Trying to access SharePoint / Office 365 Server options from the browser
When I use the Open With Explorer view of a SharePoint library and open a document from there, I am prompted to Check Out & Open (or just open) the file. And then from the open file, under the File menu, I have an option for SharePoint / Office 365 Server, to check the file back in and/or to update Document Properties. This is the exact functionality I am looking for. My question is, why don't I have this option when I open the PDF in one of these scenarios:
direct from the browser (within SharePoint)
from a synced library
outside of SharePoint (i.e. from the Desktop)
Seems like a good question for a SharePoint user forum.
Be well...

Why don't some users have option File SharePoint/Office 365 Server Check In?
All team members have the same permissions in SharePoint. We can all check a doc out in SharePoint. Some of us then have an option on the File menu in Acrobat that says "SharePoint/Office 365 Server" with a "Check In" option under that. Some team members do not have that option.
How can we fix this so that everyone has the ability to easily check in an update to SharePoint?
Cheryl BowsherHi Cheryl,
Check version of Acrobat of all users, it should be same and updated, i.e. 11.0.6
Does your user get "Check In" option through web browser?
What is the version of SharePoint you are using and what is the exact workflow?

Trying to access SharePoint Site, Hosted in Azure, from public Internet
I am looking for basic guidance on how to browse a SharePoint 2013 Environment, Hosted in
Azure, from a PC not located on the same network. In other words from an internet connected PC. I believe this was working until some Azure or Windows update took place, and now I can no longer connect to my environment
via SharePoint Designer, IE, or ShareGate migration tool. (I am NOT looking to open up a public facing website with Anonymous access.)
Currently when I try to access http://Server_Name.cloudapp.net I end up looking at a IIS 8 Splash Screen.
There seems to be a combination of settings that need to be in order for this to happen. I believe they fall into the following topics Any help is appreciated.
Azure Settings:
DNS name: SERVER_NAME.cloudapp.net
ENDPOINTS
IIS Settings:
Bindings
DNS Server Settings:
Host A Records
SharePoint Settings:
Alternate Access Mappings
Other:
Hosts File
Windows Server Firewall
Hi,
How did you publish the SharePoint site hosted in Azure to Internet?
I recommend to follow the link below to see if the issue still occurs:
http://thuansoldier.net/?p=4044
As Microsoft Azure changes public virtual IP address every time you turn on your virtual machine, please make sure you check the new address then assign it to SharePoint AAM again.
Thanks,

Possible ways to connect SharePoint Office 365 to External databases
Hi,
Is there a way we can connect SharePoint Office 365 to Oracle & MySQL Databases and also is it possible for these databases to feed data to SharePoint Office 365 rather than SharePoint pulling the data from these databases.
ThanksHi,
As far as I know, it is not feasible to connect SharePoint Office 365 to Oracle & MySQL Databases by OOTB. But you can consider deploying the Business Connectivity Services (BCS) which can access data from WCF Data Services and SQL Server Azure Connectors.
Also you can consider three part tools.
For more information, you can have a look at the thread:

Hi team,
i have been building up native applications and has access to Microsoft tenant in azure and there i have already the mobile application. Also i can add the webapi's to my application once when i went to configure tab and hit add on the bottom.
So from here i can add office 365 exchange online api and set the delegated permissions to required field.
Also i went through couple of articles and videos which shows how to get access to office 365 api.
http://www.microsoftvirtualacademy.com/training-courses/deep-dive-integrate-office-365-apis-in-your-mobile-device-apps?m=11496
As mentioned in video we add the connected service and it sign in to microsoft account and register the app.
Also add some client id to App.xaml . And when we went to tenant application page we can see the new registered app with a client id.
Please let me know if i already has the application in azure and i have added the office 365 exchange online api , then shall i need to do above steps or i can directly hit the api service Uri's.
thanks,
NIteshHi,

New-PSDrive to SharePoint Office 365
How can I create a New-PSDrive to an instance of Office 365 over WebDAV?
I know I can do it by using the map network drive in the Windows Shell (then specyfing connect to Web site).
Just passing -Credentials into New-PsDrive does not work, I believe because Office 365 requires passing SAML tokens.
Please help.
Thx,
AdamThere is a comprehensive example of drive mapping to Office 365 with Powershell including the automation of Internet Explorer to perform the authentication here

SharePoint Office 365 development
We want to do some POC on SharePoint Office 365 development so that with same expertise later we can develop for our customer. Here I have few question on this:
Can we use SharePoint Office 365 development for Farm level deployment ?
Or SharePoint Office 365 is used exclusively for development of Apps ?
Is Napa tool necessary for Farm level solution? (I know it is required for Apps development)
Basically we want to develop farm solution not any apps, can we use SharePoint Office 365 for this?
Can we develop office 365 application in a virtual machine without any internet connection i.e. without connecting to the web or Microsoft online?
Thanks in advance for your reply.Answers for your questions
1. Can we use SharePoint Office 365 development for Farm level deployment ?
Answer : No. Only Sandbox
2. SharePoint Office 365 is used exclusively
for development of Apps?
Answer : No. It also supports for .Wsp with some restrictions on code
3. Napa
tool necessary for Farm level solution?
Answer: Office 365 doesn't support Farm Solution.
Apps only run in different context or web. -
I'm moving my account from a POP server to an Office 365 server. Before I change my server settings, do I need to export or save emails that I've already downloaded?
Thanks!Incidentally, my first thought was to map a network share from the NAS to my computer, so that my music files appear on the Z: drive, say on my computer. I could then set up iTunes to store music etc in that folder, and to copy all new items to that folder. However, if I do that, all that'll happen is that on my NAS, the library file will become out of date as I add music to the collection but not to the index.

Path does not exit - While trying to save file on SharPoint Server 2013 from client machine
Hi,
I have installed Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise Edition on my testing Lab environment (On VM Workstation 10) on Windows Server 2012 with SQL server 2012, I can access all files stored at SharePoint Server from any physical machine, I can share
a single file among different people to work simultaneously, but here i stuck on saving any file from client machine to directly on SharePoint Server, Attached is the snap shot, whenever I try to save any file directly It says Path Does Not Exist, If I drag
and drop any file directly to SharePoint I do not see any error message.
I read from different posts that I need to Enable Desktop Experience Feature on Server 2012, which I installed but no positive result gained :(
I will appreciate for any possible help?

I am trying to remote into a Windows Server 2003 from a Windows 7 machine and having issues
I am trying to remote into a Windows Server 2003 from a Windows 7 machine. It says "The terminal server has exceeded the maximum number of allowed connections".
My first stop in trying to solve this problem was here:
[URL="http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/command-line-hack-for-terminal-server-has-exceeded-the-maximum-number-of-allowed-connections/"]howtogeek.com[/URL]
And it says:
[I]
[INDENT]This problem happens because Windows only allows two remote terminal services connections when you are in administrative mode, and you’ve either got two people already on that server, or more likely, you’ve got a disconnected session that still thinks
it is active.
The problem with this error is that you have to actually get on the server console to fix the problem if the server isn’t in a domain. ([B]If you are in a domain, then just open Terminal Services Manager and log off or disconnect the sessions[/B])[/INDENT][/I]
So it seems to suggest that all I have to do really is to run the Terminal Services Manager but I cannot find it.
This web site from mssqltips.com [URL="http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1981/remote-desktop-error-terminal-server-has-exceeded-the-maximum-number-of-allowed-connections/"](click here)[/URL] says all I need to do is first execute "mstsc /
admin" from the command line. But, when I do that, I get a message when I try to remote to the server, that says this: "To log on to this remote console session, you must have administrative permissions on this computer".
So, what now? What do you suggest?Hi Bobby,
Yes, it is by design. By default, Windows Server only accepts two concurrent administrative sessions (Administrative Mode). It means that only two administrators can work on the server at
the same time.
If you would like more concurrent sessions, you need to purchase RDS CALs, install Terminal Services related server roles with proper configurations on the server.
