Frustraion!!! I have a desktop PC my daughter has a mac laptop Macbook I think. We got her the microsoft office disc for mac so now she can type in word. BUT when she tries to print through wireless to our dell printer attached to our desktop pc it nothing happens.
We click print on the Mac in word and we select dell printer and this horizontal blue and white barberpole appears the acts as if its sending the document to the printer but nothing happens on the other end. I know squat about Macs and only a little bit of squat about PCs.
To make matters worse I had her just email me the word doc so I could print it from the desk top. I got the email and file then the computer said I needed my small office XP disc to install a converter so I put the disc in I suppose the converter installed ( it said it was) but when I open the file I get some funky stuff lots of little boxes and some weird characters.
Any thoughts on either of these subjects?
