Office Administrative Template installation with 32 and 64 bits clients

Hello,
I would like to install the Office Administrative Templates (2007, 2010, 2013) but I don't really understand how.
I have several clients computers :
-Windows XP and 7 (the XP will disappear but not now so I have to handle with)
- 32 and 64 bits (OS and associate Office version)
- two Office languages (English and French)
In this case, what I have to put in the domain controllers (or in the central store for GPO, not matters), to cover all the cases ?
I do not understand the x86 or x64 Office administrative templates versions neither how the languages are managed.
Thanks a lot.

The Office2013 Admin Templates+OCT is available in both 32bit and 64bit formats
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35554
Because the download contains the Templates *and* the OCT (OPAX/OPAL and various DLLs etc), and, the OCT itself and also the OCT output file (a customization MSPfile) is architecture-specific, that is why there is a 32bit and a 64bit download.
The ADMX/ADML files themselves, are not architecture-specific.
ADMX and OPAX, is language-neutral, the language-specific details are contained within ADML/OPAL.

Portege R100 - OS installation with 16 bit bootable PCMCIA CD-Rom

Hi All
Just wondering if any of you boffin's can advice on a very frustrating problem I am experiencing.
I am trying to re-install the recovery CD on a Portege R100, so far, with no success.
I have learnt that I need(ed) a 16-bit bootable pcm cdrom to do the job - upon obtaining a [LG] 16-bit bootable pcm drive I have found that it does not appear to be recognised at boot up, choosing boot from pcm does nothing, it just loads from HDD and I'm at a loss on how to progress.
I have spoken to Toshiba and Freecom, both of who advise any 16-bit bootable pcm cdrom should do the trick, they both confirmed they no longer manufacture or sell these devices and both suggested I source one from the likes of eBay.... anyone any ideas?

Hi,
if you start Windows, will the drive then be recognised?
Have you tried to change the boot priority in BIOS?
Bye

Office 2013 Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) and Office Customization Tool

When I download the Office 2013 Admin Template files (ADMX/ADML) and OCT I get 3 files. Admin, AMDX and a excel spreadsheet. Is the Admin
folder the ADML folder? Reason I ask is b/c I'm trying to disable the Offie 2013 Startup screen via GPO and I have been directed to save the ADMX to %systemroot%PolicyDefinitions and ADML to %systemroot%PolicyDefinitions\en-us
on my base image that I am creating so obviously the ADMX is straight forward, but not the ADML since all I see is Admin. thanks,
SSC

Hi,
When you downloaded an Office Administrative Template files, please extract them to your driver, say
D:\. You need to copy all .admx file under D:\..\ADMX folder into
%systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions. It’s a root-level folder, which contains all language-neutral ADMX files.
Then please copy all .adml files under D:\...\ADML\en-us into
%systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions\EN-US. This subfolder contains the language-specific ADML resource files. You can create subfolder of %systemroot\PolicyDefinitions for each language that you will use.
For how to load the Administrative Template files, please follow the instructions for "Loading the ADMX templates" in Use Group Policy to enforce Office 2010 settings:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc179081.aspx . Although the article is for Office 2010, the Administrative Templates information also applies to Office 2013.

Installing 32-bit client on windows 64-bit

Hi friends,
I've installed 64-bit Oracle software and database on Windows 2008 64-bit server. We have created this server to troubleshoot something at 3rd party location and our application will be on the same server as the database. Our application is not compatible with 64-bit client so is it possible to install 32-bit Oracle client on this system with 64-bit oracle database running? Do I have to make any changes to the path for the application to use 32-bit cilent?
THanks a lot

But when she click on a report to scedule; IE throws a error 'page not found'.

Please Help Me out.
If Press cancel then everything works normal.
thanks in advance

Hello Bhatt,
Most probably your PC was corrupted by the Dell software you downloaded. First of all, I'd recommend contacting the Dell support service representative. Also you can try to re-install Office.
Finally, I'd recommend asking such question on the
Microsoft Community forum instead. The current forum is for Office developers.

Office files protected with AD RMS Client / SDK and Office

Hello,
I'm facing a strange issue when it comes to open an office file that was protected with AD RMS Client (to be precise, with an application built with AD RMS SDK 2.1). I would like to understand the reasons behind this issue (maybe some missing or wrong configuration)
or if this is just a gui only problem that does not affect the correct behaviour of the whole suite.
I'm not using templates.
If I protect an office file directly from MS Word (for example, but we have the same with Excel and Powerpoint) and save it, then I can close it and re-open it. The following infobar is displayed:
Now with AD RMS SDK 2.1 we have developed a standalone program that applies the same permissions on office files via the AD RMS Client. When the file is re-opened, the following infobar is displayed:
"Do Not Forward" is shown, no reference to email permissions was added by the client. The description is wrong too, as print permission has been granted, for example.
Is this behaviour correct?
How is this infobar created?
Is there a setting (either in client or in server) that may be wrong, and that leads to this issue?
Thank you,
Massimiliano

Thanks to Microsoft response, this issue has been resolved.
The license handle needs some additional properties to be set, in order for Office to display this information correctly.
IpcSetLicenseProperty(licenseHandle, FALSE, IPC_LI_DESCRIPTOR, pIpcTemplateInfo);
The last parameter is a PIPC_TEMPLATE_INFO pointer to a structure of type IPC_TEMPLATE_INFO where
wszName and wszDescription are filled with valid values.

ORA-12533 Coupled with 32 bit & 64 bit Windows client installations?

Hi all,
I have the 32 bit Windows client version 10.2.0.3.0 installed on my Windows 7 64 bit machine. My TNS files where configured properly, and my connections were working just fine within our web applications.
Recently, I've begun to work on a C# Visual Studio console application and when running this app against the very same databases that I have been connecting to before, I ran into this initial error:
Attempt to load Oracle client libraries threw BadImageFormatException. This problem will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed
So, I installed a 64 bit Windows client version 11.2.0.1.0 (I did not remove the 32 bit Oracle client).
Now, with both the 32 and the 64 bit Oracle clients installed, I can still access all my previous web applications. However, the console app (which, again, is accessing the same databases from the same host/starting location) is now giving me this error:
ORA-12533: TNS:illegal ADDRESS parameters
I've looked around, and what I've read indicates a problem(s) with the ADDRESS parms in the TNSnames.ora file.
Yet, my TNS file was not changed...and still works as needed for the other, web based apps. I have, however, only 1 TNSnames.ora file...located in the original 32 bit client installation folders.
Why would the console app choke with the ORA-12533 error, when the web apps still work?
Does each client installation require a TNSnames.ora file? I noticed that the 64 bit installation does not have the \network\ADMIN folder path (nor the actual TNSnames.ora file) like the 32 bit installation does.
Thanks in advance.
b.t.w. I can still use (with both client versions installed) my SQLPlus to connect to the databases.

Hi,
The 32-bit client and ODP is supported on x64 with .NET applications running in 32-bit mode. You just need to make sure your application pool enables 32-bit.

I'm trying to install Adobe Photoshop CS3 on a new ASUS ASM11BB001O computer equipped with 64-bit Windows 7. I use a "bundle" approach, first loading Photoshop 6, then upgrading with CS upgrade and then CS3 upgrade. The installation goes smoothly until I add PS CS, and then it balks at the "accept" Adobe conditions screen. I have two other (Gateway) computers with Windows 7, 64-bit, on both of which the PS-6, CS-CS3 pathway worked fine. Any thoughts on how to get this working? Thanks

If your goal is to install and activate CS5 there is no need to install anything preceding it. You will only need to have the serial number from the preceding version that you upgrade from (CS3 I guess).

Photoshop CS6 installation with student licensing and moving to Windows 64 bit?

I purchased PS CS6 with student licensing. I was told that I can do two installations (or activations). My question is this: I am currently running Windows 7 32 bit, but I plan to reinstall Windows 7 64 bit later in order to increase my RAM. If I install CS6 now with 32 bit, is it considered a second activation if I reinstall it later under 64 bit, even if it is on the same machine?
Thanks for any information.

You can install the PS CS6 on Windows 7 32 bit and use it , once you have to re-install the Windows 7 64 bit ,
Open Photoshop , Go to Help --> Deactivate
This will deactivate your existing actiavtion and then you can re-install PS on Windows 7 64 Bit , without loosing the activation count.

Installing SAP GUI on 64-bit Windows 7 with 32-bit Office

Until about 6 months ago, 64-bit systems in my environment had 64-bit Office 2010 installed. That caused some problems with other applications, so I made the decision that, going forward, ALL systems would have 32-bit Office 2010 installed.
Apparently, it's taken 6 months, but I finally have a need to Install SAP GUI 7.20 Patch 6 on a 64-bit Windows 7 system with 32-bit Office 2010. It turns out, that doesn't work.
I receive this:
Not all package prerequisits [sic] are fulfilled
Outlook Client extension for the synchronization of SAPoffice calendar with Outlook calendar... No compatible version of Microsoft Outlook found.
I am assuming that since this same installation works on my 32-bit systems, that it is upset about my architecturally-mismatched Office.
Am I correct about the source for this problem? If so, is there anything I can do to make the GUI work in this environment?

Hi John,
Actually, there is no mismatch in having 32-bit Office installed on 64-bit Windows. In fact, this is probably the preferred environment. SAPGUI in general is much happier with 32-bit Office, especially older patches (by the way, 7.20 is no longer in support -- you should upgrade to 7.30).
The errors you're receiving are most probably related to lingering 64-bit components of Office on your workstation. We had the same situation in my office a while back, when we first started rolling out 64-bit Windows to a few users, and the PC techs mistakenly thought that meant they had to install 64-bit Office. That caused lots of problems, since 64-bit Office is incompatible with many things, not just SAPGUI, as you found. Correcting the error by simply reinstalling Office 32-bit resulting in workstations with some 64-bit and some 32-bit components, and that just made things worse. Systems where 32-bit Office was installed from the beginning (on 64-bit OS) had no problems at all.
So, what you're probably going to need to do is to uninstall all Office components (including Outlook, Visio, anything like that, not just Word and Excel), and also uninstall your SAPGUI, then reinstall 32-bit Office (with Outlook) from scratch, then reinstall your SAPGUI. This will probably clear up your problem.

Matt

Oracle Client 64-bit and Oracle Client 32-bit on the same server

Hi,
I have a Windows 2008 server 64-bit with Oracle Client 64-bit and Oracle Client 32-bit installed on different directories (D:\Oracle and D:\Oracle32)
Is it possible to define for certain applications to use the TNSNAMES entry from the 64-bit Oracle Client
and for other applications to use the TNSNAMES entry from the 32-bit Oracle Client
Once I installed the Oracle Client 32-bit (Oracle Client 64-bit version was already installed) and restarted the server I performed a TNSPING and it defaulted to the Oracle Client 32-bit installation path
Thanks,
Barry

Hello,
When you install a new client on a server, it will update the PATH variable, and add the ORACLE_HOME\bin path to it, at the first place. That explains why the tnsping use the last installed ORACLE_HOME.
What you can do if you want only to change the default path to the tnsnames is to set the environment variable TNS_ADMIN to the path where the tnsnames you want to use is located. You can modify this variable in your application if you want to use another tnsnames.
If you want switch from 32 bits to 64 bits client, then you have to modify the PATH variable.
Hope this will help.
Best regards,
Sylvie
