  • opening of .doc under vista

    I'm unable to open a .doc in vista, either by an attachment or my documents folder. It opens in gibberish and unreadable. I have already downloaded a reader of words program that allowed me to read documents, but I couldn't edit them. I was able to open documents before but not now. Is it possible I can create a way to open them?

    Here is a link to download for free Microsoft Word Viewer.

    You can not edit with Word Viewer; you need the Word program to change:

  • Open doc attachents without Microsoft Office

    Every email client I've ever used automatically found WordPerfect to open doc files. I think that Thunderbird did this initially. But now he sends me to Microsoft which offers to sell me a Word.

    Why Thunderbird is not the default working program rather than with a Microsoft Word application?

    Or how can I tell it to do this?

    At the present time, I have to save the file on WP, then open it. Without hope.

    OK, so this has nothing to do with Thunderbird. It's your computer that has questionable settings.

    Now in the in the start menu control panel
    Open the default programs applet and select associate a file type or Protocol with a program
    Look for the entry of the .doc file and correct it.

  • Why can not open .doc attachments without having to pay for the Office?

    I get attachments for a lawyer to use land and other, and sometimes they will be .doc instead of pdf. I get that a lot of them to justify the cost of the Office ($6.99) per month. Why keep this office? Thanks.Phil

    I guess that's what you have configured in YOUR computer the software to open .doc files.
    You can download Open Office for free and open most of all the files that will open the office suite. Then, simply put YOUR computer to use instead of office.

  • Cannot open DOC files that are sent to me. I have wordpad and Notepad on my computer but you do not have Microsoft Office

    original title: DOC files

    Cannot open DOC files that are sent to me. I have wordpad and Notepad on my computer but you do not have Microsoft Office. Most of the time, I get a screen that says 'open' or 'save' the file and when I click on 'Open', this message disappears. Sometimes it opens, but the message is completely scrambled with letters and symbols.

    Cannot open DOC files in wordpad or Notepad. you will need a more advanced software suite. Try OpenOffice.org - it's free, and it supports the DOC format. But the best solution is to get Microsoft Office once and for all.

    Download OpenOffice.org: http://download.openoffice.org/contribute.html?download=mirrorbrain&files/stable/3.2.1/OOo_3.2.1_Win_x86_install-wJRE_en-US.exe. Note: Click on the link at the bottom that says "http://download.services.openoffice.org/files/stable/3.2.1/OOo_3.2.1_Win_x86_install-wJRE_en-US.exe" to download the program.

    This should solve your problem,

  • Windows 7 Homegroup: no Permission to open folders under network in NSC

    Hello

    I have set up a homegroup.  I have two wireless computers running windows 7.  I created a homegroup on C1, C2 saw and joined.  Now C2 appears in the residential group C1, but C1 can not open files under homegroup - files do not respond.  Under the portal network in the NSC, when I click on the shared files of C2 or C1, I get this error:

    "C2 is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.  The names of suppliers of specified network is invalid.

    However, C2 can open files of C1 under network.

    Anyone has an idea how I can give permission to C1 to open its files under network too and stop the above error?  Both computers run Mcafee updates and are approved.

    Thank you.

    All,

    Just FYI, I fixed it!    The problem was that I didn't have the installed on my card remote access client.  If this happens again, now you know!

    Take care.

  • Adobe InDesign does not open docs in Win 7

    I'll put up a new desktop PC which came with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium, V 6.17601 Service Pack 1, 64 - bit. I installed all the updates, which included SP 2 & 3.

    I then installed Adobe Creative Suite CS4 Design Standard (previously works without problem on Windows Vista).

    I didn't know by disabling applications before installing. I just put the CD of CS4 and all installed applications. No worries. All open applications. Photoshop works very well. Illustrator will not open due to problem of plugin. I ran across the Windows program compatibility tool and now it works fine.

    There are problems with InDesign and Adobe Acrobat 6 (which solves later).

    When I try to open previously created identity documents, I get the error message: "cannot open xx.indd. "Please update your plug-ins their versions the latest, or upgrade to the latest version of InDesign.

    I can't find anything on the upgrade of plug-ins for the most recent versions. How can I do this?

    I am currently with all updates of InDesign. I tried to run the application as administrator and used the compatibility tool (I tried to use the possible settings, each in turn, for Windows Vista, Vista SP1, Vista SP2 and XP (SP2 and 3).) I always get the same error message. I can create new InD docs, but not open all of my previous work.

    I even tried to change the plug-ins in the only place I could see under help > Configuration Plug-ins. I tried all 3 of the possible configurations: required, then all the, then Adobe, nothing done.

    Can someone help me? If this forum is not the right place for me to be, can someone please provide a feasible Adobe forum? Thank you very much.

    I thought that I had responded to this and closed the case. But maybe not. On the advice of the phone, we did uninstall and turn off the old CS. Then we installed CS4. He worked like a dream - no problem of compatibility at all.

    Thanks for your help.

  • Since installing open Office 4.0 I can't open .doc files on the fly, used to work before.

    I've recently upgraded to Open Office 4.0. Now can't open Thunderbird .doc attachments. Can I download the disk and open in Open Office Writer with food office or Windows Explorer in the usual way. I checked the tools/options/attachments and it is set to Open Office Writer. I think that's not relevant, but when I had Open Office 3.0, I've had writer defined as a separate program, but now I use just the master front-end server.

    Works OK with .pdf or .jpg files.
    

    just remove the entry from the windows of the spare part and then try and open a doc file. The entry will be recreated using your answers.

    I'm guessing that the existing Writer is not the correct writer.

  • When opening .doc website link, FF adds .docx file extention & does not open in Word 2010, with incorrect file format error. Pls Help

    I use Firefox v12 to open a hyperlink to a Web site that points to a door MS Word Document to download.

    Then, we are asked to open the file with MS Word (default), which is our installed version of MS Word 2010.

    Firefox then renames the file by adding a .docx file name for example filename.doc.docx. MS Word 2010 opens with the error "invalid file format", which is correct that Firefox has renamed.

    Is there a fix or a workaround for this?

    You can try to delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all the actions file.
