How do I disable Check out dialog when opening Documents from SharePoint 2010

Hi
When I open a pdf document form a SharePoint Server 2010 in the client application (Adobe Reader X) I'm always promted to check out the document to be able to edit it. However in most cases I just want to view the document and the promt is a hinderance for most of the users. I can think of two possible solutions but I can get either of them done:
1. Disable the check out promt in Acrobad Reader
2. Make sure documents are always opened in the Browser (not in client application)
We configured everything right form the SharePoint point of view. What do I need to configure to achive either of the above things in Acrobat Reader?

I'm still looking for an answer to this post. Any ideas?

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.

Disable prompt when opening document from intranet

I am developing a new company intranet using Sharepoint Services 3.0 on Windows Server 2003 Standard SP2.
On my intranet I have a series of links pointing to documents in a library.
My problem is that for every MS Office file I open I get a prompt box from IE asking '"What do you want to do with this file - open, Save, Save As". This is going to drive our users mad.
What I want to do is turn-off this prompt so that when the user clicks the link it just opens the file.
I can understand why this prompt would occur when accessing an 'outside' website but it's an unnecessary hurdle on an internal only intranet.
I am using IE9 on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit but the only 'solutions' I can find anywhere on the web all refer to previous versions of IE & Windows; none of them seem to work with the IE9/Win7 combination. I should also point out I get a similar
scenario with the Avant browser, but IE is our company default installation.
Is there anything in Sharepoint Services that I'm missing that governs how documents etc. are opened from a link in a sharepoint site?

Yes, it's in the Local Intranet zone.
It would seem there is an option for this in Sharepoint, called Browser File Handling, but it only exists in Sharepoint 2010, it's not available in Sharepoint Servicves 3.0 which is why I couldn't find it.
I have now found a couple of workarounds but they are not ideal as they involve editing the Windows registry, and I don't really want to do that on every users computer, but just in case anyone else wants to know here they are.
Create registry key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\AttachmentExecute\{0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
Create REG_BINARY values in this key for each product required eg. Excel.Sheet.8, PowerPoint.Show.8, Word.Document.8
Alternatively in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT set the EditFlags value for each product required to 00 00 01 00.
As always, recommendation is to back up the registry before changes and don't attempt the above if you're not confident with registry editing.
If anybody knows of a simpler way to always open files from a Sharepoint site without prompting then I'd still like to know.

Save As Dialog Not Showing when opening pdf from Outlook 2010

Hi
I have recently had to change the default documents folder on a windows 7 machine (Right Click Documents, properties, include folder, set save location). Since this change, when opening an attached pdf document in outlook 2010 and viewing with adobe reader, if i click Save as from the file menu, no os dialog appears and therefore user cannot choose a place to save the document.
As a work around the user can right click the attachment save the docment to a location, once opened, ther save as dialog is usable.
I have uninstalled and re-installed reader to the laterst version, but with no luck.
Any ideas?
Jason Congerton

This looks like a new behavior of Outlook 2010 and isn't specific to PDFs. You will need to "save as" the document. There is a thread at Microsoft forums about this with some possible workarounds:

Login prompt appearing when opening Excel Files - SharePoint 2010 SP1 - Office 2007

hi,
i have 2 sites on the same server, 1 at Port 80 and 1 at port 8300
https://contoso.com
https://contoso.com:8300
Both are under same AD and credentials.
But when users on 8300 port site, tries to open office files such as Word or Excel.
In read only mode, login credentials screen comes atleast 3 times again and again, although users are using same and correct credentials
but when clicked as edit mode, then file just opens.
I have saves their credentials locally using credentials vault under user accounts.
while suggestions on this page were already there:
http://sharepoint.licomputersource.com/2011/04/sharepoint-2010-prompts-for-credentials-when-opening-office-documents/
I have added https under Excel trusted File Locations under CA
I have correct AAM mapping under CA.
Please guide how to fix this. Thank you
Server: Sharepoint 2010 SP1
End Users: Office 2007 and Office 2010

Hi,
For Login prompt appearing, please refer to:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943280. also, please make sure you have already add this site into trusted sites zone in IE since after this settings, you will not get the read only/edit popup windows. you can change different computers to test
to check if the office settings has some special. in addition, please keep one version of office product.
For he excel files open in browser and then have a option to open in Excel, please go to library settings > advanced settings > Opening Documents in the Browser to check if both sites have the same settings. also, maybe you miss click the open in word/
open in excel button after open in brwser.

Word, PowerPoint and Excel Crash when opening Files from Sharepoint Site.

Hello,
I am in the process of rolling out office 2013 company wide. I have started with a batch of test users and a few including myself are reporting various office apps crashing with opening files from our SharePoint site. Although at times it will crash outside
of the site.
I have tired running each app in various modes (Safe-mode, Compatibility mode ect) but the same results keep happening. Although it does not happen all the time on other users machines its more frequent. If i download the file and open it locally this does
not appear to happen.
We are all running Office 2013 SP1 32bit on Windows 7 Machines.
One Common issue they everybody seems to have always points to "Faulting module path: C:\Windows\system32\VBScript.dll". I have done some digging but have not encountered any solution that points to this file. We constantly stay current on the
latest updates from MS.
Any suggestions would be very helpful.

How to get specific folder and items in the document library sharepoint 2010

I have a Shared library and it has Test folder and inside so many documents now i need to display the Test folder and items programmatically.
Appreciate Help!!!!!
Blitz

This is how you could do it using the server object model -
SPWeb site = SPContext.Current.Web;
SPList list = site.Lists["listname"];
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
SPFolder folder = list.RootFolder.SubFolders["FolderName"];
query.Folder = folder;
SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(query);
foreach (SPListItem item in items)
//do whatever you want here

Why no Read Only / Edit prompt when opening document from a hyperlink (link)?

I have a page that I've added hyperlinks to that point to documents in a document library.
If I click on a link to an Excel file, it doesn't give me the Read Only / Edit option. Instead, I get Open/Save/Cancel, and if I open it, I can't save it to the doc library, because it's
opened as Read Only.
On the same page, I have a link to a Word file to the SAME doc library. I still only get Open/Save/Cancel, but I can save - and it can overwrite the existing file on SharePoint. This is not ideal, but works.
What I'd like is to be able to link to a document from anywhere and have it open the Read Only / Edit prompt.
I've read elsewhere that this is a client issue, but I can't find the resolution.

Hi Ben,
Try this:
Quit all Office programs that are running.
Click
Start, click
Run, type regedit in the
Open box, and then click
OK.
Locate and then right-click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\<version_number>\Common\Internet
Note In this subkey, <version_number> corresponds to 10-15 for the specific Office version that is installed.
Point to
New, and then click
DWORD Value.
Type OpenDocumentsReadWriteWhileBrowsing, and then press ENTER.
Right-click
OpenDocumentsReadWriteWhileBrowsing, and then click
Modify.
In the
Value data box, type 1, and then click
OK.
On the
File menu, click
Exit to quit Registry Editor.
It will force to open all office files from Internet in Edit mode

Force a window browser window close when open docs FROM THE KD

We have an issue when opening documents from the kd a browser window opens, then the office doc opens. But it leaves the blank browser window there open. I have looked into it, and it appears the ptcommonOpener may be able to be modified with a piece of javascript "currentWin.close" in the href that gets built with the link.
Does anyone have any experience with this or another way to do it.
Thanks

the problem has been solved for me following the process :
1 -close entourage
2 - start and follow the complete reconstruction of the entourage database ;
3 - in the "entourage" menu, disable "office reminds" or "office recall" (i don't know the exact name because my entourage is in french)
For me it has worked. when i click on the dock entourage shortcut it opens without showing the new message windows at start.

I've had the same issue bugging me since installing Snow, er, lion, er, cat, er, cougar, er, Mountain Lion. Incredibly ANNOYING.
It's stupid stuff like this and reverse scrolling that really turn long-timer users off. I'm personally glad Forstall got fired for blunders such as these.
I'm serious peeved that turning off iCloud Documents & Data actually deletes documents and data locally. That's just incredibly stupid.
MANY thanks mende1 for the answer on how to fix it.

RSC says I have files checked out, but when I try to check them in it says they're not checked out

We are using RSC 3 to control RH7 projects. At the moment RSC says I have hundres of files checked out, but when I try to check them in it says they're not checked out. And then it says "No files were found to CheckIn." What could be causing this?
I tried refreshing and rebooting my (client) PC, and it didn't help.
Thanks.

I am no pro at this product but when you look in source control, who does it say has those files checked out. Does that user match the credentials that you use to connect to source control. The only reason I ask this is, when I first set this up for my Publishers, I used the default admin account to connect to RSC. Then I created accounts for them and went to their workstations to change credentials. I changed the credentials but they had checked out some docs before that and could not check them back in because they were still checked out as admin. Had to change it back, have them check projects back in and then switch credentials. Hope this helps.

How can I solve the -50 error when downloading video from itunes. The apple support people cannot even figure it out!??

The 2330 error often means some sort of damage to the filing system as might happen if the battery fell out while the disk was in use.
Try running a disk check to see if it finds and fixes any errors.
