Problem opening Keynote 08 created PPT in Windows Office 2007

After creating my presentation in iWork08 Keynote I save it first in its native format, and then in PPT. When I try to open the PPT in Office 2007 on a WIndows machine, all I get is an empty Window. If I open it in Office 2003, no problems. If I then save it in Office XP/2003 format, Office 2007 can then read it without issues. Has anyone else seen this behaviour, and if you have, have you been able to resolve it at all?

I've had the exact same problem running Vista and Office 2007 except I don't have the luxury of having another computer with Office 2003. Does anyone know of a fix? This totally makes buying windows useless as a way to check ppts that we export from Keynote. Can apple fix this?

Problem with Courier font since upgrading to Office 2007

Hi everybody,
Since we upgraded to Office 2007, one of our Acrobat users (he is the only person in the firm really using Acrobat actually) has problems when exporting Word documents to PDF.
So he is using Word 2007 and Acrobat Pro 9 (included in the CS4), he is modifying documents that were created with earlier versions of Word and the problem he has is since he has upgraded to Office 2007 (he was already using Acrobat Pro 9 without problem with Word 2003), text in the Courier font is replaced by those rectangles like unknown characters :
So I would like to know what has changed in Word 2007 that makes it that the Courier font cannot be exported to a PDF (from what I read it is one of the standard fonts always included in PDF readers), if I can change some settings to fix it without modifying all the Word documents or at least get a warning when it is going to happen.
Indeed the user's biggest concern is that he doesn't even receive a warning that that specific font won't be output correctly so he might change only some text or images in the Word document and export it to PDF and he will still have to check the whole document to make sure there was no Courier text that didn't make it through.
P.S. He is using the Adobe PDF printer to do the export.
Thanks.
Jonathan V.

Actually, I have a bit more information to share :
In the PDF files created before upgrading to Office 2007 (with Word 2003), I can see that Courier - Type 1 - ANSI is partially embedded (I thought it was supposed to be one of the base/system fonts).
I tried to export one of the Word documents affected again, replacing part of the Courier text with the Courier New font to see if it would work, the text in Courier New is showing correctly while the text in Courier still shows as squares.
When I check the fonts in the PDF file, CourierNewPSMT - TrueType - ANSI, is embedded (not partially ??) and Courier - TrueType - ANSI is partially embedded.
So I don't understand why Courier was embedded as Type 1 (but it worked) and now it supposedly embeds a TrueType Courier font that doesn't seem to work.
Again, the major problem is that there is no warning that the font won't output correctly, so you have to check the whole document again or you might end up with some parts unreadable.

Problems with EXCELSIUS 2008 after upgrading MS-Office 2007 to SP2 ??

Hi Community,
has anyone experienced how EXCELSIUS 2008 works after upgrading MS-Office 2007 to the new SP2 ??
(including "2007 MS Office Suite Service Pack2 (SP2)" and "MS Office Compatibility Pack Service Pack 2 (SP2)" and "Security Updates for MS Office System 2007 (KB969618)" and "Update for 2007 MS Office System (KB967642)")
We're going to upgrade our PCs and need to know about any possible trouble/problems with our mission critical applications (and EXCELSIUS was identified as one of them
Thanks in advance ...
Peter

I'm not sure if MS Office 2007 SP2 will actually cause any problem, but according to the supported platform list for Xcelsius 2008 SP1, MS Office 2007 SP2 is not listed (Office 2007 is).
Other Tools
=============
Office      (Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Word)
Windows Office 2003
Windows Office 2003 SP1
Windows Office 2003 SP2
Windows Office XP SP3
Windows Office 2007
Fix packs typically do not include additional platform support, so I believe that 2007 SP2 is still not supported as of FP3. I'm pretty sure though that Office 2007 SP2 will be supported in the very near future...

Problem opening excel file in new window

Hi,
I have a JSF application that sends an Excel file back to the user.
My backing bean has a method that uses POI to generate the excel file and then write it to the servlet response.
This works fine if I call the method from a command button, but this displays the file in the current browser window, whereas I want to open the file in a new window.
I added an onclick javascript call to a command button which does a window.open() to open a jsp in a new window. The jsp contains an empty view, as I'm using an on-load phase listener to make the call to my backing bean method which should send the excel file when the file opens.
However, when the window opens, I get an IE error message saying 'Could not open xxx.faces', and then an excel error message saying 'Could not open xxx.xls. This may be because the file does not exist, or the file is already open etc etc'
However, I found that if the popup window goes through a servlet (which just forwards to the jsp page) instead of going to the jsp directly, it works like a charm.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this would be very much appreciated. If I can't fix it I'll just stick with the servlet approach, although it just seems a bit messy.
(I'm using IE6 SP2, tomcat 5.5 btw)
Cheers,
Stuart

I'm doing a similar thing, but I use commandLink to lauch the window. CommandLink has the "target" attribute that I set to _blank. As you would expect, that opens up the page in the new window.

Login prompt appearing when opening Excel Files - SharePoint 2010 SP1 - Office 2007

hi,
i have 2 sites on the same server, 1 at Port 80 and 1 at port 8300
https://contoso.com
https://contoso.com:8300
Both are under same AD and credentials.
But when users on 8300 port site, tries to open office files such as Word or Excel.
In read only mode, login credentials screen comes atleast 3 times again and again, although users are using same and correct credentials
but when clicked as edit mode, then file just opens.
I have saves their credentials locally using credentials vault under user accounts.
while suggestions on this page were already there:
http://sharepoint.licomputersource.com/2011/04/sharepoint-2010-prompts-for-credentials-when-opening-office-documents/
I have added https under Excel trusted File Locations under CA
I have correct AAM mapping under CA.
Please guide how to fix this. Thank you
Server: Sharepoint 2010 SP1
End Users: Office 2007 and Office 2010

Hi,
For Login prompt appearing, please refer to:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943280. also, please make sure you have already add this site into trusted sites zone in IE since after this settings, you will not get the read only/edit popup windows. you can change different computers to test
to check if the office settings has some special. in addition, please keep one version of office product.
For he excel files open in browser and then have a option to open in Excel, please go to library settings > advanced settings > Opening Documents in the Browser to check if both sites have the same settings. also, maybe you miss click the open in word/
open in excel button after open in brwser.

Problems opening PDFs created with Acrobat in TFS

Hi,
I know this might not really be a supported issue, but any thoughts you might have would be appreciated!
I've been creating PDFs using Primo PDF and a trial of Acrobat X. I then put them on TFS / MS Visual Studio 2000.
So, when I try to open a PDF I've checked in, the ones I've created in Primo are fine and launch whereas the ones created in Acrobat won't open and an error message about Inconsistent Line Endings is displayed.
It says:
"The line endings are not consistent. Do you want to normalize them....
Line ending: Windows (CR LF)"
The PDFs DO work when I open them from the normal place in the windows file system. However, when I try to "normalize" them by clicking yes, it breaks them completely.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening and what I can do to fix it? I'm assuming it must be something to do with the conversion or document settings, because this only happens to PDFs created with Acrobat.

In Acrobat X, SharePoint Integration has been added which allows users to check-out/check-in the document from within Acrobat. Clicking the file from document library in Internet Explorer opens the file in Acrobat. The configuration that needs to be done on the SharePoint server is explained in the following KB article in section 11.1.

Please try these and let us know if you face any problems after this.

Problems opening files created on photoshop 7 on a PC

files are taking a long time to open...even when they are not high resolution files
can somebuddy help :(

Are you using the Photoshop SDK, a programmer tool? If so, please
focus the question so the people here know how you are using it. If
you aren't using the Photoshop SDK, I recommend asking in the general
Photoshop (Windows or Mac) forum.

Problem opening device from Java on Windows XP

Hi,
I am having trouble opening the TUN device (it is a virtual network device developed by the OpenVPN project - http://openvpn.net) from Java on Windows.
I found from the registry that the key for the device on my machine is
{5998ABF4-70CC-4B8C-9CBF-F2B985BAD4A2}.
From elsewhere on the web, I found that on Windows this device can be
addressed as \\.\{5998ABF4-70CC-4B8C-9CBF-F2B985BAD4A2}.tap
I then wrote up a short C code,
char *tun_dev_name = "\\\\.\\{5998ABF4-70CC-4B8C-9CBF-F2B985BAD4A2}.tap";
FILE *f = fopen(tun_dev_name, "rw");
fclose(f);
HANDLE h = CreateFile(tun_dev_name, GENERIC_WRITE | GENERIC_READ, 0, 0, \
OPEN_EXISTING, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM | FILE_FLAG_OVERLAPPED, 0);
CloseHandle(h);In the above code, the FILE* returned is non-NULL and the HANDLE returned is positive.
However, when I try to do the same in Java using the code below,
String tun_dev_name =
new String("\\\\.\\{5998ABF4-70CC-4B8C-9CBF-F2B985BAD4A2}.tap");
RandomAccessFile raf = new RandomAccessFile(tun_dev_name, "rw");
[]/code]
a "java.io.IOException: Invalid argument" is thrown. The same exception is thrown when I try to open either FileInputStream or FileOutputStream instead of RandomAccessFile.
In fact, when I invoke the above C code as a native method from within Java,
though a valid HANDLE is still returned, the FILE* returned is now NULL. I
have tried giving all permissions to my codebase using Java's policytool, but that didn't help. BTW, I ran all this code on Windows XP from cygwin.
Clearly this problem isn't with OpenVPN because I'm able to open the device using both fopen and CreateFile from C. Please let me know if one of you knows what the problem could be and what I need to do to fix it. In case, this is not the right forum for this question, kindly let me know which other forum I should pose this question on.
Thanks!
Harsha

I am sorry but looks like somehow some text got missed out from my message.
After the C code and before the Java code, I had intended to mention that when that C code is compiled and run independently, both the fopen and CreateFile calls work fine, with a non-NULL FILE* and a valid HANDLE being returned, respectively.
And as I have already mentioned, when I invoke the C code as a native method from within Java, the CreateFile still works but the fopen fails returning NULL.
Sorry for missing that out. Hope somebody will be able to help me out.
Thanks!

Firefox will not open or create a new window if a link is clicked in Thunderbird or any other software

Hello,
I'm using version 3.6.13
I'm on a Windows 7 platform
In Thunderbird or any other software that provides a hyperlink, clicking on the link will not activate Firefox if it's not running, or it won't open a new window if it is running.
I have disabled all addons, restarted, and it still doesn't work.
I have not installed any new devices, such as printers, for at least a year or more.
I use Avast for protection since I bought this PC
I do have Spybot resident.
I would provide a list of all my installed software, but I don't know how to get the list.
Thank you,
Robert

I'm using FF 4.1 and TB 3.1.10 and am having the same problem.

Problem opening files stored in a windows server using kde/smblcient

i use archlinux64/kde 4.3.3 at work. my laptop is conneted to a network having a windows 2003 server. All the network shares(if i remember correctly are ntfs) are on this server, so i use the smb:// protocol through dolphin and konqueror(as far as i know smbclient is used on the background).
the server is full of pdf and doc files and my problem is that i cannot access these files directly, getting an error saying that it is not supported by the os, so every time i have to copy the file locally and then open it.
any suggestions to avoid copying the files locally?

i want to avoid mounting my shares over fstab, because i use a laptop and there is no permanent network connection which makes the whole thing more complexed(order of daemons, when netfs should be started etc).
i read that a possible solutuon is changing the command of openoffice writer from oowriter %U to oowriter %f, which makes it copy the file to /tmp .
I cannot test it right now, cause im at home, but it seems that it may solve my problem.
As I mentioned in my previous post, you can set "noauto" in your fstab entries and mount selectively the shares you want with "sudo mount /share". That way you won't have to mess with daemons' order etc. The solution you found with openoffice reminds me of the problems I had with mplayer playing files through samba - I had to add a parameter like the one you post, but still I couldn't get it to work properly as the files had to get downloaded locally first. The only way to use my shares as local drives was to use the fstab.

Having problems opening photoshop 7.0 in windows 7

I installed photoshop 7.0 on Windows 7 (64 bit). When I try to open it I get the following prompt:" Could not initialize Photoshop, Scratch disks are full". I contacted Microsoft, they were not able to resolve the issue, they suggest I contact Adobe and get back to them, if problem is not resolved. Is there a fix for this problem?

try resetting your preferences by holding down shift-ctrl-alt while starting ps. you'll see a confirmation dialog if done correctly.
if that fails, use a hd less than 1 tb
if that fails, uninstall and reinstall using compatibility mode (with a compatibile os).

Problem opening ODBC data source in Windows 2003

I am having difficulty opening a ODBC data source in SQL
Server 2000 running on Windows 2003 using ColdFusion MX7 (it works
cleanly on the same database on windows 2000 server). Anyone has
any ideas.

Here it is, there is an issue with our Search functionality with the new SDN:
Symptom
When setting location on a Crystal Reports XI Report using the Progress OpenEdge ODBC Driver in Crystal Reports 2008 or Crystal Reports 2011 get “Some tables could not be replaced, as no match was found in the new data source. Please specify the table required for any unmodified tables.”
Environment
Crystal Reports 2008 or 2011
Progress OpenEdge ODBC Driver
Reproducing the Issue
Open a Crystal Report created in CR XI Report using the Progress OpenEdge ODBC Driver in Crystal Reports 2008 or 2011
Set location to a new ODBC Data Source
Get error "some tables could not be replaced, as no match was found in the new data source. Please specify the table required for any unmodified tables.”
Cause
Crystal Reports XI only creates aliases for tables with special characters or duplicate names.
Crystal Reports 2008 introduces a change which requires aliases for all tables.
Aliases are not created when doing a Set Location on the whole data source.
If a Customer has hundreds of reports they cannot set location of each table and fix the aliases.
Resolution
Upgrade to Crystal Reports 2011 Support Pack 02 or higher
Under registry key [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\Database\ODBC] create string UseTableNameAsAlias and set it to PGPRO1019.DLL, PGOE1022.DLL. Registry file is attached.
Keywords
Set Location
Progress ODBC
Crystal Reports 2008 2011

Problem opening documents created in Pages

i have the new pages installed on work mac mini. created a document at work. tried to open at home on macbook pro on new pages program but it won't open!!! help!!!

1. Is it possible you installed from a demo installer and your 30 day trial period is up, when it goes into Read Only mode?
2. Where and what was your purchased disk?
3. Where are you saving to?
4. Have you tried saving somewhere else eg an external hard drive and see what happens then?
5. The auto-saving issue with Pages 5.2.2 could be problems with iCloud and online access.
