Open Office, NOT Compatible
May 26, 2008
Mac and Linux and is free. It handles graphics in multipage documents better than MS Office. It can read and write many formats including its own Open format as well as all version of MS Office except the newest. Few business users save in that new Office format because it is NOT compatible with other versions of MS Office. You can download and try is for free and it does NOT have any of that stupid copy protection. And it is more secure. And you never have to pay for all future upgrades.

What is the simplest way to have Open Office open any type of Microsoft Office file?
My Office trial is over and I'm too cheap to pay for it.
I tried using the Default selector, but I was wondering if there was a method quicker than going through each extension one by one.
I use Home premium x64.

How can I get my browser to choose the spread sheet from Open Office instead
of Microsoft Works' when trying to open an XLS file? As it stands the latter automatically opens it.Windows Vista Home Premium SP2, 32 bit and IE 8.
The reason: the file doesn't open properly as is, IOW a calendar shows up in sections of four and incomplete as such.

Vista Business plus Office 2007 sometimes causes problems - particularly with Search/Replace - that MS cannot resolve. A friend uses Open Office on his XP machine for certain functions that create difficulties with MSOffice. Documents apparently move back and forth easily, retaining formatting. Have readers here had success with Open Office on Vista?

Since I upgraded to IE8,
1)I can no longer open MS office attachments such as .doc or excel in Windows Mail
2) Many images on websites are no longer viewable, just show as a box with a red x. I click on the "compatability" button, but that doesnt work with either. I tried unclicking the dont allow attachments button, didnt work.

I have Vista Home Premium and a brand new Dell Laptop. I've just bought Office Ultimate 2007. Everytime I open outlook or try to take any action, I get "please wait while windows configures microsoft office ultimate 2007". it takes a good while before it goes away. I have cleared the registry. I have uninstalled the previous trial office. I have uninstalled ultimate and reinstalled. Turned off the User security. looked at loads of threads

Without a doubt the worst windows version ever made! Microsoft were finally on track with windows XP pro but they had to go and screw it up by bringing us vista! Nothing works, nothing is compatible every program supposedly compatible seizes or shuts down! It is constantly vulnerable to viruses! There's no end to the complaints I have about this crappy version of windows! Wake up microsoft because you're just soft now and nothing micro about it!

Originally, I had Office 2003 installed in my computer, & a trial version of 2007 that had already expired.
Today I installed a full version of Microsoft Office 2007, without removing any of the other two versions from my computer. I realized that it seemed to automatically remove the older version. I`m not bother about it not being there, as I got the new version, but I wonder if this is an automatic uninstalling that Office does, or if the version is still there but I can`t see it, as I would like to remove it properly if it`s still somewhere in my computer.
I checked in Control Panel & the only thing I can see is "Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007", the full version I just installed, & everything that come with it. No 2003 anywhere.

I know you can do this document-by-document by opening each document individually and clicking "Upgrade" or whatever, but is there a way to convert all your Office documents at once?

I downloaded the Cyrsis demo, which worked on my XP machine in the past, yet Im getting some strange results with vista.
After i install it, i cant find it anywhere, its like its not installing even though it appears to install and i dont get any error messages.
There is nothing in my "all programs" or program files folder to indicate it even exists.
Ive reinstalled it mulitple times with the same results.

I am trying to find an external hard disk drive that is fully compatible
with Vista x64.
I purchased a Western Digital My Book Premium II drive and it doesn't work
properly even though their web site states that is Vista compatible. I
contacted them and they fairly ridiculed me for assuming that that meant it
would be compatible with 64-bit Vista. I can still use the drive to
actually copy files to but there is no 64-bit driver so the bundled software
doesn't work and Vista keeps telling me that it needs to install a driver
for this device.
I contacted Seagate about their FreeAgent Pro product and they claim it
should work even though there is also no 64-bit driver for it. I don't
trust that statement after my experience with the WD drive.

I just downloaded Men of War and I go to install it but it says it's not compatible. I go to compatibility mode and that doesn't work either. Turns out it's only compatible with xp sp3 and vista 32 bit. But I have read posts of people saying they are playing on vista x64, but they don't say how.

When I use the 64-bit IE it periodically asks if it can install flash. I go to do it and the adobe says they don't have flash compatible with 64-bit IE. Has anyone found a way around? I really want to use IE64 with a flash player. Adobe can't be the only game in town...i found an alternate pdf viewer called FoxitReader.

I am in the process of replacing my current PC (with Windows XP) for a new upgraded PC with Windows Vista. My concern is that all my old software in my current PC (with XP) may not be compatible with Windows Vista. But I am told Microsoft has come out with Vista SP1 that should take care of all compatibility. Is this true? Has anyone had any problem with Windows Compatibility in installing old software from XP into Vista?

When downloading games, how can I tell if they're compatible with Vista 64-bit that I have on my new laptop? If I buy a new game and the box says it's compatible with Vista, does that also mean it's OK with the 64-bit version?

I have a Microsoft Window Vista Home Premium Laptop. I received a HP Photosmart A616 Printer for Christmas and it is not compatible to my Vista. The paper work that came with it says go to www.hp.com/go/windowsvista. I want to be able to print picture off my computer, not only from a memory card.

Everything is working fine except for the sound which, even though I have put it to maximum is practically inaudible. Is it possible that she needs new speakers? the ones she has look very elderly! I have checked that they are plugged in ok and enabled.
