- 2020-3-31 When you try to open a PowerPoint for Mac presentation or application it either hangs with spinning wheel or does not open at all. Check to ensure the Hard Drive icon has a name to it. The name should not be all numbers but can have numbers in it as along as the name starts with a text.
- When Microsoft Office slows down, showing you spinning wheels and requiring long wait times, it breaks your flow and concentration, ultimately affecting your productivity.

- Few things give Mac users that sinking feeling more than the sight of a spinning color wheel, rainbow wheel, spinning beach ball of death or SBBOD as it's also commonly known. It’s official name is the Spinning Wait Cursor, and it’s a system indicator. Signifies that macOS cannot handle all the tasks given to it at this moment.
- Spinning color wheel of death, AGAIN! Word not responding i am running office 2011 Mac home & student on a Mac OS 10.6.8 and i 'm about to lose my mind.
New MAC Pro. OS X 10.9. app - MS Word for MAC. Spinning wheel every few minutes, all morning, while attempting to edit 20 pp doc. After researching problem: Checked activity utility, no apparent problems, except Word not responding. Plenty of disk space, memory, etc. Closed all other apps (except Webroot). Using only styles to format. Before today, performance seemed to be getting sluggish. My first Apple computer. Blech! It's touchy and difficult, plus I don't know my way around very well. I only changed to MAC because I couldn't tolerate Win 8 -- what have I done?? More important, what can I do to fix this? What do I need to know to prevent it happening again?

Imo, office is superior to any mac word processing programs, but word is consistently 'not responding,' i have to force quit, data is lost, then i get real cranky. You know the drill. I have read in forums that claim cut and paste may / may not be causing this issue; shapes may / may not be causing this; or a bug.
