[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1445354, member: 46727"] OK, now that I know what you're trying to do, we can fix the problem. First you need to unhide your user library folder which is hidden by default in Lion and Mountain Lion. Follow these steps below: Open your terminal application. Applications, Utilities, terminal.app Type the following in the terminal: [B]chflags nohidden ~/Library/[/B] and press enter. After that, exit the terminal by typing "exit". Your user library folder will now show up in the Finder. Next, open your Finder and navigate to here: Macintosh HD/Users/your user name/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/My Templates/ You can remove all the templates listed there except do not remove the "normal.dotm" template as that is needed by Word. I suggest instead of deleting those templates that you move them to your desktop and keep them there for a bit to make sure they're not needed. [/QUOTE]
