My OS is Windows 8.1 Update 1. My PowerPoint is 2013 with SP1. My Visio is 2013 with SP1.

I have a PowerPoint file. It contains a Visio object. The Visio object contains some drawings and some Equation Editor 3.0 objects. The Equation Editor 3.0 objects are very clear in the original PowerPoint file. But if I open the PowerPoint file, right-click the Visio object and edit it by Visio 2013, go back to PowerPoint, then the Equation Editor 3.0 objects will become blurred! Please see this video for the demonstration:http://1drv.ms/1r2GanG

I downgraded only Visio from 2013 with SP1 to 2010. The problem was solved. So, the blurring problem could be a Visio 2013 bug. If it is, please fix this bug, Microsoft. Thanks.

The test PowerPoint files can be download here:

Hi Everyone,

I am having a challenge with sub-bulleting within a Word 2013 document. I suspect that the root of my problem is the fact that I am working within a table. Please have a look at the diagram below -

Instead of having an arrow (>) at the bottom of the diagram I instead want to have a bullet (*) which is indented to the same extent as the circled bullet.

In order to try and achieve this I have used the following techniques -

1). ALT + SHIFT + ARROW; however only the right arrow will work, which indents the arrow (>) further and changes it's appearance.

2). Delete key until I am back at full left justification and then clicking the bullet button again, however this only produces another arrow (>) as shown above!

3). Checked my 'Autocorrect options', and they are as shown below.

If anybody can offer any advice on how to better manage my bullet points it will be greatly appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Davo

Hi All,

I am frequent user of windows search on top right hand side for searching a file under the folder just follow the steps for reproduce the defect.

1) Open an windows explorer.

2) Navigate to a folder where files are stored.

3) In the search text box search for the file which does not exist, no files are returned.

4) Download the file to that folder using IE or any other browser.

5) In the window form highlight the search window & hit enter key again does not list when the file exist after download.

6) In the window clear the search text filed, type in the file which was searched now the files is listed

So I have the update that allows me to change the font and color of the message preview line, but for some reason i cannot change the preview line to plain black text.

It allows me to change it to every color in the rainbow and any font imaginable, but plain black font will not apply. I select it, hit ok, and nothing changes. This is across every machine i have in my office.

Can someone verify this is just a glitch in Outlook 2013?

Hello.

I have built a server to host Office Web Apps (2013) for my users to present PowerPoint files through Skype for Business (2015).  All works well but I have noticed that the first use of the day takes a few minutes to get going, then it is fine for the rest of the day. Does it require a warmup script of some sort like SharePoint? Do the IIS worker processes recycle like SharePoint?  If so, can I just add a URL (not sure what URL yet) to my existing SharePoint warmup script?

Thanks in advance,
D

Would like to know if there is language pack or update that would allow Word to translate an English document into Spanish-Mexico?

Currently the only option it gives is Spanish-Spain.

Thanks

We tried the following to resolve this issue:
- Repairing Office 2013;
- Disabling all Add ins;
- Updating Office to the most recent version.

Non of above did help. Does anyone know what we could try to resolve this?

I've already been through the other TechNet articles on the topic and while helpful neither resolves the issue:

I have a live connection to our Exchange (O365 hosted in the cloud). When I view a folder (not in a shared mailbox) that has items older than the local cache stores I just get a message at the bottom that there are more messages on the server. The "Click here to view more on Microsoft Exchange" hyperlink never appears.

I can Search and find those items and if I go into the Folder tab and click View on Server it will display them.

Is the "Click here to view more on Microsoft Exchange" functionality gone for Outlook 2016? I am running 16.0.6568.2025 (Office 365 C2R flavor.) I am experiencing this with multiple users.

Thank you.

Hi,

I downloaded the Office 2013 Professional Plus x64 Preview and I am trying to install it on Windows 7 x64. I searched everywhere and tried every given solution but the installation always fails when there is around 80 % of the progress bar filled and it states something like "office has encountered an error during installation". When I close the window the following error message appears:

Here are some of the things I tried that did not solve the problem:

- The task scheduler is running and working and there are no tasks that give any error

- I deleted the "Microsoft Help" folder

- I deleted the file "Rgstrtn.lck"

- In the registry I deleted "AppCompatFlags"

- In the registry "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" is set to "0"

- I deleted everything inside the "TEMP" folder

- I deleted every old versions of Office and their remaining files

- I used the FixIt files to scrub any old Office installations

- I am logged in as Administrator, have UAC turned off and gave my account ownership and full access to every file and folder

- I tried installing on a "clean reboot", tried installing in secured mode, started the setup.exe with administrator rights

- I tried unregistering and registering "msiexec"

- I tried extracting the files from the .img file and I am running from C:\ and installing to the standard folder

Is there anything I can do to get it to finally work?

We have PowerPoint file that have charts that were copied from Excel spreadsheets that are on a network share, and the PowerPoint file opens fine, but when you do File\Save or Save As..., it changes the PowerPoint tile to (Read Only) and no matter where you try to save (even C drive user's documents or desktop) is says make sure you have write access.

I know for a fact it is caused by certain charts in the PowerPoint because we can delete the charts and the file will save.  My guess is that somehow in the backend the linked spreadsheets are opening as read only, and then PowerPoint somehow thinks the PowerPoint file is read only, or is trying to save the linked spreadsheet too.  We made sure the spreadsheet that it was copied from is not currently opened by anyone, but it is possible the fileserver is returning a false positive as the file being opened already and so PowerPoint opens the linked spreadsheet in read only more, but I do not know a way to verify this.

My only workaround is to force users to delete charts and re-paste as an image, but they would prefer to be able to paste with (keep source formatting) but somehow not be linked back, so they can change chart properties.

This has been an issue for Office 2007, 2010, and 2013, so wondering if Office 2016 fixed the issue.

Hello everyone.

My Outlook 2013 shows incorrect number of unread emails.
How can this be solved?

Hi all.  I dragged an icon--Microsoft Office 2013--from its normal place in Start-->All apps-->Microsoft Office 2013 to my desktop.  Now I can't open Outlook 2013 at all.  Is there any way to resolve this other than reinstalling Office

The first time I tried to open the new desktop shortcut, it resulted in a pop-up window:

    Error

    OLMAPI32.dll

with only an "OK" button.  Clicking OK results in a brief pop up saying, "Outlook 2013 could not start.  Looking for solutions." or something to that effect.  That disappeared after a few seconds.  Then I was asked if I wanted to run the Office 2013 repair tool (or something with a similar name).  I clicked yes and it ran for ~5 minutes, but failed ("Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 configuration did not complete successfully.").

Currently, when I try to open the desktop shortcut, I get a window saying "Outlook couldn't start last time," and asks if I want to start in safe mode.  Selecting yes or no gives the same error window.

* There is no OUTLOOK.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15, where it usually resides.

* When I search for Outlook in Windows, the only result is the desktop shortcut.

* A shortcut for Outlook *does* exist in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Microsoft Office 2013, but when I open Start-->All apps-->Microsoft Office 2013, there is no Outlook icon.

* I manually ran the Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 setup, and selected the 'Repair' option.  I was met with the same error message, "Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013 configuration did not complete successfully."

* I have tried rebooting.

* This is the first time I have tried to open Outlook on this computer.

Thanks in advance.

Hi there

I am trying to setup shared workbooks in onenote for my company.

We all have Microsoft Office Plus 2013 in our machines but we have Office 365 in the network using sharepoint as a team repository.

Due to the large deployment of OneNote I am about start as tool for collaboration Globally I need to understand what interoperability issues I will face if I start this deployment as stated above.

The plan is to create the workbook on office365 on the SharePoint site and ask each member of the team to log in and click on Open In Onenote. I would assume that all the notes will then taken on the PC (Using office 2013) and uploaded into onenote on O365 without any issue.

Is this the case? Many Thanks

Francesco

Dear all

I am using Outlook 2013 32-Bit (Office Home and Business 2013) with Windows 8.1. professional on a 64-Bit PC.

Since several month searching email-attachments is not finding search terms  in pdf e-mail attachments. 

Windows search finds search terms well in pdf-documents that are stored on the pc.

Search terms are correctly found in doc, docx- and txt e-mail-attachments.

I have several times checked and repaired the pst file with Scanpst.exe, with the problem still persisting.

I have several times rebuilt the index completely, with the problem still existing.

Indexing options show PDF Professional Filter correctly installed.

The pst file ist quite big, 1'800'000 kb. Might that be the problem; is it too big?

When for the pst-file I check under Properties/General Tab/Advanced "Allow this file to have contents indexed in addition to File" and control this setting some hours later, this option is always unchecked. It seems that the system systematically uncheckes this option after a while. Might that be the problem and if so, why is the systemsystematically unchecking the option?

Registry editor shows at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, .pdf, PersistentHandler, the following (Standard) key  {5CF7CBA7-001D-4FFE-88A5-F8BBA5A6665D}. Google gives no result for this key.

Is this a wrong key and if so might this cause the problem and with which key should it be replaced?. I use Acrobat Reader DC.

Might the problem be due to the fact that my Outlook is 32 bit, but the PC 64 bit?

Windows, Reader DC and all other software are completely updated. Im using Avira professional Security as standard virus protection and from time to time also run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Protection, adwcleaner, spybot and Microsoft safety scanner.

It is in my professional live as a medical doctor very important to be able to search e-mail attachments efficiently. So I have spent many hours to find out why the problem persists, unfortunately without success.  I am thankful to anyone for helping.

Very kind regards. 

Peter

Hello,

I  have to get User Activity in SharePoint and OneDrive for Business. One way to get these information in reports through admin center -- https://blogs.office.com/2015/07/08/announcing-new-activity-logging-and-reporting-capabilities-for-office-365/ .

By admin credentials we can search reports and export it to local machine. But, I want to know, is there any other way to fetch these reports(using rest api or any other library)? Does Microsoft provide any other way to fetch  the user Activity from the Audit logs?

If someone can please help me to resolve these questions, it will be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks!

Hi, I have Pro Plus 2013. I only installed basic components, Word/Outlook/Excel.

My windows updates regularly shows updates for Lync, Project, Access, Skype for Business, InfoPath, OneDrive for Business which are NOT installed.

Is this a bug ? How on earth do I stop seeing updates for these products ? They are part of Pro Plus but I never installed them and its SUPER frustrating! I wish I could downgrade to an office Standard key just to fix this problem.

I use an Excel spreadsheet to store individual training records. I produce certificates by undertaking a mail merge in Microsoft Publisher 2013 by using the source data in excel ie Delegate name, Course title, Date, Certificate number.

I then do a merge and print individual PDF certificates. I can do this by going to print and selecting "Microsoft Print to PDF" as the output rather than a printer. It then asks me for a file name for each individual certificate. With large merges this can take a long time inputting each individual filename.

Is there anyway i can grab part of the merge data ie certificate number or delegate name and pass this to the dialogue box that opens for file name. so each individual output file is relevant to the data on the certificate? ie 123456.pdf or fred bloggs.pdf?

Any help gratefully appreciated
