312 Topicspage numbering a document in word
Hello I am trying to automate page numbers in my document. I have removed all section breaks— but one. I cannot figure out the sequence of commands to “link to previous”— when I do it, it does not work. I must be clicking the wrong things because it won’t paginate. It is a long document so I really need the pages numbered. Any help in solving this would be much appreciated.1.1KViews0likes9CommentsHow do I make the cursor visible while typing in word
Hi there, I am using office 365, word version 2310. I just noticed when I begin typing, even one letter, my cursor disappears immediately, and I can only get it back by moving my mouse or press Ctrl. Previously, I think I could see my cursor while typing. Would it be possible to make my crusor visible while typing? I've tried the operations below: 1. turning on/off the 'smart cursoring'. 2. activate/unactivate 'hide pointer while typing' in 'pointer options'. 3. uninstall and reinstall office 365, repair/reset office 365. 4. turning off the HDR settings. 5. changing the display scale in 'display settings'. 6. lauching word in a safe mode. 7. changing the regional settings. None of them works. The funny thing is, when I am typing in Chinese characters, my cursor does not disappear at all, but even if I type one single English letter, the cursor disappears immediately. Additionally, I found the same behaviour when typing in notepad of windows. I know it might be a FEATURE to hide my cursor while typing, but is there any possible solution that I can make my cursor visible while typing? I just want to see my cursor. \ Thanks113KViews0likes13CommentsMarkup Panel appearing with every word document. Comments column now in some weird thing.
Good day, I am so confused I do not even know how to explain all the issues. 1) Opened a word document today that I closed yesterday. Opens up with some thing called a Markup Panel. Go to review and select no markup. Fine for now, but then appears every time I reopen the document, and all other documents. 2) Up until today, my comments were nicely formatted in a column on the right side of the screen. Now they are in some thing called a "reviewing panel" which is terribly formatted and located in the wrong place until I drag to to the right side. Is this something I have caused or some Word Update (God, I hope it is not the latter.) 3) Also, the little indicators next to the lines where the comments are located are no longer present, so the only way I know there is a comment on that line is by clicking on the comment in the stupid "reviewing panel" How do I get back to what I had yesterday? Thanks so much for your help. DaveSolved81Views0likes3CommentsVisible Margins
As a heavy user of Publisher I am learning my way through Word in view of the upcoming cancelation of Publisher. One of the first things to strike me is the inability to make margins visible. Anyone found a way? I have tried text boundaries but it does not really help. I know Word is not a graphics package but I do not see much else within Office 365. A pity there is not another MS product to fill the gap! Or is there?Solved112Views0likes4CommentsHow to fix "upload pending" error message in Microsoft word
I dealt with this frustrating issue for over a year, but here's how you can fix it. Example image: How to fix: 1. Make sure Finder is open and all office apps are closed, including Microsoft Word. 2. Click on "GO" in the top bar. 3. Once the drop down menu descends, hold down the OPTION key on your keyboard. You'll see that a folder called "LIBRARY" appears. Click on "LIBRARY". 4. Once inside "LIBRARY", click on a folder called "CONTAINERS." 5. Scroll down until you find a folder called "com.microsoft.Word". 6. Once you've found it, delete "com.microsoft.Word" off your computer. 7. Now, reopen Microsoft Word, and make sure the upload pending error message is gone. It should be, and you should now be able to delete the file if you so choose. Also, if you're experiencing this problem with Excel and/or Powerpoint, you can probably fix it the same way. You'd just have to delete "com.microsoft.Excel" and/or "com.microsoft.Powerpoint" respectively, instead of "com.microsoft.Word". All the steps leading up to that would remain the same. I really hope this helps other people who are dealing with this problem. And if for some reason it doesn't work for you, reach out to Microsoft support while signed into your Microsoft account and get into a chat room. Chatting with a specialist was the only reason I was able to figure this out in the first place.31KViews0likes2CommentsMicrosoft office 2007 stopped support - lifetime key
Hello, I purchased Microsoft Office Small Business 2007 with a lifetime license. It used to work fine, but now it doesn’t run with Microsoft 365. I’d like to know: Did Microsoft completely stop supporting Office 2007? Is my license key valid only for Office 2007, or can I get a new key for Microsoft 365? Since it was a “lifetime” license, what options do I have now that it no longer works? Only purchasing 365?128Views0likes4CommentsAuto populate word document
Hello, I would like advice on the best and most user friendly way to setup an auto populate a sheet for my work. I am looking that when a value is typed such as 1.1, it will populate three different areas of the sheet I need done. I have 71 codes that need to be recognized. At the moment I have been using {IF{REF BookmarkName} “1.1” “content”}. I now have this 223 different ways based upon each section of my sheet. But we can do mail merges and would like it a little bit more clear on where to enter the code. I appreciate your advice and feedback on a method that would be best for this. Thank you.77Views0likes2CommentsWord 365 Hyphenation at Bottom of Page
We have a client that prepares their content using a Word template and fonts we've developed. They work at getting the justification they think is optimal. We then take the files and paginate them inserting the artwork they've provided. Up until Office 365 (yes, we delayed the move as long as possible for many unfortunate reasons) this has been a good system. But now with 365 I can't get Word to hyphenate at the bottom of a page or column. This, of course, causes trouble as we move text lines along during pagination because lines that previously did NOT end a page or column are now doing so, causing the word at the end of that line no longer hyphenate, causing the rest of the paragraph to re-hyphenate. Before I jump through hoops to add things to the template to help mitigate this, I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something. Is there really no way to get Word to hyphenate across pages and columns?! Thanks for any insight. KenSolved175Views0likes6Comments
