How do I get my workspaces to show up in my Folders view in Windows Explorer?
How do I check for available updates or what version I am running?
To view workspaces in your Folders view:
Under the Beehive Extensions for Explorer folder, right-click on an account, and select Workspaces. Optionally, click the Beehive menu, and select Workspaces.
In the Manage Workspaces window, select Available Workspaces, to view a list of all workspaces to which you have access rights. If the workspace you want to add does not appear in the list, the owner has not added you as a member, viewer, or other type of participant. For more information, see the section “Modifying Team Workspaces” in the Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer Online Help.
Click in the Visible column next to the workspace, and click OK. The workspace is displayed in the list of workspaces in your Folders view.
Before you disconnect from the Oracle Beehive server to work offline, you need to download the documents you want to be able to access. Simply right-click a document or folder and select Download This Document/Download All Documents. The document(s) will be available whenever you are working offline. Click Cancel at any time during the download to stop and exit the offline availability operation. For more information, see the sections “Making Folders Available Offline” and "Making Documents Available Offline" in the Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer Online Help.
You will be notified when new software updates are available through your Windows system tray (lower right corner of your screen).
If you experience problems with your current version, you can do a manual check to make sure you are running the latest available version of Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer.
To manually check for Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer updates:
From the Beehive menu, select About Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer.
In the About Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer window, click Check for updates.
A star icon appears next to a workspace document whenever changes have been made locally, but not yet applied to the Oracle Beehive server. Updates to the server may take longer depending on the volume of data you added or changed, if you are offline (or in Work Offline mode), or if the server (or network connectivity) is temporarily unavailable.

For more information, see the section “Display/Select Workspaces in Your Folders View” in Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer Online Help.

This section includes the following known issues in the Oracle Beehive 2.0.1.7 patch release:
"Choose Profile" Pops Up Twice When "Send To" Items are Selected
MS Windows Server 2008: Error When Non-admin User Manually Checks For Updates
Bug 13345157. The Choose Profile dialog box appears twice when Send To items are selected in the context menu in Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer. This happens if you have selected the option Prompt for a profile to be used in your Oracle Beehive Outlook profile. To avoid this issue, choose the option Always use this profile instead.
Bug 14174731, 14174031. MS Win Server2008: normal (non-admin) user cannot connect to online support and issues using some Beehive components. This is generic to all web clients accessed from Internet Explorer 9 on Windows Server 2008 using the default Internet settings. To avoid this issue, add the Oracle Beehive host to the list of Trusted Sites. From the Tools menu, select Internet Options. Under the Security tab, select Trusted sites and click Sites. Add the Oracle Beehive server website as a trusted site.
Bug 14168618. MS Windows Server 2008: error when non-admin user manually checks for updates. A non-admin user is not allowed to install Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer, which is expected behavior. In this kind of non-admin user corporate setup environment, avoid using DMS-deployment. Instead, push new updates of Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer through some other means to the Windows 2008 server.
This section includes the issues that have been resolved in the 2.0 release and the 2.0.1.x patch releases.
The following issues have been resolved in the 2.0 release:
Limit of 1000 Messages When Moving Mail Folder Between Workspaces
"File Not Found" Error Results When Document is Opened and Closed Too Quickly
The following issues have been resolved in the 2.0.1.x patch releases:
Different Errors When Manipulate Beehive Link Created To File Under Upload
Workspace Permissions: Error Appears When Modify User Role In Specific Case
New Version Created Each Time User Opens Excel File Despite Data Unchanged
Bug 8857650. When a mail folder containing more than 1000 messages is moved from a folder in one workspace to a folder in another, only a maximum of 1000 messages are moved.
Bug 8226656. An error can occur if you open a document, close it, and then quickly re-open it. As a workaround, wait longer after closing a document before opening it again.
Bug 12552436. Different errors when manipulate Beehive link created to a file being uploaded.
Bug 10383257. Workspace permissions error appears when modify user role in specific case
Bug 8917177. An error may occur in which each time a Microsoft Excel document is opened, a new version is created. Additionally, the user opening the file appears in the Modified by field, even though no actual data has been changed in the document. This is inconsistent with the way WebDAV and Windows Explorer handles Microsoft Excel files.
Bug 9250778. If the path to an offline cache is changed, all files and folders stored in that offline cache location are deleted. This functionality is unexpected. Only Oracle Beehive Extensions for Explorer data files should be removed, without deleting any other files.
