Mac Forum / Applications / Word / March 2008Word 2004 freeze while on internet
I've noticed that if I shut down the computer by pressing Control- option-command keys and the eject key while on the internet AND Word 2004 is open, Word stops the shutdown process. I have to force quit it in order to complete the shutdown process. If I manually quit word before hitting those keys, there is no problem. I don't remember this being a problem before 10.5.2 but I could be wrong. Any suggestions. (I've deleted all Microsoft and Word plist preferences but that didn't work. Would you have been "copying" from the Internet into Word? If you had, Word would be holding a reference on the clipboard to the web page (in case you wanted to paste again). That would do it. And that would be a bug :-) Hope this helps On 18/3/08 3:08 PM, in article e18ab64f-fcec-4843-b9c4-7cb36d527b3f@s8g2000prg.googlegroups.com, > I've noticed that if I shut down the computer by pressing Control- > option-command keys and the eject key while on the internet AND Word [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > wrong.

If I use an application launcher to do the same, Word quits. But if I try and use the Control-option-command-eject key to shutdown the computer, Word will not quit. |
