Right-click it and choose Download Linked File (Safari) or Save Link As
(Firefox) to download it to your hard disk.

Note that Safari, stupidly, gives it the .txt extension, which you will
need to remove before using the font.

Vista is the most recent version of the Microsoft Windows *operating
system*. It does not include the MS Office applications - of which
PowerPoint is one. MS Office (or PowerPoint itself) must be purchased
separately.

Can't Reinstall Office 2004 Upgrade

Posted: 10 Sep 2007 01:56 PM PDT

Yeah, Diane is correct: sadly this is the main reason why I think very
carefully before buying "upgrade" versions. If you lose access to the
"qualifying" software, you are in a bind if you need to re-install.

Obviously, they do this to prevent us buying an upgrade, then selling the
old version :-)

However, ANY prior version will do, back to Office 98. As Diane says, if
you can borrow a CD from any one of those versions, that's all you need.

Put your upgrade version in, and when it doesn't find the qualifying
product, it will ask for the other CD. Insert that, it will have a look,
then ask for the upgrade CD back and continue its install.

Cheers

wmf files not printing properly from mac office applications

Posted: 10 Sep 2007 01:02 PM PDT

Hi Karen:

Eeeewwww :-) Last time I saw WMF do that, it was because the graphic was
too complex.

I would just check that you have the latest update to QuickTime on your Mac
‹ that's the converter it's using.

Where did you get these WMFs from? I would be inclined to copy these
pictures out on the PC using Visio (or any other graphics program...) and
convert them to PICT. You need to use a real graphics program for this,
because WMF and PICT are not exactly equivalent, so some serious computer
processing is required for an accurate conversion.

Re-insert the PICTs on the Mac. PICT is to the Mac what WMF is to Windows.

Cheers

Office 2004 -- how to force the fonts to reinstall?

OK - that gives a clearer picture of the situation:-)

The very first thing you'll need to do is borrow your housemate's disk, but
it will need to be a Full Version, not an *upgrade* - if it's from an
upgrade package you'll also need full version install disk to complete the
installation. Although using one of his/her keys is technically a EULA
violation you can be the judge there... or better - if possible - have
someone from home locate the key for your copy. In general the procedure
will go as follows, but review the web page via the link below;

Rename or move the Microsoft User Data folder.

Next the installation disk has a Remove Office utility program which you'll
need to run in order to remove all traces of any versions of Office
currently installed. Run the utility more than once to be sure it gets
everything.

Once you reinstall Office apply the 11.3.5, 11.3.6 & 11.3.7 updates in that
sequence.

You should then be in good shape. Complete details can be found here for
step-by-step instruction:

http://word.mvps.org/Mac/RemoveReinstall.html

If you have any further problems or questions don't hesitate to post them
here.

BTW, this _ain't_ my job:-) All who contribute here do so voluntarily, so
you may very well get some additional input from others picking up on the
thread.

Problems with Office 2004

Posted: 08 Sep 2007 08:22 AM PDT

Thank you. That seemed to solve the problem.

A trial version later than 11.2.1 needed

Posted: 07 Sep 2007 08:27 PM PDT

Hi David:

This problem has two causes:

1) You ran the updaters out of sequence. You must run 11.3.5 first, then
11.3.6, then 11.3.7.

2) You actually have installed the paid-for version of Office on that
computer as well. If you have, you need to remove both.

I suppose it could be that the Test Drive version you have has expired? It
will neither work nor update if its trial period has expired. The only way
around that for testing purposes is to set your system clock back to the
time when the test drive did work.

But I would be amazingly careful doing that if I were proposing to synch: it
is likely to destroy your mobile device database. Backup, backup, and back
up the backup...

Later versions of Microsoft Office are not available on disk: all MS CDs are
pressed with version 11.0.0 on them (so everyone knows what version "the CD"
is at).

Cheers

Hi Alex!

John has a good idea about "file server protocols". A lot of Mac users
don't realize that they can connect via AFP (Apple Filing Protocol) and
SMB (aka CIFS). AFP is the Mac's native language for file sharing and
SMB is the Windows language for file sharing. Macs are great because
they can do both but each method has its own limitations. Placing a file
on the server via SMB and then later trying to access that file via AFP
can lead to problems and vice versa.

Try this...

Have your user connect to the server first using: "afp://servername" or
"afp://serverIPaddress". How does the file appear this way?

Next, have your user connect to the server using "smb://servername" or
"smb://serverIPaddress". How does it appear now?

You may not necessarily be able to use both of these protocols but if
you can then that's a good indication that the switch between protocols
is your problem. Simply stick to one or the other and you'll be fine.

Hope this helps!

Note: Due to a bug in 10.4 (still not fixed AFAIK) the Finder cannot find

It is better to activate the finder, then under the 'go' menu, select 'go to

If there is a lost+found folder it will open, if not, you will get a 'folder

In the future you can stuff/zip your Office folder prior to updating. This
copy can be used to rescue a disaster like you experienced.

failures moving/copying public folders from exchange 5.5 to pst with outlook 2000/2003

Posted: 11 Aug 2004 08:58 AM PDT

good day.

i'm a one-man network shop with exchange 5.5 on nt4, outlook 2000 on win2k,
and (seemingly random) messages in the public folders on the exchange that
outlook is unable to copy to a pst. searched knowledge base at least 6
different ways, and have been unable to locate anything to help me get the
messages copied.

when copy attempted with outlook, either 2000 or xp, dialog says "Can't
copy the items. Some items could not be copied. They were either moved or
deleted, or access was denied."

seems to recreate the entire pf structure in destination pst, and moves
SOME messages, then quits with "some items could not be copied. they were
either moved or deleted, or access was denied." if i restart the move on
messages remaining in a subfolder, an unpredictable number (1 or 3 or 20 or
5 or...) will then move. if i restart again with the same selection of
remaining messages, it will again move an unpredictable number. repeating
this process 1,5,10,80, or 100 times will EVENTUALLY move the entire content
of the folder.

i am attempting the export in the context of a domain admin and an exchange
OWNER. an ipm_subtree folder is created, with the structure of the pf and
sub-pfs beneath, with some folders PARTIALLY populated.

taking contents of a smaller sub-pf and attempting to move 22 messages to
the pst file that i created with the export..... failed with the same export
message noted above. then, manually moved the remaining messages one-by-one.
when moved singularly, they all went to the pst.

moving them from pst back to pf succeeded completely.

i need to get the entire pf structure and content to a new site, so trying
to remove from server and deposit into pst.

any help is greatly appreciated.

cursor has turned into a flickering hourglass & lost duplex printing

Posted: 17 Mar 2013 10:25 PM PDT

I am running Office Home & Business 2010 on a Windows 7 platform.  After the recent windows update, two disturbing things occurred.  In Word, the cursor has turned into a flickering hourglass which does not revert to a regular cursor [very irritating!]. The second problem is that the printer menu has changed and no longer provides the duplex printing option, which I use almost exclusively.  It only allows for Single Page or Manual 2 Sided Printing. I have done a complete virus check [with Norton 360] which comes up clean. Any suggestions?

Answer snipped.
Apologies for jumping in the thread.
Am going to try this myself but if anyone has more specific handle to
the following problem your input would be appreciated.:

This was originally posted to microsoft.public.office:

Tried installing CD2 of Office 2000 professional (an OEM disc) over
Office Premier to get Publisher on a Win98 ed2 machine. Installation
just grinds to halt with no warning of any sort on CD2. CD1 is OK.

Tried too on this Win XP machine. Installation of CD2 grinds to halt
with warning 2349. Trying to customise installation for just Publisher
ends up with a multitude of warnings about not reading files. The first
one I came across and which crops up a lot is FPEXT.MSG and there is
another one relating to RPTWB.XLT.

When I try to make a copy to a hard disc of installation disc 2 there is
a warning about a non cyclic check for a file.

Have looked up Microsoft support articles 236437 and 329386 which relate
to Internal Errors 2349, 2341, 2355 (only the first of which I have
encountered on the WinXP trial installation) which do not appear
relevant to the problems here.

If you have come across anything that relates to this problem I would be
very grateful for a pointer.

OOoCon because some people communicated too sloppy I learned that it is

especially if you talk to non-developers (the majority of members on
this list are no developers, I assume).

So I just mentioned that there wasn't any proposal to migrate from VCL
to XUL. Some developers evaluated XUL for dialogs but even this was
discarded for several reasons.

MI5 Persecution: their methods and tactics

Posted: 28 Nov 2006 07:51 AM PST

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-= MI5: methods and tactics -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

They deliberately set out to harass in a way that would resemble the
symptoms of schizophrenia, so that any report of the harassment would be
taken as indicating mental illness and "treated" accordingly. They never
show their own faces; they only work through proxies, in the media, among
the public, and by manipulating people in the workplace. Since they do not
declare their identity there is no evidence to initiate legal action
against the security services or anyone else. The only people you can
prosecute are the proxies and they will deny knowledge of any conspiracy.

By repeatedly humiliating and abusing the victim, they induced mental
illness. This is the worst form of human rights violation: making any
statement of the harassment appear to be symptomatic of the illness which
they cause through the harassment. That this can happen, and people collude
by silence, is absolutely horrifying.

From the beginning in June 1990 they set a pattern of harassment which they
have followed without change for the last six years. They paint me as a
"threat" to which people must "react" (shades of Nazi persecution methods),
while simultaneously portraying their hate campaign on which they have
spent over a million pounds of taxpayers' money as a "joke".

The MI5 that breaks the law with the silent complicity of the police is the
same agency that is now seeking a role in the fight against crime. Perhaps
the real joke is the proposed involvement in the implementation of justice
of an organisation which commits criminal acts with secrecy and disinterest
for the legal process.

MI5 Persecution: Bernard Levin expresses his views

Posted: 28 Nov 2006 07:18 AM PST


The article of which part is reproduced below was penned by Bernard Levin
for the Features section of the Times on 21 September 1991. To my mind, it
described the situation at the time and in particular a recent meeting with
a friend, during which I for the first time admitted to someone other than
my GP that I had been subjected to a conspiracy of harassment over the
previous year and a half.
 

At the time this article was written I had believed for some time that
columnists in the Times and other journalists had been making references to
my situation. Nothing unusual about this you may think, plenty of people
have the same sort of ideas and obviously the papers aren't writing about
them, so why should my beliefs not be as false as those of others?

What makes this article so extraordinary is that three or four days
immediately preceding its publication, I had a meeting with a friend,
during the course of which we discussed the media persecution, and in
particular that by Times columnists. It seemed to me, reading the article
by Levin in Saturday's paper, that he was describing in some detail his
"artist's impression" of that meeting. Most telling are the final
sentences, when he writes, "The madman bursts into tears, and swears it is
all true. And it is." Although I did not "burst into tears" (he seems to be
using a bit of poetic licence and exaggerating) I did try hard to convince
my friend that it was all true; and I am able to concur with Mr Levin,
because, of course, it is.

At the beginning of the piece Levin reveals a fear of being attacked by the
"irrational" subject of his story, saying "I have no reason to believe that
he is violent, but he should certainly be approached with caution". This
goes back to the xenophobic propaganda of "defence" against a "threat"
which was seen at the very beginning of the harassment. The impression of a
"madman running loose" who needs to be controlled through an agency which
assigns to itself the mantle of the "police" is also one which had been
expressed elsewhere.

In the final paragraph of this extract, his reference to Everyman's Library
as having "died a lingering and shameful death a decade or so ago" shows
clearly what sort of conclusion they wish to their campaign. They want a
permanent solution, and as they are prevented from achieving that solution
directly, they waste significant resources on methods which have been
repeatedly shown to be ineffective for such a purpose.

Another voice in the choir here:-0

Technically, No - the assumption in the EULA being that *you* aren't using
both systems simultaneously. Also, if the two units are networked the second
iteration will be denied if the same keyed copy is already in use by the
other. Obviously, however, if there is no connection between the two systems
the one can't detect what the other is running.

Options to quit:

1. In Entourage Menu select "Turn off Office Notifications"

2. Double-click the Office Notifications program, located in the Microsoft

Office Notifications.

3. Fire up Activity Monitor, look for 'database daemon' and choose 'quit

Every time I run the spellcheck in Office 2004 for mac it quits.

That was an early bug caused by the presence of Unicode characters in the
custom dictionary.

I would be surprised if it has come back again, but to prove it, try the
following:

1) Locate your custom dictionary and change the name of it (all Office
applications must be quit when you do this).

2) Create a new file named the same name as your custom dictionary in
TextEdit. Make sure you convert the file to Plain Text before you save it.

It doesn't matter whether the file has anything in it or not, so long as it
IS plain text and it has no Unicode characters in it. For the purposes of
this test, I would leave it blank.

Now try again: if this is the problem, Word will not crash. You can copy
the content of your previous custom dictionary into the new one, making sure
you do not have any characters other than the ANSI character set in it.

And if this is the problem, try re-applying the last three Office Updates:
this bug was fixed early in the life of the product...

Cheers

This sounds like a system level problem. One of the quickest and easiest
ways to solve system wide problems is to run the latest Apple combo updater.
Doing so overwrites potentially problem-causing files. Combo updaters will
install on the same version as they¹re applying‹no need to roll back or do a
clean install.

You mentioned you had a MacPro so you'll need this combo updater:

Mac OS X 10.4.10 Combo Update (Intel)

<http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosx_updates/macosx10410combo
updatev11intel.html>

Be sure to restart and run Repair Permissions after running the combo
updater.

Using Repair Permissions after installing MS Office or any application that
uses an installer is often advised. To use Repair Permissions:

1. Open Disk Utility in your Applications/Utility folder.
2. Click on the First Aid tab and select Repair Permissions
3. Click on the icon for your boot volume.
4. Click the repair permissions button.

Don't run from CD. Updates contain a newer versions of the application's
permissions.

If you can't run "Remove Office" from the CD after this, you'll need to do
an "Archive & Install". We'll help you with that if needed.

Need Help with Making Address Labels with Data Merge

Posted: 21 Aug 2007 06:45 PM PDT

late addendum--cc'ing to the poster's email (maybe--if Thunderbird behaves).

on the Data Merge Manager palette, when you hit the Preview button, it
will show the first page of labels. But you have to hit a Merge button
(Merge to New Document preferred over Merge to Printer) to get all the
data used, and actually get your 24 pages of labels with different
addresses on every label.

The Preview button is a big trickster--many people have been trapped in
this way, because it looks like you are all done when you get that first
sheet of merged labels.
