Sharepoint 2013 mobile for BI

Does sharepoint support mobile view for BI tools OOTB?

or Do I have to create a different master page and css files for different devices?


Is this possible?

I am new to SharePoint, very new. A little background first:

I inherited a SharePoint 2010 site and in the course of writing about SharePoint, InfoPath, and using workflows, I think I may have an idea to help my department with a form that is filled out multiple times each week.

Question:

I would like to know if it is possible to create a workflow which would do the following after a user checks a checkbox:

open a cancellation form

populate the form with SharePoint item information

Allow user to choose a reason for the cancellation

email form

Is this too complicated?

I have been loading pictures using a Picture Library. Is there a way to load TIFF files directly into a custom list in SharePoint 2010?

Authentication prompt when opening locally saved, SP-sourced Word file

$

I am downloading copies of Word documents that are sourced from a SharePoint document library that includes two "Person or Group" columns, which are linked to our organization's staff directory.

When I try to open the now-local copy, I am getting two SP authentication requests, presumably, one for each column.

Is there a way to prevent this authentication request from appearing, now that the copy of the original file is off SP?

Thanks

Open a List Form in a Modal Dialog Box from Left (Current) Navigation

$
0
0

I have read multiple articles on how to do this, but I am running into problems.

eg. link or link

The problem may lie in how I am trying to implement this.

I have a list with a form that I will be using for feedback purposes. I have created a link on the left-hand navigation called Feedback which appears on multiple pages. I want a user to be able to click on this link and have a modal form pop-up over their current page. When finished, the modal form should disappear and allow them to continue what they were doing. Therefore the user never sees the list where the feedback is housed, only I do as the admin.

This seems slightly different from what others have tried to do: implementing a button (using a CEWP) which, when clicked, opens a modal dialogue. Perhaps I am just too dimwitted to figure this out. Is this possible?

thank you!

HI All,

Client object model class List provides one property DefaultViewURL which essentially returns me relative path of List address(URL). Is there any property of Client context object model where i can get complete Web address of Sharepoint list. e.g. 

Complete address - http://wid038/TestSite/Lists/233333/view.aspx

DefaultViewURL- TestSite/Lists/233333/view.aspx

 

Thanks

after backup restores sql server error can't create folder, and can't search into list / library from ribbon

$

after having created a portal on a development platform, I made a backup Sql server then restores the production platform with sql server. 
Two problems : 

Problem 1: 
1 in libraries error "An unexpected error" when creating FOLDER from ribbon even with Action page -> Manage content and structure. I could only create a folder with "Open with Explorer" in the ribbon. In the folder I created, i can create a subfolder with ribbon, but not a folder in the root of the library. I create a sub sites and in this case it does not have any problem, I created a folder !!! 

Problem 2: 
2 The search from the search box in the lists and library does not work. I need it working. I create a search site and it works fine, but I want to do research on lists and libraries.

-------------------------------------------

aprés avoir créer un portail sur une plateforme de développement, j'ai effectué un backup Sql server puis un restaure sur la plateforme de production avec sql server.
2 problèmes sont apparus :

Problème 1 :
1. dans les bibliothèques de documents  erreur " An unexpected error" lors de la création de DOSSIER du ruban, même avec Action du site -> Gérer le contenu et la structure. j'ai seulement pu créer un dossier avec "Ouvrir avec l'explorateur" dans le ruban. Dans le dossier créer j'ai pu créer un sous-dossier avec le ruban, mais pas un dossier dans la racine de la bibliothèque. J'ai créer un sous sites et dans ce cas il n'y as pas de problème, j'ai pu créer un dossier !!!

Problème 2 :
2. La recherche à partir de la zone de recherche dans les listes et bibliothèque ne fonctionne pas. J'ai besoin que ca fonctionne. j'ai creer un site de recherche et il fonctionne correctement, mais je veux faire des recherches sur les listes et bibliothèques.

Hi All,

We have a form library with around 2000 InfoPath forms submitted successfully, but suddenly from the couple of weeks noticing that, the users are able to submit the form successfully without any issues but the referenced .xml file is physically not
getting saved and the strange thing is it's reference(i.e. xml) is available. When we try opening the form it gives below error.<o:p></o:p>

InfoPath cannot open the following file ‘formpath/.xml’ ”<o:p></o:p>

When we try viewing the version history, it gives below error:<o:p></o:p>

"The URL 'filename.xml' is invalid. It may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file or folder that is not in the current web"<o:p></o:p>

I have also looked at the logs but not much information. Can someone help me?

Public Facing SharePoint 2010 Website and Mac / iPad Users

$

We have public facing websites that were originally built with SharePoint 2007 then upgraded to SharePoint 2010.  However, some of our customers who use Apple Macs and iPads are having issues with the top navigation links (global navigation).

When they try to click on the top navigation, the navigation is not linked (i.e. it is only text and not links).  

The customer has said that they this is happening with Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari on their Apple Mac.  They have also had the issues on iPads using Safari.  Unfortunately, I do not have access to an Apple Mac or iPad to test.  

Our website addresses are:   www.wdc.govt.nz and www.whangarei-libraries.com

Has anyone else had these issues?  If so, did you manage to fix them and how?

Any help is greatly appreciated. 


Sites Intermittently Not Responding After Service Pack 2

$

Got a strange intermittent issue occurring after we upgraded our SharePoint 2010 farm to Service Pack 2.

The upgrade was successful on all of our servers with no errors and generally performance is a little quicker as should be expected. However we have an intermittent issue where some site collections within the main web application become unresponsive.

We have 2 front end servers sitting behind a network load balancer. 

All sites have a dedicated content database.

The issue occurs on either front end server.

An app pool recycle fixes the issue until it occurs again, however we can't go recycling app pools constantly during business hours as we have around 3000 users connecting to our SharePoint portal.

ULS logs and event logs don't show anything abnormal really (however just dialled up the logging to verbose to look into it further).

Any suggestions?


Discussion Board's Last Updated column not being updated

$

OOTB behaviour is whenever a reply is added to a thread, the Last Updated column gets updated. However, in one of our discussion boards, the Last Updated column does not get updated and stays on the date & time the thread was started.

Seems that it is only a problem on that particular discussion board because when I created another OOTB discussion board on the same site, the Last Updated column gets updated correctly - it gets updated whenever a reply is added to the thread.

Hope someone could help how to further troubleshoot as it is not an option to recreate the discussion board.

Strange behaviour of Notepad.

Hi All,

Case 1.

I created one text file "test.txt". I opened this text file. The file was opened and i renamed the same open text file from "test.txt" to "tested.txt". i closed the open file. There was no warning message and operation executed successfully. The text file got renamed from "test.txt" to "tested.txt"

Case 2:

I created one text file "test.txt". I opened this text file. I copied this file and tried to paste on other folder path. It did not raise any warning message and the operation was successful. Same thing happens with files having extention .ini and .hed

Same thing does not happen with excel file. It raise exception and confirms with user saying the file is open. I believe in notepad also exception should be raised and confirmation should be taken from user when the file is in use.

Thanks,

Shamim
