1. cannot open office files on a network drive
Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel When I try to open a file on the network drive I get error messages. Word: "word cannot complete this operation because too many files are open" Powerpoint: "file may be corrupt" When I copy the file from the network drive to my computer, it opens without problems. Other programs open files from the network drive without error. Any suggestions how to fix this? thanks Zvety

3. Cannot open PowerPoint 2003 file in PowerPoint XP
We have a lengthy PowerPoint file. It was created in PPT 2007, but saved as a PPT 97-2003 file. The file works fine in PowerPoint 2003 and in 2007. However, when the file is opened with Office XP, the file opens, then flashes the "PowerPoint has experienced a problem, and has to close" error dialog box. We tried to use the 2003 Viewer, but that hangs after opening the file. I was under the impression that PowerPoint XP could handle files in the 97-2003 format, but this has thrown me. We have tried different versions of the file, and have done other troubleshooting/elimination problem solving. This has occurred on multiple computers, operated by different customers. It also happens on my computers, each of which has 2gb of RAM or more. One is running WinXP, while the other is running Vista. It appears as though this file, built with PPT 2007 and saved as a PPT 2003 file, cannot be opened on a machine running PPT XP. Any ideas? Time is of the essence. Many of our customers cannot upgrade to newer versions of Office right now, because they have government computers, and they have budgetary issues. We would like to offer them a file that they all could use! Thanks, Steve

5. Cannot insert movie from network drive
I'm using Windows XP and PowerPoint XP. I'm trying to insert a movie. When the movie file is stored on our network drive I get the following error: Cannot display this type of sound or movie. When I copy the movie to my C drive it works fine. I can play the movie using mplay32. I've read about some problems with long path names, so I tried copying the file to the root of the network drive and I still had problems. I really need to have the movie on the network. Does anyone have any ideas?

7. After installing Office 2008 SP2 and OpenXML updates Powerpoint cannot open .pptx files
Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel I upgraded to the latest version of Mac Office last night, along with the most recent OpenXMLConverter. Unfortunately, now neither version of PowerPoint (2008 or 2004) I have installed on my Mac can open any of the .pptx files previously created. I checked to see if Word could open .docx files and it was fine. Is anyone having similar problems? Any suggestions on how to resolve this? Dave
