In order to help you. You will need to provide more information. If you are using windows 7 client you can make the following registry edits to see if that is the cause.


“HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters\BasicAuthLevel” (REG_DWORD)
“HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Common\Internet\BasicAuthLevel” (REG_DWORD)
‍‍‍‍

You would put a value of "2" in each key and then see if it will work.

What this does is it tells the OS that you can use the sharepoint protocol in both ssl/nonssl communication. The other thing that you need to look at is your ssl certificate. If you aren't using one than that could be an issue. Myself and anyone else won't be able to further help you until you provide more information.

What method of authentication are you using in Alfresco?

alfrescoNtlm, ldap, ldap-ad, passthru, kerberos, or external?

I do use default alfrescoNtlm, as authentication based on user and password information stored in the Alfresco repository. I have not done any special steps in installation-configuration process.
Just install alfresco-***-64bit-bin in –mode text at Ubuntu 13.10

To my understanding…anyone else can jump in here to correct me if I'm wrong. I think that the sharepoint protocol also requires some form of authentication on the windows side. Basically credentials from Alfresco's database talks with your windows authentication to match.

We have Active Directory integrated into Alfresco and when users try and edit online they have to enter their username and password.

You might think about syncing active directory or kerberos with alfresco to see if that is the issue.
