SharePoint Rename Item No delete Simple solution

Simple, but requires Microsoft's help:
The problem usually occurs when the file is being uploaded. The user realizes the name doesn't reflect the intent of the file in the SharePoint list, so he/she tries to change it during the upload process. OOPS, permission problem. SharePoint
considers the file part of SharePoint at that point and if the user doesn't have delete permission, denies the name change. Well, wake up Microsoft, the file doesn't belong to SharePoint at that point! Name changes should be allowed in the upload dialog
box. No affect on SharePoint list. Easy fix, the upload dialog is the only part affected (unless a link is maintained to the original file outside SharePoint, then there is more to it).
There are obviously situations where you would want a user to be able to upload files to SharePoint, rename them if they wish, even edit them, but not delete them. This goes a long way towards fulfulling those situations.

> the file doesn't belong to SharePoint at that point!
Actually it does... the file has been completely uploaded before displaying the properties page. Upload a file, and then when the property page is displayed, click cancel. You will find the file has been uploaded and left checked out to you.
Is that the way it should be? Probably not. But that's the way they wrote it.
I agree that the user should be able to rename it without having delete permissions.

My Notes duplicate as I am typing them and then I have to delete the excess notes. Also, Notes no longer synch to my iPhone. Is there a simple solution?

Jimyyz2 -
In the Accounts system preference you can see which accounts are being used.
Where are you storing your notes? If you show the folders list (View->Show folders list) you should see a header that has the account name of where the notes are stored. What does it say?

SharePoint Online "New List Item Trigger" deletes them... WTF?

Started playing around with these API apps today on our system, as I think they've got great potential, and as well as not passing any data on to the following commands this also decided to delete them from our SharePoint Online site as well!
Is it worth writing in the documentation somewhere that it will annihilate your data source as it goes through the workflow?
Would appreciate someone getting in touch to try and resolve this.
EDIT: Had a look for the items in SharePoint and they're not even in the site's recycle bin (but previously deleted items from this list have been). We have email alerts set up on any activity on the list (as a kind of audit logging) so I can see that the items
were deleted by my user account.

No I didn't. I know it will fit some scenarios, but these items need to stay in the list they're in otherwise we need to modify the rest of our system
(at which point it becomes a bit pointless using these extra pieces, as we're modifying our deployed app so may as well make the changes in there).
With regards to the "processed" column, I was hoping (and assuming) that it was going to work the same way that Azure Webjobs and blob
storage worked, in that it keeps track of it's own "processed" status in table storage somewhere. This means it can be completely transparent to the source system, means no modifications need to be made to the source system and it's completely self
contained.

Seriously, Stop the DUPLICATE Madness! Is there a fix for my duplicate songs on my iPad? Like really, I don't have time to drag and delete my songs. Does Apple really have a simple solution to this bug?

Seriously, Stop the DUPLICATE Madness! Is there a fix for my duplicate songs on my iPad? Like really, I don't have time to drag and delete my songs. Does Apple really have a simple solution for this bug? It's been 5-months, I currently do not have quick access to a sync, I thought iMatch for Christmas would solve the problem but it appears that doesn't solve anything either....help please! If I listen to my kid's lula-bye song in duplicate for another night I'm going to seriously loose it on Little Boy Peep. Like really Apple do I need to call IN and pay for this problem?

The possible problem appears to me that songs that were previously loaded onto the iPad device from Mac were duplicated when I started to sync with iCloud. An album will contain one song from the iPad that was originally loaded on sync with Mac and another that will appear either with a little iCloud icon next to the song greyed out or a DUPLICATE song.
I had hoped iMatch would solve the issue magically, but that does not appear to be the case.

CAML Query to Sort SharePoint list items based on Modified date

hi ,
can we sort sharePoint list items based on 'Modified' column, the sorting should be done up to milliseconds level.
currently i am using CAML query as below
<OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Modified' Type='DateTime' IncludeTimeValue='TRUE' Ascending='False'/></OrderBy>but its not considering milliseconds while sorting.
Thanks and Regards,
venkatesh.

Veda, thanks but I'm not really a hardcore C# coder.
We found more elegant solution was to create a List View which returns all records that should be deleted, based on our own custom deletion criteria, and then create an very simple SSIS Package in Visual Studio using the
Sharepoint Connectors for SSIS to delete all Sharepoint List Items returned from that List View. The Sharepoint Destination Connector has a delete operation.
This worked for us and didn't require any coding.

Calendar items get deleted after computer restart

Hi, I keep having this problem of my calendar items getting deleted/cleared after I restart my computer. Basically, I sync my handheld on two computers, one is work PC and the other my home PC. Changes are done on both PCs. I modify items on my work PC then sync with the handheld. When I get home, mostly during weekends, I also sync my handheld with my home PC. No modifications are done on the handheld. These past few days, I just noticed my calendar items in the Palm Desktop that the items I added/modified a day ago is no longer there. I have already lost a couple of appointments because of this. Please help.

This question was solved.
View Solution.

With Palm desktop 6.2 there is an issue with losing data but it is mostly seen on Vista systems. This issue has been escalated to Palm Engineering.
When you shutdown your PC, do you close Palm desktop or leave it open? We have seen leaving Palm desktop open, when the PC is shut down, to cause data loss. Another cause of data loss can happen by having Palm desktop open when a Windows update occurs. If you are not using Palm desktop, close it.
Here is a procedure for recovering the data.
You can recover the data from your user folder provided you have only sync'ed once with the PC when you discovered the data missing. When you sync to the PC there are files created for each PIM category in your user folder. For Example; datebook.dat or datebook (Depending on the version of Palm Desktop) and datebook.bak. Using Palm Desktop version 6.2 the file names are .mdb and mdb.bak. For 6.2, the files are located in the username folder in PalmOSdesktop in my documents.
The files are named .dat and .bak. When you sync, the current data is stored in .dat. The next time you sync the data in the .dat file is copied to the .bak file. You can rename the .dat to .old. then rename the .bak to .dat. If the data in the .bak file is intact, it will now be in Palm desktop when you reopen Palm desktop. I have included a link to show you how to find the userfolder on the PC.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=26674
Here is another link regarding data loss;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=39503
The best way to backup your data is to use the export feature in Palm Desktop. Make a new folder on the PC desktop named Palm Desktop Backup data. Next, select the category you want to export. You will get a window that asks where you want to save the file, save in the folder created on the desktop. There is a button that allows you to select currently selected record or all, select all. If you don't select all, then only the record highlighted is exported. You will then need to name the file for export, I suggest the name of the category, eg: datebook (With current date). Do this for all critical data in each category. With the data exported to the folder on the PC desktop, you can save this data to a flash drive, external hard drive or a CD-RW. With this method you will have your data in a seperate place than Palm desktop and the device. If you "Lose" data again, you can import the data back into palm desktop.
Make sure that when you make changes in palm desktop or the device to export the data to the folder created for the backup.
Here is a link for other options for backing up your data;
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28751
Here is a procedure for backing up your data for disaster recovery, like this situation.
The best way to preserve your data is to export the data in each category in Palm Desktop to a seperate folder on your PC.
Create a new folder on your PC somewhere that is convenient. Name it something like Palm Desktop Data. Click on the link below and follow the instructions on that page for the export procedure.
http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=28734
Make sure you select all for the range in the export window.
With the data saved in the folder you created, make a copy of that folder and save to a flash drive, cd-rw or external hard drive.
Anytime you make a change in Palm Desktop, export the data that was changed to that folder and save again to the external media.
With this process you can always import the data back into Palm Desktop anytime you have a problem with the data in Palm Desktop or if your computer/hard drive/device crashes.

Re:Calendar Items are DELETED on calendar yet hours later they'll reappear

IOS 7 on iphone 5. Repeating items are deleted several hours or sometimes days prior to their notification. Notwithstanding the deletion, the deleted item will still announce/pop up at the previously deleted time and our date. Whats with that? Embarassing when they activate at a meeting!!

Hello everyone,
I seem to found a solution! I was having this same issue yesterday... events appearing, then vanishing just as quickly. I suspected it is a sync issue with an event on the exchange server. This is what work for me:
- Exported my calendar from Entourage/Outlook (or make sure you have a recent backup).
- Deleted all events (so there is now no events on the exchange server).
- Double check there are no stray events remaining on the server.
- Open calender on iPhone so it looks to the server.
(All events should now be purged)
- Now import your backup/exported calendar back into Entourage/Outlook
- Make sure all events now appear on the server again.
- In iPhone calendar settings turn Exchange off then on again. (I also restarted iPhone, home button and power button.)
- Finally open iPhone calendar so fetches Exchange events (this will take a while as it's starting afresh).
Everything is behaving itself now. As I said above I suspect it was getting confused with an old or stray event on the Exchange server that wasn't visible in my Entourage.
Good luck! Do let me know if it works for you all. Dan.

Open a SharePoint List item in Modal Pop up in SP 2013 fails after you filter or sort the list

Sorry for the long post. This has been killing me. I had this script working perfectly fine in SharePoint 2010 (online) and basically i have a source custom list (list A) with a hyperlink column and a Destination List with say title and my name.
Source List (list A) looks like this with these 2 columns
Title Test Link
A Link 1
B Link 2
C Link 3
Each of these links link to the actual list item in the destination list, so for example, link 1 is/sites/2013DevSite/Lists/Destination%20List/EditForm.aspx?ID=1
So basically i want anytime the Link are clicked that point to another list's item to open in a modal dialog and the script below worked perfectly fine in SharePoint 2010 (online)
<script language="javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script language ="javascript" type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('a[href*="EditForm.aspx"]').each(function (i, e) {
// Store the A tag's current href in a variable
var currentHref = jQuery(e).attr('href');
jQuery(e).attr({
'href': 'javascript:void(0);',
// Use the stored href as argument for the ShowInModal functions parameter.
'onclick': 'ShowInModal("' + currentHref + '");'
function ShowInModal(href) {
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog({title: "Edit Item", url: href});
</script>
All it does is find the href tags for that particular value Editform.aspx and the pop modal works in SP 2010 online. So the site page is designed in such a way there is a content editor web part with the reference to this javascript file and the sharepoint
list is right beneath it and this worked perfectly opening in modal windows in SP 2010.
Since migration to 2013, this is what exactly happens
1.) when you come to the site page, the modal works,
2.) If you filter or sort on say the Title or Test Link column in Source list (lets say you select the Value A), the script does not fire at all, if i hover over the hyperlink, the who hyperlink is shown and does not open the hyperlink in the modal pop up.
- This is important because i want to be able to sort on a particular item...
Could someone please let me know what am i doing wrong and why is this not working when i sort the list. Thanks for all the help.
Once again i am trying to open a sharepoint list item in Sharepoint 2013 from another list using Jquery

A ListItem has its own unique row id so in all likelihood, an insert with the same data will result in a new list entry. The Lists Web Service however, has an UpdateListItem method which will take an update request. [refer

Hacker problems so I reloaded Snow Leopard. Afterwards, Mac had to delete 798 items. Now looping on 4 items to delete for the past 2 weeks. Can't reboot, reload, or restart. I have to let the battery run down for it to turn off. How to fix this, please?

I had hacker problems so I reloaded Snow Leopard. Afterwards, Mac had to delete 798 items. Now it is looping on 4 items to delete for the past 2 weeks. I can't reboot, reload, or restart. I have to let the battery run down for it to turn off. I think a big part of the problem is that someon one the internet (the hacker) was mirroring my hard drive. It seems to have locked up my system. I could be wrong about this guess, though. All I do know is that it is now looping on the last 4 iems, and I can't do anything.
Well, I can get it to turn on, but all it does is continously try to delete the last 4 items. When I try to reload Snow Leopard, it tells me my hard drive is full and that I need to delete items.
Can anyone help? I am so lost without my Mac. I am back on the PC, and though it works, I'm sure many of you will understand when I say it's just not a Mac.
Thanks.

I installed Snow Leopard using my Apple external Superdrive. I followed directions I found on the Apple site. Here is the article info: Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install
                 Article HT3910
                 located at: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910
Everything was going smoothly until I got to the reinstall part. I had to choose to reinstall on a hard drive or network drive. I've never used a network drive; just the hard drive. It seems that's where the troubles began. I selected the hard drive. It seemed to go well, and then I got the message that I needed to delete some files because I was out of space. I chose to get rid of my music files, but, there were only 636. I don't know what the rest of the files were. I was using the Secure Empty Trash command.
That was my first time doing an erase and install. I tried to do it again, but I now get a continuous error telling me that my hard drive is full and I must delete files. Only I can't delete files because 4 files are still being deleted and my computer won't let me stop the process.
I found out about the hackers mostly by the fact that whenever I used to watch something like Hulu or Netflix, I never had problems with internet connection or speed. Lately, I had internet connection problems. I went in to check my settings for my internet provider and found out the settings had been changed to public and all these extra computers were connected to my network.

Report workload by calculating how many versions of SharePoint list items created in a certain time period

I have a total of 66 SharePoint 2010 lists - yes, 66! - each lists contains between 1500 and 3200 list items. My employees update these various list items throughout their workday. Each update to a list item creates a new version of the list
item. On average each list item will have anywhere from 5 to 10 versions before it is done. I need to create a report that tells me how many list items they've updated in a certain time frame. I have come close but still cannot arrive at
the data I'm looking for.
This is what I have so far:
I've created a report using SQL Report Builder 2008 v3 where I've filtered it to show only items MODIFIED between, for example, Feb1 and Feb28. Of those records, I want the report to tell me how many versions were created during that time
frame. The result is one list item with 5 total versions. Versions 1.0, 2.0, & 3.0 were created on 12/12/14. The last two versions, 4.0 and 5.0, were created on 2/24/15. Therefore, the answer I'm looking for is 2 because they
created 2 versions between Feb1 and Feb28.
However I get the following results using these queries:
If I do a =Sum(Fields!owshiddenversion.Value) in the expression field I get the total versions which is 5
If I do a =Count(Fields!owshiddenversion.Value) in the expression field I get the instance which is 1
Is there a way to count ONLY the number of versions created in a time period? Is there another hidden field in SharePoint that I can use in the expression that will give me results I'm looking for?

Hi Rafael70,
Per my understanding that you have already get all the need fields and informaiton of the updated version of list items and now you want to calculate how many versions of SharePoint list items created in a certain time period, you can't get desired result
using sum and count function, right?
I have tried to tested on my local environment but because I am not clear what is value in the field "owshiddenversion", I assumed you have two datatype parameters (StartDate and EndDate) to help filter the report in a certain time period.
Generally, if you have add the filter correctly, it will filter the correct number's updated version in this time period, I would like you to provide details information as below to help better analysis the requirements:
Could you please provide sample data of the table.
Please provide snapshot of the report structure you have currently designed.
Please try to provide all the expression you have used.
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

ITunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution?

iTunes won't open after downloading software update. Macbook Pro OSX10.6.8 Simple solution? And by the way, this is apparently a common problem and Apple has completely failed to warn in advance or offer a quick straightforward solution - used to be a good company, but it's becoming just another crappy screw-the-consumer corporation.

It would help to know versions here. I'm guessing your update put an older version of something into a place where a newer version of something iTunes put in there existed. Updating an earlier OSX version to 10.6.8 is still only updating to system software that was issued several years ago. If you are running some slightly newer version of iTunes issued subsequent to 10.6.8 and you just updated to 10.6.8 you may have put in an older version of something iTunes uses. Anyway, I'm guessing here until we know exactly what you did.

T520 Sound Issues...Latency Spikes...SIMPLE SOLUTION !!

Hello All,
Many of us T520 owners have had problems with skipping/cracking/distorted audio as a result of DPC Latency Spikes. I have been reading every available thread on the topic and I found a simple solution in a T420 thread that I wanted to share with any T520 users that may have overlooked it.
The Latency Spikes experienced by many users (including myself) were caused by the Ethernet Driver (Intel 82579LM Gigabit Adapter). The current T520 is loaded with Intel driver version 11.12.38.2001. However, if you revert to version 11.12.36.0 the issue disappears. You can download the driver directly from the HP website. (It is no longer available on the Lenovo Support Page)
Thanks again to the original T420 poster and GOOD LUCK!
Moderator Note: Links fixed.

Just bought a NEW T520 with nVidia 4200 , i5 , 4GB, 500GB (7K2 rpm)....
Had before Y560p, & resplved problems with that by reversing the bios to an older one, I didn't found it on Lenovo web, but hte guy from Thailand sended it to me on e-mail (he had problems too).
So it was OK but I wanted the best U can buy... & bought T520.... Had a BIG problem on a gig 1st time a used it ...
Music just stopped for a second or two.... big spike in latency monitor (I started it before work)... then I put to OFF WiFi (on the switch - left side). OK for about 45 min, then AGAIN.... I have gone crazy .... bought a double priced laptop & have problems again ??!?! Is that possible ?!?!?
BTW the drivers on my LAN card are : 11.15.16.0
Anyone know the answer for this ? Thanks in advance, while I'm reconsidering (not glad about that cose I love the Lenovo brand) buying the Apple Mac Book Pro...

Uploading multiple documents into sharepoint list item with REST in sharepoint 2013 using content editor web part :

hi ,
i am trying to upload multiple document files into sharepoint list item. I followed below link for implementaion.
http://techfindings-prem.blogspot.in/search/label/jquery.multifilejs
It was working for sharepoint hosted app.
This complete code is written within content edito web part.
It was working when i was in root site collection with below change (hard coded the root level url) in code in "UploadFile" function.
var scriptbase = "http://servername" + "/_layouts/15/";
console.log(' File size:' + bytes.length);
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
var createitem = new SP.RequestExecutor("http://servername");
createitem.executeAsync({
url: "http://servername/sites/cpg/" + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('SalesRecord')/items(" + attachmentitemid + ")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='"
+ fileName + "')",
method: "POST",
binaryStringRequestBody: true,
body: binary,
success: fsucc,
error: ferr,
state: "Update"
function fsucc(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(data + ' uploaded successfully');
deferred.resolve(data);
function ferr(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(fileName + "not uploaded error");
deferred.reject(data);
But the issue came in picture when i was working with the other site collection instead of root one. The url was like below.
"http://servername/sites/cpg/". This time i need to be there within "cpg" site collection.
Now if i hard code the url as i did above my code gets break here while come to below line
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
I am getting error when i used below code:
var scriptbase = "http://servername" + "/_layouts/15/";
$.getScript(scriptbase + "SP.RequestExecutor.js", function () {
var createitem = new SP.RequestExecutor("http://servername");
createitem.executeAsync({
url: "http://servername/sites/cpg/" + "/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('SalesRecord')/items(" + attachmentitemid + ")/AttachmentFiles/add(FileName='"
+ fileName + "')",
method: "POST",
binaryStringRequestBody: true,
body: binary,
success: fsucc,
error: ferr,
state: "Update"
function fsucc(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(data + ' uploaded successfully');
deferred.resolve(data);
function ferr(data) {
//alert( data.statusText + "\n\n" + data.responseText);
console.log(fileName + "not uploaded error");
deferred.reject(data);
Please hekp in this case. This complete code is written within content edito web part.

Sanjay Joshi

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about upload multiple documents files into library vai REST API.
As you have said, you have used the hard code url in your code.
How about use the _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl method to get the url?
I have used this method to get the url, then use the code in the article you have pasted within a content editor web part to upload the files.
You can replace the hard code url with the _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl method, then check whether it works.
Thanks,
Jason
