Word Starter access problem

After installing Adobe Reader XI, I can no longer open document files that were generated in Word Starter and Excel Starter. What can I do?

When I try to open my files via SyncUp, a message comes up that says I do not have the software needed to open the file. It then asks if I want to purchase Microsoft Word. This did not happen before I installed Adobe XI. Interestingly enough, the icons used to be the Word icon--blue with a W. The icons are now orange with no letters/writing,.
I can, however, go into the Microsoft Word Starter program and open the file. But this is not optimum because this is simply a laundry list of every word document I have.

Microsoft Word Starter 2010 problem

When I am trying to open Microsoft Word Starter 2010 it appears as if it has frozen, then it responds as if it is going to open (it shows 'processing') then it says "Microsoft Word Starter 2010 cannot be opened. Try again or repair the product in
control panel." What is happening? What do I do?

Fix many web access problems with IFS 9.0.1 on Solaris (and other OS's)...

When the installation is done according to the documentation,
web access does not work because the scripts that add entries to
the jserv.properties file add duplicate references to
wrapper.env and wrapper.classpath. Look at the jserv.properties
file below and look at the remarked-out (#) lines of the
duplicate references. For example, look at the references to the
wrapper.env=LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Oracle, please note this bug so the web access problems are
minimized when the product is intstalled.
Thank you,

maxsize),# the log message stating that fact is generated and the log

Mac Mini Start Up problem?

I am having a start up problem with my powerpc mac mini which runs on max os x 10.4.11. About a week ago there was one day where it would not power on at all so I waited a day and it turned on again and was fine again. However today, when I connected a new WD hard drive to back-up my files, the computer froze. I assumed that was normal since this has happened every now again, I guess its because it doesn't have a lot of RAM. So i had to turn it off by holding down the power button at the back. I removed the hard drive then turned the mac mini on again but now all I see is a flashing folder which alternates between something that looks like finder and a question mark. Basically the folder looks like this: http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-desktops/164988-folder-flashes-question-m ark.html
According to those people, it means that the mac mini doesn't have an operating system installed but that is impossible for me since i've been using this mac mini for 7 years. I've tried starting up in safe mode but that won't work. When I try to start up using the start up menu, I see no hard drive icon to select. All i see in this menu is an arrow that resembles the "undo" arrow in word and an arrow pointing to the right. I haven't tried re-installing the software that came with the mac since that might (or will) erase all my files.
So any ideas on what could be wrong? Has my mac mini given out because it's old? Is there something wrong with the hard drive? Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hello Jay,
The drive is either dead, dying, or having severe problems.
See if Disk Utility sees it at all.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

I upgraded to mountain lion a week ago and now on startup of my macbook pro, microsoft excel and word start up automatically and then crash? very strange can anyone please help? I have checked the login items under users and groups and there is nothing.

Are you using the Office for Mac 2011 version, as you need to do? The Office for Mac 2004 is Not at all compatible with Mountain Lion, and the 2008 version has been noted to have some problems running with ML.
Hope this helps

MS Word Starter 2010 continually asks for product key yet keeps closing.

When I try to open the free pre-installed MS Word Starter on my PC I am prompted to enter my 25 character product key. After doing this a I receive ‘Your product key is valid’ on pressing the ‘Continue’ button MS starter opens yet three seconds later the
same box appears prompting me to enter my product key again. On entering the product key again I receive a further confirmation my key is valid. On pressing ‘Continue’ the box closes yet so does MS Starter 2010.
It used to work when the PC was new.
I have run ‘Repair’ MS Starter and ‘Repair’ MS Office 2010
The same happens with MS Exel starter.
I use MS Word 2010 day to day which works fine.

Hi George.
George.
No I probably did not uninstall it from the old computer and that machine
was scrapped some years back.
Just to recap, I use Word 2010 and Excel 2010 every day and they work OK.
As I understand it these programmes, Excel & Word 2010, is what I got from
downloading the MS Student & Teachers discs?
So in my limited understanding, as they both work OK, I don't appear to have
a problem with the license being used twice. Do I understand that
correctly?
My problem is that on the rare occasions I decide to dip into the MS
Starter Programmes, a window appears asking for a product key. When I enter the
key for the MS Student and Teachers disc it says its valid, Word Starter opens,
the box asking for the product key appears again and when entered both windows
close. I don't quite understand why It asks for a product key for something
factory pre-loaded?

Now, looking at the source document library, this document has the field in question set to String, so why has it been marked as a Time filed type in the expiort file?
Is anyone aware of any issues with the Export-SPWeb commandlet?
SharePoint 2013 + March PU + AUG 2013 CU.
Any help appreciated.

Hi Richard,
According to your description, the error occurred when you ran the Export-SPWeb command.
I recommend to verify the things below for troubleshooting:
Save the document library as an template(include content) and create a new document library based on the template, then run the Export-SPWeb command to export the new document library to see if the issue still occurs.
Did this issue occur with other document library? If not, you can delete the string field with error, then run the Export-SPWeb command to narrow the issue scope.
As a workaround, you can save the library as a template and deploy it to the site collection where you want to move the library, then create the new library in the site collection.
Best regards.
Thanks

New MB Pro; start-up problems (again)

In case you remember me, yes I am the same person who recently bought a MB Air and had lots of problems off the bat (some of which required repair by Apple). It is working fine now, but it was just not working out for my needs. So, I decided to suck it up, switch to the Pro and sell that Air.
Now the PRO is giving me start-up problems. Gah! I made a fresh Time Machine back-up from the Air...then used Time Machine upon initial set-up to transfer everything to my Pro (thinking I was wiser this time, doing it upon initial set-up). But...no go. First my Pro would not recognize my admin password and I had to reset that. Now that I'm into my system, iPhoto will not open (I get a window vaguely stating there is some problem that it then reports to Apple); Calendar and Notes just show big question marks in the dock.
I opened a new user account to see what would happen: in that account, Notes and calendar seem just fine, but iPhoto still will not open.
Furthermore, in my support research I keep coming across stuff that talks about the install disk....But never saw one! Am I supposed to have one, or are the new Pros like the Air (in having online reboot sytem)? I did not see any disks in my box (which of course is currently not where I can access it to double check). The only place the disk could have been is underneath the frame inside the box, but there is usually nothing under there, so I don't think I had one. Could this be right?
Other possibly useful (?) info: I bought the Pro w an 8GB RAM upgrade, which was installed right in store. When I opened a new user account I got a window talking about "automatic login" and how the computer would start to an account that was named after the store where I bought the computer if i did not turn it off. I did turn it off but I would like to get rid of this "store account"...but is not listed as a User acct so I don't know how to find it in order to get rid of it.
Help?!

Thanks for the input. I totally agree that I'd like to take this one back and exchange for a new one. Only problem is that I am traveling for work internationally until after the 14-day deadline. It's quite a hassle to get back to the US in time, though I have it in my back pocket to push for an extention to that time period...
Meanwhile, I had my 3rd Apple Support chat today. They finally gave me a dedicated Sr. Advisor who managed to get the Lion erase and install to take this time. (I didn't pay for the Mountain Lion upgrade; one thing having gone right!) I have to get green-lighted for another free Mountian Lion upgrade but at least we're on track at this point. Fingers crossed it continues that way!
At the rate they're going with me this summer, I should think a discounted AppleCare is in order or SOMETHING. Gah!
For any future problem-having readers, I'm afriad they did not seem to understand/answer why this was happening, so I've no wisdom to impart!
For the responders: Thanks again!

RE: Database (SQL-SERVER) access problem

Have you used NT Control Panel/ ODBC to set up the ODBC data source name?
You have to define the data source (database) SecTrade as well as the
driver to be used (SQL Server). This can be done by selecting the Add
button on the Data Sources screen in Control Panel/ ODBC.
Hope this helps.

Hi Forte-Users,
We have a setup a Sql-Server database on a NT server. In the Forte
EConsole,
we have
setup a ODBC-type Resource for this server, named SERVER2_ODBC. This NT
server
is configured as a Client Node in the active Forte environment. Note
that
Server2 is not
the Forte server, but has Forte installed. There is another NT server
which
acts as the
Forte server. NODEMGR and Sql-Server are running on SERVER2.
In our application, we have a DBSession SO with the database source
as SERVER2_ODBC, Userid=ForteInstructor. When running the application,
Forte
throws an exception, the gist of it being as follows:
USER ERROR: (This error was converted)
Failed to connect to database: SecTrade, username: ForteInstructor.
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no
default
driver specified
We have tried
1) Installing ODBC drivers on the NT server (Server2)
2) Accessing local databases from Forte clients which works fine
3) Accessing the Sql-Server database through Isqlw (Sql-Server Client
s/w) -
It works.
Could someone suggest what we should try to get rid of this problem?
Thanks for any help,
Kishore Puvvada

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.

Microsoft Word Starter to PDF - Font spaces change

I've been applying for jobs, so for each company I apply for I've been making adjustments to my cover letter in Microsoft Word Starter and coverting them to a pdf.
After it converts the spaces in the words shrink, and the spaces between words grows. It makes it harder to read and looks messy. Some days I find this happends, other days it doesn't and I can't figure out why. The image below shows and Old copy of when it coverted correctly. The New version is my problem.
Anyone know how to fix this?

It looks like a kerning issue. My suggestion would be to highlight your text, copy it, delete it, and then paste special - unformatted text. It might work. It's worth a try.

Repair of Word Starter 2010

I was not able to open MS word or MS excel and I was asked to repair Word Start 2010 in the control panel. I went to the control panel, click on MS Office Word Starter 2010 and right click "change". However, the repair did not start and I got
a message that I do not have internet connection. Internet connection is already on and I do not know why I get this error message (as I was able to access the internet- like now). THanks

Hi,
Please try to turn off Anti-virus scanner test if it helps.
If you have both Cable and Wireless, please set Cable connection as default.
If Word Starter 2010 or Excel Starter 2010 cannot be opened, uninstall and reinstall Microsoft Office Starter 2010:
Click Start (or Start > Run in
Windows XP).
Type appwiz.cpl, and then press Enter.
Before going any further, make sure you see Microsoft Office 2010 in
the list of installed programs. You'll need to use this program later to reinstall Office Starter 2010 on the computer.
Click Microsoft Office Starter 2010, and then click Uninstall (or Remove in
Windows XP).
Click Yes and follow the instructions
to uninstall Office Starter 2010.
To reinstall Office Starter 2010, click Start > All
Programs > Microsoft Office 2010.
Click Use.
And then click Open. This will re-install Office Starter 2010.
If the error continues to occur, you may have to do a full restore of the computer to reinstall Microsoft Office Starter 2010. We recommend you contact the computer manufacturer to talk about your options before you do this.

WRT54G Ver. 6 Wireless Access Problem

This router had been working but started having problems and dropping me off the internet via the wired connection to my ISP's modem. I disconnected the WRT54G and connected directly to the modem and everything worked okay. Based on Linksys troubleshooting web link I upgraded the firmware. After this I had to go back and setup the router again. It works fine now as a hardwired router but now I can't access the router thru its wireless capability with any of my computers or handhelds. It was working fine wirelessly before.
I've set everything up like it was with WEP passphrase, etc. I did change the passphrase and so the key is different, but I've changed this on the Palm and the Laptops to match.
When trying to access it from any of the devices I see it in the list, it will try and connect but and the message appears "Obtainaing IP address..." but it never gets it and the connection fails. This happens on my Palm, and two laptops.

Thanks for the assistance. I am using a Palm PDA and couldn't get it to work for the life of me. Ends up after checking with Linksys's live session (that really works great) I was convinced the problem was not the router. So I contacted Palm and through their live session I found out I needed to delete my old connection configuration and re-start from scratch creating a new one. Apparently the old setup configuration on a Palm PDA keeps some old data that was messing me up. It worked fine after re-adding the new logon configuration.
If anything I've learned quite abit about my router and my PDA.
thanks again...
