Problem with Office files, synching with Skydrive

25. October 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags: , , ,
I've had problems with my Office's excel files, actually right after the 8.1 update.

Simply told, when I want to update my excel files with my Windows phone, I get this error message that the file can't be saved on Skydrive, and the given advice on fixing the problem doesn't work. When I try to open the file from Skydrive (Web app and computers own Excel) it gives me error message  telling that the file is corrupted or the way the file is saved is not supported.

Deleting the file from Drive and saving again with Windows phone doesn't work. Saving new files doesn't work either. Is it a bug, or is there a way I can save my files? 

Thank you :)

Can’t UPLOAD files to Skydrive

I just can't upload office files to Skydrive anymore. Any other files, no problem, I can upload a PDF files, etc. When it comes to lets say a Excel file or Word, this Microsoft Office Upload Center pops up and then tell me I need to sign in. I am signed in obviously. What's going on?

 

Please help!

 

Thank You!

Hi,

We are working with a team of 3 people. We will be using Office365. I want to use one skydrive account where all our office files will be stored. We use a lot of folders and subfolders.

Is it possible for every team member to acces thesame skydrive account, work on files and save them again in the right folder?

Thanks for your input.

I have a user that has attached 5 files one .pdf couple of .docx one .doc and one .xlsx 
Domain environment with exchange 2010 
Files are sent from microsoft windows office 2010 win7 machine.
The files show up on win7 microsoft outlook 2010 fine no problems 
When sent to a macbook pro with Office for mac 2011 Outlook for mac it shows up with a .dat file attached and no office files.

I have a MacBook so I suggested that the user send it to my email and I would check out the problem on mine and troubleshoot it from there!
I was expecting to see the .dat file so I could trouble shoot it but to my surprise the office attachments were there same mac OS same  office for mac

Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated 
Thanks in advance

Sync office files dont work when skydrive is set to Use Office to sync files faster option

I have office 2013. There is problem with synchronizing my office and only office documents to skydrive when option Use Office to sync files faster and work on files.... is set on. 
When this option is set on and Ill copy any other than office (docx, xlsx file) into my local skydrive folder, lets say txt file it synchronized immediate without problem. But on docx files skydrive icon have status - processing changes - and nothing happens. File size is similar. When I uncheck this option, so set it off docx files are synchronized immediatelly. So wheres the problem with this option? Must something be set up in office?
Offices are connected to my skydrive account as I can see...

Office Files not Syncing

19. July 2013 · Write a comment · Categories: Hotmail, Outlook.com · Tags:
Yesterday I opened my SkyDrive folder in Explorer and saw that I have "2527 files that can't be synced with SkyDrive".  It looks like these are all Office files, although OneNote files seem ok.  Pdf and other file types are syncing.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling SkyDrive, but that didn't fix it.  I am using Office 2013.  Please help!

Outlook – why a space hog?

Every day I get a warning message that yet another 1% of my hard drive is gone. Since I am not saving any big files like pictures or music on it, primarily only Office files, I couldn't figure out where the space was getting eaten up from.  I used WhatSize to investigate, and the hog turns out to be Outlook. 33.5 GB is for message sources.  What is "message sources"?  How can I keep this from multiplying so fast?  I only have 5% left on my hard drive.  The 2nd biggest thing on my hard drive is Application Support at 15.2 GB, so it seems that Outlook is clearly the hog.  How can I control this ravenous beast?

P.S. There's also 2.31 GB for Outlook 2004 identities.  When I got this computer, I transferred the user to here, and my old computer had Outlook 2004.  Can I get rid of that?
