Visio 2007 launch problem with Office 2013 installed "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio..."

Running under WIN7-64 bit with Office 2013. Requests reinstall every time it is run. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. No change. Office 2013 does not recognize that Visio 2007 is installed. Copy paste operations between Visio and Word 2013 don't
work. Tried disabling sharepoint access for Visio 2007 and did a repair for Office 2013. No change.Tried various compatibility modes. No change. Ran Microsoft troubleshooter which verified there is a compatibility issue but provided no solution.
Tried the following...
Type the following command, and then press Enter:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
no change

Hi,
Based on the situation, I recommend you try to use locale administer account to login in the computer.
Then we re-install Visio 2007, if you solve the issue,please let me know.

Visio 2013 startup problem "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio..."

Hello,
I am getting the "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio Professional 2013" window on every load of this program. I have found no resolutions from Google searches. I have tried a full reinstall of Visio, registry modifications
(per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2685120?wa=wsignin1.0), tried running it in safe mode (still happens), tried a clean boot (still happens). I'm out of ideas. Does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi,
Try the following method:
If you have an earlier version of Visio installed, such as Visio 2003 or Visio 2007 or Visio 2010, follow these steps:
1.In Windows 7 or Windows Vista, click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, and then select Run.
In Windows XP, click Start, and then click Run.
2.Type the following command, and then press Enter:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
3.(Optional) Instead of typing the command line, you can copy it to your clipboard, right-click an empty section of the Run box, select Paste, and then press Enter.
4.Verify that the problem is resolved.

Visio 2013 startup problem "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visio Professional 2013

Hello,
I am having a frustrating problem with Visio as it is opening. It keeps displaying the message that I have in the title about it trying to configure. I have tried the following:
reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Visio\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1
To manually fix this issue, run 'regedit' and manually change the value of [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] to Visio.Drawing.11 (if using the Visio client) or VisioViewer.Viewer (if using the Visio Viewer).
secedit /configure
/cfg %windir%\inf\defltbase.inf
/db defltbase.sdb
/verbose
What's strange is the user profile that it was installed under works fine, but any other user that logs onto the computer gets this message every time. I even tried exporting the entire Current User Office chain from the registry to the other user
and that still didn't work
I can get it to work if I create a shortcut and put in a "/noreg" handle at the end of the target, but that doesn't help with opening files.
Please help!

Hi dustyb23,
This issue may be caused by the [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] key not being equal to “Visio.Drawing.11" or equal to “VisioViewer.Viewer” if you have Visio Viewer Installed.
To resolve it, we can repair Visio first, from Control Panel > Programs and Features > Visio > Change > Repair. If it doesn’t work, we can also reinstall Visio.
However, if the repair/reinstall/configuration does not complete successfully, the user will continue to receive this message at each launch of Visio. To manually fix this issue, run 'regedit' and manually change the value of [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.vsd] to
Visio.Drawing.11 (if using the Visio client) or VisioViewer.Viewer (if using the Visio Viewer).
For more detail information:

If there is anything I can do for you regarding this issue, feel free to post back.

Please wait while windows configures microsoft visual studio professional 2013

After installing visual community 2013 and rebooting visual studio works fine but all other microsoft office programs display "please wait while windows configures microsoft visual studio professional 2013" and continues the installation for
about 1 minute before the program starts. I tried deleting mso.dll and reinstalling but it is still the same. Any help would be appreciated?

Hi iwallhead,
Then can your VS work fine? Anyway, please upload the installation log.
Use a tool named collect.exe to collect the log file. Download
collect.exeand
run it directly. The utility creates a compressed cabinet of all the VS and .NET logs to
%TEMP%\vslogs.cab. Please upload the
vslogs.cab file on onedrive.
I will help check if any install error exists.

Launching VB6 Editor after installing Visual Studio 2013 results in "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio..."

I have had various versions of Visual Studio installed beside Visual Basic 6.0 Enterprise for some time with no problems, most recently Visual Studio 2012 Premium.
I recently installed Visual Studio 2013 Premium, and now every time I open VB6 I get a dialog that says "Please wait while Windows configures Microsoft Visual Studio Professional 2013" that shows a progress bar. After it finishes (30 seconds or
so), it launches again and again and finally VB6 will open. This happens with each instance of VB6, regardless if I've already done it once and never run VS2013 in between.
If I cancel the dialog, I get this error message in a dialog: "Error 1712. One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." Several more "Please wait"...
dialogs will appear and if I continue to cancel, eventually I'll get the VB6 editor. It appear to work fine despite the error messages.
It seems to me that the VS2013 installer flagged some dll's or other files to be rolled back whenever starting VB6. It doesn't appear to be necessary, and I'd like to avoid playing the "Please wait" wack-a-cancel-button game before launching each
instance of VB6 (or waiting several minutes for no reason). So how do I fix this?
Note: I've seen something similar happen in Outlook on a different PC when upgrading from 2010 to 2013. The same sort of "Please wait"... dialog would appear each time I opened Outlook. Judging by the "similar" questions that popped up when
entering this forum post, I'd say this is a general problem with upgrading older versions or installing newer versions of major Microsoft software side-by-side.
/* Don Reynolds */

I found the answer!
I was having the exact same issue, and I was search for a solution and I happened across the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f4b0fd38-f4f9-41ea-bd8d-834203a175d2/building-visual-studio-2010-project-triggers-please-wait-while-windows-configures-visual-studio?forum=vssetup&prof=required
Scroll a small bit down, and there is a post by Barry Wang explaining that you need to use event viewer to find out what is missing. Anyway, I opened event viewer, then open VS 6, then hit refresh in the event viewer (under Windows Logs -> Application)
and saw a warning message from MsiInstaller. It gave me the following message:
Detection of product '{9C593464-7F2F-37B3-89F8-7E894E3B09EA}', feature 'Visual_Studio_Professional_x86_enu', component '{E3FF99AA-78B9-4A06-8A74-869E9F65E1FE}' failed. The resource 'C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\URTInstallPath_GAC\' does
not exist.
I opened an elevated command prompt, I navigated to the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework folder and verified that 'URTInstallPath_GAC' didn't exist, and then I did "md URTInstallPath_GAC".
Closed and reopened VS 6, and it instantly opened - no "Please wait" message.
Now this may or may not be the same problem you are having (problem is - I have had it happen on two separate computers now with VS 6 and VS 2013 installed), but it should point you in the right direction. In fact, you should be able to use the Event Viewer
for anytime the "Please wait" message shows up for any application, and then once there find out what is really missing.

'Please wait while Windows configure iTunes' with every iTunes version.

Basically at first bootup when trying to launch it comes up with this. Takes 1-2 minutes to 'configure'
Once it 'configures' for this bootup iTunes is fine, until the machine is restarted and then it happens again.
Tried to remove the SC Info folder as suggested by Apple Enterprise Support, tried adding System and Administrators as an owner for the key with full control.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Apple Computer, Inc.\iTunes
Tried to get the prefs files recreated
Tried to run directly from the executable.
Each subsequent version of iTunes I hope there's a fix but there's none. Hesitant to update itunes on 900 user machines until this thing is fixed.
I know there's a load of this problem out there but would really appreciate any new suggestions to try, or maybe get Apple support on board with trying to fix their product once and for all.
Thanks

I am using iTunes 7.1.1

Problem with Office 2013 documents after PC resumes from sleep

Have a number of PCs in a work environment that exhibit the following error messages when they are woken from a sleep state and the user was working on a Word or PowerPoint document via a network share.
PowerPoint error: The file you were working with was modified during suspend mode, and the original version is no longer available. <file path and name.ppt> must be re-saved.
Word error: Word cannot establish a network connection with this document after the system resumed from suspend mode. Save the document into a different file to keep any changes.
Having searched the error message I can see that hot fixes were created to fix the issue in Word 2007 and 2010, but nothing seems to relate to Office 2013.
All the PCs have the latest OS and Office updates.
I tried the NetworkAvailableTimeInSeconds reg fix from this link - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2626998/en-gb , and obviously applied it to the Office 2013 key, but to no avail. The additional steps talk about applying the available hot fix, but this
is not applicable to Office 2013.
Information:
All PCs Windows 8.1 Enterprise and Office Professional Plus 2013
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

I have the same issue with 8.1 and Office 2013, and yes, Office is at SP1 (15.0.4631.1002). I've likewise done the Reg fixes suggested for 2007/2010, but still have the issue. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks,
John

Office 2010 App-V on machine with Office 2013 installed

Hi,
After a migration to locally installed Office 2013 I need to restore access to Access 2010 to some users for a legacy app. Ideally I want to use App-V. I have made an App-V package of Access 2010 following the MS guidance. It runs correctly
but every time after running it, the next time you run an Office 2013 app it causes Office 2013 to perform a repair operation, this succeeds but has to be done every time the 2010 Access is run. I can't find any reasons in the log files or in the event
viewer, any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks, I couldn't really find anything but it looks as though this could be just the way it is.
from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2784668
When you start a version of Access on a computer that has multiple versions of Access installed, the Windows Installer may start, and
a message that states that the Windows Installer is preparing to install Access may be displayed before Access starts.
Every time that you start Access 2003, Access 2007, or Access 2010 after you use Access 2013, the Windows Installer repair operation registers
that version of Access. Similarly, the Windows Installer repair operation registers Access 2010 every time that you start it after you use an earlier version of Access. This does not occur when you start Access 2002, nor does it occur when you start the same
version of Access again.
Is this likely to also apply even when running App-V?

Display problems with Office 2013

Hi all,
I have deployed Office 2013 on a few laptops (some old, some new, all running Win7 x64) without any problems.
I have some users who use dual monitors, connected using USB-to-VGA devices by (among others) Star-Tek, HP, and Matrox.
In every case we've tried, the Office app seems to display OK on the external screen, but mouse clicks and keystrokes don't reach it, ie you can't actually do anything at all. Sometimes the display is corrupted, ie windows are not properly drawn, pieces
are missing, especially if you drag the pane around on the monitor.
Drag the open app window back onto the local laptop display and it starts to work normally. No error messages are seen.
What's going on here?
I know O2013 needs DirectX 10, but I doubt these old laptop displays support that properly anyway. The hardware is IBM Thinkpad T61's at the oldest - on their builtin display all is well - but we've seen the same effect on newer Thinkpads (Edge 15, Edge
320, Edge 520), HP ProBook, Dell Latitude, in fact every single one I have tried.
I don't find any references to this issue on line, can anyone provide a pointer? Just now it's a show-stopper for deploying 2013.
No sig is a good sig

Yes that was the solution.
Thanks a lot, I must have tried about eight different external graphics adaptors before finding this.
Bit of a black mark to MS here, imho. Surely it would better to assume that the latest-and-greatest graphics hardware is
not present, but can be turned on if required, rather than to assume that it is present, but can be turned off if not required? Or even detect it somehow?
Anyway.
Problem solved, thanks again.

Office 365 with Office 2013 MSI Language Pack on Windows 7 machine.

Hello All,
I have Office 2013 MSI Language Pack installed on Windows 7 machine. After deploying Office 365 using ODT, Lync is crashing.
Is Office 2013 MSI Language Pack compatible with Office 365?
Thanks in Advance !!

Hi,
Have you checked the log file? Does it record the error details there?
So you only have the language pack on your computer, not the entire Office 2013 instance? Office 2013 MSI Language Pack doesn't work with Office 365. Try to remove the language pack then try again.
Also, to plan a multi-language deployment of Click-to-Run-based Office installations, please refer to this article:

Problem with Office document structure when exporting in Windows vs full-text indexing in SQL Server

Do I need to find the residues and remove them - I wouldn't know where to look!
Could Microsoft Works be causing a conflict? Should I remove that?
Do I need to uninstall the whole suite again and re-install doing something different than the "recommended" options?
I really appreciate your help and input
Many thanks

Windows 8.1 system with new Office 2013 install not pulling down any Office 2013 updates from my SCCM 2012 SP1 server

Hi,
I've just setup a new Windows 8.1 system and added to my SCCM 2012 SP1 server and all is good and it pulled down all the correct Windows updates and pulls down automatically the FEP updates that are distributed from SCCM 2012 daily.
I just installed Office 2013 on this system and have activated it as necessary. The problem is that the system doesn't seem to be pulling down any of the Office 2013 updates that have distributed thru SCCM. I have other systems with
Office 2013 installed and they have pulled down Office 2013 updates in the past when I published them.
If I look at the Office 2013 updates in the SCCM console software section, I can see that for example it shows that Office 2013 SP1 (x86) is needed by one system and installed on 8 other systems and shows as downloaded and deployed.
I've restarted the new system multiple times and also tried to force a software update check from the Configuration Manager applet but nothing seems to happen.
What can I check to try and determine what the problem is?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

Yes, the 8.1 system is a member of collection where the update deployment is targeted.
Are there any specific logs I should check in the client? If I check the WindowsUpdate.log I can see messages about the machine pulling down the FEP updates but that's all it appears to be doing.
in CCM\logs, focus on the updatehandler and updatedeployment, to begin with
