I have a SharePoint 2007 portal, that contains several document libraries. Whenever I open a document from a document library, Word 2007 requests me for my credentials, although I'm already logged in the portal.
Does anybody know how to set up Word 2007 to accept the existing credentials from SharePoint 2007?
I've found this while googling for a solution:
1) In Internet Explorer 8, click Tools and the click Internet Options.
2) In the Internet Options window, switch to Security tab, click “Trusted sites” and click Sites.
3) Add the URL of this site and your domain name and close the Trusted sites window.
4) Go back to Internet Options, select “Trusted sites” and click “Custom Level”.
5) In the new-opened window, under “User Authentication - Logon”, please select “Automatic logon with current user name and password” and click OK to apply this setting.
6) Then click OK to apply all the settings and close Internet Explorer.
7) Try again to see if the prompt still appears.
And it works!
Hope it helps somebody.

I am working in SharePoint online and office 365. This is causing auto-save to save and change the modified date whenever a document is opened by someone with Edit privileges even if nothing is changed. I would like to set SharePoint to open documents in preview mode by default, then if the user wants to edit they can click to edit. Ideally, I would want to control this at the folder level but the site level would probably work.
You can try below option so that users will be forced to check out a document from a document library before they can make any edits. To enable automatic check out, go to Library Settings > Versioning Settings and switch Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? to Yes. Click OK
check out a document in SharePoint
Next time anyone tries to edit any document in the library – they will be forced to check out a document.
If you log into the admin centre and select sharepoint in the left hand pane. Then select "Classic Sharepoint Admin Centre"
Select settings in the left hand pane.
Then next to preview features, select Enable preview features
Any issues just let me know
I am trying to find the WebDAV address to my onedrive folder for a 3rd party application. Where should I look?
My url is something like this.
https://COMPANYNAME-my.sharepoint.com/personal/NAME_COMPANYNAME_com/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx .
As per the Moderator of Microsoft,
"Getting the WebDAV URL for your file needs your IT admin privilege. You are using a sharepoint account through your company, so we suggest that you contact your IT admin to access the WebDAV site."
I am the administrator, I am not able to find the page where I can access the WebDav Site.
Thank in Advance.

1) Powershell script
The most simple approach is to use OneDriveMapper.ps1 script, posted on TechNet.
Pay attention to the MANDATORY MANUAL CONFIGURATION section inside. If you're lucky, the only thing you would have to change is $O365CustomerName:
####MANDATORY MANUAL CONFIGURATION
<....>
$O365CustomerName = "ogd" # (example, ogd as in https://ogd-my.sharepoint.com or https://ogd.sharepoint.com)
<....>
It would automatically authenticate you and show the appropriate webdav url in log:
<...>
INFO | Retrieving Sharepoint cookie step 2 at https://ogd-my.sharepoint.com/_forms/default.aspx
INFO | username detected, your onedrive should be at \\ogd-my.sharepoint.com#SSL\DavWWWRoot\personal\username_ogd_com\Documents
<...>
You might have to run this script on each logon or so, so that it would authenticate you.
The admin privilege is not required to run the script.
2) Manually, via "Open with explorer"
User can manually access his personal folder with a few clicks.
Using Internet Explorer (it won't work in other browsers) go to OneDrive web page
Switch to classic view (use "Return to Classic One Drive" in the lower-left part of the page; it might be hidden in the Hamburger menu, if you screen is too narrow)
Enable Ribbon (Settings -> Ribbon)
On "LIBRARY" Ribbon tab, click "Open with explorer"

In SharePoint 2013 (using IE8) I created a search which returned multiple pages.
I clicked each page and displayed the results.
When got to the end, used Browser Back Button to return to my site collection portal.
Then I received a warning message: "Out of memory at line 1".
If anyone can help that'd be great.

When trying to open excel TFS reports from within Visual Studio we keep getting prompted by excel for security credentials. It says it is trying to connect to
'http://myserver.mydomain.com'.
When I open the project portal using the above domain name in a browser and then try to open the report I get the prompt.
When I use just the server name, in other words,
'http://myserver'
to access the report, the security prompt goes away.
How do I configure TFS (or Visual Studio or whatever) so that when opening excel TFS reports it uses just the server name?
I have definitely run into this one before. It's a safety feature for Excel paired with SharePoint Document Libraries.
Essentially, here are the steps to "trust" the site:
Open Excel
Open Excel Options from the Backstage View
Head to Trust Center on right side at the very bottom.
Click "Trust Center Settings"
Click Trusted Locations
There are several things you want to do here next. If you want to trust network locations then click that option to enable it.
If you want to add a new trusted location then click "Add new location..."
Type in the full URL for the new location and then choose the box for "Subfolders of this location are also trusted."
That should do it!
BTW - from my un, you can have your IT department send these settings to all computers on your Active Directory domain through global policies so others don't have to go through these steps. They can also add this site to the Intranet Sites group in Internet Explorer for everyone internally which should help out in other similar scenarios.
