I am so fed up with MS. I just bought Office 2011 Business for Mac. Installed just fine. Ran W, X, P, O just fine and I imported all my contacts. I opened and closed Outlook several times and even had restarted my computer and it opened just fine.
However, on 2nd day of used, in middle of using Outlook I got a message it had to rebuild the database. After that completed successfully, Outlook would not start up.
Spent hours in forums and: restarted system, loaded latest upgrade 14.0.2, restart again, ran Disk Utility to verify and repair permissions, restart, read more forums - nada.
Then I went to the MS site to contact support. I had to enter the product number. I went to the apps I could open, per the MS site instruction - they all had same product # - and entered it. It said it wasn't valid. Are you kidding me? There is no way to reach MS Support unless I now pay another fee. So I called my credit card company to dispute the charge.
I just wish computing was easy.
