Cant' Add files to SharePoint Workspace 2010

Hi: I can't seem to find anything online regarding this problem. When in a document library in SPW, I click on the Add documents icon and a file browser window opens. I then select a file from the window and either double-click it or
press the Open button (both do the same). The file browser window then closes but I don't see that the file was added to the folder. I've tried this several times with the same result. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Gary,
According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot upload documents to the library in SharePoint Workspace.
Was there any error when you uploading the documents?
I tested the same scenario per your post, however everything worked fine.
I recommend to delete the cache files and re-sync the library with SharePoint Workspace and then add documents to see if the issue still occurs.

Cannot checkin/checkout html, js, txt, and jsp files in MS Sharepoint Workspace 2010

I am having issues checkin/checkout html, js and jsp files in Microsoft Sharepoint Workspace 2010. I can access (checkin/checkout) any files in the actual Sharepoint site, but when I am synchronized to the site in Sharepoint Workspace 2010 I cannot access
html, js, and jsp files. When I try to checkout a html file, a message pops up saying:
"Can not perform this operation. This document has been checked out or may no longer exist."
Could this be a synchronization issue, or was Sharepoint Workspace 2010 not design to work with html, js, txt, and jsp files?

SharePoint Workspace 2010 still installed after upgrade to Office 2013

I'm working on a deployment of Office 2013 in a corporate environment. Using the OCT, I've customized a package which is working well on machines that don't have previous version of Office installed. However, many of the existing machines currently
have Office 2010. After executing the Office 2013 package, we're noticing that while the upgrade works, SharePoint Workspace 2010 and the Office 2010 Tools still exist in the Start -> Programs menu. I also see Office 2010 in Add/Remove programs
(along with the new Office 2013). The OCT is specifically set to uninstall previous editions of Office during the upgrade (which is the default behavior).
I'll seen a couple of other posts like this on the forum, but unfortunately no answers. How can I *completely* uninstall Office 2010 (including SharePoint Workspace 2010 and the Office 2010 tools) during the upgrade to Office 2013? This
corporation doesn't need SharePoint Workspace 2010; my guess is that it was included by default with the Office 2010 package that they rolled out in the past.
Thanks!

Hi,
By default, the uninstall option in Office Customization Tool (OCT) will not remove SharePoint Workspace 2010 as SharePoint Workspace is no longer include in Office 2013.
Try to create a separate Office 2010 .msp file, set Microsoft SharePoint Workspace and Office Tools to "Not Available" and deploy it
prior to the installation of Office 2013.
Or you can do an Uninstall upgrade. Basically, use the /uninstall [ProductID] command-line option to uninstall Office 2010 from the user's computer first and then after that is finished, install Office 2013.
Here is a great example of how to perform an uninstall-upgrade for enterprise deployments :
http://blogs.technet.com/b/odsupport/archive/2011/04/06/how-to-perform-an-uninstall-upgrade-to-office-2010.aspx (Note, the steps are wrriten for Office 2010, but it holds good for Office 2013.)

Sharepoint Workspace 2010 woes

Hello, I have been trying to use the SharePoint workspace 2010 to upload files to the SharePoint site so my team can access the files remotely. I have been running into an issue where I am not able to view the files that I upload via the workspace
on the site, even after I sync them. The folders are visible but none of the files are. The files are viewable from the workspace. If I upload any files to the site, I am able to view them on both the workspace and the site itself.

Do you have the right link or enough permission to access SharePoint to sync the content from the website?
"I am not able to view the files that I upload via the workspace on the site, even after I sync them. The folders are visible but none of the files are. The files are viewable from the workspace"
In logic, When there is connectivity, the changes made to the local copy of libraries and lists are automatically synchronized with the corresponding items in an associate SharePoint site. SPW 210 treats all local changes as high priority and initiates an
immediate synchronization with SharePoint. When there is no connectivity, changes made in SharePoint workspaces are stored locally. The changes made offline are synchronized automatically the next time the user connects to the server.
Analyze 1: Do you meet the requirement? Regarding the software requirements, a SharePoint Workspace in SPW(SharePoint WorkSpace) 2010 can synchronize only with a site running on Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Foundation 2010, or SharePoint
Online servers.
Analyze 2: Does it only happen when uploading the file? What's the kind of documents you want to upload? SPW 2010 does not support all SharePoint sites. And not all content types of SharePoint lists and libraries as shown below are supported in SPW 2010
either. Calendar, survey, and Wiki are, for example, non-supported types.
There is a lot of factors may causes this, you may visit the link below to get the more reference about this issue.

Sharepoint Workspace 2010: Absolute path to workspaces folder

I am trying to mount the SharePoint Workspace 2010 workspaces folder on another computer so that I can parse the Excel files stored in it for additional processing. But I am unable to find the full file system path to the workspaces folder. Can someone please
help me find it?
Thanks,
Mahmood

Hi Mahmood,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to find the SharePoint 2010 workspace file location.
The workspace data is stored within the users profile. The default location is %localappdata%\Microsoft\Office\14.0\OfficeFileCache. The files in this location don't look like the actual files, and contain
a lot of metadata.
For more information, you can have a look at the blog:

SharePoint Workspaces 2010

I repaired my Windows 8 Pro installation preserving all my data. I realized too late that all my applications, including SharePoint Workspaces 2010 were deleted. I reinstalled the applications. I had one year old account file for SP Workspaces but my workspaces
are not loading. I can get re-invited to most but one. Is there any way to recover that one workspace?

Hi Marek,
Did you enable any an option to recover the account option earlier ? or did you take any backup of this workspace ?
If yes you can recover it, refer - http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/sharepoint-workspace-help/using-your-account-on-another-computer-in-sharepoint-workspace-2010-HA010283465.aspx

Cannot sync Microsoft Sharepoint workspace 2010 with Sharepoint 2013 site

I keep getting the below error message when I try to sync a doc lib from a sharepoint 2013 site with sharepoint workspace 2010.
The field "AppAuthor" contains a lookup list "AppPrincipals" that cannot be resolved. The target list may not be part of the site
I have uninstalled Lync 2013, uninstalled and re-installed office 2010, 2687364 hotfix yet the issue still persists.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Kind Regards
Louis
thanks

Hi,
Is this issue only occur in one client machine? Can other machines installed SharePoint Workspace 2010 works when perform syncing?
As you have reinstalled the 2687364 hotfix and the issue still exists, I suggest you install Office 2010 SP2 to see if it can work:
32-bit
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39667
64-bit

Feel free to reply with the test result if the issue still exists.

How to develop custom add-in for sharepoint designer 2010

Hi ,
Can anybody suggest me how to create a custom add-in for sharepoint designer 2010?
Are there any templates through which i can create a managed add-in using C#? or developing COM add-in (VB6) is the only solution?
Please suggest.
Regards
Sujasree

Hi, Sujasree
      Based on my knowledge, there have not been public samples and walkthroughs for SharePoint Designer 2010 add-in.
       MSDN provides some sample for Word and Excel:
Office Development Samples and Walkthroughs:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z63ctsh2.aspx
       Additionally, VS 2010 have not provide such templates yet.
       So would you please share your business requirement with us?
       SPD is a just client to manage and customize SharePoint site, its powerful but difficult to do extension.
       You could also consider builting your custom add-in elsewhere, e.g.: in a customized admin page or webpart, which is easy to achieve.
       Hope this can help!

How to Export SharePoint Workspace 2010 Lists to Excel

We are using SharePoint WorkSpace as our primary inter-office business repository. Note, we are NOT on a local version of the SharePoint 2010 server, but rather utilize the cloud service on a subscription basis.
The problem we ran into is that there is NO option to grab items in a custom list and select Excel, CSV, XML, etc. as option for export. the ONLY option we have available is the SharePoint WorkSpace 2010 archive format (*.gax). This looks like it is
in some propietary binary format...
I am fairly certain in 2007 and the old "Groove" there was an option to do this? Am I missing something here?

Try below:

Try force rebooting it, hold down the power and home button for 10 seconds until the apple boot logo comes up. If that doesn't work, try rebooting your computer.

Hi everyone,
How can I enable "All Files" in my sharepoint designer.In home laptop I see it,but in production environment where I work,opening SharePoint Designer I can not see "All Files" button.I am with admin account and everithing is ticked in the central administration
Designer options.
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
I noticed that you said you can see the ‘All files’ folder in home laptop ,but it is missing when open in the production environment .Did this happen to
all the sites or the site in the specific web application ?Have you extend the web application into an Internet zone?
Actually you should change the SharePoint designer settings in both Central Administration and Site collection settings .Perform an IIS reset after change
the settings and reopen the site in SharePoint designer.
For more information about SharePoint designer settings ,please refer to this site :
