Microsoft Autoupdate For Mac 2011 Is Not Working
I have been running MS Office 2011 for Home and Student on my MacBookPro (OS 10.6.8 ) without any problems. Now all of a sudden, for no apparent reason, it crashes when I start, Excel, Word, or PowerPoint. I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it three times using the following instructions from this link as well as read threads with others having the same issue but I can't seem to fix it.. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768
After each uninstall, I did a startup from my Install CD and ran Disk Repair and Repair Permissions before reinstalling MS Office. Permissions and Disk Repair stated everything was fine and no problems found.
When I click on Word or Excel, it crashes and below is the report that I got when I just now opened Excel and I get the same with Word. I've even tried holding down the shift key and starting up Excel or Word and it still crashes.
I am far from being computer savvy but can someone please tell me why I can't get MS Office to work and explain to me in user friendly terms how I can fix it? I would really appreciate it. Thank you beforehand.

- Microsoft AutoUpdate makes sure your copy of Office will always be up-to-date with the latest security fixes and improvements. If you are a Microsoft 365 subscriber, you'll also receive the newest features.
- Office for Mac 2011, however, switched to a single activation code and to an install-based licensing plan, effectively halving the number of Macs on which a customer can install the program.
Microsoft Autoupdate For Mac 2011 Is Not Working Together
However, after reinstalling Office 2011 for Mac from a back-up dmg file, I was unable to use the built-in Office autoupdater to get any updates. Any attempts result in a pop up box saying rather cryptically “AutoUpdate Cannot Connect to The Update Server”.
