Word 2013 crashes when I open a second document

Hello,
I have installed Word 2013 a few days ago. Opening a document works fine, word starts without a problem. But as soon as I try to open a second document, the whole program crashes. And when I try to open the recovered document, it crashes as well.

Hi,
This issue seems to be related to add-ins.
Try disabling all add-ins, test if the issue persists:
1. Open Word 2013.
2. Click on File -> Options -> Add-ins.
3. Under Manage select -> COM Add-ins.
4. Click on GO options beside Manage, uncheck all the add-ins and click
OK.
Try to open Word and check if it works fine.

InDesign CS5.5 keeps crashing when I open a particular document

InDesign CS5.5 keeps crashing when I open a particular document. This suddenly started happening a few hours ago, and other files are unaffected. I downloaded a backup from last week and that was fine, but I need to get this latest version working again. I've cleared out the Recovery folder, deleted Preferences, and even reinstalled InDesign - all to no avail.
I'm running Windows 8.
Any help gratefully received!

Even after emptying the recovery folder?
It's either a damaged install or a bad font or some other conflict. Do the font trouble-shooter first, then move to checking for a conflict.
To check for a conflict, go to the start button and in the Search field Type msconfig to bring up the configuration utility. Open it, go to the Services tab and click the box to Hide All Microsoft Services. You can uncheck just about anything that's left (for diagnostic purposes) except FLEXnet Licensing Services and a service starting with ##ID_String... which are part of the Adobe licensing sytem and need to be active for Adobe product to run.
Now switch to the Startup tab, and uncheck everything except your mouse driver and the Adobe Service Manager for this version.
Reboot. Ignore the warning about startup in diagnostic mode for the moment and Launch ID and see if it works. If it does, go back msconfig and add back startup programs in groups, rebooting each time and repeat the test until you get a failure. If all the startup programs work, repeat with the services tab. If nothing causes a problem I have no idea what's going on.
On the other hand, if ID fails again straight off with all that stuff disabled, the installtion is corrupt. Run the cleaner tool (CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3) and reinstall while still in diagnostic mode, then run msconfig one last time to restore normal startup.

My PSE 7.0 crashes when I open a second picture

The program shuts down when I open a second picture in Photo Shop Elements 7.0.
I did the same on a different computer and then it works fine.
I did the same with a different account on the same computer and that also works fine.
So it has something todo with settings in my account but what can it be?
I tried to solve it with Adobe support but they where not able to help me, they direct me to Microsoft which I think is very strange because it is a malfunction in a Adobe program.

Try setting a different default printer, as described here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/402/kb402704.html
It's unfortunately all too common that Adobe's customer support can't use its own knowledgebase.

Word 2013 crashes when doing a save as pdf

Word 2013 will crash when doing a 'save as' pdf

It sounds like an item in HD/Library/Contextual Menu Items. Drag the contents of that folder to the desktop and test again. If that sorts it put the items back one at a time to find the culprit..
If that's not it, go to ~(yourHome)/Library/Contextual Menu Items and do the same.
Open "Console" in your Utilities folder. From the Sidebar choose: Log
Files >> CrashReporter >> "~/ Library Logs" >> Preview and paste the contents here for the latest Preview crash and maybe we can figure what's going on.

Mail app crashes when InDesign opens a new document

I am using InDesign CS5.5 and the standard mac Mail on an imac running OSX 10.7.3. When I open an existing InDesign file the mail app crashes. It doesnt do this with any other application.
Has anyone had the same experience ad could let me know how to fix this please.

I use the exact same configuration on two computers with no problems whatsoever.
I can't think of why InDesign would have anything to do with Mail crashing unless you're severely constrained in RAM on your computer.

Word 2013 Crashes When Opening A Word 2007 Or Older Document

I have this issue on every computer in our office. An outside source is sending in Word documents in docx format. Each time we try to open one of the files, Word with error out and close.
My wifes company uses Office 2010 and she can open the documents without any errors. We use Office 365 Pro Plus 32-bit.
Has anyone see this before.
I have disabled all add-in on my machine and started Word in safe mode. All the same.
I am able to open it in Protected Mode or in the option to Open and Repair.

An outside source is sending in Word documents in docx format. Each time we try to open one of the files, Word with error out and close.
What does the error say? Have you ever checked the event log? Anything useful there?
(If you would like us to help analyze the logs, you can send the log file to this email account:
[email protected] and inform us here. Please use the link of this thread as the subject.)
As far as I know, when a file is opened in Protected View, all active file content, such as ActiveX controls, add-ins, database connections, hyperlinks, and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros, is not enabled.
Since you are able to launch these files in Protected Mode, probably some of the mentioned file content in these old version of files are causing the issue. You might want to troubleshoot on this aspect, check whether these files contain any of the mentioned
content. Remove them, then try again, or have a check with a plain text document from the same source and see if issue persists.

Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes

Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes. I have tried a quick repair and an online repair. I have uninstalled Office 365 and reinstalled it. I have tried opening WINWORD in safe mode.

So the attachment itself is OK, and Word can open it successfully on the desktop. In this case, issue tends to be more on the Lotus Notes side.
We don't have a test environment for this currently, I'd suggest you check the Lotus Notes forum and see if other customers are having similar issues and any solutions out there.
On the Word side, you can check the event logs to see if there is anything useful there.

Word 2013 crashes

I had a document that was 11x17 inch with few sections. I tried to reduce the page size for whole document to 5.5x8.5 size and Word 2013 crashed.
I removed all sections and removed all headers and footers and still it crashed.
I then saved document as .doc extension instead of .docx and then it worked.
When I again saved that as .docx again, it crashes again. I can no longer open the document in Word 2013 as it says that "Word has stopped working".
I can open same fine in Word 2010 or Word 2007 on Mac but not on Word 2013. All other docs open fine except this one.
I tried all suggestions such as rename normal.dot, remove registry data but it did not work.
This is what I see in event log.

Hi Anabas,
First, please create a new document and open it in Word 2013 to check if it works properly. If it works fine, you can copy entire content of that document into the new one.
If it doesn't, we can try these steps to check if it is helpful to you.
1. Make sure that all Office applications have updated to the latest version.
2. Open Word in safe mode (press win +r, type Word.exe /safe) to remove conflict with other 3rd-party add-ins.
3. Repair Office 2013 from Control Panel > Programs and Features.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,

Outlook 2013 crashes when PDFMaker add-in is enabled

Outlook 2013 crashes when the Acrobat v.11.0.3 PDFMaker add-in is enabled. Outlook 2013 will automatically disable the add-in.
The Outlook 2013 version is 15.0.4517.1509, 32 bit. Windows 7 Pro 64 bit is the OS.
Below is the screenshot of the Outlook Account Info page.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

I was having to start Outlook 2013 two times every time I turned on my computer (running Windows 8.1 64-bit). The first time, Adobe Acrobad crashed Outlook, disabled PDF Maker, and closed. The second time Outlook started, told me it disabled PDF Maker, and gave me the option to re-enable. I then click to re-enable PDF Maker.
However, I tried LoriAUC's suggestion #1, to launch Outlook 2013 as Administrator. When I did that, Outlook just started up without disabling PDF Maker and without crashing. And PDF Maker remained availble to use within Outlook. That's the way it should always work.
So, I remember that Outlook ran fine with PDF Maker until this month of February 2014. I wonder what changed, Outlook or Acrobat Standard Edition so that Outlook crashes (unless running Outlook as Administrator).
In the meantime, I wonder how to make Outlook start as Administrator automatically without my having to do any extra steps. Or is there a better fix.

PSE7 crashes when I open two gif files. Any ideas?

Hi,
I've just installed PSE7. Works fine with one image open. However when I open a second image (gif or jpg) it crashes. Every time. Even if all I do is open one image then immediately open the second, it crashes. I've tried different images and accessing them on a different disk, but repeatedly, reproducibly I can crash the application by opening a second image file.
Since this doesn't happen on my home machine (where I have a second licensed copy) I can only assume there's some problem in the configuration on my work system: Windows XP Pro SP3 plus latest updates, Intel Core2 Quad CPU 2.4GHz, 3.25Gb memory. eSet antivirus.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You may need to change your default printer. To quickly diagnose that, try solution 3 of this tech note:

If that's the problem, then solutions 1 and 2 may apply.

Updated Scrabble on my iPad now it crashes when I open app, how do I fix without losing games I am playing now?

Updated Scrabble on my iPad, now it crashes when I open. How do I fix, without losing games I am playing now?

I have a similar issue. I have the CS4 Design Premium with all updates on an iMac running 10.6. All Adobe apps work except for Flash 10.0.2.566. All apps worked perfectly under 10.5. Within seconds of loading a file or clicking 'New' Flash terminates generating an Apple crash report (see exerpt below) - not an Adobe crash report.
Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x0000000000000004
Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread
(BTW, sometimes a normal Quit is interpreted as a crash by the other CS4 apps. Could this be related?)

Hi,
Please check ULS log for more information about error to help narrow down the issue.
If you find error message as "the service '/_vti_bin/spclaimproviderwebservice.svc' cannot be activated due to an exception during compilation, The exception message is: This collection already contains an address with scheme http, There can be
at most one address per scheme in this collection.
http://xblogs.kompas-xnet.si/post/SharePoint-Designer-2013-Crashing-when-using-select-peoplegroups-from-SharePoint-site.aspx
Then the issue might be caused by more than one IIS Site Binding in single web application.
Please firstly remove AAM settings following the steps below:
In IIS manager, remove the added url binding from IIS site for SharePoint web application.
In CA, remove url under AAM settings and execute IISReset. Now you can check if the issue is resolved.
If you need to configure AAM for your web application, please extend web application and set AAM on the extended web application.
