Re: No Office programs will launch anymore. Why?

Hi Clem -

Hopefully reinstalling won't be necessary, but what is necessary is that you
post a NEW message rather than REPLYING to another :-) Same *symptoms* don't
dictate same *problem*.

You'll need to include all specifics about your current exact level of
Office & OS X as well as your type of Mac configuration. Additionally,
describe exactly what you were doing at the time of the crash as well as the
exact wording of any error message that may have appeared at the time (as
accurately as you can recall).

In the meantime, shut down your Mac for a few minutes then try launching
Word directly from the icon in your Applications folder rather than using
the Dock icon. Also try dbl-clicking a Word document icon in a Finder window
to see if that launches the program.

Hi,
My Microsoft Word (office 2008 for mac) has just crashed and will not
relaunch with the same failure message as in this thread. I tried repairing
permissions without success. Is there a definitive way to repair this problem
or do I reinstall everything like this irchamandy did? I urgently need to fix
and use Word. Can anyone help please? Regards, Clem

I posted this same message in Powerpoint because it stopped launching. I now
realize it is ALL office programs that have stopped launching after having
run fine for 4 months. Every time I try to launch a program, it crashes,
giving me the crash error message and the option to relaunch. I keep
relaunching but they keep crashing. I tried reset and relaunch but they still
crash. here is what the crash summary says:
