What happened to the Microsoft Office suite when I loaded Lion?
I loaded Lion operating system last night and rushed without reading all of the fine print. After the Lion was loaded I received a notice that Microsoft Office Suite was not supported. My questions are, 1) Can Lion support the Microsoft Office Suites (maybe a newer version) 2) Can I return to the previous Operating System?
Never mind!
Thanks
1. Microsoft Office for Mac 2008 & 2011 versions support OS X Lion
2. Yes, you can downgrade to Snow Leopard if you have up-to-date Time Machine backups, however I won't recommend you to do that.
Over the weekend Microsoft published a knowledge base article that outlines some known issues with Office for Mac on OS X 10.7. Overall, if you have Office 2004 and rely on it, then do not upgrade to OS X Lion until you have an alternative Office version installed (2008 or preferably 2011). Office 2004 is PowerPC code, and as with Intuit's Quicken 2007 and earlier versions, if you install Lion then you will not be able to launch Office 2004.

Does iWork for iOS allow me to open and edit documents created in the Microsoft Office suite?
Hi all,
I have just purchased an iPad 2 32Gb. I want to be able to use it for work.
I need to be able open and edit documents created in Microsoft Office. Primarily .doc and .docx files. Is this possible? or am I better with D2 or Documents to Go.
Also, can I save a document attachment from an email and open it on my iPad for reviewing and editing?
Cheers

Yes, "pages.app" will open these files. In the same manner "numbers.app" will open xls,xlsx and "keynote.app" will open powerpoint files.
iwork09 files from a Mac can also be opened. And you can save each files back in various file formats, also save them as pdf.
Also, can I save a document attachment from an email and open it on my iPad for reviewing and editing?
Yes. "open in .." then a suitable app is in the list : say you get a docx, then pages will be presented as app to open it.
Cheers

Enjoy it. -

What happened to the files from MobileMe when it went to ICloud
Am I crazy or does ICLOUD not store anything which isn't a MAC application. Did all the files which I had stored on Mobile Me just disappear?
Your iDisk remains untouched and can be accessed exactly as before, except that the migration process usually signs you out of System Preferences>MobileMe so you need to sign in again to mount your iDisk on the Desktop (you can of course access it at http://me.com/idisk ).
iCloud does not provide general file storage in the manner of iDisk, so as iDisk is terminating at the end of June you will need to find a third-party alternative. This page examines some options:

nothing happened, something on your end perhaps.
It shows the exact same amount of posts as it use to be
months and years
ago... 100 to 150 on general, 200 on action script - pretty
consistent...

Will microsoft office disappear when I upgrade to Yosemite?
How do I upgrade without losing the microsoft office suite?
You just upgrade... Of course, you should have a backup of your computer first, just in case something goes wrong.
Upgrading OS X will not delete installed software from your computer unless it is incompatible.
So long as you're running Office 2008 or 2011, you should be fine. -
I just download mountain lion to my mac, now microsoft office suite doesn't work....it says 'you can't open the application 'microsoft word' because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. What does this mean and what do I have to do to fix it?? HELP!!
Install Snow Leopard on another boot partition, or upgrade Microsoft Office to a newer version, or use any number of better alternatives. Some of them are free.
Consider
LibreOffice (donation-supported)
NeoOffice ($10)
OpenOffice (completely free)
In addition to the above I also recommend Apple's Pages ($19.99). I use OpenOffice and Pages and have been completely Microsoft - free for over a year now. Life is better without Microsoft. -
I downloaded mountain lion and then the new office suite (word, ppt, excel) but now when I try to display one of my ppt's it says 'ppt cannot open the file...the file may be corrupt, in use, not a type recognized by ppt etc.." how can I fix it?? HELP
Did you try to open teh fle by double-clicking its icon? If the file was made with an older version of Office, you may get that message. Try opeing PP and, from its "File" menu, see if you can open the ppt. I've foundthat often gets around that message and then yo ucan save the file from the newer version.
If that doesn't work, consider asking in the Microsoft Office: Mac forums here:

When we do a failover to a Replica, what happened to the connected clients? Assuming that the Replica is located in a remote DR site with a different IP configuration.
Hi,
I need some guidance here, please.
I have some questions about replication:
When we do a failover to a Replica, what happened to the connected clients? Assuming that the Replica is located in a remote DR site with a different IP configuration.
Is possible to automate the failover process? Just like happens in a cluster.
What changes do I need to do in order to guarantee that my clients reach my replica? For example, I need to do a failover to my Exchange Server Replica and I need to minimize the downtime. The same applies for a DC or a SharePoint Server
Thanks in advanced.Hi efebo,
“The same applies for a DC ”
As for replicating virtualized DC (Personally, I do not suggest to replicate DC , even though it can be replicate ), please refer to following link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn250021.aspx
"In short, Exchange does
not support the Hyper-V Replica feature. Exchange has a long history of supporting virtualisation from
Exchange 2003 onwards. It is fully supported to install Exchange
2007,
2010 or
2013 as a virtual machine on Hyper-V, but using the Hyper-V replica feature is not supported.
For details please refer to following link:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/rmilne/archive/2013/07/29/exchange-and-hyper-v-replica-support.aspx
I assuming that the "Remote DR site" and the primary site both have public IPs .
Based on my knowledge you can not access replica site VM directly after a disaster , maybe you need to rebuild primary site and replicate VM back .

I just installed Lion. Now my Microsoft Office Suite won't work. What's wrong ??
If you had used the search box in the upper right of this page you could have answered this question on your own.
You have a few options: restore back to Snow Leopard from the backup you made before you installed Lion; upgrade to Office for Mac 2011; install Pages from the Mac App Store; use TextEdit; install one of the many open source Office replacements that can found. -
What happens to the open item in bsid table when it is cleared
hi experts,
i have a doubt about open and cleared items of accounting documents. as we know open items of customers are stored in bsid and cleared ones in bsad. For suupose, an open item is closed ina particular period then what happened to the entry in bsid and bsad table. an entry regarding is stored in bsad (cleared),and what happens to the entry in bsid, still it will be there or removed from it.Hi,
When ever we clear the document(Complete payment) that document will be moved to BSAD table. Other wise it will remain in BSID.
If u are making partial payment then all the partial payment documents along with original document will be stored in BSID till u made the complete payment for that invoice.
Assumption is u have to give all partial payment documents made for particular invoice item while u are making complete payment in F-28 transaction. So that these partail payment documents will also be cleared while making complete payment and moved to BSAD table.
This trasaction can be used for both partial and complete payments.
Irrespective of complete or partial payments made all the documents will remain stored in BKPF and BSEG tables.
BSID and BSAD are index tables to address performance issues with BKPF and BSEG tables.
So all open and cleared documents will be there in BKPF and BSEG tables.
All cleared documents will be there in BSAD table.
Alll open documents will be there in BSID table.
Hope it is clear.
Thanks,
Vinod. -
I recently updated all of the computers in the house to itunes 11. Now when we try to import songs from homesharing, we are unable to. What happened to the conveniently located "import song" button on the old version of itunes. Please help an old mother out please!
diesel vdub, i use 11.1.1
solved the issue today. first sync with itunes, so all the stiff you bought on the mobile will be backuped.
1. uncheck sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be erased from mobile device
2. check music player on the mobile device. just the unwanted songs will still be there
3. go on the iphone to settings, general, usage, music player. there is just a few mb from the remaining unwanted songs. swipeleft and erase the content. switch iphone off and on again
4. repeat step 2. there will be no data. otherwise repeat step 3
5. check sync music in itunes and sync. all the music will be back again but not the unwanted songs. -
What happened to the nifty "sync" button in iTunes? It syncs as soon as I plug it in, and that's great! BUT! When I go to the iTunes Store and buy new stuff, I can't just 'sync' the device again so my new stuff gets added. Why?
Nothing happened to it.
It is still there. Maybe it says apply now, not sure, but it is still there. -
What is happening in the most recent keynote when I click on a slide and it pulses (larger-smaller) Two of my slides have disappeared in the navigator although if I play through them they are there and the slides have their orignal number--there are just white spaces where the slide should be and I can only get to the slide by clicking through from the prior slide. How do I get the sldies back into the navigator so I can see them. Oddly, they are show up just find on the light table.
Try removing any transitions or builds on these slides, or delete the slides then recreate them as fresh slides.
There are many playback anomalies in Keynote 6 which Apple have said they will be sorting out next year.
