Excel Calulates twice when set to Automatic in Office 2013

I have had a group of users who have raised an issue with Office 2013 running far slower for a number of spreadsheets. After investigating the fault, I have identified the issue as being due to the way in which Excel appears to be handling the calculations.
When I open the spreadsheet myself, on Office 2013 32 or 64 bit, I am asked to update the data, at which point the spreadsheet runs the calculations if I accept, and then runs them again. If I set this behaviour to manual, I can open the spreadsheet, request
an update, and then manually calculate, which only takes one pass at the data but provides the same results. The behaviour does not persist on an Excel 2010 machine, which does only a single pass on both manual and automatic. The spreadsheet does pull data
from an external sheet, but as this only occurs in Office 2013, I don't believe this to be intended behaviour.
Is there anyone who can shed some insight into why this acts this way, and how to prevent this. We are trying to upgrade our business to 2013, and are getting a huge amount of push back from this particular set of users over this issue

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to calculate once time when the file opening or update data.
I suggest you can make the file always calculate manual.
You may try to do following steps:
Click File>Options>Formulas> Calculate Options> Manual
Then you can save it .
For more detail information, please refer to the following link:

The article applies to Excel 2007, but we can refer to it.

  • IPod continuously flashes "Do not Disconnect" even when set to automatic.

    iPod continuously flashes "Do not Disconnect" even though iTunes says "Update is Complete" and even when set to automatic update. It mounts both in iTunes and on the Desktop.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    I have alredy tried rebooting both the iPod and computer.
    Thanks.

    Patrick,
    Welcome to the discussions.
    Sounds like you've got Disk Use enabled. Try unchecking the Box "Enable Disk Use" under iTunes>Preferences>iPod Tab.

  • When set to "Automatic", when does .Mac sync?

    I have a network of Macs and am syncing iCal. All are running OS 10.4.9. Syncing works properly when I do it manually from the machines. But I need to sync automatically. But, often those Macs that are set to sync using .Mac using the "automatic" option can go for days without actually syncing. Does anyone know what the triggers are for automatic syncing? I would assume that, anytime new data is entered a sync would soon occur. Also I would assume there would be an automatic sync to get new data 'once-in-awhile'. But I don't know what the 'rules' are and when I can actually expect a sync to occur for Macs set to automatic. Anyone know? And why does the sync occasionally not Kick in? Thanks in advance!

    Julian's right: the .Mac Sync forum is the place to ask, as iSync no longer has anything to do with synchronization to and through .Mac.
    The short answer—and, because of the complexity of the synchronization framework, this is a difficult question to simply and accurately answer—is that Automatically is construed to mean '…whenever changes occur, and in any event, no less than once each hour.' This gets complicated when multiple clients are involved, and when other clients—like .Mac Sync—get 'invited to the party' when you initiate a synchronization event with your mobile handset through iSync.
    This document explains more than you probably ever wanted to know, and most of what is publicly available in a single source, about the synchronization framework under Mac OS X 10.4 and later:

  • IPhone fails to locate a carrier when set to automatic ?

    My iPhone 5 fails to find a carrier when set to Auto?  If I reset it to 'manual' search, it will locate all available carriers. Why is the phones 'auto function' not working since the last iOS update?

    Try:
    Turn on airplane mode for thirty seconds, turn it off again, and then see if the iPhone automatically selects the optimal network.

  • How do I know which Location is being used when set to Automatic

    I have two Locations set up called Home and Music Room. I've selected Automatic in Network Prefernces so my Mac picks the appropriate one.
    Home location - Wi-Fi (1st in the Service order), Ethernet (2nd in the Service order although I'll only be using Wi-Fi with this location)
    Music Room location - Ethernet (1st in the Service order), Wi-Fi (2nd in the Service order)
    So right now, for example, I'm in my music room so I want it to be using the Music Room location and Ethernet but I don't know what it's actually using. In Network preferences, Automatic is shown as the Location, Wi-Fi is at the top, and both Wi-Fi and Ethernet say 'Connected'. If I click on Ethernet to see the details, it does say in the Status area, "Ethernet is currently active and has the IP address 192.168.1.74" so does this mean Ethernet is the one being used?
    Thanks.

    There is no need to have 2 personal keychains. To make your life simpler combine them.
    the login keychain is standard so it is best to keep that. Open the keychain access application, select your named keychain click on any of the keychain entries in the main window then press command +a to select them all then drag them onto your login keychain. You will be prompted to enter the password for your named keychain.
    Then when you have successfully moved them to your login keychain make sure that is set as the default keychain and then you can delete the other keychain. Please not do not delete any of the system keychains.

  • S4 Chooses incorrect time zone when set to automatic

    My S4, and my son's, are choosing the incorrect time zone when the phones are set to choose automatically.
    The phones were working and my son noticed his was off earlier in the week and mine seems to have developed the same issue sometime last evening.
    They are both choosing Central Time and should be choosing Mountain Time.
    Location services are enabled on both (GPS & Verizon as well as Google Wi-Fi)
    I've launched my phone in Safe Mode and the issue still occurs
    On my son's we chose to set time zone manually which works, but it reset itself to automatic later and returned to being incorrect.
    Thanks for any help.

    On my phone I believe it was the day I posted here (April 14th) on his a couple days prior to that.
    Both had 'fixed' themselves until his changed back a couple days ago
    No new apps, latest update applied to both phones (after his was already showing incorrect time).
    Also of note, 3 other S4's in the household that do not have the issue(...yet?)
    As mine is currently working I don't suppose there's a need for me to run in safe mode, but I will pass the instructions on to him

  • Why is the time wrong when setting itself automatically under Lion

    My Date and Time preferences are set to ‘set date and time automatically’ and the zone is set to Europe (where I live).
    However, since updating to Lion 10.7.1 (via the App Store), the time is showing as 8 hours early (ie USA time. What is the cause for this and are there any fixes?
    Thanks?

    That is what makes the time go wrong. I can only ‘fix’ it by setting it to manual and adjusting it myself. Every time I set it to ‘automatic’ it sets itself not to European times (as selected) but to 8 hours earlier....

  • When set to automatically start in-private browsing my browser now remebers everything no matter how many times I reset it - happened after upgrade.

    I'm unaware of this type of option. Unfortunately you are going to have to keep doing it manually.

  • When trying to set up automatic  syncing , on my iPod Nano, I get a notice that I am synced to another unknown computer.  How do I get unsynced from this other computer ? Have I been hacked ?

    When trying to set up automatic  syncing , on my iPod Nano, I get a notice that I am synced to another unknown computer.  How do I get unsynced from this other computer ? Have I been hacked ?

    Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting.  A phone can only sync with one library at a time.  You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced.  To know which you will have to provide the information.
    If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

    For some reason, iOS 6 has decided to download on my iPod Touch through WiFi. I didn't request it, nothing is set to automatically update in the Touch settings, or iTunes. It seemed to start downloading when I  synced the Touch. I've disconnected the Touch from WiFi temporarily. How can I cancel the download, or will there be an option when it's done downloading to cancel the install?

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • Set TECO automatically when assembly scrap is used

    Hi Experts,
    could any of You help me pls with a mass processing of TECO status, when using assembly scrap at material master?
    In my scenario we use COHV / PPIO_ENTRY as a background job for mass process and set TECO each night - worked well till no assembly scrap was set and used.
    When assembly scrap is maintained at material master, we have a total order qty, a planned scrap and the output qty in prd order.
    When cnf is made for prd order, and reached the planned output qty I expected the same as before: automatic TECO set  - but it is not. The system still expect the total order qty to be reached - but we only go for the output qty. So when  cnf qty = to output the status should be set - if scrap is lower than the planned scrap figures the order is not technically closed by the PPIO_ENTRY backgroung job.
    Anyone pls support me with an idea, how to handle this situation, and set TECO automatically when cnf qty equals to expected output, pls?
    Answers will be appreciated

    dear friend,
    can you please look at checkbox "Generated Confirmations w/o Quantity Adjustments" in OPK4 for your plant/order type?
    do you have it 'ON' ?
    regards,
