Office - Business Install problem with Snow Leopard Posted: 26 Dec 2009 11:13 AM PST Make sure you aren't confusing 2 completely separate codes; On 1/1/10 12:53 AM, in article com, "jcharles" <microsoft.com> wrote: It's the Product *ID* that is generated during installation. This is a 20 digit number which is then accessible from the About... dialog for each of the apps in the Office Suite. If you cannot get the software installed or can't launch any of the apps you would have no idea what this is, but MS Support should understand that. What they most likely are asking for is... The Product *Key*, which is the 25 character code (maybe a combination of numbers & letters) provided [most commonly, depending on origin of the software] on a label affixed to the storage sleeve the source disk ships in. This is the "code" you enter when installing the software. This is typically requested for at least 2 reasons; (1) to confirm that the caller does actually have one, & (2) to determine that it is a valid key code. Regards |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac |
Posted: 24 Dec 2009 10:42 PM PST What does this have to do with Microsoft Office for Macintosh?

Downgrading from Office 2008 for Macs to Office 2004 for Macs Posted: 13 Dec 2009 12:29 PM PST Hi Elena; You've posed a number of questions here so let's see if we can untangle them one at a time :-) First, there is no Office 2004 for Windows. Office 2004 is a Mac version, but both it & Office 2008 are comparable to Office 2003 for Windows. If you're 'comfortable' with Office 2003 or Office 2004 there's no reason you can't acclimate to Office 2008 if you give it a little time. The most significant difference is that there is no VBA in Office 2008, but unless you need to use Macros that shouldn't pose a problem. Next, Office 2004 & Office 2008 are separate releases of Mac Office, so yes, if you have one & want the other you'll have to pay for it... Unless the vendor you bought 2008 from will allow an exchange, which is unlikely. There is no "downgrade" option available. Should you wind up with both versions you can have them both installed at the same time & use whichever whenever. [The one exception is Entourage... If you use it at all you can only use one version or the other. Once you start using Entourage 2008 you can't revert to Entourage 2004. If you were using 2004 you can upgrade to 2008 at any time or continue using Entourage 2004 as long as you have it installed even though you start using the other Office 2008 programs.] There's no need to remove either version of Office, but if you do you're able to re-install it whenever you're ready. Just make sure to keep the disk & the sleeve with your Product Keys in a safe place. As far as the distinction between the .doc & the .docx file formats: Office 2008 can effectively work with either & you can set its default to ..doc if you wish. Keep in mind, though, that the new format is more stable, more secure & more disk-efficient than the older binary file format, so for any new documents you create it would be a better choice. The older format does not support many of the features added in Office 2008, especially with regard to the more sophisticated graphics features. Other users continue to use the .doc format because that's what their existing documents have been saved in. However, any Windows version 2000 or later & any Mac version v.X or later can open & edit .docx files. Those users only need the free converters supplied by Microsoft. If they've been keeping up with their software updates they should already have the converters whether they realize it or not.

Font Book, Corrupt Fonts and Microsoft Office and Snow Leopard Posted: 11 Dec 2009 12:07 PM PST All I can give you is feedback from users that found this fixed their problems. YMMV To me, keeping an older duplicate font around doesn't make sense. -- Diane |
Posted: 10 Dec 2009 03:08 PM PST Unfortunately your original post is among those that haven't been replicated to NNTP so those using newsreaders rather than the Mactopia web interface [virtually all of us] have never seen the message. I've looked it up & based on what you've described this may correct the issue: http://word.mvps.org/mac/SpellCheck.html#GrayAddButton If not, go to Word> Preferences> Spelling & Grammar, click the Dictionaries button then select the Custom Dictionary & click the Edit button. Just type a space, delete it, then close & save the dictionary file. See if that revives it. HTH |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac On 12/10/09 6:28 PM, in article JaKIaxP2ac0, "com" <com> wrote: |

Posted: 08 Dec 2009 03:31 PM PST CyberTaz <cast.net> wrote: Hi Bob, I haven't tried it myself so I can't be too affirmative but we've had several reports in the past. Apparently the serial numbers are not language-specific. They are universal and work with any install CD. As long as you have a copy of the install CD at hand, you can install and reinstall on your Mac just the same way you'd do it with the language version you originally bought. Of course, if you need to reinstall, you need the proper install CD. As you were previously pointing out, you can't convert a version from one language to the other. Up to now, updates have been fine.

Office Update 10.2.3 kills network connections to shares. Posted: 03 Dec 2009 01:07 PM PST Sorry to be so snarky. But I am an ASA and that is not the issue here. There is definitely something crazy going between Snow Leopard and Office 10.2.3. The fact that uninstalling office corrected the problem tells me there is something deeper than the OS. |

Click the blue question mark on the standard toolbar, or use the Help menu and choose Word Help from the menu (don't just type search terms in the search field there). A new Help window will open titled Word Help. In the search field in the upper right corner type Mail Merge and then press Return. The second item down in the search results should be a designated with a blue icon and titled Create a Form Letter by using the Mail Merge Manager.
