Apple – Support – Discussions – Saving and printing pdf files in Safari ….  The poster did all the right fixes and three days later it started to work.  Strange.  I would only suggest to clear the Safari cache or throw away the preference file for Safari.

Trying to open .xlsx, .docx, or .pptx file in Office for Mac 2004:.  If you click on the link above you will learn that you have to download and install the Open XML File Format Converter.  Nice that you have some forward compatibility.  MS changes its download links or I would have included it in this article.
