Sharepoint 2007, Office 2007, and 64-bit Internet Explorer support

Hi All,
I have an issue editing documents on our SharePoint 2007 intranet.  When using 64-bit IE, and when I choose "Edit in Microsoft Office Word" I get the following error:   ‘Edit Document’ requires a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible application and Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or greater.    This does not happen with 32-bit IE.
I am working on deploying Windows 7 and I am seeing this on a clean installation of Windows 7 Enterprise x64.  The only software I am installing is Office Enterprise 2007.  The Office 2007 installation includes the Office Tools > Windows SharePoint Services Support.   Installing SP1 and SP2 for Office does not fix the problem.   I can duplicate this on multiple computers.
I know 64-bit IE is a level 2 supported browser according to this article (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263526.aspx ), but shouldn't editing documents be allowed for it?   Perhaps I am misinterpreting the article somehow?   If this is the case, could someone point out where I am going wrong?
Thanks,
Andrew

Thanks but copying the dll over and restarting IE also did not work.  I also restarted the computer to be sure.  I tried these additional things:
I tried re-registering the dll but I got this error:  The module "owssupp.dll" was loaded but the call DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80070716.
I also removed the dll and ran the Microsoft Office Diagnostics utility.  It found and corrected one problem (it added the dll back), but this did not fix my problem.
To elaborate more, I noticed that I CAN check out a document and then use the "Edit in Microsoft Word" link to open the document.  However, when I try to save the document, SharePoint thinks the document is read-only.  So there is still some compatibility issues going on there.
So I did some more digging and although I couldn't find it documented, the feature that allows this to work is an ActiveX control.  I compared the browser add-ons in the 32bit version of IE to the 64 bit version and what would you know, the add-ons (SharePointOpenDocuments and SharePoint Stssync Handler - both controlled by owssupp.dll) were not part of the browser... and there didn't appear a way to install them. 
According to the document I linked in my original post, ActiveX controls are not supported in level 2 browsers such as 64 bit Internet Explorer... it could be this is one of the ActiveX controls that is not supported.  For now that is my answer unless anyone else has more ideas.

    I can no longer send or respond to email from my Firefox browser. I closed and sent from Internet explorer and it works fine. What changed? The only thing different this morning, I downloaded Adobe uprade?

    I had this hotmail issue myself a while back. I Googled, scanned MS website, scanned MSN website, visited forums, couldn't figure it out. I tried Firefox and Opera and even changed the Opera mask setting from Opera to Internet Explorer. Nothing worked. My best guess was that I was signing on (with the new MSN Live as opposed to MSN Hotmail - the OLD interface) with the "Remember me on this computer?" box checked. I now make sure it is un-checked (which is not the default) and hotmail lets me in.
    Not exactly sure if that is the real remedy, but thot I'd throw the story your way just in case...

  • I cannot watch yahoo videos using your service; switch to internet explorer to watch; do I need to delete your serverice and switch to internet explorer?

    I cannot watch yahoo videos using your service; switch to internet explorer to watch; do I need to delete your serverice and switch to internet explorer? I would like that question answered first.

    Hi kaylenmar, I assume videos play normally for you on YouTube and other sites.
    There have been several long threads about Yahoo! videos and what might make them different from other sites. The upshot is that different people have found different problems and different solutions. For example, extensions that filter or block ads or prevent tracking can cause problems, as can the click-to-play feature.
    One approach that worked for most people who mentioned trying it is to switch to Firefox 24, which is in the final two weeks of its beta testing period. You can expect a few more rough edges with a beta version than with the released version. However, it might be worth it if you don't like switching browsers to watch Yahoo videos.
    I suggest making a backup of your Firefox settings folder before installing Firefox 24. This article has tips on doing that: [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]].
    Firefox 24 beta is available here: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/beta/

  • Setup program crashes when you try to install a 2007 Office on a 64-bit version of Windows 7

    Hello there,
    I have a Dell Vostro machine with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit installed on it. It came with Office 2010 preinstalled on it. About 6 months ago I removed Office 2010 and installed Office 2007 with no problems. Yesterday a user messed up her office so badly
    that I had to uninstalled it in an attempt to reinstall to ensure that all missing files exist. A few seconds after selecting my options, the installation program crashes. I tried it with a few different users logged in to make sure it's something related
    to the profile of the user I was logged in as.
    Just to be clear, this is the same Office 2007 installation that was installed correctly on it about 6 months ago and the same product key.
    Why is this happening and how can I fix this issue without having to restore the computer to its default state?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    Please refer to this kb, use Microsoft Fix it 50154 to uninstall Office 2007 completely:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218/en-us
    Then try installing again.
    We can also perform a clean boot to install, which gets rid of the background program conflicts:

  • Remove Office 2010 purchase message from internet explorer

    I have a notebook and desktop computer and I use Windows Microsoft Office 2007, running Word, Excel, Publisher, Access etc, on both notebook and desktop computers with Norton 360 
    antivirus, both have used this system for the last 4 years. 
    Both computers came preloaded with Microsoft Office 2010 starter for Word and Excel which have never been used on either computer.
    For the last couple of weeks every time I try to open any document on the notebook (this does not happen on the desktop) from Internet Explorer I get a Microsoft 2010 message saying ‘the Office product needed to open this file is not installed’ and offers
    3 solutions:  Activate office 2010; go online and purchase Office 2010; Try Office 2010 free for a limited time. 
    I have not used any of those options as I do not want to use Office 2010 and wish to continue with Office 2007, however there is no option to do so. 
    I can access Office 2007 manually on the computer but cannot open any document emailed or available online.
    How do I get rid of this annoying notice coming up and et back to being able to use 2007 which has worked well for the previous years? 

    Hi,
    Do you install any updates before getting this error message?
    According to your description, file type associations is missing maybe caused by installing September 2013 Update. After installing this update, you may be unable to open files by double-click then or
    the file type icons have changed.
    If so, we can try these methods to fix this issue.
    Right-click the file, select Open with > Choose default program, to
    restore the file type association to the correct Microsoft Office application.
    In some cases, you may need to repair Office 2010 from Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    For more detail reference:

  • How to restore Adobe Flash Player for 32 bit Internet Explorer of Windows 8.1 64 bit?

    Default Windows 8.1 64 bit install runs Internet Explorer 11 32 bit and all it's features, but slight disturbance for install of integrated applications runs user in such a trouble of loopback which he or she cannot escape, because problem application doesn't
    runs for Windows or for it's programs, won't show it's Windows existence but wouldn't allow install of it's new software, I could only install complete new program for Windows program to run desired object.
    I am using Rocket browser for Internet Explorer 11 32 bit because of problem of Adobe Flash Player uninstall or install.
    But how many applications do I have to search, trial and if at all successful install for use because of problems of such applications of Windows?

    As we have reviewed in other threads on the same topic. Internet Explorer for Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 make use of separate management and content processes which on the desktop in a 64 bit environment are 64 bit and 32 bit respectively.
    This is explained here on the IEInternals blog.
    In most scenarios, the multiple processes are entirely transparent to the browsing experience. 32 bit addons continue to load and interact as expected with the content processes in which they are run and web scripts which detect browser architecture continue
    to function, detecting a 32 bit browser.
    In the Modern UI experience, the scenario is even more transparent as support for addons such as Flash and JavaScript are integrated into the 64 bit processes and updated through standard Windows Updates.

    Answer for problem simply Got it !
    Internet Explorer 11 needs websites 'Trusted', add all pages in need of running addons, and rest Windows operating system handles.
    Now I am listening to songs on Windows Media Player (T3 skin) from a website which earlier messaged Adobe Flash Player not installed refusing playing songs, but now running programs without installing Adobe Flash Player.

  • Hyperlink in MS office to pdf opens in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox

    I have some documents (Excel, Word) that contain hyperlinks.
    Hyperlinks to websites (www.***.com or http://***.htm) nicely open in Firefox. But links to online pdf's (http://www.***.com/***.pdf) all open in Internet Explorer.
    How can I change this?
    I'm using Windows XP pro, Firefox 3.0.5, Office 2003, Adobe Reader 9.0.0

    I have the same problem (roughly) - I have PDF hyperlinks in an Excel spreadsheet and, when clicked, instead of them opening directly in Acrobat (or via Firefox, my default browser), they open via IE. Regular HTML links in the Excel spreadsheet open in Firefox.
    I have enabled the '''Block PDF files' access to all web sites''' option under ''Trust Manager'' category in the Adobe Reader ''Preferences'' tab.
    I have also disabled the '''Adobe PDF Link Helper''' Extension in the ''Manage Add-ons'' tab in IE.
    Obviously, neither of these settings made any difference.

  • Scripting error when using 64 bit internet explorer

    Could you please give me a solution to the following:
    Laptop  HP Pavillion dv7-3112sa  Windows 7
    Printer  HP Photosmart B209
    Wireless connection Netgear DGND 3300 v2
    When I use internet explorer 64 bit and try to print, I get a message "Scripting Error" and it will not print.
    This is OK on 32 bit.
    I cannot update my HP software because I lose wireless communications altogether and have to do a restore to get it to work again.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Scripting errors are related to how the website behaves with a browser.
    In this case, it is printing script that is having an issue and it appears to be with the 64bit Internet Explorer since it works fine with Internet Explorer 32bit.
    Review this article from Microsoft regarding this issue.
    You have already found the best resolution to this issue:  Using 32bit Internet Explorer.
    64bit web browsing is still a very small portion of web sites and very few fully support the 64bit browsing experience.  I highly recommend using a 32bit web browser for viewing websites as this will give you the best compatibility as every website still supports 32bit browsing, but not all sites are fully compatible with 64bit browsers.

  • IE 10 Windows 7 64 Bit: Internet Explorer (No Add-ons) does not run

    Many of our Windows 7 laptops started having IE crashes dues to:
    Description:
    Faulting application name: IEXPLORE.EXE, version: 10.0.9200.17088, time stamp: 0x53eedc10
    Faulting module name: urlmon.dll, version: 10.0.9200.17088, time stamp: 0x53eedc44
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Fault offset: 0x00038a99
    Faulting process id: 0x128c
    Faulting application start time: 0x01cfe29e05a67b00
    Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE
    Faulting module path: C:\windows\syswow64\urlmon.dll
    To troubleshoot, we have tried resetting IE 10 using Internet Options and rebooting.  Does not reliably fix this and even when it occasionally does, it is not a permanent fix.
    I have also tried running Internet Explorer using the shortcut for Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
    When I click on the shortcut, there is an an hourglass for a second or two and then it just goes away.  The no add-ons mode never works and doesn't show an error.  It just does nothing.
    iexplore.exe -extoff does not work or do anything
    iexplorer.exe runs
    iexplore -nohome runs
    How can we find the cause?

    Faulting module name: urlmon.dll, version: 10.0.9200.17088
    Faulting module path: C:\windows\syswow64\urlmon.dll
    That's actually a crash in a 32-bit tab task.  A  Stack Back Trace may give more clues.  (Once provided by drwsn32.log; now required to be extracted from a dump of the crashing thread.)
    iexplore.exe -extoff does not work or do anything
    iexplore -nohome runs
    Try combining them.  If they both work together, this may be saying something about your Home page.  Then you may want to try changing that, e.g. try  about:blank  so you don't go near the TIF.  OR just try  Run... (e.g. press
    Win-R and enter:)
    iexplore.exe  -nohome  -extoff  about:blank
    Good luck

  • Flash video, .4fv files in particular won't play in Firefox - Any one have any suggesstions? I already updated my Flash player and plays in Internet Explorer and Chrome

    If you look at this page in Firefox, http://www.vpi-corp.com/Empower-Demo/index-iframe.asp, you will see that the html portion of the page loads, and if you right click in the white area in the middle, the Flash is present as well. I can view this page correctly in Internet Explorer and Chrome. I have tried to export the movie as far back as Flash 7.0, but will not resolve. I have also been able to see this video for a while in Firefox, but then mysteriously went away. Any help would be appreciated. I suspect some patch to the programming on this page will be necessary.

    That f4v file is send as text/plain, maybe that is causing it

  • Why do Adobe 9 and Windows 7 Internet explorer not play well?

    I use Windows 7 and Adobe came with the new Windows 7 platform however, it has not worked properly since I have owned it for 30 days. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe 9.
    When trying to download from internet explorer I am timed out and receive an error message " there is a problem with Adobe Reader/Acrobat, please try again later."  This message also closes internet explorer down.
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks

    Have you updated AA9 (that is Acrobat)? There are several updates that are typically needed. You did not indicate the version level and you may only have 9.0.0. If you are talking about Reader, then you need to ask in the Reader forum. Adobe is not a product, but the company with many products.
