Change author name in track changes Hi, I need to change the name of the author, for the track changes. Mac / Office 2016 for Mac. In Office 2010, like some earlier versions, there is an option to 'Prepare for Sharing'. First go to the 'File' tab, then select 'Info'. In the right hand pane you'll see 'Prepare for Sharing', which may already show some issues: Click 'Check for Issues' -> 'Inspect Document', which will pop up a window, where you can select the issues you want to look at: From what you've said, the most important one to check is 'Document Properties and Personal Information', but I'd leave them all selected, personally. When you're happy, click 'Inspect', which will produce a report: Now just click on 'Remove All' as needed in each category to remove any of the information that has been returned (in this case 'Author'). Then save the file (presumably with a new name if you want to retain the metadata in your original for internal use). I would save the file in an (e.g. Xslx), unzip the file and peruse the contents using an XML editor (you can use notepad in a pinch), search for the strings that you are concerned might be present (e.g. People and organisation names) Darl McBride Bill Gates 2007-03-15T23:04:04Z SCO Group, Inc. Hey folks, When I use the Track Changes feature in Word 2013 (running on Windows 8.1), and I create a new Comment, my name temporarily appears as the Author, but when I close and re-open the document, it switches the Author name to 'Author' instead of my name. Best video surveillance software. Also, my picture disappears in favor of a generic icon. What is going on here? ![]() FYI, I'm logged into Windows 8.1 using my Microsoft Account. I'm not sure if that matters. It seems to be pulling my name and account picture correctly, until I close and re-open the document. See the following screenshot: I changed some formatting, closed and re-opened the document, then inserted a new comment. My name shows up correctly when I make a new change, but disappears after closing the document.

Do the following to start the Document Inspector in Word 2013: Click File| Info| Check for Issues| Inspect Document.

Our office has been struggling with a related problem that maybe you can solve. Basically, the same person is repeatedly given a different reviewer name as they work in a document (presumably every time the document is autosaved). For example, if I work for an hour adding edits or comments on a document by the time I'm ready to share it it will look like five different people made changes. The Inspect Document fix works great to remove all the extra reviewer names, but it changes them all to 'Author'. Do you know how to then either a) change 'Author' to the reviewer's actual name or b) stop Office from assigning multiple names to the same reviewer. Also, we've tried checking 'Always use these values regardless of sign in' under General to no avail.
