Office 2013 ActiveX Controls not working

Hello,
We have two users that are not able to interact with any ActiveX controls in a Word document. When they try to put a check mark in a check box, the whole object gets surrounded by a box like it does when you have it in design mode. Design mode is not
enables and double clicking the object does not bring up Visual Basic. This occurs no matter who is logged into the PC.
I have deleted all files that end in .exd and even ran the MS Fix it tool that does the same. I ran the Office repair tool, both quick and online, and even uninstalled office and re-installed it. None of this
has fixed the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Try deleting one of the checkboxes and place a new one see if it will work then. Or do set the form in design mode, save the document, open it again and place it back in form mode then try again. Do you have code behind the document?

Office 2013 ActiveX Controls no Popup

Hello,
I am testing the active x control settings, but I don´t get a popup message for active x. I have enabled the option to promt me before active x code is executed, but its working without any popup. If I disable active x control the occurs the excepted behave
that no active x code is executed. For testing I have created only a simple active x control with some vba code for a msgbox.
So my question is, under which
circumstances the popup message for active x appears?
Thanks.

If the Trust Center detects a potentially unsafe ActiveX control , the control is disabled, and the Message Bar appears to notify you of a potentially unsafe ActiveX control. Depends on how the ActiveX control is marked and whether a VBA project exists in
the file together with the ActiveX control.

Office 2013 group policies - not working

I'm using Office 2013 Pro Plus SP1 (volume license) on a Windows 7 Pro machine [both are 32 bit]. While I have Server 2003, it's configured to work with Windows 7 and Office 2013 Group Policy templates. I use RSAT on a Win 7 computer to
create/manage the Group Policies.
Since we're not using Office 365, I'm trying to block some of those features, as well as disabling the Office Start screens.
Thinking that SP1 might be the problem, I downloaded the group policy templates for SP1 and copied them to the server.
If I create a policy (Office_2013_settings), with a few settings, like "Block singing into Office". In Group Policy, I disabled the Computer Configuration, leaving the User Configuration enabled. If I force group policy on the target
computer and look at RSOP, I see the computer configuration settings disabled, but nothing for the user configuration, although it's enabled in the policy.
If I put a junk policy entry on the computer configuration and enable both policies on the backend, force group policy on the computer, and look at RSOP, under computer configuration, I see the Office_2013_settings policy, but the policy still doesn't appear
in the user configuration. If I scroll to the bottom of the file, where I can see other Administrative templates and their settings, my Office_2013_settings aren't visible.

I have created a group policy with a few settings, and applied to my own computer. It seems to be very nice to me. Please first check the apply status on the client site based on the GPSVC.log
Thinking the issue might be on the way how you create/manage the Group Policies on Windows Server side. Please check the model of how you deploy your group policy, on a domain or OU level? Loopback Merge or Replace? This might affect whether the user
would receive all settings from GPO applied to User or Computer. This article might be useful to you:

This might be an issue on Windows server side, you may need to post your question to below forum to get more suggestions:

Office 2013 Auto Archiving not working

Dear Sir / Madam,
We are using MS OFFICE 2013 with Windows 8.
Problem we face is Auto Archiving not working at all. We have defined all the parameters, still it is not working. We are using Exchange Server and all the emails are Archived to local PST files after a defined time period.
We have defined all the steps required to do Auto Archiving.
Your help is required in this since we have tried all the options.

Hi,
What's the size or your archive.pst file? Please first make sure it's not getting close to 50 GB limit.
If the size far below 50 GB, please try to use the Inbox Repair tool to scan and repair the archive.pst file. If the file is corrupt, the autoarchive will not happen.

Outlook / Office 2013 PDFMaker is Not working

I cannot activate the PDFmaker in Outlook 2013 (365 Small Business Edition). I have downloaded a trial version of Acrobat XI Pro to make sure I have the latest version of PDFMaker.
I can see the plug-in in the Add-ins Panel. It has a load behaviour of Load at StartUp.... but when i come back to the Add-ins Panel it is still has a status of InActive.
Also, in Word I do not get any extra Ribbon commands (as per Adobe Tutorial.
I am a Win 7 64 bit, using 32 bit Office 365 and have checked that I am loading the 32 bit version of PFFMaker.
Help please. I have spent half a day troubleshooting this issue.
Regards.

No mention of the Acrobat version. You need at AA XI at least and I think the updates are also needed. Otherwise, the upgrade to OFFICE 2013 has just required that you upgrade Acrobat also to be compatible with OFFICE.

Office Web Apps 2013 - Word app not working on Sharepoint 2013 but Excel does

Hi there!
We had some problems with Office Web Apps 2013 not working with Lync, and the status of OWA was unhealty so we decided to install some updates for OWA.
We have downloaded November 2013 update for OWA.
We found out a guide for putting updates on OWA and done this steps:
* Remove-OfficeWebAppsMachine
* Installed the november update
* Restarted OWA server
* ran: New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl https://owasrv.domain.local -ExternalURL
https://owasrv.domain.local -CertificateName "certname" -AllowHttp -EditingEnabled
* Restart-Service WACSM
- checked in IIS in the bindings if the site useses the correct certificate
Then we went on Sharepoint 2013 and ran some commands:
* Remove-SPWOPIBinding –All:$true
* New-SPWOPIBinding -ServerName owasrv.domain.local
* Set-SPWOPIZone –zone “external-https”
Now here are the funny things:
* Excel word app on Sharepoint 2013 works
* Word APP not working (screenshot)
* Lync 2013 powerpoint still not working (screenshot)
* status of OWA is healthy

Hi,
The Friendly name field must be unique within the Trusted Root Certificate Authorities store. In -CertificateName, enter the friendly name you gave your
certificate earlier.
Validate the configuration by navigating to the discovery URL of the Office Web Apps server. Like
https://xxx/hosting/discovery
Meanwhile, the issue is related to Lync, I recommend to you to post the question on Lync Server for further discussion via the link below.

Microsoft Excel 2013 add-in not working after update

I have originally posted this question at answers.microsoft.com and have been re-directed to post here. (http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2013_release-excel/microsoft-excel-2013-add-in-not-working-after/298aff03-c90a-4a2a-b67b-07b6f3c7648c)
We are an organization with over 200 users and are currently using Microsoft Office 2013 (Click-to-run install via Office 365 portal), we have noticed that in Excel when we apply the monthly Office update, the add-in (e.g. Analysis Toolpak) would stop working
with the following error message displayed.
I tried updating from 15.0.4631.1004 to 15.0.4641.1003,
15.0.4641.1003 to 15.0.4649.1004, they all gave the same results.
I have checked the captioned file path and it is indeed missing, I think the update mechanism messed up the add-in somehow, a full re-install would fix it as quick or online repair is not doing the trick. This is not the only add-in it is affecting
as there are some 3rd party add-ins are affected as well.
Please advise how we can fix this without needing to re-install Microsoft Office. Thank you!

I don't have 365 or C2R so I can't address your main question, so just a few thoughts which may not be applicable in your setup.
Check the addin manager to see if your addins are listed and ticked. If listed (ticked or not) check the registry to see where the location is written, if ticked look here
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Excel\Options
and look for keys named OPENx, where x is the order number the addin is loaded
if not "ticked" instead of \Options look in \Add-in-Manager
With a VBA macro or in the VBE's immediate window return
Application.LibraryPath
Assuming you found a listing in the registry do the paths match, if not look in the .LibraryPath to see if the addins got unloaded there into the subfolder \Analysis
If you find the file(s) try un-installing and reinstalling the addins, but browse to the actual folder don't simply tick. If you can't find the files, copy them (from a different system) to the folder indicated by .LibraryPath. In the addin manager uninstall
them if installed, close the manager, open it again and the addins should be listed, tick to re-install.
You say your other addins don't work, I wonder if some mixup has occurred with what Excel thinks is the default path, but note for other addins the default addins path is returned by app.UserLibraryPath
Are you using a Chinese system?

SSRS 2008 R2 Calendar Control not working and report not refreshing on pressing enter in Chrome.

SSRS reports are always best viewed in IE and the report result what you see in IE always will not be same and consistent in thirdy party browswers.
So consider using IE as workaround.

Hi. The issue is a level or two above JDBC. I suggest
opening an official support case. It's probably a
WLW issue.

Sound control not working on my blue tooth keyboard

sound control not working with my bluetooth keyboard

UAVPilot,
Thank you for the information. I do show that the device and car are capable of this function. I do not show any reason you should not be hearing the notifications. One thing you will want to check is that the sound for both your notifications and media are turned up. Also you can look into going into Settings>Apps>S voice Drive Mode> Clear Cache. This should clear any possible bugs in the application. Please keep us updated on this and we can check on other options.
Thank you,

Beats audio controls not working

Using my beats headphones this morning with my MacBook Air and iTunes. Everything is up to date. Although today now the audio controls on the cord won't work. Normally I can pause iTunes or control the volume. I do this multiple times a day but no go today.
Is this another 10.10.2 bug? Illustrator 2014 CC no longer works properly with my external monitor. I'm getting frustrated with all these bugs.
Also, in my 'About This Mac' info window, it shows my OS as "135122" instead of "Mac OS X" - I'm sure that's not normal.
Any thoughts, anyone?

I did a reboot and repaired permissions, which solved the beats headphones controls not working.
Still concerned about the Mac OS version display though. Curious to know if anyone else has that as well.
