ODBC not installed according to Microsoft Query
Hello,
I have an eMac, as listed below, and recently I did a very stupid thing. I was trying to reload everything from the Tiger disc and managed to delete and reinstall. As a result I lost a lot of work. I have reinstalled pretty much everything, including Microsoft Office for Mac X. I want to do a data list but Microsoft Query tells me ODBC in not installed. When I open ODBC, it seems OK? Can anyone tell me what might be going on please?
Cheers
Kurt

I installed the latest version first. When I was done, Firefox was working great. I got off and went back on to my computer later. Firefox was not there, but the shortcut was. I got this error that the item that referred to the shortcut was no longer there. I uninstalled. I tried the beta (4) and the same exact issue occured.ryansaint11,
this isn’t Apple support; this is a user-to-user forum. We’re just fellow users of Apple products here.
If you want to boot from your SSD, then you should put the SSD where your HDD currently is, and put the HDD into the optical bay. (That setup will also get you the best performance.) At the moment, you’re still booting from your HDD. Note that you will need to format your SSD in Disk Utility [with the “Mac OS X Extended (Journaled)” format] so that you can install OS X onto it.
Since you have an Early 2011 model, it might or might not have originally come with grey installation DVDs. You will be able to find out whether it did or not by trying to use OS X Internet Recovery to install OS X onto your SSD. If it does not work, or if the installed OS turns out to be Snow Leopard, then it will have originally come with the DVDs, and you should purchase a replacement pair of DVDs from Apple or iFixit; those discs will have your MacBook Pro’s Apple Hardware Test and its iLife apps. If the installed OS turns out to be Lion, then it will not originally have come with the grey installation DVDs, and your Apple Hardware Test will be installed along with Lion, and your iLife apps will be downloadable from the Mac App Store. -
Launching MS Office for Mac 2011: "Font is not Installed" errors
Message Microsoft (MSOffice).app wants to use the font "xxx". This font is not installed. Allow Microsoft(whatever).app to use this font? show in finder, don't allow, allow. happens with all Office apps, runs through entire font library.
about 3 months ago this started - not sure what I did to kick it off, but now whenever I try to use a Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 app it runs through the series of fonts and asks me to do something. I can go through one at a time and select 'don't ask me again' and 'allow' or 'don't allow' but I'd rather figure out (and solve) the problem. Any ideas?

OFFICE 2013 - Word could not re-establish a DDE connection to Microsoft Query
Hi, I have installed office 2013 on a pc and used excel to run a query on a database and created a .qry query so I can use this data in word mail merge.
The query runs ok and returns the data.
However, when I go to take the data in through mail merge it comes up with a message "Confirm data source" ( I enabled this after reading kb article below) so I select "MS query files via DDE(*.qry, *.dqy)" as this is a .dqy I select
it. It says at the bottom of the screen word is starting query then comes up with the error "Word could not re-establish a DDE connection to Microsoft Query to complete the current task".
I have re-did the query from scratch and no difference I tried the recommend kb article 918594 and it still doesn't work.
I recreated the odbc link and still no joy.
Has anyone come across this and have they a solution I would be grateful.
Thanks

Hi all...
I'm hoping if anybody could help me. I'm using Microsoft Excel 2010 + Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I've installed the informix client sdk for odbc drivers to create odbc 32 bit connection. Before this, i had successfully installed in
another Windows 7 Professional 64 bit PC the informix client drivers and configured the odbc connection for it. During that time, i can access the 32 bit ODBC using the microsoft query from the Microsoft Excel 2007. But now...in the new PC, even though i had
successfully installed the informix client and manage to configure the 32 bit ODBC for it, my Microsoft Excel 2010 can't call/recognise the 32 bit ODBC connection as if the Microsoft Excel 2010 only called the 64 bit ODBC. Is it in Microsoft excel 2007
it is possible to recognise the 32 bit ODBC but the Microsoft Excel 2010 can't? Is there any solution if my Microsoft Excel 2010 still want to use the 32 bit ODBC connection.Hi,
Excel 2007 has only 32-bit since 64-bit applications for Office are available only for Office 2010. Thus, you can use
32 bit ODBC between Microsoft Excel 2007 & Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. Now, you are using Microsoft Excel 2010 64 bit & Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, thus, you must install the 64 bit ODBC drive. If you still need to use 32
bit odbc drive, please use 32 bit Excel 2010. Here is the detailed steps:

Microsoft Query - ODBC Remedy DB
Hi ALL ,
Am using Microsoft Query ODBC to connect to the BMC Remedy from excel . Now am stuck in a situation i wish to automate it
but for that i need to provide a function that works like getdate() in sql server or sysdate in oracle .
Please let me know what Date function should be passed in the where clause to get the current date data . The Remedy DB can be either Oracle or SQL Server one am not sure .Am asking the question here as am using Microsoft query to connect to the Remedy DB
Please Experts help very near to Automating a project stuck just because am not able to pass the current date in the query :( .
SELECT "HPD:Help Desk"."Assigned Group", "HPD:Help Desk"."Assigned Support Company",
"HPD:Help Desk"."Last Modified Date"
FROM "HPD:Help Desk" "HPD:Help Desk"
WHERE ("HPD:Help Desk"."Last Modified Date" > {ts '2014-02-02 00:00:00'}) .
This Works but i don't want to provide dates manually all the time just provide the Current Date function .
Please help
Thanks
PriyaAs I said, I am able to vouch for what works with your ODBC Driver. I did some googling, and I found a few related problems, including
http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=150522
which looks very similar to your problem. Unfortunately, there is no answer.
It appears that you are using AR System ODBC Driver of which I'm entirely unfamiliar with.
The alternative would be to build the query string and inject either the date, or if you can determine whether you are talking to SQL Server or Oracle and inject the correct function.
Or does Oracle have a date data type? In such case this should work on both:
cast(CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AS date)
As long as the ODBC driver does not get in the way, that is.

A datasheet component compatible with Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation 2010 is not installed error
I have 2013 Office installed and using 2010 SharePoint Foundation.
The button 'Datasheet View' is available on the site but when clicked on I get this error:
The list cannot be displayed in Datasheet view for one or more of the following reasons:
- A datasheet component compatible with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation is not installed.
- Your Web browser does not support ActiveX controls.

I have installed and repaired the Office Suite already, ActiveX is enabled in the browser etc.
I have also enabled the Microsoft Add-ons.
Installed on Windows Server 2008 R2.
How can I solve this issue?Hi,
1. The Edit

2. Edit in data sheet view is not supported in 64 bit version of the i.e.
If I understand correctly you are trying to access site from the Windows server 2008 R2, the default OS installation will have two browsers. Open internet explorer that doesn't have (64 bit) in the bracket. The one with 64bit is not supported

Hi,
I am running BPA on My Exchange 2010 VM (Server 2008 R2 VM on Hyper-V) and get the following errors:
The 'Services' string type value located in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\Setup\Services' registry key is missing or inaccessible. The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service won't start. As a result, all services that depend
on this service won't be able to start
Exchange server [Exchange Server FQDN] is a virtual machine but the additional tools are not installed. This configuration is not supported. Install Virtual Machine Additions for this guest.
Problem is that, for the first, that Key exists and the service is actually running fine. And for the second my VM tools are already installed.
Hopefully someone out there has had the same issue and can assist.
PeteHi Pete,
For the first error message, please try the following steps:
Make sure the Information Store service is in Starting status,
Automatic startup type and works well, as a test we can try to
restart the Infroamtion Store service and verify the service works well.
Start
Registry Editor, find the registry key “Services” under “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\Setup”, its value is “C:\Program
files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14”(default install location), please check your registry, make sure the key “Services” exist and value is the Exchange Server install location and the
location is accessible;
Start
Registry Editor, and locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Exchange\Setup
Use the
Permission option under the Security tab to check the permission setting on this key. Make sure
System is in the list with Full Control permissions if the service account is Local System. If you are not using Local System as the service account, check the existence of the corresponding account in the list and ensure that
it has Full Control permissions. Please refer to this article:
Title: Exchange Store Does Not Start: Errors 7024, 1026, 9542, and 5000
Link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285116
Start
ADSI Edit, and then browse to the following location:
Domain.com/Configuration/Services/Microsoft Exchange/Org/Administrative Groups/AdminGroup/Servers/Server Name
Right-click the
server name, and then click Properties.
Click the
Security tab, make sure this own server’s server object have
full control permission on its own server.
If not or the object is missing, please modify the permission or click
Add, locate the computer account for the Exchange Server computer, add it to the Permissions list with full control.
Click OK, and then close ADSI Edit.
Use
Active Directory Users and Computers to add the current affected
Exchange Server computer account to the Exchange Servers(previous version should be “Exchange Domain Servers”) group in the
Microsoft Exchange Security Groups( or Users) OU. Refer to this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/297295.
Restart the Exchange Server computer, then rerun the ExBPA.
For the second error message, Microsoft don’t recommend to install Exchange Server on virtual machine without additional tools, so the error message occurs. We can just ignore
this message, it will not affect the Exchange servers.

Wsus query needed - get WSUS-Computers, belonging WSUS-Group and Not Installed Count
Hi,
i try to find a way by using basic WSUS powershell cmds in combination with piping in Server 2012 R2 to get all registered computers in WSUS plus belonging WSUS-Group and Update "Not Installed Count" as output.
Is that possible?
I tried multiple times and enden up in using posh - is there no way based on standard powershell commandlets.
Thank you
PeterHi Michael,
it seems that you are right :(. I tried out a few things with powershell (source
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2012/01/19/use-powershell-to-find-missing-updates-on-wsus-client-computers.aspx) - big problem is that i actually cant get belonging WSUS Group to Server object. I only are able to get all WSUS Groups
but cant find the right sytax to get only belonging ones.
Any ideas?
Thanks

What can be done when Cold Fusion 9 ODBC Services will not install?
What can be done when 64-bit Cold Fusion 9 ODBC Service will not install on a Windows Server 2008-R2 64-bit machine? Yes, most of the things in other discussions have been tried.
Hi GDMVU,
Save the below code as CF9_RemoveOdbc.cfm
<cfscript>
//login using admin
//createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("administrator_password" );
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("admin");
//instantiate datasource object
myObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource");
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
writeOutput("Removing ODBC Services...<br>");
returnValue = myObj.removeODBCservice();
writeOutput("ODBC Services removed");
</cfscript>
Save the below code as CF9_InstallOdbc.cfm
<cfscript>
//login using admin
//createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("administrator_password" );
createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.administrator").login("admin");
//instantiate datasource object
myObj = createObject("component","cfide.adminapi.datasource");
</cfscript>
<cfscript>
writeOutput("Installing ODBC Services...<br>");
returnValue = myObj.installODBCservice();
writeOutput("ODBC Services installed");
</cfscript>
Now try the following steps:-
Change admin password in above .cfm pages for your CF 9 server.
Use RemoveObdc cfm page first to remove any existing faulty/corrupted Odbc services.
Use InstallOdbc Odbc services to install Odbc services there.
Hope this helps.

Are you using any MS Office third party Add-ins? Test: Remove third party Add-ins other than PDFMaker. Test to see if the MS Office apps run afterward.
Did you attempt to repair MS Office? Test: Go to Add/Remove Control Panel run Repair.
Finally, have you tried testing to see if it's PDFMaker? Test: Use the Add/Remove Control Panel to modify the Acrobat installation to remove PDFMaker. See if MS Office applications launch and behave correctly? -
I am not able to close Microsoft Database Daemon or SyncServicesAgent applications to install Office 2011 14.4.1 update. Could you assist me? Thanks in advance
The updater should close those processes for you - it didn't used to do so but should now.
If it won't quit the processes for you, open Activity Monitor (Applications>Library folder), search for the processes and quit them. You should be able to install the update now.
I just find it odd that the updater isn't quitting the processes on its own..

My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
Help please!I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
In the meantime I have also tried:
Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
But please remember that:
The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
Then started working unexpectedly in December
Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general.
