Intel Mac :: Have Hundreds Of Microsoft WORD Docs And Just Updated To Lion - Bring Them Up Through Pages?
Feb 5, 2012
I have hundreds of Microsoft WORD docs, and just updated to Lion. I am informed they are no longer supported. What is the easiest way to bring them up through Pages?
I finally updated my software, first had to use Leopard, and then upgrade to Lion, which I just finished doing. I was checking everything out to see what changed....and now I can no longer use my Microsoft products!
how do i delete word and excel files i no longer need? i have tried to highlight and press delete and i have tried the drag and drop and that hasn't worked for me either?
At the moment I do not have Microsoft Office for my mac but I am looking into it as I will be going back to study soon and know I will encounter problems when it comes to transfering documents from my mac to a PC with Microsoft software. However I really love the mac application 'Pages' for personal projects so I am just wondering if I can still use it alongside Microsoft or I must give it up?
Well i just bought mac book pro with i7 processor, and my work requires a lot of arabic document reading amd writing i tried pages and word ma the letters are disjoint
All of a sudden Word and Excel won't open any more. I just get a message that says "Microsoft Word has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
i'm looking at moving over to the Mac in a couple days and i just need to know the best free Word Processor that can open .doc files. 99% of my docs made in Word are of the 97-2003 variety and not 2007's .docx.
I downloaded Lion onto my Mac, and now cannot open or access any of my Microsoft word documents or Power Points. Is there a fix for this? I need my documents.
When I try to save a document I get the following error message no matter how simple the document name, even if it is one letter:
This is not a valid file name.
Try one or more of the following:
* Check the path to make sure it was typed correctly. * Select a file from the list of files and folders.

27-ince, Mid 2011 Processor 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5 Memory 4 GB 1333 MHZ DDR3 Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1024 MB OS X 10.8.5(12F45) Microsoft Word for Mac 2011 Version 14.4.4 (140809)
Having just moved from Snow Leopard to Lion, i reinstalled iWork 08 and tried to carry on work..... . But after the reinstalls, the text in ALL .pages documents doesn't show anymore. I can highlight it and I can see it - but no amount of fiddling with text colour or background colour does the trick. Funnily enough, I can print the documents without any problems.
Since I updated the latest software on 2/2/12, Office For Mac doesn't work correctly. I can not open Excel or Word documents from Office. I cannot save a newly created document. However, I can open an exsisting document by going to the hard drive and double clicking the document I need. I can't save changes I make to the document once opened.
I updated to Lion os x and now can not use Microsft Office 2004, I cant open it or uninstall it, it just says powerPC applications are no longer supported.I have lost all emails on Entourage and can only retrieve emails via hostway that have been delivered today.
Trying to get help from Apple care is a nightmare as they need a serial number, which Lion being a digital download does not have one only web order number, which does not work when I put in serial box.
Microsoft Corp. next week will begin shipping the first copies of its much-anticipated Office 2008 productivity suite for the Mac, meaning there are just over three days left to take advantage of the company's "Super Suite Deal" that offers savings of up to $370 on the software.Come Macworld Expo on January 15th, Office 2008 for Mac will be available in three distinct editions ranging from an entry level $150 Home and Student Edition to a high-end $500 Special Media Edition.
Microsoft word and Excel freezes when we try to save. They had been working fine until now, and just developed this problem. We cannot use the programs.
I have a new iMac with MS Office for Mac 2011. When I go to finder and click on a document the computer opens all word docs. How do i stop this behavior?
I just downloaded OS X Lion and it says Ican't open the application Microsoft Word as Power PC applications (?) are no longer supported. I badly need my word docs!
i'm using mac os x 10.7.4 and have Office 2011. i can no longer open older documents (.doc) created with Microsoft Word 97... What can i do to get access to these files?
I created a word document all texts not any picture and saved it. Later on I came back and opened it all texts were changed to symbols.Is there any way how can I recover it to bring it back to normal.
I am unable to open Pages because it says "pages is being updated." But it doesn't finish updating and I can't seem to force quit and re-open the pages. The same message keeps appearing.
