SharePoint OOTB Approval Workflow Issue - sharepoint

I'm getting a strange issue when setting up a SharePoint Approval workflow. This is in MOSS 2007 running on Win 2008.
If I try and create a new approval workflow(or any ootb workflow), I will get to the Add a workflow page (_layouts/AddWrkfl.aspx) and enter the initial paramaters. Once I click next to go to the Customize Workflow (_layouts/CstWrkflIP.aspx) I get the following error in the main section of the page:
There has been an error while loading the form. A required resource could not be downloaded. To try to resume the download, refresh the page.
This has me stumped. I find no error in the event log or SharePoint logs.
I saw a previous post point to a HTTPModule causing the error. The only extra HTTPModule we use is for DevExpress. I removed it, but still had the some issue.
If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
I've just noticed that the issue does not occur in Google Chrome, this lets me get to the Customize Workflow page with no issue. It's obviously some IE issue but still dont understand what. I've asked colleagues to try and they get the same issue in IE.
thanks

I've been able to get around the issue by going into IE - Tools -Internet Options- Advanced - Reset.
I would love to know what IE was not happy about though...

Infopath form loading error

we have migrated a site from sharepoint 2010 to office365. I had a infopath form previously now the form in office365 is giving me a loading error.Can anyone help me thanks in advance
I wish there were more details about the errors, but try clearing cookies and see if it's related. Sometimes clearing cookies helps in similar situations on Office365
What is the error you are getting? I know our issue was in a SP List where we had a dropdown item that was still pointing to the old SP and a rule on form load to query this old SP List and wouldnt open. I had to create a Find and replace powershell command to overcome this. If this sounds the same as what you are finding let me know and I will respond with a detailed how to!
Thanks for response #Ray and #kwagenknight.I have take an old template from old site changed data connections to new site and republished the form again.Now it works.

CRM 2011 Ribbon bar Missing after applying update Rollup 14 in IE not the chrome or Firefox?

When reviewing issue further, I have found out below solution:
Log in to CRM as an administrator.
Go to Settings > Administration.
Click System Settings.
On the “Customizations” tab, uncheck Load pages in the most recent version of Internet Explorer.
Even this one is not working for me.
I am getting below error in page load event in IE not the chrome or Firefox
SCRIPT5: Access is denied.
PageLoader.js, line 1 character 1226
I am stuck with as my production release on Monday. Any help is highly appreciated.
After Long two days investigation I have found out the reason for the issue. We had previous rollup activity feed solution. After importing the new version of Activity feeds this hectic issue was sorted out.
Activity feed new solution is available with rollup up package.it can be found by exacting the rollup package. Previously this was available in Microsoft Dynamic market place.
Do you use any script that have fixed url?
Seems similar issue with:
Grey ribbon on Account form in IE "SCRIPT5: Access is denied." in PageLoader.js
And try IIS Reset might help clearing cached content.

Sharepoint Designer 2010 won't display lists of libraries

Not quite sure what I've done to screw up SPD2010 (was working), but it displayed
Sharepoint Designer cannot display the item
What you can try:
Click refresh ... blah
Most likely causes
The file has been deleted from the site
The site is encountering problems
I can't see anything related in event viewer. I think is web service related as I think the queries are made via a WS?
In my case it wasn’t a solution. So, I made a backup of the site collection before to try anything. After a lot of time and different problems I figured out that some lists were causing the missreading. I tried one more time to get the lists in SharePoint Designer 2010 just to cause some entries in the log. After that I opened the log file and looked for something like: “Failed to determine the setup path of the list schema for feature {GUID}, list template XXX.”. With the GUID I looked for a match here. http://sharepoint-geek.com/2010/10/08/sharepoint-2007-moss-features/
With the feature name I used this blog: http://aurramu.blogspot.com/2011/03/failed-determine-setup-path-of-list.html.
With the feature re-installed I went to SPD and it worked like a charm.
I hope it helps someone else.
It appears this was caused by a "phantom" list definition. I experienced a number of other problems (some in SP some in SPD), all generating variations of this error;
<nativehr>0x8107058a</nativehr><nativestack></nativestack>
The problem list definition was deployed and undeployed from VS2010, so I have no idea why it was still around! The Sharepoint UI wont allow you to remove it (errors as above), so the trick is to use the stsadm powershell command with forcedeletelist as detailed here

Hope this helps someone else !

can not add webpart to sharepoint page

i create a website on my local machine but i can't add webpart to web page, it don't rise any error but th webpart don't display to the page. anyone help me.
Thanks
I know this is an old question, but it's ranking high in Google results, so I figured I'd answer it anyway.
Make sure you're not running any code in the layout page's codebehind that calls and then closes SPContext.Current.Web. I had this exact behavior and that was the culprit
To test, add a different web part to a default page layout. If it adds, then it's either your web part or your code behind. If you can't add any web parts to your custom layout, it's your code behind. If it's just your web part, it's your web part.
Remember, SPContext.Current.Web returns a reference to the current SPWeb object. SharePoint will close the object itself when it's done, and closing it early can cause "unpredictable behavior."
We had the same problem with Firefox some time ago, but the problem disappeared when we installed SP2 for SharePoint 2007. The only thing that surprises me is that you also have the problem with IE.

SharePoint OOTB Workflow Problem

I'm getting this error message when trying to add an approval workflow.
There has been an error while loading
the form. A required resource could
not be downloaded. To try to resume
the download, refresh the page.
Any ideas why?
(Googling didn't find any solutions, was wondering what this community had in mind)
Do you get to the "_layouts/AddWrkfl.aspx" page? If yes, do you get to "_layouts/WrkSetng.aspx"?
If you are not able to get to AddWrkfl.aspx, I would start by disabling any custom workflows (features) and try again. The idea here is when SharePoint loads up the page it collects a list of Workflow Templates deployed to display it on page.
Let me know if you need any further help.
