Make Office 2008 and Spaces Play Nicely
by James on Oct.24, 2008, under Tech Support
Spaces is a great feature in OS X that lets you have multiple desktops. Microsoft Office 2008 is also a necessary tool for many Mac users who wish to edit and share documents with others. Unfortunately, Office 2008 does not work well with spaces, with windows and especially the formatting toolbar jumping around everywhere. Microsoft has issued several updates (12.1.3 is the latest as of this writing), but has yet to fix the problem. However, you can follow the steps below to (mostly) fix these issues.
Boot Camp Cannot Partition Disk, Files Could Not Be Moved Error

Surely there is an easier solution? Well, there is.
