Microsoft Word cannot zoom, stucked at 45% (or other percentage, depending on the screen size) which is caused by Side to Side page movement setting.

Make sure your MS-Word page movement is set to Vertical.

Can't switch to Hiragana on Japanese Microsoft IME, and it stays as Half-width Alphanumeric.

Make sure you got the correct dictionary file located at C:\Windows\IME\IMEJP\DICTS\

The DIC files that you need are imjptk.dic, IMJPZP.DIC and SDDS0411.DIC.

DIC files can be downloaded here.

Japanese Hiragana is typing a different character. For example, when typing ho, this comes up:

    くら

instead of:

     ほ

Solution:

Make sure your input method is set to Romaji input.

To change the input, right-click on IME options -> Properties -> Advanced -> Input method -> Romaji input.
