Slicers Disappear

Slicers Disappear
I have created (& REGULARLY use) PowerPivot (PP) PivotTables (PTs).
After (first) saving the Excel 2010 file (on a hosted 64-bit server platform), the slicers (vertical & horizontal) disappear -- ONLY from the field boxes on the right. Nonetheless, the (originally set / selected) slicers REMAIN (with)in
the bounding boxes to the left (vertical) & top (horizontal) bounding boxes.
You can DELETE (& recreate) the (originally set / selected) slicers (with)in the bounding boxes to the left (vertical) & top (horizontal) bounding boxes -- but you canNOT ADD any slicers (to any EXISTING horizontal or vertical bounding
boxes -- OR add ANY once they disappear). Once any slicer is deleted -- it is GONE -- & canNOT be replaced -- but it can be DELETED & RECREATED. [Of course, this is a MAJOR PAIN -- takes a LOT of time -- & 'lasts' ONLY for the current session
(at most).
Notwithstanding, the Report filters, Column labels, Row labels & Values (measures) remain as set. NO similar ('stability')  problem seems to exist with respect to these.
(As noted) I can delete ALL slicers -- & RECREATE them okay -- BUT the SAME thing happens when(ever) the Excel file is saved & reopened.
This occurs on ANY PP-PT that I use / create; is it is 'consistent' behavior & is NOT 'selective' or 'intermittent' behavior...
My principal .xlsb Excel workbooks are ~130MB file size.
How can I get the slicers to STOP disappearing -- & to be STABLE ???

Perhaps there are two different problems?
One is the disappearing slicers which it seems has a workaround (click on a PT/PC before opening the PowerPivot window and refreshing the data). 
When this problem occurs, the slicer areas in the field list are still there but empty, and the slicers disappear from the dashboard area.
The other problem seems to be where the slicer areas disappear from the field list box.  Could this be due to the multiple types of field lists available? 
There is the regular Excel 2010 ‘PivotTable Field List’ which is accessible from the PivotTable Tools Options tab. 
(You also get this field list to show up when you right click inside your PT and select the Show Field List option.) 
The PivotTable Field List does not have the slicer areas. 
Nor does it allow you to access the bounding boxes around your existing slicers.
There is another field list icon which is available on the PowerPivot tab. 
If you click that button, you will get the ‘PowerPivot Field List’. 
Slicer areas are visible as is your access to the slicer bounding boxes.

  • Slicers in reports disappeared from Excel Web Access sites

    Yesterday all slicers disappeared from all reports published on Sharepoint online (Excel Webb Access).
    The reports are working fine as long as named range isn't used.
    Any one experiencing the same issue? Solutions?
    Thanks
    Ben

    We're seeing the same thing. On Wednesday, all of our slicers were there, and on Thursday they were gone. Same for all of our clients who use slicers on SharePoint Online (Office 365 Enterprise) as well. We have a ticket in with Microsoft support and are
    currently trying to reach one of their SharePoint Online engineers.

  • Secondary Axis Disappears in Pivot Table Chart

    I'm using Excel 2010 and have a pivot chart based off of a PowerPivot table with multiple slicers. The X or secondary axis disappears randomly and the only way to get it to reappear is to go back into the chart property and re-assign the value to the secondary
    axis.

    I had the same problem. It happens when filtered results doesn't contain values for series i used in the secondary axes. When i toggle off filters and turn back to all results the pivot chart "forget" the secondary axis setting....
    Anyone have find a solution?

  • On Screen Keyboard Glitch in Tablet Mode - On Screen Keyboard minimizes / disappears / slides down

    Hi there -
    New Yoga owner here ( just bought it yesterday) and within minutes of setting the computer up I noticed that the on screen keyboard was malfunctioning when the yoga is in tablet mode. Specifically, it pops up for about a second and then, without me touching or clicking or doing anything, it quickly slides back down. repeated attempts to bring up the keyboard end up, frustratingly, with the same result. what is perplexing to me is the on screen keyboard works fine in laptop mode (when I need it least).
    Someone else already started a post on this BUT it was marked as 'solved' (which it wasn't) so I figured I'd start new thread. The solution on the previous thread was to simply 'refresh' windows to get rid of any new drivers that were downloaded since purchasing the yoga, but I did not download or update anything prior to this problem arising (as I said, the problem seemed to occur within a few minutes of turning the machine on for the first time). In any case, I tried the refresh and it did not work so clearly my problem is not that I downloaded an incompatible or faulty driver. Please Help! I love this machine and I'm trying to see past the other flaws I've noticed so far (subtle screen flickering, inconsistent touch sensitivity etc), but this issue is starting to really undermine my confidence in the product quality and, from a productivity standpoint, it is a real deal breaker to not have full tablet functionality.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I had the same problem with the disappearing virtual keyboard within hours of starting to use my new Yoga 13.  I read somewhere that it was a problem with an incompatible Synaptics driver, and when I looked in the control panel, it showed that the Synaptics driver had been updated on my Yoga as of the day I bought it.  I think somehow by agreeing to automatic updates of the software, the Synaptics driver is updated to an incompatible version.   So what I did was I removed the Synaptics driver, using the Windows program uninstaller tool, rebooted, and then found the Synaptics driver at the Lenovo site which is specifically labelled as the Yoga 13 driver.  I installed that, and the keyboard is now working fine.

    Looks like your webkit framwork is broken, or is now broken in relation to iTunes. Calls and classes may have changed since version 7.1, which is what you are using. Try updating to the latest version of iTunes and see if this fixes it.

  • When I open up my emails and close them, they disappear and I cannot find them.  Where are they going?  Is there a setting that I have to change?

    Once I open up my emails they disappear and I cannot find them anymore.  Is there a setting that I need to change to stop this from happening?

    Are you tapping any of the icons at the of the Mail app after opening them, or do they disappear without you doing anything ? And if you have more than one account on the iPad, does it happen on your other accounts as well ?

  • Contacts and calendar events disappearing and reappearing

    I have three issues, two of which I think are related.
    1.
    My contacts disappear on my iPhone 3G. I am set up with MobileMe to auto sync and I don't know if that is getting screwed up somehow? The contact are on my Mac lap top when I go look (thank goodness), and I force a sync and they transfer to my phone fine. This has happened twice now. I have copied my contacts as vCards and saved that file in the downloads folder just in case they get lost on both my laptop and my iPhone - I also do a regular full laptop backup to my Time Machine - is there anything else I should be doing to back up my contact and calendar data?
    2. (possibly related to 1.)
    When I am looking at my iCal in the weekly view on my laptop, sometimes several of my appointments are not visible. It is only when I try to put an appointment in that is at the same time as the invisible ones that they suddenly reappear.
    3. One of my contacts will not sync from my iPhone to my lap top? It used to be in both places but for some reason it is now only on my iPhone and even when I sync, it doesn't come into my laptop Address Book.
    Help please!!!

    i am having what i think is a very similar problem in that my Exchange (you seem to use only mobileme) contacts partially disappear. i discover this when i check my sms message list and find that many messages show only the phone number when earlier the name was there. a check of the contacts list shows that some have disappeared.
    i restarted the phone and checked immediately but it was still gone but after a few minutes they came back.
    my theory is that something is going on with messy exchange server syncs with my iphone that could be causing the process to break midway but after a while the phone automatically syncs again.
    this issue appears quite rarely for me but enough to be noticed and to be annoying.

  • I just updated itunes and a LOT of my movies and music disappeared. These are movies and music I owned already and did not purchase from iTunes. How do I find them or do I need to add them all again? Also what happened to the sidebar?

    I just updated my iTunes software and have a lot of problems...
    1. The sidebar option is gone. I LIKED the sidebar and it was easier for me to navigate that way.
    2. Also no lists? I hate the icon way to view it. It makes my eyes go wonky and I have a harder time actually looking for what I want.
    3. A LOT of my music and movies have disappeared. These are music and movies I owned that I did NOT purchase from iTunes so I can not re-download them.
    How do I find the missing files? Do I have to readd them into iTunes? Is there a way I am not seeing to put thew sidebar back or make the files be viewed in list form? Can I undo this update to put it back the way it was. I hate this update...

    See my answere to your post in the Mt. Lion forum.

  • ICal disappears in month view

    Just recently, when I select month view in the Tiger iCal, the window disappears. I can add new events, but cannot see them unless I'm within the day or week view. Also, when I immediately click day or week, it doesn't fit the frame properly. Does anyone know why this glitch is happening?

    I found this advice from a standford prof.... and it worked for me...
    "I just deleted the com.apple.ical.plist file from
    user/library/preferences and reset everything back to defaults and it works
    fine now."
    I deleted all the iCal plists and it kept my data, but reset iCal and I can now see in month view.

  • If e-mail is moderately long if I delete a letter or digit the cursor disappears, have to recover it, all deleted letters or digits appear at end of e-mail

    If I type a moderately long e-mail (I haven't counted the letters/digits to determine how long), then suddenly letters won't appear. If make a typing errors, and backspace over or delete the error/s, the cursor will disappear. It's not anywhere in the body of the e-mail (or anywhere else I've noticed). I can get it to reappear by highlighting every word in the e-mail, then undoing that.
    All the letters/digits I've deleted reappear at the end of the e-mail--but only in the e-mail received (by the recipient). If I save the e-mail as a draft, when I look at the draft, the I'll see the deleted letters/symbols at the end of the e-mail. If I click on edit, they disappear. But recipients see all of them, regardless of whether I edit the e-mail or not.
    The last time I asked this "question", I was told to update. That was probably 5 updates ago. There has been no change.
    I don't know if the problem persists in safe mode because I have forgotten to switch into safe mode every time I use TB. Sometimes I remember to run TB in safe mode but don't have reason to type a long e-mail.
    I'm really tired of this problem.
    OS is win 7 pro w/service pack 1.

    May I ask why? Have you learned that that specific problem is solved in a pre-release version? So far I've upgraded once on your advice, now I've upgraded again to 31. Problem's still there. Unless I'm told that the problem's been solved for sure in a latter version, I'm not going to upgrade because sometimes the upgrades bring problems w/them for a low tech user. I don't want to chat, etc., I just want to be able to send and receive e-mails.
    I'm still working with the security software people re: some continuing issues w/FF.
    I'd like to spend more time doing my work, or communicating w/friends, not dealing w/software problems.
    Is there anyway of my finding out what, if any update, includes whatever is needed to solve my specific problem? I use Win7 Pro, SP1, 3.40 Gz processor, 3.19 Gb usable RAM, 64 bit OS. I don't know what other information is needed.

  • Ipod touch will no longer sync my songs, they show up for a few seconds then disappear help

    for some reason when I try to sync my songs to my ipod touch, they will all show up briefly, then disappear once I hit the sync button?  very frustrating, have never had this problem in the past, any suggestions would be great

    If you haven't tried it yet, I'd eliminate memory issues first.  Close all of the apps with the double tap on the home button method

  • Can no longer connect to my network and 'forget network' option has disappeared??

    Can no longer connect to my network and "forget network" option has disappeared???  (Ipod touch 5th generation). This happened on both my children's ipods. We have reset network settings but it doesn't help.

    JEM24 , your suggestion is included in:
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on2. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.

    Sorry Mindi, also have your tried rebooting your router? That's all. Try that before you attempt to Restore. Cheers.
