Office 2010 pptx file being d/l-ed as zip file

$
0
0

I have OS XP(3), IE8, Office 2010.  While this may appear to be a MS Office issue, please read on.

I am trying to d/l a pptx file from our organizational website (that I use regularly). The file is shown as a pptx file (as displayed by the properties feature), but when I click to d/l it, it shows up as a zip file to be opened and the computer tries to unzip it, but doesn't do a very good job in doing so.

I have tried to d/l other pptx files from other internet sites and they work (d/l) OK.

I have the same OS on another laptop and it d/ls this particular file from this particular site just fine.

I can change (rename) the extension on this file (from zip to pptx) and it works fine

I have tried everything reccomended on various PPT forums and it hasn't worked.

The file association is Microsoft PowerPoint.

The file d/ls perfectly with Firefox.

What is it about the configuration of XP/IE8 that lets this happen?

I recently did a system restore on my dell 537 and I used to run IE7.  Since the restore, IE9 is what is running now.  When my mother tries to play most of her online games at Pogo.com this is the message that keeps popping up. Never had this problem before. Can someone please help? I did try and go back to IE8 and still the same problem.

Portal SSO issue

$
0
0

We are using SAP Enterprise Portal (EP 7.0 SP 16) with SPNEGO setup with Microsoft AD.  But sometimes SSO does not function properly and prompting logon pad for SAP portal. We have checked all SAP related setting and found all configurations are correct. This happened intermittently. We had traced the error with SAP diagnostic tool and found that, this occurs due to IE browser sends NTLM instead of Kerberos when it cannot obtain a Kerberos token from Microsoft Key Distribution Center (MS KDC).

The error trace message is as below. Also attached herewith the trace file.

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

NTLM token found in authorization header during SPNego authentication

Authentication failed. Error during handshake. Check the trace file for details.

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

We checked all settings as per Knowledge Based Article (KBA) 1649110 and referenced SAP notes 934138 and 1313880 and found all settings are correct. Also need to mention that we have three SAP EP portal servers (Development, Test and Production). All these systems have independent configurations and settings at SAP end. However, whenever we observe this problem, it happens with all the three systems simultaneously – i.e. none of the portal is successfully accessed via SSO. This makes us believe that there can be issues outside the SAP environment which cause this sudden failure of SSO.

IE 8 Flashes and Disappears

Hi,

I am facing a serious problem regarding IE 8 which opens , flashes and disappears on a windows Xp SP3 operating system.

I have tried the following solution,

Reset IE Settings, Opened IE without addons and extensions, disabled antivirus and tried to open and at last i re installed IE  8 even then there is no luck for me .

still the same problem and i checked for events but no events as such. I can guess some files or registry entries are missing but i am not able to locate the file.

so guide me to solve the problem since some of the portals in our enterprise will work on IE 8.

Thanks & Regards ,

Siva

IE10 and UAG Extensions

Not sure where this goes, so I'll just post it in the General section.

I can't get the UAG extensions to install in IE10. I've tried all sorts of security settings, but can't get the ActiveX installer to "pop-up".
Is there a workaround?

Thx in advance - Marcus.

How to programmatically manage or set Default Search Providers in IE using PowerShell or vbs

$
0
0

Hi there,

I was looking to set the default search provider for some of our sites. I can see in the registry where this can be managed, but there seems to be a sort of self-healing behaviour if you just change the value in the HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopres\DefaultScope value. Doing a regshot, this seems to be tied to the HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\User Preferences values (I'm using Win7, so the one that changes when I manually change providers is 88D7D0879DAB32E14DE583A805A34F98AFF34F5977).

What I'd like to be able to do is programmatically set this for some of our sites as we deploy to users (without healing or pop ups about a program changing the default search provider). I just want it set once to what we expect it to be (google.com for US sites, google.ca for canadian sites), so doing so through GPO isn't an option. We can use GPP if possible, but I suspect to do it right, we'd need to do it programmatically, so that the "check" values in the registry are filled in properly.

I ran across this bit of code, the IOpenService::SetDefault, which I believe would do the trick. I'm wondering if this can be converted into PowerShell or vbscript. I guess next question would be what type of code is that example written in?





odd results from getBoundingClientRect when using optical zoom in ie10

$
0

When using the optical zoom feature in ie10 and scrolling I'm seeing a result that I think is perhaps incorrect from getBoundingClientRect. If you zoom in (pinch) and then scroll down the page so that an element is flush with the top of the viewable area:

  • When examining window.pageYOffset it will return the pixel scroll position as if no optical zoom is applied. Which is fine. Its just telling you the overall pixel position in the content.
  • If you examine the rect returned from getBoundingClientRect however for the element that is flush with the top of the viewable area the rect that is returned has the width and height as if no optical zoom is applied, which is guess is expected. But the top for the element is not at or close to 0. In my case its 177 or so. Which is close to the position it would be if no optical zoom is applied and you were scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page. 

I believe the top value returned from getBoundingClientRect is incorrect here as it should be telling your the offsets in regard to the viewable area, I would think. But perhaps I'm misunderstanding something.

The practical result is that this makes jQuery.fn.offset unreliable as it thinks that it can add getBoundingClientRect().top and window.pageYOffset in order to get the position of the element in the page.

Is this a bug in IE or is something else going on here?

I have IE9.  Ever since I deleted cookies, I need to set up my login to various sites every time I go to the site. 

I check keep me logged in but it no longer works.  As soon as I exit the browser I need to login again.  I not only have to login, I need to set up the account each time as if I am on a new computer.

Did some setting get changed when I delted cookies?  Please help.

I did not want to be part of a "forum" or join anything. I signed up mistakenly thinking it was part of trying to get an answer to my problem. Does anybody respond to these e mails? I can't get internet explorer to open up, though my computer says I have it. When I go to "start" and click on "all programs" and type internet explorer I only see it with add ons disabled. I can't use it like that. What do I have to do to get a shortcut on my tool bar to open IE9? I can't even get the home page.

IExplore process spikes CPU Cycles and hangs

$

I work in a corporate settings and IE8 is managed via IEAK and GPO.

Recently we have had IExplore start to hog CPU cycles and cause the system to hang.

This is happening throughout the enterprise.

Steps to take next are to load IE without any Addons and then possibly in SafeMode.

How would I determine where IE is hanging ?

I know we do not use the NOMERGE switch and not sure how tabs are being handled.

Please let me know if you need more information.

Kind Regards

What is causing Internet Explorer 9 and Bing Search solutions to redirect to random websites not selected

$
0
0

This is a new one for me. When selecting a result listing after searching a topic in Bing using Internet Explorer 9 my browser opens a new tab and redirects me to a website or link that I did not request. Sometimes the redirect is an Advertisement. Sometimes it's some Blog content that is not remotely connected to my search request. I've run malware and virus apps to determine if something is hidden, but they come back clean. BTW, this just started happening within the last 2 weeks. (July 16-25, 2012) Perhaps I should consider using a different browser and search engine. Any suggestions here are appreciated. Thank you.

Generating report from client outside domain

Hi!

I'm generating raport on Reporting Services 2008 R2. I'm opening Report Manager from computer outside work group. When i open Report Manager site i have to supply credentials server_name\user and password. After this i can open report and start generate. After 4 minutes i have prompt for credentials again and report is stopping/resetting to start before hit "View Report" even if i type correct credentials.

This situation is when i open it in IE 9. When i start report in Chrome all is ok. Reporti is running over 1 hour and i have results.

From local server i don't have problems with credentials.

What i have:

rsreportserver.config

<AuthenticationTypes>
<RSWindowsNegotiate/>
<RSWindowsNTLM/>
<RSWindowsBasic>
<LogonMethod>3</LogonMethod>
<Realm></Realm>
<DefaultDomain></DefaultDomain>
</RSWindowsBasic>
</AuthenticationTypes>

About adding to Trusted Sites. I did that, and nothing happens. I think it's problem with IE, because today i was playing with authentication methods, and Chrome was working OK at all the time, and IE still shows me credentials window.

IE9 makes my desktop icons and start-menu icons refresh all the time

$

Hello,

This problem has been filed several times before but I didn't see a solution to it so far.

IE9 on Windows 7 32 bits

 

When I browse to web-pages with IE9, my desktop icons refresh in 50% of the cases.

After such a desktop refresh, the same happens with my start-menu icons when I open the start menu.

The same happens with the shortcut icons to programs that I have brought together in a folder.

 

This is extremely annoying ! and until now there has not been any reaction from MS, nor has there been a solution .

 

The refresh happens at the very end of the page-loading process (about at the same time the favicon appears).

 

I have started IE9 without add-ons : the problem still exists

I have uninstalled/re-installed IE9 : the problem is still there.

MSE does not detect any malware.

I have ran sfc /scannow : no problems were found.

 

Does anybody have a clue what the cause of this problem is, and even better, what the solution is ?

Thank you so much in advance for your help.

AxInstall Service 4100 error

$
0

My environment is Windows 7sp1 64bit, running IE 8 32bit.  In a domain with Group Policies applied

I am trying to automate the installation of the 3dvia ActiveX control located here...

http://3dlifeplayer.dl.3dvia.com

I have created a group policy for "Approved Installation Sites for ActiveX" to include the site above.

Originally, I was gettign a not in policy 4097 error.  This problem was caused by my setting the policy values to 2,2,2,0.  The third number has to be 1 or zero so I changed it to 1.

Once I changed this to 2,2,1,0 I now get the 4100 error - which says unable to download.

Also when visiting the page.  I am asked if I want to install the ActiveX control - even though 2,2,2,0 means it should install silently.

The whole process is, visit the page and get the ActiveX install yellow bar.  Right-click and choose install. Then a UAC comes up asking me for credentials for the "Internet Explorer Add-on Installer"  I click cancel as I do not want the users to have to provide this information.  I thoght the whole point of the AxInstall Service was to allow non-elevated users to install ActiveX controls from approved sites.  I am pretty certain that the policy is being applied correctly because the error changed from a 4097 when I had an error in the policy to 4100 once I got the policy correct.

Multiple users leads to repeated IE search providers?

$

Hello all.  I had asked this in the RDP forum but was directed to post again in the IE forum here.  Below is the relevant text of my original post.

My firm has a farm of Server 2008 servers acting as terminal servers for our end users, with roaming profiles enabled.

When creating a new user's profile we select Google as the default search engine for IE8's search box.  This leaves just two providers, Google and Bing.  Later I'll look at the dropdown list for any random user and find dozens of available search providers, a single Bing plus repeated Google entries.  I'm certain the users aren't somehow doing this themselves, because I've yet to find an unaffected user.

As near as I can tell some users' default provider are added to the list for others.  I can reduce the list down to just two again manually, but the root of the issue remains and the list gets populated again.  I'm unsure what triggers the re-listing.

I've found that the relevant registry key is HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes, but this doesn't give me any leads about why the repeated entries.  It confirms my notion that multiple users are at the root of this, because many of the registry values list other users by name.

Does anybody know what causes this and how to prevent it?

Any help would be appreciated.
