Missing View menu and File menu

[umd16]

Version: 2008 Somehow I have lost both my view and file menus. I tried to right click on the existing tool bar, with and without option and control buttons but get nothing.

 

[John McGhie]

Which View are you in? (Bottom left corner of the Word window...)

Sorry, but if you don't provide enough information, we can't answer. We all
love a challenge, but if you make the game impossible, it becomes, well...
"Impossible".

Hi, Sorry for not providing enough info. I open Word and have a black document window. There is no File or View menu options on top. It reads, Word, Edit, Insert, Format, etc. I can change the view using the buttons on the bottom left corner but no matter which view I am in , I am always missing the File and View menus from the top. New info...have found a File Submenu under Format. Don't think that was always there! Cannot find View anywhere and therefore have no toolbar options, among other things. Thanks.

I have the same problem. I lost the file menu and therefore I can't see the save as button.
Help!

Control/Right-Click your Standard Toolbar, select Cutomize Toolbars & Menus,
go to the Toolbars page. Then click the *name* of the Menu Bar & hit the
Reset button, then OK out.

If that doesn't restore the missing menu item go back into the same dialog
but on the Commands page scroll in the Catagories list & select Built-In
Menus, then drag each missing menu item to it's rightful place on the Word
menu toolbar bar (not the main menu bar at the very top of the window).

 

[umd16]

I do not see a Customize Toolbar when I Control/Right-Click on the standard toolbar in WORD. I actually don't see anything other than the existing toolbar when I click there, Do I have my mouse settings wrong? I am using the standard mouse that comes with the iMac keyboard. I tried changing my right click button from primary to secondary with no change. Is there another way to access this customize toolbar option?

 

[CyberTaz]

Are you saying that Right-Clicking (Control-Click with a 1-button mouse) the
toolbar does *not* produce a contextual (shortcut) menu? You are using 2008
rather than 2004, correct?

If that's the case, the first thing I'd suggest since you haven't specified
is that you make certain that both OS X (whatever version you're using) and
Office (12.2.3 if Office 2008) are fully updated. Repair Disk Permissions
using the Apple Disk Utility app & restart your Mac.

You can also access the Customize Toolbars & Menus command from the Tools
menu.

Hello I have exact same problem on my wife¹s Macbook pro. My Mac mini
doesn¹t have this issue...even though both are using same ver OS, Word, etc.
I have tried your fixes described here and neither works to solve the
toolbars not appearing.

Also, I have been able to get them to reappear but the process to get them
back is painful. I have to reset them twice by turning off/on in document,
then they appear. But if I close the doc they disappear again and I need to
redo this whole process over again. This problem is recent and appeared
recently since doing latest OS update from Apple.

Please help...F

 

[John McGhie]

Hi Frank:

All this is telling us is that the content of some files on Linda's MacBook
is wrong, but we don't have enough detail to know which files. This can
happen if you don't clear the caches before upgrading to 10.6.2, or if you
do not resolve the font duplicates, or if you migrated/restored applications
from backup.

The following is the "Scorched Earth" fix.

Whatever it is, if it's caused by Office, this should fix it.

1) Track down all instances of pre-2008 Normal template on your computer,
and drag them to your desktop. The file is called simply "Normal" and has
no extension.

2) Find and drag the file Normal.dotm to your desktop. Unless you have
moved it, it should be in
/Users/~/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/

3) If the following files exist, Remove or rename them:

~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Word Settings (10)

~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Word Settings (11)

4) User/Library/Preferences/com.Microsoft.Word.plist

5) User/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office 2008 (the whole folder!)

6) Then Repair Permissions with Disk Utility.

7) Then re-install or reapply the 12.2.0 and 12.2.3 updates, in that order.

8) Repair permissions again, and it should work.

Be thorough with this, if you leave any of the old files behind Word 2008
will find them and won't replace them. Do it right and Word will construct
a new, clean, set of preferences and everything should now work.

Hope this helps

No offense Frank, but you do not have the "exact same" problem -- the
conversation here refers to missing items in the *menu bar* & has nothing to
do with *toolbars*

In your case, click the capsular button at the right end of the document
title bar to turn off the Minimize Toolbars 'feature' Apple has so kindly
provided without the benefit of identification or documentation.

Version: 2008 Somehow I have lost both my view and file menus. I tried toright click on the existing tool bar, with and without option and control buttons but get nothing.

There was an older thread on this where Bob walked the user through
cleaning up the system (probably a corrupted template file):

http://groups.google.com/group/micr...e.word/browse_thread/thread/29de760ad5be6c93/

A quick way to check: quit word, then hold down the shift key as you
start word again... (this prevents the user template from loading)

I just wanted to thank Bob for solving the problem I have been struggling with for ages... where the heck my toolbars in Word and Excel for the Mac keep disappearing to. It never occurred to me to click the little capsule thingie on the far right of the document, and this is the first mention of it I have seen. It's a feature, not a bug, right???!!!

There was an older thread on this where Bob walked the user through
cleaning up the system (probably a corrupted template file):

A quick way to check: quit word, then hold down the shift key as you
start word again... (this prevents the user template from loading)

Actually, I consider it a feature - and a rather useful one... The fact that
it is unlabeled, unidentified & undocumented, however, is what qualifies as
a BUG!

I've been struggling with a missing 'insert' menu for longer than I care to remember and thanks for this forum conversation I've now fixed it. Many thanks.

Somehow I have lost both my view and file menus. I tried to right click on the existing tool bar, with and without option and control buttons but get nothing.

Sorry, but if you do not provide enough information, we cannot answer. We all
love a challenge, but if you make the game impossible, it becomes, well...
