Cannot open in Excel 2010 in Browser (32bit IE9) Windows 7

I have a user that has the following set-up:
Windows 7 (64-bit)
IE9 (64 bit)
Office 2010
When she tries to open Excel in the browser she gets this error:
"sharepoint 2010 to open this workbook, your computer must have a version of Microsoft Excel installed and your web browser must support opening files directly from excel in the browser."
According to our help desk, because of the version of Windows the user has, 32-bit IE cannot be installed ... it automatically installs 64 bit. I have already reviewed the other issues with the same question but since the system will not allow the 32 bit
IE to be installed, that doesn't help in this instance. Thanks!

Hi All,
bit or the 64 bit on an x64 Windows OS. The 32-bit version of Office 2010 is the recommended option for most people, because it prevents potential compatibility issues with other 32-bit applications, specifically third-party add-ins that are available only
for 32-bit operating systems.
Office 2010 provides support for the 32-bit version of Office 2010 programs running on 64-bit operating systems by using WOW64, a compatibility environment provided by the operating system that allows a 32-bit application to run on a Windows 64-bit operating
system. Using the 32-bit version of Office 2010 allows people to continue to use existing third-party add-ins for Office that are 32-bit.
What is in the 32-bit version of Office but is not included in the 64-bit version of Office?
ActiveX controls library, ComCtl
This library contains ActiveX controls that are used to build solutions. It is most commonly used in the following Microsoft Office programs: Access, Excel, and Word.
SharePoint List control
The list view in SharePoint Technology is not available to people using the 64-bit version of Office.
You should install the 64-bit edition of Office 2010 if you have spreadsheets or Visio diagrams larger than 2GB

  • Cannot open an Excel 2010 workbook by using Internet Explorer 8.0 in sharepoint 2010

    When am trying to open a Microsoft Office Excel 2010  workbook from a Web site by browsing to the location with Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0, you cannot open the file. Instead, you receive the following messages:
    Some files can harm your computer. If the file information below looks suspicious, or you do not fully trust the source, do not open this file.
    Would you like to open the file or save it to your computer?
    If you click Open, you receive the following error message:
    Could not open 'http[s]://<var>Server_name</var>/<var>File_path</var>/<var>File_name</var>.xls'.
    After you click OK, you receive the following error message:
    Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'http[s]://<var>Server_name</var>/<var>File_path</var>/<var>File_name</var>.xls' There are several possible reasons:
    The file name or path name does not exist.
    The file you're trying to open is being used by another program. Close the document in the other program, and try again.
    The name of the workbook you're trying to save is the same as the name of another document that is read-only. Try saving the workbook with a different name.

  • Numbers cannot open an excel file (in my ipad).

    Numbers cannot open an excel file (in my ipad) sent from an email. I get this message: "the document can't be opened because it contains cells outside the boundaries of Numbers"...what this means?

    If you have Numbers for the iPad, that will be one of the options to open in (besides, or from, Quick Look) if you don't have one of the PDF  / printing apps. Numbers handles Excel files quite nicely on the iPad, in my experience--one more reason to have it.
    One reason I like the Save2PDF app is that it gives me lots of options on the iPad for how I want to save or process email attachments.

    ?? I cannot open PDF files ?? Adobe Reader 8, Windows Vista, Firefox Browser ?? help ??

    Why the question marks? Can you open PDF files or not? You don't need Firefox to open PDF files.

    Hi Eva,
    Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when trying Excel.

  • Windows 7 ffox 1.6.16 installed office 2010 intimated cannot open link outlook firefox default browser, firefox will not initiate at all. Have to restart to get any response from firefox which then works but it crashes again. No error message

    Windows 7, firefox 1.6.16 just installed office 2010, sometimes cannot open a link in outlook and firefox is my default browser, and firefox will not initiate at all. Have to restart computer to get any response which then works but after a while it crashes again. Was this due to an update or office 2010 has a hidden setting somewhere? Why would firefox crash without any message? Intimated consuming

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

    Is it requried to restart the server???

    Hi,
    Please check your event log and see if there is relevant error message.
    If you have observed event id 5021 like this "The identity of application pool 625dfcc8e4054c7d8da14feaca288250 is invalid. The user name or password that is specified
    for the identity may be incorrect, or the user may not have batch logon rights".
    Then the error indicates the issue is caused by either of these:
    1. The account doesn’t have user rights to to “log on as a batch job” and “log on as a service” in group policy.
    2. The account permission is out of sync between SharePoint database and AD.
    If not, let me know the event id.

  • How to Open Two Excel Files in Multiple Monitors in Windows 7

    How to open two excel files in two excel windows using multiple monitors in Windows 7.
    Currently it opens multiple files on top of each other on the same one monitor.
    I found this article in a blog it says
    "The snap feature that you are looking for will not work unless you open two instances of Excel. This is because Excel Unlike Word is not a True SDI Application. Microsoft is aware of the Issue however there is no resolution to the problem but the workaround"

    If you are working almost the entire day in front of your computer at your office with lots of Excel Sheets and Word, then probably you might be working with a
    dual monitor or may be even more than that. Studies have shown that having an additional monitor increases the productivity by 20 to 30 percent (Source: NY Times)
    But some applications like MS Office Excel, even though you open multiple files, they are all from the same instance of the application. So if you want to compare two
    Excel
    files, then you may not be able to have it in two
    separate monitors as the files are loaded using the same instance of Excel. If you move one
    Excel
    file to the other window, the other Excel files are also moved to the other window.
    So how to have two separate Excel files or other application side by side in dual monitors?
    Option A:
    In Excel 2003, go to Tools -> Options ->
    General tab.
    Make sure the option, ‘Ignore other applications’ is checked. Now all the Excel files will be opened as separate instance and you can move the Excel files individually across the monitors.
    In Excel 2007, Click the Office button ->
    Excel Options -> Advanced.
    Under General, check ‘Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange’.
    or
    As this method forces each Excel file as a separate instance, the memory consumption will be more. If you don’t want too many memory consumption then you can open only two instances (see
    Option B) and manage wisely to view in both the monitors.
    Note: If you are having issues like Excel opens without displaying a workbook, then you may have to
    uncheck this option. (See Microsoft Help for more details on this). You can use option B in this case. I have this option checked and I have not faced any issue yet.
    Option B:
    They key here is, the application has to be loaded as separate instances. Lets say you have opened an Excel file in
    Monitor 1 and you want to open the next excel file in Monitor 2. You can usually open another instance of Excel by browsing through the
    Start Menu -> Programs -> Microsoft Office ->
    Excel. Make sure this newly opened Excel file is the last Excel file you had viewed and then double click on the Excel file that you wanted to open. This will force the Excel to
    open
    in the second instance of Excel. Now you can move these
    two excel files separately across windows or monitors.
    This may be little cumbersome way to open new instances of Excel every time. The easy solution would be to keep these links in the
    quick links near the Start button. So, every time you want to open a new instance of the application, you can just use those quick links.
    hope work thanks

  • DDE link between MT4 & Excel 2010 no longer works on Windows 8.1 64bit

    I have a DDE link between EXCEL 2010 & Metatrader (MT4)  that has worked flawlessly up until yesterday. Now the spreadsheet just hangs when
    i attempt to update.
    I had not changed anything on my machine prior to the problem, but have since repaired then reinstalled Office and reinstalled MT4 but the problem persists.
    The link still works fine on my Windows 7 64bit PC with the same version of Excel and MT4, so the problem is not at the server end. I have even taken the EXCEL file from the WIN8 machine and it works fine on the Win7 machine
    MT4 is installed in C:/ as the link did not work previously when installed in program files
    Help!

    P.S.  If Excel file was created on an older version of Excel, it should be converted to 2010 format, and the inputs are a little different.
    Example:
    Instead of  =MT4|ASK!EURUSD
    it's now       ='MT4'|ASK!EURUSD

    Hi Darrkon,
    I suggest checking the status of the HealthMailbox on each of servers.
    Also try to re-create the mailbox. You can safely delete and recreate health mailboxes.
    Be aware that any local Managed Availability probes that are using the these mailboxes will fail until the Microsoft Exchange Health Manager is restarted.  Once that service is restarted, it will recreate any mailboxes that it needs.

    Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.
