i am new to SSAS . we can connect tabular model in SSAS to powerview .
Can we connect Multidimensional Cube(Datatools) also to Powerview without sharepoint
Thanks
Not yet. Currently you need to host your PowerView in SharePoint in order to be able to connect to a multidimensional cube.
However, when Excel 2016 is released you will be able to connect PowerView in Excel to multidimensional cubes. See the PowerView over an OLAP Connection section in this article: https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/Whats-new-in-Office-2016-Preview-4841f061-d019-45cc-af74-3e89c8cff1c4

I am trying to make a SSAS cube, but I have a connection error.
The SQL browser service if activated
If I am understanding it right then you are trying to connect your SSAS tabular cube to SQL Browser in order to query data. In this case -
You can use "Dax Studio" to connect to SSAS tabular cube. Below is the download link:

I am not sure if it is possible to connect SSAS tabular cube to SQL Browser. I usually connect it to DAX Studio, Power BI, SSMS and excel analyze and visualize cube data.
How to create an SSAS server in Multidimensional mode?
I have created an SSAS server using Azure. But it was created in tabular mode. I can't change the mode.
I need a SSAS server in multidimensional mode.
Please help me out.
You provisioned Azure Analysis Services (the one where you connect via asazure://...) but Multidimensional isn't currently supported. Please vote for it.
For other peoples' use in the future... if you created a VM and accidentally installed SSAS In Tabular mode then you can edit msmdsrv.ini and set DeploymentMode to 0 and restart the SSAS Service (kind of the opposite of what Cathy Dumas did here). That will switch the instance to Multidimensional mode.
I have SSAS cube and I want to create report in Power View using connection to my Tabular cube. And I get error, can not connect.
is it possible to create powerview from SSAS Tabular ? or is there another way ?
Thanks
I'm assuming Excel 2013 and the Power View add-in already enabled. Please follow the instructions here but on step 13 choose Power View instead of PivotTable.
Apparently this feature was available in previous versions but has now been removed.
What are some alternatives?
Browse the cube using excel or powerpivot. There you can manipulate it a bit better.
I'm trying to create an analysis service cube.
The source data for the dimensions etc is coming from tables on a Sql Server 2000 box.
I want to create the cube though on a sql server 2008r2 box.
How do i do this? BIDS seems to want to put the cube in the same place as the data feed? Does that source data have to be on the same server as the cube?
The source data can be located anywhere. The connection string in your data source defines where the data is read from. Set the deployment server in your project properties to tell BIDS where to deploy the cube to.
