After applying FQDN with SSL sharepoint2010 document library's document open as Read Only

Hi,
we have sharepoint server 2010 installed in windows server 2008 R2. We build a document library. After that we installed Office Web Apps. Now,edit in Browser or edit in word/excel etc. all options are working fine.
After that, we configured the site with FQDN (Fully Qualified Doman Name) with SSL. Now, the
edit in browser mode is working fine form both server and client machine (for both windows and form based users).
But, When we are trying toedit in word or other office application mode, the files open as Read Only mode (both from server and client machine).
The users cannot save the file.
After trouble shooting a lot, we found many forum says to edit windows registry or do some other operation on client machine. But, in our case it is not possible to edit registry or do some other experiment on every client's machine.
Is their any option to solve the problem from server end, so that each client automatically can open the office files on their own PC and save them to server (instead of re uploading the files to server )?
Please, help us to give the suggestion for solving our problem.
Thanks,

Is Alternate Access Mappings configured correctly? Is the behavior consistent across different browsers? What are you seeing in ULS logs when the document is being opened from the library?

Why do my Microsoft Word documents open as read-only

I am having trouble saving my Word documents as they are opening in read-only mode. I cannot find a setting to change the way my Word documents are opening.

Amy, are you reffering to the 'reading mode' in Word, which it uses when you open a Word document that was attached to a message?
There are instructions on [http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/2013/06/10/disable-reading-mode-and-protected-view-in-word-2013/ how to disable that] although it's not in the scope of Thunderbird.
Hope this helps!

Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Help with a fcpx library that is locked "could not be opened. Read-only file system"

Hi all,
I recently moved all my fcpx projects/events to a new Harddrive - I thought I did this correctly by copying/duplicating all projects/events from within FCPX.
When I last used FCPX all the projects/events were there - no issues. Also, when I look at package contents - everything is still there in terms of events and file sizes.
All the library files are on an external hard drive, on an encrypted disk image. Now a week later I have tried to open FCPX and I get the following error
"The document “MND_Z_FCPX” could not be opened. Read-only file system" and nothing will open.
Have checked permissions - these all seem in order. OSX is10.9.5
Any suggestions as to what might be the issue?
Thanks in advance.
R

the permissions themselves look ok - they have my two computer profiles as read/write. I also note that on some occasions the library has opened in my other Computer profile, but not in the one that I want it to open.
So I think you're right, there is something with permissions happening here. I keep a work and personal computer profile.
Don't know how it happened - but the volume is definitely Read Only - even though I've created a Read/Write permissions for it

Change/ Hide document library "Add Document" Button

Hello ,
I have create a document library and document template . I got some requirement like :
User don't want document upload option after clicking on "New Document" Button , Instead of that When the user will click on "New Document" button it should open Document Template which I have created already .
Thank you

That template exists when you click the new dropdown from the ribbon and then select your template. If you want to change this, the easiest way is to just hide the toolbar (which holds the new button), then add a custom link that goes to the template.

GPO settings - documents in sharepoint 2007 sometimes open in read-only mode - needs IE reset to fix

Hi,
We've got an intranet running on SharePoint 2007.
We also enforce alot of group policies to our users.
But there is a problem that keeps reoccuring:
On random moments, when a user tries to edit a document on any random document library in SP 2007, it gets opened in read-only mode.
The only temporary fix we found for this is resetting the IE settings in Internet Options -> 'tab' advanced -> Reset IE settings... and pressing Reset.
We think it is some GPO setting that we have malconfigured or forgot to configure and we hope that someone could point us in a direction to troubleshoot or even solve this.
Thanks in advance for reading and providing help.

Hello,
I also suspect that there might be issue with IE plug-in so could you confirm that? you can also tell su what plug-in you see in IE.

SP2013 and Project 2013 - project files open in read-only mode with no options to edit only Save As

Hi all,
Environment:
SharePoint 2013 (15.0.4420.1017) RTM
Windows 8 - Project 2013 (15.0.4433.1506) 32Bit
Issue details:
When opening .mpp files stored within SharePoint they are opened successfully within Project 2013 however they are opened in Read-Only mode with no options to edit/check out only Save As. The
same outcome is experienced if you click the document link within SharePoint or you chose to edit from the document menu.
Opening the file through windows explorer also opens only in read-only mode.
To date we’ve tested the following
Windows 7 – Office 2010 = working as expected
Windows 8 – Office 2010 = working as expected
Windows 7 – Office 2013 = opening as read only, no prompt to edit
Windows 8 – Office 2013 – opening as read only, no prompt to edit
Current thinking is that it is an issue with either the SharePoint Office Documents Class ActiveX control or Project 2013 itself interacting with SharePoint 2013.
We have tested this in multiple SP2013 environments with the same outcomes.
The workaround therefore is to save locally and then upload again which is not ideal.
Unable to find an exact issue match to this.
Any help with this appreciated.

Hi Dan,
For us after investigating this further it was found that using the document menu to edit or checkout and then edit results in the project file being opened in read-only mode.
The same issue was present for Visio files.
Using the FILES ribbon menu results in the document being opened in edit mode successfully in both Project and Visio.
Please note that we found that this issue only exists within document libraries where checkout is required to edit which was our case. If checkout is not required the document
menu can also be used as expected.
Cheers,
Dan

Word 2007 - documents open in read only mode

Got a couple of users who are getting this issue. When they want to open some documents from a file share, it opens as read only (this is random) - comes up with a prompt saying that this file is locked for editing by another user. If they close
it, wait a few minutes then it opens fine and they can edit it. It has nothing to do with permissions and no one else has this document open.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply.
Anything is welcome at this point.
And yes, I did try both through PowerShell and through the Unlocker and the behavior is pretty much the same. If the item is checked in, there is no trace that it is locked, if I Check it Out (the only thing I can really do with it) it shows as "LongTerm"
but then throws the same exception
Unlocking...
Error occurred. Details:
Save Conflict
Your changes conflict with those made concurrently by another user. If you want your changes to be applied, click Back in your Web browser, refresh the page, and resubmit your changes.

The method UpdateItemCheckoutExpiration sounds insteresting though.

Document will only open in read-only mode

I created a .pdf document from a Word document in Adobe Acrobat Professional 10.1.1. When I open the .pdf it will only open in read-only mode. I want to change the security settings to prevent editing before I send it out but the File>Properties>Security>>Security Method is greyed out and set to "No Security." I have tried certifying and signing the document and even placing in a secure envelope with no luck.
Help.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you Dave.
From MS Word, I am choosing Save as Adobe PDF. In the Save window I reviewed the "Options..." and found PDF Options including
Convert document information (checked)
Create PDF/A-1a:2005 compliant file (not checked)
Enable Accessibility and Reflow with tagged Adobe PDF (checked)
Apply Security (not checked)
Create Bookmarks (checked)
Convert Comments (not checked)
I checkmarked Apply Security and attempted to save the document, however, received the following error:
PDFMaker cannot apply security when PDF/X or PDF/A compliant job option is selected.
I do not have the Create PDF/A-1a:2005 compliant file box checked so I'm not sure why I'm getting that error.

It is possible to apply redo while the standby is open in read only mode ?

Hi,
I am using Oracle 11g R2 (11.2.0.1.0)
Step 1: Two node RAC is Configured.
Step 2: One node Data Guard RAC is configured.( i,e Standby is one node RAC).
Primary:
SQL> select open_mode,database_role,PROTECTION_MODE,PROTECTION_LEVEL from v$database;
OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
READ WRITE PRIMARY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
Standby:
SQL> select open_mode,database_role,PROTECTION_MODE,PROTECTION_LEVEL from v$database;
OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
READ ONLY WITH APPLY PHYSICAL STANDBY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
Question:
I have not purchased active dataguard license.
In my case In Data Guard RAC it is possible to apply redo while the database is open in read only mode?
Thanks

"READ ONLY WITH APPLY" in V$DATABASE.OPEN_MODE means Active Data Guard is enabled.
Oracle code cannot check if you have the right license: it is up to you to know which license you have for your database environments.

Document open in read only mode

All users who are opening documents (excel, word ). When the read-only or edit prompt comes up they click edit. When the document opens up it opens as read-only and they are unable to save thier changes.
The server is sharepoint 2010. The client is Office 2010.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Lital

I found the problem.
I had this lines in the web.config that cause the problem:
<verbs allowUnlisted="true">
<add verb="OPTIONS" allowed="false" />
<add verb="PROPFIND" allowed="false" />
</verbs>
I added them because I had problem with anonymous users with office 2013 - when they try to open document that is open for anonymous they get login screen and when they do esc the doc open.
What can I do do fix that?
Thanks!

Documents opening as read only

Since migrating to win 7 all word documents copied to iomega ix4-200 opening as read only--how do we fix this!
There are 4 of us using the iomega as a shared storage and it has become a real problem. We did not have this problem before win 7 and it is not happening to every single word file every time but is happening way too often. Don't know if it is a word setting issue or the Iomega not liking win 7.

Hi jwbennet, welcome to the forums,
sounds like some of the documents were possibly copied to the drive from a write protected drive similar to a closed cd or dvd; when written to cd or dvd files will become write protected.
Please try the following; click on a, or select multiple, folder(s) and right click on them, then select properties. Ensure that the Attributes - Read Only box is empty and then apply the change.
Hope this helps.

How to give link to SharePoint 2013 document library column to open its form?

Hi All,
I have Infopath document library form, now i want to give link to a specific column to its own item. How to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

Hi Sam,
To make the custom field to act as the Name field in the list view, I recommend to use JSLINK to achieve what you want.
Below is the code example for the js file:
(function () {
var overrideCtx = {};
overrideCtx.Templates = {};
overrideCtx.Templates.Fields = {
'Services': { 'View' : CustomLink }
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
function CustomLink(ctx){
var link = ctx.CurrentItem["FileLeafRef"];
var value =ctx.CurrentItem["Services"]
var html="";
if(value!="")
{var html= "<a href='"+link+"'>"+value+"</a>";}
return html;
After writing the js file, you need to upload the file to SharePoint and then refer to it in the list view web part.
