Re: Word is a lone blue apple / no task bar / will not open

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Just make sure your "tekkie" is a *Mac* tekkie rather than a Windows
*tekkie*;-) and don't hesitate to have him pop in for clarification if
needed.

Hi:

I am going to give a lift to our technical friend who has a broken auto
wither today or tomorrow into our studio here to look at this thread + my
imac. I am printing out this entire thread for him to review. My boss
thinks that I can do the back up as well as reinstall WORD, but I have the
impression from these responses that 1) reinstalling WORD could cause harm
and 2) our tekkie must go through all of this by himself, so as to exclude
me
from responsibility.

Thank you for all of the input and now an expert will perform the
operation!

Best Regards to ALL OF YOU WHO HELPED!

exclusively for Mac OS X. 11.0.0 is in the "About This Mac" drop down for
Applications. All Microsoft Office software has been fine since long
before
I sat at this imac last May.

I will attempt to perform either/and/or the replacing/renaming the Normal
template as well as the Preferences files if I can see that I can do this.
I
have no idea how to back up in this imac.

If I do figure out how to replace/rename Normal Templae and Preference
Files,
is my next step to locate my OSX Source disk and follow your instructions
by
going into Disk Utility again? Is my source Disk the icon for the HD, or
is
a separate software disk lying around the studio somewhere, like the
Microsoft office disks?

This is all owned by my boss, but I am the officec manager, so I should be
okay with this.
Thank you so much!

First question: Do you have your user files backed up? I don't mean to
alarm
you, but it's always better to be safe than sorry:-) If not, that's the
