Office 2013 Deployment in a Multisite Environment

$
0
0

We want to upgrade our 200+ clients to Office 2013 but I have encountered 2 major issues.

The first is that we have multiple sites with slow network links (less than 512k) so I need to be able to install and update from the local file server. All our file servers have an install share mapped to I: that replicates from a central location every day which is where the install files are located.

Problem is I seem to have to specify the server name for the configuration XML file to work. I have tried using the %LOGONSERVER% environment variable but this hasn't worked. I could create an xml file for each sit but I'd rather avoid it as sometimes we move computers around and I don't want them trying to update from another site and flooding the WAN link.

The second is that as we have slow links and large inboxes I need to find a way to move the email from the users 2010 inbox into their 2013 inbox. When I update to 2013 it downloads them all again. I can export from 2010 then import into 2013 but this just adds it as an additional inbox.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.


Group Policy not applied to Office 2013

Hi Guys

I have set group policy on a 2011 SBS server to force Excel 2013 to use .xls as the default file type when saving.

It shows up correctly on the client computer using RSOP, but the setting does not make it into office, where the default file save type remains as .XLSX

HELP!

You need a modern OS

I am having a horrible time getting Office 365 installed on my PC.  Keeps giving the general message, that I need a modern OS.  Well, I do.  I am running Windows 8 with Media Center.  I have tried all of the compatibility ideas. I have went through the reg file and cleared out any mention of office15.  I have clean booted and tried to install.  I have searched and searched the web.  I see lots of people with this issue, but no solutions.  I have also tried saving the file to the desktop and running it, as some have had success.  I have not.  Any help...

Office 365 ProPlus & Federated Access

I was wondering if ProPlus ongoing verification can be accomplished using Federation if Shibboleth is used as the Identity Provider?  I have setup the Shibboleth IdP to also use ECP?

Also after having installed Offfice365 Pro Plus is it possible while using an app like Word to sign-in using federated access under a similar setup?

Thank you for your time.

My son is getting shown how to prepare documents on Microsoft Publisher at school.  He has to do homework on this. He has Office for Mac but this won't open the publisher files.  Is there a Publisher for Mac? or can you open this file in some other way with Office?

Office 2013 templates Group Policies

There is a GPO related to Enterprise template locations in Office 2013 that is not clear at all and poorly documented. The path to the GPO is: 

MS Office 2013 > Shared Paths > Enterprise templates path

What is the purpose and how this path can be used? What is the difference between using this GPO and the following GPOs that I have been using in the past:

MS Office 2013 > Shared Paths > Workgroup templates path

MS Office 2013 > Shared Paths > User templates path

PowerPoint 2013/Word 2013 > Miscellaneous > Personal templates path for PPT or Word

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Office 2013 not retaining activation

$

So far I have imaged 26 machines that are using Office 2013.  I activated each machine's installation of Office 2013 with an MAK key and have confirmed I've been charged the 26 activations in the Volume Licensing Service Center.  However, all of these machines are now prompting for activation again as if I have been using a trial version.

I am going to have to activate each machine again, annoyingly so.  Is there anyway to keep these machines from losing thier activation?  Users have mandatory profiles, activation is done as an administrator.  The event log shows that it is looking for a KMS host, but I am using an MAK key and the download did not distinguish between MAK & KMS for the installation media.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

App-v 5 and Office2013 Volume Licence Edition - package fails to install with script error

$

We have used the MS Office Depolyment Tool for click-to-run to download the latest Office 365 version, and flatten it into an app-v 5 package - not a problem.

When we try to add the package to our client machine (running the app-v 5 SP2 client software), it fails with an message that a script has failed and not returned a 0 code.  We have not added any scripting to this automatically created package, so it seems that the app-v client does not like the "official" package.  Any hints and tips gratefully accepted, thanks

The powershell command line we are using is:

PS C:\windows\system32> Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
PS C:\windows\system32> Add-AppvClientPackage -path file://hostname/app-v/o365-noaccess/ProPlusVolume_en-us_zh-cn_x86.appv -DynamicDeploymentConfiguration \
\hostname\app-v\O365-NoAccess\ProPlusVolume_en-us_zh-cn_x86_DeploymentConfig.xml

with a result of:

Add-AppvClientPackage : Embedded Script process exited with an error code indicating failure (return code other than 0). Please ensure that Embedded
Script process can complete successfully and exits with 0.

Analysis ToolPak language compatibility

I am running a Japanese version of Windows 8.1 using the English language pack. On it I am running a Japanese version of Office 2013, running the English language pack for Office 2013. I have installed the Data Analysis ToolPak, but when I go to utilize any of the functions, they are all in Japanese. I tried reinstalling the Office English language pack, but have not had any success. I have looked at the article "Analysis ToolPak and Solver in wrong language after setup Office 2010 and MUI" for guidance, but am still stuck.

How can I change the Data Analysis ToolPak to English?  I have tried manually installing the Excel file from the language pack, and also simply replacing the analys32.xll file to no avail.

Thanks,

Office themes 2013

Is there any plan on adding in more office themes to the office 2013.  They are very bland and hurt my eyes after working on the computer for some time.  I don't see how this made it past the software test phase as I am a software engineer for the military.  We need more choices than just white or a off white.

Hi,

I have followed the instructions to download.  Hit the download button, wait while it downloads.  Download complete flashes, then nothing. I can't find the files to install on my computer anywhere.  I bought a product key which I'm supposed to enter when prompted but this never happens.  I've tried the download on two separate computers one operating windows 7 and the other 8. 

What is going wrong and where?  What do I need to do to download and install office?

Very frustrated..........

Downloaded mails show as read in main folder but not sub-folders

$

Hi there

I have just upgraded to a new computer and with it to Outlook 2013 from my old computer's Outlook 2010. I also imported the pst data file. Previously my email account was set up as pop3, but now by default it was done as IMAP.

When I download mails, they show up as read in the main folder, irrespective of whether I have viewed them on my iPhone or not. But, after I created some rules to move certain mails to sub-folders (that's the only rules I have) I note that the unread mails in the sub-folders show as unread, irrespective of whether I have read them on the iphone.

I have no issue re-reading mails on my computer, but what I desperately need to sort out is the unread mails in the main folder showing as having been read.

I have read other posts already, prior to asking this question, so I have resolved all the easy stuff - checking the settings for when a mail should show as read (only after having been displayed for 5 seconds), creating a new profile etc.

Please help!

Adding a shared mailbox to a user's Outlook profile, who has reviewer rights only, via PowerShell

$

Hello Everyone,

I'm working on trying to create something like a knowledge base for my company, and what I'm trying to accomplish is to create a shared mailbox on 365, add users to have read-only rights to the Inbox (which I can achieve via PowerShell) so they can't delete the articles, but it seems that by just adding Reviewer permission to a user, it doesn't force the mailbox to open on the end-user's Outlook profile - it only seems to automatically populate if I go through the exchange admin console and allow Full Access through User Delegation. 

Is there a way, via PowerShell, to open a shared mailbox in a user's Outlook profile?

Thanks for all the help!
