2013, Resources do not synch if from MS Project to SharePoint task list

SharePoint and Project Professional 2013.  I am synching MS Project with a SharePoint task list.  Tasks synch just fine, but I continually get the synch error "We can't synch resource 'resourcename' to the tasks list because the resource
does not exist on the SharePoint server.  This resource, and any other resource that doesn't exist in SharePoint, will remain assigned to the tasks in your project plan.".  If I then select one of the tasks in SharePoint, add the same
resource (same spelling), then the resource gets synched to that and all other tasks in the plan (after I choose to use the SharePoint revisions in the popup window).
I am connected to Project Server and this happens for both a simple site synch to MS Project as well as if I use Project in visibility mode.  I am posting to this forum because if I can solve the simple synch to SharePoint resources that will solve
both issues.  We will have lots of PMs managing lots of projects and I would like to be able to synch resources from MS Project if possible.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

I am also getting this issue, but for few resources, I observed that these resources had a special character in their email address / name in active directory.
When I assign a resource from SharePoint it all works fine as mentioned by you.
Even I am not able to find a solution for this.
It would be great if anybody can guide us through this.
Thanks.

  • After "Replace with clip" the original clip can not be deleted from the project - why?

    After using "replace with clip" to replace clip A in the timeline with a new clip B , clip A can not be deleted from the project anymore.
    If you try to delete clip A, you get a warning, that it still has references in one or more sequences.
    If you continue and delete clip A, it seems to be deleted - at first!
    Unfortunately if you save and reopen the project, clip A is restored to folder "Recovered clips".
    It's not possible to really delete it.
    I also did not find a way to unlink clip B from A .
    The only thing you can do, is to revert the change by "Restore Unrendered" in the clip context menu. But that's obviously not helping
    I dont know if this is a bug or a feature. I understand, that it can be useful to undo the "replace clip" function, but why would anyone not want to be able to delete the original clip at all?
    help how to fix this problem is greatly appreciated!
    I use Premiere Pro CC 2014.2 (Win7 64bit)

    I'm sure it has nothing to to with other sequences.
    You can easily reproduce this behaviour:
    1. create a new project
    2. import 2 clips and name them "A" and "B"
    3. put "A" in the timeline
    4. ALT-drag "B" over "A" in the timeline (or right-click "A" in the timeline while selecting "B" in the project files and select "replace with clip ... from bin")
    5. delete "A" from the project files
    6. save and close project
    7. reopen project
    => "A" reappears in "Recovered clips" and can not be deleted.

  • ITunes 10.6.3.25 NOT synching Music from iPod Classic after 6/1/12 date

    I just installed iTunes 10.6.3.25 for Windows after I was notified for the Update. I had already started synch of my iPod Clasic with iTunes when I was notified of this newly available update. So I downloaded and had it installed. But, after the installation was complete, it did not start up the latest version of the iTunes (normally it did in thepast). So, I started the new version of the iTunes. Now, iTunes does not synch any of the songs I had played after June 1, 2012!
    I have restarted iTunes twice but still the songs I have played since after June 1, including the songs I played in my iPod this morning (June 12, 2012), just don'e show up in ITunes under the "LAST PLAYED" column. The last Date  in this column is 6/1/2012!
    I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit OS.
    I'd appreciate any ideas as to what's wrong and what I can do to fic the problem. May be there is a bug of some kind with this new latest version!  Is there a way I can go back to a previous version?
    Thank you so much.

    Is there anyone that can verify they're having this same issue? I called Apple to report the 'glitch' but I'm looking for any others with the same challenge and whether or not you've found a work around.
    Again--I rely heavily on iTunes for business. We use it constantly for live performances...both on it's own and it's integration with Traktor, Serato and DJay
    Thanks Everyone!

  • Markers not showing up from emailed project file.

    I couldn't find an asswer to this but for some reason the clip markers that someone painstakingly put in a Premiere project are now not showing up on my end so i can continue working on the project.
    The project file was uploaded to Creative Cloud and i then downloaded it.
    I have a notion as to why this is, but I'm hoping someone can confirm this and possibly offer a solution to help us out.
    I'm working with .mts files as I shoot onto AVCHD.  So, with those .mts files are corresponding .xmp files in the same folder.  My theory is that the markers get written into the .xmp file and not into the project file somehow.  But interestingly, the markers that were put onto sequences and multi-cam interviews remained.
    Im hoping that if I replace the .xmp files they will show up again.  Can anyone offer some advice here?
    Thanks!

    As noted, Premiere's new Export Markers feature works with only one source at a time. When the Timeline has focus, that could either be the sequence's markers (if no track items are selected) or the markers from a single track item (if only one is selected).
    Unless Jim knows some trick that I'm unaware of, there's no way in PPRO to export the markers from all the constituent clips in one go.
    If you'd like the ability to export markers from multiple project items, please submit a feature request. The more, the merrier.
    The good news is that if you have PPRO CC, you also have Prelude CC, and as noted that app supports exporting markers from multiple selected assets. It gives you the option of writing a separate file for each asset or collecting them all in one file.
    CaptainPincone: would you elaborate on what you mean when you say
    "the in and out points did not match the markers in and out points" -- when you export markers with a clip is selected in the sequence, the timecodes in the marker export file correspond to the markers' timecodes in the master clip, not in the sequence. (If you want the option of having the sequence timecodes used in this scenario, that would be another feature request.)
    "there was no information such as the marker's "Title", or "Comments"? I was the tester on this feature and know of no bugs where any marker's content is not written to the marker export file.

  • Browser enabled InfoPath form not opening in browser from a link in a Task list

    I have a browser enabled InfoPath deployed to SharePoint as a template in a Forms Library. The form opens in the browser when a user navigates to the Form library and clicks New.
    There is an Approval workflow associated with this form which kicks in whenever a new Form is submitted. The workflow creates a task in a task list. The task list shows a Link column which provides the link to open the form. Now, when a user clicks on the
    link (in the Task list), the form always open in InfoPath instead of opening in a browser.
    I see that the URL for the form (http://<Server>/Training/Enrollment%20Forms/<FormName>.xml)  is same in both the Forms Library and Task list link.
    What am I doing wrong or what do I need to do to make the form open in browser from the Task list link.
    Thanks

    This question is asked constantly - we just discussed this last week, I believe - so you can probably find a lot more discussion to help you out if yous earch within this form or browse through the topics.  The reason for your issue is because of
    what you just wrote - the URL is directly to the XML file, so it tries to invoke InfoPath.  Browser forms are rendered by Forms Services, which has a much different URL.  Go click on one of your existing forms, and notice how different the URL is. 
    To get forms to open in the browser when invoked from a different location, you must use this full Forms Services URL.  Built-in workflows only generate a link to the XML file, and since the task in a different list than the form, then it has no idea
    how to open the form in the browser.  Only users who don't have InfoPath installed will see it in the browser automatically.  This is why I generate my own URLs dynamically with custom workflows and don't use OOTB workflows.SharePoint Architect || Microsoft MVP ||

  • Tasks re-sorting in the MPP file when synching with SharePoint task list

    When synchronizing the MPP file with the ShPt task list, we have seen tasks re-sorting in the MPP file.  Very annoying, especially with schedules with a large number of tasks.  Just wondering if anyone has experienced this issue, and if you
    could point me in the right direction for solving it.  FYI, listing below my signature the columns we are synchronizing (in case you know of an issue with one or more of these).
    FYI, we are using MS Project 2013 Pro and SharePoint 2010.  We tried using the synch feature with MSP 2010 and it did not seem to be available.
    Greatly appreciate your help on this topic.  Sincerely,

    Hi,
    The resource is created as a new resource with no security group and no loggin account, meaning it is strictly a resource and not a user. So this resource can be assigned on others projects but cannot connect to PS in any way (thus does not consume a CAL)
    unless you convert it into a user by adding a valid account and a security group.
    Hope this helps,

  • Project Owner not mapping when using Create Project in Ideation Custom list

    I have a custom ideation list in Project Online used for project proposals. When using the Create Project function in the ribbon, I select the mapping from my Project Owner people picker field to map to Project Owner ID. The Project is then created successfully,
    however the Project Owner is listed as the person who clicked the Create Project button in the ribbon, not the name in the Project Owner field. This also occurs when running from SPD workflow. I know in on-premise situation this works as I expect ... is this
    a bug in Project Online?
    Thanks,
    Josh

    Josh,
    Just wanted to say that, I was able to reproduce your issue. It works as expected on-prem, but not as online. I will update once I have more info on any posisble resolution.

  • SharePoint Task List using Workflow for approver chain, gathering information from another list.

    What I have is a Custom List, that got the following fields for each item. 
    ApplicationName(SingleText) OwnerApproval(Person) ManagerApproval(Person) InstallExeuction(Person)
    Example data:
    | ApplicationName: Photoshop
    | OwnerApproval: Mister Blue
    | ManagerApproval: Mister Red
    | InstallExecution: IT Group
    What I have now then, is a task list as well. Where the user can press new task, and type in their PC name (singletext) and a dropdown menu to choose what application they want, for instance Photoshop.
    I'm not trying to make a workflow that starts when a new item is created to send an email to the OwnerApproval set for this specific application, Photoshop, if he approves it, a new email should be sent to ManagerApproval specific application, Photoshop.
    And if the last person ManagerApproval accepts it, a last email should be sent to InstallExecution, which if this person approves the task is marked as completed.
    I've been trying for mad now using SharePoint Designer and I almost got it to work. 
    Can anyone help me? I'm going mad here, I have VERY LIMITED knowledge in sharepoint designer.

    Hi Plankton,
    To achieve this goal, we can create with three Start a task process steps in the workflow and the workflow needs to be set to start when an item is created.
    For example, the custom list is called Custom, and the task list is called Task Custom.
    We can use the Task Status column for showing as Rejected or Excuted/Installed based on the users’ approval, so we need to add Rejected and Excuted/Installed values to the Task Status column. (same settings for Custom:ManagerApproval and Custom:InstallExecution
    as Custom:OwnerApproval with their own column value)
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • ICloud will not synch Calendar from iPhone to iMac

    I have a new iMac and an iPhone 4. iCloud works when synching my iMac to my iPhone, however it won't synch new calendar entries on my iPhone to my iMac. How can I fix this problem?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check the calendar you are entering events into is an iCloud calendar, only iCloud calendars will sync.
    If you are sure you are using the correct calendar try turning off calendar syncing (settings > iCloud) restarting the phone and enabling syncing again.

  • Missing (most, but not all) masters from managed project

    I just found that I have a one project in my library where most of the raw master files (NEF) are missing. The project contains 160 photos, but only 14 masters are present and these are randomly distributed in the project (not sequential files). My entire library is managed (not referenced). All photos were imported at one time.
    All the edited versions appear in the browser with no problem, including the "full" version and the Quick Preview ("P"). Oddly, when I press "M" to view the master image, it displays correctly with no adjustments, but the message "Master Image not Found" appears where it would normally say "Master Image." I only noticed the masters were missing when I tried to export a version and got the follwing message:
    "Versions with unavailable master files cannot be exported. The selected master image is either offline or not found. Please reconnect it and try again."
    I searched in the library and vaults for original the filenames, but they do not exist in either location. If all the masters were missing, I would have concluded that I imported that project as a referenced file and later deleted the masters, but 14 of the 160 are still there.
    I have two questions:
    First, does anyone have any idea how the master files could be deleted so I can avoid this in the future? I am beginning to think this is simply a corruption of the database (not reassuring).
    Second, is there any way to recover the versions that clearly exist in the project so I can reimport these as masters? While viewing them in the browser, I can zoom in to the original resolution on both the master and the edited version, but can't perform any further edits to the image (although I can add metadata). I'd be happy to retrieve a JPEG version, even though it appears I have lost the original raw file.
    By the way, I have already performed all three library repair options on Aperture launch (Repair Permissions, Repair Database and Rebuild Database).
    Thanks for any help,
    Dave

    From the OP's other thread:
    I have three vaults (on three HDs) backing up one Aperture library (two onsite and one for offsite backup). Two of the vaults simultaneously became corrupted and I could no longer back up to them.
    That plus the live library seems like 3 to me.
    You wrote:
    With managed-Masters one can back up a broken Library to a dozen perfect drives and all that results is a dozen identically broken Libraries.
    Which is why backing up without verify the backup is a meaningless exercise.  This goes for any backup method, How do you know your TM or CCC backup or simple copy of your masters is good?
    If the Masters are backed up prior to Aperture the problem resolves (versions still lost).
    And this is true also for managed libraries.
    If (backed up) Referenced Masters are used and the Library becomes corrupt the problem resolves (versions still lost).
    Not sure what you are trying to say here.
    Proper use of Vaults also save Versions, but only prior to the time that the Library became corrupted - and we do not necessarily know the instant a Library becomes corrupt.
    Proper use of vaults also saves masters if the library is managed. Ans see above for why we verify backups.
    Look I agree that the masters need to be backed up in other than the vault (or TM or CCC or any one place). I use the Aperture  backup  dialog in the input window:
    But once the masteres are backed-up referenced masters has no inherent saftey advantage over managed masters. In fact if all you do is backup before import and then place the masters on their own disk they are slightly less secure as they are only in two places.
    In my operation I have my masters in three places, the import backup location the library and the vault I create from that library. In fact I have multiple vaults so in fact I have my masters in a minimum of 5 places. And its all fairly transparent.
    So continue to sing the praise of referenced masters, for some and in some situations they are the way to go But from a security standpoint they have no advantage over managed masters.

  • Project Site's Tasks List not sync

    Hello,
    It seems I am having an issue with Project Site's Tasks List as it doesn't sync with the Project Plan/Schedule in Project Online.
    In all of the instances, the setting in PWA Settings/Connected SharePoint Sites: "Sync Enterprise Projects tasks to Tasks List" is always checked.
    The thing is that it used to work fine: whenever I published a new project, whether it was "Automatically create a site on first publish" or "Allow users to choose", the Tasks Lists were successfully synced.
    Recently I have removed/deleted the existing connected project site and created a new one based on default Project Site templates, meaning the synchronizable lists (Risks, Issues, Tasks etc.) must remain. Now the sync problem occurred for both newly published
    projects and existing projects. The Project Site's Tasks List appeared empty although it was locked for edit in PWA. I though the sync would have run overnight, but it didn't.
    Does anyone have any clues about this and how it can be fixed?
    Thanks,
    Linh

    Linh,
    What is the task list you see under the column Server Settings >> Connected SharePoint Sites,
    under the columns Tasks List, when you use the default template?
    More over, is this is a new project or an old project? I think there is an issue if yo turn off and turn
    the sync option again for existing projects. May be it applies to projects that you delete and recreate project site for?

  • Sharepoint 2013, MS Project 2013 - Task List not updating when the project file is changed

    Hi
    I have created a SharePoint task list and timeline from a MS Project 2013 file on my PC. I have then created a new Project file from that task list which then places the new project file in the site asset folder and provides me with a synced copy. I now
    only use the SharePoint copy of the project file in my MS Project as any change I make to the project file should be reflected in the Task list and vice-versa
    However if I add some tasks into the middle of the project with MS project, the SharePoint Task list is not updated to show these additional tasks. If I open the SharePoint task list with MS Project - from the task list toolbar - the project file shows the
    added tasks.....so the MS Project file in the site asset folder is correct  but the tasks in the SharePoint task list is not being updated
    Anyone seen this before ?
    Thanks
    Geoff

    Hi Esben,
    According to your description, the error occurred when opening the task list with the content approval enabled in Project.
    Per my knowledge, when we enable the content approval for the task list, the field named Approval Status which is required will be created in the list.
    However, if a project plan doesn’t contain a field that is required in SharePoint, the plan won’t sync.
    The error occurs because of the required field Approval Status when the content approval is enabled in the task list, so we need to add the required field as a custom field in Project.
    More information:

  • My MBA does not start up from sleep

    My MBA 13" mid 2013 (Mavericks) does not start up from sleep at times, or at least is very slow (1-2minutes)
    As far as i remeber the only thing installed fairly resent is Virual Box.
    It does connect to my iPhone when its connected to via USB but the sceen stays black.
    Anybody else with this problem?

    Hi bryan808-
    It could be that the failure and installation of the update are simply a coincidence.
    Back up. Then try removing all PCI cards and disconnect all external devices except your monitor, keyboard, and mouse. If that configuration will wake from sleep then start adding devices and/or cards one at a time until you find the culprit that keeps your machine from waking.
    If you are really running a G4 you will have better luck posting in the appropriate section of that forum: Ctegory: Power Mac G4

  • QM Notification: task end dates not pulled through from response profile

    Hello,
    I am experiencing a problem with the end dates of the tasks in QM notifications not pulling through (from the response profile) when tasks are determined.
    When I do the simulation of task determination, the gantt chart shows all the tasks together with the end dates. But when the actual determination is done these dates are not populated in the planned finish date fields.
    I have double checked the configuration: priorities, response and service profiles are set up correctly. I have also searched SAP notes without success.
    I thank you in advance for your responses.
    Kind regards,
    Theo.

    Yes, I know, but as far as I understand binding the values back from rule to the workflow is something that doesn't work. I have never tried it, but I have seen posts here about people complaining that this kind of binding does not work.
    Have you tried to bind for example some hard coded value back to the workflow (something that should definately work)? Does it work? If not, I suggest you to ask this from SAP that is it supposed to work and if not, why do they have this option to for binding from rule to workflow. Or then just forget what you are trying, and use some of the suggested workarounds.
