Having problems with blog Entry editing

I am currently trying to figure out why when I edit the Photomatix software review, the word processor seems to get hung up within WordPress…

So I’m currently testing both my new Dragon voice-recognition software, while “writing” this blog entry…

I have a feeling that the issue may be related to the SEO software plug-in that I have installed.

Stay tuned for more details as I try to figure this mess out…

@ 12:13 – I am able to save Drafts, but I am not able to publish the software review article… Trying up publish now with this entry… No Categories or Tags have been selected… All the WordPress SEO settings are set to default…

@ 12:17 – the published appears to have worked… There does appear to be an issue with my local clock on my computer and the published time on the blog, but is only a two-minute difference; blog running quicker… the “Uncategorized” category has been selected by default… I am going to try to deactivate the SEO software for the moment… “Update” button appears to be working plus the Autosave…

@ 13:01 – disabling the SEO software does not appear to have had any effect… I have also looked at the W3 caching plug-in and have disabled that… The CrystalTech.com control panel does not allow me as much administrator tools as I would have thought… I am currently looking into a database plug-in for WordPress… I seem to remember having issues getting the plug-in before to work correctly and gave up…

02/20 @ 22:54 – Still looking into this issue… It is driving me NUTS!

02/21 @ 00:24 – this is completely insane…

I have combed my code for any “weird” characters within the ASCII set…

I have even gone so far as to remove any links or code along those lines.

I have even gone to the extent of adding the paragraph tags, that are not normally needed when doing WordPress blogging.

I have cleared my caches… Tried both Firefox and Chrome… and I still cannot update my post on Photomatix…

Chrome does appear to be reacting any better, but some of my post still can take minutes to update…

I am now trying IE, in hopes that it may do better…

Nope…

That is THREE DIFFERENT Browsers…

I have searched via Google for a resolution, but have not been able to find one.

WordPress.org does not seem to really have anything either.

Frustrating is an understatement.

I have spent many hours on this condition.

At this point, I am just trying to post whatever I can.

I am even doing this entry in Dreamweaver, so that I have a text file to work from.

Needlessly, productivity has been very low this evening.

I have to seriously wonder if it is not a conflict between IIS and MySQL, both on WinTel.

02/24 @ 21:38 – I am STILL having problems!

Excel/Word 2007 “The Document Information Panel was unable to load”

Does the following sound like something you have had happen to you?

“I select the Office button > Prepare > Properties, I get the message “the document information panel was unable to load”.”

It seems that several folks have been running into this issue with both 2007 MS Excel and Word, and there is not a very good explanation of why it occurs, but a potential simple resolution for me was the following:

  1. Close your MS Excel/Word application;
  2. Copy the “IPEDINTL.DLL” from
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Web Designer Tools\Office\121033
> to <
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\121033
  1. Re-launch the application, and try again.

Thanks to the folks at: PC Review (UK), and Ben at Freewarecritic on Blogspot.com for the answer!
