Microsoft Office Universal Apps for Windows 10

How can I find the objects available for developing Universal Office Apps, specifically for Outlook and Outlook Calendar?

Hi grldsndrs,
Did you mean that you want to devleoping an VSTO add-in? As far as I know, it supports developing in Visual Studio 2013 and it is not relative to the operater system.

[Desktop][Other] Universal App for Windows 10

Spotify should consider developing a universal app for Windows 10 so it can be used on Desktops, Phones, Tablets and on the Xbox. You already have a Windows Phone app so I'm assuming the majority of the code is already written. Essential features such as connect need to added to the app also. Having Spotify on the Windows Store for desktop would be beneficial for users who are not tech savy and only use the store to install applications. There are a couple of people I know who wanted to try Spotify out and came back to me saying they "couldn't find it on the store". Seeing as Windows 10 will be a free upgrade to both Windows 7 and 8 users it would be a great idea to look into this.

Updated: 2015-07-05Hi and thanks for your contribution! A similar idea has also been suggested here:

Microsoft confirms: Skype won't be a universal app for Windows 10

ZDNet got a Microsoft rep to answer some questions about Windows 10 and Skype. Here's the quick summary of what Microsoft revealed during that Q&A:"The take-aways: Microsoft isn't planning to redo its Modern Skype app as a Universal Windows app, but instead is replacing that Modern Skype app with three separate but related Universal communications apps. Those Messaging, Phone and Video apps with Skype "built in" won't be part of Windows 10 when it starts rolling out on July 29; they will be available "later this year." Windows users who prefer using the integrated Skype app will be able to use the Desktop Skype app. These new communications apps won't be coming to Windows 7, Windows 8.x or Windows Phone 8.x."So far, Microsoft has not announced when the preview version of Messaging, Phone and Video apps for Windows 10 will be released to Windows Insider Members.

Yes! Please make the app universal and add more features that are present with IOS..

How to separate different views and parts of a single line of business(LOB) universal app for windows 8.1 with many users.

Hello am an intermediate Windows Phone/Store Developer. Am currently in the process of implementing a LOB app that will have three different types users, an admin, a student, a teacher . Depending on how a user logs in i would like certain pages to be exposed
to them and the rest to be hidden. The app will also store data temporally on a local db then sync regularly to an azure database(Can the recent entity framework 7 that supports store/phone apps allow code first databases or are there features still not fully
accessible in WinRT apps)...This i believe can handle but also kindly point me out to existing implemented resources/examples i will appreciate very much.
What am finding problematic is how to consume different app data stored by various users logged in for these different views. Will i need an asp web api is it really necessary cause i want to avoid it cause i have about three months to do it. I do not want
to create three different apps and one ASP Web AP, i want one single app and an api if possible, i know windows usually sandboxes apps hence app to app communication will be hard if not impossible. So my question is, is it possible to implement different
user session management with a login (Windows Live ID) which i can abstract various parts of the app from them depending on the users login id in the app. E.g How can an admin logged in the same app as the student have access rights to certain pages in the
app that a student will not see. How do i route different users to certain pages and can isolated storage store these persisting as a setting.
How can i know which login id belongs to which of the three users? How do i then assign different access to different controls of the app with their id,provide custom views routes,access right,session management. I think i can do these without an ASP Web
API is It wise? Building pages in the apps is easy but i want users to see different views of the app instead of one standard app depending on there login id, how can the NAVIGATION URI be used here. How can azure and features like active directory,azure mobile
services. I know i have repeated the same things over and over and these might be complex for a free advise but as a windows dev these is my one stop shop. Any one with a view on how to approach these kindly show me the best directions. Thanks guys in advance.

I suggest you have a look at this sample.
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/ListView-Interaction-ac044c3c. MainPage provides the framework to hold the content. At runtime, we create the Scenario collections and then bind to control. This approach can help you determine the type of users
and provide some appropriate pages at runtime.

Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 10 Technical Preview

Hi, I've never developed a plugin for Office before. I've downloaded the technical preview of Windows 10 and have it running via Boot Camp on my MacBook (Looks good! I'll buy it when it comes out). Obviously with this being in beta it's understandable that
there are problems, so this is just a heads up on one particular problem. Maybe there's already a solution or workaround?
I've downloaded Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition, brought a copy of Microsoft Office Home And Student 2013 and am currently in the process of installing Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013.
The only problem though is that when I try to install it I get the following message:
http://s22.postimg.org/dxh1gtra9/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools.png
Here is the log:
http://pastebin.com/7wWkSfjF
I also tried to download the file directly and run that.
http://s3.postimg.org/tj9vb660j/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools2.png
I right clicked on the file and noticed an options called "Troubleshoot Compatibility". There was a wizard, and I ran through the wizard a number of times through different routes but none of them worked. I was unable to find the option which turned
off compatibility mode. I then searched for answers online which told me to do some things in the regedit program but that didn't seem to solve the problem.
Anyway, I understand that this is a beta version of Windows 10 and that there are going to be problems but thought it would be best to let you know. Perhaps I should just bite the bullet and buy Windows 8.
Many thanks,
Lawrence

Hi,
The app for Windows phone is a BETA version. In my case (also a Nokia) it can find my printer but when sending something to printer, printer won't print. Again, it's only a BETA version.

Make a flashlight App for Windows Phone 8.1 (TorchControl not supported)

I want to develop a simple flashlight app for Windows Phone 8.1 (non Silverlight). I used the TorchControl but it returns a false when i tried to run on my Device
Here is the code i Used
private async void SwitchOn(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
var mediaDev = new MediaCapture();
await mediaDev.InitializeAsync();
var videoDev = mediaDev.VideoDeviceController;
var tc = videoDev.TorchControl;
if (tc.Supported)
if (tc.PowerSupported)
tc.PowerPercent = 100;
tc.Enabled = true;
else
res.Text = "not Supported";
Is there any other way to do that..
Thanks In Advance.

Hi Gopal,
I would also suggest you to try the solution from this post:

Start the video capture first and then start the torch control.

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.

Can I load Microsoft Office Word 2011 for MAC on an IPAD 2? If yes, then how? I have the software and one more load opportunity left.
Reason that I ask is that I'm worried that I will not be able to read or work word or excel docs that people send me.

No. Office 2011 for Mac is coded to run with OS X. In order to work on the iPad the app must be coded for iOS instead.
If you look in the iTunes App Store, you will find that there are many apps that allow you to work with Office files on an iPad.

App for Windows 8 are really bad

The apps Microsoft made for Skype are really bad.
Any chance for a update so you have some chance of getting to things like call and chat and make it more clear who are online.
Out of a lot of bad apps for windows 8 this take the cake!!

Is there a reason "Elaine" (http://community.skype.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88058) had to edit/moderate EVERY one of the posts here?
This thread started some time ago, so please correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like the word "sucks" was replaced with "are really bad" in the last 12 hours.
The only reason I bring this up is because this is censorship and let me tell you Elaine that it is NOT helping Microsoft/Skype's case here!
If something SUCKS it means it IS REALLY BAD. The word "sucks" is VERY well known throughout the english speaking world to mean this. Any moderation on the grounds that the moderation was done "In deference to international sensibilities" is ridiculous! This stinks of corporate censorship!
Rather than censor everyone's comments, how about you (the company) just fix the issues and let us know they are fixed OR if fixing them isn't going to happen in the near future at least let us know that you're working on it!
I have not seen even one official comment by Skype or Microsoft staff regarding this issue! NOT ONE! That implies to me that there is something seriously wrong and its almost definitley not going to be fixed any time soon!
Perhaps after all these years of being a happy customer it is time to start looking at moving away from Skype to another service...

Telstra Air App For Windows 8.1 Phone

When will Telstra be providing an Air App for WIndows 8.1 phone?

I, for one, support this request - especially with the universal app situation and the developer tools available to help convert iOS and Android code to Windows, there really shouldn't be much blocking this app being released. By all means say you're not going to write a Windows Phone 8.1 app from scratch, but how about a Windows 10 Mobile universal app? This would run not only on phones, but also 3G/4G enabled Windows tablets. If your developers are not aware of these tools, please get them to take a look at developer.windows.com to be enlightened! Here's a link to the actual iOS and Android 'bridges' that can help migrate an app easily: https://developer.windows.com/en-us/uwp-bridges

Playmemories app for Windows phone

I have recently bought the HDR-AS100VR action cam, and has desperately beeb looking for the Playmemories app for my also recently acquired Windows phone. This however seems futile. I can find several post in here and others on the internet dating back from 2013 discussing why this app is not available for Windows smartphones. Sony (and Microsoft) please make an effort to help your loyal customers and see to it that this app is made available ASAP instead of pushing them into using other devices, which will be the result id nothing happens.

Hi Kasper,
The PlayMemories Mobile app is only available in iOS and Android devices. It is also available for Vaio running Windows 8 and 8.1. We understand that you'd want to control the camera or send pictures to your mobile device. We will take not of this and forward it to the engineering department for future product developments.
Please refer to this other thread for suggestions on how to control the camera in a Windows phone. http://community.sony.com/t5/Cybershot-Cameras/Playmemories-app-for-Windows-phone/td-p/167875/highlight/true/page/8
For further assistance with your concern, we recommend visiting our Sony Global Web site for information on contacting the Sony Support Center in your region at http://www.sony.net/SonyInfo/Support/.

Open Question: question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8

We have read every Lumia review and we are listening. An open question to those who comment about the lack of apps for Windows Phone 8.Tell us which apps you miss? Nokia/MSFT Customer Care

The major apps that are missing are Banking Apps. There are a few, but major banks like Regions Bank, Capital One Bank, are nowhere to be found for Windows Phone. Microsoft should be pursuing these banks to develop apps for the platform. Maybe bribe them with free software or tech support or something. Also some of the dating apps like Grindr for the gay community, Blender for the straight community, are lacking as well. Perhaps Microsoft could assist them in developing the "unified" app for both Windows and Windows Phone?
In fact, Microsoft would do well to begin a "Developer Assistance Program" where developers could (for a small fee) contact the DAP Center and get assistance with issues creating apps for the Windows Platform. If developers know they have a source to go for assistance, they may be more inclinded to develop better apps.

Creating private apps for Windows

Dear DPS Community
I would like to create Windows App and distribute this app internally.
I only found this information on Adobe's website:
Creating private apps for Windows
Microsoft has two requirements for enterprise deployment of Windows Store apps:
The app's device must be joined to a domain.
The certificate used to sign the .appx must be in the trusted list of certificates on the device.
The .appxbundle file provided by DPS App Builder is signed for submission to Windows Store. For enterprise deployment, you might need to re-sign the .appxbundle and its contents with your own enterprise certificate. Contact your Adobe representative for more information. For distribution of the app file, use any supported Microsoft method. You can even use a simple command-line method.
Where can I find further informations? Is there a companion guide for windows out there?
Thanks for your help.
- Cindy

Microsoft’s guide for enterprise distribution of Windows Store apps is at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh852635.aspx. There's nothing special about DPS apps that makes them different from a distribution standpoint than any other Windows Store app, and the Microsoft guide is the go-to reference for how to do enterprise deployment of Store apps.
Note that the DPS apps downloaded from App Builder are self-signed with an untrusted certificate. Most enterprises will likely have their own corporate certificate they’d prefer to use instead. To re-sign the DPS app:
Unpack the bundle using makeappx
makeappx.exe unbundle /p viewerpackage.appxbundle /d unpacked_directory
makeappx.exe bundle /d unpacked_directory /p resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle
Go into unpacked_directory
Sign both .appx files using signtool
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx viewer_x86.appx
signtool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx viewer_ARM.appx
Re-pack the bundle using makeappx
Sign the .appxbundle using signtoolsigntool.exe sign /fd sha256 /f enterprisekey.pfx resigned_viewer_package.appxbundle
