Hi Myrna, Have you checked Word 2016 preview to make sure that the updates went in? It should read 15.9. I had a heck of a time upgrading. Like George, I'm able to word process with it. However, I have started a laundry list to submit to Microsoft sometime soon. I believe those who have been using a Mac for a while may not have the problems I'm having or they have more tricks up their sleeves to try or push Word 2016. It would be terrific if the Mac version worked like the PC, but no such luck. Everything is scattered all over the place. I'll keep testing it, but if I have some serious word processing to do, I'll use word 2010. JMO. Oh, I was receiving a nagging error message from Apple that my system ran out of application memory. what did the trick was to do a disk cleanup if the update didn't go in.
Take care.
