[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 368040"] Glad it worked, bugjah! Well this means the corruption is living, alive and well in your old user account. I don't know which precautions you could take from preventing the corruption happening in your new account, mind you: I've never used Office or any M$ software on my Macs so can't help there. Now before you go and delete the old account, wait till someone walks you through this procedure. I'm about to leave for school in just a few minutes so don't have the time to research this for you, sorry). But I do know that if this was the main (first) account on your machine, don't think you can just delete and be done with it. There are certain precautions that need to be taken here. Till someone does help you out with this, just use the new account, be careful of not corrupting this new one with truckloads of old M$ files and you should be fine. :girl: And if you can, try either NeoOffice or OpenOffice to see if they couldn't replace adequately M$ Word or Office apps. Test them out and see if they work for you. I don't think they'd mess up your Mac like that... [/QUOTE]
