Microsoft Office saving problem

Running 10.6.4 server and client machines - AD and OD users saving to snow leopard server home directories. Can save a word or other office document initially, but on second revision we get an error message stating that the file is open or in use. It seems this has something to do with .TemporaryItems, but I need direction (explicit) on how to create those .TemporaryItems and make them work. Many thanks in advance.

If computers are bound to the AD (and the OD for MCX) AND you have setup true network home folders on a server (the default for an AD connection is user homefolder is local to the user computer /Users) when a user logs in and he/she is using the AD account credentials the AD UID ("long" row of numbers) is used.
If the user is supposed to save only to his/hers own homefolder UIDs shouldn't matter because that folder isn't shared with others, but having read/write permissions to the root of their homefolder (or really .Temporaryitems) does.
When you use network homes and no portable accounts (local copy of network homefolder can sync with network home) when you save to for example the Desktop or Documents folders, you are already on the server so no need to do anything else.
On shared volumes UIDs and having read/write permissions to the .Temporaryitems folders on shared volume matters.
It is possible to have only the server connected/bound to the AD and use local accounts on the client computer (bound to AD/OD doesn't matter if using a local account) for logging in on the local computer and then use the AD credentials to connect to server shares. Then you most likely would have UID problems.

  • Microsoft office download problem " Mounting Failed "

    Hello there ,
    Thank you for your time . Im trying to download Microsoft office for mac but every time i download the file i get the message " Mounting Failed " Dont know what the problem .
    thank you

    As Office is not an Apple product, I strongly recommend asking in the Microsoft Office:Mac forums here:
    Office for Mac
    Everyone there is a Mac user AND an Office user, something you can't say about Apple's forums. You will get the fastest help there and I think you will find the contributors more than helpful.

  • Microsoft Office Preview Problem (QuickLook)

    So I had the unfortunate idea to install Microsoft Office 2011 on my macbook, this however rendered Lion's new .DOC preview functuinality null as it now only displays the preview as the document icon, as well as the thumbnail. It disabled the normal preview of all Office files, and defaulted the QuickLook generator to some kind of 'Office Import' generator. I ran the following to reload the QuickLook cache:
    qlmanage -r
    Which returned:
    qlmanage: resetting quicklookd
    Then, retrying to generate the preview image...
    qlmanage -p SecondDraft_Jul28.doc
    It returned:
    Testing Quick Look preview with files:
              wyatt_AGU_LM_SecondDraft_Jul28.doc
    [WARNING] Office import returned an error generating preview for SecondDraft_Jul28.doc: -1
    I then uninstalled Office via http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768 and then restarted my computer, re-tried the above commands, same response. I also even attempted to remove the QuickLook pref file:
    com.apple.QuickLookDaemon.plist
    Any help to get the Lion preview/quicklook restored would be awesome!

  • Adobe reader/Microsoft Office 2003 problem

    When downloading pdf file which opened to Microsoft Office I was presented with a File conversion window which invited me to " Select the encoding that makes your document readable"
    I have not come across this before and have previously successfully downloaded files from the same source.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.
    Alistair.

    Usually you can just right-click on a pdf and choose Open With and instead of choosing something from the list instead select Choose Program at the bottom of the flyout. Then choose Reader and then check Always use the selected program...you should now be able to click on a pdf and have it open in Reader instead of Word.
    Good Luck!

  • Lion / Microsoft Office 2011 problems

  • Mavericks and Microsoft Office 2011 (Problem even after Complete format of MBPRO)

    After Mavericks Install on my MBPRO I ran into problems with Word 2011.
    I completely updated it and Mavericks.
    What happens is that when I open some Word files, Word crashes without a say, but I can open them as Guest.
    I thought I would fix the problem by formatting my computer and reinstall everything on it, but I get the same problem!
    I did not use time machine nor migration assistant or any such way to restore my computer, so there is no way that old user files could be causing this!
    What on earth can I do!
    BTW I have Microsoft Word: 14.3.8
    MAC OS X
    Software  OS X 10.9 (13A603)

    I saw some other threads that indicated certain fonts were causing the issue.  I believe they had to remove Office and then reinstall which would only have the package fonts. Do a search and see if you can find those comments.

  • Microsoft Office Entourage, problem receiving mail

    I have set up Microsoft Entourage to send E-Mail but it will not receive E-mail.
    Whenever I select the button (Click here for advanced settings) ((in the receiving mail part of preferences)) the advanced settings window pops up, I then click the box (Override default POP Port) then I change to the correct POP port.
    I then exit the advanced settings window with all the settings correct, Entourage automatically turns off the override button, I then cannot receive E-mail.
    Whatever I do it will always turn off the override POP box
    Does anyone know why? And maybe how to fix the problem?
    Thank You

    Since Entourage is not an Apple product, you should really consider posting your question on Microsoft's own forums for Entourage, as they would be more focused on the issue than an Apple forum that deals with Apple's own Mail and Address Book applications:

  • Microsoft Office Suite problems.

So before I make a balls up of my phone once again, is it possible to remove without re-installing Symbian Belle? Microsoft come up with all sorts of space wasting rubbish it's no surprise WP7 hasn't sold.

    I cannot load Microsoft Word or Powerpoint on my laptop. The icon appears on the dock, then disappears without ever running the program. Due to the fact my laptop's cd drive is broken, I can't try reinstalling, although I have tried reinstalling a back up copy of the application from a USB.

  • Problems with saving/printing Microsoft Office documents

    Did a security update yesterday (2/1/12).  After that I can no longer save or print any Microsoft Office document.  How can this be fixed?

    To access your user library
    Hold down the option key while using the Finder "Go To Folder" command. Enter ~`/Library. Delete the .plist(s) for the application.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    http://osxdaily.com/2011/07/04/show-library-directory-in-mac-os-x-lion/
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.2. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • Problems with Microsoft Office Outlook Web Access and any web browser

    My university e-mail goes through Microsoft Office Outlook and I access it through the Web Access.
    I have tried with 3 browsers (Chromium, Firefox and Gnome's Web, and with all of them I am getting the same problems.
    Basically, once I log in, the css seems to be screwed sometimes (not always). I click in a e-mail to read it, and it does nothing (not always), I write an e-mail, click send, and it gives me a white screen error (not always), and then it is not even saved as draft.
    I have this errors like 70% of the time, or more, which means that every time I want just to read an e-mail, I spend 5 minutes reloading the website, singing out, clearing cookies,... until eventually all seems to load correctly.
    No idea how I can fix this, or how I can get this to work.
    thank you!

    The light version is set by default, and I cannot choose the non-light.
    I assume it makes some kind of "webbrower check id", and mine sends whatever linux like id, which the server doesn't recognize, and it screwes me

  • "Program files" directory problem during Microsoft Office Customization Installer in non-English versions of Windows

    We have a document-level customization solution for Word and are experiencing problems during deployment in an environment running on terminal services. The OS (Windows 2012) is English and Word (2013) is non-English (German). 
    Installation is done into the "Program Files" folder correctly. But when trying to start a word document linked to the specific template. The "Microsoft Office Customization Installer" pops up with the error.
    "There was an error during installation"
    From: file:///C:/Programme/[CompanyName]/[Productname]/[Productname].vsto
    Downloading file:///c:/Programme/[CompanyName]/[Productname]/[Productname].vsto did not succeed.
    Exception: ....
    System.Deployment.Application.DeploymentDonwloadException: Download file:///C:/Programme/[Companyname]/Productname]/[Productname].vsto did not suceed. ---> System.Net.WebException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Programme\[Companyname]\[Productname]\[Productname].vsto'.
    ---> System.Net.WebException: ...... ---> System.IO.DirectoyNotFoundException......
    The problem seems to be that the installer is looking for C:\PROGRAMME instead of C:\PROGRAM FILES. C:\PROGAMME is the German localized name of PROGRAM FILES (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Files).
    The installer installs the solution correctly deployed into c:\program files, but when the later a user tries to start it and the Microsoft Office Customization Installer is called, it tries to access the non-existing "c:\programme" folder. This
    doesn't exist, because Windows is English.
    Is there any thing related to deploying solutions on a platform which has different languages (mixing/matching of OS language and Office language?)
    Thank you for your help

    Hello,
    1. First, I would confirm with you whether you dealt with the localization for your document-level add-in?
    2. Did you use this way to define the Create a class that defines the post-deployment action part of Put the document of a solution
    onto the end user's computer (document-level customizations only) and did you get the path with Environment.SpecialFolder enum?
    To handle this, I would recommend you consider using Environment.SpecialFolder to set that property.

    Easiest way with Acrobat pro, is save the Word document, then convert the document to PDF with Acrobat, rather than doing a "save as" in Word itself to PDF.
    Do you have Acrobat full version or Pro?

    I'm curious how you are running this code within excel as I would expect you would've had to write a dll to expose the SDK as COM in order to be able to access it from an excel document.
