Troubleshooting Print Driver Issues in Citrix

2008-05-24T11:29:00.003-04:00

If you get a call from client saying that he/she cant print from any applications on citrix server and when he/she presses print icon application gets locked or hangs it means print spooler needs to be restarted on (NDSVM) citrix server. Try restarting cpsvc.exe and spoolsv.exe, in case you get an error message that cpsvc.exe cant be stopped please use killtask command from cmd to force these services to be stopped and then restart them. Problem should get resolved.

Run command line from your machine. Example: taskkill /s imwmnys158ts /F /IM cpsvc.exe

Outlook Error Message

2008-04-30T20:20:00.001-04:00

Have you ever had problems printing daily shared calendar and got an error message
"The messaging interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem persists restart Outlook".
This error might occur if you have delegate rights to someone's Calendar but not to their Tasks and you are trying to print their calendar using Daily Style which includes printing task pad. This problem can be resolved by modifying the Print style to exclude task items.
If you go to File--Print--Define Styles. Highlight Daily Style and click on the Edit button then uncheck the Include TaskPad option and click OK. You will be able to print daily calendar after this.
Another way to get it fixed is to ask calendar owner to include permissions for Tasks.

Customized Quick Access Toolbar in Office 2007

2008-04-15T18:20:00.001-04:00

The Problem: User receives a new machine and loses customized MS Office 2007 Quick Access Toolbars (the user only has default options Save, Undo, Redo).

When you first customize your quick access toolbar in Word, Excel, or other Office 2007 apps, it saves this information locally on your XP machine or NDS server in a file called Word.qat, Excel.qat, etc. This files are located here:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Office
The files are not created until you actually customize the toolbar. When you connect to a different machine or get a new machine, you don’t actually retain these settings because these .qat files are stored under the local settings of your local profile, they are never uploaded to the roaming server profile.

In theory, settings like this should be saved to roaming profile or z: drive.

Sharepoint Error when try to edit documents

2008-04-08T19:21:00.003-04:00

If you are getting message Edit document requires Windows SharePoint Services- compatible application and Microsoft IE5.0 or greater.
First you need to check this on your Internet Explorer:
- go to Tools->Manage Add-ons->Enable or Disable Add-ons
- next to Show: click on the drop-down menu and select "Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer"
- on the list do you see "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" with the file name being OWSSUPP.DLL
- if it is in Disabled status, select it and change it to Enable.
- also check the status under "Add-ons currently loaded in Internet Explorer"
- restart IE and try to update SharePoint again

If you have more than one add-ons likely they are from previous versions of Office.

This KB article also explains methods of fixing the problem of editing document on sharepoint site in case if you are interested.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/833714%20
If this article does not solve problem and when you are trying to unregister and register dll you are getting these messages
DllUnregisterServer in owssupp.dll failed. Return code was: 0x80070005.
DllRegisterServer in owssupp.dll failed. Return code was: 0x80070716.

then we need to check to see if there are any leftover directories from previous installs of Office. In the [Drive Letter]:\Program files\Microsoft Office\ directory(10, 11, or 12) directory find whichever one has a copy of owssupp.dll in it. Copy the owssupp.dll file into the directory that doesn’t have one. Now check to see if we can edit files from SharePoint without any trouble.
If it does not work after this and enabling dll then just uninstall Office and delete all of its directories, reboot and reinstall MS Office.
