If it stopped, it might be because you got a corruption. Open the
dictionary in Word again, make a slight modification (add a space then
remove it) then save again.
In most cases it clears up the corruption.

Office 2004 for MAC suddenly can't launch

The fact that you are getting an Apple error indicates your problem is with
some file Office applications use at the system level.

Let's test in a new User first to eliminate your User's folder as part of
the problem. Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Accounts.
Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching. Test
Office there.

If the problem still exists, download and run the Apple combo updater to see
if that fixes the problem. If not, you might need to do an "Archive &
Install".

Mac OS X 10.5.6 Combo Update
(For both PowerPC- and Intel-based Macs )
<http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx1056combou
pdate.html>

Archive and Install

1) Insert the Mac OS X Install Disc and double-click the Install Mac OS X
icon.

2) Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select the
destination disk, select your current Mac OS X disk (in most cases, it will
be the only one available).

3) Click Options. If you want to save your existing files, users, and
network settings, select ³Archive and Install,² and then select ³Preserve
Users and Network Settings.² If you want to erase everything on your
computer and reinstall Mac OS X, select ³Erase and Install.² You can¹t
recover erased data.

4) Click Continue.

5) Click Customize to select which parts of Mac OS X you¹d like to install,
or click Install to perform a basic installation (recommended).


Once the install has finished, your system will be at whatever level the
disk you have is. So if your Install DVD/CD disk is 10.5.0, that's what
version of OS will be on your Mac. You will need to download the appropriate
Combo Updater from Apple's site to restore the system to a higher version.
After you run the combo, allow Software Update to download and install any
additional updates.

Getting cd copies of software

Posted: 04 May 2009 09:49 AM PDT

Further to what Diane replied: The purchase is an either/or situation. You
do not get both the download *and* the CD. If you want to go the d/l route
you'll need to burn the .dmg to your own CD for a backup - although I would
imagine that there is some provision for downloading again with proof of
license.

For further clarification on that as well as your other questions you really
should contact MS directly. Use the Contact Us link on the Mactopia site:

no sort in data merge

Not a problem - just providing information :-) But just to clarify, you
_multi-posted_ by separately posting the same issue. That term applies to
both submitting the same question more than once in the same group as well
as posting the same question to more than one group.

Cross-posting is submitting the question only once but addressing it to more
than one pertinent newsgroup. However, you can't do this through the web
interfaces such as the Mactopia Forums or Google Groups. You need to use a
newsreader & subscribe to the NNTP services. If you'd like more info on
using Entourage to subscribe to newsgroups this way have a look here:

No scroll bar in word document

Posted: 02 May 2009 10:24 AM PDT

Try Word>Preferences, View, and check the option that says "Vertical scroll
bar". Does that solve the problem?

Eligibility of Office v.X for upgrade to 2008

Do NOT delete Office X when you install as directed. You will most likely
need to have Entourage X open to manually move your data out. The import
from Entourage X Identities generally fails.

How to manually move your data. (when import fails and/or you need to move
to a new Identity same version or revert to an older version)

Once you get your data out, THEN you remove Office X.

Word crashes when opening documents created in Pages

Posted: 01 May 2009 02:01 PM PDT

The first question to answer is "Does Word crash when you try to open .doc
or .docx files that *weren't* created by Pages?" If it does that's one
thing. If not, you're looking in the wrong place :-)

There isn't much - if anything at all - that Word can do about files created
by other software. So if your problem stems only from Pages files you'll
need to get some help from Apple. Apparently Pages isn't doing a very good
job of mimicking the file format.

In a pinch you might try saving from Pages as .rtf to see if you have better
luck. Here are links to Apple Discussions & Support if you need them:
