App V 5.0 Sequence - Lync 2013 Client

Hello,
Could you please help me find sequencing steps to virtualize Lync 2013 Client (Basic/Enterprise) using App-V 5.0 SP2?
Regards,
Srinivasa Prasad

Follow that link for advice on how to download Office click-to-run and convert it to an App-V package...
When I did this, I set the Product ID in the CustomConfig.xml file as ProPlusVolume and used ExcludeApp tags to exclude all apps except for Lync:
Access
Excel
Groove
InfoPath
OneNote
Outlook
PowerPoint
Project
Publisher
SharePointDesigner
Visio
Word
Here is the info on how to configure this file:

I believe it is also possible to set the Product ID to Lync, but not sure of the exact value to set and I have not tried this myself. Bonus tip - when you deploy Lync 2013 virtually, the plugins automatically integrate with the locally installed copy of
Outlook!

Lync 2013 Clients prompting repeatedly for credentials for calendar data from outlook

Our Exchange server had crashed recently (nothing major) and a reboot of the CAS server resolved the issues. However since then all our domain computers with Lync 2013 clients are prompting for credentials for calendar data from outlook. We would but in
our domain credentials but it still asks. It would sometime ask once a day or sometimes repeatedly throughout the day.
I have look on the forums and tried fixes that included: editing IIS Autodiscover and ESW to use NTLM first , rebuilt lyncs cache in app data etc and none seems to resolve the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Note: Our Lync 2013 environment is internal only. Only users on domain computers can access the service. We do use a proxy server here for internet but I do not believe Lync is going through the proxy since its internal to our network only. This is NOT happing
to our users with the Lync 2010 client.

Please update your Lync client with the latest version.
You can check the following KB:

November 7, 2013 update for Lync 2013 fix the issue Proxy authentication dialog box appears when you sign in to Lync 2013.

Lync 2013 Client pops up automatically while typing in Word , Excel in Windows 7 after upgrade from Lync 2010 client

Hello All,
Facing very much weird issue for only 4 users in my organization. This 4 users are migrated to Lync 2013 pool from Lync 2010 pool with Lync 2010 client migrated to Lync 2013 client.
Now whenever this users are typing in (apps like word, excel) automatically pops up Lync 2013 client which is annoying.
All my users are Windows 7 with latest updates & updates Lync 2013 with latest updates installed.
Any help really appreciated.
Regards
Anand S
Thanks & Regards Anand Sunka MCSA+CCNA+MCTS

Hi
The solution is to do a ‘repair’ install of Office 2013. This will reregister the needed components and the popups will stop.
A repair install can be done from ‘Programs and Features’, highlight Office 2013 and click ‘Change’. When the install wizard appears, choose the ‘repair’ option.

Lync 2013 client ews has not fully initialized

Hello
I have Lync 2010 server and Lync 2013 client. whenever Lync 2013 client logs in from outside(external) I get a exchange authentication pop up. and when I checked the status of lync - it says ews is not fully initialized. lync 2013 client works fine
from inside. If I use lync 2010 client from outside than it works fine, no pop up and ews status is ok. so I know that my TMG rules are accurate but something wrong with lync 2013 client itself. I have upgraded the client to the latest update.
Also I have tried various combinateion of this below registry fix without any success.
also Microsoft remote connectivity analyzer test is clean. no errors.
http://uclobby.com/2014/01/03/lync-client-2013-ews-has-not-fully-initialized/
any thoughts?
thanks

Hi
Can you try clearing the user local cache SIP folder who logs in externally and see the results
User\App Data\Microsoft\Office 15\lync\SIP
Is your SIP domain different from your domain name
If it is so you can try by adding the SMTP Domain as trusted using the following cmdlet:
reg add HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync /v TrustModelData /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d <SMTP Domain> /f
If it is for multiple users you can also try the below article

Lync 2013 client not finding audio device

I've got a problem with the Lync 2013 client on Windows 7 x64 Ent that's giving me a real headache, please help!
It's the 32-bit version (15.0.4535.1002) downloaded with Office 365 Pro Plus and it's refusing to pick up my USB headset/microphone - a Plantronics Blackwire C320-M. The message I get in Lync Tools|Audio Device is "We didn't find an audio device,
which you need for calling"
First and foremost, the device is working with the Lync 2010 64-bit client without issue
(I've not yet de-installed it) and is showing as working correctly in my Device Manager.
I'm aware of a few similar threads here and elsewhere where this has been seen, so I've tried the following advice:
1. Tried a different Headset (Plantronics C310-M)
2. Installed all MS Office 2013 updates
3. Reset all Generic USB and USB Root Hubs listed in Device Manager USB Controllers
4. Disabled "Allow the computer to turn of this device to save power" for each of the above USB Controllers
5. Uninstalled and reinstalled USB controllers above
6. Removed old/stale USB drivers using 3rd party tool (USBDView)
7. Multiple restarts of my HP Compaq Pro 6300 Micro Tower PC!
None of the above has made any difference. Any helpful suggestions very gratefully received!
Thanks
Paul

Update:
Whilst browsing through the Windows App Event Log, I found these two entries:
Log Name: Application
Event ID: 1
Source: Lync
The description for Event ID 1 from source Lync cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
Log Name: Application
Event ID: 12
Source: Lync
The description for Event ID 12 from source Lync cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
Lync
I tried both a "Repair" and "Online Repair" in Control Panel | Programs and Features | Office 365 Pro Plus. The events still appear when starting Lync 2013.

Unable to search GAL on Lync 2013 Front End Pool through Lync 2013 client

I'm in the beginning of a 2010 to 2013 migration and I'm currently testing co-existence functionality between pools. I've noticed that users cannot search the GAL from their Lync client after being moved to the 2013 pool.
When trying to access the internal URL https://fepool13.domain.com/abs/handler the user is prompted to login and after three failed attempts, receives "401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. You do not have permission
to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied".
Searching withing a Lync 2010 or Lync 2013 client returns no results, but there are no errors as well as nothing in the event logs or tracing folder regarding not being able to search.
The 2010 pool has been in production for a few years now and when accessing its internal ABS URL https://fepool10.domain.com/abs/handler the user is granted access after a successful login.
In the IIS logs there are slightly more detailed 401 error codes, but I’m not sure what to make of them.
The rtcab database appears to have user information and all three front end servers appear to be syncing with active directory. I say the rtcab database appears to have user info because the AbUserEntry table is filled with User ID'd, GUID's and a
bunch of other stuff.
The authentication on 2013 front end servers “internal lync website/abs/handler” is set to 1. Negotiate, 2. Ntlm - which is the same as the 2010 front end servers.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Which step did you do among migration from Lync Server 2010 to Lync Server 2013?
Did you already move CMS from Lync Server 2010 to Lync Server 2013?
Please create a new Lync account on Lync Server 2013 pool and test the issue again.
Please check if User Replication has completed with the help of the link below:

Lync 2013 client - part of Office 2013 Pro Plus - unable to edit or remove picture, option is grayed out.

Hi Team,
Lync 2013 client - part of Office 2013 Pro Plus - unable to edit or remove picture, option is grayed out.
Using Exchange 2010 Server and Lync 2010 Server at the back. To the best of my knowledge, this option is only available when using Exchange 2013 rather than Ex 2010.
Can somebody confirm this as I am not 100% sure about it.
Appreciate your help. Thanks

Hi,
The photo precedence in Lync 2013 is high-resolution photo from Exchange 2013 -> Photo from web address -> Active Directory photo. The "Edit or Remove Picture" button is available if you integrate Lync Server 2013 with Exchange 2013.
Since you are Lync server 2010 and Exchange 2010, you can choose the following two options:
The thumbnailPhoto attribute on the user's object in Active Directory Domain Services
A URL configured by the user

Lync 2013 client is deployed but user accounts are not migrated from OCS to Lync 2013 Server - how to open Lync meetings automatically in the Lync Web Plug-in

We have in our enterprise the following scenario:
1 - Lync 2013 client is installed
2 - User accounts are not migrated to Lync 2013 Server, users are using Office Communicator as their main tool
3 - Users receive Lync 2013 meeting requests but when try to access them, Lync 2013 client launches and shows error. Users will need to open the browser and paste the URL to the address bar but this still open
4 - We cannot use the workaround of adding "?SL=1" to the Lync 2013 meeting URL as the user base is large and manual workaround is not accepted
5 - Question: is there any automated way, via egistry key or GPO setting, so that users temporarily (until their accounts are migrated to Lync 2013 server) can bypass Lync 2013 client completely and automatically open all Lync 2013 meetings
on the browser, using Lync Web Plug-in?

Thanks for the response,
First, I should have mentioned clearly that users have Office Communicator 2007 client and Lync 2013 client installed in their machines. Their accounts are not migrated yet to Lync 2013 server.
Second, we are using IE9 and IE10. The issue is that users CAN join Lync 2013 meetings with their browsers but have to paste the URL manually to browser and add "?SL=1" otherwise, if they just click at the "Join Online Meeting" or "Join
Lync Meeting" URL it launches Lync 2013 client which shows error because is not configured yet, as they are using OCS client and migrating slowly to Lync 2013 server.
Is there a Group Policy setting or a registry key from Microsoft that can be turned on to these users machines and make will all Lync meeting requests to be opened in IE browser instead of Lync 2013 client. We need a way to ignore
Lync 2013 client until user accounts are migrated to Lync 2013 Server. Manually typing URLs is not an option in a big organization, can't explain thousands of users of different levels what to do.
We are regretting the decision not to separate Lync 2013 from Office 2013 package we deployed recently. If Lync 2013 is uninstalled then all Lync meeting requests are opened in browser without an issue.

Lync 2013 Client Not Display Numbers in Contact Card

Hi
I have a problem where Lync 2013 client connecting to Lync 2010 backend appears not download the contact list completely. Lync 2010 clients are all operating normally. On Lync 2010 client, you can view all contact details including Enterprise Voice
numbers and cell numbers for all users. However on Lync 2013 clients, Lync contact details for some users do not populate completely. In most cases, Enterprise numbers/Work Numbers/Mobile Numbers are missing. If the contact is pinned then the details
are retrieved.
In cases where Work/Voice/Cell numbers are not displayed, affected users is limited to making lync to lync calls only. The user can still dial the number and get through without any issues.
I have deleted and contacts cache on Lync 2013 but this has not helped.
Regards

Hi,
How about check the contact of “Outlook Test” user from the Lync 2010 client?
According to the second screenshot, since it’s an external account, the information will be limited.

Lync 2013 client doesn't read proxy.pac file Lync exclusions

Hi all,
I have a very annoying issue where by the Lync 2013 client ignores the proxy.pac file exclusions set below:
(host == "lync.test.domain") || (host == "lyncdiscoverinternal.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwacdca.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwacdcb.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwebintdca.test.domain") ||
(host == "lyncwebintdcb.test.domain")
IE is set to use automatic configuration script of
http://proxy.test.domain:8083/proxy.pac This file can be reached through and IE browser, downloaded and it's syntax read.
If I set my proxy server and exclusions manually within IE9 then they are adhered to. That is Lync 2013 is able to read.
My thinking: that some application may be iterferring with Lync 2013 getting to
http://proxy.test.domain:8083/proxy.pac or reading in the exclusions set within the file.
If I enter https://lync.test.domain into the browser URL search field I can see that it is being sent straight out to the proxy as opposed to bypassing it.
Does anyone have an example of their proxy.pac exclusion set for Lync 2013 just in case my syntax is not looking the best.
Cheers

Update to this issue - solution was to move the proxy exclusions to the top of the proxy.pac
Outcome resulted in Windows WinHTTP processing the the Lync proxy exclusions prior to the Lync.exe firing during logon. I don't believe you would see this in a typical infrastructure. Since initially looking into this issue I have been
able to show through packet traces, large periods of latency in delivery of desktop profile items due to backend profile storage issues.
In eddition this moving the exclusions to the top of the pac file I made use of substrings. I don't believe the use of substrings is any better or worst, but just easier for others to understand what the exclusion allows specifically.
Example of pac exclusion now:
if (url.substring(0,39) == "http://lyncdiscoverinternal.testdomain.") { return "DIRECT"; } //matches 31 characters including last . or period
I entered similar entries for all required exclusions. The result was Lync signing in within 6 seconds as opposed to the 40 second (through the user of legacy SRV records).

Schedule a meeting via Lync 2013 client

Hi All,
quick run down of my set up,
Exchange 2013 SP1 (no UM) and new installation of Lync 2013 FE with Feb 2015 cumulative updates (no Ent voice )
haven't integrated Exchange with Lync.
my problem is when i try to schedule a meeting with a colleague via Lync 2013 client it says "no free/busy information could be retrieved and if i let it stay open for 5 min it will come up or unless I unselect and reselect the user the information
comes up.
any idea what's causing thus and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance

Not sure of a fix, but Michael LaMontange posted a workaround for it:

"Collect Logs Button" available in Lync 2013 client?

In the Lync 2010 client I was able to enable a "Collect Logs" button for gathering logs pertaining to voice quality.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2010/12/10/collectlogs.aspx
I've looked everywhere and can't find any references for this option in the Lync 2013 client. Can anyone confirm if this has been removed from the 2013 client? Or are there different settings to turn it on for 2013 clients?

It is not listed in the Lync Server 2013 Client Policies, so I am afraid this feature is not there.

Outlook contact not added Email do not show all information i Lync 2013 Client

I have seen if no Email address is added into contact personen I only get emty Card of user i Lync 2013.
When I add Email adr. into contact person and wait a littel then user get all information right i Lync 2013 user Card.
IS this right or should it also showing user and all information from Outlook contact Card into lync 2013 client Card?

Lync aggregates contact data from Microsoft Exchange GAL, Outlook and Microsoft Lync Server.
So you can see information from outlook in Lync user card.

Can't open email items from search after installing Lync 2013 client

Hello,
We're deploying Lync 2013 in our environment.
At the moment we're using Office 2010 on the clients.
For testing the deployment I've installed the Lync 2013 client.
After installing, when I perform a search on my pc and outlook items are found, they suddenly appear with an Outlook 2013 icon.
When doubleclicking, nothing happens, neither when I rightclick.
I've checked the "associate a file type or protocol with a prgram", and "set your default programs" in the control panel.
In neither of them I can find the Outlook 2013 icon, and for email, every file type is configured to open with Outlook 2010.
Does anyone know what might be the problem. We have this problem with every user for which we install the Lync 2013 client.

You can do the following to restore functionality:
If you have office 2010 use the keys below, the Lync install will change them to Office15:
