Connect Outlook 2013 to Sharepoint 2010 External List fails

Clicking Connect to Outlook in a SharePoint 2010 external list (ECT) produces the following message:
"The Microsoft Common Language Runtime 3.5 is not installed on this computer."
The client is Office 2013 Pro Plus 32-bit on Windows 8.1 64-bit with a standard installation including BCS. .Net 3.5 has been installed from Turn Windows features on or off.
On Windows 7 and Outlook 2013, clicking Connect to Outlook results in the usual running of the .vsto, but nothing happens in Outlook (SharePoint External Lists does not appear). Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 works correctly. Connecting to a standard SharePoint
contact list from Outlook 2013/Windows 8.1 works as well. Offline Synchronization for External Lists is enabled for the farm and the site.

Hi Canadian,
To synchronize external data with Office products, you must have Windows 7 or later and the following free software products: SQL Server Compact 4.0, .NET Framework 4, and WCF Data Services 5.0 for OData V3 on each client computer (If necessary, you are
automatically prompted to download the software).
Please also make sure that you select Contact, Task, Appointment or Post as the Office Item Type for the external content type and Offline Sync for external list is set to Yes when you creating the external content type.

Sharepoint 2010 foundation list open(export) to Access button disable?

1. Why In sharepoint 2010 foundation list "Open with Access" button is disabled?
2. Some PCs don't even able to see the "Open with Access" button in datasheet view?

It is a external list
Please firstly make sure you have installed Assess 2010 properly.
And please check if the issue occured in all lists or just one list.
Click File menu after you open the Access, you will see Open. There will open a windows, in the file type dropdownlist(the default value is "All Files(*.*)"), you can select "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation"
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/201186.aspx
. Check if the add-on has been enabled by clicking
Internet Options of IE, then selecting Programs > Manage add-ons. Here’s the screenshot for your reference.

The problem stems from having done a custom installation of Office Professional Plus 2010 and only installing Access.
If you are doing a custom installation, you must expand Office Tools and Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support. Under Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support, there is another Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support. Set this to Run from My Computer,
and the Open with Access button will work.

Outlook clients cannot connect Exchange 2013 cutover from 2010

Hello,
My company has been running an Exchange 2013/2010 coexistence. Currently, Exch 2013 (2mbx and 1 CAS) utilizes "mail2.domain.com" for the name space. Exch 2010 (1MBX 1 CAS) uses "mail.domain.com"
We recently attempted to cutover external and internal DNS to point "mail.domain.com" and "autodiscover.domain.com" to the Exch 2013 server.
We changed all virtual directories on 2013 to use "https://mail.domain.com/owa" (ECP, EWS, etc. were changed too) for the internal and external URL. The Exch 2010 virtual directories internal URL are set to "https://internalFQDN.domain.com/owa"
the external URLs are $null
Both CAS servers were setup to use Outlook Anywhere since this is how 2013 proxies to 2010. The internal URLs for both were set to "mail.domain.com" IIS authentication Methods (Basic, NTLM). ClientAuthenicsationMethod: NTLM.
For both servers the autodiscoverserviceinternaluri was set to: https://autodiscover.domain.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
The 2013 server has two SSL certificates installed. One is a wildcard cert for "*.domain.com" and the other includes our SANs (mail.domain.com, mail2.domain.com, webmail.domain.com, autodiscover.domain.com) it also includes the FQDN for the 2010
and 2013 CAS servers.
I'm speaking in the past tense because we had to roll back. The problem was no Outlook user could connect. This goes for mailboxes hosted on the Exchange 2013 and 2010 servers. The error was: "Cannot
open your default e-mail folder" to "The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete".
Everything else worked fine during the cutover. OWA 2013 login page proxied 2010 logins properly, Outlook 2011 could connect with EWS fine, Active-Sync worked without issues too.
It was only the Outlook 2010 and 2013 clients that could not connect.
We rolled back and everything is working as it was before with the separate namespace. That leads me to think it's something with Outlook Anywhere (RPC/HTTPS)
but the settings seem correct unless I'm missing something. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Hard to say. I've had to change the router to point to the old server as mail wasnt getting in. But OWA did seem ok, although I couldn't send messages... I could only see the inbox and contacts etc.

Connecting Outlook 2013 for a local user

We’re having trouble connecting a users connecting a domain user’s Outlook 2013 to our Exchange 2013 server. The user has a domain user account, and an Exchange mailbox.
However;
The user in question uses a PC that is physically connected to the network, but isn’t a domain-joined machine. The user is using a locally-provisioned account on the PC.
The machine can query internal DNS servers, and has network connectivity through to the Exchange server.
The user can successfully log in to OWA, where everything functions as normal. The user wishes to use Outlook 2013 for archiving of PST files.
We are having issues creating a mail profile for the user, whether manually configuring or utilising autodiscover.
With autodiscover, the user enters her name, email address and password in the initial wizard in Outlook 2013. 2 of the 3 steps succeed, before ‘The action cannot be completed. The name cannot be matched to a name in the address list’ error window is displayed.
Is this because Exchange is having issues with the account being used to create the profile (the local user account on the PC)?
Now what’s really odd, is that when using Outlook 2013 away from the network (at home), with any PC, the autodiscover method succeeds. What is causing it to fail internally?
So, with the autodiscover method out of the window, we turned to manually configuring the profile.
The local name of the Exchange server is entered for the server name, with the user’s email address for the username.
In ‘More Settings’, the connection tab is configured to ‘Connect to Microsoft Exchange using HTTP’.
The URL used to connect the proxy server for Exchange, is the external name used for OWA. This is the same address used when the user is using OWA internally/externally, which works without issue.
Options ‘Connect using SSL only’, along with ‘Only connect to proxy servers that have this principal name in their certificate’ are selected with
msstd:<external FQDN name> being entered.
Basic Authentication is selected for the proxy authentication settings section.
The user is then prompted for credentials. The following formats have been attempted;
Domain.local\username
Email Address
[email protected]
The correct password is used, but nothing is accepted.
How can we get Outlook 2013 configured for this non-domain joined PC?
Many thanks.

The first problem is, if this Exchange 2013 then the server name in Outlook isn't really a server name, it is in actuality the ExchangeGUID of the mailbox.
Since you are trying to access the mailbox from a machine that is not on the domain you will need to make sure the externalURLs resolve properly internally. Meaning either the user can access them by going out to the internet and getting routed back
in (not ideal) or you configure them to resolve to the internal IPs on your internal DNS servers.
Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread
Thank you for your reply.
As I mentioned, this machine can query internal DNS servers without issue. Autodiscover is working in a fashion, as the name of the mail server is hashed.
In an update to the post, I have exported a working profile from the registry of the machine for a domain user, and have imported for a local user. This actually works, but I'd still like to know the reason for not being able to configure it in the first
instance.

Cannot Connect Outlook 2013 to Exchange 2013

I have an exchange 2013 server running on a Windows Server 2012 R2 box that is also a domain controller and performs DNS. I have installed an SSL certificate for mail.domainname.com installed and listed as valid in ECP. When I try to connect
a local computer running Outlook 2013 on Windows 7 I get asked for login and password which it won't accept. I have tried my user and my administrator credentials, either work.
It then says that "The connection to Microsoft Exchange is unavailable. Outlook must be online or connected to complete this action."
I can connect via OWA and don't get any certificate errors. My internal host name and external host name are both mail.domainname.com according to the Get-OutlookAnywhere | ft internalhostname,externalhostname.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I probably should have stated from the beginning that I am not an IT professional. I am an architect. Not a network architect, but an "I design buildings" architect. I am simply the most knowlegable member of the firm when it comes to IT.
I have been administering our SBS server for the last 14 years. We just purchased a new server to replace our tired old beast and I have been working to get it read to roll out to the office. I have everything set except Outlook. We are a
very small firm, only three people, so if manual configurations are needed I can do that.
I don't understand what I am reading in the Configure Outlook Anywhere article. It looks like it is about using Outlook from a remote location without a VPN. I am trying to get configured to use Outlook internally. Not sure if they both
work the same way.
Thank you,
Robert

Office 2013 vs SharePoint 2010 - Unable to check out documents to SharePoint drafts folder

My company is foisting Office 2013 on us without upgrading SharePoint 2010 Enterprise. One of the issues I have discovered since receiving Office 2013 is that SharePoint no longer provides the option to save checked out documents to my local drafts folder.
This is despite having Office set to save checked-out files to the server drafts location and the Office Document Cache Handler enabled in IE9. Is there a registry setting or something I can change that will re-enable this feature?

Hi Nellie,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to re-enable the add-on Office Document Cache Handler in IE9.
We can re-enable the add-on in IE9 using Group Policy:
Launch the Group Policy Editor.
Go to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Security Features > Add-on Management >
Add-on List.
Set this policy to 'Enabled'.
In the Add-on List, add the CLSID of BHO (Browser Helper Object) (i.e.) {B4F3A835-0E21-4959-BA22-42B3008E02FF} as the ‘Value Name’ and 1 as the 'Value'.
Log out of the machine and log back in again for the setting to take effect.

Issue with Copy of events from Outlook Calendar to SharePoint 2010 calendar(mapped in outlook)

There is a issue while copying events in Outlook mapped SharePoint 2010 Calendar.
This issue only seems to happen when user copies an event from his Outlook calendar to the SharePoint 2010 calendar.
He is able to create a new event in the SharePoint calendar from Outlook.
He tried below steps, but still no success
1.
Open your Outlook calendar.
2. Open the event you want to copy.
3. From the File menu, select Info.
4. Click the Move to Folder button.
5. In the Copy Items To dialog box, scroll down to the SharePoint Lists item and select the SharePoint calendar to which you want to copy the event.
6. Click the OK button.
7. Click the Yes button when prompted to continue.
Please let me know if there is any possible solution for it.

Hi,
I have done a test as your steps. I am able to copy an event from my Outlook calendar to the SharePoint 2010 calendar.
1. I suggest you test in another compute, perhaps your Outlook results to that issue.
2. Please create a new site collection, then test again, compare the result.
3. Maybe it will take some time before the copied event displays in the SharePoint 2010 calendar. So, wait a minute, compare the result.

Can't Publish Slides from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 Slide Library

Hello all,
When I attempt to publish PowerPoint 2013 slides to a SharePoint 2010 Slide Library it informs me that it failed. I am able to publish PowerPoint 2010 slides without issue. All of my permissions are correct. Is it possible to publish PowerPoint 2013 slides
to SharePoint 2010?
The weird thing is that while I can't publish, I can compile a new slide deck in PowerPoint 2013 using the "Copy slide to presentation" button in the slide library of my SharePoint 2010 site.
Thanks!
Kelly
Personal Blog: http://thebitsthatbyte.com

When I get this error it is because SharePoint is not passing the credentials to the network share where the slide library is located. So when PowerPoint
tries to upload slides to SharePoint it is giving an error of unauthorized (because your credentials are not being passed correctly). Every part of SharePoint is essentially a network shared drive just like you have an internal network to share files between
employees. Assuming you are having the same problem for the same reason, here's the work around:
Set up a mapped network drive that goes to where the slide library is located. It should be something like this: \\sp.sharepoint.com@SSL\site\Sales\Slide Library
When you connect to this drive it will prompt you for a log in (just like SharePoint would)
Once you log in your credentials will be cached (until you reboot your system or it times out)
You can then publish to your PowerPoint slides to the library either directly through PowerPoint or by going to the upload slides option on SharePoint
The problem is it only last until you reboot. When you reboot it clears out your credentials then you have to log in again. I’m hoping someone can figure out why SharePoint is
not passing the credentials properly so we can have true fix to this issue. Until then, this will get you by.

Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2010

we upgraded from Outlook 2010 to 2013 x64it and the exchange server is the same 2010
when trying to cleanup public folders the Clean Up tool is grayed our and it says "outlook 2013 this feature is not available because you are running in online mode and connected to microsoft exchange server 2007 or earlier" none of this is true.
It works fine when you are in your own inbox, only grays out in Public folders, this worked fine with Outlook 2010
David

Hi David,
Sorry for the late reply.
Since Outlook 2010 works well, just Outlook 2013 has this issue, I still believe this issue related to the Outlook 2013 Client side.
I suggest also create a thread on Outlook Forum so that we can get more professional suggestions.
For your convenience:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/home?forum=outlook
If this issue really related to the Exchange 2010 server side, I suggest re-setting the default public folder database for testing.
Please make a back up for the current setting in case of some crash. If it doesn't work, please back to the current setting.
Then please follow following article to change the default public folder database:
Change the Default Public Folder Database for a Mailbox Database

Fully automated Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2010 client setup

Hi,
I'm trying to create a situation where a user fires up Outlook 2013 for the first time and the Exchange account is configured for them without any intervention whatsoever.
I currently have it that when a user opens Outlook, they see the "Welcome to Outlook 2013" screen and they click next. They are asked if the want to setup Outlook to connect to an email account and click Next. On the next screen, there
primary SMTP address is automatically filled out, and then autodiscover takes over and configures the rest for them.
I have configured AutoDiscover correctly (including SCP), and configured a GPO with "Automatically configure profile based on Active Directory Primary SMTP address".
However, I still get that "Welcome to Outlook 2013" screen.
How do I get rid of that to make the whole process fully automated?
Many thanks,
-Mark

Hi Mark,
I have this issue before.
When we first add our accout to Outlook, we should better create a new profile manually.
I suggest removing our accout from Outlook via "Mail" and re-creating new profile.
Operation details as below:
1. Start-->Control Panel-->Mail-->E-mail Accounts...-->select your account and Remove it-->Close
2. Show Profiles...-->Add-->then configure your account again.
Hope it is helpful
Thanks

Help needed with buggy Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2010 trashing profiles

Hi All,
I have a customer who has eschewed MOLP and buys all their Office OEM from Dell. So as a result they are starting to have more and more office 2013 be deployed. They have a SBS 2011 server with Exchange 2010 and it is patched to the latest
rollups and service packs. (SP3, RU2) Their Outlook 2010 and earlier clients are just peachy on this. But the Outlook 2013 clients are having problems.
What is going on is that periodically I'll get a complaint from a user that their Outlook 2013 is randomly crashing. In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default
and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC. This seems to happen a few times a month with random users on the network.
I told the customer it was probably people not logging out of Outlook 2013 at night and their machines being power spiked but I think that's highly unlikely since it doesen't happen to the Outlook 2010 clients.
I don't know if any Microsoft developers read this but if you do, please take it back to your bug database. Any other suggestions would be appreciated (other than scotch Outlook 2013 - while I'd appreciate that, my customer wouldn't)

In all cases the fix is going into the Outlook Profiles, creating a new profile, then setting the new profile as the default and going back into Outlook 2013 and letting it rebuild the cached data on the PC.
The Outlook 2013 crash problem would be fix after you re-create a new profile and re-sync the data from Exchange, right?
When we meet the same problem in next time, I suggest we run the Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic tool to isolate known causes of crashes in Outlook. The Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic also creates a diagnostic report outlining the data it collected
and recommendations on possible steps you can take to reduce or eliminate Outlook stability issues.
Please click the following link to run the Outlook Product Stability Diagnostic tool in the Microsoft Fix it Center Pro portal:

Connect outlook emails to sharepoint site

HI, I need to figure out how to display my emails from outlook directly onto my sharepoint online site, can anyone help me with this please?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to display the Outlook email in SharePoint online site.
You can use the page view webpart to achieve it, you can refer to the folllowing steps.
Step 1: Add the “Page Viewer” web part on a page
Step 2: View Outlook Web App segments in the web part
Click open the tool pane in the new Page Viewer web part
Type an URL like the following
https://db3prd0206.outlook.com/owa/?exsvurl=1&cmd=contents
in the Link text box, where the highlighted part must be your own mailserver.
In SharePoint 2013, we can also use the site mailbox to achieve it.
http://camerondwyer.wordpress.com/2013/10/30/integrating-outlook-web-access-owa-and-sharepoint-2013/
As this is the forum for the SharePoint server, I recommend you can post your question to the forum for SharePoint Online:

More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SharePoint Online.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Cannot Publish Slides from PowerPoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010 Slide Library

I have the 64-bit version of Windows 8 Release v1.0, Internet Explorer version 10 (10.0.9200.17183), Office 2013 Professional 32-bit, and a SharePoint 2010 environment. I cannot publish slides to the SharePoint environment at all. When
I attempt to do so from PowerPoint 2013, I receive an error indicating all slides (X of X) failed to upload. When I attempt to use the option in the SharePoint 2010 Slide Library (Upload > Publish Slides) I receive the error of "This feature
requires Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007. Either the application is not installed, or your browser is not configured to support ActiveX controls."
I have added the URL for the site in question to my "Trusted Sites" in Internet Explorer 10. I read through the KB 2716529. There is no TabProcGrowth registry entry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but there is one under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
and the value is set to "Medium" which appears to be accurate. I tried running the "Fix it For Me" option offered with that KB, and the wizard indicated the problem could not be found on my computer.
How can I resolve this issue? Utilizing slide libraries is a very important feature of SharePoint for my organization, and going back to Office 2010 is simply not an option.

Hi Jen_O,
According to your description, my understanding is that you were unable to publish Slides into SharePoint 2010 with Office 2013.
For narrowing this issue, let's verify the followings:
Please test on other machines with the same system configuration, compare the result.
Please test on other machines with 32-bit system and IE 10, compare the result.
Whether you are able to publish Slides from Windows 7 and Office 2013 32-bit.
Whether this issue occurres for all slide files with Office 2013.
Please create a new slide in PowerPoint 2013, and check if it could be uploaded into a new Slide library.
In addition, Office Web Apps (as part of SharePoint 2010) allow SharePoint users to view and edit Office documents (Word, PowerPoint, Excel etc.) from within the browser. Typically we can click on a link to a PowerPoint, for example in a document library,
and be taken to a new page to present PowerPoint.

Hi,
Besides the workflow way provided by Romeo, an alternative I can provide is that, you can also use
Event Receiver with SharePoint Object Model which can help to implement more complex requirements.
With Event Receiver, we can catch the moment when an item is added to a list which can help to run our custom code in the right timing.
Here is a step by step sample on creating a simple Item added event receiver for Custom List in SharePoint 2010:
