59 TopicsCan't find "Stocks" anymore.
I have Office 365 on my MacBook (I'm sure because I have checked "About" to make sure) and had developed a spreadsheet where I was able to pull stock data (end of day, hi, low, 52 week hi/low, etc.) into it and conveniently track my positions using the "Stocks" function in data types. It has disappeared from the data types (they building with columns symbol). I have done all the things suggested when I search for the problem solution, but can't crack the code. I've updated Office, but no help. Does anyone have a step by step solution. Thanks.97Views0likes2CommentsSlow start Office Mac
My Office applications for Mac (especially Word) bounce approximately 46 times in the dock, before temporarily freezing and then finally presenting a document to work in. So starting up takes more than 1 minute! When it's finally up and running everything works fine and smoothly, so it's just the start-up that drives me mad. Strange enough this is only the case after having shut down the computer or taking the computer out of the slumber-state. If I quit the Office app and then immediately start the app again, starting will only take 2 bounces or less. I have already tried several things (re-installing Office, re-installing MacOS, deleting caches, preferences, deleting unused fonts etc) but nothing has helped so far. Any other suggestions? I run Office 2019 on an iMac from 2017 with MacOSX Catalina. No problems with performance or speed of other applications.64KViews2likes28CommentsOutlook for Mac calendar reminder does not pop up when it needs to
Hey everyone, I'm encountering a peculiar issue with my MacOS X Samona and Outlook for Mac. Main goal is to make the Reminder pop-up appear and remind me of a meeting. The problem is as follows: I have a Google Workspace Account configured on my Outlook. I have a meeting in my Outlook calendar When the time comes for a reminder to pop up, nothing happens. When I focus Outlook (it's already opened ) and choose the calendar, the reminder pops up. My current workaround is to import all my calendars into the Mac calendar app, which sends me notifications for upcoming meetings. I reinstalled it completely, cleaned everything with App Cleaner, removed everything left off in the Library, and tested a bunch of suggestions in some forums. Nothing is still this issue. I've been using Outlook for Mac for over ten years and have experienced such a case for the first time. Currently, I'm searching for a way to troubleshoot it like: - Close all apps except Outlook - Open Apple "Console" app and filter by Outlook - Set a meeting after 1 minute and put a reminder "on startup" - Wait for that minute and try to catch something from the log - The Reminder GUI window does not pop up. Here is the log: https://pastebin.com/fHydj4Zd Software info: Microsoft® Outlook for Mac Version 16.86.1 (24061443) Licence: Office Home & Business 2021538Views0likes3CommentsUI for custom font and color schemes in Office for macOS
Hello, I am not 100% sure if this is the correct discussion space, but: until now there is still no user interface for macOS users to create a custom font or color scheme! On Windows it is so easy; on macOS you have to dig up weird directories and write an XML file. What gives? Best, Satrio209Views0likes1CommentWARNING for users of Dropbox (Beta) integration with Microsoft 365/Word
Anyone concerned with the "last modified date" of their files should NOT use the Dropbox (Beta) integration sent out by Dropbox earlier in the week. Once the Beta is installed in Word, it will alter the dates of every file you open, even if you do nothing to the file. If the last modified date was, say, June 27, opening the file merely to look at, making NO changes, the last modified date will change to the date you open the file. The problem occurs in Mac and Windows. This is a disaster for law offices, which count on the last modified dates in a number of ways.413Views0likes1CommentIssue with Automatic CC to Self in Exchange Account on Apple Mail
I am wondering if anyone has encountered similar issue. Iam using Mail (v16.0) on macOS Sonoma (14.5) on a 2020 iMac 27". I have several email accounts set up, including an iCloud account and an Exchange (Office 365) account. When I respond to an email using the 'Reply All' button from the Exchange (O365) account, my email address is automatically added to the CC field, which is quite frustrating. This issue does not occur when I use the 'Reply' button. In the Mail Preferences under Composing, I have "automatically cc: myself" unchecked. This problem is happening exclusively with the Exchange (O365) account. When I used Outlook with the same Exchange account, this issue did not occur.416Views0likes2CommentsCannot change master headline and body fonts separately in PPT for MAC
Working on a presentation for a client using the newest PPT on my MAC. I successfully added custom fonts to the list of available fonts in the Master Template (followed a tutorial). However, I now cannot format a "headline" font that is different than the "body" font on the master slide. No matter which text box I select on the master — headline, subhead or even creating a new text box, whatever font I choose from the master font list, changes it on every text box throughout the slide. I cannot choose a separate font for the subhead box or any text box for that matter (as I've already stated). Furthermore, If I click ANY text box and select "font" from the format pulldown menu, it ALWAYS reads "+heading". NEVER "+body" Even more? If choose a preformatted template that uses two fonts for the headline/body and attempt to change one, it again changes all of them. I'm astonished by the fact that I searched the web for hours and did not see any post regarding this issue. After "chatting" with MS support, I was told to come here. So here I am609Views0likes2CommentsActivation not working, stuck in offline mode
Hi there I'm not a tech, just a small business owner with MS365 Business Basic subscription, attempting to activate desktop apps on new users. The user I'm having trouble with is running MacOS Big Sur v11.7.10 on a 2014 Mac Air. Sidetone: I know it's not ideal to be using a 10 year old computer for this but we haven't had any problems using 365 logins on it previously (and since she only uses Outlook and Word it seemed like an unnecessary capex cost to update the laptop). When I initially added the user and set up her mailbox in Outlook for Mac, it worked for a short period, but then stopped sending and receiving. I noticed the software was offline - but on attempting to reactivate I received the below error message: AADSTS70008: The provided authorization code or refresh token has expired due to inactivity. Send a new interactive authorization request for this user and resource. It occurred to me that 2FA wasn't enabled on this user's account on setup, and it seemed this was causing an activation issue. So, on my own mac I logged into the admin portal to enable 2FA for this user. When I went back to her mac to attempt to activate the Outlook desktop app again (or any MS365 app for that matter) it finds her license and accepts the MS Auth Code from her device, but won't activate the software. It remains in 'offline' mode, per below image: Is this a cache issue? Or something simpler? I've googled a bit and seen I'm not confident going in and updating the registry to clear it. I've tried running the license removal tool (https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/download-and-install-or-reinstall-microsoft-365-or-office-2021-on-a-pc-or-mac-4414eaaf-0478-48be-9c42-23adc4716658#bkmk_signintodownload), but continue to get the same login acceptance but stays in offline mode. Is there something simple I'm overlooking, or a step that I should take to get things to reset? Thanks Sarah3.6KViews0likes1Comment
