a draft Excel will hang/freeze even if when i send off the draft. <o:p></o:p>
I am aware of the hotifx https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2817349 this has been installed and doesnt make any difference. I have tired repairing
Microsoft Office and rebooting but doesnt make a difference. Microsft Office 2013 pro is running on Windows 2008 r2 terminal server.

Has anyone had this issue or know if there is a fix?

Hi,
In regarding of the issue, it might be caused by some reasons:
Firstly, the Outlook and Excel add-ins might cause this issue, please try to disable them to test first. Similar issue:
Secondly, this issue also might be caused by "Mapi32.dll", please rename Mapi32.dll (found in C:\Windows\system32) to Mapi32.old and then run
FIXMAPI.exe .
Thirdly, check the properties for your outlook shortcut. Under the compatability tab uncheck "run as administrator".
If this issue still exists, please try to collect the app crash dump file to do further troubleshooting:
Enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing
it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\EXCEL.EXE]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\
  00,6d,00,70,00,73,00,00,00
"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001
"CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
Then, open excel
to repro the issue. If crash issue appeared, please find the crashdump file under c:\.
To further help you, please upload this file into Skydrive and shared the link here.
Also, you can try to analyze dump by yourself if you would like to：

  • Excel 2013 hangs after sharing document per email

    Hello everyone.
    We have an issue with Outlook 2013.
    If you disable local email caching in Outlook 2013 and you are trying to share a document via email in e.g. Excel (but also Acrobat reader and several other programs) the email gets send, but Excel hangs (not responding). 
    When you enable the local cache the problem disappears.
    This is an issue for us, since we are using ssd's with limited capacity and the cache file can increase untill somewhere between 25 and 30 GB.
    Is there a different solution to this issue? And why is this happening in the first place?

    Hi,
    Try to test whether the issue will occur to all the computers. If not, then try to repair and disable all the add-ins to check the issue.

  • Excel 2013 hangs when previewing xls file made by Reporting Server 2008

    Hi all.
    I have a unusual error in excel 2013. We have a homepage that delivers statics to our users and there you can choose to export the webpage to a xls file via SQL ReportingServer 2008. The thing is when I open this exported file in Excel and hit the print
    button, excel crashes. It seems to crash during the preview of the document. If I make a document by hand that has exactly the same format as the exported document, excel will preview and print it. 
    I have tried to change default printer and printer drivers but no success. Office 2013 is also up to date.
    If I save the document from SRSS and try to print it from another computer with Excel 2013 installed, it crashes Excel.
    Any suggestions? 

    Hi,
    Did you use another Excel file to preview or print? Did the Excel crash again?
    I recommend we export a different webpage to a XLSX, then we test it again.
    I notice that you try to print the document from another compute and also crashed Excel.
    Following this, I suppose that there were some underidentified characters in the file.
    After that, I suggest we save as the file to PDF to test.

    I have tried printing another excelfile without problems. Infact I can make a replica manually of the report and print it without problem. I can't narrow it down to either a RS fault or Excel fault cause the logfiles don't say much. If I export the report
    to a PDF it prints fine, but my users will complain about lack of editing :-)
    If I save the xls file to xlsx and tries to print it also hangs in print preview.
    An interesting thing is when i export the file to PDF/XPS (PDF in this case) it also hangs Excel... 
    How do I look for underidentified
    characters in the file? I don't see anything in the spreadsheet.  
     

  • Word/Excel 2013 Hangs when trying to open mapped drive

    Issue: 
    when opening up a document from a shared drive, microsoft word will freeze. This also happens with excel.(the freezing occurs right as you try to browse to "My Computer" you can browse anywhere else and it will not freeze) 
    I have tested this with wordpad/notepad and the problem does not occur in those applications.
    I have been able to duplicate it with different documents, multiple times.
    For troubleshooting currently I've:
    Repaired Office
    Re-installed Office
    Restarted the Computer
    Disabled Add-ons
    Disabled on SMB 2 on server & client workstation
    Tried different user accounts
    Disabled firewalls/anti-viruses
    Deleted the Word Data registry keys
    Not sure what I am overlooking and appreciate any help and support. 
    Some additional information: 
    If I connect to the shared drive via the IP address (start -->run --> 192.168.x.x) then browse to the files, I can open them just fine. 
    Office 2013
    Windows 7 64-bit

    Hi,
    I would first suggest you to check your mapped network shares, check if it is located on a slow or a down-level computer, or is connected across a wide area network.
    Take a look at this KB article and try the methods listed in it:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313937
    Note: although the link applies for Office 2007, the steps should also applicable to Office 2013.

  • InDesign CS6 (8.1) hangs when opening documents, intermittent

    InDesign CS6 (8.1) hangs when opening documents, intermittent, and a document that hangs InDesign, after restarting InDesign, will open fine. I found the following track, Re: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding  for instructions to "force a hang into a crash" and am posting the crash logs to  pastebin.com
    This is the sample process report OPI_Sample9MAY15 - Pastebin.com
    This is the corresponding InDesign Crash log OPI_InDesignCrashLog9MAY15 - Pastebin.com
    I am hoping that someone might be able to read the logs and tell me what is causing InDesign to hang
    For more background information we are using Mac OS X 10.10.3, Within indesign we are using an editorial management software called "NewsEngin GPS" that utilizes Rohohiko's ADIP ToolAssistant plugin and an advertising management plugin "Pagelink" from Mactive/NewsCycle Solutions. These are the only 3 third party vendors that are being used and of course all claim that their products separately are stable under Mac OS 10.10 and InDesign CS6 v8.1.

    Did you try to export the INDD file to IDML, open that and work with the new files?

  • Excel 2013 hangs while trying to open a file from network share

    Hi,
    I am having issue opening excel file from a network share. it happens randomly, the file opens and hangs abruptly. Nothing happens after that ( we can only move the cursor), if we click on the excel sheet we get a beep sound. after i kill the excel process
    and open it again ,it works fine.
    Where did the member use the Excel file? Local disk, SharePoint, File server, or network shared disk?
           Network shared file and sometime locally
    Does the issue occur in the special file or every file?
          it happens randomly and the whole excel freezes. i have to kill the excel session.
    Which Office version is the file created? Excel 2013 or early? If it is XLS format, please try to convert to XLSX to test.
         Network file server has office 2010 and the user is trying to open it in excel 2013
      Does the file have some macros?
     Yes, they have macros in some files 
    Does the issue occur recently? If it is, have you installed some programs or update before you encountered it?
           it happened before too.
    Do you get some error message when Excel crashed?
    Yeah. Attaching the error message from event viewer. We get file corrupt errors and below too.

  • Office 2013 hangs when saving files to local profile locations on Windows 2012 server

    We installed Office 2013 a few weeks ago instead of Office 2003 on a Windows 2012 standard terminal server. We installed the last updates and Office is up-to-date now, but we experience problems with saving word, excel and powerpoint documents when we start
    a new/clean document. It's not possible to save our documents to the local profile (desktop, documents etc.), but it's no problem to save our stuff to a network share on a different server. 
    Word is not responding after pressing save or save as and after a few seconds we see the 'microsoft is looking for a solution and will restart microsoft word'. 
    We did a complete reinstall of Office 2013 and removed the old installation with the removal tool from the microsoft website, without luck. We have the same saving issues with Office 2010, so it's not an Office 2013 issue. 
    We were looking in the access/rights on the terminal server, because we thought that it was an access/rights issue. But unfortunately we have the same problem with an domain admin user. 
    I tried to disable DEP and my AVG 2012 antivirus, but this steps are also not the issue.
    I'm looking for a solution and i'm working on this case for a few days now. It gives me a headache when i'm thinking about a clean installation of this server. So please contact me when you have a solution or a tip to solve this problems! 
    Thanks!

  • Excel 2013 hangs on opening a file on network

    Hello,
    I have a user that is having problems opening some Excel files(.xlsx) from a specific folder on the network. I can open them fine with Excel 2013 and others can as well, even at the user's location which is off-site from the main building. These files are
    about 2.5 to 3.5Mb in size. I could open a 62Kb file on the persons computer but the larger files Excel just sits there with the spinning cursor and the program window 'blinks', kind of like when you make it the active window then click somewhere else then
    back. I can go up one level then into a different folder and have no issues opening Excel files there. I've tried opening through Safe Mode but it has the same behavior, performed a repair on Office as well as an Open and Repair on the file, made sure it was
    a trusted location  and disabled hardware acceleration. Nothing is working. What else can I try to troubleshoot this issue?
    On a side note and I'm not sure if this is helpful but when they tried opening the file, I never saw the temp file created like I do when you open any Office document.

    I tried both and at first the xlsb file was hanging but I logged off to try other things under my account then logged back on again and it opened though pretty slow. I tried from my account as well and it is very slow but does eventually open. Under the
    users account I copied the file to her desktop and it opens with no problem. The permissions are the same on all similar level folders yet the user can open Excel files from them with no problem and even larger than the problem files.
    Edit: My mistake, the green progress bar happens on other folders as well. Talking with one of the senior IT who installed the system, this user is the last person of a chain from microwave>switch and fiber link>another switch and fiber link so just
    may be a physical issue though from my experience the one folder 'seems' to have the most trouble in opening the Excel files.
    Also tried disconnecting the network drive then reclogging to let the scripts recreate it. No luck with that approach either.

  • Microsoft Word Hangs When Opening Document From SharePoint 2010 Document Library

    I am running into an issue where Word hangs when opening certain files from a document library.  When the issue occurs, Word opens and hangs at the Downloading <Doc URL> stage.  I have tried disabling the SharePoint plugins in IE and that
    makes no difference.  I can download a local copy of the file and open in just fine.  The file in questions exists in a separate document library where it can be opened just fine (The file was copied to the library where the issue is occurring by
    a Workflow).  The issue also has only occurred on .docx files and not .doc, however, not all docx files are having the issue.
    Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be causing this?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that when you opened a certain files from a document library, it hanged at the downloading stage.
    I tried to reproduce the issue, after coping by a workflow, the .docx files opened well in my environment.
    Did the issue occur in other documents libraries? You can copy the files to a new documents library by workflow, then check whether it works.
    For more details we also can check the SharePoint ULS logs.
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS
    Have you check your IE settings (Tools->options->connections->LAN settings->uncheck Automatically detect settings).
    Please also use fidder tools to detect the process. You can download it by the following link.

  • Excel 2013 crashes when creating VFP OLE DB Data connection

    Hi all,
    I don't know how often the DBF format is used in Office but it seems some demand still exists because Microsoft created 64 bit version of dBase ODBC and OLE DB driver (in Access data engine). Then I don't understand why Microsoft ignores its own FoxPro
    DBF data format because FoxPro ODBC driver is not supported already and no 64 bit version of VFP OLE DB driver is planned...
    I am testing DBF file import to Excel 2013 (32 bit) but it crashes instantly. I have VFP OLE DB driver (the last version), some small DBF file, and I am trying to read it as external data in Excel.
    Steps to reproduce (menu prompts are translated, so some differences may occur):
    Open empty worksheet
    Click "Other data sources" on Data ribbon
    Select Data Connection Wizard and from the list of available drivers select "Other" and click "Next"
    A list of OLE DB providers installed appears, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro and click "Next >>"
    Excel 2013 crashes...
    This process works in Excel 2010 and 2007 so the problem must be in Excel 2013...
    The question is how to read DBF data in FoxPro format when there is no older Office version available?

    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Excel
    Open an Excel worksheet.
    From the Data menu, point to Import External Data, and click
    Import Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Word
    Open a Word document.
    From the View menu, point to Toolbars, and click
    Database.
    On the Database toolbar, click the Insert Database icon.
    In the Database dialog box, click Get Data.
    In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
    In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
    In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
    The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
    To add a Visual FoxPro database or table folder
    On the Connection tab and in the Select or enter a database name box, type path and name of the database or table folder you want. 
    -or- 
    To browse for a Visual FoxPro database or table folder, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the
    Select or enter a database name box to open the Configure Connection dialog box.
    Specify a different collating sequence if desired.
    To test the connection, click Test Connection. If connection is successful, click
    OK.

  • T440P [20AN] - Lync 2013 Crashing When Sharing Desktop - Intel Driver

    Hello,
    After updating to the latest video drivers from the ThinkVantage Update Retriever, our Lync clients crash when sharing desktop on our T440P series and X240 series.  I noticed when I uninstall the video driver I am able to screen share without incident.  Also, if I update the driver from Windows Update I am able to share successfully.  We use the update retriever and thininstaller to install our drivers in our environment.  I have tried uninstalling the Lync updates all the way down to the base version and experience the same issue at every level.  It crashes 100% of the time when sharing desktop.  I have tested it on T440p machines in our environment that do not have the latest display driver, and no crashes occurred.  Here are the specifics:

    Just as an updated to this:
    I'm still waiting on updated drivers to fix the issue, however, there is a workaround.  If you disable Desktop Composition screen sharing will work.
    Control Panel -> Performance and Information Tools -> Adjust Visual Effects -> Uncheck “Enable desktop composition

  • Data filter in Excel 2013 disappears when Excel is reopened

    I recently upgraded from Office 2010 to Office 2013.  Unlike the previous versions of Excel, the data filter in Excel 2013 disappears.  Save the Excel with filters applied, close and reopen
    the file, filter is not retained.  Even the filter mark is not to be seen.  Not sure if its a bug,
    but there are other tiny such bugs were encountered in 2013 Excel.

    Hi,
    Based on my test, Data filter does not lost when we re-open the file in Excel 2013. Thus, I think it is not a bug. Thus, please provide us more information to assist you better.
    Did this issue occur with the previous file that created with Office 2010?
    Have you tried to re-create a new file to test?
    If this issue occur only with the previous file that created with Office 2010, this issue might be caused by the file compatibility, pleases use compatibility checker to update the files:
    https://support.office.com/en-ca/article/Check-file-compatibility-with-earlier-versions-d9856881-5875-4c58-915f-06859b2943a7
    If this issue occur with all files even with a new file, please try to repair Office 2013.

  • Excel 2013 crashes when trying to open existing worksheets from previous versions of Excel

    Hello
    I have windows 8 and Excel 2013 on my system. I need to access previously created worksheets (in older versions of Excel), however, when I attempt to open them the Excel crashes.
    The is not what I expected from getting the latest version. I telephoned Microsoft who advised that there was a compatabilty problem with no work around at this stage.
    I found that the only way round it was to use an (download free) alternative non-Microsoft program
    http://www.openoffice.org/ and copy into the 2013 Excel as a new worksheet. A little disappointing after purchasing the Excel .
    Have I got this wrong or is there a Microsoft solution to this issue???

    Hi,
    Try the following steps:
    Open Excel 2013, and go to
    File –> Options –> Trust Center.
    Under
    Trust Center settings, select Protected View and
    uncheck all options under it.
    Restart the Excel 2013 to check the issue.

  • Acrobat hangs when sharing via email. Why?

    I just installed the entire CC suite, including Acrobat 11 (or XI for you 1st century Romans out there). I was somewhat puzzled to see that when I select share by email the PDF still hangs with the spinning beach ball as it has for the two previous versions if not more. Is this a problem with Acrobat, MS Outlook or my particular set-up? It's hard to believe it would be with Acrobat because it has been a problem for at least the last three versions.
    Thanks for any help,
    Mike

    So I'm the only person having this problem or am I the only person sending PDFs via email?
