Word updated to 2003 - now problems

My colleague's version of Word was just updated to 2003;
however, he is using the same PC, same operating system, and same
RoboHelp Office (X.0.2) as previously (he uses both RoboHTML and
RoboHelp for Word). He is getting multiple Word error messages
(e.g., "Word has encountered a problem...", "Do you want to start
in safe mode?", etc.)
I recall Peter advising that when initially installing Word
and RoboHelp, a person needs to install Word FIRST, and then
install RoboHelp after Word. But what about in this case -- when
Word had been on the PC but was just UPDATED to 2003 -- would a
person need to de- and reinsall RoboHelp in this instance?
Note: My colleague also attempted downloading the Word 2003
patch but ran into problems with that too.
Thanks much for your insights and help!

"Just" updated. That's a big change so uninstall RH and
reinstall it.

    I HAVE RESOLVED THIS!!  The problem was that I was signed in to iCloud on my iphone with an old Apple ID and using a different Apple ID on my pc. I signed out of iCloud on my phone, then re-signed in with the same id as the iCloud on my pc. Presto chango. All is well.

  • I updated to Yosemite, now my laptop keyboard does not work in MS Word for Mac. Help!

    I updated to Yosemite, now my laptop keyboard does not work in MS Word for Mac. Help! Any suggestions for fixing this?

    Did you ever get a solution to your problem? Because I am having the same problem. I was actually in the middle of using Word when the keyboard stopped working. But it works in other apps, including in Excel.
    Thing is that my laptop just got back from Apple for repairs and they replaced everything but the display - including the hard drive.
    So not only do I have plenty of hard drive space, but it should be virus and error free otherwise.
    I have only installed a few programs and redownloaded some of my files from places like Dropbox, but otherwise is essentially a new system.
    Oh - and it came with Yosemite, so I did not upgrade to Yosemite and still Word doesn't work.
    I've always had trouble getting Word to play nice with my Mac but that was also with the old, full hard drive.
    This is a fresh install. And since I lost all my files, I only had like 1 old file I have downloaded from email and accessed and was in the process of
    creating a new file when it crashed. I got no error, the keyboard just stopped working (to type). I also cannot even get Word > Preferences to even open,
    so it is completely unresponsive.
    I did a Google search and under the Microsoft communities two suggestions to that person were that there may be multiple copies installed -
    I have only the one - and that one is in the wrong place - again, I only have the one and it installed to the Hard drive (visible in Launchpad / Apps).
    Another suggestion was that there was some problem with the updates. I ran updates and they installed fine. That helper suggested that the user
    may have had different updates that worked for the other Office apps (Excel, PPT etc.) but not Word and that was at least part, if not all of his problem,
    but all my Office apps show the same update version 12.3.6, so that cannot be the issue with me.
    I've not yet tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but as I got no errors on the original install or updates, I'm not sure if that would fix it.
    I've found that Mac just doesn't play nice with some programs at all.
    And even though I have a factory installed version of Yosemite on a new, fresh hard drive, even when I booted up, my iPhoto app (which is empty) crashed. I am not sure if my iPhone or iPad was charging at the time, but I don't think so. iPhoto that I still have not even used has crashed several more times since, most notably when plugging in my iPhone / iPad to charge, namely when I declined to upload photos (by default) to DropBox. That may not be related at all, but thus far seems the only other problem I have encountered until this Word problem.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro, Sept. 2009, running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 factory installed from Apple repairs running Office: 2008 for Mac (Home and Student edition).
    Please advise if you found a resolution and what it was.
    Thanks

  • Updated to Yosemite, no problem.  now iPhoto and iMovie won't open.  Says I need to update software however, when i try to update indicates my User ID and PW won't work for these two pieces of software.  User ID and PW works everywhere else.

    I am having the same problem.  I even changed my password and updated all of my security information.  Now it just gives me an error and retry message, which of course also does not work.  Went to support and was going to open a chat (seemed the simpler option) and received a message that my support has expired for this serial number unless I want to pay $29.00.  So I chose the option to call later, which was the exact time suck I was trying to avoid.  Why wouldn't the new operating system also update the apps that were already part of my old platform?

  • Steve Jobs obviously was "the man" because every update or install now gives me problems... i can no longer download anything to my iphone.. giving me errors of "cannot install at this time" and i get an error installing itunes on my other laptop... wth?!

    Steve Jobs obviously was "the man" because every update or install now gives me problems... i can no longer download anything to my iphone.. giving me errors of "cannot install at this time" and i get an error installing itunes on my other laptop... wth is going on!??!
    ok so the download problem with my iphone.. what could be the cause of that? ive restarted and deleted the "undownloaded app" over 10 times already. and restarted the iphone 10 times... next thing i know i cant install itunes on my laptop.... geez man..
    obviously there is a fix which someone will help... but why should i have to go through all that crap to install a so called uncomplicated software... when you think about it this really shouldnt even be an issue.
    normally if the thing dosent work. normally with most programs you just uninstall the uncompleted software and just reinstall and everything is usually good to go.. help!

    ive never had any problems with ap[ple products in the past... this is a first and a stupid problem if you ask me

  • I did not update in time, now I have problems and I cannot seem to update ical.

    I did not update in time, now I have problems and I cannot seem to update ical. Can someone help guide me?

    Apple said to update ical. I guess I waited too long because my calendars and all my events disappeared. I tried syncing with my iPhone and it deleted my calendars off my iPhone. Double clicking on a calendar invite does not work either, it won't open or populate my ical. I requested an update through Mobileme to get ical working again and nothing..... It does not appear to want to update or start working again. Is this an issue with Apple ical in general?

  • Microsoft Word 2011 will not open.  I have updated it.  Now Excel and Outlook open, Word still will not.  Can you help?

    Hard drive very recently restored.
    Version 10.7.5
    Word updated to 14.4.4
    I updated, I restarted, I tested everything and everything opens except Word. 

    Hi, Becca,
    Your MS Office 2011 may have become corrupted.  Reinstalling Office 2011 can address problems that you may be experiencing.
    The current version of Office 2011 is 14.4.8. You might try reinstalling MS Office 2011
    First - find your Office 2011 install disc with the product key # - and only then remove Office according to MS instructions
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768
    Or go here to DianefromOregon's site for help removing Office 2011:
    http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
    Then Reinstall from DVD
    Then enter your Product #
    After successfully reinstalling Office 2011,  update your Office product using the Software update within Office called Microsoft Update or going to the Help menu within Word or Excel or PowerPoint and select Update.
    It may take a few times before you get to final upgrade to current Office version.
    It should be 14.4.8 as of current date.

  • I did the 5.1.1 update over wifi, had update issues, then updated on Itunes no problem, now my phone continues to freeze and restart, any suggestions on how to correct this

    I did the 5.1.1 update over wifi, had update issues, then updated on Itunes no problem, now my phone continues to freeze and restart, any suggestions on how to correct this - thank you

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Has any of this been tried?

  • We bought a time capsule then the wifi has a problem since it does not identify the existing wireless network and it says that its need to have an update firmware. The existing firmware is 7.3.1, does it have an newest update firmware existing now?

    We bought a time capsule, 1TB, then the wifi has a problem since it does not identify the existing wireless network and it says that its need to have an update firmware. The existing firmware is 7.3.1, does it have an newest update firmware existing now? Does APPLE do not provide latest firmware for this item?

    How old is that Time Capsule?  The fact that it still have firmware 7.3.1 suggests that it's not the latest model.  The latest firmware available for my two-year-old model is version 7.5.2.  Apple does provide firmware updates.  You just have to let the Time Capsule download and install them.  Use AirPort Utility to do that.
    Regarding your Wi-Fi problem, please explain what you mean by "it does not identify the existing wireless network".

  • Installed 3.4.1 update but Lr now doesn't recognise my images

    installed 3.4.1 update but Lr now doesn't recognise my images,
    Installed it last night but my images now are blank with question marks on them.
    Anybody else have this problem, or any ideas on how to fix it ?
    Images are still all on my harddrive
    Abit worried
    Neil

    Your observations are not quite correct:
    It is as follows:
    a) Question mark on the frame of the thumbnail: When you hover over the "?" the words "Photo is missing" appear; when you left-click the "?" you will get the menu <Locate>. Select <Locate> and navigate to the location of the photo. If the name of the photo has been changed outside of LR, you will also get the "Missing photo" message / question mark and when you <Locate> and navigate to the renamed photo you will be asked to verify that this is the correct file.
    b) Question mark besides the folder name: Indicates that this folder is missing. Right-click the folder name and the menu <Find Missing Folder> appears.
    Navigate to the location of the folder. If a parent-folder and the sub-folders have the question mark besides them, you only need to find the location of the parent-folder and the sub-floders will also be found by LR - provided that the folder names have not changed.
    Missing Image / Folder: Does not necessarily mean that the image / folder is not on the hard drive. It means that LR cannot find this image / folder.
    Among several reasons, the main reason is that image files or folders have been renamed or moved in Finder / Win Explorer. Since LR has the files and folders in the catalog under the old name, it gives you now a "missing" message.
    You also get the "missing" message when an external hard drive has been disconnected from the computer.
