Word VBA Problem

Question

Every time I open a file in Microsoft Word in my Apple Mac, the following message appear three times:

Visual Basic for Applications

Run-time error 53

File not found: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/

MACPDFM.framework/Versions/A/MacPDFM

This problem arrived when I migrate to a new Mac. Something I did not accept because I found it strange that Apple was using VBA!

I suppose too that it is related with Acrobat Reader.

Thank You

Answer 1

Apple doesn't use VBA. That's part of an Acrobat installation. To fix it:

1. Close Word.
2. Hold down the Option key while clicking on the macOS Go menu. Choose Library. Your hidden user Library folder opens.
3. Navigate to ~/Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Startup/Word.
4. Drag the linkCreation.dotm file to your desktop.
5. Restart Word to check that the message no longer appears.

While you have the folder open, check Startup/Excel and Startup/PowerPoint to delete the Adobe macro-enabled files in those folders. This will prevent similar messages appearing when you open Excel and PowerPoint.

After you've checked that the Office programs are working, you can trash the Adobe files.

I delayed to ask, so this is the time with success.

Thank You so much again.
