Sharepoint list dataheet view error "Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available"

I have a List which is having around 14000 items in it.while opening that list in datasheet view it is giving error .
Below is a summary of the issue:
After selecting datasheet view beow error occurs:
    "Cannot connect to the server at this time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available."
    "Unable to retrieve all data."
    The item counts displays say 100 out of 14000 items.
Exporting List to excel is giving only 2000 records out of 14000 records.
Other Observations   -
This is happening to only one list on the site .There are other lists in the site whose no. of records is equal to 8000 to 9000.They are working absolutely fine without any error.
Also, If I am saving this list as a template and creating another list with it ,then it is working absolutely fine with 14000 records,so the issue does not seem to be related with no. of records as the template list is working fine.
I have checked the Alternate access mapping setting ,its fine.
It should not be related to lookup,datefield or any other column as the list created from it template is working fine with all these columns.
I checked below links also ,but doesn't seem to work in my case.

I have spent two days to resolve this issue. Microsoft has released two KBs with reference to this issue...but are not appearing in search results at the top.
I am sharing my finding.
1. First install the
KB2552989 (Hopefully you might have already installed it. The KB detetcts it and informs the user.)
2. Then update registry by adding new key for data fetch timeout as mentioned inKB2553007
These two steps resolved the issue in our environment. Hope it might help others as well.

Data Sheet View - Cannot Connect to Server at This Time. You can continue working with this list, but some data may not be available

After a couple of years of trouble free operation, one of the lists in our SharePoint Foundation site suddenly (overnight) started presenting the error against Datasheet views on lists.
The view returns a large number of items when working correctly c.6K - however Throttling Settings have been adjusted accordingly some time ago without detrimental affect on SharePoint users and network in general. As admin and therefore throttling at 20k
items the error message still presents.
The view was working fine at 4:30pm Wednesday 27/3, but was returning the error at 8:30am the next morning. To my knowledge very few items (if any) had been added to the list between those times and no system level changes had been made (SharePoint,
SQL Express, or virtual Windows 2008R2 server).
The problem is most apparent on 2 lists in SharePoint. I've checked that the settings within SharePoint admin are set to deal with queries that should accommodate the
number of rows that are returned by the views associated with that list. It is still possible to create new items to the list and access data via 'standard views' that are presented with groups that are collapsed.
Items in Documents Libraries on other parts of SharePoint and within the same subsite can be accessed at what feels like pretty normal speed -though small query size
may mean the problem is masked to a large extent.
More Specific
The lists still open in Standard View -though much more slowly than was the case before the above error started to present.
List Details
Referrals Tracker (10,442 items) -the list was 10,420 something items on Wednesday when all was working fine.
LD Tracker (4,390 items)
Both lists have grown incrementally over the period of a couple of years rather than by adding a block of data to the list. Items are added/ updated one at a time using the associated
form or directly into cells within a datasheet view.
That it is also experienced against the smaller list suggests to me that the number of items in the Referrals Tracker is not the main factor here.
In attempting to resolve the issue I have managed to get datasheet views working that deliver 100 items and c2k items. Both views present much more slowly than we would normally expect.
Throttling Settings
List view limit - 12K items - has been this high for some time without damaging SharePoint performance across the company.
Actions Taken So Far (no improved performance seen)
The SharePoint Foundation WSS Content DB did was closer to the 10GB SQL Express limit earlier this month, however a clear down and rationalisation of versioning settings
was undertaken to ensure that did not become a problem going forward.
We did a Shrink on Thursday (the day the issue started presenting) to rationalise whitespace as all indicators were that this was where the problem may lie, but this has
not resolved the problem.
The WSS Content DB now sits at c5.5GB.
What I Need to Know
1) I'd like to understand what is causing the problem?
2) What the fix is? or,
3) How I might go about diagnosing the problem further to arrive at a fix.
With all the above, I'm part wondering if the problem is related to the virtual server or poss SQL Express related rather than being a 100% SharePoint issue?

Hi
afearn,
More often this is related to columns which are not editable by user, some columns are not editable in datasheet view. Please check if there is any new column addition and then you started getting this issue.
Also datasheet view displays all items on same page so definitely it takes little long time then load in standard view.
Let us know your results, thanks

Can't connect to iTunes Store
Have you tried rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again - or temporarily disabling your firewall or anti virus software?
Restart or reset the iPad?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Migration on active directory from 2003 to 2008 and SharePoint error Cannot connect to the configuration database.

Hi all,
In advance i`m thankful for your help,
I come across a problem while migrating the Active Directory from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008 R2,
SharePoint 2010 is getting this error Cannot connect to the configuration database. The same goes for the Administrative page,
Nothing is change in the MySql database, same log in, same server name, i guess it have something to do with the SharePoint Farm,
My question is will reinstalling the SharePoint do the job? Or is there an easy way to get back on my old track?
I`ve try to sync users... no good
PS C:\Users\administrator.SERVERM> if($configManager.IsSynchronizationRunning()
-eq $false)

Verify that SharePoint is using the correct IP address for the SQL server. To do this, run the ping command on the Windows SharePoint Services server.
Verify that the SharePoint server is obtaining the correct IP address for the SQL server from DNS. To do this, run the
nslookup command from the SharePoint Server.
Make sure that there are no incorrect entries for the SQL server. To do this, examine the Hosts file on the SharePoint server. This file is in the following location:
%systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\Hosts
On the SharePoint server, look for SQL client aliases. To do this, follow these steps: Click
Start, click Run, and then type cliconfg in the
open box.
Click the Alias tab. By default, there are no SQL client aliases. If you have any aliases for the SQL server, verify that they are correct, or remove them.
Open the SQL Server Configuration Manager (Start SQL Server 2008 Configuration Tools SQL Server Configuration Manager
Navigate to the SQL Server Network Configuration Protocols for MSSQLSERVER node in the tree view
Enable TCP/IP and Named Pipes (you’ll be warned that these changes will not apply until the service is shut down)

Hiya,
I don't think it is necessary to reinstall.
You should just confirm that your basic infrastructure is working.
1: On the SharePoint server, open cmd and write ping <SQL server name>
2: On the SharePoint server, open cmd and write nslookup <SQL server name>
Basically the steps outlined here, is the best way to start:

Can't save BISM file pointing to excel sheet (data source). ErrMsg: "There were errors found while validating the page: Cannot connect to the server or database."

Hi,
Me and a collegue is administrering our new enterprise BI portal in SharePoint 2013 (On Premise) and have a problem with using a specific Excel file including general ledger data as data source through a BISM file.
This particular BISM file can't be saved without getting the error message "There were errors found while validating the page: Cannot connect to the server or database."
BISM files against other Excel sheets and sources (for example SSAS tabular databases) works well.
Can anyone help us pinpointing whats wrong here, this is a really important stakeholder in our organization requesting this reporting?
Cheers!

Error - Cannot connect to the phone

Hi all,
have had a dig around and couldn't find anything so I hoping that someone can sort me out here.
Ok I have my phone connected to the pc via bluetooth. PC Suite picks up the phone but when I click on the Contacts or Messages (or anything in that window) it comes up with an error message saying "Cannot connect to the phone"
I have checked the list of supported bluetooth stacks and it should be fine. I have also check the phones compatability and this should also be supported. I can also communicate with the phone through the bluetooth software itself.
Phone: Nokia 6233
Bluetooth: ITV Bluesoleil 5.0.5
OS: Windows Vista
Error: Cannot connect to the phone
If you need anymore info or can help me with this problem in anyway, please drop us a line.
Cheers for all your help
Chris

Exactly same problem.
OS: Windows XP Service Pack 2
Phone: Nokia 6300
PC Suite version: 6.85.14.1
BlueSoleil Version: 1.6.1.4 (which should be the version supported by latest PC Suite software version as per Nokia web site).
Bluetooth USB Adapter: Billionton USBBTC1A-B
I can pair the phone with my PC and transfer files using the BlueSoleil software directly, but every time I try to use anything in the Nokia PC Suite (after pairing and authorizing the phone in PC Suite), I get the "Could not connect to the phone" error.
When using "Help --> About Nokia PC Suite... --> Show System Info" function:

Why the only Bluetooth stack detected is the Microsoft one? Why is BlueSoleil stack not detected?
How do I use Microsoft Bluetooth stack (at least to see if my Bluetooth USB Adapter works with it)??
Is this problem going to be solved soon? Is there something I can do without the PC Suite apart from transfering files? I can't edit contacts (save changes) with PC Suite even when the .vcf files are in my PC. Is this intended?
Thanks.

Verizon Motorola E815 iSych error: 'cannot connect to the device'

Hello,
I have a Mac Mini running 10.4.3 and iSynch 2.1.1 with integrated bluetooth that won't synch with the Verizon Motorola E815 - other discussion threads I've read haven't had a specific remedy...
-phone has successfully paired to computer
-bluetooth connection is set to automatic
-phone appears within iSynch
Within iSynch, I click the Synch button:
1) progress bar appears stating 'Connecting'
2) phone makes a noise indicating connection is in progress and Bluetooth icon appears
3) after about 20 seconds, the synch fails with the following error:
Cannot connect to the device. Connection to device was closed. Device "Motorola Phone" synchronization failed
I've open the Bluetooth app within System Preferences and viewed the Motorola phone when I'm attempting to connect. It shows the following information (which I'm assuming means it's connected properly)
Paired: Yes
Configured: Yes
Favorite: Yes
Connected: Yes
Serial Port: Yes
Also note, when I navigate within the phone to:
top center button (dash with dashes under it): settings: connection: bluetooth link: handsfree: [look for devices] --- no devices are found.
Perhaps I'm just a newbie to the whole Bluetooth thing but I'm at a loss - any help is greatly appreciated.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Well, I just figured it out.
After pairing, the phone itself needs to be shut off and turned back on. Once I did this, the Bluetooth enabled at startup and iSynch transferred data without error.
Cheers
Doug

Error message received submitting form via email - "Acrobat cannot connect to the server"

Some of my users are unable to submit form data. The forms are set up to be submitted via email and only a few of the users are effected. They have installed the latest versions of both Acrobat and Adobe Reader.
"Acrobat cannot connect to the server, but will automatically submit your form once the server is online. You can check tracker for the status of this submission."
"You have already submitted the data on this form and it is waiting to be sent. Further changes are not allowed until the prior data is sent."
I know that this question has been asked before, but there has not been a response. This is very frustrating.
Thanks for any help or sugesstions.

I have this exact same error, but also have not yet found a workaround.
Only sporatic users get the error, and I've been unable to duplicate it from my machine. I am on Adobe Reader v 10.1.2.
Actually I can get around the error if I were to downgrade to Adobe v9, but that is a bandaid fix - not really a secure answer.

Error: "Cannot connect to the provider. Make sure it is running in the specified host/port. Error (12031)"

Hi,
EPM version: EPM 11.1.2.1
When we are using Zoom In Level as All Levels and tring to drill down for dimention of HFM application we are getting below error.
Error: "Cannot connect to the provider. Make sure it is running in the specified host/port. Error (12031)"
As we found some solution from comunity , we have performed below workaround but still we are getting same error.
·              We have done the changes in mod_wl_ohs.conf file of OHS with (WLIOTimeoutSecs 3600 and WLIOSocketTimeoutSecs 3600)
·              And then restarted OHS and APS service but still we found same error.
Could anyone please suggest ,where can we trace its log from web server and the solution for this issue?
     Thanks,
         D.N. Rana

Hi,
We have already performed the changes for APS in OHS as mentioned in the solution and the path also same as under OHS.
Intially we were getting error for "to increase netRetryCould and NetRetryInterval" as a solution we have added below 3 registry DWORD keys under path
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
"KeepAliveTimeout"=dword:00180000                   (26 Minutes)
"ReceiveTimeout"=dword:00dbba00                      (240 Minutes)
"ServerInfoTimeout"=dword:00180000                  (26 Minutes)
Above error resolved but then we received Error"12031"
Now we have added above 3 DWORD keys under path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings
and now we are not getting the error "12031".
But here we are not getting how it(LB issue) resolved with above solution?
Thanks,

Hope you are having a lovely afternoon today! I'm about ready to go bobo....I have an early meeting, and I don't want to oversleep! The nice part is that I work remotely, so I only have to wake up 15 minutes or so before the meeting....
