KB 2553141 update - Office 2010 Starter- OS relevancy

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 02:51 PM PDT

Attempting to resolve a "Click 2 Run configuration Failure" error message given by the Click 2 Run Application Manager when attempting to open Word docs.  OEM installed Office Starter 2010 on Win 7 64bit SP1 OS. 

Does the KB2553141 update only apply to 32 bit OS ?  One of the thread links previously offered to me as a possible solution states to verify this update is installed.  I do not have this update installed.  However the author of that thread does not cite system specifics.   This update fixed his issue.  I do not want to add to mine by installing this update on a non compatible system.

 

Thanks.

 

When will Word web app get real-time, synchronous editing?

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 01:32 PM PDT

I'm glad to see that real-time co-authoring is now available in the Excel and PowerPoint web apps.  When will we see it in the Word web app?  I mean real-time, see instantly when the other person types, not this business where sections are locked, and you only see the changes after each party saves their document.

Word does not retain custom margins when files are saved.

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 09:59 AM PDT

Have repeatedly been required to reset margins in saved Word files.  It is very disturbing when file saving is not secure!  How can the custom set margins remain at the settings when saved?  Not only is Windows 8 an abomination, so is Word 2013!

Install Lync Web App Plug-in IE11 Problems

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 08:48 AM PDT

I am trying to install the Lync Web App Plug-in so I can join a video Lync Web App meeting.  I have run the installer several times, but I never get a new plug-in.  I have the Lync Browser Helper and the Lync Click-to-Call plug-ins because of my Office 2013 Pro 64 bit installation.  Will these take care of my needs?  Should I uninstall the 64x Office and install the 32x version?  Do I need IE10 and Windows 8?  I am on Windows 8.1 Preview and IE11 Preview.  I need the solution by August 21 - please help.


Sorry about posting this in the Word group, but Lync was not an option.  I figured that Word might have the most views.

Help! Proofing Tools not installed?

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 07:19 AM PDT

I run Office 2010 Home and Student under 64bit Win7 with Brazilian Portuguese proofing tools, all working fine.
Now I installed it on a machine running 64bit Win8, and cannot get the Portuguese proofing tools to work.
In the Word Options/language window it shows Portuguese(Brazil) enabled for keyboard, but in the Proofing(Spelling, Grammar...) column it shows "Not Installed".
Hovering on that button brings the message "The proofing tools for the language you selected are not installed on your computer. Click to install..."
Clicking the button leads to the website to download the installation file, with the option of downloading the 32bit or 64bit installer.
I have downloaded and installed this. The installation process claims to have been successful and says only need to restart Word or Office to use the tools. But after restarting Word and even restarting Windows and Word, the Portuguese proofing tools still do not work and the message in the options window continues the same.
Snooping around on the HD i find that the PT files have been installed alongside the English, Spanish and French files, but for some reason Office and Word are not loading/finding them.
What can be done to force Word to load the installed files?
Thanks,

compile error in hidden module MT insert functions

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 06:09 AM PDT

I have an Office 365 University program.  I am running an HP TS 15 Windows 8.  Whenever I open a Word document, I first get a message that the Macros are disabled, and then the above compile error messages comes up.  I haven't seen any explanation from MS regarding how to fix it. The Mr Fixit application says it doesn't apply to my computer.   Does anyone have any suggestions?

Blank page in word (2011 for mac) doc unable to delete.

Posted: 17 Aug 2013 05:51 AM PDT



 I have a 2-page document with columns, and then a 3rd blank page that I don't want. I am displaying non-printing characters and can see an extra para (page break?) starting on the blank page, but it won't delete. I have tried forward delete and highlighting it but it just pops back again. Unable to find answer to resolve is frustrating

Spelling CORRECTION Errors (Questioned/Potential) in MS Word Main Dictionary?

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 10:11 PM PDT

Personally, I don't often wish to match wits with Word spellchecker – it's served me well over many versions/years and it's darn good. Does a feedback page exist to provide one-stop verification for known spelling CORRECTION errors? I looked, but the Community here is the closest I could come.

 

The subject error would be rather important to any young applicant (dyslexic or otherwise) to a certain prestigious performing arts school. The Word 2000 (9.0.2812) Main dictionary definitely has "JULLIARD" as an improper name correction for the world-renowned institution.

 

I just checked Word 2010 (14.0.7015.1000) Main dictionary and it has both "JULLIARD" and the correct: "JUILLIARD" as spell-correction options. There is NO such species as "Julliard" – Google will even correct the name upon advancing to page two of search results.

 

I hope this helps... Do I win anything? A scholarship? ;-)

 

[P.S. Weird Al's lyrics to "Skipper Dan" helped to identify this issue.]

Cannot delete footnote lines from document

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 09:42 PM PDT

Hi all,

I have a very large document of around 170 pages with lots of footnotes. For some reason, there are grey lines that seem like footnote separator lines on some pages. I have tried following the advice on some pages regarding showing notes and deleting the lines but this does not work. Any ideas.

When creating a doc in 2010 starter, huge cursor doesn't match displayed font size

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 09:15 PM PDT

Has anyone had a problem with the displayed font size and the cursor not matching in Word 2010 starter? For example, it says I'm in Times New Roman 12, but the cursor is much bigger than that, and when I type something the letters are huge. Is there a way to fix this?

 

Thanks,

I have Word 2007 and up until now was able to save in DOC format in but now it doesn't come up as an option

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 07:42 PM PDT

I have always been able to save as a DOC or DOCX as well as TXT and WPS. But now there isn't an option for DOC or DOCX in the drop down box. How do I get this option back? Did I delete something by mistake?

How to draw semicircular (arch) with rectangular underneath in office 2010 (word)

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 07:34 PM PDT

Can someone kindly enlighten me how to do the above as my efforts were in vain. I was unable to delete some of unnecessary lines as my "edit shape" in ribbon (L hand corner) was un-bold with non functioning . It is office 2010 Pro.

Looking forward.

How do I accomplish this.

Word 2013 - Keeps Switching from "Simple Markup" to "All Markup" - EndNote?

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 04:05 PM PDT

I'm working on a journal article in Word 2013.  I'm tracking changes and using comments to communicate with my advisor.  In the Review panel, I select "Simple Markup" but whenever I leave the document alone for a few minutes (sometimes in only 1 minute) it switches to "All Markup."  This happens whether I'm still in Word and simply haven't typed or touched anything or if I've switched to a different program.

I've read this problem may be linked to the EndNote add-on I'm using, but no one mentioned any solution besides disabling EndNote.  I'd really rather not disable the EndNote add-on; it's the standard reference manager for my lab and worked great until we began tracking changes and making comments.

Is it possible the solution could be caused by something else?  If the problem definitely is EndNote, is there any way to fix it?

Double-sided or duplex printing with MS Word 2010 an Epson WP-4535 did work but now doesn't!

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 04:01 PM PDT

I'm not sure that the type of printer has anything to do with it, but even though I printed out quite a few double-sided copies of certain documents, when I went back to print out some more, there was nothing I could do to get them to print out double-sided.  

It seems there is generally a problem where MS Word 2010 suddenly stops printing out double-sided whereas it was fine before, as there are quite a few posts about it. 

I have spent a couple of hours reading through the posts, which cover different circumstances and printers, but currently am no nearer to a resolution.

I know from experience these kinds of things can take hours to find an answer on the web and I'm continuing in the search for the answer.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

When I say what prints out on the following that only means that shows up in the print preview:

After posting this I'm not sure it is solely a double-sided printer issue. The MS Word 2010 printer menu does not seem to recognise pages 1 and 2 which comprise the documents to print, so that if I tell it to print out 1-2 or 1,2 or all it prints out page 1 x 2, and when I tell it to print out page 2 it does prints out page 2, but no way can I print out pages 1 and 2.  This happens whether I try to print double-sided or not.

Thanks.

where does a saved document go when you hit control v without control c first

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 03:52 PM PDT

I accidentally hit control v before control c on a saved document. It looks like it just replaced it with another document. any ideas? 

Word documents vanished from file

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 03:49 PM PDT

I have a disk with a 2007 Word File on it containing several documents (about 50) in it.  I opened the disk in Windows 8 using Office 2013.  Created a document and added it to the file.  Saved it and removed the disk.  The next day I put in the disk and opened the file and several documents are missing.  My guess is about 15 docs are missing including the one I created the day before.
The ones missing were the ones most recently created or modified.  The oldest docs were still visible in the file.
Any ideas?

Drop Down Menus

Posted: 16 Aug 2013 02:42 PM PDT

I am trying to develop a lesson plan template on a Word 2007 document.  On it, I have placed a table with the categories I want for my lesson plan.  One of the table cells is "Common Core Standards" and I want to place a drop down menu there of standards from which i can select those pertinent to the particular plan.  In other words, if this is a lesson plan for writing, I want to put all the writing Common Core State Standards in a list, and once I select the 2 or 3 that pertain to this writing lesson, only those standards will show on my plan.  Help!
