Fix Office 2010 Activation Error 0x8007001

Problem :

I am running Windows XP Professional 2002 SP3 on a desktop workstation connected to a corporate network. I downloaded the Office 2010 Professional Plus beta. I elected to do a custom installation and install only Publisher 2010. The installation completed successfully. I have been unable to activate the software. When I attempt to do so, I get the following message: "An unspecified error has occurred. Your request cannot be processed at this time. Please try again later. (0x8007001)." I have tried repeatedly. I have de-installed and re-installed. I was able to install and activate the product on my laptop.


Solution :

1.) Start menu --> Run... --> regedit
2.) Search for this registry key (you might want to right click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE --> Find..., and type 4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 into the box):

HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\CONTROL\CLASS\{4D36E967-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

3.) Look for UpperFilters, which is of type REG_MULTI_SZ
4.) Double-click on it, and under Value data, add "PartMgr" to the top of the list. Click OK.
5.) Restart your computer.
6.) Start Word (or any Office application), and follow the prompts to activate.

We have implemented numerous OCS infrastructures. But with one customer we have a strange problem. On all the windows XP laptops (different brands) the communicator crashes after using the options with the right mouse button. For example starting a Live Meeting session. The laptops are up to date regarding the microsoft updates. On the Windows 7 laptops, no problem. The only differents is the way the communicator has been installed on the laptops.

Fix Outlook 2010 With Communicator 2007 R2 Error

Problem :

I use Windows 7 Enterprise (x64) with Outlook 2010 (x64) and Communicator 2007 R2 . I get Outlook Integration error in Office Communicator and could not update status information.
"Communicator could not determine the location of your Exchange Web services"


Solution :


What is in the latest released update for OC 2007 R2 for Exchange Connectivity:

· 64-bit MAPI is not supported for OC 2007 R2 in any configuration.

· In the event that MAPI is not available (Outlook not installed, or only 64bit MAPI is available) OC 2007 R2 falls back to EWS.

· In order for OC to discover Exchange and EWS, auto-discovery for Exchange to be enabled via the Exchange auto-discovery URLs.



Connectivity to Exchange Online:

· For customers that are using ExOnline where no auto-discovery is provisioned by BPOS, they should use 32 bit Office instead of 64 bit Office.

o BPOS uses local configuration files via the Single-Sign On Service Agent to configure Outlook to connect to ExO. OC relies solely on Exchange auto-discovery which is not configured for ExOnline.

o This will allow OC 2007 R2 to leverage 32bit MAPI to access Exchange Online via Outlook’s local configuration file that BPOS SSO/Service Agent drops.



Outlook Integration Error with 64bit Office 2010:

· For customers that are seeing an issue with on-premise Exchange deployments where auto-discovery is setup and enabled as described above , OC 2007 R2 CU4 should be able to connect to Exchange. These customers will still see an Outlook integration error in OC (since we couldn’t integrate with Outlook x64).

o For example, free/busy and out-of-office information should still be available in OC via EWS.

Hope this helps clarify the questions here.

Fix Outlook 2010 Error 30023

Problem :

Has anyone been playing with the outlook 2010 deployment scripts yet? We're testing outlook before the full package.
We seem to have run into an odd error that doesn't appear online when running the default script provided by MS.

C:\>start /wait \\srv1\pathToOutlookFolder\setup.exe /config \\srv1\pathToOutlookFolder\Outlook.WW\config.xml
C:\>echo Fri 06/25/2010 16:46:33.03 Setup ended with error code 30023. 1>> c:\\error.txt


Solution :

Error 30023 typically means there is a problem with your installation source. My recommendation would be to save your config.xml and your Office Customization Tool MSP file, delete your entire Office 2010 source folder, and then re-built it from unaltered, original source. Add your config.xml and setup msp to the new source and run setup.exe.

Your command line example syntax is good. If these steps don't resolve your issue you should enable verbose setup logging to help determine root cause. To enable logging, change this line in your config.xml:

Fix Outlook 2010 Emails Disappearing Error

Problem :

A few days ago i installed Office 2010 on my Windows 7 laptop, replacing Office 2007. All seemed well and Outlook retrieved emails from my pair of Pop mail servers.
Then i noticed an email appear in my Inbox, only disappear a second later. This has since happened 3 or 4 more times that i have observed. I've searched within Outlook (junk and deleted included) without success. I now have retain on server enabled so that i can use webmail and see the emails - they do not download again.


Solution :

There are 3 common scenarios in which this could happen.

To change or reset your view use;

Change view; tab View-> button Change View-> Compact (and optionally set the Arrangement to Date)

Reset view; tab View-> button Reset View

To verify/change your default delivery location;

File-> section Info-> button Accounts Settings-> Account Settings…-> tab Data Files-> select the Exchange mailbox-> button Set As Default

Additionally, on the E-mail tab, select the Exchange account and verify that your delivery location is set to the correct mailbox.

Third party add-ins

If you have such an add-in installed, you should check their settings to see what they do with the emails; move it to another folder, delete it directly or move it to some storage/quarantine location of their own. You can consult the vendor of the add-in which options are available to you.

Fix Visio 2007 SP2 Crashes Error

Fix Office 2010 Slow Printing Error From Network Printer

Problem :

The title says it all. It takes 2 to 4 minutes for anything printed from an Office document to a networked Canon iR2870 copier. It doesn't matter if it's a doc or docx, xls or xlsx, etc. If it's open in Office 2010, it takes for ever to print. If it's printed from Office 2007, it prints in under 30 seconds. Any suggestions?


Solution :


1. Go to Start, Control Panel and Administrative Tools. Double click on Services icon.


2. Scroll down to the Print Spooler service and right click on it and select Stop. In order to do this, you need to be logged in as Administrator. At this point, no one will be able to print anything on any of the printers that are being hosted on this server.


3. Next you need to go to the following directory: C:\WINDOWS\System32\spool\PRINTERS. Delete all the files in this folder. This will clear all print queues (it’s a good idea to first make sure there are no other print jobs being processed on any of the other printers on the server because doing this step will delete those jobs also)


4. Now you can go back to the Services console and right-click and choose Start for the Print Spooler service!

Fix Outlook 2003 crashes in Windows 7 64-bit

Problem :

I recently placed 6 new HP Desktops with Windows 7 64-bit OS. We transferred the licenses from the the old pc's to the new pc's. This was the Office 2003 Professional suite. Everything worked fine until about mid to late January. I started getting calls from our users with the new pc's that their Outlook 2003 crashed everytime they tried to reply to an email or send a new email.


Solution :

This can sometimes help if the crash is commonly reported and will likely be asked for by support.

1. Click Start, Run and type eventvwr.msc and click OK
2. Expand the Application Log (Windows Logs, Application Log)
3. Right click the Application Log and click Filter Current Log
4. For Event ID enter the number 1000
5. Find the event for the last crash and note the time stamp.
6. If you have clicked to send the error report to Microsoft the event will also be listed as 1001. Change the filter to filter on 1001 and search for the original that corresponds to the 1000 time stamp.
a. It is preferred to filter with event 1001 so that we can see the Watson Bucket ID.
7. Locate the recent crash event and open it. Click the Copy button to copy it and then paste it to Notepad or Word to remove any personal details like the computer name.

Fix Outlook 2010 Crashes Constantly

Problem :

The Outlook 2010 RTM constantly crashes when trying to click on an email, change reading pane or add additional accounts.


Solution :

Just use the latest Office 2010 RTM products. Then do the following: As you setup Outlook 2010 to work for the first time, there you'll need to input your correct ISP settings for either a pop3/IMAP 4 email accounts that you use. Also If the settings are not done correctly, you'll experience those problems you were having. - This depends upon how you setup your ISP settings within Outlook 2010, then also do remember to send yourself the test message that's displayed within Outlook 2010 there before completing your E-mail accounts settings within Outlook 2010 as this is to check that everything is in order with Outlook 2010! - If the test message does not get done correctly, then you have an ISP pop3/IMAP e-mail settings issue!

Also, do take the following into concideration:> Your chosen Virus Scanner that you use for Windows 7 / Vista etc. - Please do try to either use the Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/?mkt=en-us (you'll need to select the download possibly twice to actually get their download), or just use the Panda Global Security 2010 as both these products do work fully with all the Microsoft Office 2010 products.

The following virus scanners does clash with Outlook 2010 and also with Outlook 2007 as well. Becareful if & when using these anti-virus / virus scanners:> F-Secure 2009, Trend Micro Internet Security Pro 2010, Norton 360 v3x series. If using F-Secure Internet Security 2010 or a previous version, then pay attention to this:> If your system has any form of a nVIDIA Ion/GeForce Graphics Cards installed, then F-Secure will auto un-install all your nVIDIA drivers + any of the Ion/GeForce software that was installed by nVIDIA and it will also block these drivers as a problem, (this means you'll have no correct nVIDIA graphics drivers, so don't use it if you have any nVIDIA graphics card upon your computer/notebook system! Trend Micro will clash with Outlook 2010 if your Trend Micro settings are not correctly configured, so best to avoid that if using Outlook 2010.

Lastly, you may beta test out any of the various anti-virus 2010 scanners available, but do so at your own risk!

Fix Outlook 2010 Error Code 0x8004010F

Problem :

Outlook 2010 was working fine when I realised that I had placed my .pst file (I am NOT using Exchange here) into the wrong folder.

I rebooted the PC, moved the .pst file and then restarted Outlook. Everything seemed to be fine; the accounts settings were fine (I tested send/receive) but when I hit F9 for the real send/receive I received the error message "Outlook Data file cannot be accessed."

Outlook knows where the .pst file is as I am looking at it now - but for some reason it can't send nor receive.

Solution :

I also had an issue with sendig and receiving with Outlook 2010 (RTM) with one email account (have about 6 setup) when I migrated from Outlook 2003. Errors were as follows:

Receiving reported error (0x8004010F) : 'Outlook data file cannot be accessed.'
Sending reported error (0x8004010F) : 'Outlook data file cannot be accessed.'

I was able to access the email folders, and all of the other email accounts that accessed the same PST were fine. This proved that there were no issues actually accessing the PST file - what was going on. A Internet search or 2 later, it looked like it might be a profile issue, but I wasn't willing to just accept this and re-create the profile. I started looking at the profile setup, and in particular the location for the received email for the account that was failing. The Account Settings - Email accounts screen indicated that the email was being received in the correct location - personal folders\inbox, and this was also the case for the email accounts that were working. I then went to change the receive location (Change Location button), and noticed that it didn't display the same receive location as the summary screen! I checked a working account, and it did display correctly. I then changed the folder on the "broken" account to Personal Folders\inbox (just as it had said it was set to in the Email Accounts screen) and everything started working again.

In summary, it appears that one email account was trying to save incoming email into my hotmail account inbox, even though the configuration looked like it should be delivering it to my Personal Folders\Inbox. So if you have the above error, make sure the email is being delivered to the correct location before trying the other suggestion of re-creating the profile.

Fix Emails Crash in outlook 2010 Error

Problem :

When i try to read some emails in outlook 2010 it crashes. it's only when I read the message but I think it only happens for a certain type of message but as i can't view the message i don't know what common denominator is involved.


Solution :

I was experiencing issues where Outlook 2010 would crash when clicking on certain emails (from certain people) or when clicking on File (from the Menu bar). This only occurred when Outlook was connected. When Outlook was offline, it would work fine.



The following modification resolved the issue:



1. Disconnect the computer from the network

2. In Outlook, select File > Options

3. Select Contacts

4. In the Online status and photographs section, untick Show user photographs when available (requires restarting Outlook 2010)

5. Click OK

6. Restart Outlook
