MathType Tool Bar does not appear on ribbon of Office 2007 Ultimat
I upgraded to Office 2007 Ultimate today from Office 2003. I had MathType
loaded in old Office and it was supposed to appear as a ribbon item after I upgraded today. I can't find it anywhere but if I load an old math paper already completed and right click to edit, a very small task bar appears minus the work table and I have to accomplish my work on the sheet. Can anyone tell me where my MathType tool bar went to? I've read all the posts and see over and over that it is supposed to be on the ribbon but it isn't. Thanks for listening. -- That''''''''s it! |

If you are using MathType 6, you should see a MathType tab between the View
and Developer tabs. If you don't see it, I would try removing MathType and reinstalling it. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Steven" wrote in message ...

Thank you for your response. I did not even have a Developer tab displayed
until I hunted around various items and added it. There is no MathType tab there. Thanks anyway, I appreciate your time and response. -- That''''''''s it!

What Herb implied, I'll specifically state -- If you AREN'T using
MathType 6, don't bother uninstalling and reinstalling it, because you still won't have the MathType tab on the Ribbon. Only MathType 6 will do that. Otherwise, Herb's instructions were valid. Also note that after you install MathType 6, there are critical instructions related to Word's security measures. If you just dismiss these instructions without reading them, you're not likely to have the tab on the Ribbon because you likely wouldn't have followed the instructions. -- Bob Mathews Director of Training Design Science, Inc. bobm at dessci.com http://www.dessci.com/free.asp?free=news FREE fully-functional 30-day evaluation of MathType MathType, WebEQ, MathPlayer, MathFlow, Equation Editor On 28-Aug-2008, "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: If you are using MathType 6, you should see a MathType tab between the View and Developer tabs.

MathType Tool Bar does not appear on ribbon of Office 2007 Ult
Hi,
I appreciated your comments Bob. I loaded the Developer tab onto the ribbon and still noted there is no MathType tab. One thing; I had the trial version and let it expire. When this happens you are allowed to keep a modified version minus a few bells and whistles. I am currently a university student and am in two math classes on line. I have to turn in a test this Sunday and am desperate to find the MathType somewhere on my computer so I can see what version it is. I've only had it for one month so I am assuming it is at least Math 6. What do you think? Could you tell me where I can locate it since it's not on my Word screen? Also, I read the install instructions very carefully when I installed MathType and had to go into Ofice 2003 and do some stuff I can't remember the first time it loaded. Since it works so very well I assumed I followed all directions on the initial install. Thanks again Bob and Herb, it's really nice to have you guys here to assist.

Steven, the Developer tab isn't necessary in order for the MathType
tab to show up, but having it there doesn't hurt anything, so you don't need to delete it if it isn't in the way. One thing you said that I need clarification on before we go farther -- you "had the trial version and let it expire". You never said you purchased MathType. One of the features that is in the full version of MathType that isn't in MathType Lite (the expired version) is the Ribbon tab in Word & PowerPoint 2007. If you've purchased a copy of MathType, I can help you get the tab back. If you're trying to find the tab with the expired version, there's nothing we can do to get it back short of purchasing a product key. You should still be able to use MathType Lite in Word 2007 by going to the Insert tab, and in the Text group, click on Object. MathType Lite should be in there. -- Bob Mathews Director of Training Design Science, Inc. bobm at dessci.com http://www.dessci.com/free.asp?free=news FREE fully-functional 30-day evaluation of MathType MathType, WebEQ, MathPlayer, MathFlow, Equation Editor On 28-Aug-2008, Steven wrote: I appreciated your comments Bob.

Thanks for the intervention, Bob. If anybody knows about what does and
doesn't work with MathType in Word 2007... you should! -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Bob Mathews" wrote in message ...

Bob and Herb
I went to MathType, got their phone number and called them concerning this issue. They said this is a common issue when loading in Ofice 2007 Ultimate and to do this: DO NOT UNINSTALL MathType. Go to their website and click on the thirty day free trial download. Click on the download which will detect if you have MathType or the Lite version. Click OK and then download and install again without uninstalling your present copy. Uninstalling your copy of MathType confuses the MathType downlaod server and causes a lot of peoblems. It is important not to have any open windows, especially Office programs while downloading and installing. Once this is accomplished there is no need to re-boot. Open Word or Excel or any Office suite program that utilizes MathType and viola! MathType appears between the Developer and View tabs on the ribbon and is ready to use. I did these things and now my MathType Lite is on the ribbon and functioning perfectly. I'd like to thank both you guys for your assistance and always appreciate the fact you're here to help. Hope this information is beneficial to you two and any others who may have experienced the same thing. Thanks again. Steven, Northglenn, CO -- That''''''''s it!

I have the same problem. It allows me to put it back in again - and I need it to reformat the equations since that other random problem happens where the equations change size. Anyway I put it back in and it disappears again next time I boot word. Microsoft crap or is it mathtype crap, I don't know |
