When i press Save or Save As. Word doesn't respond. This happens even when i am closing files and want to save my changes. Finally once i select don't save, it immediately responds by closing the file without saving changes.
A lot of problems with Office 2013 are caused by third party (non-Microsoft) applications.This is my (expanding) list of things to try when Office 2013\365 won’t start or crashes:
See the Article “Why can’t I start my Office 2013 application at:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/support/why-cant-i-start-my-office-2013-application-HA104011864.aspxFor the error message Error: "Microsoft Office cannot verify the license for this product." See:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2797062/en-us Refer to the following website for information on repairing Office 2013\365: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/project-help/repair-or-remove-office-2010-HA010357402.aspx
See Office 2013 install woes - http://office-watch.com/t/n.aspx?a=1834 See the KnowledgeBase article “Office 2013 applications crash on launch at the splash screen” at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2813143 Or see the KnowledgeBase article Error: “Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now” when trying to install Office 2013 at: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2811180/en-us/ Try to run word in safe mode by typing winword/safe.
If thatdoes
not helpthen, in the search box type winword --> Word 2013 will be displayed --> right click on it --> Select Properties --> Go to the compatibility tab --> Check to see if there is a check
mark next to compatibilty mode. If it is checked then uncheck it and then uncheck the option of Run as Administrator if its checked.
Now run the word

A number of people have reported that removing it overcomes problems with 2013.See:
Office programs may crash with the FineReader add-in installed at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2755838
Do you have “Fun Tools” add-in? A number of people have reported that removing it overcomes problems with 2013
Do you have Toshiba Book Reader installed on the PC?It has been reported that uninstalling that brings Office back to working status.
Do you have the Acrobat PDFMaker add-in.It has been reported that uninstalling that overcomes an issue with a message appearing that states "The document contains macros. Macro support for this application is disabled. Features requiring VBA
are not available. Would you like to open this document as a read only?"
For the error message "There was a problem sending the command to the program", use Windows Explorer to access the C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15 folder and right click on WINWORD.EXE then on
Properties, go to the Compatibility tab and uncheck all the boxes.It has also been reported that the problem can be overcome by editing the registry at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Word.Document.12\shell\Open and deleting the ddeexec key.
For the problem of nothing appearing when you start typing in a blank document in Word in Office 365 Home Premium, and you hear a bell sound with each keypress, but no characters
appear, disable the SMARTInk add-in for an interactive whiteboard.
If none of that helps, then you might remove all traces of the Office installation by downloading the fixit from the following article:
