Word 2001 is Missing the "File" Menu

I am missing the "FILE" menu from word. I Have the apple menu edit, view, insert, format etc... but "FILE" is missing.
I rebuilt the desktop trashed word's preferences, zapped PRAM. Copied the App from a cloned hard drive but "FILE" will not come back no matter what I do.
The app does respond to the keyboard commands found in the file menu but I don't have all of those memorized. And it seems to work fine otherwise.
Any clues to help me trouble-shoot this would be appreciated.
THANKS

Jack,
Go back into Preferences and trash the Word Preferences again. And empty the trash. In fact use Sherlock to make sure all Word Settings files are gone.
I used to get this (and still do sometimes). I seemed to get it more with Excel and the Data menu. Can't say how long it would be gone for, but as soon as I needed to use it to sort data, I'd see it was gone.

The File Menu options is missing in PSE v9?

I called support a year or more ago and they provided a fix. This was after i first upgraded. Now I have had to reinstall the OS on my PC and re-install PSE downloaded from site.
No File menu! Can you Help?

Lots of information. But it noe of it provided a solution to my problem. In fact I had the problem of no File menu when I first bought PSE 9.
As a new customer for that version, I was eligble for support via a live person.
They gave me a fix and voila! There was the file menue with about a dozen menu options including seach, get photos from camera, import, export, create new catalog, and more.
I did not forsee that my system would eventually crash and require a re-image. And new install of PSE. When I did so the file functionality was missing again but I did not save the instructions. Been a little over a year.

Missing menu items in the 'File' menu? Missing 'Place..' option?

Hello there!
I use photoshop everyday to edit pictures and thumbnails for Youtube and videos, but recently I've noticed that the 'Place' option from the File Menu has gone missing? I've checked to see if I might have accidentally hidden the visibility of 'Place' within the File Menu, but it doesn't even appear in the Hidden Menu settings? I have no idea how this happened, but I think it may be a plugin issue, because I cannot find one trace of it within the Photoshop application! Any help would be fantastic!
Thank you!

Have a read of this: Photoshop CC 14.2 update – Linked Smart Objects
Glad I could help.

I have just updated to Final Cut Pro 10.1.4 - I have updated Projects and Events on my external hard drives (off the File menu). It's says under several projects 'missing file' - but they were all there working fine before I updated. I am working off 2 external drives - not sure if that would make a difference.

After the update each seperate connected drive should now have a seperate Library.
The older Projects and Events folders would have to be at the top level of those drives go be seen and updated.
Were all the necessary Projects and Events in the corrrct place before updating?

I just started a free trial of the Adobe XI product that allows me to create an editable PDF. I'm done creating the form and ready to export it. When I click Export PDF from the File menu, it says Adobe encountered an unexpected error. What am I doing wrong?

Good to know — there is no such application as "Adobe XI".
"Adobe" is the name of the company.
"XI" is indicative of the use of either Acrobat XI or Reader XI.
Neither Acrobat XI Pro (for which Adobe provides a free, fully functional 30-day trial) nor Adobe Reader XI (the free to download and use PDF viewer that Adobe provides) have an "Export PDF" entry under "File".
"Export PDF" only is present in Adobe Reader XI over on the right on the "Tools" panel.
The "Tools" panel provides a way for a user of Adobe Reader XI to connect to various By Subscription online services (gotta pay eh).
Export PDF is one of these. A subscription lets you send a PDF file to the online internet service (aka "cloud" service). The service then exports to a supported file format (Word / Excel / ...) and the user selects / directs where the output file is to be saved on the user's local machine.
Of course to use any of the online subscription services one must have an active (paid up in full) subscription to the service.
So ---- As described the puzzle pieces don't fit eh.
What specific Adobe (the company) applications are you using?
Acrobat XI Pro? Adobe Reader XI? Both?
Be well....

How do I prevent Firefox from locking up when I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu (resetting Firefox didn't solve the problem)?

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium OS on Dell XPS 420 system. Firefox locks up each time I click on "Save As" under the "File" menu. Resetting Firefox did NOT solve the problem. If, instead of using Firefox, I log on to a website using Microsoft Windows Internet Explorer, the "Save As" feature works fine, as it should. I would occasionally like to save a web page, using "Save As" while using Firefox, instead of copying the page to a Word Document, and then saving it.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

All office programs crash when I click on the File menu

I can open files in every program fine but as soon as I go to the File Menu it puts up the "program" is not responding box
Excel, Word and PowerPoint all crash when trying for the File Menu.
Outlook will let me go to the File Menu but if I click on Office Account then it will crash. I have uninstalled and reinstalled once already.

Hi,
Since you have re-installed Office, this issue may conflict with some other 3rd-party applications. We can check if Office still crash in clean boot mode.
About how to perform a clean boot, please refer to this KB.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
If this issue still exists, please try to collect the Event log. And you can also upload them through One Drive and share the link to me. I’ll be able to analyze this issue in detail as soon as accessing it.

"open in camera RAW" is not an option in the file menu

Using Photoshop/Bridge CS3, Windows XP Pro SP2, and ACR 4.5, the "open in camera RAW" is not an option in the file menu. Why is this option missing and how can I get it back?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,
The D610 requires camera raw 8.3 which is not compatible with your PSE 10.
You need to upgrade to PSE 12 (or later) or use the free Adobe DNG converter. The converter will take a flder containg your NEF files and converte them to DNG files. The DNG files can then be used by PSE 10.
DNG Converter 8.7

"Save for web and devices" missing in File menu

In Illustrator CS5, Win 7, "Save for Web and devices" is missing, ever since recently installed. A reinstall with all defaults does not fix it. Nor does deleting the Adobe "Illustrator CS5.1 Settings" folder. The File menu entry is not grayed out. It is missing. The applicaiton is up to date.
(A) A clue is when opening Illustrator this error dialog appears: "Error loading plugins. DxfDwg.aip PNGFileFormat.aip". However, both files exist in the "Plug-ins\Illustrator Formats" folder.
(B) Closing Illustrator and restarting gives a different error message: "Some plug-ins have been updated. You will need to relauch Illustrator for the changes to take effect."
(C) Closing and restarting takes me back to (A).
Web searches reveal this to be a perennial problem. There is, however, nothing in Adobe support about it I could find. This is a showstopper.
Thanks!

Larry,
Thanks!
No. I did a support call this morning. Reinstalls from a DVD and a
download both failed to solve the problem. He did not suggest the
cleaner step.
I did check to see that Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator
CS5.1 was empty after uninstalling AI 5. Then I deleted it.
So what I've done is uninstalled AI CS5 again. Then I downloaded the
cleaner. Here's what it says:
    "List of products installed on this machine:
    1. Adobe Premiere Pro CS5 Family
    2. Adobe Photoshop CS5
    3. Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.5
    4. Clean All."
It thus appears there is no way to clean just AI. So I quit the cleaner.
I will report to the forum on how Adobe support fixes this problem. I'm
now awaiting their reply on the case.
Thanks so much. Wish I could help you!

Both "Save As..." and Duplicate are missing from file menu

Just upgraded and am running OS X 10.8.2 and Keynote 5.3... The file menu has only Close, Save, Revert to Saved, Export in that section. Pressing the option key doesn't change duplicate to Save As... since Duplicate is missing as well. When I press shift-command-S i get an error sound and option-shift-command-S does nothing... Every other mac app is working fine. Obviously, I need some help.

Thanks for the response. I got a fix for it. Went to another account on the mac and keynote had the proper file menu options listed. Under library/Preferences I trashed all the iWork related plist and the Cache file--Rebooted and all was back in order. Wish I could say I figured this out all by myself, but Apple support walked me through it. FYI if you run across anyone else with this type of issue.

Hi jcatx2013, we don't really have enough information on your system to make specific suggestions...
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings). More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference?

How can I Hide(not Disable) the Save As and Exit options in the File menu of Excel Documents in SharePoint 2013?

Hi,
I want to hide(not disable) the "Save As" and "Exit" options in the File Menu of Excel Documents in SharePoint 2013.When I make changes in the excelribbon.css file of xlviewer.aspx,all the options under File menu are getting hidden but
I want to hide only these two options while retaining the others.
Kindly suggest me a method to achieve this.
Looking forward to your reply at the earliest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sanjana

Hi Sanjana,
To hide the “Save As” and “Exit” options in xlviewer.aspx page in SharePoint, I recommend to use the code below(however it is not recommended):
<style>
div.cui-menusection li.cui-menusection-items:nth-child(2)
display:none !important;
div#m_excelWebRenderer_ewaCtl_menuJewelSaveAs{
display:none !important;
div#m_excelWebRenderer_ewaCtl_msJewelSecondary{
display:none !important;
</style>
As “:nth-child()” selector is supported in IE 9 and later versions, please use IE 9 or later versions’ IE browser.

Best regards.
