[QUOTE="word_matters, post: 1623479, member: 338440"] I have an old iMac. It is operating OS X, version 10.9.5. I have upgraded the RAM to 2 gig. Should be more than enough. The MS Word is Word for Mac 2011 and I'm up to date on all updates. It is version 14.4.6. I have never tried to open this computer in safe mode. I thought that this was only available on a PC? The document is very large I will admit, as I was scanning pages of other stuff into it over days. I think that the file got corrupted. I have other documents that are nearly 200 megs and it opens them now no problem. This very big doc is giving me a ridiculous error message, saying that since its over 32 megs it can't open. That's why I figure that the file got corrupted. Doesn't Microsoft have a document recovery program? I have seen it turn on several times lately (I should have not ignored that). Thanks for guidance.
