  • How to apply an Outlook 2013 Open license to a pre-installed Office Home and Business 2013 installation for Email Auto Archiving functionality

    We're deploying new Dell pc's.
    Unfortunately we have a large existing install base of Office Home and Business in the field due to customers buying Office bundled on Dell machines.  Buying Open License Outlook licenses is more cost effective than upgrading to Office Pro Plus for all
    these users and is our preferred path.  We aren’t sure how to apply these Open License Outlook licenses since the Home and Business installations work off a single license key for all the applications

    Hi,
    Isn't the Office bundled on Dell machines already activated?
    If it's the OEM version that has been installed on the machines and you want to use retail product keys to activate the Office, it's not possible. You will need to uninstall the OEM version and install the retail version.
    You can check the OEM licensing system here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/OEM/en/licensing/productlicensing/Pages/office-2013-licensing-packaging.aspx
    To find more help about OEM depolyment, I should recommend you to get contact with the OEM Reseller Support System

  • Reinstalling Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010 - OS 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium on Dell Inspiron

    To start at the begining....no, that's not fair, that goes all the way back to March 24th!
    My hard drive has been wiped clean twice now...First time was not by MY choice...the guy from India just talked me through it, with no warning of what was going to be the result.  What a nightmare! 
    This 2nd time when I have "retrieved" my files from my external hard drive...my documents are there....just can't open them!  
    Following messages when opening Word or Outlook:
    "Please wait...."etc. "Configuration in Progress Microsoft Office Home and Business".... which takes forever!
    Then:
    "Your AutoCorrect file: c:\users\Tosi\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Office\MSO1033.acl, could not be saved.  the file may be read only, or you man not have permission to modify the file."
    Then:
    "Word cannot open existing file (Normal)
    In tyring to open Outlook...
    Big Red cirlce with an X in it:  Could not install the custom actions.  The form Cache file c:\users\Tosi\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Forms\FRMCACHE>DAT is not valid.  Contact your administrator.
    The same message as Word  "Your AutoCorrcet....etc....MSO1033.acl ...etc. "
    I have tried to change permissions...no luck.  How to I get FULL control over my own computer?  Please!
    When I do finally get Outlook open, nothing is in there.  I looked for my Outlook Data folder and I see that my .pst data file is in 5 places, yet it is not connecting with Outlook.  No mail, address or calendar are in there. (to back
    track...the first time I retrieved my stuff off the hard drive everything worked)
    Microsoft has promissed numerous times to assit me to resolve these problems through very lovely emails but no one has called to follow up and help me.  I really need help and I am running out of patience. 
    Soon I will be saying "Goodbye Microsoft!  Goodbye Dell!  Hello Apple!" 
    Help please! 
    Thank you,
    SMTosi

    As per your description, seems the installation of Office have got completely corrupted. I would suggest you to completely remove Office 2010 from your computer and then reinstall it.
    For how to remove/uninstall Office from your computer, I would suggest you to use Microsoft Fix It tool:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971179
    After uninstalling Office, please restart your computer then try a reinstallation. If you don't have the Office 2010 installation source or DVD, please go to this website to get Office 2010 installation package: 
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/microsoft-office-2010-backup-FX101853122.aspx (you might need to provide the product key of Office 2010)
    Hope this helps. Thanks a lot for your patience.

  • ITunes10.5.2  and MS Office Home and Business 2010 (running on MS Windows 7 32-bit SP1): can you help me please?

    I've a PC running W7 32-bit SP1 and Office Home and Business 2010. The issue is that iTunes last version (10.5.2) doesn't work with Outlook 2010 and vice versa. With iTunes installed Outlook 2010 doesn't open itself.
    No error message, but the program doesn't open.
    I tried the restore, but nothing even so.
    Either-or: or iTunes or Outlook. It's not possible. This is a seriou bug
    I've really tried  all suggestions found in this bolg, but in vain.
    Can someone from Apple help me to fix this bug please?

    Hi guys, thanks for your responses.
    What is this vboxnetflt for? Which modules are the essential modules for virtualbox? What I mean is: do those nice features like mouse point integration, full screen supportment etc... rely on vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp?
    What I have in my configuration file is:
    MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
    #MOD_BLACKLIST=() #deprecated
    MODULES=(vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp)
    I think vboxnetadp is used for networkiing. and vboxnetflt sounds like network filtering stuff. Can someone please confirm me? I think the problem was the sequence of upgrading. Firstly it updated the kernel and then installed the new version of virtualbox. I think if it could install the new version of virtualbox first and then the kernel, it would go without any problem, just my opinion as I said.
    Let's keep tracked on this. Maybe someone will find a solution before virtualbox developers :-)

  • Exchange Online Plan 1 use with Office Home and Business 2013 License

    Question: Does the Office Home & Business 2013 Outlook work properly with Exchange Online Plan 1?  (are there limitations?)
    As a farm dealership needing 44 licenses (very light Office product use except email), I'm struggling with the sustaining cost of Office365 Bus Prem.  I've pretty much settled on buying Outlook 2013 instead of any subscription models.  Office Home
    and Business list price is $219 making a one time purchase cost $9639. I can do that once. (O365BP is $7,920 annual).   Outlook 2013 stand-a-lone will run me around $3500 once plus $2112 annual.  I'd really like the full office package.  I wish
    the pricing worked out better for rural, light use businesses.

  • Is Office Home and Business 2013 fully compatible with Sharepoint Online (Office 365)?

    My client recently upgraded 3 Windows 7 PCs (2-32 & 1-64-bit OS) from Office 2007 32-bit (which was actually working fine against Exchange/SharePoint Online) to Office Home and Business 2013 (32-bit)
    Now, for all 3 PCs, while Office 2013 Word/Excel can open, check out/in, and save SharePoint Online files, there is ALWAYS a 2 minute delay in closing the file which is apparently waiting for the Local Security Authority call to return. This seems
    to indicate an issue related to SharePoint security on the client side.
      Problem Event Name: AppHangXProcB1
      Application Name:        
    WINWORD.EXE
      Application Version:    
    15.0.4657.1000
      Waiting on Application Name: 
    lsass.exe:lsasspirpc
    This is the Local Security Authority Security Support Provider Interface Remote Procedure Call (LSA SSPI RPC)
    My client has 66 licenses for SharePoint Online (Plan 2) and 73 Exchange Online (Plan 1) "stand alone" services. The same failure is happening on 3 Win 7 PCs. All of which I've carefully reviewed against the MS Office trouble shooting guides (start
    Windows OS w/out non-MS services, Word/Excel safe mode w/out add-ons, O365 readiness checks, Office repair, etc.). We have PCs running Win 7 (32 & 64-bit) w/Office 365 ProPlus & Office Professional Plus 2013 that work fine. it's JUST these 3 Win 7
    PCs that were upgraded from Office 2007 to Office Home and Business 2013 that have the 2 min. SharePoint file close time.
    Can you please confirm that Office Home and Business 2013 is compatible w/SharePoint Online
    at least for Excel and Word?
    The "slow close" problem can be demonstrated on multiple site collections/sub sites and w/Excel & Word docs in doc libs and lists
    After many hours capturing information, following the MS Office trouble shooting guides, and repairing the Office install, I've had no luck in resolving this.While Word/Excel will eventually close SharePoint Online files after about
    2 minutes, this is certainly unacceptable. Otherwise, locally stored files close normally and new files were created by the Office 2013 Excel/Word for this testing.
    Any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated.  

    Hi raygabe,
    I couldn't find the document mentioned there is any compatibility between Office365 SharePoint online and Office Home and Business 2013 version, I would recommend that you check if the issue could be reproduced on other Win7 machines installed with Office
    Home and Business 2013 installed directly instead of upgrading from Office2007, see if issue is related to Office application upgrade.
    I also recommend that you post this issue on our dedicated Office365 SharePoint online forum and Office 2013 forum for a better assistance with more experts regarding this issue from the following links.

  • Microsoft Office Home and Business Edition 2013

     Dear Team,
    We are planning to procure microsoft office home and business edition 2013. We want to procure 50- Microsoft office home and business edition. Please let us know if there is  any limitations in the licensing part as you have spoken to one of your
    executive in microsoft. As per him we procure as many as per our requirement, it is legal for 200 users.
    Thanks,
    Rakesh Kumar  

    Hi,
    I haven't found any other limitation in the licensing part except you should install Office on one PC at a time.
    If you want to purchase 50 copies, I'm pretty sure there's no problem. But you may have to maintain 50 licence keys along with boxes and invoice, be careful and don't mess them up :)

  • Issues with Office Home and Business 2013 Online redeem

    Hi Guys,
    I am wondering if anyone has experienced this issue:
    We purchased some office licenses via local suppliers, they're medialess, and it's just an email with redeem site's URL and product key.
    If i click on the Download link to redeem, it forward to Office Online website and request a Microsoft account to login. We then login use a company based microsoft account. Then what it shows is list of Office 2013 Home and Business items with "Install"
    button underneath. I then started look for the one with the right product key, but none of them match the one I've been given from supplier's email.
    If i use an installation media, then type in the product key, it will show Redeem Online button again, if I click on it, it ask me to login, once I logged in, it shows list of Office 2013 Home and Business with numbers in the () like (1), (2), (3)....etc.
    No matter which way i use, if i continue the installation of selecting any of them in the list, I have to go through Microsoft's telephone activation. Often, we have customer's office 2013 installation corrupted and suddenly none of the office program can
    be opened, and we have to uninstall / reinstall office and redo activation and etc.
    I am wondering if anyone has experienced this, and whether this is something local supplier's issue or it's something Microsoft should be improving. Right now, we have to order the normal retail version with media, rather than this online version in order
    to avoid drama, but for those computers which already installed with online version, we have having issue from time to time.
    Any help or comment will be much appreciated!
    Thank you very much

    Hi,
    Usually, you can download and activate Office with the Microsoft Account that associated with your Office 2013 Home and Business subscription on Office Online site.
    For example:
    https://support.office.com/en-ie/article/Install-Office-365-Home-Personal-or-University-7a28382b-7015-4b5a-9d9b-650d15742c95
    I would suggest you contact your local supplier directly, they should give you the detailed instructions on how to do this.
    Regards,

    It's recommended to download and install
    Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
    programs.

  • Home and Business Outlook Archiving

    I believe to have Outlook mailbox archiving and retention period using Exchange 2010 I need Outlook separate from the Home and Business Version of Outlook that I have currently installed which is a mixture of 2010 Outlook with Home and Business and 2013.
    Can i just uninstall Outlook and install a stand alone version? or should i juts upgrade Office to a business version?
    Any help with this would be ideal.

    Hi,
    The Personal Archive and retention policies features require a Microsoft Exchange Online account or Microsoft Exchange Server account, as well as a Microsoft Exchange Server Enterprise Client Access License (CAL) and specific Microsoft Outlook licenses.
    The short answer to your question is Yes, the following retail licenses are supported:
    Outlook 2013 stand-alone
    Outlook 2010 stand-alone
    Outlook 2010 included with Microsoft Office Professional Plus Subscription
    Outlook 2007 stand-alone
    Outlook 2007 included with Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007

  • Windows 8.1, Office Home and Business 2013: This file can't be previewed because of an error in Microsoft ........... previewer

    Previewer for office files is not working from the same application: i.e. can't preview Excel files when attempting to open one from Excel, same with Word and PowerPoint. I can preview all files from Outlook, and, funny, I can preview files other than Excel
    from the Excel previewer, files other than Word from the Word previewer, etc.
    I can preview all files from Explorer.
    I've looked at previous threads and there are some with the same problem dating back to 2009, all UNSOLVED.
    This is a new lap top, new Windows 8.1 and just-installed Office 2013, and 8.1 and Office have these persistent glitches.
    Very frustrating to say the least.

    Hi CALQ59,
    Unfortunately, the article you were referred to, by Melon, is simply an article that is explaining a behaviour (some would say bug) in Windows and the Office previewer system. There appears to be a limitation that occurs whereby, if you have an instance
    of the Office application open, for which you would like to preview something in an Explorer window, it will not be able to preview the file. To be able to preview the file, this article states that you "must open another instance of the program to preview
    the document." So, either open another instance of the Office application in question or quit any instances of the Office application in question and then preview the file of that same type in your Explorer windows to your heart's content. That is of
    course until the next time you are working on an Office document of some sort and the previewer has a hissy fit!
    This is an incredibly lame bug/limitation that exists in Windows/Office. It's of no current commercial concern to Microsoft to fix it, so we just have to work around it until the problem bubbles to the surface of the development team's bug-fix to-do list,
    if ever.
    Unfortunately, the way software development is going these days it's all moving towards providing Minimum Viable Product (MVP - Yes, this is a term software developers use) for the same cost as a fully functional product. The bar on software QA is falling,
    but the price isn't.
    Cheers,

  • Lightroom conflicting with Microsoft Office Home and Business 2010

    This is a third posting on what is the same topic/experience.

    Hal and Beat were very helpful at that time.
    Quick background and current situtation (after some 5 plus weeks)
    - Shortly after ver 3.6 was released, Lightroom 3.6 began crashing while in the DEVELOP module after 30 minutes plus or minus.
    By ``Crashing``, I mean the computer shuts down, no blue screen, and reboots to screen recommending START WINDOWS NORMALLY
    - Computer is 6 months old, Computer shop replaced, in sequence with my testing,
              Video Card
              Memory
              CPU
    - crashing continued, so they installed a temporay new C drive to see what would happen.
    - With LR only running, all was fine so Win 7 (home premium) was re-installed on my C drive and I stared re-installing the software.
    With each installation LR was tested twice for 60-90 minutes, before proceeding to next software install
    RESTORE POINT created after FIREFOX ``ìnstalled``
    - Lightroom 3.0 installed
         tests run
    - Lightroom 3.6 installed
         tests run
    RESTORE POINT created
    - Photoshop CS5 installed
         tests run
    RESTORE POINT created
    - MS Office installed, some issues with setting up OUTLOOK
    - drive permissions fixed
         tests run and LR crashed
    -Uninstalled Office
    - crashes continued (much quicker)
    - worked back through RESTORE POINTS and eventually ended up at inital RESTORE POINT
    Then worked back through the installs again (and restore points)
    - No crashes until I installed MS Office.
    - I have backed up to the RESTORE POINT before Office install and still crashing.
    At this point I am ready to set up Lightoom in a Virtual machine within the computer and run everything else normally. (not sure I said that correctly, but that was what I thought my technical assistant said)
    But before doing that, has anyone else had this problem and solved it ???
    Thank you
