I recently got a Mac about 2 months ago. At first it was fine but recently I've been having some issues with it.
Sometimes when I close the lid on my mac I have issues when i open it. There is no display sometimes and i have to click on the power button to shut down my mac. I also have had issues at the login page. When i type in my password and click enter, nothing happens.

Have you added any apps since this happened or deleted anything?

That would be my suspect right there if you need a version of office that is free I recommend Libre Office and Neo Office is only 10.00.
If your Mac is only a couple of months old then it should have iWork on it.
The problem with pirated software is it can and usually has bugs in it not to mention its stealing software something no one in this forum approves of, buy the programs you need or look for free legitimate alternatives.

I like Oynx for Mac it will usually help keep it in order use the auto and don't mess with the other settings unless you know what you are doing.
Also if you don't shut the Mac down and use sleep for a day or so it will run scripts which helps.
Look in your downloads folder and make sure there is nothing there you did not ask for also if you have not done so make sure in Safari >preferences > general > down at the bottom make sure the box IS NOT checked open safe files after downloaded.
Use Software Update and make sure you have all the updates that have been issued of late and last but not least re-boot even if it does not require I find it helps.
