Running VMWare Fusion 4.1.4 on Mac OS X Mavericks. Everything works flawlessly except for Office 2013. The suite of applications installed with no problem but, when I try to open any of the applications, the application fills the VM window but does not open properly. It is very hard to describe so I have attached a screen shot to better clarify the issue. As you can see by the screen shot, Microsoft Word opens full screen within the VM and displays the default blue color but does not properly. If I move the cursor, the pop up help info appears (i.e. if I hover over the upper right hand corner of the VM display window, the word Close appears). I have all the appropriate Windows and Microsoft updates applied including Service Pack 1 for Office 2013.
We do not have a license for VMWare Fusion 5 or 6 and, before this, have no intention of upgrading at this time. Has anyone else experienced this issue and figured a work-a-around short of downgrading to Office 2010?
