Office upgrade to 14.5.0 as of May 12, 2015

This new update to Office for Mac 2011 can be fatal. Once installed, I can no longer open an Outlook window for e-mail, contacts, etc.


After 3 hours on the phone with MicroSoft, they admitted that the update is flawed. Right now they have no fix.


I WOULD URGENTLY RECOMMEND TO NOT INSTALL MS OFFICE UPDATE VERSION 14.5.0.


Has anyone else experienced this and survived with their Outlook in tact?

iMac (27-inch, Late 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

I had the same issue this morning, spent several hours trying suggestions on this string, including reinstalling my Outlook from time machine with no luck.

Still unclear on whether this was related to upgrading to Yosemite (earlier this week), or a glitch with MS Outlook's update.


Solution I found was to rebuild my Outlook database (step 4) in the link below...it seems to have worked.

Hope this helps others.
