Did I miss something in the fine print? I installed Lion and and come to find out, I can no longer open any Word documents or Excel spreadsheets as they are no longer supported (being PowerPC apps). Seriously?!?!?!?!! What are my alternatives?

Hi Mary and Matthew
You might find it helpful to "try before you buy" - there is a 30 day free trial offer for Office for Mac 2011, accessible from M's .com website.
You may be able to use this period to open and resave your old documents in a format that enables you to switch instead to using Apple's iWorks apps moving forward.
I initially intended to do something similar, but ended up buying Office as it provided an easier way (for me, at least) to continue working with years worth of old emails, letters, spreadsheets and other documents (from my PC days) without risking damage to their integrity, formatting, etc.

Is it possible to create a word doc or excel in iPad Air

Is it possible to create a word doc or excel in iPad Air? Also is it possible to open or transfer documents from my computer to my iPad?

Yes. you will need the appropriate apps to do that. some options:
Apple's Pages and Number. These will create documents in their respective native formats, but can be exported in Word or Excel (among others) as needed. They will also import from those formats (with limitations)
MS has published Word and Excel fort the iPad, but in order to create of edit files, you need an Office 365 subscription ($99 USD per year, I believe)
There are a number of other apps available in the apps store that will also accomplish this for you.
Just be aware that regardless of the apps chosen, there will be limitations compared to Word and Exel for PC (I don't know of any app for iOs that can handle pivot tables, for example)

Yes, several options, including syncing via itunes. However, you may fiond using a cloud service is more convenient. What you chose will depend on teh editing apps you use.I use DropBox and Box externsively, as well as iCloud (if you opt for Apple's apps). Skydrive would be your best option if you use MS apps.

How do I get a refund? I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails.. I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe.

How do I get a refund? I have tried to use this converter to change a PDF to a word document or excel document three of four times and it always fails.. I want my money back but don't see any way to communicate with Adobe. i really just want my money back. Very disappointed. Also disappointed that it is so hard to find a way to communicate with Adobe that I have to resort to asking this question in this forum.

You need to use the CHAT link in support to reach Adobe staff. Be sure you know the product name you are trying to cancel, Adobe have lots of products, several converters etc. I think it is ExportPDF you have, most likely.

I got this message when trying to use Excel 2003. I went to Microsoft's web site's community and entered the error message that you got. There was a solution offered that worked for me although I cannot remember now what it was. You might also try Microsoft's knowledge base for any possible answers for this problem. IMHO, I believe this is an Office 2003 problem and not an Acrobat problem.
I usually find the answers to problems such as these on Microsoft's web site. Good luck.

What are the best programs for word processing and excel for the iPad

Was planning to use my iPad for word processing and excel work, what programs are best that would be compatible with Word documents I have on a Wi-Fi drive.

Data from word tables to excel master spreadsheet

Hello, I'm looking to take data from my damage report forms that come in maybe 20 times a week. This data needs to goto a master excel spreadsheet. I've managed to find a macro that does this but it does not paste it into excel the way I require and also
extracts data I do not require.
The word document contains a column of headings on the left, these will be the master spreadsheet sheet column headers. These will be on the spreadsheet already so I don't need them copied.
The other two columns contains the data I will need to xfer to excel. I was thinking bookmarks can help here but I'm unsure if these will save over from the original template?
So, if there is some code out there that can help, brilliant. It will be an excel macro in the master spreadshee. TThat takestthe datadfrom the active word doc or by selecting the word doc in its folder.
Fingers crossed.
Joseph

Hi Joseph,
You should be able to run below code to get the data out of the Tabel(s) of a Word Document from within Excel.
You can modify the code accordingly to your needs to specify the range where you want the data to be copied.
I have already slightly modified the code to skip the header information.
Sub ImportWordTable()
Dim wdDoc As Object
Dim wdFileName As Variant
Dim TableNo As Integer 'table number in Word
Dim iRow As Long 'row index in Excel
Dim iCol As Integer 'column index in Excel
wdFileName = Application.GetOpenFilename("Word files (*.docx),*.docx", , _
"Browse for file containing table to be imported")
If wdFileName = False Then Exit Sub '(user cancelled import file browser)
Set wdDoc = GetObject(wdFileName) 'open Word file
With wdDoc
TableNo = wdDoc.tables.Count
If TableNo = 0 Then
MsgBox "This document contains no tables", _
vbExclamation, "Import Word Table"
ElseIf TableNo > 1 Then
TableNo = InputBox("This Word document contains " & TableNo & " tables." & vbCrLf & _
"Enter table number of table to import", "Import Word Table", "1")
End If
With .tables(TableNo)
'copy cell contents from Word table cells to Excel cells
' start with row 2 to skip headers
For iRow = 2 To .Rows.Count
For iCol = 1 To .Columns.Count
' Define starting point here
Cells(iRow - 1, iCol) = WorksheetFunction.Clean(.cell(iRow, iCol).Range.Text)
Next iCol
Next iRow
End With
End With
Set wdDoc = Nothing
End Sub

Taskbar Jumplist anomalies for Word 2010 and Excel 2010

I am having problems with missing jumplists for Office 2010 products (Word and Excel) pinned on the Windows 7 taskbar, **BUT** have no problems with jumplists for Notepad and IE pinned on the taskbar.
Observation 1: I just upgraded from Office 2010 Starter to full Office 2010 by getting a product key. Full Office 2010 was installed on my laptop when I purchased it but only Starter was licensed. Full Office 2010 was unusable until the upgrade. I suspect
the leapfrog from Starter to full Office 2010 might have a part in this jumplist issue.
Observation 2: I can see from a DOS prompt that the AutomaticDestinations and CustomDestinations folders exist under Recent. However, from Windows Explorer I cannot see the 2 folders under Recent. (That may be a clue…if other people CAN see the 2 folders
from Windows Explorer.)
Observation 3: In DOS, I can see that both directories have files ending in -ms. I can also see updates (new files with fresh timestamps) from opening Word and Excel files in those 2 directories. It’s almost like Word and Excel don’t understand to go look
in those 2 directories after the Office upgrade, even though Windows 7 (?) generates the -ms files for the jumplist function.
Observation 4: Again, no problems with Notepad and IE jumplists. I can remove the files from the AutomaticDestinations folder and cause Notepad to have no jumplist items, and then restore them and Notepad has jumplist contents again.
Observation 5: I had no problem using jumplists with Word Starter and Excel Starter. All references to Office/Word/Excel Starter are now gone from the Starter button and All Programs - sent to Recycle bin. I deleted the Word Starter
and Excel Starter entries when I upgraded, but I just deleted the Microsoft Office Starter (Englisgh) entry under All Programs today...I thought it was a benign entry and wouldn't hurt since I wasn't using it. Maybe there's some corruption in registry
as a result of the mixture. Interestingly, I can drag a file created in Word Starter to the taskbar and it will try to pin it to the Word Starter taskbar "ghost" that's in the Recycle bin.
Any clues anyone? I have no large files in the two destination folders, and have only about 20 files total in each folder...far fewer than the 999 threshhold mentioned in one of the updates for Office 2010.
Thank you!

I encountered exactly the same problem, and under exactly the same circumstances as the original poster (upgraded from Office Starter to Home and Business; jump lists worked fine in Starter, then stopped working for Excel and Word after upgrading).
Like the original poster, none of the various fixes found online corrected the problem, nor did re-installing Office.
I also tried what was suggested by Max Meng and created a new User Account. The problem occurred for the new account, just as it did with the old one.
After about 6 hours of fighting, I have finally solved the problem. The solution is not easy, fast or pretty.
What I did was uninstall Office (again) using the Control Panel. Then I ran a FixIt utility found here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 (method 2)
My hope was that this would do additional registry clean-up. I knew from earlier attempts that this alone would not fix the problem, though.
Despite uninstalling twice, there were still a lot of references left in the registry to "Word Starter" and "Excel Starter". Likewise, there were still references to "WINWORDC.EXE" and "EXCELC.EXE", which are the starter versions of the executables.
So I went through the registry using RegEdit, and manually deleted every key which included those strings. The largest number of cases were file type definitions for various Word and Excel file extensions. When in doubt, I deleted entire tag
hierarchies for Word and Office file types, figuring that they would be restored when I reinstalled Office. In the process, I removed pretty much every reference to Word or Excel that I could find in the registry.
I also deleted any directory on my hard drive (in c:\Program Files(x86), c:\Program Data, and c:\Users\<name>\AppData which appeared to be related to Office.
Having done this, I reinstalled again, and the jump lists for Word and Excel now work.
In debugging the problem, I found that .automaticDestination-ms files (which contain the data behind the jump lists) were not being created when I opened Word or Excel documents; they *were* being created when I manually pinned individual files to the
taskbar, however.
I suspect that this might be due to the long hexadecimal filename being based on a hash of the application name, or what the system thinks is the application name based on the file type. Removing the references to "Word Starter" and "Excel Starter",
and the corresponding WINWORDC.EXE and EXCELC.EXE in the registry might have cleared up this problem.
Obviously this fix is potentially risky, and should only be attempted if you are comfortable editing the registry. Making a full system backup beforehand would be a wise precaution. For this specific case, however (broken jump lists after
upgrading from Starter to full Office) it would appear the only alternative is a clean install of Windows (to wipe the registry completely).

My computer had to be restored at the apple store. When they did it my Microsoft word, powerpoint, and excel were all deleted! How can I get them back? Who do I talk to, Apple or Microsoft?

Select Text Word by Word (Instead of by letter)

Peace all!
I was fiddling with some Win coms and noticed that they selected words differently. I.e by word instead of by letter in linux. Is it possible to change this?
Also stumbled upon the following tip for macos, which allows u to toggle between selecting word by word or even paragraph by paragraph. Wonder if this is possible in linux...
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php? … 8130522201
Thanks in advance!

Wosh this was... Well, yes all is possible. But there's so many ways to go in Linux i can't possible point a particular way to do this in linux.
First of is ms word a WYSIWYG editor for text documents. And the "linux" equivalent must be openbox(abiword is also similar, but doesn't have all the same neat features if i understood i correctly) And well then you have to look into the openbox manual or tutorials of some sort.
I on the other hand belive than (g)Vim is allot better, and if i wanna do articles and the alike i use the latex-suit with Vim as an editor. In Vim you can configure abnormally much and you can do what you wondered about and a thousands other things. Altough it has a steep learning curve (and so do latex compared with msword and openbox) i recommend to atleast try it by installing it and type "vimtutor" in the terminal.
And another tip is to recognize that this is a question about software, not "in Linux" Linux is just the OS. In order to edit text you need a text editor. Altough a OS like Windows and a distro like Ubuntu might make you think that graphical text editors are part of the OS "Windows" And "Linux" and can be referred as such, but they cannot.
Good luck in your search.

Does 'versions' work with microsoft word, ppt and excel or just pages, keynote and numbers?

Does 'versions' work with microsoft word, ppt and excel or just pages, keynote and numbers? I tried to do what the videos say but the little icon for versions is not there on word. Does this mean it only works for pages etc... or do i have to activate it somehow? If it is only for pages then this ***** and should be better advertised!!!

Each application will need to be updated to work with Versions, Full Screen, and other Lion-specific features.

Why iCloud only allows store documents created by Pages, Numbers or Key Note ? How can I "iCloud" documents created with Word Mac or Excel mac??

iwork for ios accepts for upload and also happily opens all your Microsoft office files, from Office97 standard doc/xls/ppt to the 2011 versions of docx,xlsx,pptx and various other of these format extensions.
Notice : the upload feature in www.icloud.com is only active if you in fact own these apps on your iPhone/Pad/pod. it is not a feature of iWork for the Mac ( iwork09 ) which itself is not icloud capable at all.

Spotlight can't find a word in an Excel document?

I'm sure someone has addressed this before, but I'm not sure which search words to even begin to try looking for my answer, so I'm just posting fresh. Apologies if this comes up day in and day out on here!
Basically, there are several files that I KNOW contain certain words in them, but they remain unseen by Searchlight. I've had my volumes all re-indexed, but still no luck.
Is it my misunderstanding that Searchlight should be able to find, for example, an Excel document with a particular word in it (not in the filename, but a word IN the Excel doc)? I thought that was the glory of Searchlight as compared to regular ol' Search.
Anyone?

Thanks for the link. The case mentioned there is quite similar to mine, with the difference that opening a Word document and selecting a word won't make it visible for Spotlight (unlike the poster's case).
I tried what you suggested and here's what happened:
1-Chose the unique word "Splitz" and Spotlighted it. Nothing came up.
2-Created new Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Pages, and Keynote documents; typed the word "Splitz" at the beginning of each document, and didn't input any more information that the unique word.
3-Saved all documents under the title "Haravatska" (another unique word) and even made sure their extensions were visible.
4-Spotlighted the unique title "Haravatska": all documents with that title were found.
5-Spotlighted the unique word "Splitz": no results.
6-Opened the Word document titled "Haravatska" with the unique word "Splitz" in it, saved it as a .txt file under the same title. Closed it.
7-Spotlighted the unique word "Splitz" again: this time only the .txt text file was found.
Perhaps you could look at the following link:

610a8781a8%23a2425e610a8781a8
As you can see your issue may not be new. I do know
and thus never really felt concern, that the
Spotlight technology defined limitations to ensure
that it didn't create indexing issues re storage and
speed that would be excessively slow or massive.
As for your problem, it doesn't appear to be common.
I do know that placing a specific word in a Word or
Excel will only work if it is positioned up front,
perhaps before the 100kb mark when Spotlight stops
reading the file.
However, having said that, am I to assume that if you
open a new document in Word, type in the unique word,
and save the file to the same drive, that the
filename does not Spotlight list the file name?
