Add SharePoint 2013 On-Premise to Add a Place in Office 2013

We are in the process of rolling out SharePoint 2013 on-premise to all users in our organization. As part the roll-out we are also upgrading users to Office 2013. Unfortunately, we have difficulty explaining to users how to Save As to SharePoint the first
time. Until a user saves to SharePoint the first time this option is not available from the Save As screen. Per the post here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/12a2fd07-a5db-4637-b4bd-ed9711542ea3/option-save-as-sharepoint-missing-in-office-2013?forum=officesetupdeploy
The "solution" is to have a user open an existing file and save back to SharePoint. This is all well and good if there is content to access unfortunately this is not a manageable process for new users on a blank site. Is it possible to Add an entry
through GPO, GPP, or directly to the registry to provide the Save to SharePoint, Save to Network Location or alternatively to the Add a Place options?
I understand that Microsoft is pushing for everyone to move to the cloud but this user experience between two Microsoft products (Office and SharePoint) is extremely cumbersome. I appreciate any assistance anyone can provide. Thank you.

Other option i am thinking,
Map a Drive to SharePoint site and then set that location as default location. May be this work.

  • Add new document link not working in upgraded sharepoint 2013?

    Hello there,
    Upgraded SharePoint team sites from 2010 to 2013. add new document link not working for shared document in upgraded sharepoint 2013?. it is specially not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this sharePoint server and it
    is working fine with environment  Office web apps not configured with Sharepoint.
    Looking resoluion /suggestion, thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sushil

    Hi  Sushil,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the add new document link was not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this SharePoint server after you upgraded SharePoint team sites
    from 2010 to 2013.
    For your issue, it can be caused by integrating Office Web Apps with upgraded SharePoint Site.
    Firstly please make sure claims-based authentication is used by the SharePoint web application that is used to create the new document. Only web applications that use claims-based authentication can open
    files in Office Web Apps. To determine the authentication provider for a web application, follow these steps:
    1.In SharePoint 2013 Central Administration, click Manage web applications.
    2.Select the web application that you want to check, and click Authentication Providers on the ribbon.
    The authentication provider must be displayed as Claims Based Authentication for Office Web Apps to work correctly with the web application. To resolve this issue, you can delete the web application and recreate
    it using claims-based authentication, or you can change the authentication method of the web application.
    Secondly, make sure the WOPI zones match on the SharePoint 2013 and the Office Web Apps Server farm.
    To do this, run the following command on the SharePoint Server:
    Get-SPWopiZone
    The result will be one of the following:.
    internal-https
    internal-http
    external-https
    external-http
    Next, run the following command on the SharePoint Server.
    Get-SPWOPIBinding
    In the output, look for WopiZone: zone. If the results from Get-SPWopiZone don’t match the zone that is returned by Get-SPWOPIBinding, run the Set-SPWOPIZone -Zone cmdlet on the SharePoint Server to change
    the WOPI zone to match the result from Get-SPWOPIBinding.
    If not work, you can try to disconnect SharePoint 2013 from Office Web Apps Server and re-configure Office Web Apps for SharePoint 2013.
    For more information, please refer to the article:

  • How do I add multiple audio webparts to a page in SharePoint 2013?

    I need to add multiple media player webparts with audio files to a page in SharePoint 2013 so users can click the play button, listen to the file, then vote for the audio they like best. The problem is I can only get one audio to play at a time, and only
    in certain browsers. I can get them to work intermittently in a Chrome browser, but not IE 10. When I publish the page and click the play arrow, it played the first time. Then I added two more audio player webparts to the page, and linked them to different
    audio files (m4a and mpg). Now only one audio player will work, not the other 2.

    Have you used this codeplex webpart

  • Add button to SharePoint 2013 form with InfoPath and/or SharePoint designer

    Since I am new to working with Sharepoint 2013, I have the following questions to ask you about Infopath 2013 and possibly SharePoint Desinger 2013:
    1. Yesterday I created a custom list in my 'test area of SharePoint' and opened the list in Infopath 2013 to see what the form would look like. Now I have alot more columns and edits to add to the list. I am planning to add more columns to the list when
    I am in my 'test area' and then make cosmetic changes to the form using Infopath 2013. I am thinking that if I continue this way, I may lose some ediut changes I have made using Infopath 2013. Thus can you tell me the best way to add more columns to the list
    and/or modify the existing columns and not lose the edit changes that I made using Infopath 2013?
    2. The infopath 2013 form does not contain any buttons to click. I need a button to show up for every user to click so that a workflow can be started. Do I need some kind of a task list(action)? Thus can you tell me how to add this type of a button to the
    form?

    Wendy, Please go through this video from
    channel 9 (http://channel9.msdn.com/Blogs/NickDallett/InfoPath-2010-Customize-a-SharePoint-List-Form)  which will uilding froom explain similar form building from scratch.
    As per Peter's replay yes you can update form even after add columns in list and you can add extar control like button to your infopath form.
    Workflows are usually started when creating or updating an item inside a SharePoint document library. 
    Open the workflow in SharePoint Designer and under "Start Options' on the workflow's home page, remove the check from "Start workflow manually...". Be sure the check either "Start on create..." or "Start on change...". In
    your case I think you would use "Start on create...".
    Hope these inputs will help

  • How to disable Add New Item in SharePoint 2013

    Hi,
    I want to disable the Add New Item button after the user created one item in SharePoint 2013.
    Is it possible to disable?
    Please reply
    Thank you

    I'd do it creating a custom web part that would mimic the list web part, and have logic in there that makes sure to hide the button once an entry by the current user has been made in the list. You could also create a workflow that would remove the user's
    permission to add a new item on the list upon creating an item.

  • Only Able To Add One File At A Time From Mapped SharePoint (2013) Drive to Outlook (2010) E-mail

    I am using SharePoint 2013. I have mapped several network drives. When adding files off SharePoint to an Outlook email, I can only add one file at a time. I can add multiple files IF they are not on SharePoint (e.g., stored locally, or on Dropbox); Previously,
    when using SharePoint 2010, I was able to upload multiple files. 
    ANy advice?
    Thanks. 

    Hi,
    There are two methods to add multiple files from SharePoint library to outlook emails:
    Sync SharePoint library to outlook via “Connect to Outlook”, then you will find SharePoint Lists in outlook. Locate the library folder, you could select multiple items and drag them to an email.
    Open SharePoint library via “Open with Explorer”, then you could selected multiple files and drag them to an email.

  • Deploying simple SharePoint 2013 feature causing error: "Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': An unknown exception occurred while executing a sandboxed code solution request in the worker process."

    When trying to deploy a sandboxed solution containing only a feature with a simple associated event receiver from VS 2013, I'm getting the following error:
    Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': An unknown exception occurred while executing a sandboxed code solution request in the worker process.\r\n|0
    I'm working in Visual Studio 2013, deploying to SharePoint 2013.
    The SharePoint project is very basic. I've only added a feature and an associated event receiver. It works without the event receiver. Then after I simply add the event receiver I get the error.
    I've tried deploying directly from VS 2013 as well as publishing to a .WSP and uploading via web interface. Same error reported using both methods. I'm doing this using an Administrator account that I've confirmed is a site collection administrator.
    Additionally, I've found that if I change Sandboxed Solution to False, deploy it, retract it, then change Sandboxed Solution back to True, then I can successfully deploy it. But this doesn't seem to be a permanent solution as the error will resurface a day
    or two later...

  • In SharePoint 2013 navigation, is it possible to add a custom link only to the left-hand menu without getting it in to the top menu dropdown?

    If I want to add a custom link to the left-hand navigation menu In a SharePoint 2013 sub-site, it can be done by visiting
    Site Settings à Navigation section and adding the link under
    Structural Navigation: Editing and Sorting section. However, this will automatically add a matching link to the top menu as a dropdown.
    (Note that Global Navigation is set to “Display the same navigation items as the parent site” where “Parent is using Structural Navigation.” and Current Navigation is set to “Structural Navigation:
    Display only the navigation items below the current site”)
    Is there a way to just add a custom link only to the left-hand menu without getting it in to the top menu dropdown?

  • Difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013

    Hi, We are building company site with Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise Edition and were wondering what is the difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013? What are the roles/purposes of each one? What
    happens if only Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode  installed or vise versa.
    Thank you in advance

    Reporting Services in SharePoint mode is a service for displaying, managing, and creating SSRS reports within SharePoint. The addin is a pre-req for SharePoint that is used to display reports and is required for Reporting Services in Native or SharePoint
    mode, but does not by itself do anything.
