Office documents not opening from sharepoint in MS Office 2013

I am not able to open MS office documents from my sharepoint site.
Error: "Sorry, We couldn't open "URL"
I am using MS office 2013 and IE8
Thanks in advance.

Are you trying to open in browser or in client?
Check this article
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3004898/en-us
Check if you have also another older office version installed on the client.
Change the document library settings -> Advanced settings ->Open in client application or open in browser - are there any differences?

Will Lion make my Office documents not open?

I have MANY .doc and .docx documents from my PC days that I NEED. Does this upgrade to Lion make those not open in Pages like they used to? I enjoyed using Pages for .doc and .docx files along with Pages files. I was hearing that Lion makes Office files not open or work anymore. Is this so?

No, no. That's just silly confused people who have old versions of Office which require Rosetta to run (or an older PPC-based Mac), and Lion no longer includes - and can't run - Rosetta.
An upgrade to Lion will not affect the ability of your Pages application to open those files.

My Word documents are not opening from sharepoint

When I attempt to open a word document from sharepoint it remains stuck at "Downloading: http://intranet/document url"
Word 2010 and SharePoint 2010
This occurred when we restored a server after virus issue. Also I noticed that I left one of these word documents in this "downloading state" and the next morning when I opened my station the document was open... therefore it seems to just be taking
WAY too long to open.

Is this SharePoint a stand alone server, where web and database are in the same box ?
Do you know what steps changed settings from before virus, then, after virus ? Maybe people left the anti-virus running on
military emergency mode, and it's consuming all server resources.
You might want to check the database files' sizes, WSS_Content mdf and ldf. Is the ldf way too big ?

Applications/documents not opening from Finder/Desktop

iMac 17" 800. I returned home after 3 months away to find the iMac in a mess (it is used by my wife and daughter). I repaired preferences and then found the disk to be not repairable with Disk Utilities. I started as a Target Drive and repaired from my MBP using Mac Pilot. Disk Utility showed repair to be good.
The problem is that I can start applications from the Dock and from the Finder using the "Action" box>Open. I cannot open an application by clicking on it nor a document in the Finder. Folders on the Desktop are equally not responsive.
I have done an Archive and Install to Tiger 10.4 and updated back to 10.4.11. The fault was the same throughout. I have deleted User/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist-com.apple.finder.plist-com.app le.LaunchServices.plist. All to no avail and the fault remains.
The only other outstanding fault is that the Return key on the keyboard appears to be out of action, although I now get an audio acknowledgement of it being pressed, if nothing else. I am, as all the above has so far failed, wondering if there is some obscure connection?
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
TY
PS Can a keyboard still be flushed out under the tap?

To those of you who might have the same problem!
Just after making this post, I decided to try logging out and logging back in, something I had not done, as far as I can remember, since the computer came out of the box some years ago. I have no idea what happens when you do this with regard to software, but lo and behold, everything is working again. How this happened after an archive and install plus all the upgrades failed to achieve anything I have no clue.
Now to stick the keyboard under the tap - you never know!?
TY

Live Office Document not opening in Excel

CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
I have installed Live Office and I can connect to my CMS and my reports are visible. When I try and import one it goes through several dialogs of "Importing Report" and "Updating Data" but then it just returns to the Select Report screen and never actually OPENS the report. It feels to me like a display/control permission thing... but I have completely disabled my Symantec Firewall and I still have the same problem Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

How to disable "Edit in browser" button in office documents that open in browser

guys,
Environment:
sharepoint 2010
installed Office Web app
i installed office word apps and integrated it with sharepoint 2010 and all the office documents now open in the browser. but this also give the qualified users access to the button "Edit in Browser" while viewing the document in the browser (and if the user
selects to do this and saves then it creates an office 2010 document in the document library), is there any way to disabled the "edit in browser" option completely for all the users, i dont want any users to edit documents online.
thanks
sameer.

Ok so i came up with hack to 'hide' the edit link ..
You need to edit the css file here on your server
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\INC\1033\WordViewer\WordViewer.css
and add this
div [title="Edit in Browser"]{display:none};
And to hide the edit capabilties for Powerpoint app - add this jquery
$('iframe[id*="MSOPageViewerWebPart"]').ready(function () {
        $('iframe[id*="MSOPageViewerWebPart"]').contents().find('.ms-cui-ctl-medium').each(function () {
            if ($(this).text() == "Edit in Browser")
                $(this).hide();
Obviously not great solutions, but works for now.

Password protected PDF document not opened with E7...

Dear all,
Password protected PDF document not opened with nokia E7-00. Previously I used nokia N79, that time I was able to open Password protected PDF file such as bank email statement etc. Now I can't.
It is quite disappointing with this phone !

hi mateys,
you may want to search under "PDF" in the Nokia Store, as some solutions such as Picsel Smart Office exist, where they do open password-protected PDF's.

Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?

Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected? I've tried changing "sharing and permissions" to "read and write" as suggested on other help sites, but this did not correct the problem.

I had the same problem---contacted Adobe and their service rep helped me by
A.   Deleting Adobe Reader from my iMac's Applications in Finder
B.   Downloading Google Chrome browser and then
C.   Downloading the latest Adobe Reader for Mac 10.6.8 in Google Chrome--it works
Adobe acknowledges problem with the latest Snow Leopard update 10.6.8 and with this work around, I can open PDF's using the Google Chrome Browser.
Is this the ideal solution---NO. Safari is my main browser. I now have to use a separate browser for PDF's.
Am I happy to be able to open PDF's---YES
You can't believe the time I spent to solve this problem before calling Adobe for help. My Apple Care policy expired a month ago . As I use Photoshop Elements, I was not charged by Adobe for their help on the telephone.

Why will PDF not open from email?

I recently modified my Adobe Reader 9.1 (with instructions from the bank) to be able to electronically sign documents.
Since then I can not open any PDF documents from email. I went back and reversed the changes I made. I uninstalled Adobe and reinstalled it. No luck.
I have to save the documents and open them from Windows Explorer.
Any Ideas?

A fast workaround for PDF problem (See my original post)
In Firefox:
Open Tools > Options > Under Main tab click Save files to > click Browse
Scroll up or down to find where you want it to go (I put mine under Documents because it's the easiest to find).
Click New folder and label it something you will quickly recognize.
Now when you click on a PDF attachment it will automatically be sent to that file and you can double click or open
it in Adobe Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Note) If I use Internet Explorer (I have not used IE in years) I can open PDF's from Hotmail with out a problem.
I like Firefox better so I will continue to use the quick workaround until somebody finds a fix.
If you use IE, here are the instructions for saving PDF files.
Click
to open Windows Mail.
Open a message that contains an attachment by double-clicking it
in the message list.
In the message window, click the File menu,
and then click Save Attachments.
Select the folder where you want to save the attachments.
By default,
Windows Mail saves attachments in your
Documents folder. If you want to save the attachments to a different folder,
click Browse, and then select a folder.
Select the attachments that you want to save, and then click Save.

Pages will not open from iCloud since Maverick update

Pages will not open from iCloud since Maverick update

I have a similar problem. I upgrated to Maverick a couple weeks ago and at that time I saw a very different appearance to my Pages documents, especially my book lists. Numbers appeared at the left side of the pages. All seemed well. Now the last few times I've tried to open those documents, I get the message that "YOU NEED A NEWER VERSION OF PAGES TO OPEN THIS DOCUMENT. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE LATEST VERSION OF PAGES FROM THE MAC APP STORE". I can't figure out how or why the version reverted back to the way it was. That message doesn't always come though. Some documents I can open but some I can't open at all. If I click LEARN MORE, I am directed to the APP STORE where I can buy Pages 5.0.1 for $19.99!!!!! What the heck is going on????? Am I going to have to pay for pages where Maverick was FREE.

My mail will not open from the dock and if I try and close my computer it is prevented by the application mail being open. Help please.

You can try to Force Quit the Mail application by using the keys OPTION COMMAND ESC, from the window that pops up select Mail and clcik force quit.
Have you tried launching Mail from your Applications folder? It launches properly, drag the icon off the dock, it should vanish in a puff of smoke, you can then go to the Applcations folder and drag the Mail icon back to the dock to create a new shortcut.

Programs will not open from Dock

I have updated my Macbook Pro with Yosemite which has led to - a lot. Programs will not open from Dock, they are just revealed in Finder. Scrolling with mousebuttons in a browser will zoom instead of scroll, the courser will not change after changing tool in Indesign. Just to mention a few problems i have discovered so far. I think I was an idiot to uppgrade to Yosemite. PLEASE HELP!

Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions, then quit DU and Restart the MBP. If that does not clear the issues, restart again holding the Command and R keys, and from Utilities on the menu bar select Install Mac OS X. That will reinstall Yosemite but leave your content and settings intact. See if that repairs whatever is broken.
