Can't Edit Data in Access 2013 Web App

I have an Office 365 P1 account that I have been using to create apps in Access 2010. I tried Access 2013. But when I launch an app, it loads in my Office 365, but editing data is not enabled (the Add and Edit buttons are displayed, but not enabled).
I have tried creating a new custom web app with one simple table and a view, as well as creating one using a Microsoft pre-built template, and simply creating the app and launching it. In both cases, the app displays, but I cannot add or edit data.
Is there something with my Office 365 account that is limiting my ability to work with Access 2013 web apps?
Thank you!

Hi KrisMarshall7,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
What the file format is your Access 2007 file? MDB or ACCDB?
Where do you want to add the columns? Table, form or query?
As far as I know,
the limitation of columns in a table is 250. Thus, I suppose that the database had some hidden columns. Please try to check it. Steps:
Right-click any field title, then select Unhide Fields. A dialog box will appear. Click the check boxes of any fields you would like to be visible again, then click Close.
Hope it's helpful.

Does Access 2013 Web App support multi-value lookup fields?

I hope someone can please help me with this as I've not been able to find the answer by searching this site, nor elsewhere on the web. I have Access 2013 open connected to my web app on Sharepoint Skydrive with a table open in 'edit table' mode. When I add
a new lookup field I don't see any option to make it a multi-value lookup field. Is there no support for that in web apps or am I doing something wrong?
Cheers, Henk.
Cheers, Henk.

This is what I use in the Parent RowSource:
This in the parent child relationship
In the row source query from the child, I have a simular expression. By inverting the boolean 'childToggler' I can force the child-form to requery. Because the boolean is in the session table record (which is part of the child form recordsource query as
well), the boolean will be inverted in both and won't disrupt the relationship.
Besides the toggler this relationship only contains an ID with preceding zero's, but the expression can contain pretty much everything.

MS Access 2013 Web App script error when viewing datasheet view

Hi--in MS Access 2013 on my PC (Win 7 64), whenever I hit VIEW+DATASHEET, I get a script error. I have tried multiple solutions, including one posted here to delete all of the files in the DatabaseCache folder. Here's a screenshot of the error I get:
This forum won't let me attach a screenshot, so here's what the error says:
=============================================
An error has occured in the script on this page
Line: 5
Char; 1
Error: Syntax Error
Code: 0
URL: https://rainbowcityband-fc0dbfcf70da72.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/Menu.htc
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?
=============================================
The data shows fine once in my browser, but has never appeared for any table on my PC.
Thanks!

Hi Ginger Rowe,
Is the issue occured on the specific view?
Based on my understanding, the issue seems relative to script. Please check whether there are 'OnLoad' and 'On Current' action for the view and ensure it is correct.
We can check it from Access like figure below:

Access 2013 Web reporting seems to be missing

I have a simple request from a user to print out a list of the database in a nicely formatted form. Should take 10 minutes (or so I thought). The version is Access 2013 web.
It appears that this simple request is not easily done. There appears not to be a reporting function in the Web version of Access. I spent a long time looking for it and decided that it just isn't there.
For my second choice I decided to deploy the desktop version and create the reports there, but can't get a connection to the SQL Server where the Access Web App stores my data in SharePoint.
I found a web link showing me how to hook up Excel to the SQL server supporting the web app database. I have gone to the Web Access FILE\INFO screen and selected the Manage Connections section. Followed the instructions
for enabling a read only connection and then copied and pasted the server, database name, username and password into Excel using the "From other sources" button, then selecting the "From Data Connection Wizard", Selected other/advanced
and then SQL Server Native Client 11.0. It does not find the server when I test the connection. I constantly get a time out.
I am using a 365 SharePoint server to host my access web site. I called 365 Tech support and spent hours trying to work this out with people that didn't know anything about Access. The SharePoint people didn't understand the problem of not
being able to connect and was eventually told that it wasn't a feature they offered.
As an aside, with 18 years experience in developing Access applications, I am looking at other products to replace Access. I didn't jump into Access 2010 web because of the way SharePoint handled the database, but this is worse. Hate to walk away
from the experience I have, but seems I have been left little choice.

See if this blog post that our support team created helps you with the connection information. This can create the desktop Access application linked up to the Access 2013 web app tables you have.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_access_support_team_blog/archive/2014/03/24/how-to-make-external-connections-to-an-access-web-app-new.aspx
Also, you might just try clicking the Create Reports button in the Access web app client interface and Access will create the reporting database for you with links to the web app tables. On the File menu (when using the Access web app in client) make sure
to click the option to Allow Any Location under the Manage button. After that, just click the Create Reports button on the File menu (right above the Manage button) and wait a few seconds. Access will create a new desktop database linked up to all of the Access
web app tables. You can then create as many reports or other desktop objects as you like.
Hope that helps,

How can I use more than one Data Provider in my web Apps

I am trying to use two different data provider in my web apps to run two different queries from the same table ,the data provider A is working correctly but when I attempt to run data provider B ,It display an error page ,here is the error message : Exception Details :javax.servlet.ServletEx ception

Hi,
You can use more than one data provider in your application. However if you have defined a dataprovider for a particular table already, and wish to bind a component, select the component and use its context menu to Bind to Data...

Lync 2013 Web App Sharing not working.

We are having a problem with Lync Web App 2013. Our external customers can open the meeting link and join the meeting without a problem. Once they are in the meeting an internal user begins the presentation by sharing his screen. The Lync
Web App just says "Loading..." for the external customer. The internal presenter sees this external customer continually change from "in collaboration session" to "not in collaboration session". The external customer
is never actually shown the screen share.
Other notes:
-->We tried this from an external wireless hotspot and it worked fine, thus, it seems something in this customer's company firewall that is blocking it.
-->We also tried sharing a powerpoint (we have a functional office web apps server), which produced the same results.
-->When we used the Lync 2010 Web App (before we upgraded to 2013), everything seemed to work fine, thus I am concluding that the 2013 Lync Web App (since it has more capabilities) is somehow trying to use more ports or something.
-->Internally, the Lync Web app works fine.
So, I assume something in the customer's company's firewall is blocking some access to Lync 2013 Web App. My question is: what needs to be enabled both on-premise and at the customer's side to access Lync 2013 Web App screen sharing and if the
company (for security reasons) doesn't want to open extra ports, is there some work around to force Lync Web App to use port 443 for screen sharing.
Thanks,
Adam

The ports 1024-65535 * are used for application sharing.
You can configure the port ranges for Lync clients.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj204760.aspx
You can’t use 443 as port 443 is used for HTTPs.

Lync 2013 web app login prompt

Hi.
I have some trouble with Lync 2013 web app. When the page is loaded, it always prompt for credentials.
I understand, that from LAN it try to use user credentials, but from the external it is problematic.
We use TMG as reverse proxy. Is there any way, how to remove prompt for external sites ?
Thanks

The login dialog is by design, you can’t remove the prompt.
As most external users can access successfully, I think the problem is on the client side.
Please check the supported platforms for Lync Web App at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg425820.aspx
Please check if the issue always happens to the problem Lync account.
Check if the issue happens to multiple Lync account on the same computer.
Check if the issue happens to the same Lync account on another computer.

How to Disable Lync 2013 Web app link in Lync meeting

I want disable Lync 2013 Web App , because it is confuse WinXP user(no sound suuport) , I reference the topic(Disable Lync Web App link) but not work in 2013 version. How can I disable that?

I assume you're referring to this link:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/33fbfa3f-e7dd-43a7-85f4-43c280e17d4f/disable-lync-web-app-link?forum=ocsconferencing
That was an unsupported but clever hack that we developed by the user asking the question. There is not supported method for doing this in Lync 2013.
If it's an audio only meeting, I'd suggest removing the URL completely from each individual the meeting invite before sending it out. If it's not, then the WinXP user would either need Lync, which they would then automatically join with anyway, or
they wouldn't in which case sending them the meeting invite wouldn't help.

How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

How can I edit my apple ID in the app store the enable update some applications because it not my own that is showing

It sounds like some apps were purchased using another Apple ID.
ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them. Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password. Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

How to save edited data Workbook in Excel Web Access web part?

Can not edit data labels in old graph chart objects using Word 2010

In Word 2010, Insert object "Microsoft Graph Chart", go to Chart Options and check an item in Data labels, such as "Series Name", "Category Name" or "Value". Click OK, then double-click on a data label to edit its
settings, or right-click on a data label and select "Format Data Labels..."
This makes Word to crash. The only way I can get out of it is by using the Task Manager to kill Word.
This happens in Windows 7 and Windows 8. This does NOT not happen in Word 2007 nor Word 2013, so it seems specific to Word 2010. All our clients have the same problem, this does not seem related to a specific workstation configuration.
The Microsoft Graph Chart are the old charts used within .doc files. I have an application still generating those types of files and need to edit data label settings manually before processing the files with my application.
Also note that anytime you edit a .doc file in Word 2010 and you see "Compatibility Mode" in the title bar, the Insert / Chart option from the ribbon inserts an old type chart (same as if you use Insert / Object / Microsoft Graph Chart), not the
new Word 2010 charts. You then have the same problem editing the data labels.
The underlying Activex seems to be the Chart.Exe file, the one I have installed is 14.0.7012.1000. You can see the version by double-clicking the chart and then look in the Help / About menu.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

As this is a configuration issue and not a programming issue I' moving your question to a more appropriate forum where you're more likely to find assistance.

Working offline with data from Access 2010 web database

Hello all,
I have an Access 2010 web database that I have published to a SharePoint site. Users currently work with the data via one of several Access 2010 front end applications that simply have linked tables and client queires, forms and reports. On a couple
of occasions, we have had issues with our SharePoint site that have left users unable to access the data. A couple of times it was due to our site collection suddenly and inexplicably becoming read only and the last time (while I was on vacation, of course)
due to some license changes my folks were unable to access the site.
I'm getting ready to go on vacation again. What i would like to do is have a sort of emergency back up plan should things go awry again while I'm gone.
What I envision is a back up database that has actual data tables, rather than simply linked lists, that I can sync with my SharePoint lists on a regular basis. That way, should the SharePoint lists become inaccessible, users could continue to work with
the data offline and any changes can be synced once a connection is restored.
I have read through
this article, but in each scenario I was unable to actually open tables to work with the data once offline. Is this a situation where I should simply have folks work offline with a local copy containing all of the data and then republish? Or, is there
a way to simply sync? Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. I'm really hoping to leave my laptop at home on this next trip.
Thanks,
Greg

Issue while accessing deployed web-app on Weblogic 10.3.5

We have deployed a web app on Weblogic server 10.3.5 as a WAR file. The deployment looks fine and application is in "Active" state. However when we try to access the application it fails to detect the Struts tags and gives following error -
weblogic.servlet.jsp.CompilationException: Failed to compile JSP /view/login/login.jsp
login.jsp:4:1: Type mismatch: cannot convert from Tag to JspTag
*<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtm*
*l1-transitional.dtd">*
*^---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
*<title><s:property value="customerLoginContentVO.pageTitle" /> Dashboard</title>*
------^
I looks like it doesn't get the Struts libraries. We have included the Struts libraries in WEB-INF/lib of the web app and set prefer-web-inf-classes to true in weblogic.xml. Why is it that it is able to find the jars to deploy but not to access the application.
One alternate method suggested is to have package the war into a ear and provide the mapping for struts libraries as prefer-application-packages in weblogic-application.xml. But we think creating a ear just for library load in not a right approach & we are definitely missing something.
Any help on this issue will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jiten S

WLS 10.3.5 (and some versions before that too, one of the 10.3.x releases changed this) should also support prefer-application-packages. It doesn't appear as though the documentation has been updated to reflect that.
Needs updating:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13712/weblogic_xml.htm#i1075205
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12840_01/wls/docs103/programming/classloading.html#wp1098468
I'll file a documentation bug.
In the meantime, you can see that it is there in the XSD:
http://xmlns.oracle.com/weblogic/weblogic-web-app/1.2/weblogic-web-app.xsd
which is linked to from here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13706/overview.htm#g1088563

Rtf-Vulnerability in Office 2013 Web Apps Server

I was trying to install a hotfix for our Office Web Apps server because of the vulnerability listed here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2953095
The suggested solution is installing a hotfix (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2953095). But when trying to install it on our Office Web Apps server (Windows Server 2012), I just a message that it can't be installed on this operating
system or for this version of the application.
How do I install the hotfix or disable RTF content for the Word Web Apps server?

Hi Lakner,
According to your description, my understanding is that the hotfix cannot be installed in Office Web Apps Server 2013.
As the articles below said, “the affected versions include Word 2003, 2007, 2010, Office for Mac 2011, Office Web Apps 2010 and Office Web Apps Server 2013. However, Microsoft said the active attacks have only targeted those systems running
Word 2010.”
