Visio 2010 starts configuartion on every run

Today I first time installed office on my computer. Office 2010 (Polish). Then I've uninstalled visio viewer 2007 I had. Then I installed Visio 2010 (English). And now every time visio start it runs configuration setup. I never had any kind of Microsoft
Office before on my computer. How to fix this issue? I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate edition (Polish). When I'm looking into Programs and functions there is no other Office than just installed 2010 , visio 2010

After 2 whole years of this nonsense, I decided to come up with my own targeted fix. Simply paste the below into notepad and save as a batch (.bat) file. Then run 5 times (or launch 5 times with each launch separated by a few seconds):

Since yesterday I am facing problem,when it goes in sleep mode it actually turn off and does not come up after pressing start button but every time I have to hard reset it to turn it on .It is 4 gen running on 4.3.3.Please help

so I have called HP tech support 12 times over the last 6 weeks and still my HP Officejet 4620 loses connection overnight. Of course becasue it was a birthday present I spent more time than I normally would have on this issue. While the tech are very polite they have not fixed my problem and now it is too late to return printer to store. This is a lot of money wasted and I think they need to admit this is a bug in this printer and resolve the problem!!!!!

Visio 2010 reverse engineering ora-12504 error

I am trying to create Database Model Diagram via MS Visio 2010 from my existing Oracle Database. But everytime i am having ORA-12504:TNS:listener was not given the SERVICE_NAME in CONNECT_DATA. If i use Oracle Data Modeler i dont have any error. What is the reason of this error for Visio? Here you can show the error:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/143/errorop.jpg/

Hi,
You need to complete your install by editing th tnsnames.ora file which can be found under %ORACLE_HOME%\netwrok\admin folder.
A simple tnsnames.ora entry would look like:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <machine_name or ip_address where the database & listener is running>)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL)
)Or simpler, go to the start menu, and start the Oracle Net Manager to configure your tnsnames.

How do you recover an autorecover / autosave file in Microsoft Visio 2010?

Crashed on me yesterday after 8 hours of work. The autorecover is set to every 10 minutes, but I can't find the file. I have read everything online and none of it works. If anyone can help, please let me know. Just keep in mind I know very little about
computers.

Hi,
Up to now, I don’t find easy way to recover unsaved Visio file. The only way that I find is to search all files modified on the date that you edited the Visio file, and then find the file.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/1281043e-058c-489c-a945-7266ab5c5b30/where-are-the-auto-recovery-files-stored-for-visio-2010?forum=visiogeneral
If anyone else knows another convenient way, don’t hesitate to tell us.

This Question is at least 2.5 years old. But still an issue. I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7. Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7. Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one.

Hard disk in mums macbook failed, bought a new one, formatted it first. Have tried starting it with every possible key and I either get flashing question mark folder or a cursor.

Hard disk in mums macbook failed, bought a new one, used sata adapter cable to format it for mac first. Connected it and have tried starting it with every possible key combination and I either get flashing question mark folder or a cursor. A disk is stuck in it so I can't boot from OSX, and yes I have tried every option of starting to try and eject disk but none work. HELP ME!

Five ways to eject a stuck CD or DVD from the optical drive
Ejecting the stuck disc can usually be done in one of the following ways:
1. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
      left mouse button until the disc ejects.
2. Press the Eject button on your keyboard.
3. Click on the Eject button in the menubar.
4. Press COMMAND-E.
5. If none of the above work try this: Open the Terminal application in
      your Utilities folder. At the prompt enter or paste the following:
        /usr/bin/drutil eject
If this fails then try this:
Boot the computer into Single-user Mode. At the prompt enter the same command as used above. To restart the computer enter "reboot" at the prompt without quotes.
If you have a 2010 MBP or later, then you can use Internet Recovery. Start by rebooting the computer. At the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION-R keys until a Globe appears in the upper part of the screen. This process can take upwards of 15 minutes to get connected to the Apple network servers. You should eventually see the utility screen of the Recovery HD. You may now go about the process to install Mountain Lion:
Install Lion/Mountain Lion on a New HDD/SDD
Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
Partition and Format the hard drive:
1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Problems creating a PDF from a large Visio (2010) document

Hello
Heres the setup, Windows 7, 64bit, Visio 2010 std, Adobe Acrobat X Standard, a 6.7mb .vsd file with a custom size of 6000 x 3000 mm that I want to convert to a pdf (not for printing)
Using File menu & save as in Visio converts to a pdf with great quality but cuts the page off, I've spent all day reading about the 200" issue and thats exactly where the cut off is.
Using right click on the .vsd file in explorer and convert to pdf opens the correct page size in the pdf but the drawing is screwed up, lines moved about, missing stuff etc.
I dont know
a) Why there is a difference between the 2 ways of creating the pdf
b) how to have my cake and eat it! Good quality and right size page
Unfortunately I cannot use any third party apps, am I screwed?
Thank you everyone for looking and maybe even offering advice
Cheers
Stu

I looked at every setting as I had the same problem. This is what I found resolved the issue:
1. Open Adobe Acrobat Reader and go to Edit/Preferences and change the pixel/inch ratio back to the standard.
2. In Visio, go to Design tab, Size, and then More Page Sizes, and change the page size to Custom (your needed size.) (This opens Page Setup.)
3. The printer paper size I could not change, but it didn't affect it.
The first option is what took me an hour to figure out. Hope this helps save people time.

VISIO 2010 Default File Associations

PROBLEM:
Visio 2010 is not set as the default program for opening the .vsd file type. I tried to set the default file associations to Visio 2010, but it doesn't show up in the list of default programs.
BACKGROUND:
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium. I had Visio Professional 2003 installed, and more recently, Visio viewer for more viewing newer file types. I uninstalled both programs and then installed Visio Professional 2010.
ATTEMPTED (BUT FAILED) REPAIRS:
I have repaired the installation twice, but Visio still does not show up in the default programs list and is still not set as the default association for .vsd files. At this point, the only way to open files is to first open Visio and then open the
file from within visio. It's irritating! Please help.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\VISIO.EXE\shell\open\command
verify the Default file path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office14\VISIO.EXE" "%1"
And follow Paul Herber to set .vsd default program

Protect a Visio 2010 Drawing

Is there any way to password protect a Visio 2010 drawing so that unauthorized users cannot make changes?

Hello,
As far as I know, Visio does not have any feature like Word's "Protect Document" which forces a prompt for a password. There is a very limited protection feature, please see this topic for Visio 2010 describes the functionality:

BTW, this request may be done via some VBA code.
Hope it's helpful.

App V Visio 2010 issues with App V Client 4.6 SP2

I have a Visio 2010 Pro x86 package that was sequenced using App V 4.6 SP1 on Windows 7 x86. I deploy the package to a Windows 7 x64 system running App V Client 4.6 SP2 using SCCM 2010 and can successfully open VSD files from Sharepoint 2010.
If I deploy to the same machine using App V 4.6 Management server instead of SCCM 2010, I receive error "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed" when trying to open the exact same VSD file. The Visio package is the same
on SCCM and Management server. The only difference on the machine is the deployment method of the AppV application. Any suggestions on why this is?

Microsoft excel 2010 starter

My computer came with Microsoft excel 2010 pre installed, all was working well till recently, I was able to reinstall, however I get a message that I have a licensing problem. I can't open any of my saved work on excel, or word. I did have a computer virus and had to restore my computer back to original state.

Hi:
I have zipped up and attached the Office 2010 Starter installation file under attachments below.
I have used this to successfully reinstall Office 2010 Starter in the past.
Since the program is free for use, there shouldn't be any issues with licensing as long as it is installed on a qualifying PC with W7.
In order to use the file, be connected to the internet, download, unzip and double click to run the file.
It will contact the Microsoft Office 2010 Starter download site and reinstall the program for you--both Word Starter and Excel Starter.

Changes from Visio 2010 to 2013 - highlighting entire line drawing document with text fields and changing line colors

I work with very large visio drawings that are basically line drawings (network drawings) with text boxes indicating equipment location. We work in future and current drawings, future has colored lines indicating connection type and objects have text in
them that indicate if they are new by having red text. Current drawings have all black lines and black text.
Here's my dilemma, previously I would Ctrl+A and then change all text and all lines to black in Visio 2010, everything would change no problem. In Visio 2013 every text box now get's a black border around it, I've tried selecting all text boxes at once
and trying to remove the line but no luck.
These drawings are HUGE and it takes me a good hour just to change between future and current where previously it took me seconds. I have many coworkers and we're all experiencing he same issue with the move to 2013.
Is there a macro or some vb script I can utilize to select all text boxes and remove the black outline?
Hope you can help!

try this macro
Sub Simple()
Dim sh As Shape, counter As Integer
ActiveWindow.SelectAll
For counter = 1 To ActiveWindow.Selection.Count
Set sh = ActiveWindow.Selection(counter)
If Len(sh.Text) > 0 Then sh.Cells("Geometry1.Noline").FormulaU = "IF(LEN(SHAPETEXT(TheText))>0,1,0)"
Next
MsgBox "All text borders set invisible"
End Sub
if in your drawings you have only lines and text label (NOT rectangles, circles and other shapesconteined text for example) this macro can help !
