VS 2013 Community Edition lost its license: SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.
I have installed Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition on a brand new Windows 7 machine and registered with a new Microsoft account. This was for testing purpose to see how well the new Community Edition would work in comparison to the Professional Edition.
At first, everything looked good.
Didn't use it in a while now, and just came back to see that it's complaining about a license. What a warm welcome. It gave me a link to "renew" the license and I clicked it. It opened that pre-login window, then came back and said this:
SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.
That's all. Every single time I retry. What does it even mean? I don't want my browser (IE11 by the way) to do anything, I just want that license to use my free Visual Studio edition. Is it not free after all, was it just a trial that has now expired? I
mean, why should I get a 1500$ application for free... That just doesn't sound real.
Anyway, can somebody tell me what went wrong and whether/how it can be fixed?
Okay, something's badly broken here in my region. I took an older VM with Windows 8.1 and an installed VS 2013 (from MSDN, with licence), uninstalled VS 2013, installed all Windows updates, and then installed the VS 2015 CTP 5. It has installed fine, but
at the first start, it says:
Sorry, we ran into a problem.
SP324098: Your browser could not complete the operation.
At least I can ignore the problem and continue in this case. After starting, under "Register product", it first said "licence expires in 14 days" and I was logged in with my primary account. Must have been from the previous installation.
The error code appeared here as well. After logging out and registering again, it seems to work. And my default browser here is Chrome and I never took special care about IE. In VS 2013 CE, however, I don't even get the login form.
So this is an entirely different machine, it has never seen a community edition of Visual Studio nor the separate account I used for it. Yet it failed with the very same error message. What the heck does that error code even mean and what is the real cause
of it?? Can you please tell me the truth about it? I don't want to chase symptoms or try every guess somebody might have (retry, restart, reinstall) – that leads us nowhere. This error appears for a reason, I hope, and somebody must be able to find that out.
(If not, I'm really wondering what Microsoft engineers do and whether they know their product.)
If this doesn't improve, I honestly and urgently suggest you drop this broken licensing implementation and replace it by what there was before (i.e. product key or nothing at all) or use another proven technology. This thing just isn't stable or reliable
and will cause trouble.

SP324099: Could not complete the operation - Can not login to update VS2013 community license
I need to update my vs2013 community license.
I go to help / register product and then I fill out the form with my windows life info and get this message:
SP324099: Could not complete the operation
IE also opens up to a url that has this:

I've also tried the ipconfig /flushdns command and I can't find the VSWinExpress.exe /resetuserdata command.
Can anyone tell me what else to do??
Thanks.Hi zoropell,
>>I need to update my vs2013 community license.
Didn't you register VS2013 Community before?
As far as I know, we can use VS2013 Community without sign in for several days. Can you use it now? Was it expired? If you can still use it, please check if VS works fine except for registering it. If you find that you can't create projects
or you can't build the projects fine, I'm afraid that you need to repair VS because I guess VS wasn't installed ok.
Your update is welcome.

VS 2013 Prof. edition always shows "Could not complete the action"
Hi all,
When I open any .ascx file VS2013 always shows alert, and when I close, it shows it again.
Could you help please?
Thanks.Hi Galym,
>>VS 2013 Prof. edition always shows "Could not complete the action"
According to your description, could you please tell if you get this issue when you open any .ascx files in a specific app or all web apps have the same issue?
So if possible, I suggest you can create a simple web project in VS2012 Prof and add a .ascx files under the web project and open it again check if you get same issue.
(1) If you get same issue in a sample web project, I suggest you can try the following suggestion to check this issue.
Step1: I suggest you can try to open these .ascx files in VS safe mode check if you install some Add-ins or extension tools in your VS2013 IDE.
Reference:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms241278.aspx
Step2: I suggest you can try to reset your VS setting file by going to Tools->Import and Export Settings check this issue again.
Step3: If the above suggestions still could not work, maybe you will need to repair or re-install the VS2013 Prof check this issue again.
(2) If you just get this error in a specific app, I suggest you delete these .ascx files and then add new .ascx files for the specific app. Or you can directly to ask this issue to the web forum:
http://forums.asp.net where asp.net experts live in.
If you have any update messages about your issue, please free for me.

When I try to paste an CCI file into a PSD, I get this message… Could not complete the Paste command because the ICC profile is invalid.
I need the layer to be an editable smart object! What's the solution?
RonI received the file from my client. However, last week I had no trouble pasting the same file into a PSD file, as a smart object.
The color file is a label mechanical, which I place into a PSD file of the product. These are used for print ads and web graphics. The color is very critical and has worked really well for the last 4 years.
I have used the default color settings in Creative Suite and its been working fine. They are in synch and, I have no idea how to re-assign the color profile. I’m a graphic Designer, color correction is not something I would do normally.

Hi,
I have few sharepoint 2013 site's, which I am trying to open in sharepoint designer 2013.
After adding the site name in open site and clicking ok, the sharepoint designer crashes. At times the sites open, but 90% of the time, the sharepoint 2013 designer has crashed. I get the message "The server could not complete the request. For
more specific information, click on the Details button".
When clicking on "Details" button, there is a empty box. The error message never gets closed and have to kill the process.
I have tried doing "IISreset" multiple times, which has not helped.
Has anybody faced this issue? How to fix this?
ThanksHi Venkatzeus,
Firstly, I need to verify the followings:
1.Whether this issue occurred on a specify SharePoint 2013 site.
2.Whether you have extended the problematic site.
Make sure that your user is a site administrator. If you have extended the problematic site, please add it to AAM.
There are other probable causes for this issue:
1.Anonymous authentication is not configured for the problematic web application in IIS
Fix: Enable Anonymous authentication in IIS
2.Server is running out of memory
Fix: Free up memory on the server

VS 2013 Community Edition who can use it?
Hello,
I'm working in non-software company but we want to develop some applications exclusively for our needs not to sell to others. There is about 20 PCs and company's annual revenue is more than $1MM.
We want to develop software only for our needs and software will be used only insde our organization, software is not open source and will be not published anywhere else except in our company. Can we use Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition
in this case?If you are an enterprise organization, you cannot use the Community Edition. The fact that your company does not develop and publish software is not alter the revenue limit.
My opinion based on:
"Who can use Visual Studio Community?
A: Here’s how individual developers can use Visual Studio Community:
Any individual developer can use Visual Studio Community to create their own free or paid apps.
Here’s how Visual Studio Community can be used in organizations:
An unlimited number of users within an organization can use Visual Studio Community for the following scenarios: in a classroom learning environment, for academic research, or for contributing to open source projects.
For all other usage scenarios: In non-enterprise organizations, up to 5 users can use Visual Studio Community.
In enterprise organizations (meaning those with >250 PCs
or > $1MM in annual revenue), no use is permitted beyond the open source, academic research, and classroom learning environment scenarios described above."
If this explanation is still not clear, because your issue is about Visual Studio Community Edition 2013 license, I suggest that
you can call 1-800-426-9400, Monday through Friday, 6:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. (Pacific Time) to speak directly to a Microsoft licensing specialist. -
Visual Studio 2013 community edition
Can I install Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition on the same development machine that has Visual studio 2010 professional and Visual Studio 2005 Professional also installed?
Will SAP's Crystal Reports work with Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition?
Bill VoorheesYes. the three different versions (2005 vs. 2010 vs. 2013) are independent entities designed to install and coexist on a single system.
As for CR, you'll need to ask SAP about that.

Error: Outlook could not create the work file. Office 2013
I was having issues with Windows 8.1 store apps not working and it was suggested to sync my account licenses. I did that but it did not correct my problem. I then ran the troubleshooter app. The troubleshooter found several issues that it
fixed but I cannot remember what they were.
So here's my problem. Now, when I open Outlook (2013) I get the error "Outlook could not create the work file."
Any suggestions?Glad to hear that you have found a solution and thank you for sharing it here, it will be helpful to other community members who have same questions.

I have an older version of Adobe Digital Editions (around 3 years old) and was very happy with it.
Then I had problems with my Kobo Reader and asked a friend who works in IT to assist. She could not fix the Kobo but she messed up my Addobe. She downloaded version three and I have an account and a password - was not able to transfer my books from my reader to version three (and I don't like the lay-out - I would prefer to stay with the old version as I also loose all my download date info..)
But all the books I have bought over the last three years are in the old Adobe Digital and I cannot access them any more. When I use it I get the message "that the document is licensed to a different account. I can't even open the books on my computer.
When I go to my Kobo library, I cannot also not open my books and get the message "this doc is protected by adobe digital rights management and is not currently authorized for use with your adobe. please sign in with your authorized adobe id and try again"
I believe the problem is that I do not seem to have a digital id for my old adobe or that the Kobo is not in sync with it anymore.
can you please help me - going on vacation in three days and cannot go without books.Please authorize ADE 3 with same credentials that you used with older version of ADE

I get the following error after the installation and configuration window of MS Project: "There is not enough memory to complete the operation. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows you aren't using, and then try again."
It happens both with MS Project 2010 and 2013 on a Windows 7 desktop.
I tried installing / uninstalling Office 2010, MS Project, tried installing 32 and then 64 bit versions, clean up, disk error checker, startup changes (msconfig), anti virus, running as Windows 7 and then Windows XP compatible mode.
Nothing helps. I see this issue reported as early as 2007 version of MS projects on Microsoft forums, but I do not see any solution anywhere. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue without having to reformat hard drive? Every other application, including
all other Office programs work seamlessly.
I also tried Microsoft support, after an hour and a half of basically doing what I did before, I was told I have to pay 99$ for "premium" support, so someone can look at this bug.
I have 16 Gb RAM and more than 200Gb or hard drive free, so actual memory is not the problem.This issue was originally reported with MS Project 2007 and keeps popping up since.
A quick Google search provides more than 200K pages of results of this issue:
https://www.google.ca/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=There+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+To+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren't+using%2C+and+then+try+again.
And 193K results on Bing:
http://www.bing.com/search?q=There+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+To+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren%27t+using%2C+and+then+try+again.&go=Submit&qs=n&form=QBLH&pq=there+is+not+enough+memory+to+complete+the+operation.+to+free+up+available+memory%2C+close+programs%2C+projects%2C+or+windows+you+aren%27t+using%2C+and+then+try+again.&sc=0-0&sp=-1&sk=&cvid=4cb023c1fbd94ec2bba9821b095f21f2
Computer was defragged already. I run more tests, and specifically when MS Projects tries to run, it tries to take all memory, more than 300Gb, on the computer. (DropBox was running at the same time, and warned that there were no space. As soon as MS Project
stopped attempting to configure itself, everything came back to normal and the available space became available again.)
Looking through older forum posts, looks like this application tries to take "unlimited" amount of memory. Some registry fixes are mentioned potentially, but I was not able to apply them.
Since everything else works, this is a MS Project bug reported by multiple users on various versions of Windows, including Vista and 7, so please provide a fix and not 'not a know bug' lie. All the premium support will say, is to format the hard drive, unless
they have a patch or a registry edit solution. If the latter is true, since the issue exists for multiple years, it should have been already been provided to users.
Also, I am not running a SQL server, or any server, this is an installation on a local machine. -
Today I installed Adobe Director 11.5. I received a couple of errors in the FLEXnet Licensing Service. It looks It could not start. I tried to download the Licence fix what I found on Google but that doesn't work, so I checked the 'Service' at service (windows).
It's status is empty. When I double click on the FLEXnet Licensing Service, clicked on start at the opened window and an error is coming:
Windows could not start the FLEXnet Licensing Service service on Local Computer
Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start.
I don't understand what it says with this message, only that it is impossible to start. However, that is not what I am trying of course, I want to start the FLEXnet Licensing Service, service.
Re-installing of the software, doesn't make any change. How can I start it so Director is also working?Hi Don1233,
Please consider seek help at the software vendor side.
For the services didn't start, follow the suggestions posted by Elton in the thread below:
