Microsoft Office Update Causes Mayhem. Again.

Mar 9, 2009

I had issues last November with what I suspected was a problem with updates for Office 2007 from Microsoft Update. After a Factory Image reinstall and reloading all my software, everything was humming along nicely. Then I discovered that my Office wasn't up to date and went over to MS update to pick up the security updates. I got 20 updates including SP1 for Office.

I have been installing them a few at a time and the last batch included a security update for OneNote 2007 KB950130 and tw security updates for Office KB951944 and KB954326. When I went to restart, the SAME THING HAPPENED AS IN NOVEMBER. Exactly.
The computer rebooted fine till it got to the point where I sign in and then somewhere in between the welcome screen and the desktop loading, it froze solid. The little tone that sounds when the desktop loads went into a stutter and then slowly faded.............

Microsoft Update: Sign On With 'Microsoft Update'

Mar 7, 2009

I am running Office Home and Student 2007 and have just run a diagnostic which suggests that my installation is not up to date and that I go to the Microsoft Update site and download any available updates. When I do, I am asked to sign on with 'Microsoft Update'. The idea is, I think, to combine this Microsoft Update with my Windows Update and let Office updates come though along with updates for Vista, IE, etc. I have posted here before with issues concerning updates including a fiasco I had last November which involved Office updates and am wondering, since Office seems to be working well at the moment (I was bored so I did a diagnostic ) should I bother with this or just leave it? Does Office have security issues like IE and Vista?

Configure Windows Update To Update All Microsoft Apps On Your PC

May 6, 2007

Microsoft Update was first released a few years ago for Windows XP and Server 2003 as a great way to update all of your Microsoft software installed on your PC. Not only would it update Windows, but it would also update Microsoft Office.  Are you a Microsoft Outlook user? If so, Microsoft Update would even download updated junk mail signatures when they are released.

In Windows Vista the new Windows Update application is no longer web-based. Microsoft has built-in the old Microsoft Update functionality into the new interface but you need to turn it on before you can use it.  Follow these steps to turn on updates for other Microsoft applications: ...

Oct 28, 2008

Microsoft to ‘webify’ Office (sort of)Written by Mary Jo Foley @ 9:09 am October 28th, 2008. Microsoft is finally doing what many have been clamoring for — making Web-based versions of its Office apps available — but in a different way than expected.

As part of the Office 14 release wave, Microsoft is going to provide“Office Web applications,” which it is describing as “lightweight versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote. These versions will allow users to access their documents via a Web browser on the PC, phone or other devices.

Microsoft is slated to make the announcement about its Office Web applications plans at the Professional Developers Conference (PDC) in Los Angeles on October 28 during the morning keynote. Read more at the Source: Microsoft to ‘webify’ Office (sort of) | All about Microsoft | ZDNet.com

Sending Pic = WinMail, Microsoft Office Outlet

May 17, 2008

I tried to re-set defaults so I would not receive mail in Office Outlook. When I go to send a general email to myself into Win Mail, that works just fine. When I go to send a photo thru Win Mail, the Office Outlook pops up and that is the only way I can send a receive photos. I just tried to re=set default on one of my account ( I have 4 emails acct on Vista).

When Office 2007 was installed, I inadvertantly set up Microsoft Office Outlook , when I already HAD WIN MAIL and Win Mail was working properly. Should I go into Microsoft Office outlook and DELETE this specific email accout? If I do, will it also delete it in WIN MAIL..as I dont want it to mess up my Win Mail, which seems to be working fine without picutres being sent.

Microsoft Office 2007 Can't Work 64bit

Aug 25, 2009

I just recently purchased a new laptop and it finally arrived today. I have a copy of Microsoft Office 2007 (I still have enough liscenses left for this laptop) which I was trying to install. I try to run setup and it attempts to load and then automatically closes and displays the following message:"Setup could not find any available products to install. Please contact your system administrator."

I am the administrator on this computer. When I try to launch setup on my other laptop that runs 32bit it works just fine. Before I bought the new laptop I checked to see if my software would work on 64bit and the internet said it would. Am I doing anything wrong?

Internet Explorer Or Microsoft Office Outlook Kept On Getting Stuck

Mar 23, 2008

I've been experiencing some problems with the Windows Vista Home Premium Edition lately. It all started when my Internet Explorer or Microsoft Office Outlook kept on getting stuck, and I would get a note that Internet Explorer / Outlook is restarting. I've been experiencing this problem in particular only with these two.

Next - as of yesterday, I started getting all these weird messages when logging onto familiar websites, such as Google and even Microsoft, about how there's a problem with the websites' security certificate, and that it's expired, so I have to click on "Continue to this website" every single time, and the worst part is that I can't logon to my MSN Messenger! The Error Code is: 80048820, and the Extended Error Code is: 80048412. I've tried working with their Troubleshoot, but nothing works! It's strange, because my Skype is working perfectly fine.

I don't live at home, so MSN is a very important communication tool for me. The third problem is that all of the usual Windows Updates, which are normally downloaded automatically, are not downloaded anymore, and I get a message that the Updates could not be downloaded.

Microsoft Office 2003/ Word: Automatically Shut Down

Jan 29, 2010

Microsoft office 2003 problem. When starting microsoft word on vista ulitmate, there seems to be a problem. This will automatically shut down, saying there was a problem and is shutting down. The other programs seem fine, Excel, powerpoint, etc. I havent a clue what this could be, has anyone else had this problem.

In the top right corner of microsoft word it will say "Finalizing Installation" and then after you type a couple of sentences it will shut down on its own. This is for a friend of mine, who had microsoft office put on when she bought the laptop of a friend, though she does not have the disk. so i wondered if this is an installation problem. Would this be some sort of copy of microsoft office 2003, that was put on for her She has only found this out now as her son needs to use word for school ( vista ultimate, 64 bit, sp2)
