Mouse issues

I finally tried a trick that was post in November 2007 on your forum, funny that you never heard about it...
Simply set up your mouse "double click" somewhere between half speed and 3/4 speed. Everything is back to normal. Anyway, it worked for me. :grin:

Mac excel

Posted: 07 Apr 2008 08:33 PM PDT

Hi Paulina -

Re #! - if you're looking for an equivalent to Win Excel's F4 use Command+T,
otherwise just type the $.

Re #2 - It varies depending on the keyboard, but full size Mac keyboards
have 2 delete keys: the one labeled "delete" removes content & puts you into
Edit Mode, the one labeled "del" clears content only (and doesn't remove
formatting or Comments). On a laptop "delete" & fn+delete provide the same
respective operations. You can also use Control+B to Clear All, as well as
going through Tools> Customize Keyboard to assign your own keystrokes.

Ace - cheers!
 

Excel 2008 *nearly* gets it completely right. But there's certainly
some sort of MS-only trouble going on - cut'n'paste between Office
2003 apps failed in different ways depending on which app was source
and which was destination.

It'd be interesting to try this on a Tiger machine, but I don't have
any of those any more.
 

Will do, thanks.

Office 2004 update failure

Well 11.0 will not open your Entourage database. Since there was a database
format change shortly after Entourage was released, Entourage 11.0 cannot
open a database saved in later version. You will get this error:

"This Identity Cannot Be Opened With This Version of Entourage"
This message means, for example, that Entourage is at 11.0, but the saved
database was saved in a more updated version like 11.4.

The problem does not affect everyone, so no new installer will be
forthcoming.

It seems as if every update they throw in some security update. What if
anything they do, I have no clue.

Office 2008 Dock Icon Needed

Posted: 05 Apr 2008 06:11 AM PDT

Dalya,

Thanks for the tip to use the icon from the 2004 Project Gallery. I now
have it on the dock for the 2008 Microsoft Office folder. Looks better
than what i was using. Let me know if you find something better for
Office 2008.

Word 2008 crashing.

Posted: 04 Apr 2008 02:26 PM PDT

Did you look for older prefs/Normal as well?

However, in that case, you need to give more detail to get other than
the standard suggestions. When it is crashing? On launch, on quit,
when you do certain activities? What OS and type of machine? Create a
new user identity in OS X. Does it crash there? Did you add any updates
or install any other problems "yesterday" that might have helped trigger
this? Have you updated to Office 12.0.1?

Note that this is a user support group and in general, most people here
don't know how to read crash logs.

APA Style/References list

Posted: 04 Apr 2008 01:05 PM PDT

You can adjust the Bibliography to APA format by editing the Bibliography Style. Go to the Format Menu and click on Style. Click on Bibliography in the Style Box and then click on Modify. To set a hanging indent click on Paragraph in the drop down menu in the bottom left hand corner, then under indentation you can set a hanging indention by dropping down the Special Menu (I set it at .05 and it worked well). Also, in my program, they prefer that we single space the citation and double space in between, which I was able to do also! I hope this helps feel free to email if you would like some more help.

Office 2008 finds update is needed, but won't update...

Posted: 03 Apr 2008 03:10 PM PDT

> OK, so I called tech support and they had me uninstall Office entirely, delete old registries, and re-install office. That solved my problem. 

I too have been unable to install the March update to Office 2008. I think that Tech Support's solution you cite is too much work, and that Microsoft should fix the problem through making the update possible.

several simple questions

Posted: 03 Apr 2008 08:31 AM PDT

Although E'rage doesn't have an AutoText feature it does have AutoCorrect,
so depending on what you intend to use it for it may serve as a viable
alternative. there is probably a limit (perhaps 255 characters) but it can
be much more than the typical typo correction suggests.

Word crash when activating drawing toolbar

My only additional step was re-launching Word. All toolbars are working perfectly now.

PDF metadata

Posted: 01 Apr 2008 08:42 PM PDT

Sadly, the metadata in the generated file is both wrong and incomplete. The title isn't the title I assigned (it's been munged to have additional annotation about microsoft word), and the subject and keywords where were set in the word document properties remain blank in the generated pdf. Testing with word2004 (my other computer isn't handy) produces the same deranged result, with the additional (at least from memory) bit of damage that Author is set to "System Administrator" rather than the Author I'd set in the Document properties.

Nice tip about the extra report though.

Office document icons are showing differently than they should

Posted: 01 Apr 2008 06:42 PM PDT

All indications are that this is caused by either the OS X feature called
Cover Flow or Quick Look - not sure which, perhaps both. It's being looked
at by MacBU but nothing definitive as yet.
