| Word My sons Apple has developed an odd problem. If he has a Word attachment and double click it opens up fine. If he tries to open Word as an application it fails. He has run a full scan with his AV and it has shown up not problems. He is using Mac OS X. Anyone know what the problem could be. -- Lynn Please remove spamtrap if replying via email      |

The first thing I would have him try is to exit all applications and start "Disk Utility" In Disk Utility, select the startup volume (presumably that's where the Word application is) and click "Repair Disk Permissions". This is something you should do from time to time and it often fixes niggling problems like this. Might work, and you probably are overdue to do it anyway. |
