Office .v X update problems
Authored by: fwiffo on Nov 06, '03 04:10:22PM

Has anyone had problems installing the 10.1.2 update after doing a clean install of panther and Office .v X? I get to the "Gathering Information" message and then it just hangs.

Office v. X updated without problem
Authored by: Norm Nager on Nov 06, '03 10:26:30PM

After an erase-and-clean install of OS 10.3, I installed from my original Office X CD, then updated from the Combined Office Updater (which came out in April 2002), then 10.1.2 (which gave me no problem during its installation), then 10.1.4 and finally 10.1.5. I ran Repair Permissions before installing Office X and then after each of the updates. Hope that helps.

Same problem: 10.1.2 update hangs

I have the same problem. I installed Office on my 15" powerbook that came with Panther pre-installed, and then I tried to update to 10.1.2. The updater usually hangs on the gathering info stage. One time it made it to the next screen and then hung there. I tried repairing permissions as the previous reply suggested, but that didn't help.
