Office 2007 Documents Keep asking for credentials

Hi All Gurus - Is there any issue with SP 2013 and Office 2007? We are trying to access office documents using IE 11, it prompts for credentials first time after compture reboot. Once given credentials it works fine whole day. but users who reboot there
computer have to provide credentials next day. It's not with the PDF documents. Also, we have set proper Alternate Access Mapping and FQDN for the site. Also, the intranet site has been added to the trusted site. Also, tried with the Local Intranet Zone setting
"Automatic logon with current username and password".
Users with the IE 10/11 and Office 2010 have no issues.
Could anybody please guide me on this?
Regards,
Khushi

Outlook 2010 + Exchange 2010 keeps asking for credentials - Please Help!

Hello All,
Recently after a Windows Update + restart of my Exchange Server I'm having an issue with Outlook 2010 where it continually asks for credentials. Every 5 minutes or so the credentials popup appears and either typing your password or clicking cancel will make
Outlook work as expected again until the next popup, frequency of popups is about 2-5 minutes give or take. I am using Exchange 2010 on Server 2008 R2 and aside from the popup everything is working as expected. This seems to be effecting almost all users.
Some things I've tried already include:
- Removing any saved credentials on computer
- Removing and recreating Outlook Mail Profiles
- Running "Set-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory -Identity 'autodiscover (default Web site)' -WindowsAuthentication $true -BasicAuthentication $false" in shell to disable basic authentication for autodiscover
- Running "get-outlookanyhwere | set-outlookanywhere -ClientAuthenticationMethod NTLM -IISAuthenticationMethods NTLM" in shell to ensure that outlook anywhere and IIS are using NTLM authentication
- Ensuring that the OAB folder permissions are set to allow Authenticated Users to Read/Execute
Anyways, if anybody has additional suggestions for me I'd very much appreciate them. Many users are using the Web App for the time being (with no issues) since the credentials popup is too annoying for them.

So I made sure that all of my authentication methods match the settings you linked me and then recycled the app pool you mentioned but am still having the issue.
One thing I noticed is that if a user experiencing the problem types their password into the credentials popup it will keep popping up continuously but if they hit cancel it says "Needs Password" where it would normally say "Connected to Microsoft Exchange"
and if they simply click once where it says "Needs Password" then all of a sudden it switches to "Connected to Microsoft Exchange" again and they no longer see the popup until Outlook is restarted.
Just to verify I have the proper settings now this is what shell returns:
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-WebServicesVirtualDirectory | fl *auth*
CertificateAuthentication     :
InternalAuthenticationMethods : {Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
ExternalAuthenticationMethods : {Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
LiveIdSpNegoAuthentication    : False
WSSecurityAuthentication      : True
LiveIdBasicAuthentication     : False
BasicAuthentication           : False
DigestAuthentication          : False
WindowsAuthentication         : True
[PS] C:\Windows\system32>Get-AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory | fl *auth*
InternalAuthenticationMethods : {Basic, Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
ExternalAuthenticationMethods : {Basic, Ntlm, WindowsIntegrated, WSSecurity}
LiveIdSpNegoAuthentication    : False
WSSecurityAuthentication      : True
LiveIdBasicAuthentication     : False
BasicAuthentication           : True
DigestAuthentication          : False
WindowsAuthentication         : True
Do you have any additional suggestions that I can try? From what I can tell my authentication methods all match the default settings now.
Edit: As soon as I changed EWA to just Basic Authentication as it says in the linked default settings I would get an error when trying to browse to the EWA that said "Outlook failed to initialize" and re-adding the Windows Authentication, then running iisreset
fixed the issue. Therefore EWA is the only service with non-default authentication methods now.

SBS2008 in combination with Outlook 2013 keeps asking for credentials

I've got a SBS 2008 server with windows 7 pro clients.
Some of them use outlook 2010 and some use 2013.
The users which use the 2013 version has a problem with saving of the credentials.
Every time they start outlook 2013 they will be asked for credentials and some of them 5 times before it starts.
The weird thing is: if you click ESC to close the screen that asks for the credentials, outlook still connects to the mailbox.
Is there someone who can tell me how to fix this problem.

Hi Willy-Billy,
Any update? Would you please let me know the current situation of this issue?
In addition, would you please let me confirm something more?
Please check if problematic user accounts access mailbox correctly via OWA.
If you create a new outlook profile for a problematic account, will encounter the same issue?
As mentioned in the link that Robert provided, please check if you enable
Always prompt for logon credentials setting in Outlook 2013.
If you enable this setting, please uncheck and monitor the result.
Meanwhile, please remove the old credential in
Credential Manager, then add again. Please check if this issue still persists.
Please run
SBS 2008 BPA to collect SBS configuration information and analysis. Then check if you can find some clues.

Hope this helps.

Outlook 2010 keeps asking for credentials

Hello,
We have a Exchange 2013 server with outlook 2010 clients wich constanly ask for credentials.
even with the option save credentials on.
The Exchange servers are hosted and the clients are not part of a domain and use Outlook Anywhere.
Outlook 2013 clients do not have this problem.
I tried several things:
-new profile
-rename ProtectSystemProider folder
- dword registry Savecredentials
- removed ProtectSystemProvider registry key
- Removed or edited credential manager accounts
We have this problem on serveral Windows 7 clients and Remote Desktop Server 2008 r2 sessions.
Hope anyone can help me.

Hi Cris,
Please try to clean up the cached credential in your computer. Then fill in with the format of UPN when it prompted for credentials next time and check the Remember my credential to save it. About how to remove cached credentials, please follow these steps:
1. Launch the Credential Manager from Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Credential Manager.
2. In the Generic Credentials section you’ll see a setting for [MS Outlook] which will include your SSO details. Click the downward-pointing arrow to the right of that value.
3. In the expand details, click Remove from vault. Then Outlook will no longer have a stored copy of your password.

ITunes keep asking for credentials

Hi all, I have an IronPort S170, with latest version and updates.
We have a lot of users using itunes to sync Apple devices, the problem is that it allways asks for user & password, several times (really annoying). Can anybody help me solving this issue?
thanks a lot
Best regards.

HI Gonzalo,
I assume you're using NTLM SSO. Pending on you configuration this auth popup is created due inability to authenticate via NTLM for the specific request. It seems there are currently known problems with iTunes and NTLM auth. I found records on apple support communitate reporting version 1.6 of iTunes no longer being able to proper authenticate via NTLM. As workaround you could use e.g. IP surrogates which will keep the users IP authenticated once the first request has been authenticated, e.g. via Internet Explorer. By this iTunes will not require to authenticate again. Also your Domain Controller will be happy to have less auth request.

Web Location URLs for Office 2007 documents (pptx, xlsx, docx) not working

In our current Content Server solution implemented, each content has a Web Location URL and a Native File associated with it. The Web Location URL(for a content in Public security group) is of the following format:
http://ucmurl/groups/public/intranetcontent/CONTENT_ID.doc
So far when a user clicks on this link, they are just presented with an 'Open' 'Save' dialog box, which clearly shows that UCM identifies this file format. So for a Word 2003 document called test.doc, the Open-Save dialog box says:
Name: test.doc
Type: Microsoft Word document..etc.
The behaviour is the same for all Office 2003 documents, pdfs and images. However, it seems like UCM does not identify Office 2007 documents. When I check-in a content - test.pptx, and click on the Web Location URL, it prompts me to Open/Save a 'ZIP' file, which is what UCM does for any unidentified file formats.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
The file formats under configuration manager have been updated to include the following formats with PASSTHRU conversion (since we dont need any conversion on these):
pptx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation
docx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
xlsx: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
The desired functionality is that when the user clicks on web location url, UCM should identify these file formats, and NOT consider them as ZIP files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try these - if you're using IIS. If not, them something similar should fix.
Update IIS to include additional MIME types
Also, if you want to add all of the Microsoft Office 2007 mime-types to IIS in one step you can do this:
1. Stop IIS
2. Edit the metabase XML file (C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml) using a text editor.
3. Search for the <IIsMimeMap Location="/LM/MimeMap" â€¦> element and append the lines below to the MimeMap attribute
.docm,application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12
.docx,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
.dotm,application/vnd.ms-word.template.macroEnabled.12

4. Save the C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\MetaBase.xml file
5. Start IIS
6. Perform Collection Rebuild on Content Server

Office mac keeps asking for license key with fusion drive

I'm posting this in case anyone else is having this trouble where Office for Mac 2011 keeps asking for the license key. I have a later 2013 iMac with Fusion drive and never have been able to use office on this computer without entering the key. In talking with Microsoft they removed office and all the files and reinstalled with no help. In speaking with Apple, they said there is a known issue with Microsoft Office and the Fusion drive and Microsoft is working on a patch. Evidently the fusion drive moves the files around and to Microsoft that looks like new hardware so it prompts for the key. Realy annoying! Microsoft

I'm a certified Apple consultant and I recently hit this issue at an installation. On seven iMacs with the Fusion drive, I deleted the "Thunderbolt Bridge" interface from the Network System Preference. We then rebooted the computers, entered the product key one more time, and so far, the problem has disappeared and survives subsequent rebootings.
Obviously, if you are frequently networking two Macs using Thunderbolt, this isn't a good long-term solution (though it is easily added back). However, it does appear to work. I have no sound theory as to why it works, except that Office might be interpreting the existence of that bridge as evidence that the software was copied onto a machine instead of properly installed. This is just a wild guess, though.
I have no idea if it will work for others, but hey, the forums are for throwing out these ideas and seeing if one of them sticks for most people. So...there it is.

Outlook 2013 asks for credentials but does not connect for Exchange email, but only when out of office

Hi,
New employee wishes to use his Office 365. Have loaded onto new PC, connected to exchange, loaded his folders, everything is fine.
When he leaves the office and connects at home, he is asked for credentials.
I have tried the usual credentials: [email protected] and domain\user
With each attempt, Outlook displays disconnected
The password is correct, OWA he can log on fine, he has no problem when returning to the office. He has all the correct permissions in AD.
No other user has a problem when away from the office, but every other user is using Office 2010
Advice appreciated.

Hi,
Please make sure the user has enable Outlook Anywhere in Outlook.
To turn on Outlook Anywhere, on the Connection tab, under
Outlook Anywhere, check Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP, and then click
Exchange Proxy Settings. Your Exchange admin must enable this feature and provide you the proxy settings. For more information, please refer:

Outlook 2007 and 2010 on Windows XP keeps asking for password

I have a fresh installation of Exchange 2013 installed on Windows 2012 and the problem is that Outlook 2007 and 2010 which is installed on Windows XP keeps asking for password.
The problem occurs only on Windows XP while on Windows 7 is working fine.
Any help will be appreciated!

Hello
I had similar issue in my environment -Exchange 2010 SP2 UR4-v2 ,DAG 2 MBX servers(MBX1 and MBX2) in production site ,2 CAS in production site ,17 mail box databases , Public folder replicated to all the mailbox servers.
strangely users using outlook 2003 and outlook 2007 were being prompted for user name passwords.
investigations were done as follows
1. test connection status -click on the outlook icon in the lower right of the users desktop.clicked on test connection status ..
2. found that the username was being prompted while attempting to connect to the public folder in MBX1 server.
3. using EMC on the exchange server, changed databases pointing to public folder in MBX1 to public folder in MBX2. This solved the issue for us.however we were not sure of what the exact issue was ..was it public folder corruption in MBX1? .we found
that the users were being prompted for username and password only in outlook 2007 and not in OWA or outlook 2010. this made us rule out possibility of Public folder corruption in MBX1 server.
4.raised a case with microsoft to do a RCA (root cause analysis) . The resolution from them was to change the exchange RPC service on MBX1 from "network service" to "local account" and switch back to "network service".
The reason stated by microsoft is "password cache corruption" .Any ways the problem was solved at the server level.
Hope this helps all of you who have been scratching your head over this issue

Why does App Store on iOS keeps asking for another user's iTunes credentials?

I recently helped a friend activate her iPhone 5. She used to have an iPhone 4S which I helped her do a backup on my Macbook. After backing up her iPhone 4S, I restored her iPhone 5 with the backup. Because her SIM card was not the correct size, I used my own SIM card to activate the phone as well. But now there is a very weird issue where if she downloads certain apps from the App Store, it would ask for my Apple ID credentials instead of her's. I tried signing out of the App Store and having her sign in. But every time I download a certain app, it keeps asking for my credentials. Very strange. Any one know of how to fix this? PS: iCloud is also signed in with her credentials.

Those apps were apparently purchased on the other person's Apple ID or were transferred to your computer from the other person's computer. Those apps are not registered against your Apple ID. Either you use the Apple ID and password of this other person or you purchase the apps using your Apple ID.
It's simple enough to check your Purchases page in the App Store to see if these apps are listed for you.

Onedrive asks for credentials, but only asks email address as office account. Nothing happens !!!

My personal experience with OneDrive is still a nightmare. Onedrive is asking for
credentials, but it is only requesting the account, so there is no place for password. At the end, I can't provide the credential.
If you think that the only solution is to repair, or resync again don’t ask again
because my data files are too much. I can't do this every day.
The repair option is useless because it Syncs again the whole content. Is this repairing?
OMG !!!
Please I need a solution for this.

Just press the "Enter" key instead of the "Next" button. That worked for me.

Excellent Thomas, thanks for the hint, works perfect
Can someone at Microsoft please have a look at this bug, since it's not common behaviour for a button not doing anything

Please uninstall MacKeeper, this is considered malware for OS X. Google it and you will find many many negative things about it. MacKeeper has it's own uninstall utility to uninstall itself, please use it. OS X unlike MS Windows does not need third party apps to keep itself in good shape, no antivirus apps, no "cleaning" apps etc. The very best thing you can do for your computer is keeping it up-to-date by using Software Update and using a small amount of common sense. While there is a very small amount of malware out there for OS X using that common sense part will help, for example don't visit torrent sites and download illegal software, do not download anything from a pop-up that says, "You must..."
In closing about MacKeeper please read this article by one of the more very knowledgeable people on these forums:

Shared Public folders keep on asking for credentials

Hello
My problem is less complex than it might look like, it's just difficult to explain correctly. Now:
I have multiple computers on my home LAN, with various user accounts, without a HomeGroup. They all share some files, have a "Private" network, Public Folder Sharing enabled and "password protected sharing" disabled.
So their configuration is identical.
These computers are 2 Windows 7 PLK computers, one Windows 8.1 ENU, one Windows 8.1 PLK and finally one 8.1 branded by Lenovo. I'll call them 7, 8EN, 8PL and 8B to avoid lenghty phrases. And now the part that makes no sense at all:
Here's my problem: Win7 computers can easily access Win8 shares. It works both ways: all Win8 computers can access the Win7 shares. But... 8EN cannot access the 8B shares without asking for credentials (?!). Those are the same files that are being accessed
with no problem by any Win7 or even WinXP machines. I can't share anything in 8 without making other 8's ask for credentials(but 7 works). Moreover - I can provide a random string as a username and no password and I'll get the access to the Public folders.
So the access is there, but I have to provide any credentials to reach it. Without it, the first try is rejected. It's clearly wrong.
HomeGroup helps. But I don't want a HomeGroup, I switch places often, HG annoys me and finally - I don't want to sound rude but "a proper way is to use a HomeGroup" is not an answer to "why did the sharing between my 8's stopped working while
nobody else seem to have such problems with their 8's, and 7's work fine".
What on earth could possibly make it happen? I reinstalled my Windows 8 and they still cannot communicate with other 8's? Is it the language? but the PLK is just a language pack, the insides are still ENU.
Thank you for any help and have a nice day!

Hi,
Please make sure they are all in same network.
Then check if everyone computer you also turn on below two settings marked as red:

One thing I did notices when I was debugging the problem.
When I removed the office and reinstalled the problem went away for
whole 1 week but then on Monday it start asking for password again which
makes be thing that they is something in group policy which is causing
this.
We are using
- Windows 7
- Office 365 (2013)
- Our emails are being hosted by Microsoft clod
I don't know what else to try or check.

Hi,
Does this issue happen to all clients or a special one?
Please first check if Logon network security under More Settings on the Microsoft Exchange
Security tab is set to a value other than Anonymous Authentication.
In addition, you may also follow this article to troubleshoot the issue:

Office 2007 Outlook Not Accepting User Credentials

I was setting up a user with Outlook 2007 so that he can check his email. The user is a domain user and his AD account is "synced" with his microsoft exchange account (Same password). Simple install, so it should have been straight forward. When
initializing his email account, it asks for his password and username. we input it and hit ok. The box prompts again for the same credentials. It gives me 2 green check marks but the "log on to server" issue does not give me a check mark and continuously
prompts for a username and password. The information is correct....
Things I have done:
I have already removed all of his MS Outlook credentials from credential manager.
I have reinstalled Office 2007.
I have also done other random tips I cannot remember.
Any suggestions?

Anyone have any suggestions to my issue? I attached a picture of the issue.
I also have more details now. After the first time you enter the user credentials the "Remember me" box disappears as shown in the picture. The prompt then continues to ask for credentials. I can access the OWA with the same credentials and there
is an ADF and I can login to the computer with the same credentials...
