Dec 9, 2009

Suddenly I'm not able to open any MS Word 2004 docs because I keep getting the message "There is not enough memory or disk space to run the converter EPS Import". There is over 78 GB (out of 148) of memory left on the HD and I haven't installed or changed anything at all. I've done a Disk Verification in Utilities (grasping at straws?) and all is well. I'm working with Mac OS X 10.4.11 and MS Word 2004.

OS X Mavericks :: Microsoft Word Stops Responding When Open A Document?

Sep 10, 2014

This has been happening on and off for ages, from half a year to a year. I have been trying to open a document for 4 hours now, it opens it and then freezes, i then have to force quit it and start over again. Some times i have left it for a while others i quit it after it stops responding. It is getting ridiculous now, i have also searched for ages on the internet, some problems are unrelated some seem related but the fixes don't work, I need to get word to stop doing this. 

I thought maybe it was because it keeps opening all my previous documents that I had open, i unchecked the box so it doesn't reopen windows and it still freezes but on this document instead. I do not have a clue what to do and I urgently need access to these documents, the documents aren't damaged, i was working on them before, and had this problem with many other documents that also weren't damaged. What should I do?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

PowerPC :: MS Word Docs Not Working On IBook (Classic Mode)

Oct 23, 2010

I have some MS word documents on my MacBook (intel) that I'd like to transfer to my white iBook. I tried plugging an enternal HD into the iBook (that HD contained the docs) but the iBook said that the HD wasn't compatible with it. So I went back on my MacBook and transfered the files from the HD to a memory stick.

However when I plugged that in and tried to open the files, MS word opened but the file did not. The word files are Word 2007 and on the iBook is an older OS9 version of Word. The iBook has Mac OSX panther on it, but the MS word opens in "classic mode". Any ideas on how I can get the docs to open on the iBook?

MacBook Pro :: Why Are Multi-page Word Docs "printing" To Separate .pdf Files

Feb 1, 2012

I run Microsoft Office on my MacBook Pro.  I routinely "print" Word documents to .pdf files.  My conversions to .pdf are now resulting in two .pdf documents rather than one multipage document.  For example, a two page Word document about puppies would be converted Puppies and Puppies.2 rather than just one 2-page .pdf file.  A 14-page file just also saved as two separate .pdf files; the first was only one page, and the second contained the other 13 pages.  This is a new problem as of tonight; I've never previously had any difficulty.  It's quite frustrating, and I can't seem to determine the cause.

Applications :: Word Docs Saved As Aliased To Applications Folder?

Aug 17, 2010

My dad was saving a bunch of Word docs on his Mac - he had one large file that he split up into twenty-some smaller files, which he then saved onto both his desktop and on a flash drive. Somehow along the way (neither he nor I had any clue how) but 4 of those files saved as an alias that point to nowhere. In other words, I can't find the originals anywhere on his computer or flash drives.

Even stranger is that one of those files aliased to the Applications folder. Keep in mind these are all supposed to be word documents. They all still end with .doc, but their type is an alias. I have no clue how they were created as an alias, but they were. It's probably a longshot without knowing where the original is located, but do any of you guys know how to possibly retrieve this?

OS X Mavericks :: Mail 7.3 - Have Default Where All Attachments Are Icons And Not Viewable Docs

Jun 20, 2014

When I attach files to Mail 7.3 it often displays the entire file, not the icon. I find this highly annoying. Yes, I can one-by-one right click on the document and instruct Mac to send the file as in icon only. But I would prefer Mavericks Mail to default to a convention where attachments are (View as Icons) and not to display entire document...
