I have 27 copies of office installed in our company. One person is
conficting with another user. I looked at the product ID number to try
to determine which set of install disks I need to re-install from, but

Have installed everything ok, but when I get to stage 4 of the
installation process, 'Product Key', after I type the 20 long product
key and click 'finish', a message pops up from the top stating 'Please

After installing Tiger on my iMac G5, I get a message about corrupt

I posted here several weeks ago and this problem couldn't be resolved
then -- not entirely, anyway. I'm trying again because I haven't been
able to find anything more anywhere else, and there WAS one thing I did
right that I would like to duplicate -- plus, I'm pretty sure I can

I can't install Microsoft office onto my  Windows 2000 professional operating
system. As it is installing, about a 3rd of the way through, error message

Can you help or advise?.

Does anyone know if MS is planning a version of Onenote for OS-X? I have
numerous Onenote files from my XP platform that I am unable to migrate or
import to the Mac for lack of a compatible application.

TIA,

I have just installed Office 2004 after upgrading to OS 10.3. But I
can't use any of the programs. I get a message along the lines of *an
error was encountered* every time I try to open Word - or anything
else. I've re-installed Office several different ways - the whole thing

Since I've had Entourage X (part of Office X) for Mac, I've been unable
to print e-mails. Instead I get an "An unknown error (-50) occurred".
This problem has followed me through several versions of OS X and is
still present in Tiger. The printer is a Canon i9100 and it prints well

When I went to use the installer, it failed to complete several times (no
error, messages, it just quits after hitting "finish" button).  As a result,
not everything installed correctly.  I cannot currently use spell-checking
because the proofing tools are not installed.  After ...

In attempting to use the autoupdate feature after installing office 2004, I
get a dialog that says that it's not installed, and would I like to do so.
I say sure, why not, and click the OK, but even with the CD in place the
autoupdate installation fails as it (auto update)  can't ...
