Cannot Update Office 2004-- help? Posted: 22 Nov 2007 12:06 AM PST Hi Little Creature and Diane, Thanks for your ideas. A few responses: 1) I don't even know what Test Drive is, so I wasn't using that... 2) I have been repairing disk permissions before and after each attempted install, with no results... 3) Now there seems to be a bigger problem, because I tried to install the Mac OSX update (from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10) but cannot even update that-- it runs and then just says "update failed." So I don't know what the problem is. Any more ideas? Thanks so much, Samantha |
calibri font Posted: 21 Nov 2007 06:21 PM PST Yeah: I think it's a self-expanding .CAB. Stuffit should be able to get it open. And no, nobody can "legally" email anyone those fonts. Otherwise I would have :-) On 22/11/07 10:13 PM, in article C36B2A04.22FF70%invalid, "Richard H" <invalid> wrote: -- Don't wait for your answer, click here: http://www.word.mvps.org/ Please reply in the group.

Where can I download an open-document format add-in for Office 2004for Mac? Posted: 19 Nov 2007 10:40 AM PST Hi Michel: I Think he was. There's an ODF converter for PC Word, but not Mac Word (not yet). The Microsoft format is known as OOXML. There is a lot of "political" and "religious" argument about the two formats. The bottom line is that ODF is not powerful enough to describe Microsoft Office files. You "can" down-grade a Microsoft document to ODF, but when you do, you will strip out various components of the content.

Remove Office Registration doesn't work! Posted: 18 Nov 2007 05:35 PM PST On Nov 20, 4:44 am, Daiya Mitchell <org.INVALID> wrote: Thanks for all the info. I'm not using Leopard, still using 10.4.11. I've now deleted all the extraneous Office apps and now only have Office 2004 on my hard drive. The nessage I get when I try to remove just the Licence Info is a small box that reads " Before you can re- enter your Microsoft Office licensing information, certain files that you no longer need must be removed from your computer. To remove these files, click Remove." When I do that, the beachball spins for a while and them I'm brought back to the Welcome to Remove Office box, and so the merry-go-round begins again. I do regular back-ups to an external hard drive using Super Duper, so I'm not worried about losing any files, and I don't use Entourage. However, I don't really want to uninstall and then reinstall Word as I would then have to go through and do all the updates. I'll see what happens on my daughter's computer and then let you know. Gosh it's tempting to just use iWork! Cheers |
Using Office 2004 student teacher edition on multiple computers on alocal network Posted: 18 Nov 2007 02:24 PM PST com wrote: Side note--every installation will have a different Product ID in the About menu. However, if the Product IDs differ *only* in the last block of numbers, then it means the same license key was used to install all of them. When a key is used multiple times, it creates a different Product ID every time, but the first three blocks will always be identical. |
How to paste a list of hyperlinks (e.g. list of external blog links)into Excel and keep the titles and the links?

I must install that... :-) Cheers On 18/11/07 10:39 PM, in article phx.gbl, "Daiya Mitchell" <org.INVALID> wrote: -- Don't wait for your answer, click here: http://www.word.mvps.org/ Please reply in the group.

OS 10.5 and Entourage 2004 Email: crash if click font colorbutton Posted: 16 Nov 2007 06:59 PM PST On 11/17/07 8:55 PM, in article googlegroups.com, "com" <com> wrote: During the font-color-button crash period, I had no problems with other font buttons. Font selection in Entourage email seems (emphasize "seems"--because I'm not sure it is--slower with Leopard than it used to be under Tiger. For anybody tuning into this thread late: MY font-color button problems were solved by trashing the font cache. Up 'til then, Entourage crashed each time I used that button. And as I mentioned earlier in the thread, I have used no haxies at all with Leopard. I also did an erase-and-clean-install installation of Leopard. Somehow, along the way, the font cache became corrupted and nothing short of trashing it had worked. The only fonts I added since installing Leopard were for Intuit's TurboTax application but I vaguely recall that I already was having font-color-button problems in Entourage earlier. Incidentally, I had no problems with Word, Excel or other applications' font-color selections. Respectfully, Norm |
