| Posted: 03 May 2010 01:18 PM PDT Thanks. I know, but I am looking for a fix-all, so that double clicking any Office 2004 file opens it with the corresponding Office 2004 application (Word, Excel or PowerPoint). It should be possible with some macro or application or something else since it is indeed possible with single files using the Get Info menu, which means that the appropriate changes are made for such file for ever, so that it is open with the corresponding Office 2004 file always, for ever. Since it is possible for a single file, there should be way of doing it for all, with a single click. Thanks again. ------------------ On 2010-05-04 01:14:11 +0200, Diane Ross <com> said: |

| Office Mac 2008. Want to reformat computer &save Office, but lost the disk. Posted: 24 Apr 2010 08:58 AM PDT Diane Ross wrote: I recommend that before you reformat your hard drive that you take the following steps (you'll need a second hard drive with enough room connected by FireWire to do this): 1. Boot to your MacOSX install disk. Choose the language you want to use. 2. In the next screen, use the Utilities menu to launch Disk Utiltiy 3. Use Disk Utility to Verify the hard drive and use Repair if needed 4. Use Disk Utility to create a disc image of your computer onto the extra hard drive 6. Once you have created the disc image you can Disk Utility to erase your original hard drive (don't erase the one with your backup copy, of course) 7. Now quit Disk Utility and you can proceed with your install of MacOSX. Again, be sure you choose the correct disc so that you don't wipe out your backup. 8. When MacOSX is installed, it will boot up with the nice music, etc. One of the choices you'll be offered is to use a disc image to migrate to your fresh system install. That's what you want to do - or you can choose the option to not import anything and then use the Migration Assistant application in the Application > Utilities folder. -Jim -- Jim Gordon Mac MVP Co-author of Office 2008 for Mac All-in-One For Dummies http://tinyurl.com/Office-2008-for-Dummies |

Unless you have moved it, it should be in /Users/ ~ /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/ 4) If the following files exist, Remove or rename them: ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Word Settings (10) ~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Word Settings (11) User/Library/Preferences/com.Microsoft.Word.plist User/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2008 (the whole folder!) 5) Now re-start Word 2008 and it should be OK. Be thorough with this, if you leave any of these files behind Word 2008 will find them and won't replace them. Do it right and Word will construct a new, clean, set of preferences and everything should now work. Make sure you are updated to 12.2.4.

| Can't install after using Trial Version Posted: 17 Apr 2010 10:40 PM PDT got it to work. could never get the uninstaller to work > it would either hang or not find any other versions. dragged the office folder to the trash and emptied it, also delete the plist as noted above. you'll know you're doing it right if it asks you for your ID # during the install process. good luck - works pretty well and people at work can't tell i am using a Mac :-) |
| Posted: 06 Apr 2010 08:56 PM PDT As Rob suggests, this sounds like a matter that needs to be tackled by way of a setting adjustment in or fix to whatever this "third-party software" may be. I'm curious as to why such a program is necessary, though. Office has its own AutoUpdate app, as does most every other software. Typically the apps can be set to notify of updates on a periodic basis, including as a matter of routine each time you launch it. -- Regards |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Mark Pavlick" <org> wrote in message news:googlegroups.com... |

| Importing holidays to the calendar Posted: 29 Mar 2010 12:29 PM PDT I just noticed something. Rather odd. As stated, no holidays show in my calendar. But now I notice that in the "Assign Categories" window (click on an email, click on "Categories"), in that window, Christian, Jewish, and United States holidays are listed. That is the categories for those are listed. The holidays themselves did not download and are not listed in the calendar. |

| Develop solutions for MAC Office Posted: 17 Mar 2010 11:18 PM PDT Shujaat wrote: Please take Bob Greenblatt up on his offer. He'll treat you very well. Meanwhile, the answer to your question is a qualified "Yes, you can." As Rob Schneider pointed out, VBA is absent in Office 2008. However it is available in Office 2004 and will be available again in Office 2011 (not 2010) on the Mac. Office 2011 will debut later this year. You will need to know the hardware and software capabilities of your user base. Office 2004 runs on PowerPC processors and Intel processors and has VBA version 5. The VBA compiler had to be rebuilt for Intel, so I suspect Office 2011 will require Intel processors, and of course, Office 2011. It's not too soon to start developing for Office 2011. Bob will fill you in on the way to build good cross-platform applications. Avoid Active-X like the plague. Learn a few simple rules about Mac file path conventions, and you're applications will be able to run nicely. And yes, there's an Apple installer application. http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/SoftwareDistribution/Install_Operations/Install_Operations.html -Jim -- Jim Gordon Mac MVP Co-author of Office 2008 for Mac All-in-One For Dummies http://tinyurl.com/Office-2008-for-Dummies |

The MAU will find other copies of Office on backups that need updating, but it will fail to install until you boot from that partition.
