Word Web App works for one member of my SkyDrive group but not the other two.

I am a member of a SkyDrive group that has three members. 
For one of them, when they double click on a shared docx the Word Web App opens up like it should.
For the other two members, when they double click the browser times out.
I logged in as each member of the group on the same computer and tested the same shared file to get the above results?

Is there some permissions problem or anything that I can do to fix this?

Can SkyDrive use Open in Word as default rather than Open in Word Web App; document opened successfully pop-up

I don't ever want to use Word Web App when I'm skydrive.live.com. It's cumbersome to always right-click and click Open in Word. Is there a way to make SkyDrive open a Word file in Word without having to go through right-clicks or menus?

Also, I keep getting this annoying pop-up that tells me what file is opening and then I either need to click outside of it or click My document opened successfully or one of the choices if I had issues. Can I disable that pop-up as well?
