1. The spellchecker still crashes Outlook even after several updates.
2. When I select a message and delete it jumps to the older already read message below it NOT the new and unread above it in the inbox - which is obviously the one I would want to read next! Apple's Mail got this functionality down when reading incoming messages. The Microsoft Office Outlook method is just plain useless and quite frankly stupid.
I don't know what these guys are doing in this browser has stopped being good for a while now. Flash or anything Javascript is slow as molasses and jerky. Major thumbs down. Sticking with Chrome.
Still no pref for auto spell-check before I send an email. Crash on "manuallly induced" spell-check... No option to color folders in the sidebar... Seem they have lazily worked on 1 or 2 features that were easy to do for "the team". People pay for this software $150! Don't we deserve better MS?
Installer keeps giving me errors "can't replace file bc "pkginfo" is in use.." or something to that effect... if I drag it into the apps folder again it goes OK. Kind of annoying though. I'm also kind of tired having to update every week!
Bloatware. Bundled crap softwae nobody needs eating up precious storage space. When will these devs wake up that we don't want stupid "bundeld software" we need ONE good application that's lean and mean and fast and does what it's made for and does it well. Slow UI / stupid useless animations. Ejects discs when completing some task (eraseing disc) and no way to set this for the disc to remain in the Mac - more slowing down tasks that everyday users do. Idiotic devs writing illogical moronic features and no way to turn the darn things off - prime example of blind and deaf devs not listening or conducting usability tests with their expensive apps. Puhlease!
Really really slow - froze on me as well... takes forever to start up and then ask for a PDF document that then it converts to an RTF text file. If one has Acrobat Pro (and Preview for that matter) one can do the same thing although maybe not as fast. You can just select text and copy-paste it into a document (Word, Pages, RTF, etc.)
I use this widget every day practically and find it simple and functional. Highly recommend it. Design wise, UI-wise it could be a tad better, but it works. :-)
I would advise everyone to back up with Time Machine before the update, or just the "Microsoft Office 2008" folder in your Applications folder. After I got highly unstable applications from an update that professes to "improve stability" I restored my entire Office folder with my old apps in it and everything works fine again. Thanks to you Microsloth!
Copying any text in WORD locks up computer for several seconds, the larger the text volume the longer the wait. Computer locks up with fans starting up loud to cool processor (G5 - MAC OSX 10.4.8) WHY? Incredibly annoying when trying to work on several pieces of text.
