Shortly after installing Office 2011 for Mac, everything went pretty sour (I'm on Lion 10.7.4). Here's a roundup of the situation.

1) Lync starts, but then promptly crashes with a EXC_BAD_ACCESS. Crash log is below:

Error Signature:

Already tried a re-install, deleting certificates, re-installing again.

2) Outlook then decided to bite the dust too. It worked twice, and then it just won't launch. The menu bar is up at the top, but no UI displays at all. Oddly enough, it works on other user accounts but I get the feeling that's a temporary thing too.

Now of course you're saying 'Well, just go use the Microsoft Database Utility and rebuild! Duh!" I could if I would, so that brings us to problem #3. (Oh, tried a re-install here too).

3) Microsoft Database Utility crashes faster than anything else I've ever seen. Quite remarkable really. Here's its crash log:

I am in need of serious help. I've ready several dozen forum posts on way too many forums, and I feel like a headless chicken.

Thank you to anyone who can help me out!
