Microsoft Word For Mac 2011 Keeps Crashing
I then reinstalled mac osx, deleting everything. Everything was fine until I ran all software updates. Then same problem. I have not restored any of my own files yet. I am working with Microsoft Word 2011 on a MacBook Pro and am having the exact same issue. The document I am working on currently has over 200 cited references. As I was writing and inserting refernces, I gradually noticed that it took longer and longer to update the bibliography the more references I included.

I see that this thread is about a year old so I am curious if anyone has found a solution. I am working with Microsoft Word 2011 on a MacBook Pro and am having the exact same issue. The document I am working on currently has over 200 cited references. As I was writing and inserting refernces, I gradually noticed that it took longer and longer to update the bibliography the more references I included.
When my reference list exceeded 100 references occationally the process would hang and I would have to restart both Word and Endnote to proceed. Once I did so I could continue for a while but would eventually have to restart both programs again. At one point, the program froze so I attempted to restart both programs as before. However, when I brought them back up I began encountering the issue with Word crashing w hen I attempt to insert or update references in my document's bibliography.
It will start going through the process of updating the references and links but when it gets to 'updating in text citations' in the pop-up Word will crash. I the I did as the others have indicated and copied the text from the offending file and pasted it into a new document which fixes the problem for a time, however, upon going back to those new documents recently I am now encountering the same problem forcing me to repeat the process.
Each time, only Word crashes - Endnote remains open and functional though closing out of it and restarting both programs does not help, only transfering the text to a new document. As the hosts of this forum have suggested I attempted to convert my reference to 'unformatted' but doing so caused Word to crash immediately as others have apparently also encountered. Since I only started having this problem within the last month and the problem seems to be limited to this one document.and the two other copies I have since had to make of it.I am wondering if it is just the shere number of individual references included so I am curious if the others encountering this problem have a similarly high number of references in their documents. To ask a silly question: has this been resolved?
I've been using Endnote with Word 2011 for several months now and given that Microsoft is involved, it's not been too bad. Now suddenly, I can't insert a citation in a Word document (new or existing) without crashing Word - unless I use the insert selected citation option - and even that seems pretty dodgy! Hi Leanne No.

I know I'm not unique in this and have hoped that someone has posted a solution. On a Mac: • Make a backup of your document.
• Choose the 'Tools > EndNote > Unformat Citations' or 'Convert to Unformatted Citations' command, which will remove the reference list and revert the citations. • Press [Apple]+A on the keyboard to highlight everything. 
• Press [Apple]+6 (above the 'T' and 'Y' key) to remove any additional hidden field codes. • Press [Apple]+C to copy the highlighted text. • Open a new document and press [Apple]+V to paste. 
Note: If you have citations in footnotes, you will need to click in the footnotes section and repeat steps 3- 6.
