Issue: There was a problem retrieving data for this field. Updating values in the field is disabled temporarily. You can still update values in other fields.                                                                     
                              
                                                                                                                                                            Cause: Properties containing these fields are linked to the Managed Metadata Service Application. These particular properties require a healthy Managed Metadata Service Application\Service Connection as well as associated (service instance) to be started    (or)
 The Managed Metadata Service Connection is missing from the associated proxy group

      Solution: Please check the below steps.

1.    Ensure the Managed Metadata Web Service started in application management->service application->manage services on server.
                           
         
2.    Ensure the service application “managed meta data service” created and started in Application management->service application->manage service application.
       
                

3.    If the Managed meta data service application is working fine, then data in the field will get update.

This item could not be crawled because the repository did not respond within the specified time out period.

  This item could not be crawled because the repository did not respond within the specified time out period.


                                                                             
   Detailed issue: "This item could not be crawled because the repository did not respond within the specified timeout period. Try to crawl the repository at a later time, or increase the timeout value on the Proxy and Timeout page in search administration. You might also want to crawl this repository during off-peak usage times"

   Solution 1:  Increase the timeout value on the Proxy and Timeout page in            search administration. Follow the below steps

·        Go to central admin->Manage service Applications
·        Click on Search service application.
·        Go to farm search administration below central administration.
·        Click on Time out seconds and change.


                                                                                                        

                                                         

NOTE: Increasing time out value causes the performance issue. 




Solution 2 : similar cases caused by IE proxy settings also. You can try to edit the

Internet Options>Connections>LAN settings. Uncheck ‘Automatically detect settings’. And check the crawl again.
