Donot Use Microsoft IE 7.0 beta - browsers

Hi
Donot use / install Microsoft IE 7.0 beta browsers on user's desktops. It causes problems for user to access help via F1. When a user with IE7, presses F1 The help dialog comes up with blank page.
We have had this problem with users. Upon uninstalling the F1 help works fine.
Hope this information is useful.

Welcome to Apple Communities
You can install Office for Mac. If you don't want it, Boot Camp uses all the hardware, so it has the best performance for Windows, and Parallels allows you to run Windows in Mac without reboot and without Boot Camp. To use only this, download Parallels

What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
(I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...)

Firefox 3.6.6 Not Displaying Gmail Contacts & Calendar and at least 1 other website correctly after using Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer

== Issue
==
I have another kind of problem with Firefox
== Description
==
In migrating from an XP PC to a new Win 7 PC, I downloaded Firefox to the new PC and it worked fine - got my Gmail contacts, calendar, etc. Later I used Micros Soft's Windows Easy Transfer to move data, profiles, etc to the new PC. Then could log onto Gmail but it would not show Contacts or Calendar. I then uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it - nohelp, then I did a system to Restore to before I did the Windows Easy Transfer - no help, then I manually moved my Firefox Profile from the XP machine - no help. BTW at least one other website does not display correctly: http://www.hollandamerica.com/main/Main.action. NOTE - through all this Internet Explorer has shown these sites correctly.
== This happened
==
Every time Firefox opened
== Used Microsoft Windows Easy Transfer

Better browsers than FireFox with spell checks?

I've been using FireFox but it's slow and wouldn't response sometimes,are there any better browsers that also provide spell checks?Thanks!

try this to speed up firefox:
1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit return. Scroll
down and look for the following entries:
network.http.pipelining
network.http.proxy.pipelining
network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time.
When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really
speeds up page loading.
2. Alter the entries as follows:
Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests " to some number like 60. This
means it will make 60 requests at once.
3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer.
Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0".
This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.

Excel Error When Using Microsoft Data Link

I   have   a   user   who   is   running   the   following:
Windows   7   w/64   bit   OS
MS   Office   2010
SAS   9.3   Software
They   created   a   database   in   Excel   and   have   integrated   the   information   with   SAS   9.3   database.
For   some   reason,   now   when   they   try   to   'Refresh'   data   in   the   Excel   spreadsheet,   Excel
freezes   and   then   crashes.
I   believe   it's   because   the   'Microsoft   Data   Link'   is   failing,   during   set-up.    Below   are
the   error   messages   they   get,   when   trying   to   set-up   the   'Microsoft   Data   Link'   with   the
SAS   9.3   software:

TROUBLESHOOTING   I'VE   TRIED:
Repair   of   MS   Office   2010
Uninstall/Reinstall   Excel   2010
Any   assistance   would   be   appreciated.

Hi,
In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
Did this issue occur with other database program? Such as Access, SQL sever or other?
If the Excel still crashes, I recommend we collect the Event log and App crash dump file to do further troubleshooting. You can try to analyze dump by
yourself if you would like to：
How to analyze app crash dump file:

Also you can send them to us via Email ([email protected])
If the issue occur with the SAS 9.3 software, I recommend you connect it's provider or support to get more help.
Did you
use 'Microsoft Data Link' like this?
If it was, we may need to debug the connecting string, you can post the question to Visual Studio forum.
Hope it's helpful.

Using Microsoft Exchange to access Gmail (Google Apps for Business) contacts, what is the best way to sync the Corporate Directory?

Using Microsoft Exchange to access Gmail (Google Apps for Business) contacts, what is the best way to sync the Corporate Directory? For instance, we have 40 staff members and wish to populate each phone with the Gmail profile. Right now we have a third party Android app that does this and copies my contacts to each phone. This is problematic. Any solutions to populate a phone with email and phone contacts? Even it it requires double entry for me...thats ok.

Oh, I meant Leopard does do more than Tiger Server.
I don't know enough about Server, even less abut Syncing.
SL is to new, not enough time to iron out the kinks yet imho.
One day SL will be better than Leo, but...
I'd ask over in server...

Or perhaps Collaboration Services...

They may even have a different opinion on SL.

What Versions of Visual Studio Can Use Microsoft Test Manager

Hello all!
I was wondering what versions of Visual Studio can use Microsoft Test Manager, a friend is having issue using MTM and can't get it working. She doesn't know if it's a product key issue or if it's the version of Visual Studio she's using, She is using Visual
Studio Server 2013.
Thank all!

Hi machopper,
Thank you for posting in MSND forum.
Based on your issue, as far as I know that the Visual Studio Ultimate, Visual Studio Premium, Test Professional include MTM.

Once I installed Lion I can't use microsoft word. ***???

Can someone please tell me how to use Microsoft Word with Lion?????

What version of Word?
I bet it is the old PPC version which Lion is unable to execute seeing as how it no longer has Rosetta.
Allan

I downloaded lion and now I cannot use Microsoft Office

I downloaded Lion and now I cannot use Microsoft Office...

Yeah, the problem is that Office 2004 is still the best
I actually like iWork WAY better than Office, and it can export into Office formats if you need it to. iWork is way more stable, easier to use, less "clunky", and has some cool features in it. However, I admit that Excel is better than Numbers.
Also, it's $80, not $200.

Pros/cons of using Microsoft Office vs. iWork

Soon I will be buying a Macbook, and I am trying to determine whether or not to have Mic. Office 2007 Home/Student or iWork installed? I wanted to know what people recommend or their opinions on either and which one works best and is user friendly with respect to compatibility issues with sending/receiving info to/from PC's? Thanks

It really depends on what you need to do with it. If you need to do presentations through Powerpoint then that will be difficult. Pages will transfer seamlessly for almost everything and so will Numbers. The issue with Keynote to Powerpoint is because Keynote is to advanced to Powerpoint and doesn't match with its transitions. For instance if you wanted to do magic move or text transitions on Powerpoint, you can't because Powerpoint isn't as advanced so when you export from Keynote to PPT it will not transfer those transitions. So you have to keep the transitions very minimal. I personally love iWork and think it is better than Microsoft's stuff (cheaper and better). But if the school requires Powerpoint stuff to be done on THEIR computers then you might want to use Microsoft's crappy stuff.
Here are the links for both...

http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB943Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDA0OA&mco=MzE3MTU2MA
Also if you order iWork with your macbook it is only 50 bucks, you can also always try the trial for 30 days and see how it works.

Msi progress using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller.

Hi Everyone,
In Windows application, install msi in silent mode using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller namespace in
button click event.
string msiPackage = @"D:\MSI\feb20\Sample.msi";
Installer.SetInternalUI(InstallUIOptions.Silent);
Installer.InstallProduct(msiPackage, "REBOOT=R");
When click button then msi install
successfully and everything is working fine. So is it possible to "catch" progress
using Microsoft.Deployment.WindowsInstaller namespace and update a progressbar on my app?
So, is it possibile? Is there something we can do in C# or is it a very hard task that requires a lot of knowledge I don't have?
Please help me regarding this.

Hi
Cheranarasu,
After do some research. there is a command-line options named
Msiexec.exe. It's pretty useful to run msiexec with proper arguments to accomplish this task.
Like the following cmd
msiexec /i A:\Example.msi
To use the administrative installation option
In C#, we can use
ProcessStartInfo Class to start.
You can add flags to the MSIEXEC to control what type of installation you want -- such as whether it is silent, whether it displays a progress bar, whether UI is included, etc.
For more detailed information, please refer to some similar threads as below.
Progress bar on installing an external msi
MsiExec progress catch
How to interactive a silently installing msi? (Progress data and cancel it)
You'll get more inspirations.
Best regards,
Kristin

Is it supported to use Microsoft JDBC driver use in Java 7 (and 8) multithreaded applications?

Hello everone
is it supported to use Microsoft JDBC driver (the latest version) with Java 7 multithreaded application?
I am planning to use standard Java 7 threads library and use separate JDBC objects per each thread, i.e. Java threads will not share any JDBC objects among them, only the thread-safe Java collections/data structures will be shared between threads (such as
ConcurrentHashMap etc). The JDBC connections, resultsets, statements, etc will be created and dedicated per each individual thread.
If it is supported - do you expect this design to scale-up well or am I better off using multiple but single-threaded Java/JBDC programs to access SQL Server 2012/2014 from Microsoft JDBC driver?
Thanks

>is it supported to use Microsoft JDBC driver (the latest version) with Java 7 multithreaded application?
Yes, so long as:
> Java threads will not share any JDBC objects among them,
>do you expect this design to scale-up well or am I better off using multiple but single-threaded Java/JBDC programs >to access SQL Server 2012/2014 from Microsoft JDBC driver?
Using threads should scale better than using processes (at least on Windows), as there is quite a bit of overhead with a process. Each process has it's own JRE, it's own GC heap, its own threads...
The bigger question, though, is how this scales on the SQL Server. Your throughput may be limited by resources on your database server, and the thread's workloads may not be able to run concurrently because of locking.

I am using Microsoft OUtlook Web Access for work email and I am losing functionality. What do I do?

I use Microsoft Outlook Web Access for work emails when not at the office4 and I cannot/do not have any options to enlarge text or change fonts, etc. What do I need to do to make it work as if IE were my default browser?
Thanks.

Outlook Web App (new name) on Exchange Server 2010 should be quite full featured. The Outlook Web Access supplied with Exchange 2003 didn't offer a very good experience for browsers other than IE...
Could you describe where the problem with fonts is: when composing messages, or when reading/working with the UI?

How can I use Microsoft Office on two user accounts on one IMAc?

Dear all,
I have installed Microsoft Office 2011 on my IMac which I have recently bought. I did this on the (at that time) only user account in place: the administrator account.
A little time after this my wife and I decided it would be much easier to us to make an additional user account on the same computer for my wife (also with administrator rights), so we could have our own settings, desktop preferences etc. So now we have two user accounts/profiles on one Imac, so far so good.
But when my wife signs in on her account, she is not able to use Microsoft Office . Office seems to be only available to the user account on which it has been installed initially: 'my' account.
Can anyone help us out here and tell us how we can make Office available to my wife's user account as well? I understand that the licence of Office is restricted to one computer, but what about two accounts on the same IMac? I mean, it is still one computer, one 'home', one family etc.
We would appreciate your help here!
Kind regards,
Jurjen

As long as you installed MS Office into its default location (the top level /Applications folder) it will be available to all user accounts on the Mac.
As far as licensing is concerned you only have to enter the license code once, which you should do right after installing MS Office, in the same admin account you installed it from, by opening any one of the MS Office applications. There is no additional licensing required for additional user accounts on the same Mac.
Each user account is able to run the Office apps. The only thing you will have to do is go through an initial setup screen in each user account (but this setup does NOT involve entering any additional license codes).
You may have problems if you installed MS Office in a particular user account (i.e. NOT in the top level /Applications folder).
