5. Take
action based on problem using the table belowAction Based on Problems Using the Table Below
Possible Problem | Description and Action |
User Error | If the admin is unable to replicate the issue using his or her login, log in as the affected user. Ensure the admin and the user are following exactly the same steps and using the same browser, same computer type – both PC or both Mac, and same computer operating system – both Windows 7, 8, or Vista, for example – to produce the issue. If the issue can’t be replicated using either login, this is a strong indication that it may be user error. Review with the user the correct procedure for completing the ShareVision task. |
IE 10/11 Compatibility | Verify the affected user’s IE version by going to the IE menu>Help>About Internet Explorer. If IE 10/11 is verified, and you’re certain the issue occurs only in IE10/11, and not in IE 9, this is a strong indication the issue is caused by working in non-Compatibility View. Enable Compatibility View on the affected user’s browser. Problem not fixed? Try replicating the issue on another computer using the IE10/11 browser with Compatibility View enabled and the affected user’s login. If this fixes the issue, replicate settings of the working computer on the non-working computer. If the issue persists, the problem may not be related to IE 10/11 compatibility. |
Non-IE Browser | Does your issue occur only in Chrome, Firefox, or Safari, or IE 64-bit? Some minor functionality is not supported in browsers other than 32-bit IE. Replicate issue using IE 32-bit. If IE 10 is used for replication, ensure Compatibility View is enabled. Contact ShareVision Support to request a copy of ShareVision Browser Compatibility and Limitations. |
Permission Settings | If the issue affects all or only some staff, but no admins, there is a strong possibility that permission settings for affected users need adjusting.
|
Site Collection Admin Settings | If one or more admins, but not all admins, are unable to access some content, there is a strong possibility that the affected admins have not been added to the Site Collection Administrator security group. Check by going to Site Settings > Users and Permissions > Site Collection Administrators. Add admins as required. Note: Adding users to the Site Collection Administrator group gives them full access to your site and full control over all site settings. |
ShareVision Bug | If the issue affects all users, both admins and staff, this is a strong indication that the issue is caused by a ShareVision bug. Contact ShareVision Support for assistance. |
Datasheet Mode Not Working | Unfortunately, Office 2013 does not ship natively with the tools required to use Datasheet mode in ShareVision. However, they can be downloaded from Microsoft here. |
