Problem with Excel 2013 on W8 and WD NAS

With my W8 laptop, I get a lot of problem saving excel file on my NAS. I get "we can't save filename.xlsx because the file is in read-only. To keep your changes you'll need to save the workbook with a new name or in a different location..."
I'm alone using the file. Not being use by anyone else.
Exemple: load file "A" from the NAS, can't save it back on the NAS. I save it as "B" on my desktop. Open "B" do some change and try to save it... get " that someone else is using the file....
Only way is to save it one a 3rd name...
I have this issue often but not all the time..
Don't see this with W7pro laptops...
Thank you 

Hi FGauthier,
Have you ever try to save Document ,PPT file or Text file to the NAS? Does this issue only occurs with excel file?
what will happen if you copy the file to NAS instead of use the 'save as' feature within excel?
When you open the excel file, if it flagged as read-only, try to right-click the file, check if the read-only option is ticked. Also you can try to save the file as different file format to test this issue.
Also please check if you enable the preview pane, try to disable it . 
a) Open File Explorer.
b) Click on View Tab.
c) Click on Preview Pane to view\hide it.

  • Problem with Excel 2013 TaskPane

    Hello,
    I got problem with TaskPane on Excel 2013. With Excel 2007 and 2010 my program works perfectly.
    I'm opening a workbook and making custom ribbon, but my workbook is hided and the problem comes that first time i can see TaskPane but after any other workbook opening and closing i can't show TaskPane because Globals.ThisAddIn.SarasuTaskPane.Visible
    = true don't showing me TaskPane. Actual it's showing but we can't see it because it's hided with workbook, and if i unhide workbook i can see and use it. But i need my main workbook to be not visible for all time and users must see TaskPane.
    I will try write step by step.
    1. I'm launching .exe which creating excel object
    2. With Excel object I'm opening .xlsm which sheets are protected and not visible, and Run my Sub
    3. That Sub loads my COM AddIn, and opens another .xlsm file (at the moment there are 2 .xlsm files opened)
    4. My Add-in creates TaskPane, and TaskPane adds on my first .xlsm file(i noticed), and it's fine i can see it. But then i try some of my functions which sets TaskPane visible - false, and opens another .xlsx file then closes it, and trying to do TaskPane visible
    - true no errors but also no TaskPane, then i Manually unhide my first Workbook i can see the TaskPane, when i hide it manualy - TaskPane hides too.. and this only on Excel 2013.
    Any ideas to solve this? As i mention before with Excel 2007 and 2010 no problems it's works perfectly.
    sincerely,
    Julius

    I have used you code to hide a panel , it works fine
    Maybe my first post was incorrectly written. I will try write step by step.

  • Error Message: "Excel cannot complete this task with available resources" when creating pivot table with Excel 2013

    Hi, 
    One of our users encountered this problem with Excel 2013 while creating pivot tables, particularly with large files. We tried to modify Virtual Memory
    of the pc but error still persist. Why does this happen and how can we resolve this? Thanks.
    Another error message encountered by the user, this time when opening large files. The files she tried to open are working fine in 2010. But when opened in 2013, it prompted : "There
    isn't enough memory to complete this action. Try using less data or closing other applications."

    Hi,
    In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
    Did your user using the Excel 2013 and Excel 2010 with same PC? If not, please let me know the both of the 2 PCs' hardware list/Windows operation system info.
    Did you using Excel 2013 32bit version and Excel 2010 64bit version?
    General speaking, this issue usually occurs with Office 2013 32 bit version. It has a limitation of 2Gb of memory that can be used by its process. And the 64-bit Excel can handle larger workbooks.
    Thus, if your user using 32bit Excel, I recommend try 64bit Excel instead.
    Here is a similar issue, we also could try it:

  • Problem with Word 2013 through VPN

    Hello,
    From several weeks my company has a problem
    with Word 2013 when laptop is connected to the network
    via VPN.
    Symptoms:
    - Word 2013 is opening very slow (even
    opening a blank card)
    - there are no matter if I try to open blank page or network files
    - All other Office 2013 components are working fine (Excel, Powerpoint etc).
    - When I disconnect from a VPN, Word is opening properly.
    It is not a problem with VPN because:
    - Word is opening locally (not network files)
    - before we had Word 2010 and it was working smoothly
    Does anyone know a similar case
    and could help solve this problem?
    Regards,
    Pawel

    Hi,
    "- before we had Word 2010 and it was working smoothly" -
    Word 2013 might deal with documents in different ways.
    Since Word will open properly when you disconnect from a VPN, you might want to start by analyzing the network traffic, VPN connections.
    Please try to check the option "Copy remotely stored files onto your computer and update the remote file when saving" in
    FILE>Options>Advanced>Save section, and then verify result.
    The other thing to check is add-ins. I'd suggest you to start Word in safe mode and see if issue persists:
    Press Win + R and type "winword /safe" in the blank box, then press Enter.
    Thanks,

  • Small file get extremely big after saving with Excel 2013

    A file who is only 666Kb big with Excel 2007 is opened with Excel 2013. When I direct safe that file, the size increases to more than 6GB. Opening that file takes more than one minute. And Excel seems to crasch.(Not responding) The problem seems to be one
    (1) sheet. when I delete rows the size of that file is increasing up to 16 GB. This means a less filed excel sheet, makes a bigger file.

    Hi,
    The issue seems happened in the special file and it may be caused by the conditional formatting, cell format, formula calculation automatic or macros,ect. Please see the thread which some communicators discussed:
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2007-excel/why-do-my-excel-files-become-huge/8235dc08-aa70-4a65-9892-b776790d79c5?page=1
    Then, we may try the Mr. Ashish's suggestion:
    =====
    1. Identify the last filled up row of data and click on any cell in one row below that
    2. Select from that row till the end and delete all rows
    3. Do the same for columns
    4. Save and close the file
    5. Shut down MS Excel
    6. Reopen the file
    =====
    If the issue still exists, please copy all the content to new/blank Excel 2013 file to test.

    Hi Mahi,
    Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
    I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
    1) What about the negative values?
    if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
    2)How can we align header or data?
    Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
    3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
    Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
    Please help.
    Many Thanks,
    Pragati

  • How To Make Shapes Change Colors When Clicking on them. Example Sheet Sales Data.xlsx template with Excel 2013

    My question is related to the Sales Data.xlsx template that comes with Excel 2013
    IN this workbook is a sheet named Sales Data. It has, 3 shapes. One each for each of the tab sheets in the workbook. When I click on the 'Sales Report' shape it selects the sales report tab. When you do this the shape changes color and the 'Sales Data' shape
    also changes color.
    However I'm unable to figure out how the colors are changing. 
    I don't see any macros in the workbook/worksheet. Nor do I see any code for worksheet events. I don't see any modules in VBA either. I think what is happening is that there are 2 shapes. When you click on one, the one shape goes to the background and the
    other one comes to the foreground.
    I'm no sure how it's doing that. 
    Can someone look at this template, Sales Data.xlsx that comes with Excel and explain how this functionality works?
    Thank You
    Keith Aul
    Keith Aul

    The shapes are exactly as I suspected, each of 3 sheets has 3 'navigation' shapes. The shape with the same name as the sheet has no hyperlink and is coloured differently to indicate it refers to the active sheet. The other two have hyperlinks linked to respective
    sheets. 3x3 shapes, 9 in total, none of them ever change colour!
    It's logical though not necessary to name each shape same as the sheet it links to, but they'd work just as well with their original default names.
    For aesthetics, the shapes that refer to own sheet have a horizontal line on top, actually two shapes as a group.
    If still confused copy each set of 3 shapes to a 4th sheet, or open two new windows so you can see all three sheets at the same time.
