Create a new document in Sharepoint Document Library/OneDrive on iPad/Safari
Hi,
My users are having trouble creating a new document from OneDrive in Safari on their iPads. The screen goes grey like its going to show the popup to select the new file type, but the popup never comes up. If they clear their cache, it works for exactly 1
time and then goes back to this behavior. I'm not exactly sure if it worked before and/or when it stopped working. The iPad I have tested was at the latest 8.2 version of IOS and my Sharepoint farm is an On-Prem install of 2013 with SP1 mark2. My WAC farm
is also 2013 SP1.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt
Hi,
I understand you are suffering the issue when create a document in Sharepoint Document Library/OneDrive on iPad.
According to the official article
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161353.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396, the version of your iOS should be in the supported list. I guess the issue may start after you installed an update, and if there is any other version (low versions)
of iPads in your company, please use a different version device to test the issue.
Meanwhile, to determine whether the issue is related to your SharePoint environment, I suggest you just to register an Office 365 trail account, and test the issue with SharePoint Online. In case the same issue happens with SharePoint Online, the issue should
be related to your client device, and my next suggestion is to contact support of your device manufacture.
Once you need any help from SharePoint end, please don’t hesitate to come back, and we are always happy to support you.
Best Regards,
Lisa Chen

Links in Word Documents to SharePoint documents
Our SharePoint site contains Word documents with links to other documents stored in SharePoint.
When the users open a Word document stored in SharePoint, and then create a link, the users select the files in the "Current Folder" which is the SharePoint Network Drive. In this case the path is
\\rcssportal.co.riverside.ca.us\DavWWWRoot\sites\teammate\
When users then open the Word document, and select a link, they receive a "Cannot open the specified file" pop up.
If users do one of the following though, after being authenticated all the links will start working:
1. In the document library, select "Open with Explorer"
2. Map a Network Drive to
\\rcssportal.co.riverside.ca.us\DavWWWRoot\sites\teammate\Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to link in Word Documents to SharePoint documents.
I try to reproduce the issue, however, I can open the Linked Word Document in the SharePoint Network Drive.
Please make sure you create Network Drive correctly. For more information, you can refer to:
Using SharePoint Document Library as a Network Drive
If the issues still exist, I recommend to select "Open with Explorer" to open the document.

My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer.
When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist anymore. I did not have time machine set up, so there is no back up. Is there any way i can retrieve my library?
Here is a picture of what appears when i click on iPhoto:In terms of searching i have searched for photos on my finder. However, none of the photos that appear are from my iPhoto Library.
Search with FindAnyFile. You can download it here: http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/index.php
Search for any file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the name. If you added at least one image to your library, the library should contain a file with this name, see OldToad's post: Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it? -

Error while programmatically adding a document to SharePoint document library
Hello everyone,
I have created a custom content type and modified the document template to use the quick parts inside the template.
I have a document library which uses the custom content type.
I have a button inside a custom application page(created using visual studio). On click of this button I want to create a new document inside the document library using the custom content type and update other columns in the content type. I am able to create
the document, but I get the below error when I open the document.
public static void UpdateAndCreateFile(SPWeb web)
try
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
string sList = "My Document Library";
string sContentType = "My Custom Document";
SPList list = web.Lists[sList];
// this always uses root folder
SPFolder folder = web.Folders[sList];
SPFileCollection fcol = folder.Files;
// find the template url and open
string sTemplate =
list.ContentTypes[sContentType].DocumentTemplateUrl;
SPFile spf = web.GetFile(sTemplate);
byte[] binFile = spf.OpenBinary();
// Url for file to be created
string destFile = fcol.Folder.Url + "/" + "test2.docx";
// create the document and get SPFile/SPItem for
// new document
SPFile addedFile = fcol.Add(destFile, binFile, true);
SPItem newItem = addedFile.Item;
newItem["ContentType"] = sContentType;
newItem.Update();
addedFile.Update();
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;
catch (Exception ex)
// handle exception here
The above code gives the same issue when I use the 'Document' content type instead of the "My Custom Document" content type.
The document looks/opens fine when I create it from the browser.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks.I could not figure out a proper solution, but here is what I did to get around the issue.
I created a document using the document template and saved it to the library(same doc library) and named it as Sample.docx
In my code, every time I had to create a document, I would just copy the Sample.docx file to the library, but make sure I rename the file when I copy it.
Then I can use the url of the file I saved through my code and get the list item and update the other properties/columns of the content type
Below is the code to use an existing file and create a new file
public static void UpdateAndCreateFile(SPWeb web)
try
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
string sList = "My Documents";
SPList list = web.Lists[sList];
// this always uses root folder
SPFolder folder = web.Folders[sList];
SPFileCollection fcol = folder.Files;
SPFile file = fcol[sList + "/Sample.docx"] ;
file.CopyTo(sList + "/" + "test1.docx", true);
web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;
catch (Exception ex)

Creating a new "Link to a Document" opens Word document or upload document dialog - plus more!
The Link to Document content type seems to be corrupted at root. When I attempt to create a new Link, either Word opens with a blank document or the "Upload" document dialog opens. It's been changing as I investigate.
One things I've noticed is that the "Link to a Document" Content Type on the parent site collection now shows it's parent as Document. this explains why the Word document opens, but not why the Upload dialog does.
While writing this question, I decided to check further and it seems that the other document types, Audio, Video etc. all now have Document as the parent and are opening a blank Word document.
Has anyone seen this behavior? How do I fix this?
This is on SharePoint 2010.
Thanks in advance.
Barry Cohen
Barry CohenWell, I spoke too soon. The process worked for all the custom content types, but the default Document type was still messed up. I probably should have fixed that one first, but...
Anyhow, the Document type had no template going to the Upload File dialog rather than the blank Word document it's supposed to go to. I followed the same procedure I'd followed for the other content types, checking what worked on another site and using that
template which in this case was a blank field:
So, I went opened Document, Document Content Type and went to advanced settings. The template field was empty, which matched the working site, so thinking that if I saved, it would match up with the working site. I saved the Document content type and when
after several minutes the save failed with an incredibly long list of locations where that were being perceived as "read only" plus several hidden content types that were listed as sealed. This snapshot shows a few of they many pages of content types. (I poorly
struck through confidential info):
Besides this gigantic error, which would require going to hundreds of locations on the site to change read access settings, which are, as far as I can tell actually not "read only" or are inaccessible, such as the hidden "System Page Layout' and so forth
which shouldn't be based upon the default document type anyway and therefor not fixable, I need to understand why this is happening and what to do about it. I don't want to spend the next two days going over all of these libaries and content types and ending
up back where I started with all the content types still screwed up. Afterall, I've spent about a day creating all these custom Content Types only to have the default Document content type loose its settings and corrupting everything and another day fixing
it and having it happen again.
This is a highly unacceptable behavior on the part of SharePoint and I would really like to fix this.
Help is sorely needed.
Thanks in advance

How do I create a new folder in my documents?
Hi there, I'm new on Mac.
How do I create a new folder when I want a new folder in my documents?
I also want to create folders on an extern harddrive, but I can only create a folder on the launchpad...See my orginal post - it answered the OPs question just fine:
When you have any window open, you can press the Shift-Command-N keys to create a new untitled folder. Same with on an external hard drive. Also works on the Desktop.
Maybe I should have said, to your reply:
"and you don't have to open any windows to use the command on the Desktop."
Would that have worked for you?

Upload Multiple documents in SharePoint document Library not working
Hi All,
I have folder on my desktop which consists of nested folders and files(Total 11 files) .And when I select "Upload multiple files" option to upload documents and drag the folder from the desktop in pop-up window .
The sharepoint document library uploads only 1 file among all the nested folders from 11 files.Can any one help me how can I solve this
Thanks, Quality Communication Provides Quality Work. http://siddiq-sharepoint2010.blogspot.in/ Siddiqali Mohammad .Hi,
I understand you encountered the issue when use "Upload Multiple Documents" to Drag Files and Folders to upload window.
When you say "The sharepoint document library uploads only 1 file among all the nested folders from 11 files", do you mean you have drag all files and folders to the window, while only 1 file is uploaded sucessfully? Or you cannot find all expected
folders and files?
Please manually open "Windows Explorer" to locate files and drag files from "Windows Explorer", instead of using the "Open window"
opened by "Browse for files instead" as below:

How to display the thumbnail view of the documents in Sharepoint Document Library
Is there a way that we can have the thumbnail view of the documents that are uploaded in SharePoint Document Library. We have thumbnail feature in Picture Library but can we have the same in Document Library too. Documents includes Words,Excel,PDF.
Any Suggestions PleaseHey Mike,
Good post, I'd be curious to see if anyone has used the GD Picture SDK with SharePoint, maybe there would be some sample code.
Hey Kukdai,
Developing your own solution would potentially provide a better way to accomplish your task, but before setting out on that long road you may want to try the simple customization, it's less time consuming and it will help gauge your customer's interest and
support.
Also, there is a wealth of open source code for SharePoint available on CodePlex, you might want to check that out as well. Here is the linK:

Also, here is an interesting project to consider for your task:

I hope that helps!

Create a new MWord or MExcel document from the portal
Hi all,
Do you know if I can create a new WORD document (no upload) from the portal.
From the dropdown menu we have the option to create a text ot html file, not Word or excel.
thanks
in advanceHi Vijay,
thanks for your reply.
Do you know any vendor application which can work with EP, and gives the ability to create microsoft documents(Excel and word documents)?
The way that we are working now, is to create the documents outside the EP, and then upload them into EP.
This is not efficient.
Do you have any suggestion?
Many thanks again

Run macros on all word documents inside sharepoint document library
Hi,
i want to run macros on all word documents which resides inside sharepoint document library.
please help me.hi
macroses are running in opened Word document process memory. In Sharepoint code is running in IIS process, so you probably have to rethink your requirements and see how you may do the same actions not by macroses, but e.g. by event receivers.
