Word Starter 2010 for MacBook Air 13"

Does Word Starter 2010 come with the MacBook Air 13"?

No. There is no version of Word included with a Mac purchase. Pages is free for Macs purchased after October 1, 2013. Having said that after trying to use it for over a year, I gave up and went with Open Office. Another free alternative that is very powerful and closer to Word in features is http://www.libreoffice.org

  • Word processing app for macbook air

    Whats the best app to get for essay writing for the Macbook air??
    I need something with a spell checker and word count facility and obviously
    user friendly when I upload the essay to submit electronically,
    Thanks

    Your Air has Apple Pages built in. That should work fine. Depending what format your electronic essay system requires, you may have to export to either Word or PDF, both of which Pages can do.
    Alternatively, Libreoffice (libreoffice.com) is free and has most of the features of Microsft Office. You can of course buy Office but that's the most expensive option.

  • Do all your cases and screen covers for MacBook air 2010-2011 fit the 2012 model

    Do all your cases and screen covers for MacBook air 2010-2011 fit the 2012 model

    Upon receiving my 2012 MBA, I removed the inCase hard shell from my 2011 model and fitted it to my 2012 unit. The fit is identical. Dimensionally they are the same.
    So, if you are asking do all of mine fit? Yes they do.

  • Word Starter 2010 not recognized when opening DOCX documents

    When I use Word Starter 2010 to create documents (as .docx) the documents do not recognize Word Starter as the originating application. It is necessary to open Word Starter and then open the .docx document from within Word Starter. I tried to associate
    Word Starter with the document type using the default program tab in the control panel, however default program does not find Word Starter application. Also having problem with Windows Live Mail where mail with .docx attachments are rejected as dangerous file
    types. Running System 7, current on updates - any suggestions??

    These problems were caused by a recent Windows update. Try repairing Office (via Programs & Features > Microsoft Office > Change in the Windows Control Panel).
    Cheers

    Thanks for your help!!!  Going into Control Panel and doing the repair seems to fixed the problem for me.  I realize that it is not your fault that it was broken.   However I have to ask, if Microsoft knew that their Windows update broke certain
    functions or features in Office, then why didn't Microsoft fix the problem rather than having a whole lot of pissed off users who don't understand why Office isn't working anymore?  It would have saved me 90 minutes of looking for solutions (or buying
    one of the "recommended" Office packages--maybe that is why MS is not fixing the problem they created). 
    Happy Holidays!

  • Microsoft Click to Run won't open Microsoft Word Starter 2010

    The error message says it cannot open Microsoft Word Starter 2010 to try again or to repair in Control Panel.  I have no idea how to repair it.  Any suggestions?
    I am running Windows 7 Home with an HP 2000 notebook pc.  64 bit Operating System.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the response - I'll keep a note of that forum for any future problems I may have.
    I've come up with my own workaround for the problem though.
    It seems that new documents I create on the Mac work just fine in Windows. So I simply created a blank document on the Mac, set up the document margins etc to match the edited document I was having trouble with and copied the entire contents over. Worked a treat. Must have been the way it was created in the first place.

  • HT201364 How do I free up space on on my start up disk--MacBook Air???

    How do I free up space on my start up disk--MacBook Air?
    Thanks

    Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
      1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
      2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
      3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
      4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
      5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
      6. See The Storage Display.
    You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
    You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
    Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.

  • What office program is best for macbook air 2013

    what office program is best for macbook air 2013

    To create some sanity here:
    If you are going to share files with family, friends, and coworkers Microsoft Office is the obvious and easy (though expensive) choice.
    If you are trying to save money and still remain compatible with friends LibreOffice is free and can read/write Microsoft Office files nearly perfectly.
    Another free choice is Apple's iWork suite (you'll have to download it from the App store because it isn't pre-installed) Numbers, Pages, and Keynote. These programs read Microsoft documents mostly accurately but not quite as well as LibreOffice and export to Office compatible documents. But neither LibreOffice nor iWork saves in Microsoft formats by default which means you must remember to export them. That can be a problem.
    In terms of ease of use I give iWork a slight edge over the other two. In terms of doing annoying things I don't expect, Office is the hands down winner.

  • Apple's Replacement Program for Macbook Air mid-2012

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to know more about apple's replacement program for Macbook Air mid-2012. I updated the said firmware and then my mac air stops working. However, according to the program, they are replacing it free of charge. I just went to an authorized service provider here in the Philippines and I just want to know if I will be paying any. I can't find good discussions in Google. Thanks.

    You should not, as the replacement program is worldwide. In case the reseller refuses to repair your Mac for free, print this website and take it with you

  • Firewire to usb adapter for macbook air

    Hello,
    Just purchased the latest version Macbook Air.  I'd like to transfer video from a Sony video camera w/mini DV tape, into iMovie '11 on the laptop.  Trouble is, I can't use my existing firewire cable as before on the iMac desktop.  There are prior discussions on the forum about this but none current.  Have there been any new developments in the firewire adapter arena for Macbook Air?  Thx.

    Sonnet Technologies is supposed to introduce a Thunderbolt-Firewire adapter called the Sonnet Allegro later this month. http://www.sonnettech.com
    "The Allegro™ FW800 Thunderbolt™ Adapter enables users to plug in a FireWire® 800 device, including a bus-powered drive, to any computer with a Thunderbolt port."

    Is Mac's firewall sufficient or is will an additional firewall help?  What security suite do you recomend for MacBook Air with Maverick?

    Third party security software is better at causing problems then it is at solving them.
    I recommend against them.
    If you felt it is necessary then configure the firwall software included with OS X.
