VM with Office

Hi,
This should be very simple but I can't find it.
How do I create a virtual machine with Office 2013 in Azure?
I need it for test reasons an I do have a MSDN with the office licenses.
But I can't find it anywhere in the wizards inside Azure.
/Torben

Hi,
Yes, there is no wizard for that in Azure VMs.
You can create an Azure VM which meets the requirement for Office 2013:
System requirements for Office 2013 and Office 365 ProPlus
Virtual Machine and Cloud Service Sizes for Azure
According to the requirements for Office 2013 and Sizes in Azure VMs, you can select a Windows 2008 R2/Windows 2012 image from the gallery and select the A2 or a larger size for the VM. If you have a MSDN subscription in Azure, you can also choose Windows
7/8.1 image.
After you create the VM and RDP into the VM, you can install Office 2013 and activate it.

Susie

Sorry, something went wrong - Open Office File from Search Results Page with Office Web Apps

Hi,
I'm getting "Sorry, something went wrong" error when I'm trying to open any office document from inside Search Results Page with Office Web Apps, the same error is appearing in the document preview as well.
The error in SharePoint logs says that the file cannot be found.
Please note that this error is coming only when the "Filename" of the document is not written in English (in my case its written with Arabic characters).
If I try to open it from the document library, its opening properly with no errors.
The only difference between two URLs (document URL in Search Results and in Document Library) is the value for "sourcedoc" attribute;
In the case of Search Results page, the filename in "sourcedoc" attribute is kept as is with Arabic characters.
While in the Document Library, the filename in "sourcedoc" attribute is converted into different characters (something like: "B9%D9%85%D9%8").
Anybody have an idea on how to overcome this issue, implement a workaround or modify the "sourcedoc" behavior?
Thanks in Advance.

Dear Wendy,
Thanks for your efforts, I already tried your last suggestion before, but this didn't solve my problem.
Actually my end users are accessing this portal using ADFS and HTTPS.
Finally I got this solved, I have done below to get my overall solution working perfectly:
- First I have configured Windows Authentication and ADFS Authentication on the same zone which is the default zone.
- The issue when opening office documents with Arabic file name has disappeared as a result of first change.
- Then I have faced an issue where we are not able to crawl content under Default zone, however we have to do so, after too many efforts, I found that its related to the Load-balancer/proxy, I have made the crawler server
to crawl himself (http://CrawlServerName:PortNumber).
- Also a change on Alternate Access Mapping was needed, I have set one of the extended zones (which is running Windows Authentication only) as Internal URL for the Default Zone, and this is was the URL I used for Crawling.
I have configured Server Name Mappings to make sure we got proper URLs in Search Results.
- Then we faced another issue, which is Authentication selection on login page (How to bypass this page, and authenticate using ADFS auto), I used this solution (Set Custom Sign In Page):
http://0ut0ftheb0x.wordpress.com/2014/01/04/skip-the-authentication-selection-page-at-_logindefault-aspx-in-a-mixed-authentication-environment/.
- I faced one more issue as a result of above workaround; Sign Out functionality wasn't working well; users get logged in automatically whenever I click on Sign Out. I solved this by modifying the "Sign Out" Control under _layouts;
I made it to redirect users to ADFS Sign Out Page instead of SharePoint Sign Out Page (I know its not recommended, but I don't have any other option).

One Drive for Business with Office 2010

I have some users with Office Pro 2010 that need to sync SharePoint 2013 libraries. When clicking the Sync button, the SharePoint Workspace 2010 jumps. I tried installing the OneDrive for business and it receives that it's all set but nothing happpens.
How to make this work?
Thanks a lot in advance

Did you configure OD4B client to sync with the specific Libraries? It won't work automatically. You cannot use SharePoint Workspace with SharePoint 2013.

OneDrive for Business sync client with Office 2007

We have 700 people organisation using Sharepoint 2013. One of the key features for us is the OneDrive for business that allows us to sync document libraries. BUT there seems to be a big problem with Office 2007 clients, after installing the separate client
opening and creating documents get's broken. Same thing is described here:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/odsupport/archive/2014/02/06/you-cannot-open-or-create-office-documents-in-sharepoint-2013-with-office-2010-and-office-2013-products-installed.aspx
Office customization tool cannot be used with standalone client and there is no way to disable Microsoft Sharepoint Foundation support. Technet states that Office 2007 is supported but it surely doesn't feel like it. SP2 fixes this for Office 2010, but that
doesn't help with Office 2007. Is there any solution for this?
Regards,
Sampsa

Hi,
It’s a known issue with Office 2007 or 2010 (without the latest Service Pack) along with SharePoint 2013.
To resolve the issue, you can install Service Pack 2 for Office
2010 and Service Pack 3 for Office 2007.
Or disable the IE Add On - "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" .
Thanks,

Report generation toolkit problem with office 2000 and office XP

Hello, I am having a problem with running my vi after it is compiled with application builder. The dev machine is an XP box and the targer is windows 2000. I included _Excel Dynamic VIs.vi and _Word Dynamic VIs.vi from the office 2000 section of the install cd (for the report toolkit) in the compile but did not include those files for XP. When I run the application on the target machine (2000), the reporting functions call Excel just fine and the program does not come up with any errors. The program however, is not loading the approprate template and inserting the approprate data. Did I leave some neccessary files out of the compile? Thanks in advance!

Hi Acer,
The recommended procedure in your case is to install Microsoft Office 2000 on the development machine and then reinstall the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. When the toolkit is installed, it will check for the current version of Office and install the corresponding VIs to support it. The VIs include different ActiveX calls according to the version of Office. Therefore it is not enough to change the support manually without having the correct version of Office installed first.
However, I would recommend that you just try to run your executable on a machine that has Office 2000 installed. The difference in the ActiveX API for Office XP and 2000 is not that significant, so your application might work perfectly on an Office 2000 machine. If you try to run the executable on a machine with Office 97 installed I'm willing to bet my right arm that you will experience errors.
Good luck Acer!

MSO.DLL not installed with "office home and small business 2013"

Hello,
In my 32 bits application, I use the IInPlacePrintPreview interface on a "word.document" OLE object to show a preview of a word document.
That's work fine with Office 2013 Standard Edition (32 bits) on a Windows 7 x64 Edition, but my application crash with "office home and small business 2013" (32 bits).
I have noticed that the call to query the IInPlacePrintPreview interface on the OLE object load the mso.dll of Office into memory.
The mso.dll is installed with the Office 2013 Standard Edition, but not with the "office home and small business 2013" Edition.
I guess the problem is the lack of
mso.dll.
Do you know why the mso.dll is necessary for the preview of a word document ?
How do I install and configure mso.dll on a
"office home and small business 2013" edition ?
Thanks for your help.

Problem opening documents from SharePoint (2013) libraries with Office 2010 and 2013 components installed

Hi
I've been encountering the problem of Office files failing to open from SharePoint 2013 libraries with the prefix of 'ms-excel:ofv|u|' etc. in the url. Following the
helpful questions and answers in the forum, I've identified the likely cause as the fact that my main Office installation is 2010, but I also have installed OneDrive for Business 2013 (which I need in order to sync document libraries with my local drive).
The solution I've seen suggested elsewhere of deactivating the SharePoint integration of Office 2013 components fails for two reasons: there is no way (or at least, I can't find one) of deactivating SharePoint integration probably because, deactivating
SharePoint integration would likely stop the syncing of libraries/folders.
One thing that I have noticed in my case that I've not seen mentioned elsewhere is that if I right-click a document and select 'open in new tab/window' the required
document opens directly in the relevant office package. I don't know if this is a useful observation, but it seems to be new information.
My question is, is there a way I can continue to sync libraries and open Office documents directly in Office 2010? My thoughts are possible changes to registry settings
(which I can do, but don't know enough to find the correct ones myself) or (re)installation of software in some appropriate order to leave the correct settings.
I have 'repaired' my Office 2010 installation without any observed affect on behavior.
Thanks
Ray
(I've just seen a suggestion that Office 2010 SP2 may fix this issue. I've requested to test this, but whilst this may fix my problem, rolling it out to
other users may be more problematic. In the meantime, other suggestions of solutions are welcome)

Hi,
According to your description, it is a good way to do a test about office 2010 SP2, here is an article about this issue- limitations of using the OneDrive for Business sync app with Office 2010 applications , it may help you.

Hi,
We can disable OneDrive in Office with Group Policy.
First, please download Office 2013 Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) from this link below:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35554
Then, press Win + R, type "gpedit.msc" in the blank box, press Enter.
The settings can be found under User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Microsoft Office 2013 -> Miscellaneous. Select the “Block signing into Office” option in the list of settings. In the Properties window, click “Enable” and select
the option “None Allowed.” Save the settings and open Word to check, there should be no OneDrive option for the user.

Windows Search Service Best Pratices on RDP Server with office 2013

high everybody,
i´m looking for guide how to configure the Windows Search Service on our Server 2012 RDS Servers. The Servers have Office 2013 installed so turning off the Search Service is not an Option. We are using User Profile disks and logoff was getting slower
as time goes by. Reading in another thread if have deleted the Subkeys under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Search\CrawlScopeManager\Windows\SystemIndex\DefaultRules
and restarted the Search Service.
This Resulted in a lighning fast logoff ( less then 5 Seconds) before that logoff took up to 2 Minutes. Looking at the Reg Key´s i found that underneth the mentioned Key there was a subkey for each user that has EVER loged on to this Server. Normal load
should be about 30 Users and i found about 700 subkey´s. To it seems that this causes the Search Service searchindexer.exe to read thru all this key´s witch i think is not the Problem ( Internet Explorer does far more reads and writes) but what happens
with the Information.
Maybe it has to to with the fact, that we are using User Profile Disks ?
In the Search Service Policy i have excluded "C:","users homedrive" and the Share where the Users share theyr data, for the Search Service to exclude.
So does anybode have experience with Seach Service on RDS Servers with Office maybe with User Profile Disks ?
Thanks Reiner

Hi Reiner,
You can check the following article might helpful to resolve your case.
Incomplete search results may occur in Outlook when a PDF iFilter is installed
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2925203/en-us
Also try uninstalling office 2013 application and then reinstall by running change user /install command in elevated command prompt on RDS server prior to install software's. Post software installation you need to run
change user /execute command on server

HP Officejet 4500 Ethernet / Wifi Driver Problem (blank fields) with Office 2013

Hi,
I have an Officejet 4500 (Ethernet) and I have exactly the same problem as lots and lots of HP Printer owners!
Everytime I try to print on Office 2013 + Win 8 64-bit, the Printer window comes with strange "Asiatic" symbols, and not the original language (Portuguese or English, I tried both). (Note: my father has exactly the same printer I have and he already had some problems also on Win 7 + Office 2010, then I deleted all HP drivers, installed again and it solved the problem)
I already tried the menus you people talk about but in my model I do not have such options. I already installed everything again and again...and always the same problem! With another printer from another company I have no problems with the drivers on Office, so it must be from HP Drivers that do not get along with Office 2013!!! Please update them as soon as possible...

Hello DaveZiffer,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue since the installation of the Office program.
Here is a link that will take you to the 4 updates that are available for your printer.
After doing the updates, if you are still having issues, please feel free to write me back and I will be happy to research this issue further.
Thanks for your time.

Having issues with Myriad Pro Font with Office 2013 Products

Have tried to install Myriad Pro Fonts manually on a windows 8 & 8.1 machine with office 2013 64 bit but it seems that the office products like work, excel do not pick up the right font even though its comes up as Myriad Pro in the font list.
I have logged this Microsoft as well but still haven't had much luck. In Office 2010 it used to work fine as it a 32 bit product.
Print Preview Word 2013
You can see that when printed it brings the (C) from Page 2 to Page 1. Whereas in Word 2010 it is fine, it will print exactly what is shown above.
Any assistance will be much appreciated.
Thanks

Unfortunately, there isn't anything much Adobe can do about this. It has nothing to do with what is in the Myriad Pro font itself, but probably has to do with improperly handling of OpenType CFF fonts.
I myself have found a few bugs in Office 2013 in terms of OpenType CFF font handling, especially with regards to how Office 2013 saves PDF files (not when using the Acrobat “save as PDF” feature of Acrobat).
Since this relates to print, you should also be aware that Office products do tend to reformat based on metrics at printer device resolution as opposed to screen device resolution and that such reformating often occurs if you compose with one printer selected and then select a different printer to actually print to. This particular problem in Office goes all the way back to the first version of Word.

Bug? Mailto: in combination with Office 2013 Spell Checking.

Dear community,
For one of our sollutions we use the mailto protocol to send a hyperlink which users can use to automatically open a predefined new-email-window.
This works fine with Office Professional Plus 2010 [EN-US] (32bit) in combinatione with Microsoft Office Language Pack 2010 - Dutch/Nederlands (32bit).
However, Office Professional Plus 2013 [EN-US] (32bit), in combination with Microsoft Office Language Pack 2013 - Dutch/Nederlands (32bit), crashes whenever the spellingcheck is started.
The mailto-command we use to reproduce this problem is (enter command in Internet Explorer, open with Outlook):
mailto:[email protected]?subject=%20Actie%20vereist&body=%5b2103162%2f335159076094968874376260057075247208793%5d
During analyses we concluded:
- Office Configuration Analyzer Tool 1.2 (Full Scan) did not find any related issues.
- Spellchecker crashes while checking the text within the body.
- Uninstalling Microsoft Office Language Pack 2013 - Dutch/Nederlands solves the problem, but obviosly, we want to keep the Dutch spelling check functionality.
- Standard Englsh (U.S.) spellchecking functions without problems.
- This problem is reproducable on any computer running Office Professional Plus 2013 [EN-US] in combination with the Dutch (Nederlands) spelling check. Tried multiple hardware configurations (Intel based) and multiple OS's (Windows 7 Enterprise
(64bit), Windows 8.1 Enterprise (64bit), Windows 8.1 Pro (64bit). All with the same result.
Is there way to solve this issue, without loosing Outlook 2013 as client and Dutch Spelling Check capabilities?
Kind regards,
Leon Kandelaars.

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your reaction.
Q - Do you mean Outlook crashes when we click the Spelling & Grammar button under Review tab?
A - Yeah, if you try to edit the mail and have 'check spelling as you type' activated, it wil crash as well.
Q - If we copy the email body and paste it to a new email message, will this issue continue?
Does this   issue happen with other Office 2013 programs? Please try to use 'spell check' in word and check if the same issue occurs.
A - If you copy the generated body to a new email or Word 2013, the spelling check will in both cases crash the application.
Q - In addition, we can also have a look at the event log to see if we can find anything useful.
A - The crash generates an "Application" "Hang error". I've generated 2 (1 with Outlook, 1 with Word):

Reboot before sysprep when I want to add an installation task with Office 2013

Hi all,
I want to buid a reference computer with a genuine Win7 wim file, correct drivers, uptodate patches, and usefull applications. So I use a “Build and Capture Task Sequence”. The new reference image captured, I can use it with WDS or a media
to any computers, using a second and different “Build and Capture Task Sequence.”
All things were right, I could add Acrobat Reader, Java and some others application, but it failed when I tried to add “Add Application Task” with Office 2013. I could import the software, I discovered the new panel to configure config.xml
and mychoice.msp, but when I run the Tasq sequence, when it begin to sysprep the OS, a few time before the capture, the computer reboots. Sysprep does not run, and the image is not captured.
I can add any software installation in the Tasq sequence but not one with Office 2013.
What do you think about this issue?

Hi,
Some pieces of advice, since I have managed to create a Windows 7 WIM file with Office 2013 embedded without any problems:
Build your reference image in a virtual machine, not on physical hardware, to prevent a gigantic driverstore with drivers for one or more models, and having to rebuild your image every single time you use a new model. This is not how MDT works, MDT works
hardware agnostic, since it inject's drivers of hardware for each model before the WIM file is applied to your target computer.
Do you really want to embed applications like Adobe Reader and Java in the image? They have a release every month. Do you want to (or is there room for) updating your image every single month? Put them in the deployment phase of your task sequence. This
way these applications are left out the WIM file, but are installed after the WIM file is applied to your system. Yes this takes a little bit more time when deploying a machine, but that's time you'll save on not managing your WIM file every single month
Check your
log files, make sure your machine is not Domain Joined, since that is the biggest mistake people make when sysprepping a machine. And check
Setuperr.log for any sysprep errors. Guaranteed it has noting to do with Office 2013
Good luck!

[Resolved]Outlook 2013 with Office 365: Unable to log in to: SharePoint. Click here to log in.

This is posted so that it may be of assistance to others.
I am using Outlook 2013 (Office 2013 Pro Plus) with Office 365 (E3 Subscription). Active Directory is federated with Office 365. I recently had to change my AD account password.
On my home computer, that is not a domain member and is running Windows 8.1 with my personal Microsoft account, Outlook was not authenticating to SharePoint Online. In the message/event windows the error "Unable to log in to: SharePoint. Click
here to log in." is displayed. When I click the error it flashes and does nothing else. Outlook was showing SEND/RECEIVE errors for all of my SharePoint Online calendars and lists:
Task 'SharePoint' reported error (0x80070005): 'You do not have permission to view this SharePoint List (IT Shared Calendar). Contact the SharePoint site administrator. HTTP 403.'
I could send and receive e-mail. I deleted one of the calendars and then added it back from the SharePoint site ribbon- no change. I was always able to access the calendars and lists using IE.
I checked Windows Credential Manager. I deleted my Outlook credential (MS.Outlook.15) which prompted me to enter my Exchange Online credentials but did not prompt for SharePoint Online. I then deleted my Office credential (MicrosoftOffice15_Data:orgid) with
no change.
It was not until I switched Office over to use my organizational (Federated AD) account that the problem was resolved.
It appears Outlook (15.0.4615.1000) now gets confused between accounts- because previously I had no issues when changing my password as Outlook would always prompt for it. I noticed this behavior had changed on my office computer when Outlook did not give
me the usual three prompts for password after changing it.

Lync 2013 OCT deployment on machines with Office 2010. Installation Failure

Hi,
In our environment, we have Win7, Office 2010 x86. (no plans to upgrade all of Office to 2013 as yet)
I'm trying to deploy Lync 2013 x86, and have packaged an MSP using "setup /admin" for later deployment via SCCM.
Now I know there are no problems running Lync 2013 with Office 2010 as it works fine if you manually install.
Strange thing is, when I try running the setup with MSP for silent install, it runs silent and all looks well although all the Office Tools shortcuts are created and there are files under the Program Files folders for Office\15.0 as expected
but not Lync itself. ie: no lync.exe file or shortcuts.
Reviewing the setup log doesn't show any obvious errors that I can tell.
Also after this, if I go through the "Add/Remove Components" under Uninstall Programs\Lync 2013, and I can see in there that it DOES already show Lync as being installed, if I just click continue, it runs through the setup process and
then Lync will be installed
I've also tried this same process using the Full "Office Pro Plus 2013" and only select Lync to install and the same thing happens.
Has anyone else come across this issue or could point me in the right direction.
For the OCT (setup.exe /admin) the only settings I've changed from defaults are:
- Filled in the Organisation name
- Set KMS licensing, display level to none and suppress modal
- some regkeys for some default settings for GalDownloadInitialDelay, ShownFirstRunOptin
- Force on Lync (Run from My Computer)
I'm running "setup.exe /adminfile Lync_x86.MSP" in my case to test this MSP.

I had the same issue. As soon as I updated to the latest Admin admx/opal files, it worked great.
Cheers,

ADFS single sign-on with office 365 and multiple forests

I have 2 forests with one of them (Forest A) only running Exchange / Office 365 in hybrid mode. The other forest (Forest B) has my AD accounts for everyday user login and work. Is there a way to set up ADFS between these 2 forests in order for Forest B
to achieve single sign-on to office 365? Today users have to login with separate office 365 accounts in order to access email and sharepoint. Short of migrating Forest A into Forest B and getting down to one forest / domain, is there anything else we can do
to achieve single sign-on?

Hi,
Based on my research, we can have one ADFS farm servicing multiple forests, here are some related articles below for your references:
