How do I convince Office to upgrade myOffice 2008 Home and Student to Office 2008Business?

Posted: 17 Mar 2010 06:31 AM PDT

One of the pitfalls of using the miserable Mactopia Forums web UI ‹ the
message you're replying to has never been seen by most responders. I'm
citing the original post for the benefit of others as well as yourself:
 

There is no "upgrade" from one edition of Office 2008 to another. They are
differently licensed packagings of Office & must be purchased separately. If
you do, you must properly remove the Home/Student Edition plus certain other
files in order to successfully install the Business Edition.

If you do have to make the replacement see topics #1, #2 & (if needed) #5 on
this page: http://www.entourage.mvps.org/install/index.html

I'll offer that if you search via Google for "musical symbols in excel"

Office 2004 update 11.5.7 cannot locatecorrect version of software

Posted: 11 Mar 2010 12:07 PM PST

There is no "10.1.4 of Office 2004" :-) Office 2004 is version 11.x.x

The first thing I'd suggest is that you run Help> Check for Updates from the
menu of any Office app.

If you have any problems please post a NEW mesage rather than sticking a 'me
too' REPLY onto a thread of another user. (Reply to posted messages from
others only if you have a suggestion or solution to offer.) Be sure to
accurately indicate exactly what version & update level of Office you're
using as well as specific details pertinent to your situation.

A newer version Microsoft Office 2008 is already installed

Hi

For some reason I can't see the postings at the beginning of this
thread. I surmise you are trying to switch from Home and Student or the
free trial to Microsoft Office Business Edition.

The message is trying to tell you that in order to install a different
edition you must first use the Remove Office tool and remove the edition
that's currently installed. The "newer" refers to updates that you have
installed, but "newer" really isn't the issue here. You need to start
fresh with the Business Edition software, as it has more features.

If the Business Edition installer does not offer to remove the existing
copy of Office, you'll find the Remove Office tool in Applications >
Microsoft Office 2008 > Additional Tools > Remove Office folder. Use the
Remove Office tool to remove the current edition. Restart your computer
and then empty the trash before running the installer for Business Edition.

Be sure to let the updates happen. Your Entourage identities will work
again once all the updates are installed. Install any MacOS updates
(Apple menu > Software Update) too, as Microsoft and Apple work together
to fix certain bugs. Despite all the hype to the contrary, it is
essential to both companies to have Microsoft Office on the Mac working
in top form. System updates can work hand-in-hand with Office updates.

When all this installing is done, head to Applications > Utilities >
Disk Utility. Repair permissions for sure, and verify the hard drive for
good measure.

Lastly, also in the Utilities folder is Font Book. This Apple utility
can resolve duplicate fonts and validate them. Font issues are a
frequent cause of problems, lately, and you can avoid these problems if
you resolve duplicates and validate your fonts.

Upgrade Office 2008 - Home & Student to Business Edition

Posted: 02 Mar 2010 10:09 AM PST

I did not download. What concerned me:

: original op didn't explain the problem
: original op declared, essentially, "just download this and all is well".

Sounds too perfect. Similar to the spam I get and ignore (but sadly too
many do not ignore).

I guess I'm just a cynic.

Hi Michael,

It is still possible to create folder actions without using Automator.
You can do it using AppleScript. You would create a script that
accomplishes the same thing: Opens the document in Word and then saves
the document as PDF.

I don't know AppleScript well enough to give you a step-by-step but I
don't think it would be many more steps than using Automator. This isn't
exactly the wording, but it would go something like:

Tell Application Microsoft Word Open as Document
Save As Format PDF
Close Document

Head to this web site for more details
http://developer.apple.com/applescript

Really, AppleScript is not that hard to use if you just need to do
something quick like this. There are plenty of examples.

If so, can it 

You can update any application for free, but you can't upgrade without
purchasing.

An update takes you from 10.0 to 10.1.9
An upgrade would be to install either Office 2004 or Office 2008.

If you don't need Exchange you can get Office 2008 very reasonably from
Amazon with free shipping. $109.99 (price can vary slightly)

G'day Yetta,
you would like to delete just the "history" reference right?

Just open another document, then close it.
the reference you want to remove will drop one down the list

Repeat until the ref disappears.

There may be a way of doing this through "Tweak UI"
but I cannot recall the procedure.

If you are using an HP printer, check their web site. I believe there are

Works 8 vs Works 9

Posted: 31 Aug 2007 10:02 AM PDT

Hi Wilbur,

It depends on what use you put Works to.

Works 9.0 - new features:

Task Pane added to the RHS of the screen for the WP, DB and SS.
Included in this task pane is:

MRU list of the users documents.

Link to quickly browse documents and templates

Link to create new documents

Context sensitive 'Tip of the day' appears in the Task Pane.

Integrated Live Search in the WP, DB and SS, allowing web searches
without the need to leave the Works application. Results are displayed
in the Web browser.

Integration with Office 2007 converters which will allow the users
to open and save to:

o WP: .docx, .docm and .doc

o SS: .xlsx, xlsb and .xls

Office PowerPoint Viewer 2007

Integration with Microsoft Update

Vista Calendar integration which will allow a user to import
appointments from Vista's Calendar.

Opportunity to enrol in the Microsoft's Customer Experience
Improvement Program.

The calendar now supports up to 32 Calendars; Works 8, had 4
calendars.

From the Works Hitlist we see :

Proofing tools - the English version supports Spanish, French and
German.

WP retains number formatting during mail merge

WP mail-merges directly from XLR files (formatting not retained).

Calendar has customisable font size - when a user prints the month
view of the calendar, they can choose between 3 different font sizes:
small, medium and large).

I bought a laptop to use away from the PC, but I realised of course I'd have to get Office to be able to transfer Word files from one to the other. Is there a way around this, or do I basically have to shell out more dough for this product? I saw some free compatible software online but is that advisable to download??? Please advise. Also, can I use Office 2010 on my laptop which has Windows 8.1 on it? the 2013 seems very expensive.

So, I desire to use a large font size of 18 point or thereabouts. However, I am unable to "crowd" two lines of text to accommodate the spine width. I have tried all the "Line Spacing" features such as "single", "at least", "multiple" and various "point sizes"


I just cannot seem to overcome the minimum of "single line" spacing. The smaller point sizes just lop off the tops of the second line of text, but does not decrease the actual spacing between lines.


I guess I would expect that I could choose to have one line of text atop another or a very narrow space , but as I said I merely lop or chop off the second text line. As an example, say spacing actually measures 1/4". Why can I not change it to say 1/8" ?


Am I asking Word line spacing for the impossible?


Thanks,

Ron Reeland

Fomatting issue not sure how to eliminate or what caused this?

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 02:05 PM PST

I am helping my roommate edit his novel.  Somehow there is a line on the left margin and lines of dots.  When you move the mouse over the line of dots it changes to lines with arrows which look like they can be moved.  I have included the sample.  I have the vertical line appearing elsewhere in the manuscript.  I have never seen this before.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

How do I save a template from an existing file, such as a job application, and then reopen it to fill-in the blanks without the format of the document moving around?

Word Web App Table Cell

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 12:28 PM PST

I have a table in a Word Web App document.  There is a cell with content in it.  The font color is black and it seems the background of just the text is slightly gray.  I can't edit or delete this content.  It seems that it is protected in some way.  What is going on here?  How can I remove this "protected" state and delete or edit this content?  I can't even delete the table row that the cell is in.  Thank you.

image in first page header doesn’t appear when having a second page in document

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 12:16 PM PST

I have a macro: It lets me choose images that will be placed in the headers (first page header and continuing pages) and it puts images into the footer (first page footer and continuing page footers).

It seems to work fine. BUT if I have a document with multiple pages the image in the first page header disappears! I have no idea what is wrong with the code :( 

This is what I would like to have eventually:

> first page header
image1 in top right corner
> first page footer
image2

> other page headers
image3 in top right corner
> other page footers
image4

Any tips or help would be highly appreciated :)

Unintended jumping to a previous part of the text

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 11:38 AM PST

While creating a Word document (both in Word and in Outlook), I find that my cursor has jumped to a previous place in the text and the text I am creating is being inserted there.  I can't figure out a patterns to the jumps.  This happens on two different keyboards?   so I don't think I'm accidentally hitting a function key.  What am I doing?  (And as I typed the "oing" in "doing" it jumped up to the end of "keyboards" in the previous line.)  I am running Word Version 14.0.7106.5003 (32 bit)

Some words/text vary in size, although shown as correct size in Font window

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 11:37 AM PST

I'm having an odd problem. In a file that I converted from a PDF, some of the words are displaying in a slightly smaller and narrower/width font than the style is set for.

The formatting is simple for this file - I just need everything in 10-pt timesnewroman font. and that's what I've styled "Normal" as.

and I've selected the entire file and hit "Normal" to style it all as that. that didn't fix the varying font sizes.

I've selected individual lines and went into the Font setting to make them all 10-pt and that didn't do it. I tried making them 9 pt and then back to 10 pt and that didn't work.

BUT ... when I click on (select) the individual word and then hit "Normal", it fixes it (that is, it increases the font size and width to match the rest of the line).

For the life of me, I can't see any difference in the "features" of these non-compliant words.

Anyone have any idea how I can fix this, short of eyeballing 18 pages of lines and fixing each of the words individually?

thanks!

Accessing Macros Shuts Down Word

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 08:50 AM PST

Hi,

I have Office 2013 suite, running on an Windows 8.1

I have been using basic macros to help me write my dissertation over the past few days on Word. Today however, when I run a macro, look up macros, or even try to change the macros in word, the entire programme shuts down.

I have tried restarting several times, but the problem seems to be persisting.

What should I do?

Many thanks in advance for all the help!

Did anyone find out the reason for the word cntl key holding down?

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 07:03 AM PST

I have the same problem. Like many of the posts I have done that has been suggested and switched off everything, but it raises its head again and again.

I even replaced the keyboard in my laptop, still the problem occurs. I disconnected all devices, but still after time it happens again.

I believe it is a problem in Word, and not with hardware in computers, once you restart the computer all fine, until the next time.

Has anyone had any success as yet with the problem.


Word 2013 stopped working; don't know what to do

Posted: 19 Jan 2014 04:46 AM PST

I just installed Office 2013 and everything was fine until today and now Word has stopped working.  I have tried to search the internet to find a solution but I am not that tech-saavy and don't understand most of the posts.  Can someone help with a really simple answer to the problem?  I cannot open in Safe mode either.   I am traveling overseas and don't have access to the original disks to reinstall.  Please help!


Error in highlighting text (scrolling over with mouse)

Posted: 18 Jan 2014 11:11 PM PST

Hi all,

I just installed office 2013 and have been having one consistently strange error.

On first opening up word, I have no problem and can easily highlight text (such as highlighting a sentence to delete it).
If I tab away from word, and then again return to the same file, I can no longer highlight.
A little windows loading symbol appears very momentarily (the amount of time it takes for me to click), and I am unable to select/highlight anything as before.

If I save and close word, and then reopen the file - I can then use it as normal (until I tab away once again).

Any idea about what this issue is?

I was using windows 8 with word 2010 previously, I have just got a new laptop, have installed windows 8.1 and have the one month office 2013 trial.

Thanks,

Table cell borders disappear when document converted to PDF

Posted: 18 Jan 2014 04:50 PM PST

Why do my table cells (some with shading, some without) boarder lines disappear when I convert my word 2010 document to PDF - this mostly happens with the top boarder but randomly with side boarders as well. Could it be something to do with my default cell margins?

read only ?

Brand new Dell PC w/ MS Office 2013.   All documents (My docs and my external drive) come up as "Read only."  Have tried all kinds of recommended fexes and nothing seems to remedy the situation.  Very frustrating.   Any solutions?   Thanks.

Matt,

The user in question does not exist in any of the groups or roles in the CRM
OU. I have noticed however that if I run the User Data export from the
redeployment tools, the user in question does show up in the exported XML
data. There must be a table that is referencing that domain user somewhere,
but I can not find it anywhere.

Unfortunately, without coding some SDK calls yourself, you can't specify both a
recipient and a template. The only work around I've been able to find it is to
create a activity that instructs a user to manually send the email, but that
isn't a very good solution either.
