  • [SOLVED]Wow in bin32-wine-wow-hardware-cursor need help with patching

    Hi all.
    I have installed bin32-wine-wow-hardware-cursor from AUR and it's working pretty fine I must say. I still have one important issue. That is, that the cursor acts strange when holding the button pressed down, as you do when turning etc. The cursor then moves to the middle of the screen and shakes, until you release the button.
    There is a fix for this posted on the Ubuntuforums, but I don't know how to implement this in Arch. Trust me, I have tried in so many ways possible, but I don't have the knowledge to do this. Please help me, or point me in the right direction.
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p= … tcount=172
    I have managed to fix this problem myself. If any of you are wanting the same functionality as what i mentioned above, navigate to your mouse.c find the function update_mouse_state, and then make the changes below...
    static void update_mouse_state( HWND hwnd, Window window, int x, int y, unsigned int state, POINT *pt )
    struct x11drv_thread_data *data = x11drv_thread_data();
    char *hwgl;
    get_coords( hwnd, window, x, y, pt );
    hwgl = getenv("WINE_CURSOR");
    /* update the cursor */
    if (hwgl == NULL){
    if (data->cursor_window != window)
    data->cursor_window = window;
    wine_tsx11_lock();
    if (data->cursor) XDefineCursor( data->display, window, data->cursor );
    wine_tsx11_unlock();
    Thank you in advance.
    EDIT: To clear things out a bit. I am using 64-bit Arch.

    However, I don't think that one includes the right patch either. That just looks like the 32-bit version of the bin32-wine-wow-hardware-cursor. And I cannot install that on my system.
    When talking about cursor issues there are 2.
    1. Getting hardware cursor in OpenGL.
    2. Irritating cursor-behavior when pressing down the buttons to turn etc.
    The package you refer to solves problem #1, so does the bin32-wine-wow-hardware-cursor. It's problem #2 that need fixing. I would assume, since it is just a cosmetic defect, no one else has bothered before me.
    But still, it's solvable in Ubuntu, and I am kind of a perfectionist.
    EDIT: Yes, I can see now that the mouse.c is in the archive. I would be able to edit myself. But (silly question) I won't be able to run the PKGBUILD with that source, right?
    Well, you could always edit the file then re-tar/bzip it.
    The PKGBUILD wiki article states:
    Note: If you need to supply files which are not downloadable on the fly, e.g. self-made patches, you simply put those into the same directory where your PKGBUILD file is in and add the filename to this array. Any paths you add here are resolved relative to the directory where the PKGBUILD lies. Before the actual build process is started, all of the files referenced in this array will be downloaded or checked for existence, and makepkg will not proceed if any are missing.
    So basically, edit the PKGBUILD and set the source to the location of the newly bziped file you have after applying the patch. Then it should use that one instead
    But, that won't be possible on a 64-bit system, right? I can't use the 32-bit source.
    Or am I missing some piece of the puzzle here?
    I think I'm missing part of the puzzle....
    Ok, title of thread: "bin32-wine-wow-hardware-cursor"
    That makes me assume 32-bit
    Next, source file you downloaded:
    wine-wow-hardware-cursor-1.1.43-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
    Again, 32-bit...
    I'm confused with what you want now

  • Will upgrading to Office 2007 SP2 cause any problems with syncing?

    I've got to figure this question has been addressed somewhere, but searching for "2007 sp2" found no topics...
    So Microsoft's got Office 2007 SP2 available for download now. One of the highlighted changes is speedier Outlook performance which I'm anxious to experience. But I've had issues when I initially synced my iPhone to Outlook and then again when I upgraded to the latest iTunes s/w. Not looking forward to dealing with that again.
    Is Office 2007 SP2 officially supported for syncing with the iPhone? If not yet, when & how will users be notified? What experience have people had that upgraded to SP2?

    If the documentation doesn't say it is officially supported, then it's not officially supported. As for when, no one here will know--none of us work for Apple. The documentation will probably be modified once stability has been confirmed (or once issues are discovered).

  • Switching to MAC from Windows: How to open files in Office 2007  VMFusion?

    Dear all,
    Intro:
    I switched to MAC and now cannot find the solution to a simple problem.
    First: I need an Office 2007 PowerPoint FULLY compatible solution.
    What did not work: IWork, NeoOffice, Office 2008 (this is not fully compatible with Office 2007 Files)
    I also had problems with: Parallels (not stable, too many hangups), codeweaver crossover (office files do not even open sometimes, good idea but not suitable for serious office jobs)
    Now I have VMWare Fusion with WinXP and Office 2007 as this seems to be the only truly stable and best solution to run Office 2007 on Mac
    Question:
    How to open files in Office 2007 on MAC VMWare Fusion easily?
    It would be nice to spotlight the file and click and it opens in powerpoint or excel or word 2007 in Virtual Machine.
    The only known solution to me is to use the Windows explorer to navigate to the file and then open it from Fusion WinXP. This is very cumbersome and honestly makes me think of getting back to a windows machine as I work with office frequently.
    Thank you for your help.

    Thank you for the quick reply.
    Yes, I have Office 2007 installed. The problem is that to open files in Fusion virtual machine I have to use the windows explorer and navigate to the file to open it. Now that I have the mac I want to use the good feature of spotlight. So when I search and find the file I want to open I cannot click on it on the mac (or in finder) but I have to switch back to the virtual machine, locate the file again and open it from windows.
    You might think - ok, why not skip the first step of using spotlight, and look up the file in windows explorer before anything else?
    Correct, but I know from parallels that there is a file association possible to directly access the file in office 2007.
    This does not seem possible in Fusion - So the question is whether there is a possibility on the mac to associate the file and to click on it in finder/spotlight and the office 2007 application in fusion opens the file. So far I could not find anything.
    Thanks

  • SRM interaction with Office 2007

    Hello Gurus,
    We need to do some research on how SRM interacts with Office 2007- users are having problems with attached files.
    The issue is buyers can't read requisitioners' attachments in SRM.Our requisitioners get upgraded to Office 2007. Default file extension is .docx, .xlsx, .pptx, etc. SRM does not recognize 4-character extensions, but the file is still good.So file is not readable.
    can you guys help me in this?
    Regards,
    Khushbu.

    Thanks. My concern is to have compatibility with common features and files in Word, Excel & Powerpoint. Can those be shared back and forth between PC and Mac, assuming both versions of Office are using a common feature set? Probably it will be more about opening files from the PC on Mac than the other way around.

  • Win 7 "Default Programs" does not include MS Office 2007 Programs, the missing Programs are missing ICONs as well

    I installed Windows 7 in an upgrade from Windows XP.  As part of the process MS gave me a URL to download a Office 2007 Pro I could activate with the license key I owned.  I got similar URLs for Visio Professional and Project Professional. 
    Downloaded, installed, activated, started the programs.
    From the beginning some of the icons were missing.  Like the icons for Word, Excel, Access, Outlook, Power Point, Publisher, Visio, and of course Project.  I tried most of the answers in this forum, that didn't sound like guesswork, and none of
    them solved either problem.  There must be at least 65 guesses to fix the icon problem, but none with the missing Default Programs problem.
    The programs related to the missing "Default Programs" still work, they startup when you select the related document.  If I check "Associate a File Type or Protocol with a Specific Program" the missing Office 2007 programs are listed
    there, associated with the designated programs, but are missing icons.
    I make it a habit not to pay a vendor for a product so that I can have the privilege of fixing the vendor's problems.   Google tells me these are well known problems.  The only thing missing is the answer.  I won't ever use MS chat or telephone,
    because all they do is tell me why they can't help and transfer me elsewhere.
    Does anyone have a REAL answer please?

    I had the same problem with Office 2010 programs not showing in "Set Your Default Programs". No other "fixes" (including repair) worked. Found this thread:
    http://www.sevenforums.com/microsoft-office/222503-office-2010-not-listed-default-programs.html
    and used it as a guide. When you look at this key
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications
    you will see a list of software pointing to another HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry key. For example, my Word program was showing up as "Word.Application.14" and pointing to Software\Clients\Word Processing\Microsoft Word\Capabilities
    (In contrast, PastorMike's fix in the link above advocates making a new entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Capabilities. However, OneNote did appear in my "Set Your Default Programs" and it - and the other Office programs
    - were listed under ..\Software\Clients\... and not ...\Software\Microsoft\...)
    So at this point I went my own way (although maybe PastorMike's fix would also work).
    The difference between OneNote and the other programs was the existence of values for "ApplicationName"  and "ApplicationDescription" in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\Word Processing\Microsoft Word\Capabilities. Also, for OneNote
    there was a "FileAssociations" sub-key that was missing from the other programs.
    It is setting the values for ApplicationName and ApplicationDescription which cause the program to show up in the list in the left pane of "Set Your Default Programs". And it is the file associations in the FileAssociations key that allows resetting
    associations en masse when they are snaffled by another program.
    Below is the reg file I added for Word 2010. (i used similar for the other programs) After doing this, Word appeared after reopening "Set Default Programs" - no reboot required
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Word Processing\Microsoft Word\Capabilities]
    "ApplicationDescription"="Create and edit professional-looking documents such as letters, papers, reports, and booklets by using Microsoft Word."
    "ApplicationName"="Microsoft Word 2010"
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Word Processing\Microsoft Word\Capabilities\FileAssociations]
    ".doc"="Word.Document.8"
    ".dochtml"="wordhtmlfile"
    ".docm"="Word.DocumentMacroEnabled.12"
    ".docmhtml"="wordmhtmlfile"
    ".docx"="Word.Document.12"
    ".docxml"="wordxmlfile"
    ".dot"="Word.Template.8"
    ".dothtml"="wordhtmltemplate"
    ".dotm"="Word.TemplateMacroEnabled.12"
    ".dotx"="Word.Template.12"
    ".htm"="wordhtmlfile"
    ".html"="wordhtmlfile"
    ".odt"="Word.OpenDocumentText.12"
    ".rtf"="Word.RTF.8"
    ".wbk"="Word.Backup.8"
    ".wiz"="Word.Wizard.8"
    ".wll"="Word.Addin.8"
    By using my ramblings and the link provided above you may be able fix the problem you are having with Office 2007. However, I am unsure of how to find the necessary file associations for Office 2007 except by trawling through your registry for the filetypes
    listed in the link above and the values for them in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.

  • Problems with MS Office 2007 and Tiger Server

    I have an Xserve hosting file services for Macs and PCs. There is a RAID attached to the Xserve storing user data and ACLs are enabled. Since installing Office 2007 on the PCs there's been the following problem which can be replicated -
    When saving an Excel or Word document back in the 2007 suite to the Xserve, the user will be unable to save the document if it is saved back for the third time. In Excel 'Unable to save document is reported'. In Word the document can't be saved due to a network error or a file permision problem being reported.
    The above is true for existing documents created in Excel or Word 2003, then saved in 2007 versions, which are on the Server, or for documents created using Excel or Word 2007.
    Users are logging on with different user accounts. They first log on to a Windows domain hosted by a Small Business Server then a drive has been mapped on their PC, to give thme access to the Xserve.
    As I said things were OK until Office 2007 was installed on the PCs.

    I'm having the same issue, allowing guest access on the share did change the logs I'm getting in Samba. Earlier on it was giving errors on the inability of guest access to the share.

  • Performance Problems Bex 7.0 and Office 2007 Workbooks

    Hi
    we had a performance Problem with Bex 7.0 and Worksbooks in Office 2007.
    The Workbooks are created with Office 2003 and runs with good performance but in Office 2007 the performance is inacceptable.
    E.g. open Workbook with Office 2003   --    30 seconds
           open Workbook with Office 2007   --    15 minutes
    We do everything what we find in SAP Notes, Whitepapers oder SDN Messages.
    For Example:
    - We installed all Excel Patches witch descriped in: Microsoft Excel 2007 &
    SAP Business Explorer Compatibility
    - We set the optimize X: RS_FRONTEND_INIT setting u2018ANA_USE_OPTIMIZE_STG = Xu2019
    - We open worksbooks in Office 2007 with the repair Flag.
    - We used Flag open in XLS format
    But same Workbooks are extrem slow.
    We try to create a new Workbook with Office 2007 and it runs with good performance.
    But there are 500 Workbooks we didn`t wont to create all new.

    Hello Carsten,
    Try to use Workbook compression:
      -  Open the specific workbook in BEx Analyzer
      -  Open Workbook Settings dailog
      -  Check "Use Optimized Storage"
      -  Click on OK Button
      -  Save the workbook
    But also, your front end tools are on a very old version.
    I would like to recommend you to install the latest patch of SAPGUI 7.20 and Business Explore 7.20.
    Front End Version 7.10 will be supported until April 2011.
    But, if you want to continue using 7.10, update to latest patch:

  • 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

  • Having problems with OPA 10 and office 2007 templates

    Hi,
    I have a OPA 10 and office 2007 set up which is having some issues with the macros. Seems to me that the visual basic code is not kicking off really well sometimes. I am trying to map the sequence which leads to the errors and I believe that the issue is around opening an old word doc which has a old template version (.dot). This may be the cause for OPA getting lost when working with word 2007.
    For example, I ask to open a rules doc and the visual basic tells me that OPA couldn't open the doc but word is opening the doc anyway. However none of the toolbar commands work as well as I can 't save the doc etc.
    Have you experienced any issue with OPA 10 and Office 2007? Any special word configuration? Should i go back to office 2003?
    BTW, I have both dotm and dot templates loaded as add-ins in word. The dotm toolbar looks good but the dot toolbar is a bit strange in 2007.
    Cheers,
    Paulo

    Hi Paulo,
    Have a look at the following tips from Davin Fifield about troubleshooting the toolbar.
    Sometimes when using Oracle Policy Modeling, Microsoft Word documents that are part of a Policy Modeling project may appear without the OPA toolbar (in Office 2003) or OPA options on the Add-Ins ribbon (in Office 2007) when opened in Microsoft Word.
    This problem can be caused by various factors.
    Here are the top three troubleshooting steps to try to recover from this situation.
    1. With your project open in Oracle Policy Modeling, run Update Oracle Policy Templates from the Tools menu. This will attempt to make sure the correct Word template is attached to each project Word document that is not currently excluded from the build. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 2.
    2. Try changing the UI language for your project. To do this, choose Options, from the Tools menu in Oracle Policy Modeling. Select Environment. Selet General. Under Authoring UI Language, choose a language other than your preferred UI language, and click OK. Then repeat these steps to revert to your preferred language. Open a Word document to see if the toolbar/ribbon is now displayed correctly. If not, continue to step 3.
    3. Open one of the Word documents in your Policy Modeling project. Run the macro UpdateToolbar: In Word 2007, choose the View ribbon, then select Macros/View Macros, highlight the UpdateToolbar macro, then choose Run.
    Does this resolve your issue?

  • Problem opening Keynote 08 created PPT in Windows Office 2007

    After creating my presentation in iWork08 Keynote I save it first in its native format, and then in PPT. When I try to open the PPT in Office 2007 on a WIndows machine, all I get is an empty Window. If I open it in Office 2003, no problems. If I then save it in Office XP/2003 format, Office 2007 can then read it without issues. Has anyone else seen this behaviour, and if you have, have you been able to resolve it at all?

    I've had the exact same problem running Vista and Office 2007 except I don't have the luxury of having another computer with Office 2003. Does anyone know of a fix? This totally makes buying windows useless as a way to check ppts that we export from Keynote. Can apple fix this?

  • CRM Office 2007 - Windows 7 problem

    Hello Experts,
    I need your help about something. When I try to attach a word document to a quotation, it seems like it's opening the document but closes back.

    I am upgrading to a Windows 7 64-bit Professional from a Windows 7 Home Premium (32-bit) environment.  I have large files created with Publisher 2007, and am aware that Publisher 2007 will not function in the new environment. I have successfully
    installed and am using Office 2007 in the 64-bit machine.  If I purchase Publisher 2013, will it co-exist with Office 2007, and will files created with 2007 be accepted by Publisher 2013?
    In my experience, 32bit Office2007 works just fine on 64bit Windows7. But, I don't use Publisher myself, so I've not encountered the limitation you mention. (could you explain further the issue you experience, or provide a reference?)
    Office2013 products, when purchased through Retail, are usually provided in Click2Run installer format, and this offers co-existence with other Office versions.
    I did find these articles, which may be helpful:

  • Acrobat 8 Pro and Office 2007 Problem

    I posted this in the CS3 forum originally. They told me to post here too.
    Issue:
    When logged in as a local user (no admin rights) Word 2007 will crash the whole computer when you type a key.
    The reason I am posting on Adobe forums is that this only happens when CS3 is installed as well on the same computer.
    Troubleshooting:
    Both products work fine as a local user account, if only one or the other are installed.
    During login, Acrobat Pro will display a MSI/Installer progress bar for about 30secs. After I updated Acrobat to 8.1.3, that stops, but the Word crashing problem doesn't.
    When starting Office, setup runs everytime. It shows just a progress bar and goes for about 1min.
    On a doc, if I wait about 5min and don't do anything. A MSI install progress bar will run for "MS Office 2007 Pro", this will re-spawn for several mins. until it finally stops. After that, Word IS usable.
    No other problems with CS3.
    Fully updated both CS3 and Office 2007
    This could very well be an Office issue, but it is associated with CS3 also being installed on the same computer.
    Any help would be great!

    Forgot again! Using XP Pro sp2 and sp3.
