I started working on a word document and went to save it and once I clicked save after finding the right location and renaming it and everything it said "Microsoft Word isn't working properly" and shut down the application. Luckily it recovers it but it did delete about a page of editing I did... Is there anyway to fix this?

replace font loses text

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 12:31 PM PDT

Different parts of a long document were prepared by people in different countries.

When <replace all> a font, sometimes the text that is in that font disappears rather than being there in the replacement font Tmes New Roman.
Is there some setting so I can just fix those parts that are not in Times New Roman?

Do documents automatically store in cloud?

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 09:32 AM PDT

I would like to work on documents in word and excel without them storing on the cloud? I am new to this and don't understand how the cloud works. I have the Microsoft that allows access to up to 5 computers. Can I work on something without it  going to the cloud? Does word just allow you to save it on the one computer without being accessed on the cloud or other computers?

Word 2013

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 08:59 AM PDT

I recently purchased Word 2013. But when I create and then save a new doc, it opens in Compatibility Mode, and Read-Only mode. Also it saves in Word 2007 format. How can I fix this?

I almost wonder if it has something to do with Open Office. I have been using OO for a couple years and just switched to using Word 2013. I don't want to uninstall OO b/c I'm afraid of losing all my docs if I do. Any suggestions?

word starter 2010

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 08:15 AM PDT

Is Microsoft no longer supporting word starter 2010. I am having trouble opening word documents using word starter 2010 although the program itself still works.
I have to download and save the file and then open it in the word starter 2010 program.

This happens when someone emails be a word document as an attachment.

thanks,

Track Changes deleting MS Word file

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 07:42 AM PDT

Hello,

I have been working on a doc in MS Word 2007 using Track Changes. Every time I saved the doc, I had no problems. But the last time I hit "Save," the doc seemed to get partially deleted, going down from 62 pages to 11. I'm positive that I did NOT make any finger slips.

What is odd is that the word counter on the bottom left of the screen displays the word count of my original 62-page doc. The page counter, however, says I have only 11 pages, and when I scroll down (the scrolling is choppy, by the way) or check the Print Preview image, only 11 pages show. The numbers don't match up.

When I run my mouse over the file icon on my Desktop, the properties bubble also shows a large KB value as well as a 62-page word count.

To make things even more confusing, the entire document is displayed ONLY when I switch my Track Changes setting specifically to "Final: Show Markup." But when I have the document in "Final" mode, it shows only 11 pages. I was working on the doc in "Final" mode, and it had showed 62 pages just fine up until I hit "Save" that last time.

I tried opening the doc in MS Word 2007 and in MS Word 2010. It's the same story. My computer did not crash, and it did not shut down on its own to install updates. I simply hit "Save" just like every other time, and this is what happened. 

Can someone PLEASE help me with this issue? This is a work project that is due in one day. I am grateful the doc still at least exists in "Final: Show Markup" mode. But this document display can be very difficult to read and follow, and if I can't recover the file in "Final" mode, I'm going to have to go through the edited file and create an entirely new document from scratch.

I sincerely thank you for your feedback.

I can't save word documents.

When I click save, a blank box appears. I'm using 2010

 

How do you automatically update text in multiple 2013 Word Documents?

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 07:25 AM PDT

Every two weeks, I have to go into 4 or 5 different Word Documents to change case files and clients' names. It would be really nice to be able to change only one Word Document and have the rest of the Word Documents change automatically so I can print the file. I use the same documents for each client and when all 5 documents are updated, I print them. Then, I clear the person's name and file numbers and I start the process all over again. Is there an easier way to do this so it won't take me all day?

Save as .pdf in Word 2013

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 06:52 AM PDT

When I save a .docx as a .pdf in Word 2013, I get the following message "Could not open file. No program is associated with this file type." The file is created, and has a default association with Adobe Reader in File Explorer (i.e. when I look at the file in its folder and double click it, it opens in Adobe Reader). Does anyone know how to tell Word to use Adobe Reader to open the newly created .pdf?

Serious Typing Lag in Word 2013, when there is a table in the document

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 05:39 AM PDT

This problem is specific for Word 2013 (never happened in the previous version) - if there is a table anywhere in a document, typing anywhere in that document get seriously lagged.

 

The Problem is more serious when I type in Chinese ("Quick" method, for example), which takes 5~15 seconds for a single word to appear.

 

Editing the documents from older versions or word, and new documents right from word 2013, produce the same problem.

 

We have Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 deployed in our environment, and the problem persist in both OS versions.

 

Hardware are, Dell Desktops, Lenovo Desktops, MacBook Pro running Win 7, and Acer Iconia 510 and 511, connected to 365 through either wifi , 3G, or Lan.

 

I have tried things like disabling hardware acceleration, disabling typing animations, but didn't help.

 

Any help will be very much appreciated, thanks :)

microsoft word 10

Posted: 15 Sep 2013 02:17 AM PDT

Have desktop Windows 7, purchased 18 months ago, it came with Microsoft Word 10.  All my documents are on this programme and now when I have opened a new file and sent it as an attachment, the file will not open but shows a window from Microsoft giving options, ie 1. I already purchased office 2010. 2. Go online to purchase etc.  When I click on I have already purchased it asks for a number - I do not have a number because as I said it was already on the computer when I bought it. I do not have Microsft Office, just the processor.  Cannot understand why after all this time it will not let me use it.  HELP!

Why Can't I use the letters in the product key input "a s z" ? Office 2013

Posted: 14 Sep 2013 10:21 PM PDT

I tryed to type my product key on Microsoft Word 2013 and when i typed A it didn't work. I have no idea how or what could have caused this but it might be a installation error, I had to take out my disc in the middle of it. I found out about S and Z when i typed other letters to test. I only have 6 days or so i have no idea what to do. The letters work fine in notepad. The keys don't work on other Office 2013 programs either , its just the product key only... Could my laptop be affecting it?

Changing the default from Word 2013 to Word 2010

Posted: 14 Sep 2013 10:19 PM PDT

I have Word 2013 and Word 2010 on my PC.  Word 2013 is currently the default program.  I have an application that does not support 2013 but will support 2010.

I need to be able to generate a document using 2010.  Is there a way to change which version of Word is the default?

Thank you.

Operation cancelled, contact your administrator

Posted: 14 Sep 2013 06:22 PM PDT

I've got the usual error message when opening a hyperlink in word - contact your network administrator. All the solutions I've found involve IE, which crashed my computer long ago and was removed. I have Safari, Firefox, and Chrome on here. I've tried setting each one to default, but still nothing. I'm running Microsoft Security Essentials. I use CCleaner also. Windows 7, (64) Microsoft Word 2010. Any suggestions? Thanks!

2013 version 365 Word doesn't read 2010 Word Starter files!

Posted: 14 Sep 2013 04:25 PM PDT

Just downloaded the trial version.  It is not reading...not even recognizing the existence of...my Word 2010 starter version files.  How come?
I created a 2010 version Word Starter file and filed it under a specific label.  I created a revised version in 2013 and filed it under the 2010 version label.  I cannot call up the 2013 version with my 2010 Word Starter program and can't find the 2010 version with the 365 program.  Where's the back integration?  It's like I have two parallel universes now.  This is the Craps!

Microsoft Word 2010 not responding on Windows 7

Posted: 14 Sep 2013 04:16 PM PDT

Hi there,

I have the Home and Student version of Office 2010. My mom bought it off the website, so I do not have a way to re-install it. Microsoft Word has been working for me until today when I tried to write up a new document. Whenever I try to change the font, change the proofing language, or print the document. The program will freeze up and stop responding. So far as I can tell, only these three things make it unresponsive. It opens up just fine, and if I don't change any of the settings then I can type, just not print out what I've written. This is only happening with Word; PowerPoint, Excel, and OneNote are unaffected.

Merge Question

Re:  MSWord

 

How can I merge a list of name, addresses, etc. without each one going on a separate page?  I want the list of names to stay on one page with one line space between them.

 

Thank you!
