Now I can start an xml file from scratch and attach it to the template, but since I have about a dozen commands on the tab, thought it would be easier to use an existing xml file for the tab I created. I need to just replace the images in the xml file. I decided the symbols that were available did not work for me so did some digging and found I can create my own images (100x100px) and use them. I just used the customise ribbon option to create the new tab. I created a new tab and added a number of macro buttons and it is working fine. Reopen Word, and your Styles associated with your old version should be restored.I am trying to modify a ribbonon a new macro enabled template I am creating in Word 2016. Open the folder that contains this file, delete Normal.docm and rename Normal2.docm as Normal.docm. Next, Quit Word and search for Normal2.docm in Finder. Reopen this Normal2.docm file and convert it to the Word 2016 format by selecting the 'Convert Document' command (File -> Convert Document). Uncheck the Hide Extensions checkbox to ensure the file type is not. This can be selected in the File Format drop down box. Once this file is opened, save it in the same location under a new file name (Normal2.docm), ensuring that is is being saved as a Microsoft Word Macro-enabled Template.

You may need to ensure you are searching in the Template folder as identified in the answer above. docm in the search field of the Open dialog box. Then, through the Word application itself, open the Normal.docm template file associated with the old version of Word.

Here are the steps: Open Word for Mac and ensure all documents are closed. The solution was to replace the current Normal.docm file with the old Normal.docm file. When upgrading to Word for Mac 2016 I lost all of the customizations made to the Normal.docm template. I encountered a similar problem and was able to arrive at a solution. Every time I start Word 2016, I get the same Draft view with fonts Calibri, etc. But when I relaunch Word 2016, none of the template saves are present. I try saving differently, via Normal.dotx, which is where the Normal.dotx got into the folder in the first place. Should I not be trying to save Word Macro-Enabled Template (.dotm)? OK, fine. The document вЂњDocument1вЂќ could not be saved as вЂњNormal.dotmвЂќ. Type a different name for the document you want to save. Word cannot give a document the same name as an open document. Other user advice to save in the above location returns this dialog: Following official MS advice to save-as templates does not work for me. This folder currently has Normal.dotm and Normal.dotx. So, I have located my Word 2016 templates at: /Users//Library/Group Containers/UBF8T346G9.Office/User Content/Templates/ It seems there is confusion about the directory location of saved templates. It seems some others have found problems with altering the Normal template and found no joy from MS forums. I have no issues running them concurrently. Although I did a clean install, I did not uninstall MS Office 2011 apps.
