Sharepoint 2013 Datasheet View Navigation performance Issues on large lists

I was recently upgraded to SharePoint 2013.
In SharePoint 2010 Datasheet View, one could scroll through and bulk select 100s of line items in Datasheet view very easily. Navigating the datasheet view was just like navigating through a worksheet in Excel, and one could use quick select
keys like ctrl-shift-right arrow / down arrow to bulk select items.
After the upgrade to SharePoint 2013, using the "Quick Edit" tab in Datasheet view and changing the Item Limit to 5000 items, it takes an inordinately long time to load the list. None of the quick select keys like ctrl-shift-right arrow
works anymore and the browser keeps warning about a slow-running script when attempting to select multiple items while scrolling through the list.
The functionality I need is for users to be able to bulk delete all line items in a SP list and copy (from Excel) and paste new line items into the SP list through their browser.

I am running SP Server 2013 with the Dec CU on my internal farm. This past week, I migrated 1 database containing 1 site collection (also ran the site upgrade to 2013). Prior to the migration, the users were using Datasheet View in 2010 to bulk
edit and also add attachments through the pop up window while in Datasheet View. After the migration, performance on their list using IE8 with less than 300 items was horrible for the end user and also for me as a farm admin (I'm running iE11).
I created a new view and performance seemed better for me and a slight improvement for the end user, but still not satisfying. The end user is using Chrome in the interim until I can test with IE9 to see if that makes a difference.
My main concern is the Quick Edit view. This user needs to be able to use the 2010 Datasheet View to manage attachments while in DS view. I created a new DS view on the affected list, but it still defaults back to the Quick Edit view. This
list is on 1 of 3 web apps in my internal farm. The interesting thing is that I can create a 2010 Datasheet View in a custom list on a site that was created in 2013 from scratch in another web app on my internal farm. However, I can only do
this on 1 of 3 web apps. On my 2013 external farm, I can create a DS view in a 2013 site created from scratch in 1 of 2 web apps. Creating a list on the 2nd web app in DS view defaults the list back to Quick Edit. I checked in SharePoint
Manager thinking there was a web app feature that wasn't getting activated. There was only 1 web app feature that jumped out. Academic Library Site Safe Controls was activated on the 2 web apps I could create the 2010 Datasheet View on, but
not the other 3 web apps I could only seem to get the Quick Edit view when creating the DS view.
Is there a feature that needs to get activated or one that might need to be deactivated/reactivated? My internal farm with the 3 web apps is running the Dec 2013 CU and the external farm w/the 2 web apps is running the March 2013
PU.
Aside from that, I've received complaints on the list performance using IE and not being able to use the 2010 datasheet functionality as noted above. I haven't received any complaints on being able to only copy 100 items in Quick Edit view at a time,
but I have also noticed that issue. In my case, the retry doesn't work and I have to delete anything over 100 items before it will save. I would like to find a resolution on this as well. Every bit of help I can get with this issue is very
much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to use SharePoint 2010 Datasheet View in SharePoint 2013?

Quick edit mode doesn't meet users' requirement. They want the header freezing and column width adjustable like what they did in SharePoint 2010.
I understand the Datasheet view is achieved by Access ActiveX control. Can this be used in SharePoint 2013? And SharePoint 2013 online?

Anyone with a solution to use SP 2010 datasheet AxtiveX control somehow as SP 2013 datasheet view?
Anupam Shrivastava
That wouldn't be possible, this is controlled server-side.

Sharepoint 2013 explorer view error - problem opening this location in file explorer (HTTPS + Win7 Enterprise 64 bit + IE9 32 bit + Office 2007 32 bit)

Hi,
We have a problem using Sharepoint 2013 explorer view. (Error - We're having a problem opening this location in file explorer. Add this web site to your trusted sites list and try again).
I'm using Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit, Office 2007 32 bit and IE9 32 bit. And the sharepoint site is a https site.
Some people in my organization are able to browse and some users getting the above error. (with the same client machine configuration)
If I clear my browser cache, closes the browser and open it then the explorer view is working. But after a minute if I try again I'm getting the above mentioned error. This 1 minute expiration happens is since the first time I have used explorer
view, not since I opened the browser.
I have tried the following on my machine:
1. Modified the web client service to run automatically.
2. Verified the sharepoint site is part of trusted sites (https://*.spsite.com/)
3. Compatibility mode is turned on.
4. Tried adding
AuthForwardServerList in the webclient registry settings under parameters. (restarted the web client)
5. Verified the BasicAuthLevel set to 1 (since we are using SSL). Tried setting the BasicAuthLevel to 2 as well. (restarted the web client)
6. Tried installing software update for web folders (KB907306).
Verified the below on the production server:
1. The web application has the root site collection.
2. It has WebDav Publishing disabled under IIS Web Server feature.
Could some one please help me in resolving this issue?
Thanks.

Hi Deepak,
According to your post, my understanding is that you failed to use "Open with Explorer" in a document library.
For your issue, please verify the following:
ActiveX controls must be enabled in IE.
As you are using Windows 7 Server as the client computer, you must install the Desktop Experience feature from Server Manager.
Make sure there is a working Root site collection.
Install this hotfix for windows 7 work with sharepoint 2013 :hotfixv4.microsoft.com/.../463266_intl_x64_zip.exe

SharePoint 2013 RSS Viewer not loading when other Custom web part using Update Panel or Ajax Timer control

Hi,
SharePoint 2013 RSS
Viewer web part failing to complete loading when the page loads.
This happens when having RSS Viewer and then adding a Custom webpart with an updatepanel and timer control.
I had used Ajax update panel and timer control to load the web part asynchronously after the main page is fully loaded.
The RSS-Viewer web part hangs in loading state while the custom webpart loads just fine.
The issue occurs when an like button click or Timer Tick event fires after the page
is loaded.
Haven't been able to track the issue.
Couple of workaround I tried to call a server side button click event from the custom web part after the page gets fully loaded using JQuery shown below did not work out either.
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#<%= netButton2.ClientID %>').click();
And
document.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (document.readyState == "complete") {
$('#<%= netButton2.ClientID %>').click();
Please let me know how to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Franklin

SharePoint 2010 Datasheet view problem - Office 2007 database engine download not fixing the issue

We rolled out new laptops (Dell Latitude E7440)/desktops with 64-bit Windows 7 and 64-bit Office 2013 a couple of weeks ago. We installed the 2007 Access Database Engine to enable Datasheet views on our SharePoint 2010 site for our employees, and it worked
before Thanksgiving. However, after the holiday, datasheet view is not working for anyone. I have my old 64-bit Dell laptop with 64-bit Office 2010/2007 Access Database Engine, and it still works there.
I have tried the x86 2007 Access Database Engine, the 2010 Access Database Engine, the Office 2013 Access Runtime, with 32-bit and 64-bit IE (trying any combinations to see if I can get datasheet views to work).
The one obvious difference is the new laptops have Office 2013. Has anyone run into this before, and is there a solution when the standard 2007 Access Database Engine download does not fix the datasheet view problem?

Coworker figured it out. After the 2007 Access Database Engine is installed, go to Internet Explorer, Tools menu --> Compatibility View Settings, and add your SharePoint website to the list. Your SharePoint datasheet list views should start working
after that. Might be something particular to Internet Explorer 11.

SharePoint 2013 cannot view PDF documents in mobile browser with office web apps

Hi,
I'm receiving the following error when viewing SharePoint 2013 PDF documents in a mobile browser after clicking on the filename:
"Viewing of .pdf files has been disabled in Microsoft Word Mobile Viewer. Please get in touch with your helpdesk."
My Question
Is viewing PDF documents in mobile browsers with Office Web Apps SP1 actually supported? If so, how can I enable it? I've already have pdf viewing working in non-mobile browsers. Word documents open just fine on mobile browsers too.
I'm getting conflicting answers for pdf mobile viewing support from various sources:
You've got Microsoft toting that they've added in PDF viewing on any device for Office Web Apps
http://blogs.office.com/2013/07/03/pdfs-in-the-word-web-app/
A MS support person saying saying it is not supported
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_web_apps_server_2013_support_blog/archive/2013/12/31/enabling-pdf-previews-in-document-libraries-with-office-web-apps-2013-in-sharepoint-2013-open-link-does-not-work-from-preview.aspx
Another person implying that it should work because you can disable pdf browsing for mobile browsers only
http://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2013/07/24/control-whether-pdfs-open-in-word-web-app-or-the-default-pdf-reader.aspx
What I've tried
When I started looking into this there was a mobile WOPI entry:
Application     : WordPdf
Extension       : PDF
ProgId          :
Action          : mobileView
IsDefaultAction : False
ServerName      : 20SP8
WopiZone        : internal-http
I tried experimenting with tweaking this binding by changing the DefaultAction to true, and even removing it altogether via:
Get-SPWopiBinding -Action "MobileView" -Application "WordPDF" | Remove-SPWopiBinding -Confirm:$false
But I still get the same message.
I removed all the WordPdf bindings and re-added them via:
New-SPWOPIBinding –ServerName "<myserver>" –Application "WordPDF" -AllowHTTP
No dice. In fact the mobileview binding doesn't even come back... but I guess that is a different issue altogether.
Version
SharePoint 2013 (SP1)
Office Web Apps Server (SP1)
Farm Setup
Internal facing only
2 front end servers, 1 app server, 1 office web apps server

I think the PDF support, if it exists, in only in Office 365. Always remember that the Office 365 and on premises versions will never be in sync. On premise is updated using periodic service packs and Office 365 has continuous updates. (I've heard every
10 days.)
In my Office 365 / IE 10 tests, the PDFs open in the browser's default PDF viewer, in my case FoxIt Reader. So I can't prove one way or the other about support in Office Web Apps.

On-premise SharePoint 2013 and SkyDrive Pro Sync Issue

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum between SharePoint and SkyDrive as the issue is related to an update on SkyDrive Pro.
premise SharePoint 2013 installation (migrated from 2010) and Office 2013 installed. SharePoint is patched up to the latest CU. Syncing documents from SharePoint worked fine until KB2817495 was installed. The syncing still seems to work but we cannot add
any new libraries, either directly from the browser using the "sync" button or adding the URL to "Sync a new library". I've tested it with an Office 365 account and the libraries add fine so I'm not sure whether it's a SkyDrive or SharePoint
issue. If I uninstall the update then I can successfully sync new libraries from our on-premise installation.
At this point the only solution I can see is to prevent that update from installing via WSUS.
Kind regards,
Rick

Hi
anuxps ,
Yammer already have Single Sign On with Office 365, but SharePoint Server for on-premise does not follow a 90-day release cycle and it won’t yet. Also we are looking for Yammer integration with on-premise
soon. There are improvements coming.

How to export SharePoint 2013 Calendar View to PPT or as an image?

Greetings!
I am working on a SharePoint 2013 event calendar and should be able to provide a capability to export my calendar view (day/week/month) as a PPT slide or as an image. I understand that OOB we can export the calendar list to Excel or open using MS Access.
I had been exploring the option of using the Chart View Web Part which can be saved as an image (jpeg/bmp/png). Here are the pitfalls - Chart View WP does not support calendar view. At best, I am able to use the Gantt Chart Types, but having difficulty using
Calendar list "Start Time" column for one of the axes. There is End Time and Duration columns available for selection, but not start time. Also, I am unable to define date range for my date in the x-axis. Right now I have an x-axis
that spans over 40 years. Is there any way to confine the chart for a particular quarter or year.
At this time, I am inclined to look at custom development approaches. Any suggestions regarding an approach will be really helpful.
Thanks!

Well, even if you want to go through "Export", it will be more manual work than taking a screenie. Unless of course you want to achieve it programmatically (am not sure what to do there).
Another option could be to subscribe to the SharePoint Calendar from Outlook. That way you can eliminate the need for the PPT (?) and also enable your users/clients/management to have more clarity on how the dates stand vis-a-vis other stuff they have listed
on their calendars.

Sharepoint 2013 XSLT view in Dataview webpart

I have one doubt. Recently I seen that in sharepoint 2013, for data view webpart xslt view is not available in Sharepoint Designer. I came to know that XSLT view will not be supported in 2013. My query is whether Microsoft will remove complete XSLT part
in next version of sharepoint. Like Content query webpart and all. Also am not getting why they removed that XSLT view in 2013. Because if they are going to remove XSLT, then it will create a problem in migration and all. Please clear me if you have any idea
on the same.

Sharepoint 2013 site having NTML Crawl issue while crawling Sharepoint 2010 sites having FBA authentication

Hi,
We have Sharepoint 2013 search center site which is claim based with NTLM authentication set. we have Sharepoint 2010 farm also running which are FBA authenticated.
While crawling Sharepoint 2010 sites having FBA authentication from SP 2013 search center having NTLM auth. it does not give proper result.
Can you please help me what can be done here?
Thanks,
Prashant

Hi Prashant,
According to your description, my understanding is that the search cannot work correctly when crawling the SharePoint site which is form-based authentication.
Per my knowledge, the crawl component requires NTLM to access content. At least one zone must be configured to use NTLM authentication. If NTLM authentication is not configured on the default zone, the crawl component can use a different
zone that is configured to use NTLM authentication.
However, if crawling a non-default zone of the web application, URLs of results will always be relative to the non-default zone that was crawled for queries from any zone, and this can cause unexpected or problematic behavior.
I recommend to make sure that the default zone of the SharePoint 2010 web application to use NTLM authentication.

Create a view in SharePoint UI to paginate through data on a large list.

Some of my users are facing a usability issue with SharePoint.
The problem seems to be that if a list exceeds the threshold. SharePoint gives them the error ... but doesn't allow them to fix it.
So when the list threshold is exceeded... the user cannot go into the list at all to create a view or to delete old records.
They must call in the system administrator who can open bigger lists... but in large companies system administrators are not easily accessible.
How can user fix the problem himself/herself in case the threshold has increased?
The second issue is that I want to create a view on a large list that shows 50 items at a time. I don't want to filter (like year = 2013 or age < 10) I don't want to filter but I want to reduce the number of records fetched by means of pagination. Is
this possible on a large list. (I found many blogs on the web with people using XSLT web part and DVWP..... but none of them work when the list has exceeded threshold). I want a very simple view on the list which takes only 50 items at a time and works with
large lists.
val it: unit=()

In order to handle large lists (over 5000 items) you need to select the fields that you what to show in the view and set them as indexes , you can do it through list settings-> set indexes.
it might be a problem in an allready large list 'but in a small one - its pretty quick.
and to create a view'and set the pagination there - use the create view of the list itself and not a dataview webpart or other tool.
I have tested it in a project of mine in a list of 15000 records and it works , although you can not filter and sort on the view itself but on the view definitions only.
if the list is bigger then 20000 items - > it is most desireable not to use sharepoint .
