Microsoft office access record-locking information

Hello,
Maybe is a stupid question but i didn't saw question similar to this and I'm concerned about my privacy. Yesterday when i logged in to my skype account I found out that in Users-App Data-Skype- there were created a small file called 'microsoft office access record-locking information'. I'm not exactly sure what this means, because it is happening for a first time. I'm not using Microsoft account for logging in into Skype, also I did not gave any access to another computers, especially to Skype folder.Also after logging off from Skype, this file is not automatically deleted. Can somebody explain me should I concern about something?

what my question is (and it must be ridiculasly simple but i cant find it) is how do i get to the page where i can make calls...where my contacts are and such...from the skype home page? i am in prague, using skype from here...am logged into my account but it is just all of my account info, history and such. there is no icon to make a call. i have clicked on everything to see where the option is to simply make a call and...nothing...
this happened before with my husband when he was using skype on windows 8 for the first time. this computer has windows xp so it ought to be straight forward...not so far.
thanks,

It’s still straight forward but not using your Account page on web. You need to install Skype application on your computer and login to this application with your account details.

Why is the Microsoft Office Access Database Engine data source looking for a workgroup information file?

While trying to import to MSSQL2012 from SSDT using the wizard from an Access 2013 DB (.accdb) which is password protected, I get the following error with the username blank and the password field correctly populated:
Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user. (MicrosoftOffice Access Database Engine)
But according to this link:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/access-help/what-happened-to-user-level-security-HA010342116.aspx
MSA10 and beyond shouldn't need workgroup information files, although it's not clear to me if they are
created/used or not.
I can point the wizard to some local version of system.mdw at Advanced -> All -> Jet OLEDB:System Database, and then the error becomes:
Not a valid account name or password. (Microsoft Office Access Database Engine)
for any username I can think of.
Questions:
1. Why does this data source insist on looking for a workgroup information file even though user-level security should be disabled?
2. Why does the Open dialog box for the Microsoft Access Database Engine have *.mdb as the only selectable filetype?
3. How can I get around these errors for an .accdb that is password protected?
Thanks!

Hi JordanPG,
To connect to Access 2007 or later database, we need the Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB driver. SQL Server only installs the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB driver which can be used to connect to Access 2003 or earlier database. Besides, the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB
driver only has 32-bit version, but the Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB driver has both 32-bit and 64-bit version. However, the 32-bit and 64-bit Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB drivers cannot be installed on a single server.
According to your description, you can use the 64-bit SQL Server Import and Export Wizard to load data from the Access database, so the 64-bit Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB driver is installed on your computer. Since the BIDS/SSDT is a 32-bit application, the
64-bit Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB Provider is not visible in BIDS/SSDT. So, when you said that you select “Microsoft Access (Microsoft Access Database Engine)" in the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard (it is actually the 32-bit version) started by the SSDT,
I think it should be “Microsoft Access (Microsoft Jet Database Engine)”. Because the Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB driver only supports Access 2003 or earlier format, it threw the error “Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. Unrecognized
database format 'C:\myDB.accdb'”.
In this situation, you have two approaches to avoid this issue:
Launch the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard (64-bit), and select “Save SSIS Package” to “File System” on the “Save and Run Package” page. Then, the package will be saved to a specified directory. After that, you can add this existing package to a SSIS
project. The status of the corresponding OLE DB Connection Manager should be Work Offline, or the OLE DB Source will throw an error about 32-bit driver if the Connection Manager is not in Work Offline status, you can ignore that and the package can run successfully
in SSDT as long as the project is set to run in 64-bit runtime mode.
However, for the SSDT 2012 integrated with Visual Studio 2012, the 64-bit runtime mode is disabled. In this situation, to run the package in SSDT, you have to uninstall the 64-bit Microsoft ACE 12.0 OLE DB drivers and install the 32-bit one. Here is the

Microsoft Office 2013 Free/Busy Information Issue

We have several users that cannot see the free/busy information of another user in their Outlook 2013 calendars. Creating a new Outlook profile for the user and repairing office solves the issue for a short period of time. Users are running Windows
8 64 bit, Windows 7 32bit and 64bit with Office 2013. Our Exchange server is 2010 version 14.03.0158.001. I have included screenshots of the issue.

I have been working with Microsoft on this issue. The patches below are suppose to fix this issue. We are still currently testing them.

MS Access Record-Locking files

Hi all,
I am having some serious issues with Lock files that won't go
away. I want to create a new project and then import boilerplate
topics into this new project. When I try to import the HTML files
from an existing project, RH goes through its little song and
dance, but then it craps out on me and crashes The imported HTML
files are in the file structure of my project, however, they are
not showing in the Topics List or Project Manager.
When I delete the lock file, I am able to import the files
one at a time from within the new project, however, once I close
the project and then reopen it, the lock file is there and I'm
hosed.
Any ideas? We have contacted Adobe/Macromedia support and no
one seems to know how to help us.
Thank you,
Linda

What do you mean by Lock File? What version of RH are you
using?
If X5, have you tried deleting the CPD and XPJ files?

Xoom and Microsoft Office products Access and Publisher

I need to know if the new Motorola Xoom will open a Microsoft Office Access database file and Microsoft Publisher document?

By open, do you simply require viewing (and if so viewing what exactly in access), or editing?
There's a better chance for viewing than opening, but I suspect neither will work. It will be later today before I can confirm.

Microsoft Office locks up while tethered

I tether my 8330 to my laptop through Verizon, and it works OK until I try to open a Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, etc.,) program while tethered which locks up the MS program. If I close the internet access/tether, the MS program instantly frees up, but then I can't re-tether without rebooting the computer.
Some months ago, I called VZ support and they had me reinstall the VZ Access Manager and it seemed to take care of the problem initially, but it came right back (the first time I was on the road - sort of figures)
Doe anyone know what I need to do to resolve this conflict?
Thanks

Open a finder window and right click on the Macintosh HD entry and select Get Info. That will show you the size of the drive and the amount of free space left.
Or you can do both tasks with Disk Utility. In the Applications folder open the Utilities folder and Disk Utility is in there. Once it opens select the Macintosh HD entry and the First Aid tab, if it isn't already selected. You'll find the Verify disk option in that tab.
Look at the bottom of the window and you will see the size of the drive and the free space. Capacity and Available items.

Is it possible to easily run Microsoft office 2010 with access on a MacBook pro or have I wasted my money ?

Okay , first off thanks for any help in advance . I just purchased a MacBook pro for my daughter for college . ( finance major ) . Her class requires Microsoft office 2010 with access . As you probably already know , and I have just learned , that is no offered for Mac. Is there an easy way To run ms office with access on a MacBook pro or have I wasted my money ?

All that matters is file compatibility. The documents look the same. I've been a professor, so I don't see any issues here at all.
Another option you may want to consider is this: Run Windows on the Mac:
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

Is it possible to Install the 64-bit Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 if we are running Microsoft Office 2010 32-bit?

So we are running Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, Version 14.0.7015.1000
(32-bit)
This is what is installed via our Network and Network licensing.
I am trying, in vain, to read and write a .xlsx file via a C# Edit Script in a SSIS Package. And I have tried using...
string StringConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + sourceFile + ";Extended Properties=\"Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1\"";
And this tells me that this has not been installed. So when I go and try and get the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 64-bit, which would allow me to use Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 and allow me to read, write, and process this .xlsx file, it tells me
I cannot install it because I already have 32-bit installed and it wants me to un-install Microsoft Office 2010. Why? Because it is 32-bit? And I can't do that because this is what we have and what we're licensed for and from what I've read seems to be the
industry standard because most software vendors are ill equipped to process 64-bit right now.
So my question is this...How can I use a C# Edit Script to read and process a .xlsx file? Because if I try using...
string StringConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + sourceFile + ";Extended Properties=\"Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1\"";
It then tells me that the file is not in that format.
Please excuse me for asking this question in a couple of different ways out here but I cannot for the life of me seem to be able to get an answer as to how I can process a .xlsx file with a C# script and which driver to use that will make this work.
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.
ITBobbyP85

Hi ITBobby85,
If the excel version in the Connection Manager is Microsoft Excel 2010 (.xlsx), we should use Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB provider.
We can't install 32bit and 64bit parts of office on the same machine. We will get an error as you said when we run the installer to install the 64bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable in the machine where a 32bit version
of Microsoft Office installed. To fix this issue, please download and install the 32bit version of the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable with the link below:

Can I access old Microsoft Office files on a Mac?

Am considering getting rid of my old PC and just using my Mac only, with Microsoft Office for Mac. Woud i be able to access my old MS Office files from my PC on my Mac or not?
Many thanks

To be clear:
Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 (2008 as well) don't include Access since Microsoft has never ported it to Mac OSX.
In this thread Re: microsft access database for mac? are some hints as to work with Access databases in Mac OSX.
