As part of the release of Office 2016 15.33.0, and some have changed from what they were before. An example of one that has changed is the DefaultsToLocalOpenSave management setting, which sets the Open and Save options in Office 2016 apps to default to On My Mac instead of Online Locations. As part of releasing Microsoft Office 2016 15.27, Microsoft has also updated (MAU) to include an interesting new feature: Automatically Download and Install. In MAU 3.8 and later, this feature will automatically download updates for Office 2016 applications and do the following:.
If an Office application is not running – Automatically install and update the application. If an Office application is running – Prompt the customer and give them the option of updating later or restarting the application.
If the customer chooses to restart their application, the application will be closed, updated and then re-opened To enable the automated download and install option, open the Microsoft AutoUpdate application and set the Automatically Download and Install option. As part of rolling out Office 2016 for my shop, I noticed that Office 2011’s application was no longer included with Office. A number of folks in my shop had been using this application to access documents on our Sharepoint servers, so its absence meant I needed to learn how to access Sharepoint sites using Office 2016.
After some research and discussion with colleagues, I was able to figure out how to connect to Sharepoint from within Office 2016 applications. For more details, see below the jump. In many shops, Mac admins have a requirement to deploy templates for Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint. With Microsoft Office 2011, this is a relatively straightforward process as there is an at the location shown below: /Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office/Media/Templates Template files deployed to this location are available to all users on the Mac. In contrast, the necessary support directories for templates are not created by Office 2016 by default, so they are not likely to exist unless templates had previously been installed.
The reason for this is that. Fortunately, the Office team at Microsoft has documented in the PDF document linked below where templates should be installed: Installing User Content in Office 2016 for Mac: When I read the documentation, it showed that the correct place to store template files is at the location shown below: /Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office365/User Content.localized/Templates.localized Template files deployed to that location are available to all users on the Mac. As mentioned previously, the necessary support directories for templates are not created automatically when Office 2016 is installed. To address this, I’ve written a script that will create the needed directory structure. For more information, see below the jump. Microsoft Office 2016’s applications are sandboxed, which means that. Thomson Reuters’ software is affected by this because it uses a plug-in for Word 2016.
This means that the first time you launch Word 2016 after installing Endnote’s plug-in, you will see a dialog box along with this message: EndNote needs access to the file named ‘com.ThomsonResearchSoft.EndNote.plist’. Select this file to grant access. If you’re seeing this dialog box, the com.ThomsonResearchSoft.EndNote.plist file should be already selected. If the file has been selected, please click the Grant Access button.
This procedure should only need to be performed once. However, if you’re seeing this dialog box and the com.ThomsonResearchSoft.EndNote.plist file has not been automatically selected, that means that Endnote has been installed on this Mac but never launched. For more details, see below the jump.
