When I downloaded Lion why did my microsoft word not work, When I downloaded Lion why did my microsoft word not work
Help!! My Microsoft Work does not work with Lion!! Now all my doc will not open
Because Office 2004 is a PPC-only suite and will not work with Lion. Upgrade to Office 2011 for OS X. Or you can try the freeware suite, Libre Office, whose functionality is similar to Office 2007 for Windows.

I would like to make some clarifications.

Hello Julius M
Sorry I haven't got back to you before now but I've had a few problems trying to make this reply.
I was using firefox as my Explorer. When I tried to open your message the system kept looping between 'hotmail logon' and 'connecting' and didn't get anywhere. Also, when I clicked on the 'reply' radio button below your message, nothing happened. ......I've now gone back to using Explorer 8 to try to reply.
to answer your questions:
>I haven't changed any information in account.live.
>I haven't changed the timezone or locale of this computer.
>I experience this latency about 3 weeks ago when a message popped up saying that it had been noticed that I was connected to the US server and did I want to revert back to the UK server. Unfortunately the message didn't stay on the screen long enough for me to click OK of for me to see who sent it. It may have been Microsoft or possibly from Firefox. Just before this, I had downloaded and installed several critical MS updates for Win 7.
>I haven't added any software to this computer recently.
>I haven't changed my ISP provider.
I have uninstalled Firefox and will try again with a fresh installation. Possibly Firefox went wibbly.
Thanks

I've just reloaded Firefox Ver 9 and the problem still exists.
Opening your link in firefox just loops and can't find a connection.
Also, I can't make a reply.
It seems that Firefox doesn't like Win Live Solution Centre or WLSC doesn't like Firefox.

It works OK in IE8 (but Internet Explorer lacks the refinements of other explorers... changability, bookmarks etc)
Hi chriswhitehead,
Since according to you, you did not change any information on your account information, therefore this is issue is not account related. Furthermore, since you did not change your ISP provider therefore this is not an internet connection issue.
It appears that this is a browser issue since you don't have problems with IE8 and the preferred browser does not work well with Hotmail. I have some suggest: please try to deactivate the firewall and access Hotmail via Firefox. If this does not work, please try to open your Hotmail via Firefox using other computer.
Thanks,
Windows Live Julius M.
Hi Julius M
I've tried again with Mozilla Firefox and it failed to allow me to properly open your reply and went into a ' connecting loop' when I tried to send.
IE8 works OK. This reply is with the Opera Browser. Let me know if you get this OK and I will advise Mozilla that their system is defective.
Regards
Chris Whitehead

I opened my account on the MacAir and have the new Mountain Lion showing i purchased. When I open my account on my other two machines it does not show. Any suggestions on why or how to fix?
iMac and Mac Pro
ThanksSADLY not as i downloaded an upgrad to my original PAGES/
i have in the meantim had to open www.icloud. then from there import the file that i am working on and then check on ipad if it uploaded/ yes it did.
but what a waste of time as it doesn not save any changes done automatically back in the cloud....
i am now downloading the new LION and hope that it will fix the problem
i cant find any other way. I was lead to believe that you wrote, it saved automatically, on to the cloud, you then opened anohter device in anotother country even, and the new file was there, waiting, in its latest version.......
and the same magic was supposed to happen in reverse.
It doesn't/
if i have to open a browser, go to www.icloud....why on earth did they not just leave us an icon to drop it in in that case?
I hope the new lion will help resolve the isssue/
any other ideas> keep em coming...thank you so much. -
Hello there, I'm new to the Apple world, and I'm still learning my way around.
Why is when I try to download from the App Store, it says "The application cannot be downloaded."
It doesn't ask me for payment or anything. When I click on download, about 10 seconds later, that message pops up and nothing is downloaded onto my laptop. I can download other stuff onto my laptop for e.g. Microsoft Word and other various programs such as Google Chrome from the internet. However, I just cannot download from App Store. Any suggestions on how I can download apps?There is nothing wrong with my iTunes, is more of the App store that I am concerned about. And I've tried the "Authorise this computer" yes it does download when using iTunes, but no luck with App Store. And, yes I am logged onto iTunes when doing purchases.
I find this really fustrating because the App store works fine on my ipod but once it comes to my macbook, it does not download. A few seconds later after I click on an app to download, the pop up message notifies me that the purchase cannot be downloaded.
Anyways, thanks for your suggestion. -
My MacBookPro with Mountain Lion seems to be making copies of files in my download folder. Why is this happening and how do I stop it?
This issue has nothing to do with Time Machine or local snaphsots. No built-in feature of OS X does what you describe.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}'
Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered. You can do that by copy-and-paste as well. Omit the final line ending in “$”. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. It won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal. -
I am typing this from my tower and not my laptop. I cannot keep my laptop connected long enough to do anything on the internet since downloading Firefox on it.
I am NOT a happy camper. I went directly to the Mozilla web address, and downloaded and installed Firefox browser. It came with GARBAGE! Have had nothing but problems since. Have been working on this since 01/16/2015. It's messed up my internet access as well; I have to keep resetting it.
How on earth did these programs come bundled with my Firefox browser download? and Why are they there?Firefox any version for any OS does not come bundled with extra stuff if you get it from www.mozilla.org
If you found the download site you downloaded from from a search in say Google or Bing then the site was likley one of the Ads above the real search results.
The other possibility is you are already infected.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?
Checked out that link and everything seems to be in order on this machine at this time.
I only have CC installed on this one machine, not even my secondary machine like is permitted. it seems odd that I'm asked to re-accept the Licence Agreement as often as I am. If I had to guess, it's almost every week, if not multiple times some weeks, that all the software will decide I should have to view the licence agreement.
Edit: I've never had any noticeable "errors" activating or anything like that. I just get asked to do it quite frequently.
This activation screen isn't too annoying (it involves clicking one single button), but like I stated earlier, if I'm trying to launch the software by double-clicking on a PSD, AI, PPROJ, AEP, etc... that file will fail to open.
I feel like that's probably not really a bug, but it is frustrating, since I did launch the application with the intent to edit that specific file I tried to open.
Again, something that you guys may consider working on.
Another annoyance is that: agreeing to the licence agreement is a per-application task, so if I see that Licence Agreement dialogue window by opening Photoshop (for example), I know that every other piece of software I have in the suite (Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects, Audition) will be showing me that screen on it's next launch. Probably deliberate for legal purposes that I can't just agree once for the whole suite, but heck, it would save me a lot of minor headaches if it was a unified agreement. -
I have erased my drive and when I try to download Mavericks from OS X Uilities, it says "this apple ID has not purchased Lion", will it work it I buy Lion code from Apple ? Thanks
By OS X Utilities, do you mean Recovery? http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
Can you explain exactly what you did to erase the drive?
And, which Recovery were you in, regular or Internet? (internet recovery starts up showing a spinning globe). -
I have an iMac and a Macbook Pro. Downloaded Mountain Lion. Could no longer send mail messages. Checked my Mail preferences and they were correct. Icalled my ISP and they tried to help make it work by setting some new preferences Did not work. Took Mac Book Pro into ISP to see if they could remedy the problem. They could not. Still cannot send messages. The only thing I did from when mail could send mail and when it could not was to download Mountain Lion on to both computers. Help!
Just realised that with the SSL checked in the smtp set up, password authorisation is required and is put in the box immediately under the SSL checkbox, which is under the port(s) being used. Can now send mail:)

I downloaded 6 software to my phone and is fine, when I did my wifes it deleted all of her contacts and she isnt backed up to outlook, Please Help. I used the same account login/password for the icloud part....
Why would you use the same iCloud login? Do you and your wife share that account for syncing contacts?
Was she actually syncing contacts to any supported app on the computer or a cloud service prior to the update as the iPhone is designed to be used?
Did you not backup the iPhone prior to the update? If this had been done, it should be a simple matter or restoring from that backup to put everything back. -
Why my smart folders dissapear in mail when i close mail application in mountain lion?
Why my smart folders dissapear in mail when i close mail application in mountain lion?
Please help!My results jumped up from around 1000 to 10,000 when I did that.
I think this may have to do with having x11 and xcode installed.
In case anyone is interested, these are the folders I've had to exclude:
User\Library\Developer
System\Library\Frameworks
opt in the root folder of the HD (this is x11. You may have to Finder's 'go to folder' option to get to it.)
There was also Office stuff coming up which looks like it's from the system when you see it (the identities folder and the subfolder within the Office 2011 folder in Applications)
The combination of this stuff seemed to create the impression of more files from the System and Library folders were coming up than actually were.
In case anyone is still reading, the stuff *still* being thrown up that I'm aware of is
Mountain Lion screensavers from the System and Library folders.
PreferencePanes - System, PreferencePanes - User and PreferencePanes - Library folders, which each show up as individual results.
But, as you say, bispymusic, perhaps Apple has deigned that those folders appear in results. Thanks a lot for your help! Have a good one. -
I bought and downloaded a movie to my macair and it showed in my library yesterday. Today however i can not find it. Any idea why that would be? I did buy it and not rent FYI
OK, I think I understand what's happening.
Movies are now stored in iCloud: see http://www.apple.com/itunes/inside-itunes/2012/03/movies-now-available-on-icloud .html
So they may take a while to download to your Mac. Movies are big, after all.
I believe you can guarantee the movie stays on your Mac by going to Preferences (in the iTunes menu at the top), and going to the "Advanced" tab, and checking "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library".
Hope that helps! -
Using iPad Pages, I inserted emoji characters successfully in a document. They appeared when the document was synced to my iPhone but the characters did not appear when synced to my iMac (Mountain Lion). Only blank spaces where they should have been Why?

Why does it say "unsupported language/platform" when I try to download Acrobat Standard? I have the latest updates of IE and Google Chrome and have tired both.
The message doesn't mention IE or Chrome - it mentions language/platform.
So...what is the language of your system?
And what is your platform - by which we mean for example Windows Vista or Mac OS Lion.
