CRM 2011 and 2013 open in mobile mode on IE 11 - dynamics-crm-2011

I just got updated to IE 11 and when I log on to CRM 2013 it takes me to the mobile version of the application. Same with 2013.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on how to fix this other than changing the browser mode?

A quick fix around this is to add /main.aspx in the end of URL.
eg. your CRM URL would be http://xyz:5555/orgname then just append to it http://xyz:5555/orgname/main.aspx and you should be able to access CRM normally.

Internet Explorer 11 isn't currently supported by CRM 2011, you can add the site to the Compatibility View Settings to resolve the issue.
Update:
Internet Explorer 11 is supported by CRM 2011 from Update Rollup 17
Internet Explorer 11 is supported by CRM 2013 from Update Rollup 2
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2011 Compatibility List
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Compatibility List

Okay, after doing some digging, I was able to locate this which looks like it has a very promising workaround that DOESN'T need to be applied on each indvidual machine, but rather is done at the IIS level via URL rewriting. http://www.sidesofmarch.com/index.php/archive/2013/12/12/stopping-internet-explorer-11-from-showing-the-mobile-express-version-of-dynamics-crm-2011/
Note: this will only work on an onsite deployment - unfortunately there's still not a solid workaround for an online deployment short of what was already pointed out.

CU17 on CRM2011 and CU2 on CRM2013 now solve this issue as well.

Navigate to the website that isn't displaying properly.
In Internet Explorer (desktop), tap and hold on the bar at the top (or right click).
Tap on "Menu bar" so it's highlighted and there is a tick by it. A menu with File, Edit, View, Favourites, Tools and Help should appear.
Go to tools and open "Compatibility View Settings". "Add this website" should have the domain of the site you've visited already filled, so click "Add".
Close the windows then refresh the website that wasn't displaying properly. It should hopefully now display as it should.

Unable to import Dynamics CRM 2013 Custom Code Validation Tool solution

We're working on upgrading CRM 2011 to CRM 2013 and I'm trying to upload the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Custom Code Validation Tool and the exact solution file name is CustomCodeValidationToolForMicrosoftDynamicsCRM201_2_0_0_1_managed.zip
It was downloaded from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30151
I'm using IE 11 on Windows 8.1 and as you may know CRM's Html forces the browser to use IE8 settings. The CRM website does not open in Chrome. The popup blocker is also disabled.
I have tried several times to import the solution but everytime it gets stuck on the "Import Customizations Dialog". There is no JavaScript error when the file is uploaded for import, the errors in the console appear when I click on the Import Solution button in the solution section.
Any ideas what could be done to fix it.
The solution was to install CRM 2011 Update rollup 17 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42672

CRM 2011 (rollup 12) shows the mobile view instead of the normal view in non IE browsers

I recently went to do a demo of some a CRM solution I had been developing but when I tried displaying it on my MAC in firefox and chrome it comes up with the mobile interface. The instance will never be used on mobile devices so I want to disable this functionality for the whole site...How do I do this?
I had the same issue when I opened crm on firefox (on explorer and chrome it was ok), I assume you are using roll up 12 since only from this rollup you have other browsers besides internet explorer integration.
The issue with me was that for some reason, it opened the "default.aspx" page, which opened this url:
https://mydomain:444/m/default.aspx
When the correct address should be:
https://mydomain:444/main.aspx#
I'm also guessing that you have set up ADFS..
I had the same problem and what helped for me was to add the site to the Compatibility View in Internet Explorer.
If you're using IE 11, try compatibility mode. Settings -> Compatibility View Settings

This Project Server 2010 feature requires at least Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0

I have encounter to following error when I try to access "Manage TimeSheet" and "Project Center" page in my pwa site:
"Error
This Project Server 2010 feature requires at least Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.
Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.
Correlation ID: 8f9f635b-c95b-4e2d-bd0a-e662c5d7b4ed"
I use Windows 8 (IE 10) and I have enable Compatibility mode.
This problem was first occurred when I installed and then uninstalled "Avant Browser" in my system.
I have read some texts that explain how this problem occurs and how to solve it.
Some of suggested solutions I have found are:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2394699
http://epmsource.com/2012/06/05/windows-8-release-preview-and-project-server-2010/
But unfortunately none of them solved my problem.
How can I fix this problem?
You have already added the URL to Compatability view, so I suggest to add the URL to local Intranet sites that solved the issue in my case.
For more details check Project Server 2010 requires at least Microsoft Internet Explorer 7
Did you change the User Agent as the links suggest?
I have also found that if there are restrictions or missing base Active X controls you may also get the "Error This Project Server 2010 feature requires...."
Not sure what they are but found that when trying to use the modern.ie virtual machines they would not work with Project Server 2010.

Dynamics 2011 CRM - Visual Studio Developer Tools / Org Mismatch

I'm creating a CRM 2011 plug-in. I created it with the Visual Studio Solution Template for Dynamics 2011, and authored it as a CRM 2011 Plug-In Library. After completing the iniital implementation and testing in CRM, I now need to associate the plugin with a different Entity / Attribute / SDK Message. So...I re-opened VS to try to create another plug-in or to otherwise edit it this one.
Oddly, I get a WCF Error from Visual Studio's IDE when I re-start an existing SLN that used to work. Specifically, I get the error when I start the CRM Explorer in VS. The error is pretty generic -
The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error. etc .etc.
The CRM Explorer tree shows 0 Entities and 0 Option Sets after the error, though the other tree nodes seem to have the correct content. It feels to me that something in my Org or CRM Server has broken the VS integration, but don't have any idea what that might have been. I mean I hadn't made any changes to the Org at all in a week or so (though I did apply August Windows Updates!). I'm on Cum Update 8 at the moment.
When I delete the hidden blah.SUO and the blah.docstates.suo files, and restart VS ... the CRM Explorer prompts for my server / credentials / Org as expected for the initial start. However, I get the above WCF error again and the CRM Explorer does not populate correctly following this "reset". I have also tried uninstalling the CRM Developer Toolkit without luck.
Anyone seen this behavior before, or have any suggestions?
I have seen something like that happen when the WCF endpoints were re-configured (CRM Deployment Manager). You can check to see what the endpoints are in the Settings - Customizations - Developer Resources
I had a similar issue: trying to connect to CRM Server through development toolkit add-in to VS.
Resolution: add the user to the CRM Organisation and assign role "System Administrator".

SharePoint Error "The list cannot be displayed in Datasheet View"

How to fix this error in SharePoint:
"The list cannot be displayed in
Datasheet view. A datasheet component
compatible with Windows SharePoint
Services is not installed, your
browser does not support ActiveX
controls, or support for ActiveX
controls
It started to days ago, for apparently no reason. ActiveX is enabled on this site and I had everything working fine so far. Not sure what went wrong.
Thanks,
... from IE check out your Internet Options, and look under 'Programs'->'Manage Add-Ons'
When I had this problem it was because an add-on was missing or disabled... * thinks * "Microsoft Office List 12.0" or something.
I was getting the below in SharePoint 2010.
The Standard View of your list is being displayed because your browser
does not support running ActiveX controls.
Turns out the site (master page) was being rendered in IE9 mode and the datasheet supports only up to IE8.
The datasheet mode can be used temporarily by switching the Document mode and the User agent string both to IE 8, or permanently by using the meta tag X-UA-Compatible IE=8.
This is known issue and you have to install the hotfix provided by Microsoft.
The issue is addressed in the below specified link along with the URL for the hotfix.

Let me know whether the suggested solution fixes your issue
Please install below data connectivity component to resolve this issue.

This link helped me and it worked fine. Our environment was Windows 7 64bit and MS office 64bit as well, after installing this connectivity tools, user had a option edit the data sheet view in sharepoint.
I ran into the same issue after updating to Office 365 but remaining with IE 11 and Sharepoint 2010.
Issue:
using a 64-bit version of Office with a 32-bit version of IE
Reference: Technet
Resolution: Installed 2007 Office System Driver: Data
Connectivity Components
Seems like a client/browser problem.. do you have Microsoft Office installed? Did you change security settings in Internet Explorer?
My environment is SP2010 enterprise and after trying several solutions, I realized that the user that could not see the views in Datasheet style was because did not have installed "Microsoft Access" that is required when you are using views in datasheet style. So the solution for me was to upgrade that specific user from Office Standard to Office Professional
For me, I performed the following and it worked for me:
Open Control Panel and open Programs and Features
Find your instance of Microsoft Office and select it
Click change at the top
On the dialog that comes up, click Add or Remove Features and then continue
Make sure Microsoft Access Web Datasheet Component is installed under Office Tools/Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support
Even if it is showing as installed, click Continue.
Let everything install, close any office programs out, then try again
These steps worked for me.
