[QUOTE="kkspade, post: 1340980, member: 228633"] [b]same issues[/b] I've been having the same issues. I'm in law and work in MS Word on a regular basis in fairly large files (two to three 50+ pages files open at once). I never used to have this problem with MC word on Mac but since I upgraded to Leopard and to MS Word 2011, it crashes at a MINIMUM of once per week. Luckily, the auto recovery is pretty good and I don't lose as much work as I did on 07-08 version in Snow Leopard which didn't crash nearly as much as this version does but, when it did, it crashed my world with it! Many times, autosave didn't work and I lost hours of work, which is what originally prompted me to upgrade both systems. However, that doesn't change the fact that the crashing that occurs on a sometimes daily basis and it's a huge pain and takes 5 minutes to recover! Although I've never been a huge fan of Pages and know all the ins and outs of Word am not keen on learning a new system, MS Word reminds me daily of why I don't own a PC. If anyone has any tips, I'd love to try to figure this stuff out! [/QUOTE]
