Controlling OneDrive for Business

Hi
We want to be able to deploy Onedrive to Business to contract staff that work for us and use there own laptop. However what we also want to do is remotely remove the software and the files from the users laptop once they leave the company.
Is this possible using InTune?
Thanks
Andrew

Not 100% sure - but if you enrolled the Laptop as a mobile device (do a connect to workplace from windows 8.1) in theory it should control the apps if you use the 'modern' applications from the store. So deploy those with the app policy.
However I imagine you can control the other apps, I just haven't had a chance to test it yet.

To me it seems SharePoint social networking features require the full SharePoint Server product AND are not available with the free SharePoint Foundation, If correct then why MS punching it here in Foundation without a friendly error message..

Cannot view InfoPath Form on SHarePoint 2013 since I removed SkyDrive for Business and installed OneDrive For Business

I removed SkyDrive for Business and installed OneDrive for Business on my laptop. After that, I had problems opening a Word and Excel document in a SharePoint site (SP2013). After installing Service Pack2 from Office2010, this problem is solved.
But I still have the same problem with InfoPath. Whenever I click an InfoPath form (I have InfoPath 2010 on my laptop),...
... I get the error "cannot display web page".
When I change the URL
ms-infopath:ofe|u|http://intranet.water-link.be/samenwerken/awwit/Autorisaties/Gebruikersbeheer/2015-02-25%20Aanvraag%20gebruikersbeheer%20voor%20Stephanie%20Geeraerts.xml

I can open the InfoPath form and read it.
Any ideas about how to fix this ? I already tried to restore the Office 2010 via Control Panel - Install Programs but without any success...

Hi Gert,
As I understand, you can’t open InfoPath form in SharePoint 2013 unless you change the URL without “ms-infopath:ofe|u|”.
There are some reasons which maybe cause this issue, and you can try to do things below:
Access CA -> General Application Settings -> Configure InfoPath Form Service -> Check the two options in User Browser-enabled Form Templates.
Go into the registry by typing regedit from the Run line and rename the SharePoint.OpenDocuments.5 key (ex. SharePoint.OpenDocuments.5.old) under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.
In library settings, click "relink documents to this library".
Here are some similar posts for your reference:

Sharepoint 2013 and Onedrive for Business

Hello,
I need help with understanding Onedrive and have few questions. It would be nice if someone can help me with this:
We have Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise and we will use OneDrive for Business with it. Now how is the user adminsitration works? Do I have to create new users or I can user that accounts from Active Directory? Everything is stored in SQL database.
Today users have home folders and is it good to replace it with OneDrive?

Hi,
When we use the OneDrive or OneDrive for Business, we should first understand the differences between them.
OneDrive for Business is a personal library intended for storing and organizing your work documents. As an integral part of Office 365 or SharePoint Server 2013, OneDrive for Business lets you work within the context of your organization, with features such
as direct access to your organization’s address book.
OneDrive for Business is online storage intended for business purposes. Your OneDrive for Business library is
managed by your organization and lets you share and collaborate on work documents with co-workers. Site collection administrators in your organization control what you can do in the library.
However, OneDrive is free online personal storage that you get with either a Microsoft account or Outlook.com. Use OneDrive to save
documents, photos, and other files in the cloud, share them with friends, and even collaborate on content. You’re free to decide how you want to use it.
NOTE In the header or elsewhere on your SharePoint or Office 365 site, ‘OneDrive’ appears as an abbreviation of OneDrive for Business to keep things simpler.
If you use the OneDrive, we don’t need create new users, and we couldn’t use the AD account . OneDrive use the Microsoft account or Outlook.com.
For more information, you can have a look at the following article.

Office 2013 applications crash when opening/saving files in OneDrive for Business folder

My setup:
Windows 7 64-bit
Office 2013 Professional
OneDrive for Business (connected to Office 365)
Issue Description:
Example 1:
1. I create a file in OneDrive for Business using the appropriate web app (Excel web app, for example).
2. I edit the file in the web app, I save the file in my OneDrive for Business
3. I sync OneDrive for Business with it's local folder
4. Now I open the folder in Windows Explorer and double-click the Excel file
5. Excel splash screen shows up for a bit, and then Excel crashes
Example 2:
1. I open Word on my Windows 7 laptop
2. I start from a blank document and create some content in the document
3. I use the Save As option under the File menu to save the file to my local OneDrive for Business folder
4. As soon as I click the Save button on the dialog, Word crashes
The same happens with all the Office applications.
Important Note:
If I run the above examples with Excel/Word in SAFE mode, there is absolutely no issue.
What have I done so far?
1. I have made sure that the DisplayLink driver is the latest version from the manufacturer
2. There is no bluetooth send-to add-in in any of the Office applications
3. No add-ins are enabled in any of the Office applications (not sure if there are "stealth" ones that are not visible in the Options/Add-Ins dialog?)
Any assistance with this would be much appreciated.
JeHarry

Hi JeHarry,
Because I didn't have Windows 7, I did a test with Windows 8.1 based on your description. However, in my testing, everything worked well.
Please repair your Office under Control Panel, compare the result.
This forum is for SharePoint On-premise, as your issue is about Office 365, I suggest you create a new thread on Office 365 forum, more experts will assist you with Office 365.

I have other office products on here including:
SharePoint Designer 2010
SharePoint Designer 2013
Microsoft PowerBI Designer Preview
and this is installed on Win 8.1 Enterprise
Kind of stumped what is causing this... I see KB2920798 mentions this error message is now added when cant open a document due to a mix of click-to-run and MSI install for office. I only have click to run for Office 2013 and the MSIs are only for
addons in excel (power query) and the additional Microsoft Software...
Anyone have ideas what is causing this and how to resolve?
I just finished applying March 2015 C2R updated on Office and the same issue recurred. This time I simply rebooted and it resolved. My best guess is it has something to do with a locked file that can't be updated but the Office Update installer
doesn't prompt to reboot.

I have the same problem. But I have Czech versions of the Word and OneDrive for Business ("OneDrive pro firmy").
I do not have the SharePoint Designer nor update KB2020798. I received KB2920746
on 11th February (plus other updates for Office, but any other for OneDrive for Business). Anyway,
uninstall of the KB2920746 doesn't help.
The error in Czech:

Does on-premises OneDrive for Business ***REQUIRE*** an Organization ID for synchronization to local systems?

We have an on-premises SharePoint 2013 SP1 deployment in our lab. We access the server through three methods: direct LAN access inside the firewall, over the Internet via Forefront TMG, and over the Internet via DirectAccess. In all three access
cases, almost everything functions exactly as expected.
One exception is OneDrive for Business (the on-premises version). After creating my MySite, I can browse my OneDrive for Business, upload/download files, preview documents, share with other SharePoint users, etc. That stuff works properly.
But if I click the Sync link to establish a synchronization connection between my OneDrive for Business and my desktop system, the "We're getting things ready to sync..." dialog gets overridden by a OneDrive for Business error box - "We can't
connect to the specified SharePoint site...".
We see this behavior whether inside or outside the firewall. I am logged into Windows, Office 2013 applications, and SharePoint using the same credentials: my Windows domain account.
Running Wireshark and Fiddler on my workstation, I see conversations being sent to live.microsoft.com when I click on the Sync link. This leads me to believe that *ALL* such sync connections are established by looking up the user's account in the Microsoft
cloud (even if the credentials are for an on-premises domain) and, further, that because of this, businesses must create an official in-cloud Organization ID for their domain even if they are not actually using Office365 services (e.g. even if they are only
using on-premises SharePoint) if they want to sync with on-premises OneDrive for Business.
I have seen almost zero documentation about this, and certainly nothing that states that you MUST register for an Organization ID even if you are only using on-premises SharePoint and on-premises OneDrive for Business, yet this seems to be the behavior I
see and that theory seems to be supported by my network traces.
So...
1) Can anyone confirm or deny this theory, or at least give a lot more detail about how SharePoint attempts to "find" the service when you click on the Sync link?
2) If you HAVE successfully set up on-premises OneDrive for Business and have NOT had to register an Organization ID, can you please share the details of how you configured things?
Many thanks for any help or pointers...

I Just checked pre-requisites for Onedrive on-prem:
To support OneDrive for Business document libraries in SharePoint Server 2013, you must have:
A SharePoint Server 2013 My Site Host.
Configured the User Profile Service application.
The user must have an existing My Site with the personal site collection created.
To support synchronizing document libraries to a user's client workstation with the OneDrive for Business Windows Sync client, you must have:
Either
Office 2013 Standard or Office 2013 Professional Plus, or the stand-alone OneDrive for Business Windows Sync client.
An Office 365 subscription that includes the Office 2013 applications.
Client workstations running Windows 7 or Windows 8.
If you have to purchase Office 365 then you will need Organization ID which will be required for Document SYNC, or yous should have Office 2013 installed on system.
If this helped you resolve your issue, please mark it Answered

Synchronization issues on OneDrive for Business

Hi,
Our OneDrive for Business experience is very confusing here. We are in the middle of a few synchronization problems that our users don't understand.
Could not insert my screenshots, so please pardon me if the description is not clear. Full topic with screenshots can be found here: http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/172/p/273549/836906.aspx
Description of the problem
We have a lot of users using OneDrive for Business to synchronize three shared libraries stored on a on-premise installation of SharePoint 2013. The first setup has run (almost) smoothly, and all my users had a synchronized version of the files on the server
(around 2GB of data). We are in the beginning of our deployment, so the users have not used it very intensively yet, and probably this is why problems start appearing.
On computer 1, a file/folder reorganization has been realized within one folder (folder "TRAININGS") of one the libraries: creating new folders, moving files from one folder to another, renaming other folders and deleting old folders. Changes have
been processed, and Computer 1 is now in sync with server: they now share the same file/folder organization under the "TRAININGS" folder. Also, on Computer 1, all folders and files show the "green tick" on their icon, showing that sync
is completed.
On computer 1, the OneDrive icon in the Windows task bar shows the synchronization is complete and does not show any sync issues.
On computer 2, the folder "TRAINING" is a mess. The folder "TRAINING"'s icon has been the "blue arrows" for a while. Inside, I have a mix of "green tick", "blue arrows" and no icon status.
Every now and then, the folder CATEGORIES turns to "green tick", then goes back to "blue arrows".
If we drill down inside the sub-folders, I have the same bahaviour, some folders have "green tick", some other "blue arrows" and some other no icon status. I do not understand the logic.
On Computer 2, no files or folders inside "TRAININGS" folder have never been opened by user "Fra".
However, on SharePoint, I see that some files in the tree of the "TRAININGS" folder that have "last modified by" with name of the user in Computer 2, even though this user "Fra" never modified that precise file. Only user "Cla"
did some modifications on the files and folders.
For example, we are missing folder "TRAININGS\CATEGORIES\CATALOG STRUCTURE" on Computer 2.
I do not understand what is going wrong there...
Questions already answered:
To save time for diagnosis:
1. Does the issue only happen on the Computer 2? Please choose a PC and login with a problematic which have different issue to see what will happen.
No, it happens also on a different PC, but with different status for each file.
2. Have the files they upload met the restrictions of syncing SharePoint libraries?
No they have not:
No special character in File Name
524 files and 257 folders in the library
Max length of full folder and file name is 157 characters.
No invalid file types
I have no idea if any file is open on any computer, and have no way of knowing it, with users all over the world.
3. Have you tried to repair OneDrive for Business via right-clicking the OneDrive for Business icon then clicking repair? If not, please give it a shot and provide us with the result.
Repair has been tested and does not help.
4. Could you please clean the cache of OneDrive for Business to see if the issue persists?
I have already tried deleting the Office Offline Cache on a similar problem one week ago. It is a pain in the neck since I have to do it on all my users who have problem (starts to be a lot), it involves re-downloading the whole contents of the libraries
(2GB) and it does NOT solve the problem since it reappears one week later on a different set of files.
Full delete of Office Offline Files temporarily solves the incident until the problem occurs again later. So doesn't help either.
Please keep in mind I have over 30 other computers that have these libraries synced in 4 different countries, and I do not know whether they are properly synced or not. Repairing or resetting on the client computers is not an option if I am not sure I have
completely solved the problem and I know for sure it will not happen again.
5. How many files in these shared libraries? Generally, when suing OneDrive for Business, we don't recommend uploading/syncing a lot of files at a time.
The folder "TRAININGS" where all changes have been made contains only 64 files and 42 folders.
The library which contains the "TRAININGS" folder contains 524 files and 257 folders. But these files and folders have not been touched, except for the "TRAININGS" folder.
I believe I am way under the 100 files that have moved at the same time.
6. How long has the problem been waiting for? Have you tried letting it solve by itself?.
Today, after 12 hours, Computer 2, 3 and 4 are still in the same state, synchronization is stuck.
Can you please help me diagnose the issue and make sure it does not happen again?
Thanks a lot.

New update that might help.
I have noticed on Computer 2 an anormal growth of the "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\OfficeFileCache" folder.
The total synced libraries (both with Office365 and with on-premise SharePoint) have a size of 5.5 GB.
The OfficeFileCache folder has a size of 21.6GB and is growing by the minute.
If I pause the sync, the folder stops growing. If I resume the sync, the folder grows.
The changes are the following:
File CentralTable21873.accdb has different date modified, but size remains the same.
Files FSD-{id}.FSD (131,072 bytes) and FSF-{id}.FSF (114 bytes) are created. These files are created by pair, almost every second.
Please find below extract of the contents of the OfficeFileCache on Computer 2. I stopped the sync at 12:07.

Software bug in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (IOS)

I found a software bug in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS) and is related to the space characters inside the logon name. I am using SharePoint 2013 (15.0.4617.1000 June 2014 CU) and my setup
corresponds with the OneDrive for Business App requirements.
I am not able to connect using OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS) to the SharePoint 2013 OneDrive personal site if the logon name has space characters in it. With the same user account, but this time with the logon name changed (removed all
the space characters) the authentication works and I am able to configure the app (OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 - iOS).
I wrote more details here
http://www.vioreliftode.com/index.php/software-bug-in-onedrive-for-business-1-2-2-ios/.
Any other of you in the same situation?

Hi,
I understand that the issue occurred in OneDrive for Business 1.2.2 (iOS).
If this is a suspicious bug, I recommend you to open a ticket with Microsoft.
In the meanwhile, you can post the thread at the OneDrive support forum:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/forum/ .
More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to OneDrive for Business.

Publishing: Sharepoint WorkSpace Vs OneDrive for business

I've SharePoint 2013 on premise with OneDrive for business. I've published SharePoint Site Collection App with Web Application Proxy (WAP). When a user is at home, he can creates files on his OneDrive folder, these files are automatically synchronize with
SharePoint 2013 server, OK ??
With SharePoint 2010 workspace, I think is different, user doesn't have a specific folder like OneDrive. When user is at home and creates a new file. Is this synchronize to SharePoint server ??? Must I publish something on WAP ??

SharePoint 2010 workspace syncs with SharePoint 2010. If a user creates a document in a SharePoint Workspace library at home it will sync with SharePoint 2010 the next time they log in to the SharePoint 2010 environment. If SharePoint is published
through WAP it probably limits the number of ports available. Which will keep the Workspace from syncing at that point. But when the user comes back on-premises the document will sync with the SharePoint 2010 environment. Workspace will still work
with SharePoint 2013, but it has been deprecated and will be going away at some time in the future.

Users are unable to synchronize document libraries with OneDrive for Business

Hello,
We are having an issue with our users attempting to synchronize document libraries with OneDrive for Business. When a user tried to synchronize the document library either via the "SYNC" button on the document library page using IE or by
manually entering the document libraries path into the OneDrive for Business desktop app they receive the following error
"We can't connect to the specified SharePoint site". The users have the Edit permission to both the site and the document library. I have performed the following actions in attempt to get the synchronization to work.
1. Tested giving user the owner permission to the site and document library. same result.
2. Performed a repair on the users Office 2013 installation.
An interesting point to note is that I myself am able to synchronize the document libraries using both the "SYNC" button on the document library site and by entering the path manually in the desktop app. Difference between my account and the test
accounts is that I'm a site collection administrator and farm administrator. Can anyone shed some light onto this issue?

Hi Corey,
According to your description, my understanding is that the users cannot sync document libraries with OneDrive for Business.
I recommend to check the Permission Level to see if the Use Client Integration Features permission is selected.
If not, check this permission in the corresponding permission level which is granted to the users.
Please also check if the users have the right permission to sync the document library with OneDrive for Business.

Help! Windows Explorer crashes regularly when using "SharePoint" directory synced with OneDrive for Business

We are using SharePoint 2013 and I want to sync document libraries with
OneDrive for Business with my PC running Windows 7.
In general, it works, but my Windows Explorer crashes very often (after a few minutes) when I navigate in the synced directories and open files there (or copy files into them in Windows Explorer).
How can I find out what happens and how to avoid it?
remark:
We are still using Office 2007, so I installed only OneDrive for Business from the Office 2013 DVD and
deactivated all other components like Office 2013 by hand:
(so for example, the shared office feature or MS Info Path etc. were not installed)
Is there a crash log, where I can find more information about the crash?
Does OneDrive maybe need other components to be installed and can I install them without damaging my existing Office 2007 setup?

Did you check your Event Viewer for any errors during the time when Windows Explorer crashed?
Thanks for this hint!
The Log file says the following, so it seems to be WIDCOMM\Bluetooth Software\btncopy.dll
to be responsible for the crashing Windows Explorer

Office OneNote 2013 working with OneDrive for Business

M$ is going to be the death of me.
So here's what I have Windows 8.1 Pro with Office 2013 Pro with OneDrive for Business with our own SharePoint 2013 environment running on a tablet.
I open this lovely OneNote Product and all it asks me is to sign into my M$ Account, I don't want to use my M$ account I want it to just open and allow me to create a new notebook... It just asks me to sign into my M$ account. I don't want to
do that.
So I got into my SharePoint document library,click New document, create onenote document, open it and OneNote prompts me to log into my M$ account....
I don't want to use my M$ account, I want to use my OneDrive For Business and the SharePoint 2013 environment we've paid thousands of dollars for...
Another funny thing I found is, OneNote 2013 for Mac, works with OneDrive for Business?!?! On Windows? NOPE!
Am I missing something simple?

Issues when trying to setup alternate sync location of OneDrive for Business / SharePoint 2013 Libraries

Hello,
I have an issue that prevents me from choosing the alternate location of sync'ed OneDrive for Business folders. I'm trying to setup an alternate location for synchronization, using the guidelines found in the Office support web site.
The option to replace the default sync location appears the first time a SharePoint 2013 Library or OneDrive for Business is setup for synchronization.
Here would be a link to a snapshot (since my account has not been verified): /Forums/getfile/443247
At this point, the Library or personal OneDrive folder syncs correctly and the files are stored in the alternate choosen location.
However, on when trying to setup an additionnal Library for synchronization, the alternate sync location has not been saved and reverts to the default sync location. Furthermore, the option to replace the default sync location does no longer appear
on the dialog box.
Here would be a link to a snapshot (since my account has not been verified): /Forums/getfile/443249
I have tried by first sync'ing a SharePoint 2013 Library (instead of the personal OneDrive for Business folder) with the same result. Meaning that the first SharePoint 2013 Library correctly sync's in the alternate location of my choosing. However,
any subsequent attempts to sync either a SharePoint 2013 Library or the OneDrive for Business folder results in them being sync'ed to the original default location in a folder under the user's profile directory.
I'm using Office Professional Plus 2013 (64bits). The version of Groove.exe is 15.0.4605.1000 (12th March 2014 - 13 383 360 bytes).
Is there something I'm missing ?
Thanks for any help on this issue.

Hi SpringComp,
You can change the root path for libraries you sync to your computer, though you can do this only if you’re not currently syncing any libraries. If you’re already syncing at least one library and you want to change the path, you must first
stop syncing all libraries. Then, the first time you run the OneDrive for Business wizard to sync a library to your computer, you’ll see an option to change the location.
More information, please refer to the link:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/support/change-the-location-where-you-sync-sharepoint-libraries-on-your-computer-HA102893480.aspx
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
