[QUOTE="NSMacGuru, post: 1839919, member: 402209"] As the OP noted, much of those are tied to the old Microsoft Office install.

Do that, then check for 32-bit apps. Note that the FreeOffice alternative - which I'm using now almost exclusively - is a great substitute, though you may run into things that the free version doesn't handle, like text boxes.
