that are pay relevant.
    Using the field group definition, you specify which fields you wish to record changes in. When any of the fields in the group are changed, all the fields in the group are saved. You can use an asterisk to log all the fields of the infotype but this is not recommended for space and performance, also there are many fields on an infotype that you will not be using, that will be saved also. Ideally you will pick individual fields of the infotype and enter them like so:
    The field group number is a freely defined number you allocate to the group, it will be used in the next step. For normal use, simply pick any number not already used in that infotype. All fields with the same field group number are recorded in the log, even if they have not changed.
    Click New Entries and enter the infotype number, field group number and field names that you wish to record.
    Field Group Characteristics
    When you have set up the field group numbers, use the field group characteristics to activate the logging of those fields. You can also specify a supplementary field group; this means that the contents of another field group can also be saved at the same time, even though the contents have not changed. In practise it is not used much. Simply select new entries, enter the transaction class, infotype, and in the DocFieldGr enter the number you assigned to the field names that you want to store, then enter L for Long Term Documents (short are not supported)
    The Audit Report
    To access the report showing the logged infotype changes, use the HR report tree available from various menu paths, including:
    Main Menu – Human Resources – Pers Management – Administration – Info System – Reports - Documents – Infotype change – logged changes in infotype data. (RPUAUD00).
    When you run the report, select the infotypes you require, and select and execute.
    Cheers

  • Reports to track changes on Deliveries and Sales order

    Hi All
    Do you perhaps know of a specific report that could possibly track changes made to a Sales order and delivery at line item level.
    The problem is change log only logs the deletion of the line item but not the actual material number.
    Do we have to enhance existing reports to achieve visibility for deletion of line items.
    Regards
    KC

    Hi Lakshi
    Thank you very much for that feedback the thing is that you can search that on an order per order basis and even when you get to the change log you will not be able to see what material number was deleted.
    That is the problem.
    Has anyone experienced this wher the requirement was to have a report to run so see what changes have been made to orders or deliveries that they could view wholistically.
    Kind Regards
