Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel Email Client: Exchange I only use entourage on a regular basis and once in awhile word or powerpoint. Almost every time I reboot my mac entourage (or any other ms office app) crashes with a message "Microsoft Entourage has encountered a problem an needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" A restart of the app causes a crash as well. Clicking on 'More Information' in the error dialouge box shows this: Microsoft Error Reporting log version: 2.0 Error Signature: Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS Date/Time: 2008-10-06 09:45:23 -0600 Application Name: Microsoft Entourage Application Bundle ID: com.microsoft.Entourage Application Signature: OPIM Application Version: 12.1.2.080729 Crashed Module Name: unknown Crashed Module Version: unknown Crashed Module Offset: unknown Blame Module Name: unknown Blame Module Version: unknown Blame Module Offset: unknown Application LCID: 1033 Extra app info: Reg=en Loc=0x0409 Thread 0 crashed: # 1 0xffff1259 in ( + 0x00000000) # 2 0xffff086e in ( + 0x00000000) # 3 0x00fd6d56 in _McpRegisterFontUser + 0x000005D0 (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x00079d56) # 4 0x00fd88d1 in _McpGetFontMenuATSUIFontFamilyWtz + 0x00001847 (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x0007b8d1) # 5 0x00fd90b0 in _McpRunFontMenuIdleTasks + 0x0000005C (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x0007c0b0) # 6 0x00fd9126 in _McpRunFontMenuIdleTasks + 0x000000D2 (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x0007c126) # 7 0x00fd9160 in _McpGetFontMenu + 0x00000020 (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x0007c160) # 8 0x0107aa1e in _McpPrepareFontMenuWithOptions + 0x00000020 (MicrosoftComponentPlugin + 0x0011da1e) # 9 0x01515af0 in UFontMenu::UFontMenu() + 0x0000008E (EntourageCore + 0x000d7af0) # 10 0x01515bda in UFontMenu::Initialize() + 0x0000002C (EntourageCore + 0x000d7bda) # 11 0x0001b8e9 in __mh_execute_header + 0x0001A8E9 (Microsoft Entourage + 0x0001a8e9) # 12 0x0129e70e in LApplication::Run() + 0x0000002C (PowerPlant + 0x0006f70e) # 13 0x0001a2cc in __mh_execute_header + 0x000192CC (Microsoft Entourage + 0x000192cc) # 14 0x00002eee in __mh_execute_header + 0x00001EEE (Microsoft Entourage + 0x00001eee) # 15 0x00002e15 in __mh_execute_header + 0x00001E15 (Microsoft Entourage + 0x00001e15) X86 Thread State: eax: 0x0003a000 ebx: 0x000000ff ecx: 0x001e9220 edx:0x00040000 edi: 0x22384000 esi: 0x1a9bdf7a ebp: 0xbffff41c esp:0xbffff410 ss: 0x0000001f eip: 0xffff1259 cs: 0x00000017 ds:0x0000001f es: 0x0000001f fs: 0x00000000 gs: 0x00000037 eflags:0x00010206 Thread 1: # 1 0x94ca15c6 in _signgam + 0x94B01D86 (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x000015c6) # 2 0x94d2a29b in _signgam + 0x94B8AA5B (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x0008a29b) # 3 0x0219dd7d in _MerpCreateSession + 0x00000B07 (merp + 0x00002d7d) # 4 0x0219d3e5 in _MerpCreateSession + 0x0000016F (merp + 0x000023e5) # 5 0x0219d46c in _MerpCreateSession + 0x000001F6 (merp + 0x0000246c) # 6 0x0219df25 in _MerpCreateSession + 0x00000CAF (merp + 0x00002f25) # 7 0x94cd26f5 in _signgam + 0x94B32EB5 (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x000326f5) # 8 0x94cd25b2 in _signgam + 0x94B32D72 (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x000325b2) X86 Thread State: eax: 0xffffffa6 ebx: 0x94d190bf ecx: 0xb00a0a5c edx:0x94ca15c6 edi: 0x00000061 esi: 0xa7c45fe7 ebp: 0xb00a0ac8 esp:0xb00a0a5c ss: 0x0000001f eip: 0x94ca15c6 cs: 0x00000007 ds:0x0000001f es: 0x0000001f fs: 0x0000001f gs: 0x00000037 eflags:0x00000202 Thread 2: # 1 0x94ca868e in _signgam + 0x94B08E4E (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x0000868e) # 2 0x94cd336d in _signgam + 0x94B33B2D (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x0003336d) # 3 0x94321460 in __CMProfileID + 0x9424E33C (ColorSync + 0x00033460) # 4 0x94333d92 in __CMProfileID + 0x94260C6E (ColorSync + 0x00045d92) # 5 0x94cd26f5 in _signgam + 0x94B32EB5 (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x000326f5) # 6 0x94cd25b2 in _signgam + 0x94B32D72 (libSystem.B.dylib + 0x000325b2) X86 Thread State: eax: 0x0000014e ebx: 0x94cd338d ecx: 0xb0122e7c edx:0x94ca868e ed
More Info: Sometimes changing the permissions like this makes it work: cd Library/Preferences chmod -R 755 ./Microsoft However most of the time I need to delete the Microsoft dir. Even if changing perms does work, I need to go through it again next time I reboot. Any thoughts ?
The Microsoft Component Plugin shows the version installed. Have you modified Office or used a workaround to install? I would reinstall: Quit all Microsoft applications (Easy way: log out/in with Shift key down to disable any startup items.) Drag the Microsoft Office 2008 folder to the Trash. Empty Trash. Reinstall Office 2008 from your original installation disk.
