I recently installed ArcGIS 10.2. With this version, I have been unable to Geocode addresses from an excel worksheet. I don't think it's a file size issue since I've tried to Geocode with only 3 rows and get the same error. I didn't have this issue in the previous version and I'm using the same data. I've tried multiple solutions provided in the ESRI forums, such as 1) moving my data to a local drive rather than network drive; 2) trying a Microsoft update hotfix (http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/41119); 3) changing the output location (http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/82696-Setting-out-points-on-a-map). I also tried repairing my ArcGIS 10.2 install. Unfortunately, none of these solutions have worked in resolving the issue. Since ArcGIS 10.2 uses World Geocode Service, I was thinking of doing what Kevin did and try 10.0 North America Geocode Service and 10.0 US Streets Geocode Service.
