Installing Control Panel 2/3 causes problems in opening Excel sheets

After installing the control panel 3.0, I can't open Excel sheets properly anymore. A message says that the Excel sheet contains corrupted data and Excel can try to restore them. After confirming this, the excel sheet shows opened but all formating is gone.
I had this issue yet with Control Panel 2.0. After some research on the web I found out that the problem is caused by the CP for Windows. I then switched back to CP V 1.1.4 and the excel sheets opened properly again.
Thanks for any advise. I'm using Windows 7 and Excel/Outlook 2007.

The problem here is, you have setted the content type as excel sheet and you are writing some String content into the output stream. when excel tries to read the String content it will surely throw some error. Lot of excel APIs are available in the market to generate excel sheets.
you can find one in the below URL.

The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.

H,
Since upgrading Windows server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 Standard edition, we get this repetitious critical error in the event log:
Event 1001
Op Code NLS initialization
The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.
We originally found that the regional date settings after changing them in regional settings (DD/MM/YYYY) and they did not inherit properly from the upgrade but they are ok now.
I've looked at HKCU\.Default\Control Panel\International and nothing looks obviously wrong. Country codes, time & date formats are correct.
How do we ascertain the cause of this error and the specific registry key that might be problematic?

Hi,
This could be caused by firewall rules or security softwares.

And in addition, the fix is worth a try.

Windows will scale applications display or windows will not scale application display depending on how the application is coded. Photoshop is coded in a way that its display is not scaled by windows. Photoshop knows about your displays high pixel count not its resolution so it uses its pixels however it does not scale its UI to make it usable on your display. Other application let Windows scale their display output.   For example Microsoft default for is Surface Pro 3, 216 ppi display is to scale applications display up 150% so the surface pro 3 display which has 2160x1440 pixels a 216 ppi resolution look like at display with the user is using with 1440x960 pixels. The Application works like the display is 1440x960 and Windows scale those pixels to the displays using the displays 2160x1440 pixels the effectively changing it resolution to 144ppi rather than the actual 216ppi.
The reg update and external manifest file effectively tells photoshop its working on such a size display display some number of pixel wide and some number photoshop uses that as the display size in turn Windows scale those pixels to use the displays 2160x1440 pixels efector lowing its 216ppi resolution. Photoshop CC 2014 2X UI would be like using windows 200% option applications would be shown the are working on a display 1080x720 instead of the Surface Pro 3 2160x1440. Note that 1080x720 does not meet PS requirement of 1024x768. Photoshop UI would not fit on the Surface Pro 3 display..
Since you have a 4k display if you have CC 2014 you can use its 2x UI effectively Photoshop will be running on a 1920x1080 display and have half the resolution of you 4K display 3840x2160 pixels four native pixels are use as a single pixel.   1920x1080 pixels exceed PS requirement.

Winshuttle problem with new excel sheet

Hi ,
I am getting Winshuttle problem after the excel upgraded to latest version.
when i open the winshuttle from icon, i dont get any prompt/no information.
Any ideas fromo experts ?
Siva

We solved the problem by going into the performance settings and disabling the "fade" functionality in Windows. To get to the screen to make the changes in Windows, open the Control Panel and navigate to "System". Open "System" and click on the "Advanced Settings" tab. Next, click on the button marked "Settings" in the "Performance" area. In the "Visual Affects" tab, clear the checkbox for three "Fade... " options.
I tested this successfully, even for users who have no administrative rights on their computer.
Please try this solution and see what results you receive. The strange thing in our situation is that the OS image used for laptops does not suffer the problem with Bex and WinShuttle as does the OS image used for desktop computers.
BG, are you from the UK? I ask as I watch a few UK television programs, and I notice they use "sorted" in the same manner us Americans use "taken care of" or as us Southerners say "figured out".

HELP! Control Panel missing and booting problems

For some reason I cannot access the control panel where all the icons for networking, hardware and so and so on normally are to be found.
It is not present as an icon on the dock and does not appear when in the "apple" menu I click the german translated name of it"Systemeinstellungen". Am I forced to install again the whole Leopard !!! or is it htere a way to get the panel back?
I have also general problems. Often I am forced to start twice the Mac since it remains the first time in the booting process with the multicolour round wheel spinning endlessly.
Thanks in advance ;-))

Given your collection of problems reinstalling seems a good idea:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Need help installing Control panel for Creative Roar speaker!!!

I am trying to download the control panel to my Windows XP PC, or my Windows 8 laptop but when I download the try to install the control panel both my PC & laptop says, Setup unable to detect a supported product on your system. What does that mean?

hiawa23,
You need to press and hold the PLAY button to activate the sound card feature. You may refer to this article for more information.
You can also do the following if your PC is still unable to detect the speaker as a USB audio device:
1. Ensure you use the supplied USB cable. It is able to handle both power and data.
2. Power cycle the speaker (turn off and then turn it on)
3. Connect the speaker to another USB port and try again.
4. Do not use any USB hub; ensure the speakers is connected directly to your PC
5. Try to connect the speakers to another computer and then try again.
If the speaker is still not detected as a USB audio device, perform the following:
1. Hardware reset: In any state, press and hold the Power button for more than 10 seconds, and then press the Power button again to turn the speakers on.
2. Master reset: While the speaker is in pairing mode, press and hold the Multifunction and Volume down (-) button together until a voice prompt is heard that 'master reset' is completed.

Disable or not install control panel applet

I beleive since 10.3 the control panel applet has been installed by default. Is there a way to install flash but not the applet? or Install flash and have the options within it disabled?
I understand that the mms.cfg overides what is done within the applet but it does lead to some confusion with users when they set something and it doesnt work as we as Admins have disabled it in the MMS.cfg.

in FP 11, mms.cfg settings should be reflected in the UI of the Native Control Panel. unfortunately, there is a known bug that doesn't reflect admin changes. it is resolved in an upcoming release, Anza. please refer to: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=2995088
short story:
mms.cfg files saved as UTF-8 are not reflected in the Native Control Panel
work around:
save mms.cfg as ANSI
resolution:
issue will be resolved in the next flash player release, 11.1 Anza...

How can I uninstall firefox when the add/remove programs in control panel doesn't work, nor does opening it in the run command?

I tried to uninstall firefox using the control panel, add/remove programs. When I click on remove it does nothing. Then I tried using run, firefox, uninstall, helper and this does nothing either. Is there another way to remove it or repair it? I am using windows xp not 2000.

For details of how to manually remove Firefox see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox - it gives details of the folders you need to delete.
What is your problem with Firefox, re-installing Firefox does not normally fix problems.

Problems while displaying EXCEL sheets within OUTLOOK

Dear all,
I have the following problem:
a user within the company receives sometimes emails containing excel sheets. the user wants to use/work with the preview within outlook, unfortunately the displayed values are different compared with the values if the sheet is opened with excel.
Now I'd want to ask if you had such a problem and also found a solution for that?
Best regards and thanks in advance
Oli

Hi Oli,
Does this only happen to these specific spreadsheets or all? Are these fixed manually entered value? Or references to other sources?
The previewers in Microsoft Outlook provide additional security against potentially harmful code to help protect you from malicious code,
active content embedded in attachments (including scripts, macros, and ActiveX controls) is disabled during a preview.
Thus, a preview might not show the most up-to-date content in the file. To see the most complete, up-to-date content, you need open the file in related Microsoft Office application.

Possible cause of "Cannot open Excel file error"?

Hi!
Here's my problem: one of our LabView applications creates .xls Excel
files. However some of these files are too big to be opened into
Excel, so we need to open these files in DIAdem to analyse the data (in
fact, even the smaller ones often need to be analysed in DIAdem).
The problem is that DIAdem seems totally unable to open Excel files,
small or big, created by our LabView application or not. The
error message appearing when we try to import Excel files is "Cannot
open Excel file"... which doesn't give any clue about the cause of the
error. My question is: what may cause this error to
occur? I searched both the help and the website without finding
useful information.
The computer is running on WinXP with OfficeXP installed, and we are
using DIAdem 9.0. If additionnal information is required, just
let me know.
Thanks in advance!
Maxime B.

Hi!
I did some experiments this morning. First of all, the file I had
created using Excel that I tried to open yesterday just opened. I
don't know why it didn't work yesterday, but, for now, it's
working. Now, for my LabView-created files, I still get the same
error message. However, if I open the files in Excel and try to
save, a warning message appears, saying that the file may not be
compatible with the text (separator:tabulation) format. If I
ignore the warning and save the file as a .xls file, I can now import
it into DIAdem. The problem is probably that my LabView-created
files are not "real" .xls files. Now, this is a problem, because
I can't open some of the bigger files in Excel without having the data
truncated (Excel has a maximum of 65536 rows); last year, using DIAdem
8.X (I don't remember the exact version we had), I could open those
files without any trouble... Is there any way to get those files to be
opened with DIAdem 9.0? I attached one of those files if it may help.
Thanks!
Maxime B.

Problem with Protected Excel sheets through OLE

Hi Friends
We are facing the problem with the protected sheets in excel, when we are accessing worksheets via SAP.
We can insert the values in the protected sheet and we can do other manupalations, but when we are trying to do the autofit for the protected sheet via SAP, then its throwing an error while making it as Visible in SAP ECC 6.0.
Though it is valid, because even when we do in the excel itself, it wont allow the user to shrink the columns, but this one is possible in ECC 5.0 and we can make excel is visible on the screen.
I would like to know is this SAP Version problem or anything else apart from this? and I would like to know is there anyway to unprotect and protect the sheet through ABAP program with out a password. Now my clients wants the autofit though its protected.
Please give me any suggestions.
Thanks
Praveen

its bug with ECC 5.0. If we want to make it auto fit we need to unprotect, then auto fit.
Later we can protect again
