Trial Version expired: To Buy online Posted: 21 Jan 2008 12:21 AM PST Basically, you can't turn the Test Drive into a full version. You will need to buy a proper full version instead, then run the Remove Office tool (in Applications/Microsoft Office 2004/Additional Tools/Remove Office). After that, you're free to install the full version. I would recommend buying Office 2008 Home & Student, as its relatively low price tag will allow you to install Office on up to three Macs in your household. Additionally, if you install Office 2008, the Test Drive should be removed automatically.

Major issues with Word 2008 student teacher edition for Mac Posted: 20 Jan 2008 01:52 PM PST In article <com>, "Chuck McLaughlin"<com> wrote: Since the behaviors you list are pretty anomalous, I wouldn't hold my breath for a fix unless we can narrow down the problem a bit. First, what OS version are you running? What hardware (e.g., PPC/Intel, speed, RAM)? Are you using a remote home folder? Are your files on a network location or local? Perhaps most importantly, does this same behavior happen if you create a new OSX user? For 1, what is a "big" ppt file? For 2 and 3, does this happen with new files as well as old? |
Serial problem - Two computers on same network Posted: 20 Jan 2008 12:46 PM PST JE, It did work!!!. Thank you very much!!. Max. |

Make sure you include a description of how it will help you do what you need to do in XL and PPT to help the developers understand and prioritize the business case for including the feature. |

Unfortunately, in terms of real-world usability, it's panning out to be a freaking *nightmare* for users, because it simply dosn't work as well as it should. According to test done by others in these news groups, Sync Services is unable to synchronize multiple phone number fields, email address fields, and so on, ostensibly because it considers them duplicates. In fact, it fails to synchronize a lot of the data that Entourage Handheld Sync Conduit synchronized with ease, including categories. You may consider that to be "just fine", but some of us consider it to be a step backward. -- Note: Please send all responses to the relevant news group.

cannot register office mac 2008 product id invalid Posted: 18 Jan 2008 04:26 PM PST Same for me. Invalid Product ID # . Microsoft suggests you go to help menu and click on About for the Product ID. Tried that and it does not appear to exist either. Awesome MS! |

Without knowing what image calls are causing the problem, it's impossible for anyone to say what's "right". I can't reproduce your results - I worked for over an hour this morning with a Word document containing multiple images without getting a single error message. Is your assumption valid for your machine? Do you continue to get these errors at that rate? Are you doing anything in particular when they occur? Do you get these errors from Word and XL while working on different files? Since it's not happening universally, it won't be an issue for everyone. However, you should use Help/Send Feedback to report it to MacBU. |
Posted: 18 Jan 2008 01:36 PM PST Hi Bob, Thanks for your reply. I tried that but unfortunately it didn't do the trick. The startup is still around 5 minutes for both Word and Entourage. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks! |
Posted: 18 Jan 2008 05:58 AM PST My next suggestions are as follows: 1. Check the permissions on ~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/User Templates/Normal.dotm. Ensure you have write access to the file and the folder. 2. Try moving or deleting the above file 3. Try moving or deleting (if it exists) ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Normal 4. Try moving or deleting ~/Library/Preferences com.Microsoft.Word.plist Let me know if any of these remedy the problem.
