| Office 2008 "Student Select" and Exchange Posted: 28 Feb 2010 05:16 PM PST Diane Ross wrote: Hi Your university probably has a volume license, which does support Exchange. Only the Home and Student version comes without exchange support. Be certain to allow all the office and Mac OS updates to be installed, or your exchange experience may not be good. -Jim -- Jim Gordon Mac MVP Co-author of Office 2008 for Mac All-in-One For Dummies http://tinyurl.com/Office-2008-for-Dummies |
| why are the applications in Office 2008 so slow to open Posted: 27 Feb 2010 11:59 AM PST This does not apply to this situation. Office 2008 is a Universal Binary; it runs natively on PowerPC and Intel Macs. Rosetta is only used if Office 2004 (or Office v.X) is used on an Intel Mac. I believe there have been test reports indicating that Office 2008 is generally slower on PowerPC Macs than it is on Intel Macs. There is not really much that can be done about this. Even on Intel Macs, the speed of Office 2008 does not really blow you away...

| "Help' window won't close in Word and Excell Posted: 22 Feb 2010 08:39 PM PST On 2/22/10 8:43 PM, "Rafael Montserrat" wrote:Rafael net I just went to Word, and the same thing is happening. Office 2004 Student edition Ibook G4 1.5 MB ram 55 GB 14 GB available Hi, I can't close the "Help" window in Word and Excell. The red, yellow and green buttons on the upper left don't show. In that upper left corner, the last thing showing is the green arrow pointing to the left. I can't move the help screen other than to resize it using the bottom-right corner. Resizing only reduces the size of the help window toward the upper left corner, stopping when there's a small help window. This is not happening with other applications, not with Entourage Help, with Finder Help and with a few others I tried. One thing it just occurred to me to do is to restart the computer which is something I havent done in a while. Still, I'd appreciate some advice on this problem. This has never happened to me before. Thanks, Rafael ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, I solved this problem with Diane Ross offline. She had me go to System Preferences>Displays>Display>Resolutions: I had resolutions set at 1024x768. We went to 640x480, looked back at the screen. The letters were large and blurry. Went back to 1024x768, and the window was where it should be, moved over to the right, and showing the red-yellow-and green buttons. Thanks, Diane |
| Posted: 22 Feb 2010 05:47 PM PST far as I know, I don't use or need Silverlight now either. However, I do know that there are developments coming which will make this yet another add in which will have value. I saw this last week with a company I collaborate with and all their next versions which have "fancy" business graphics is based on Silverlight technology. They are using as they are immensely impressed and can do a lot of great things at low cost to them due to to the capabilities of Silverlight. It's not going away.Perhaps first for Windows world but probably ubiquitous soon. --rms www.rmschneider.com On 25/02/10 00:02, aRKay wrote: |

| Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac 11.5.7 Update Posted: 14 Feb 2010 12:38 PM PST I have had the same problem - using both the Auto Update program and then trying the download from Mactopia. In four different attempts, the computer (iMac Power PC with 10.5.8) hung with a spinning beach ball, and I had to force quit from the updater. Everything seemed to be going well, but the program hung on "looking for . . ." status. --- frmsrcurl: http://msgroups.net/microsoft.public.mac.office/Microsoft-Office-2004-for-Mac-11.5.7-Update |
| Update Path for 2004 11.2.3 -> 11.5.7 ? Posted: 12 Feb 2010 07:57 AM PST Well, actually it is :-) For each update there is a link for System Requirements. When you click it the previous update level requirement will be indicated as well as any other requirements for OS level, etc. As Michel replied, the simplest process is to use Help> Check for Updates in any of the Office apps. The necessary updates will be applied automatically in the appropriate order. It's also worth setting AutoUpdate to check on a periodic basis, such as Weekly or Monthly.

| Can't open Office programs on two computers at the same time Posted: 06 Feb 2010 08:13 PM PST From a legal & moral standpoint this is incorrect & misleading; On 2/8/10 2:32 PM, in article JaKIaxP2ac0, "com" <com> wrote: The EULA stipulates that NO Office app can be used on one Mac while ANY Office app is being used on another if the installations were done using the same license. IOW: Each license is for a *single* user. The allowance for installation on 2 systems is so that the single user can have Office installed on 1 stationary plus 1 portable system & further based on the 'expectation' that the one user shouldn't be using 2 systems simultaneously. It is neither a matter of "exact same programs" nor how the user "feels" :-) Regards |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac |
