Excel 2013 Upgrade PowerPivot - Excel ran out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas. As a result...

Hello community,
I have an Excel Model that that i have been using fine on Excel 2010 64bit. It uses relatively large amounts of data from different sources via
PowerPivot.(Circa 25 different tables, with different sql queries and results totalling around 800K rows at a time)
The main excel sheet then uses cubevalue functions and measures to retrieve this data.
I upgraded to Excel 2013 32Bit yesterday. On opening the powerpivot within the sheet, i am required to update the powerpivot version, which i do. After updating , i refresh the Powerpivot tables, and return to the main sheet.
The cubevalue functions do return all of their required values, but other formulas in the sheet do not work. Excel gives me the error "Excel rand out of resources while attempting to calculate one or more formulas. As a result, these formulas
cannot be evaluated"
The PC is running a 64bitOS with 16GB ram, windows 7, so i don't think actual memory is the issue.
My second guess was the downgrade from 64bit to 32bit, however a colleague of mine is running a similar PC but with Excel 2010 32bit. The Excel Model works fine on his PC.
I am now lost as to what is wrong. Excel does not even explicitly tell me which formula is causing the issue.
Could it be that the 2013 Excel in general just uses significantly more memory, such that my excel file now cannot run in a 32bit Excel?
Any ideas or help on this would be much appreciated.

There do seem to be things in Excel 2013 that use more memory than Excel 2010 (Excel tables for example).
If you are using PowerPivot then most people recommend 64-bit Excel

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.
Hope it's helpful.
Thanks

Excel 2013 - Cannot complete this task with available resources

We were getting this error message when we first updated to Excel 2010. A user would select all of the cells in a workbook, try to do something with them (sort, copy/paste, etc), and Excel would crash or give the above error message about available resources.
I quickly found and applied a hotfix that addressed the issue, and that was that.
Now we're having the same issue in Excel 2013 (specifically, Office 365 ProPlus click-to-run installation). Only this time, there are not hotfixes available (because it is click-to-run?) and I'm not sure where to go from here. I have a user who is selecting
all of the cells in a workbook choosing the option to "Merge and Center", and Excel either freezes at that point or gives the above error message. This is a task he has done daily with these particular workbooks for the last several years without
issue, that is until moving to Excel 2013.
Excel was crashing on him regularly after updating to 2013 version, so I replaced his machine with a brand new one and brand new Office installation. He has plenty of memory (machine has 6GB of RAM) and the workbook is not particularly large (a few hundred
rows and few dozen columns). I do notice that when the error occurs, the memory in use by excel immediately balloons from 80MB to 1.5GB. However the machine is still using less than 50% of its available 6GB at that point.
I've disabled all add-ins, made sure we're on the latest Excel build (15.0.4517.1005). Not sure what else I can do. Any thoughts?

Hi,
Does it happen with a particular file or with all the files?
Is this a shared file? If yes, have you set any password?
Create a new file and check if it works. If it helps, then copy the contents of the file to a new file and check if it helps.
Also, here's a similar case for you to refer:

Ran Out of Storage While Editing

I am about 2/3 through editing a large file that is about an hour long in the timeline. I know this is a large file, but so far, Final Cut Pro X has been able to handle it without acting too sluggish. However, I'm about 2/3 through with the project now and I ran out of room on my 1TB external drive where all of the media was stored. At import, I selected "create optimized media" for all of the clips.
I am wondering, at this point, how can I reduce the amount of storage this project is taking up so I can continue working on it off of my external drive? Right now, the Final Cut Pro library file in the drive is at 870GB, and FCP will not continue unless I free up storage. When research this issue, I saw that creating proxy media can help but was unsure about doing this so far into the project, and not completely sure, if at this point, it would actually free up space since I didn't do this at import...
Any tips or input would be appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks Russ. I have ordered up a larger drive and suspected that was part of the issue. But since this is my first large project of this size, I thought there may also be a way to be more efficient with the amount of space the project takes up. 870GB seems very large, even for an hour long HD video. So my focus, in addition to getting more storage available, is also on how to be as efficient as possible with the file size, which is why I am trying to see if there are ways I may not have realized (since I'm very new to this) of decreasing the file size while still maintaing the quality of the final output.
It seems as though using proxy files may be an answer but just now want to make sure the conversion to that doesn't have a negative effect on my current work in progress. Any input is appreciated.

My Macbook Pro 2014 ran out of battery while mid-slideshow. Now the slideshow won't skip through photos and I can't figure out why? Macbook Pro 2014 13-inch Intel i5 8GB RAM 128GB flash, iPhoto library is on external HDD

Macbook Pro 2014
13-inch
Intel i5
8GB RAM
128GB flash SSD,
Integrated Graphics
iPhoto library is on external HDD
I was in a slideshow, with around 1,911 photos in it. About halfway through, my Macbook ran out of battery. Now when I restarted and charged the Macbook and reopened iPhoto, the slideshow won't advance through photos, and I can't figure out any reason why it would do this.
I thought it may be corrupted, so I deleted and reinstalled iPhoto library, iPhoto itself, and disconnected and reconnected my external HDD.
This didn't work, the photos still won't advance.
I don't know any reason why this would be happening, and there is ample space on my internal drive.
I'm happy to provide more information if needed!
Many Thanks,
James

Make a few tests, James, to narrow down the problem and find out, if the slideshow is corrupted, your iPhoto Library, or settings in your account.
To test, if only your slideshow has a problem, create a new slideshow, just for testing. Just use "File > New Slideshow" and add a few photos. Does this slideshow play correctly?
If the test slideshow does not play either, create a new iPhoto Library. Use the File menu in iPhoto: File > Switch to library > Create New. Import a few photos and create a slideshow. Does it play?
If even a new library does not solve the problem, test in a different user account (see this document: Isolating an issue by using another user account - Apple Support):
This process involves creating a new user account, logging in to it, and testing for the issue.
Create a new standard or admin user account in Users & Groups preferences.
Use these instructions for OS X Mavericks.
See these instructions for OS X Mountain Lion.
See this video, or these instructions for OS X Lion.
Optional: If you have any specific files you wish to test with, copy (don't move) those items to the /Users/Shared folder in the Finder.
Log out of your current user account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
Log in with the new account you created.
Attempt to reproduce the issue you were seeing in your regular user account.
After you have completed testing, log out of the test account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
Log in as your regular account.
After you have completed all testing with the test user account, you may want to delete it. You can delete an account in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.
Note: Prior to deleting a test account, make sure you are completely done with it. If you have files in the Guest User you wish to keep, you should copy them to the /Users/Shared folder .
If you should find, that slideshows only play in a new user account, post back.

Excel 2013 Error - Microsoft Excel has stopped working.

Just downloaded and installed Office 2013 to my new Windows 8 machine. Every time I try to use one of the Office products I receive the following message:
Microsoft has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
Please advise. Thanks.

Hope my experience helps anyone searching for answers to Excel /Word /Office freezing issues.
I have just fixed frozen Excel & Word applications in Office 2010. This happened
some 6 years ago and as my memory gets a bit more rusty every year, it took me sometime
to remember. First instance was with MS XP and Office 2000 - yes, old like me.
Both instances were with my wife's machine, so you can understand the
situation. I spent into the early hours search forums like this and trying all
sorts of fixes that are listed. In the end, the fix that fixed the problem was
to renew the user profile. That is, register anew user, then transfer all of
the files from the corrupted user profile to the new profile. Not an easy job,
but doable for most of us who are technologically challenged.<o:p></o:p>
If anyone wants to try this, then just remember that there three types of files
that are not copied over. The following site gives the process.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-NZ/windows-vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
Remember that Favorites, email messages and contacts also need to be copied over.
This fix may not necessarily be the solution for everyone's issues with Office applications
freezing, but it fixed mine.
I'm now a hero again in my household :)
P.S. I am still using Office 2000 and it's a great suite of programs. Should still be working after I'm long gone.

HT1689 ran out of space while trying to ask question! ipad synced, new ios update 10 hour installed, itunes apparently stopped working, ipad mini requires connecting to itunes. ipad detectecte recovery mode, RESTORE. Restore what? Whole bloody thing?

I just synced the iPad Mini. then installed ios7.04. After 10 hour installation found that iTunes was frozen, and ipad required to be connected to itunes!restarted computer, reconnected ipad Mini. Now "ipad detected in recovery mode, restore" Click on "OK" and the only usable default left is reset factory settings. Does that mean i have to go through the whole rigmarole again?

Unfortunately yes it does. You might want to temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and that may speed up the process. However, you have to restore the iPad again, if it is in recovery mode.

I ran out of power while partitioning, now 300GB of space is "missing"

Okay, so I was attempting to increase my windows partition by creating an image, reformatting, then moving the image back into the partition.
However, whilst trying to remove and recreate the partition, my battery died, and it stopped with the progress bar of creating my new 300GB partition somewhere in the middle.
Now, I've rebooted, and 300GB of space is missing from my hard drive, could someone please help me get this back?
Thanks muchly!

Hi,
normally the best way to remove a BootCamp Windows partition is to use the BootCamp Assistant again which should give you the option to remove the made Windows partition and revert back to one OSX volume.
After that's done a reboot of your Mac might be advisable. After the reboot you can use the BootCamp Assistant again to make a new Windows partition and then install Windows again.
Only if that's not working (whatever the reason) :
1) boot your Mac from your OSX install DVD
2) choose your language and then 'ignore' (cancel) the installation
3) from the Top Menu (Utilities) start Disk Utility (DU)
4) in DU click on your harddisk (not any partition) in the left pane (the first item listed)
5) in the right pane use the 'Partition'-Tab
6) click to highlight on the ex-Windows partition you want to delete
7) click on the small '-' Button at the bottom
That should delete your former Windows partition
After that's done successfully
8) Drag the partition separator line until it encompasses the entire drive and then select apply.
9) Quit Disk Utility
10) reboot your Mac from your harddisk.
Most likely you only have one partition showing, your OSX one, since the partitioning itself went wrong.
So some steps can therefor be skipped.
Since you are 'fumbling' with your OSX partition you should consider having/making a backup of it before trying the a.m. procedure. Just in case.

PowerPivot Excel 2013 crashes after column rename in source datatabase

Hello,
Using Windows 8.1, Excel 2013 64Bits, PowerPivot Add-In :
Not using a SQL Server TabularModel just a local Excel Model.
Having 32MB Ram memory.
Readed a table from a SQL Source that contains 13.000.000 records. After loading I discoverd that in the Source one of the columnn names is incorrect. It's name ExecudingProvider and should be ExecutingProvider, so I changed the SQL Server source table and
added the "t" to ExecutingProvider...
Back in PowerPivot I do go to the PowerPivot Data model > Design > Table Properties (not sure of translation using dutch edition but you should be able to find it)
It mentions that it is missing the ExecudingProvider. It;s indeed gone from the Columns that are listed, in place I do see the ExecutingProvider column which is not selected, clicked the checkbox to select the new column name. When clicking Save PowerPivot
starts loading. On reach of 13.000.000 records PowerPivot crashes saying an error has occurred, no real specification on what error and restarts excel automatically.
My work arround for know is to remove the table from the model and add it again, causing to recreate all relation ships. This should not be the case I think.
Do other have this same problem and did you figure out what is going wrong?
Regards,
Arjan

Help, PowerPivot in Excel 2013 is missing

hi
I recently change excel 2013 preview to excel profesional 2013 but PowerPivot is missing, what do I have to do, It`s not in the COM add-ins list, I tried too many ways, somebody can help me.

Check this out - :(
http://www.powerpivotpro.com/2013/02/hey-who-moved-my-powerpivot-2013-cheese/
Update
Find below the excerpt from MSFT employee
"Hi all,
We understand that this puts those of you who have less than ProPlus in a bad position where your previous Excel 2010 workbooks are concerned. You can't use them in Excel 2013 without updating the data model, and you can't update the data model without the
add-in. If you know someone with ProPlus or an Enterprise SKU, you can always ask them to update the workbook and save it in 2013. From there, you should be able to use it.
For basic PowerPivot functionality, you don't need the add-in. So you can also recreate your PivotTables in Excel 2013 using the new data model. The key is to select "Add this data to the data model" when you create the pivottable from one of your
data sources. Then you can import other tables, and use the "All" tab on the field list to add the other information. On either the Data tab or the PivotTable tools Analyze tab, you can create the relationships you need.
Hope this helps!
Anita"

PowerPivot Excel 2013 Calculted Fields using Usersname

Hello,
I'm using Excel 2013 with PowerPivot. I have one
table containing a column with the sales person (verkoper) please see the
screenshot for more details. I'm looking for a way to add a calculated
column, the value should depend on the user that is logged in.<o:p></o:p>
In Tsql it's pretty easy using something like “case
when verkoper = current_user then verkoper else 'other' end”<o:p></o:p>
Is there a way to do this in Excel PowerPivot. Help
would be greatly appreciated, I’ve been looking for an answer for some time
now. I guess I’m looking at the wrong direction….??
Sorry.. not able to insert the picture yet

Hey Wouter,
as the Power Pivot Model is static to the point that you have to refresh the data to refresh the calculated columns I think this is not what you want to achieve.
Imagine I (User A) create a PowerPivot, create a calculated column which represents what you want to see. I then share this file with you (User B). As soon as you open the PowerPivot Model you will see "my" results. You would have to refresh the data to
achieve the result depending on User B.
Even if it would work I doubt it would meet your expectation.
As Olaf just said, the only way would be to work it as a measure.
I hope I was of some help!
Kind regards, please mark helpful posts! :)
