Uploading the same document

Can someone please clarify what will happen when the same document is sent to another user who downloads the document, edits the document, then emails it back to be re-uploaded? Also same scenario but the title has been changed!

Two things can happen:
User can select the option to over-write the document in SharePoint
User can select to not over-write the document in SharePoint, which will then just add to the version (if versioning is enabled)

  • Multiple link of the same document

    1.I heard that when I buy a windows server, there comes also a free edition/foundation edition of sharepoint. Is it right?
    2. When I upload a document to the free edition of sharepoint, is there any position for me also to enter the metadata of the document to facilitate future searching of the document? Please show me some screenshots.
    3. Under ambiguous circumstances where a document can be put into two locations/folders, people suggest to set a multiple link to this document, so that when I click the link inside either one of the folders, I can get the same document. It means there is
    no need to upload the same document to both folders. It is not simply a normal shortcut which we usually come across in window explorer. Can Sharepoint do this?

    1. Yes, it's called SharePoint Foundation Server.
    2. Of course, this is a core functionality of SharePoint. See
    https://www.google.nl/search?q=sharepoint+document+library+metadata+screenshot&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=d9nIU6usNofGPNG6gPAF&ved=0CB8QsAQ&biw=1400&bih=748 for screenshots.
    3. No, although you can use the document id service to generate a permanent link and use that link in a metadata field to refer to the source doc. Not in the free version, though

  • Two folders pointing to the same document

    Hi,
    can two KM folders point to the same document?
    for e.g.
    say I have two users 1) a business person 2) a technical person.
    I have two folder structures 1) a technical structure 2) a business structure with each having access to the all the folders structures.
    say tech folder structure has a folder called ep and business folder structure has a folder called client1. The technical person uploads a document of client1 project that is related to ep in the ep folder that is part of the technical strucure.
    How do I make it possible to access the document in both the folders(ep and client1)? I don't want redundant documents as it can cause the changes not to get reflected.

    Hi,
      You can do that using taxonomies. You upload the document, assign metadata and then by mean TREX index is classified.
      You create KM Navigation Iviews to point these taxonomies folders.
      You can read about taxonomies:  http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/6c/5145b1d1de11d6b2cc00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm

  • Is it possible to split the same document, Word-style?

    I don't know what else to call it. In Word, it was "split."
    I often edit two parts of the same document simultaneously, but in Pages 08, I haven't been able to figure this out. "Two Up" is not what I'm looking for.
    For example, what I would do in Word was KS ("keyboard shortcut to") split the document, KS half the document to another page (Go To), KS copy information from one part of the document, KS to the other half of the document and paste/modify... in essence, I was editing two parts of the document without touching the mouse.
    It saved a LOT of time. Any help here? I've checked the Pages 08 PDF manual. Naming the software "Pages" was also kind of stupid, because Google searches come up with everything BUT software hits. I have the same issues with Numbers... kind of problematic naming conventions.
    lol reminds me of the band "Live." Before I knew their music intimately (and members' names), they were impossible to find interviews for and run searches on...

    Unfortunately, no, & it still isn't available in iWork '09. I didn't use it too often in AppleWorks, but it was very handy to have. Another "missing" feature is the ability to have two windows of the same document open at once. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

    How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then?  That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

  • Open multiple occurances of the same document

    We are running reader 9.1.1 and need to be able to open multipe occurances of the same document. Yes, I know how to open the same document multiple time with <window><new window> the problem with this is editing a form in one window changes it in all windows. I need to ope independant occurances or the same form. Can this be done? The /n switch will not work for this either! Hope somebody has an idea.

    Simple solution, yes. Unfortunatly its not that simple... Having multiple copies of the same document posses issues when updating the document. This doucument is updated almost daily and is distibuted to many users across a network... Having to have users open multiple copies of the document creates many logistical and use issues.

  • How do I tell photoshop to stop opening the same document every time I start Photoshop CS6?

    Hi all,
    Each and every time I start up Photoshop CS6 (running the latest version I think....13.0.1 x64) on my Mac Running 10.7.5
    the same document opens up. As if it thinks it crashed and needs to recover it. Im a member of Creative Cloud in case that matters.
    I have saved the document and closed it properly and yet - it returns every time I start up the program. Can anyone help?
    Its not a killer issue but extremely annoying.
    thank you.

    Yeah - literally can't find anything remotely similar. If anyone knows where I might find the thread to a fix I'd be mightly helpful.
    Haven't a clue how to word to it any differently to try to find the answer.

  • How can I use two different page orientations in the same document?

    I am trying to have both portrait and landscape page orientations in the same document.  Pages doesn't seem to like this.  Is there a way?

    I tried to comment on another thread about this same issue, but the thread was closed.
    In the other thread; however, some asked why rotating one pages was necessary, and if they knew then maybe there would be reason to create the function.
    Well, I don't know about why anyone else needs it, but for me it's for the papers I have to write for my masters program. The professors like to have the rubric attached to the bottome of the document so they easily grade and keep things organized. They of course give directions on how to easily change the orientation of the last page in Word, but not all of use Word, or even want to use Word. Maybe I need to ditch Pages and go to Word? I'd really hate to do that!
    So, come on Apple, let's get this feature added, stat!

  • Putting two separate images side by side in the same document

    Hello
    I'm new to the community and hope I'm posting this question in the right area.
    I've downloaded the 30 day free trial of Photoshop CC 2014 and I'm attempting to put 2 separate images side by side in the same document based on an instructional video I watched on Lynda.
    I know of one way to do this but, the Lynda's instructor method made things look so much easier and quicker to do.
    He didn't create a new canvas or make any image size adjustments.
    He basically imported 2 images, used the move tool to drag the open image and drop it in the the tab heading of the other image.
    After doing that, he ended up with two layers, the background layer and the "layer 1" layer.
    He then was able to use the move tool again to position layer 1 in the document and then use the expand all option (I think it was) so both images were visible side by side.
    He moved the layer 1 layer to the far left that it almost wasn't visible and that's why he used the expand all function.
    The problem I'm running into is, I'm not getting the "layer 1" after doing the drag and drop.
    The only layer I have is the background layer.
    The odd thing is, that was the only layer he had as well after he did the drag and drop.
    But, after he gave the tip of holding the shift key while the drag and drop was being done to center the images, it was then, the layer 1 layer appeared in his layers pallet.
    I tried holding the shift key as well and I still can't get the layer 1 to appear.
    I've watched the video a few times to see if I missed something he did and i can't see that I have.
    How do I get layer 1 to appear so I can complete the rest of the process described in the video?
    If any members here have full access to the Lynda videos, this is the one I watched:
    The instructions for this particular process is about half way through the 4 minute video.
    I've sent basically the same question to Lynda but it could take up to 3 business days for a reply and I was hoping someone here might have an answer sooner.

    Fleming doesn't want to extend the canvas, mind you.
    P Fleming wrote:
    He didn't create a new canvas or make any image size adjustments.
    He also doesn't want to drag layers but drag image tabs. 
    And the video tutorial ends up with two different images on top of each other, contrary to his initially desired "side by side" arrangement.
    It's all for the birds, IMO.             

  • F.13 Line items of the same document are cleared together

    Good afternoon all,
    My doubt I think is quite easy to answer. One accountant of my client has posted a reclassification document (from one GL account to the same GL account but with different profit center). The GL account has open item management.
    Key conditions for F.13 are Amount and XREF3 fields.
    When we execute the program both positions of the same document are cleared together what could be something like a deletion of the document.
    Is it OK? Is it possible to exclude the clearing of positions of the same document?
    Please let me know.
    Kind regards
    Daniel Lietor

    Hi,
    System will clear the debit and credit transactions for a GL account based on the criteria maintained in OB74 - table TF123.
    It does not matter whether it is for the same document or different documents. At the time of automatic clearing, It will search for the items which matches the given criteria and clear it.
    Thanks,
    Aman

  • "No connectivity with the server" error for one document but not the other, in the same document library

    We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server.  The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
    just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option.  If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem.  One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
    the same document library!  The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure.  She can read the older document, but not the new one.
    It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error.  We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
    created profile does not experience the error for these people.  Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears.  When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
    were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear.  We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy.  We are rebooting between
    logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
    The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
    2005 SP4.  SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
    We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries.  We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries.  We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
    It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files.  It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes.  One person experiencing
    the errors is a Site Collection Admin.  That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file.  They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
    file gave them an error.   In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
    We've tried lots of things including:
    Deleting IE cache
    Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
    Running IE without add-ons
    Upgrading and Downgrading IE
    Uninstalling and re-installing IE
    Reinstalling our SSL certs
    Repairing Office
    Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool 
    Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
    Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
    Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
    Toggling the location of checked out files
    Adding the site in the trusted sites list
    Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
    Making sure the WebClient service is started
    Rebooting the machine (lol :)
    This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing.  There aren't
    "check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
    We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next.  Thanks!
    -Richard.
    PS  I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?

    It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes.  It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error.  I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
    various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
    I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done.  I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
    but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster.  Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
    to get back to work.  Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore.  The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
    in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
    When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error.  I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error.  Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem. 
    I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
    So the process went as follows: 
    Reboot and log into the machine as another user
    Delete the profile and associated registry key
    Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
    Reboot and log in as the other user
    xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
    Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
    I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring.  That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
    before which didn't fix the issue. 
    So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
    What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
    One way to do this was to:
    Reboot and log in as another user
    Rename the c:\users profile folder
    Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
    Reboot and log in as the other user
    Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
    Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
    Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
    Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
    We've tried this on a couple machines and it works.  I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
    We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
    We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
    Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
    Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
    Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
    Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
    Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
    I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it.

  • How do I hyperlink to a page in the same document in pages

    I have used the help and also read the Pages user manual on how to hyperlink to a specific word or words in the same document and nothing works. The main problem is the when I try to set a bookmark the + is not highlighted to add the word or words that I highlighted.

    Tom,
    Well, I was considering that a blank page requires a page break, and since you can insert a page break after a page that is so full that adding one more character would force a new page, it isn't exactly on the previous page, either. It's kind of between the pages.
    Nevertheless, if you show invisibles, the page break shows itself on the previous page, and if you select it for your bookmark, it will jump to the end of the previous page, so basically your objection is valid. If you have a completely blank page it would be better to type a single space onto the page and use that for the bookmark. I think this could only be the case for the final page in a document; every page before that must have at least a page break or a section break on it.

  • Same colors appearing different in the same document

    I have a document where I have filled different table cells with the same RGB color. However, they sometimes appear as two different shades, one darker than the other. I checked to be sure it was the same RGB color and it was, but it appears quite different both in InDesign and when I export it to pdf. Any idea why the same color is appearing differently in the same document?

    It doesn't appear to be a monitor problem, as the colors are different both on my laptop screen and on my external monitor. As I do not have the ability to print a hard copy before the file gets sent to the printer to make a proof, I need to know which is the "right" color (or at least the once closest to how it will print). Even if the colors are showing up differently on screen, if the swatch for both is exactly the same, will it show up as the same color once the actual hard copy is printed?

    wont send on email when saved as powerpoint document as its 59mb, yet the same document on my mac saved as powerpoint is 7mb ?

    Came here to complain about this maddening feature. Why it doesn't save the PDF out to a separate instance of the document is beyond me. PLENTY of us want to save the PDF without the layers, and want the PSD separate.
    "Oh good, I've completed this document.... let me just save it out as a PDF for client delivery and... Now all the work is gone."
    Genius, Adobe, genius. But it's cool--we'll just keep paying out the nose on a subscription basis with no fix for small errors like this.
