Workbooks created in excel office 2007 do not open with excel office 2003

Hi,
We have created workbooks using office 2007 and BEx 7.1 but they do not open with office 2007 (BEx 7.1, patch level 11). The error message is as mentioned ' workbook format .xlsm is supported only from office excel 2007 version'
Plz help.
Regards,
Saurabh Diwakar

Hi,
There is a workaround for this.
Save the workbook locally with ".xls" format in Excel 2007 and try to open with Excel 2003.Now it will open.
(Or)
There is one more option available in the Global Settings dialog where you can mention the "Use XLS File Format" under Default Workbook Tab.This is available from FEP8

OFFICE 2010 can not open EXCEL files by double click, only File Open....

Hi:
I am using WIN7 ultimate 64 bit and excel 2010 (office 2010 Pro plus).
I can not open any excel file(.xls and .xlsx) with a double click on the file. if I double click on the file, the application launches and excel starts, but no file is loaded and no error message, I have to manually go file open and select the file and
then it opens correctly...
I have tried every solutions I can find from internet, but none worked....
1.Repair the office 2010 instalation.------doesn't work.
2.Right-click the file >>Select "Open With" and select [Excel 2010]>> Check always use this program. ------doesn't work.
3.Options>>Advanced>>General section>>unchecked "Ignore Other Applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)".------doesn't work.
4.Run>> input "Excel /regserver". ------doesn't work.
5.Create new user profiles.------doesn't work.
6.Delete EXCEL folder under "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\".------doesn't work.
Is there any other solutions can fix this problem? Any help are appreciated.
Yong.

Hello Yong,
Thanks for posting in our forum. Seems you've already tried lots of things, and I can see that those are all steps that reportedly have worked for others.
Here is one more thing that you might want to have a try:
Open Registry Editor
Go to the registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.12\shell\Open\command
Highlight the key, select the (Default), select "Modify..."
from the pull-down menu and then enter the value below: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office 15\Root\Office15\EXCEL.EXE"
"%1" (include the quote marks)
Then OK your way out
Please have a try and feel free to post back.

Follow these instructions to uninstall MacKeeper. They have been tested with the most recent version of MacKeeper (v 2.8). Earlier versions than the one released in 2012 require more extensive work to uninstall all its components.
The effects of having actually used MacKeeper to do anything are a completely different matter. The fastest way to take an exquisitely designed and painstakingly engineered Mac and make it run like a steaming pile of dung is to install and use such ill-conceived "cleaning" or "security" products. This is just one example of a broad category of time- and money-wasters capable of causing damage that can only be rectified by reinstalling OS X, restoring from a backup, or completely erasing your system and rebuilding it from the ground up. Never install such junk on a Mac.
If you used MacKeeper to encrypt any files or folders, use MacKeeper to un-encrypt them first.
Quit the MacKeeper app if it is running.
Open your Applications folder: Using the Finder's Go menu, select Applications.
Drag the MacKeeper icon from your Applications folder (not the Dock) to the Trash.
You will be asked to authenticate (twice):
You do not need to provide a reason for uninstalling it:
Just click the Uninstall MacKeeper button. You will be asked to authenticate again.
After it uninstalls you may empty the Trash and restart your Mac. All that will remain is an inert log file that does nothing but occupy space on your hard disk.

I've been using IMac for 3 years with Microsoft office. Today, I could not open any excel files? Any Ideas?

I've been using IMac for 3 years with Microsoft office. Today, I could not open any excel files? Any Ideas?

If you upgraded to Lion or Mountain Lion, and did not upgrade to Office 2008 or later, that may be part of the problem. Try LibreOffice, OpenOffice, NeoOffice, Google Docs, or Zoho Docs. See my FAQ* for link: http://www.macmaps.com/crossplatform.html

Office Files Will Not Open If Located On A Network Folder

I have installed Office 2010 Professional on a Windows XP SP3 machine. This workstation is a domain member on a SBS 2003 network. My previous version of Office was 2003. When I attempt to open an Excel file that resides in the MyDocuments folder (which on
my SBS 2003 network is re-directed to my server) I get a message from Excel saying "Could not open" with the file name/location following. This happens on files that were originally created with Excel 2003 as well as files created with Excel 2010. I can save
a new file created with Excel 2010 to the network but am not able to open it back up again after closing it. If I go into Windows Explorer and move any Excel file to my C:\ drive I am able to open both 2003 and 2010 Excel files with no problem. This seems
to be related to where the file is located but the settings in Excel 2010 that I tried to adjust did not make it possible for me to open them when they were located on a network drive. What can I do to resolve this to allow me to open files on network (LAN)
drives?
After doing some more research I have discovered that when logging on with another User account on the same workstation I am able to open files normally with Excel 2010 that reside on the network. This user actually has less permissions than the problem
user account. I currently have just this one workstation with Office 2010 installed so I'm not able to test to see if it is related to the user profile on the workstation.
Any suggestions on where to look would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Chad,
I went through your reply and made the checks/changes that you suggested. So I changed the Reg setting for the Excel registry key and afterwards opened
Excel. Excel opened and I could see the Office splash screen but there was still no animation, just the still Office 2010 graphic with no animation. I checked the folder permissions for the affected user (Me) and they are as follows:
1.
My Username with all Permission Options Checked
2.
Administrators with all Permission Options Checked
3.
Creator Owner with all Permission Options Checked
4.
Domain Admins with all Permission Options Checked
5.
Folder Operators with all Permission Options Checked
6.
System with all Permission Options Checked
I also removed the add ins that were active. I'm still getting the same error message as well as the same error number. I also checked the processes that
run when other users are logged on compared to when I'm logged on thinking maybe something might be causing Office to not be able to see the share folders. Everything was the same for all users of the affected machine. I also logged on locally to the machine
and saved a file made in Office Excel to the My Documents folder (which isn't re-directed for local accounts) and was able to open the file again.
I have worked on the problem workstation most of the evening and just can't come up with a resolution. I appreciate the suggestions you gave Chad. Hopefully
we can find the cause! I'm ready to put this behind me and move on to actually getting to use the new applications!
Thanks,

MS Excel document as attachment to a PDF document does not open with a hot spot/link in the PDF

Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)
For .zip files use Archiver - same folder as above - or download TheArchiver - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Be Warned - Mavericks is not compatible with Microsoft Office 365!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I upgraded to Mavericks on 4 seperate computers, an 2 iMacs, MBPro and an MBAir and ALL four no longer connect to Microsoft Office 365 email accounts either with Office 2011 or the built in Mac apps. Apple support says "Microsoft knew for a year that Mavericks was coming out and it their job to make it compatible". I repsonded that their own Apps like Mail, Contacts and Calendar don't work either and they attempted to trouble shoot those apps only to no avail after 4 hours and a Mavericks reinstall. I have also tried an Office reinstall.
Right now I am no where, stuck between two companies who say it's the other guys fault......

Me again:
A colleagues more formal description of the problem:
We have had a major problem with people working directly off of the afp reshares with MS Word.
Word creates "Word Work Files" and usually is able to store them in either "Share/Temporary Items/uid/TemporaryItems/" or "Share/.TemporaryItems/folders.uid/TemporaryItems" as long as permissions are correct.
This works under 10.5.7 seed release 9J39 with direct attached storage, but with the Xsan reshared the word work files appear in the same folder as the opened document even though the permission for temporary items are correct.
This causes a number of issues, one being that if one user has a document open and another clears out the word work file then the open document cannot be saved.
Another issue that we have seen is where the word work file is created and then the original document disappears (although I think this may be another user housekeeping the word work files again).
We have tried to persuade users to work on local copies of the documents instead, but old habits die hard...

I just updated to Lion and my Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint will not open because PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I bought this software from Apple and the store installed it when I bought the MAC. What do I do?

Buy version 2011 of MS Office.
Or you can download OpenOffice, LibreOffice or NeoOffice, which all come very close to working with MS files just like MS Office does.
Or iWord, I have heard, you can purchase.

My office professional will not run with windows 8.1

my office professional will not run with windows 8.1 It ran fine on 7 and 8 but not 8.1

Microsoft Windows 8.1 officially supports all currently supported Microsoft Office versions including Office 2013 / 2010 / 2007 / 2003 , and may be even earlier versions unofficially. I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus on my Windows 8.1 and it runs fine with no issues. Could you try what has already been suggested by others including Big_Dave and reinstall Microsoft Office with complete reboot/restart between uninstall/new installation <restart, not shut down and start over>. If this doesn't work, please post again if installation went fine, what exactly is the error code (if any), what is the problem exactly, any screenshots ?

Office 10 will not work with icloud on any of my PC's.

My PC's were functioning properly with Office 2007 and icloud. I installed Office 10 with no apparent errors but it fails with contacts with a message indication that MAPI could not load aplzod.dll. I have reinstalled both icloud and Office 10 but the problem persists. Everything still works when I reinstall Office 2007.

Hello Lockjaw43. No Apple here. We're all fellow users.
Where did you get the idea Numbers has no Save As? In File menu just hold down the option key and you'll see it.
Calendar sync is different from Documents & Data. You might want to doublecheck that this is checked:
AND this is checked (after clicking options):
And on your iOS devices you also need to turn on sync in two places:
Settings > iCloud > Documents & Data > Numbers
Settings > Numbers > Use iCloud

Office 2011 will not open in OS 10.9 with main user -- works with new user. Suggestions??

Office 2011 will not open in Mavericks with main user -- works with new user. Suggestions??
I've tried removing Office 2011 completely and re-installing to no avail.

Unfortunately, my experience with Office is that somethoping will get corrupted in your account that prevents it from running. I have never figured out what exactly needs to be removed to make it work again.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion.

I want to go back to Snow Leopard 10.6 from Lion 10.7.2. Quicken 2007 is not compatible with Lion and I don't like Quicken Essentials 2012.

Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
1. Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.
