SharePoint 2010 Edit in Microsoft Word and Save back to SharePoint not working

Hi, I'm using SharePoint 2010 for document collaboration. I have bunch of MS Word and Excel 2010 documents loaded on the site's document library. I'm having trouble saving the documents back to SharePoint. I click on the documents "Edit in Microsoft
Excel" or "Edit in Microsoft Word" the document opens, I work on it, then I click "Save" but it wants to save to local documents folder, not SharePoint.

Hi,
According to your description, documents cannot be saved back to SharePoint Library when editing in Microsoft Office desktop application.
I tried to reproduce this issue in my environment, it turned out that all work as expected.
You can try the steps as below to see if the issue still exists:
1. Enable the local webclient service on the machine.
2. Make sure that “Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe location“ is unselected in Trust Center settings in Microsoft Word and Excel 2010.
Here is a link with more details about enabling the local webclient service on the machine:

    I tried troubleshooting plugins, none appeared to be causing the problem.
    I installed 36.0.1, but no difference. Went back to 36.0.4, still no change.
    I ran a malware check with Malwarebytes, no change.
    A past thread here suggested deleting localstore.rdf, which I tried, no result.
    People have had this problem in the past. No one has any idea of how to fix it?

  • Ever since I downloaded Acrobat Pro 11.0.09, the PDF Maker and Save As PDF have not worked, but instead cause MS Word 2013 to crash.

         Ever since I downloaded the Acrobat Pro 11.0.09, the PDF Maker has not worked, but instead causes MS Word 2013 to crash. I cannot find the cause or the solution.

    OK I will try to elaborate this time with pictures so it is clear what I am asking and what the issue I am facing is.
    The specific option I want to be able to use from within the Adobe Acrobat Pro user interface is
    File\Create\Batch Create Multiple Files
    When I select that menu item a floating tool bar thing pops up that I can drag and drop files onto.
    If I drag excel or powerpoint documents onto it and press OK it converts them fine.  If I drag MS word documents into it the documents appear in the list but when I click OK it says no files processed.
    In the process of troubleshooting I also tried using the Add Files button.  That is when I discovered that MS word documents (*.doc, *.docx) are not showing up in the list of supported file types.
    The same thing happens when I try converting a single file using the File\Create\Create PDF From File menu item. Just like above the MS word documents do not show up in the list of supported file types.
    Looking in my registry entries as suggested by the article linked to by one of the posters above I can see both *.doc and *.docx types registered in the correct place.
    Unless I can use the batch convert command as intended by the time my trial period runs out in 13 days I cannot justify buying this software. If converting the documents one at a time was acceptable I would just use Save As PDF from within MS Word which works just fine. I need the batch convert function so I can convert my whole library of word documents to PDF at once.
    Any further assistance greatly appreciated!

  • Photoshop CS3 Save and Save As Dialog box not working

    I can't do a "save as" or "save for web" in photoshop cs3. The dialog box opens and I can't change anything but the file type pull down menu (and sometimes not even that). This problem happens sporadically.... but most of the time it doesn't work.
    I have re-installed Photoshop cs3 but I still have the same problem.
    Photoshop CS3 10.0.1
    MacPro 2 x 3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Memory : 4GB
    Mac OS 10.5.8
    Please Help

    I'm seeing exactly this same problem with Photoshop CS3  after the upgrade to 10.5.8. It appears that the dialog box never gets focus for "Save for Web and Devices" -- the title bar of the dialog is grayed out, while the main "Save for Web and Devices" panel still has focus.  That means there's no way to clear the dialog, since the panel is waiting for it to return, but the dialog can't get any input.  None of the standard resets work for any length of time.  I seem to remember similar problems in a much earlier release of Mac OS X, but I can't be sure.  Quite annoying.

  • Ps 3d and filters and save for web are not working the way they should

    At work we just put cs6 on a w7 machine running 64 bit which has more than that required mem and or ram to run cs6 - unfortunately I have to use a windows based machine at work (cheapskates). Anyways. I see the 3d menus and the filter menu in PS but they aren't funtional. The filter menu drop down is there but Liquify is the only one that shows up the rest are gray. The option to choose 3d is also there but they are not functional (grayed out) - I took a look at some online tutorials on using the 3d effect in PS CS6 and Ive gone through it a few times and it still won't work for me. Also, in illustrator when I save for web - when I adjust the pixel dimensions and move the mouse over and click on the image that I am saving for web nothing happens and I'm completely boggled about how to get the image size to change in the save for web pane. Typically I am used to being able to input the the number into the pixel dimenion field and click on the image and the image resizes (on a mac you can either click on the image or hit return and the image will resize in front of your eyes!). I am unable to get this to work the way I am used to, this happens for me in both ill5 and ill6 on this piece of crap windows machine. Maybe I just need to reinstall? Maybe adobe has changed the way this works? Maybe a sledge hammer into this windows machine would solve all my problems!? IDK. someone help... help me... pleeeeaaaaaaaaaaasssseeeee

    unfortunately I have to use a windows based machine at work (cheapskates).
    This gets a "stupid comment of the day" medal. Seriously. These days Macs are just as convoluted and effed up as Windows was a few years ago - nice as long as everything works, but god forbid you have a problem. So by all means, update your graphics driver and be glad that you actually have that choice rather than having to wait half a year for Apple to fix it...

  • I want to open a html file in word and save it as docx programmatically using activex

    What does your question have to do with instrument control? Does it have anything to do with any NI software?

  • Back button does not work and homepage does not show on startup

    My back and forward buttons do not work anymore. they just show grey and I can not click on them.
    Also my home page does not show when i start firefox.
    I reinstalled firefox 4 and then went back to firefox 3.6.16 and have the same problem in both versions.
    Not sure what to do anymore
    I just found out that when I open a second window everything works fine in the second window, but it still does not work in the first window.
    When I close both windows the same thing happens. The first window my home page does not show up and the back button does not work, but the second window works normal. Including my home page.

    Yeah, I am having the same problem (with 4.0 and earlier versions). It is really frustrating to say the least. I never thought I'd say this, but I might have to go back to IE if FF is going to be this useless. I noticed that you have to right click (instead of left click like it works in the real world) on the backwards/forwards buttons, and that is no less frustrating since my mouses backwards/forwards buttons no longer work with this new asinine button set up.

  • Can open a SharePoint Word document but do not have option to save back to SharePoint.

    Office 2013. I create documents in Word and save them to a folder in SharePoint. Certain users can click on the file in SharePoint, and open/edit the contents. But when they save the document by clicking the Save icon, the document is saved to the \temp
    directory. When they select Save As and then select SharePoint, they have to browse to/find the directory (it is one of hundreds), and when they finally try to save it to the correct directory they over-write the document that is there, erasing all changes
    from other editors.
    I have 6 people contributing to my documents on SharePoint, and 2 of them have this problem. All other users are fine.
    I checked the Trusted settings on their computer but it seems they are carried over from the document I created...so I am stuck.

    Hi Kokiafan,
    According to your description, my understanding is that some users could not save documents back to SharePoint by default.
    You mentioned that you have checked the Trusted settings, where was the Trusted settings? Was it from IE or Office?
    Please uncheck “Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe location” in the Trust Center of Office, compare the result.

  • Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?

    Dear all
    I need to design something using InDesign and Illustrator CS3 (or just one of these depending on the responses I get).
    Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)? It would mainly just be text which would need to be edited in Word afterwards.
    Thanks in advance,
    Adam

    >Which Illustrator CS3 files are editable in Microsoft Word?
    None of them.
    >Is is possible to save a particular file type out of either Illustrator or InDesign which can then be opened & edited in Microsoft Word (on a PC)?
    You can export text from InDesign and open/edit that text file in Word, but you will not get layout, page size, columns, margins, or graphics. You can export art from Illustrator as EMF or PNG (I much prefer PNG) them import those graphics normally and position as you want.
    Making your Illustrator or InDesign file into an editable Word file means doing a lot of it over again in a much worst interface.

  • Can Microsoft Word and Excel be migrated to mac pro?

    Can Microsoft Word and Excel be migrated to mac pro?

    You can also install Windows (new activation copy) on your Mac and use Windows natively, or for 99.9% of running Office apps, run Windows as a guest VM is fine. The data can be opened and edited and exported back to native Office format and opened in OpenOffice and others, or in Pages and Numbers, though whether those are satisfactory solutions or not you'll have to decide.
    If you have a copy of Office that includes PC and mobile devices and Mac? like Office 365 for 5 devices?
    But the actual apps of course are platform / OS specific.
    And right now if you are running Windows 8.1 for instance, you can download the ISO and install Windows 10 Technical Preview (very nice btw, combines a lot of desired features). Have only run into one small problem in using it so far.
    VirtualBox is free Oracle VM or there are commercial VM products. To run Windows natively you just use a Mac utility, Boot Camp Assistant, to partition a drive (internal) and to install and provides Mac specific drivers.

  • Microsoft word file save

    The Microsoft word and excel file save screen flashes when saving documents.  Microsoft says it is a corrupted file in the Mac operating system that supports 2011.  Reloading the microsoft apps did not help. The problem goes away if the screen display is changed to a smaller font which is however too small for me to read comfortably.

    How did you reload Office?
    Find your Office 2011 install disc with the product key # - and only then remove Office according to MS instructions
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2398768
    Or go here to DianefromOregon's site for help removing Office 2011:
    http://www.officeformachelp.com/2012/12/office-for-mac-2011-remove-office/
    Then Reinstall from DVD
    Then enter your Product #
    After successfully reinstalling Office 2011,  update your Office product using the Software update within Office called Microsoft Update or going to the Help menu within Word or Excel or PowerPoint and select Update.
    It may take a few times before you get to final upgrade to current Office version.
    It should be 14.4.9 as of current date.

  • Microsoft word and excel freezes

    Microsoft word and Excel freezes when we try to save.  They had been working fine until now, and just developed this problem.  We cannot use the programs.  How can this be fixed?

    Did you apply a recent 10.6.8 security update? If so, Apple has recognized that the recent security update was flawed and released a new one to fix this issue.
    See  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3713046?tstart=30
