Office365 for Mac So, I've reinstalled twice and same issue. If I have Word (or any software from the package) open, it will only open files from my desktop, not my server, and then it will only open one. If I try to open a second file it will put up a dialog box that says, 'Additional permissions are required to access the following files:' When I follow the prompts to select the file, and Grant Access, Word then tells me that it can't open the document because the user does not have access privileges.
Is this a Word issue or a Mac permissions issue? It only happens with Office apps.
Hi MeasureCJ, Based on your description, this is a known issue in Word 2016 for MAC. I suggest try this method and check the method of Joshua A.
Solomon: 'click 'cancel' 3 times. The dialog will go away. Open a blank document. From the 'word' menu, select 'preferences.' Select 'spelling & grammar.' Click the 'Dictionaries.' That stupid dialog box will pop up.
Microsoft Office 2016 - Unmistakably Office, designed for Mac. The new versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote provide the best of both worlds for Mac users - the familiar Office experience paired with the best of Mac. Office 365, Office 2019, Office 2016, Office 2013, Office 2010, Office 2007, Office for Mac 2011, and Office for Mac 2008 applications can open your documents without any additional action. Customers using earlier versions of Office may need to download and install a compatibility pack.
Click 'cancel' 3 times. Un-tick Custom.Dictionary.dic. Deal with the dialog box again.
Navigate to the enclosing folder (Microsoft; not Office 2011). Now you can close all the windows and quit word.
Solved the problem for me. ' You can get this method from this link and you can also refer to another method of Rich Michaels - MVP at the same link: Hope it's helpful.
