Menu bar disabled for a PowerPivot workbook after publishing on SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I've implemented a simple PowerPivot workbook on a SharePoint 2013 site but when I select it inside Internet Explorer 11 the menu bar seems disabled (f.e., I cannot select the data refresh for the Data tab). I can use the slicers and the filters successfully.
When I select the PowerPivot workbook inside Mozilla Firefox I can use the menu bar normally.
Any ideas to solve this issue? Does it depend on the used browser?
Thanks

did you try IE's compatibility mode?

Adobe premiere elements 12 - how to create menu bar action for my inserted image button

adobe premiere elements 12 - how to create menu bar action for my inserted image button without using their movie menu theme

forbemag
I do not think that I am completely focused into this completely, so let us see if the following is going to help.
You are going to need a base for your button. When you mention "image" button, I am assuming that you are using that term to differentiate between a text button and a thumbnail type button.
The menus (main and scene) take their origin in .psd files on the hard drive and strict nomenclature and structure for Layers Palatte. And, the buttons on the menus trace back to the menu markers on the Timeline, main menu marker and order of placement of scene markers. The scene thumbnail will only appear when there is a scene marker on the Timeline to which it.
In view of all that
Where have you already inserted this "image (button)"...into the Layers Palette of a Photoshop document or other? Is this "image (button)" in a structured Layer Group in the Layers Palette with sublayer groups, text layers, graphic/background layer"?
Let me give you an example
If you have a button (with thumbnail) on the main menu and you want that to open to a specific scene in your movie, then you use a main menu marker on the Timeline at the spot that you want that button to target.
If I am getting closer to what you seek, then please further clarify the DVD navigational envisioned scheme.
Thanks.

Increased menu bar size for the vision impared

My mother needs a new computer, and I was thinking of getting her the 24" iMac. Her vision is failing, and I was wanting to increase the size of icons and menus to help her see them better.
I can't seem to find a way to increase the size of the menu bar or any of the application controls (she is a big MSOffice user).
I know I can decrease the screen resolution, but this looks terrible on an LCD screen. Also, the magnification feature is nice, but considering that a 24" screen is available, just enlarging everything leaves enough room to work.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, few will answer, and the answer would be a resounding "no".
I just went to a "Genius Bar" appointment and asked, because I basically had the same problem: I went to buy a 13" MacBook for my aunt and uncle - in their mid-70s - and I specifically asked about that issue, only to be told that I could indeed change the menu fonts and their sizes.
Turns out I can't and I now have two rather unhappy relatives who spent twice on their Mac laptop than they'd have on a PC crap one, but where the menus would have been fine for them to read after I'd made a few interface changes.
To add insult to injury, the "Genius" (and Lord, how those quotes are necessary!) came up with the solution to install Windows on the MacBook and run that instead. He's really lucky I did not have the 13" at hand otherwise I'd have force-fed the thing to him. I did NOT spend all that money, plus two days trying to find a solution, only to get that sort of crapola offered as an answer.
Anyhow.
From what I've surmised, Apple has not thought it useful enough to allow mere mortals to decide what's best for us and trust us with choosing fonts and sizes we like - or need.
I've been looking about, and so far only two (partial) solutions have come up:
1) Changing the scaling factor, a not-totally documented possibility that can be accessed after downloading OSX developers tools... See here: http://guides.macrumors.com/Changingthe_effective_screenresolution
I haven't tested this yet on my own PB, as my battery ran out while downloading but I will try it again later.
2) Doing the same thing, but through a shareware application called TinkerTool System (http://www.bresink.de/osx/TinkerToolSys.html) which allows you to change the pixel density factor. I downloaded the app (there's a free, fully-funtioning, 5-run download available) and it works as promised... as long as the applications you use are made to work with this "developer-only" feature of 10.5 - for instance, Firefox clearly isn't.
But still, I was impressed in that the menu bar items looked quite all right (the clock and other menu bar icons did not scale, and looked odd) and that, for the apps that did scale well (iTunes, Opera, Safari, Finder) the results were visually pleasing, and very legible.
I would suggest you download it and try it for free on your Mum's computer - a scale factor of 1.25 looked all right to me, but you can go higher I guess. Just make sure that while your factor is set, you open each and every application she's liable to use and see if they do scale well. If they do, TTS is about $10 and that would be money well spent. I am going to try it on my folks' MB and I hope that'll do the trick...
...until Apple decides that there is a good reason after all behind "Windoze"'s user-tweaked UI possibilities after all
Let me know if it worked for you and best,
Ludovic

Menu Bar Icons Disappeared and other issues after Security Update 2006-001

Hi,
I was really affraid when i've heard about the Safari vulnerability, so I was really happy to see the Security Update 2006-001.
But after installing it, I'm having regrets:
* mouse speed turned to default settings
* system preferences crashes when i try to access to Mouse & Keyboard
* all the menu bar icons disappeared: Bluetooth, Airport, Time, EVEN Spotlight
* Finder is slower...
I've repaired disk permissions but: nothing happens....
What should I do please?
Should I wait?

How did you fix it? I'm having the same problem
myself.
Mandy,
I'm gonna tell you a secret, just like i said my problem wasn't due to the Security Update but because of Front Row.
How? Because, I've hacked my iMac (without iSight) to install FrontRow (with an update), and i've installed the Security Update at the same time. Restarted my computer, and thought the problem was due to the Security Update.
If you did the same thing, here's the trick to remove Front Row:
Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
Install/reinstall the the latest Mac OS X Update Combo.
This article assumes you haven’t tried installing Front Row before without the use of Enabler. If you have used one of the very early versions of Front Row (ones installed without Enabler):
Delete Front Row (/System/Library/CoreServices/Front Row.app)
Delete the preference file (/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.frontrow.plist)
Remove any Login Items that launch Front Row (System Preferences >Accounts >User >Login Items)
Disable any shortcuts managed by third-party applications that launched Front Row.
Reboot and reinstall.

Flash menu bar's hyperlink doesn't work after imported into dreamweaver

I have major problems when I tried to import a flash menu bar with hyperlink (created in flash) into dreamweaver. I have 5 buttons in the same flash banner file and each button is supposed to have its unique hyperlink. None of these 5 hyperlinks is working, but it works fine if run by the .swf file alone. What could I have done wrong in flash or dreamweaver?

Please help....thank you in advance.
Kind regards,

Hi Hans-G,
Problem only exist on Windows 7 system, working fine in XP. Thanks for yr hep!

Menu bar meter for audiovox PC 5740

Hi,
I've recently started using an Audiovox PC 5740 wireless card for Verizon. The card has an LED flasher that indicates signal strength but it's imprecise. I can connect using Intenet Connect or VZAccess Manager. Both bring up a "time connected" timer in the menu bar, but neither have a menu bar icon or meter that indicates signal strength. VZAccess manager has a window with a meter for signal strength, but the window is cluttersome. Is there a utility or something that I can add to supply a meter for wireless strength to the menu bar?
Thanks, Caoim

Where have my menu bars gone for full screen apps?

Hello
Liking Lion so far but a quick query:
When I first started using it, I could make the menu bar appear in a full screen app by simply moving the cursor up to the top of the screen and holding it there - the menu bar would appear within a second.
Now, nothing happens. I have to either quit the application - or I've now found that CTRL/CMD/F pulls me out of the full screen - but then that puts the app back onto the main desktop.
Is there anything I might have done to alter this behaviour?
Thanks..

I think you are right and it's a bug.
I can't reproduce it on my system. You might want to
create a new User go to System Preferences > Accounts > "+" (make it an admin acct) and test full screen in this new account, to see if the problem is isolated to your User or systemwide.

Spry horizontal menu bar and accordion panels not working when published

Hi,
I'm a newbie to Dreamweaver and have been asked to design an intranet site. On the site, I added both Spry widgets for a horizontal menu bar and an accordion panel. Both of these widgets work in preview, however, neither work when I publish. I uploaded the Spry asset folder (with all the CSS and JS files) to the remote server, but still no luck. What am I missing?
Thanks.

Despite of what you have staed, my bet is on the fact that the SpryAssets folder and/or the included files are not being found by your page..
Open the site in FF, click on view Source and in the source code click the link to the JS file. If it can be found, it will show the content of the file and you will have the satisfaction of knowing that the page can find the file.
If it does not show the content, you need to correct that.
Good luck.

Can't change the master page after upgrading to SharePoint 2013.

After upgrading our farm to SharePoint 2013 we are having trouble changing the master page for sites that don't have sub-sites. We are still using the v4 UI version, and that appears to be what is causing the problem. The error we get when going to /_layouts/ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx
is:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Publishing.Internal.CodeBehind.AreaChromeSettingsPage.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive()
at System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint)
I took a peek at the source code for AreaChromeSettingsPage.OnLoad and found that it references a CheckBox control that does not exist in the v4 ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx:
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e)
base.OnLoad(e);
this.EnsureChildControls();
if (!this.Page.IsPostBack)
this.LoadValues();
if (base.Web.Webs.Count == 0)
this.resetSystemMasterPageSubSitesCheckBox.Visible = false;
this.resetSubSitesCheckBox.Visible = false;
this.resetAlternateCssSubSitesCheckBox.Visible = false;
this.resetThemeSubSitesCheckBox.Visible = false;
base.ConfigureCancelButton(this.BtnCancel);
If I manually add a checkbox control with the ID "resetThemeSubSitesCheckBox" to a hidden panel in the v4 copy of ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx the page works, but obviously this is not a best practice. How can we fix this without upgrading the UI version, which
we are not yet ready to do?

Thanks Mike - Could you please share what is your next step then? I also have custom master pages and layout but I am going to make new master page and layout in 2013 as we need to change the existing branding too. so, i upgrade the site collection. I understand
the Look and Feel will not persist after the upgrade but I am concern that at least the page should show the content on the page after the upgrade. The page had Calendar webppart on it but after the upgrade it is coming blank.
any suggestion?

Stop all parallel and series task after rejection in sharepoint 2013

How to stop all parallel and serial tasks to stop and terminate the workflow once an approver rejects a request at any hierarchy or any branch of parallel activities.
I am looking for SharePoint 2013 SPD workflow.

Hi Arun,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to stop all parallel or serial tasks and stop the workflow once an approver rejects a request.
I recommend to edit the Start a task process action in the workflow and set the Wait for task completion under Task Options:
If the workflow contains other steps under the Start a task process action and you want to stop the workflow after an approver rejects the task, then I recommend to add a condition to check if the Task outcome is approved under the Start a task process and
move all the other steps inside the action.
After that, only if the all the tasks are approved, the workflow will run the other steps, otherwise it will go to the end of the workflow.
Thanks,
Victoria

OneDrive for Business iPad App with on-premise SharePoint 2013

I don't know if this has more to do with OneDrive for Business or SharePoint 2013 itself.
Basically we are trying to log into OneDrive for Business on the iPad app but it says "Sorry, this app doesn't support this type of authentication"
We are using Claims Based Authentication with our On-premise SharePoint 2013 environment, which according to this table is a supported method: h**p://office.microsoft.com/en-us/office365-sharepoint-online-enterprise-help/use-the-onedrive-for-business-app-on-an-iphone-or-ipad-HA104005688.aspx#_Supported__authentication
We have tried different combinations of the username and url. Windows username, DOMAIN\username, email address, username@domain, etc. nothing seems to work.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

according to office blog, it does support SharePoint on prem with following authentication(NTLM & FBA)

How can I disable managed properties from being automatically generated in SharePoint 2013

In SharePoint 2010 we had the option to turn this off for a crawled property category.
How can we turn this function off in SharePoint 2013?

Thanks Steve! That sure was not obvious... check, save, uncheck save... how did you figure that one out?

Is there any option for voting on a list item in SharePoint 2013?

Dear All,
I am looking for a feature vote a for list item from multiple users and need to show consolidated results on that.
for SharePoint 2013 we have "like", "rating" by using these can we show the consolidated results.
otherwise is there any alternative for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Jithendar

I haven't seen any OOB vote feature in sharepoint list. It's better to go with "like" or "ratting" options.
