• Word does not open.

  Thanks for the reply about Adobe not to open, but still, it does not address the problem of the word is not opening.    Removal of the existing Word files of the text so I can use them again don't go that far.

• With the new PC RoboHelp for Word does not open

  When I try to open RoboHelp for Word, you receive this error message:
  "The version of Microsoft Word you have installed is not supported." Please install an earlier version of Word before you run RoboHelp for Word. »
  
  With this new installation of PC, I always use Word 2003, which is the same version that I used previously. However, the operating system of the PC is now XP, while she was before Windows 2000.
  
  Any ideas?
  
  Thank you!

  Peter and Brian, thank you VERY much! RoboHelp for Word works now.

  Peter, your advice to install RoboHelp after installing Word was key to resolve this issue.

  For a quick summary of the result - our Help Desk uninstalled and reinstalled Outlook, Word and RoboHelp. Then they have reinstalled Word and Outlook; to change a setting 'Advanced' in outlook; to get the word to stop giving me the error messages, they need to redo my user profile. Then after that I was convinced that Word and Outlook work properly, this afternoon I installed RoboHelp X 5 through my CD and then downloaded and installed these two tasks on Adobe.com:
  -rho_x501.exe (for updating HR Office Word 2003 support)
  -rho13_x502.exe (for the Microsoft XP Service Pack 2 updated X5.0.2). help

  I am so grateful that RoboHTML and RoboHelp for Word seem to work well! Thanks again!

  Click the FixIt button in the Microsoft article

  Make sure that MS Word is not open, click the FixIt button, click on run and this program will set MS Word. When you open MS Word after running this program, you will be able to edit the files again.

  • Error messages

  Initially I run Office Diagnostics, or the office CD or breast, for example Word

• Illustrator does not open "an unknown error has occurred (-108)".

  I installed Yosemite a few weeks and it took several days to finally get things working again. Everything was fine for awhile, but now Safari try to continually reload pages, Mail crashes when I check new messages (it disappears without warning), Illustrator gives me "unknown error (-108)", just InDesign disappears when I try to start it, Word does not open, preview does not work in the finder. This is a major drawback and makes my pretty useless Mac.

• Client can not open my Word file

  I'm a writer to RESUME running OS X El Capitan 10.11.3.  I sent a resume in Word docx format to a customer who has an old Mac that works on 10.5.8.  She cannot open the file.  Then, I sent him back to him like a plain .doc file, but it can not open, either.  Is there a solution?  Or do I have to send the customer to the public library to use their computers?

  I am not technical and cannot think of anything else to do.  Thank you very much!
