Visio Pro 2013 killing Outlook/Office Pro 2013
I have a new Dell Latitude E6530 laptop that came with Office 2013 Pro - which worked just fine. I recently added Visio 2013 Pro via a PC card download. It would not allow for an automatic activation (which concerned me) but would allow for a telephone
activation. As soon as I did that, Outlook would take forever to launch. When I launch Outlook in Safe mode, it works fine. I have tried disabling all of the add-ins in Outlook - it still not take forever to launch (45 minutes +) but also locks-up
while in-use. It seems to communicate with Exchange fine - no issues with downloading new email messages, but when I select a new folder or after viewing an email it locks up. I have removed and reinstalled Outlook - no joy. The latest step: I have removed
Visio (again) and tried to re-launch Outlook and it still is deathly slow.
All of the other Office products work just fine: Word, Excel, and Powerpoint have no issues. The worst part is Dell blames Microsoft for Visio causing the problem and Microsoft blames Dell for Office/Outlook causing the problem.
Can someone help? THANKS!
Cheers, Jay
Hi,
Do you install the Visio viewer? If you have it, please go to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features and uninstall it.
If you don't install it, please try to rename the NormalEmail.dotm. It is the default template that opens when creating a new mail message. When you start Outlook in Safe Mode, it is not loaded.
Please go to the following location:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates
Find the NormalEmail.dotm file, rename it to ".old". Outlook then will create a new one, check if this issue persist with the new NormalEmail.dotm file.
If the issue still exists, please upload the event log to do further research.

OWA receives mail long before Outlook (Exchange 2013 with Outlook 2010 and 2013)
I recently upgraded my Exchange environment to Exchange 2013 SP1. The Outlook users are now experiencing a delay when receiving email. When they do arrive they appear in batches, often 20-45 minutes after they were sent, from a mailbox on the same server.
Additionally, the mail appears instantly when you monitor the inbox using OWA. The users are experiencing this on both Outlook 2010 and 2013 clients configured in both cached and non-cached modes. This appears to be a problem with Outlook connecting to Exchange.
Any suggestion about how to correct this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!Hi,
From your description, when users use OWA, they can receive emails normally. But if they use Outlook 2010 or Outlook 2013, there is a delay in receiving emails.
I recommend you use the Outlook safe mode to determine whether the problem is caused by add-ins. Also, please make sure users have installed the Outlook latest Service Pack.
If the issue persist, please create a new profile and check the result.
Hope it helps.

Remote Desktop Service activation of Office Pro Plus 2013
The Activation of Office Pro Plus 2013 is not "sticking" in a 2008 R2 RDP Session. Office Pro Plus 2013 is installed on the RDS Host. Users authorized to access via their Office 365 Pro Plus Subscriptions.
Office Pro+ 2013 is installed and activated with appropriate MAK. Every few days or so a handful of RDS users are requested to activate the Office they are using during their sessions.
Any guidance would be phenomenal!
Thanks

Is Adobe Acrobat 9.5.5 Incompatible With Microsoft Office Pro 2013?
I have Adobe Acrobat 9.5.5 and recently upgraded from Microsoft Office Pro 2007 to 2013. I no longer have the option to save e-mails to PDF format. When I go into Outlook> File> Options> Add-Ins> Manage COM Add-Ins and place a check mark next to PDFM Outlook, I get "Load Behavior: Not loaded. A run time error occurred during the loading of the COM add-in." Does this indicate that Acrobat 9.5.5 is not compatible with Office Pro 2013?
Hi there p-eleven,
Support for Office 2013 was first added with the Acrobat 11.0.1 update. Please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/compatible-web-browsers-pdfmaker-applications.html

Acrobat X Pro für Outlook 2013?
Guten Tag,
vielleicht kann hier jemand helfen: Unter Outlook 2013 lässt sich bei mir Acrobat X Pro nicht einbinden. Ich möchte die Mails gerne direkt als PDF konvertieren, so wie es auch unter Outlook 2007 möglich war. Ich nutze als Betriebssystem Win 7 Pro / 64 bit und Office 2013 Pro / 64 bit. Ich wäre sehr froh, wenn hier jemand einen Tipp für mich hat, vielen Dank!Hi Herzogwo,
It is neither the problem with Acrobat X nor with Outlook 2013. You wont be able to get PDFmaker plugin enable on outlook as Outlook2103 is not compatible with Acrobat X.
For reference :: Compatible web browsers and PDFMaker applications.
For work around. Click on File Choose Print. From drop down from printer choice window choose Adobe PDF printer. And Print the document.

I'm running Windows 7 and use Office Professional 2013. With the most recent auto update, now when I attempt to double click a Word or Excel file to open it, Office Small Business 2007 attempts to open and configure. Although I had Office SB 2007 on a previous
laptop, I don't believe it was ever on this laptop. If so, it was before I was provided this as a replacement by Dell for the previous laptop.
If I first open Word or Excel with a blank document or recent file, it opens fine. Then if I double click a Word or Excel file from Windows Explorer while Word/Excel 2013 is still open, the document opens without a problem.
How do I go about correcting the default settings so that when I double click a Word or Excel document it uses my Office Pro 2013 applications to open the file? Thanks for your help!Hi,
Probably Office Small Business 2007 is pre-installed on this computer, and somehow Outlook Professional 2013 lost it's file association.
Please have a check in Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features and see if you can find Office Small Business 2007 instance in the list.
To correct this, I would suggest you run
Microsoft Fix It tool to remove any previous version of Office from this computer, repair Office 2013 from control panel to re-create the file association, then verify result.
Hope this helps.

Hello once again, today we had a strange issue. It appears that a plugin for Office Pro Plus 2013 or indeed Office itself initiated a restart of the Remote Desktop Server it was installed on. This is obviously not an ideal situation as it ends up terminating
sessions of all users that are connected to the server.
This is the text from the Event Log:
The process msiexec.exe has initiated the restart of computer XXXXXXXXX on behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found
Reason Code: 0x80030002
Shutdown Type: restart
Comment: The Windows Installer initiated a system restart to complete or continue the configuration of 'Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013'.
The Event ID is 1074 / Source is User32 /
Is there a way to prevent this happening in future.Hello Dave,
I started having the same issue on our Remote Desktop Server, Windows 2008 R2 with Office Pro Plus 2013 connecting to O365 mailboxes. The server has been set up for months and only started this behaviour. When I trawled through the logs and found
the entry you list I also checked the application log at the same time. In the Application log I found an entry with source MsiInstaller and event id 11728 detailing that an install was in progress. I could see on the Geenral TAB of this entry
that a single user had initiated this install. It should be noted that the user was not an Administrator, however they were new. When I logged on as the user and opened outlook it did come up with a window saying it was completing the install and
asked them to reboot. It does this every time you open outlook unless you open it in safemode.
I tried a number of things to fix it:
1. Disable add-ins. (No effect)
2. Reset outlook profile. (No Effect)
3. Deleted user profile from the Remote Desktop Server, renamed the relevant profile in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList" and renamed the folder in "c:\users". (No effect)
My next step was going to be to delete the users profile completely. Before I did that I created a new test user and logged on to see if it was affecting all new users. I logged on with the user and it did not have a problem.
Strangely now when I log on as the original user having the issue the problem is gone.
I will monitor the situation, but at the moment it is fixed.

I am going to buy either a Mac Air or Mac Pro Retina 8GB RAM and 256GB. And as I have to still run Windows programs I will install Parallels 9. As the Mac are both 64bit machines does that mean I need to install Windows 7 64bit or just install 32 bit? (Going with Win7 as I hate Win8). And I will install Office Pro 2013 64 bit too or 32 bit or is that automatically selected by the underlying OS (I use Word, Excel and Access mainly for a membership database of a local club) ? I am not a power user so would appreciate advice on way to go
Again thank you. If I only use word, excel and access in the Win environment and Mac OS for email and safari for internet do I need anti virus software . Ie my connection to the world is mac only and I use office pro only to ruin the club, newsletters, membership database etc. and of course anything I do there can drag/drop to the mac environ to email. That's my understanding anyway. Next will my existing .pst file copy directly into mac mail or do I have to runs translator as I recall reading something about that ages ago when I started thinking Mac

Unable to completely install Office Pro 2013 in Windows 8.1
I had Windows 8 on my computer and purchased Office Pro 2013 and tried to install it. It completed part way and then it kept asking me for a password. Then it displayed the Letters and numbers I was to retype and tried that 4 times with no avail. To make
a long story short I never was able to install Office completely. I have none of the programs such as Word, etc. What should I do?Hi
What did you mean by asking for password? Were you saying the product key code?
Multiple versions of Office installed in one computer can cause unexpected problems, we recommend you completely remove your old suites in your machine:

Office Pro 2013 installing in wrong language
I started downloading Office Pro 2013 and the screens are in French. I did not continue the download, but I cannot figure out how to re-start it in English.
Hi,
How did you download Office Pro 2013?
If you are downloading Office from MY account page, you will have an option to choose
Language and install options to change the language and choose between the 32-bit and 64-bit version of Office:
https://office.microsoft.com/MyAccount.aspx
If you are downloading Office using Office Deployment Tool (ODT), you can specify Language ID="en-us" in the Click-To-Run Configuration.xml file. For example:
<Configuration>
<Add SourcePath="\\server\share" OfficeClientEdition="32">
<Product ID="O365ProPlusRetail" >
<Language ID="en-us" />
</Product>
</Add>
</Configuration>

Microsoft Office Pro plus 2013 installation wizard pops up everytime I open a Word document or a new page. I realize that other people have the same problem. However no answer has been found to stop this problem. I wonder if there is a
way. Hope someone is able to tell me and the others.Hi,
By the installation wizard, do you mean the First Run screen? If yes, please follow the steps below to disable it:
STEP ONE: If you have not already, download the Office 2013 Administrative Template files. These can be downloaded from
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35554
STEP TWO: Copy the ADMX files to %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions and the ADML files to the language specific folder (such as en-us) under %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions.
STEP THREE: Using the Group Policy Management Editor go to User Configuration | Administrative Templates | Microsoft Office 2013 | First Run |
STEP FOUR: Set the Disable First Run Movie to Enabled and the Disable Office First Run on application boot to Enabled
Please check the result then.

We are getting ready to move from Office 2010 MSI to Office 365 (2013) click to run ProPlus. Everything is ready to uninstall and install the new product.
My question is if the Updates Enabled="TRUE" is not in the configuration.xml file will machines with the click to run office 365 pull updates from the cloud? I had been told that the Enabled=TRUE is not needed in the configuration file as
it is a default setting. We want our machines to pull down updates from the cloud in place of providing a manual update location on our network.
Our configuration.xml file looks like this:

BritI am trying more to control the process via GPO with a start-up script and have created a batch file which executes the below command. It works and installs which ever version you define in your .xml file, the only issue i am facing is that re-runs the setup
at each reboot which isn't ideal. I am currently working on below script which could check the version of the office upon boot-up and only run if the specific version is not available. I have pasted the script right at the bottom of the page and if anyone
could shed some light in making it to read the version value
"\\server\c2r\Office365 update\setup.exe" /configure "\\server\c2r\Office365 update\Customconfign.xml" (this is the batch-file used as a startup script)

Office pro 2013 download: setup.exe "module could not be found"
Have downloaded Microsoft Office Professional 2013 4 times. Takes about 7 minutes. Then when I click on setup.exe, the computer (windows 8.1) asks if I want to let Microsoft make changes to my computer (this is normal for a software download). I say yes
and I get a popup that says "the specified module could not be found". You have other threads with this same notation but none seem to be with a software download so I am starting a new thread.
This was downloaded from Microsoft Volume Licensing. There was a note that I would need to download the Microsoft webapps something or other and I tried downloading that as well, but the download name was the same as the other download, and the
outcome and resulting error message also were the same.
Concerned because no where was I asked for any license key or setup key or anything else.
Any advice would be greatl welcomed.
Thank you

A similar issue is addressed here, you can follow SpeakPeace’s reply to check if helpful.

When you download Office 2013 from the Volume License Service Center, it comes down as .ISO files.
.ISO is not a file format that Windows can open natively.
There are several possible options you can use to install the software:
Use .ISO image file software to download and save the .ISO image file to a CD-R or a DVD-R.
Virtually mount and access ISO files as a virtual device.
Extract the .ISO files to your hard drive.
