Hi,
I find that after a microsoft or internet explorer update, I can log into Sharepoint but can't change the calendar - I can't add or edit in the calendar.
I have to restore my computer to an earlier date to make the calendar work. Any ideas on how to fix this so I don't have to keep resoring my computer every day?
I'm desperate!
Thanks!
This is a huge issue for us. We are moving to a claims-based web application using SiteMinder for the trusted identity provider. When a user (user1) logs in for the first time they receive SiteMinder identity cookies and then they receive the SharePoint identity cookie (fedauth). All is well until another user (user2) logs in using the same browser session. This new user is issued new SiteMinder cookies but the SharePoint fedauth cookie remains and allows user2 to become user1. All cookies are session cookies so this is primarily concerning in a kiosk type scenario.
Any insights?
Morning all,
Thanks in advance for your time. I'm trying to find a set of requirements for Office Products connecting to SharePoint 2010. Has anyone ever stumbled across, created or compiled a set of required services and registry settings for the Client to successfully use Microsoft Word, Excel, etc with SharePoint 2010?
And yes, this is a SharePoint 2010 Administration question, cause the directions have to come from us, and go to the local site administrators. 'Do this, and SharePoint works for you'.
Thank you again!

My CA and Management shell are loading for over 30 secs. I have found a post about adding iis_wpg group to local security groups, but this just does not help, everything stays unchanged. Sharepoint is in the forest that has multiple two-way trusts to some other forests.
Has anyone encountered something similar? Thanks in advance.Hi,
Not sure if possible but I've got a sharepoint site which I access externally, all working fine. Login asks for login and password, then in shared documents I can open PDFs fine, but any other office docs i.e. word or excel asks again for login/password. Any way of disabling this or not?!
Thx
I have SharePoint 2010 installed on a Windows 2008R2 machine using claims-based authentication. Most of my clients are Windows 7 machines, but we still have a few stragglers using Windows XP. The SharePoint farm is setup with mixed-mode authentication, AD (Kerberos) and FBA.
When I have it setup like this, all Windows XP users have difficulty with things like Word/Excel and (more specifically) with 'Open with Explorer'. When they click on that, they get repeated login windows (despite entering the correct password). If they cancel the login window, they get Web Folders (FPRPC, not WebDAV). If I change nothing else except remove FBA (so now it's Claims with AD only), the users can access Explorer View (WebDAV) correctly and all other login-prompt issues go away
Windows 7 users don't have any problems with either method. Is this setup supported?
Hello
I have a document which seems to be normal but it is actually checked out by a user and the user claims that the document is no longer checked out by him and he is able to edit and save it. But other users get a message that the document is checked out by the first user. As a site coll admin I don't see a discard check out option either. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Hi
i want to remove the ManageSubWebs base permission from a Permission Level across all Site Collections within a web application. I figure Powershell is my best bet here, however although ive been able to figure out how to add base permissions to a permission level:
$spSite = Get-SPSite "http://mydomain/sites/test2"
$spWeb = $spSite.RootWeb
$PermissionLevel = "MyCustomOwnerPermissionLevel"
$BasePermission = "ViewUsageData"
$roleDef = $spWeb.RoleDefinitions[$PermissionLevel]
$bps = $roleDef.BasePermissions
$roleDef.BasePermissions = "$bps", "$BasePermission"
$roleDef.Update()
$spWeb.Dispose()
$spSite.Dispose()
This adds the View Usage Data base permission to the MyCustomOwnerPermissionLevel permission level.
Now i need to figure out how to remove the ManageSubWebs base permission, and if you're feeling clever enough, doing so for every site collection within a web app. Any ideas?

Hi
Is there any guide to migrating content hosted on ebs back to the database foundation sharepoint 2010?
Thanks
I'm in the process of clearing out all content older than three years from a very large Document Library, but was asked to preserve all URLs that might be in that range. I'd like to find them all and do a quick Edit Properties to bump up the last modified date in as efficient a way as possible.
I'm trying to figure out how to use either the Sharepoint UI's search, Explorer View, or Designer to compile a list of them for easy access.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
First please let me clarify that I am not an experienced SharePoint Administrator. I have only been working with SharePoint for six months now. I am an experienced web developer having worked with classic ASP and ASP.net for well over fifteen years now. I was placed in the role of SharePoint Administrator overseeing three SharePoint farms. Two running SharePoint 2010 and one (soon to be upgraded) SharePoint 2007 farm
I need to clone an entire web application, content and all, within the same SharePoint 2010 farm. Basically I have a site being used by one group that another group has seen and want's a copy of for their own use. They like the layout and all of the functionality. We have decided to make an exact duplicate, then change out a few images. get rid of whatever documents and user contributed things that shouldn't be there and then open it up to the new group. Seems simple enough and I find it hard to believe that this doesn't happen on a somewhat regular basis. I have spent a lot of time searching the web for a good approach to doing this but have so far come up empty. Frankly I find it had to believe that there is no "Copy Web Application" functionality in Central Admin or SharePoint Designer (perhaps there is and I have yet to find it). I have come across all sorts of ways to backup and restore on different servers and farms and using export and import to a different farm but nothing specific to making a copy of a site/web application within a farm.
Any and all ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Doug

I am working on a deployment project where the customer is under the DOD STIGS for SharePoint and SQL server. We have run into one issue after another with this due to the lockdown in SQL server. The root of all our issues appear to be due to the PUBLIC role in SQL having all permissions removed from it. In order to get the SharePoint databases to even create the Farm and Setup accounts had to be granted sysadmin access in SQL.
I am now finding that even though It granted me rights to get the databases created, all the service applications in the farm are failing to function. There are a number of errors in the event logs around failing to start services such as bdc, managed meta data, etc. I think this is due to the fact that the service account used for these service apps does not have any rights assigned to it through the public role.
If anyone has any experience with this type of configuration any help to point me in a direction of how we might work around this is greatly appreciated. I have never worked in an environment where you could not grant the required access to the SharePoint service accounts.
Hi, there are some problem with our UAT environment. So have backed up live and UAT and attempted to do a restore from within Central Admin. It is saying cannot restore because already exists. What do you have to do before restoring? Do you have to empty the contents of the database? Does this means keeps the tables and emptying them or droping them completely? Am using the new configuration option by the way,
Thanks.
While attaching a large document ( 65MB) to SharePoint 2010 List gives an error message correlation ID

I’ve found that if you only modify web.config files as specified

Please let me know any impact if I change the above settings and real resolution for this issue

Hello,
Can someone assist me with this. I have seen a few posts on this but i haven't found anything yet that addresses what i am experiencing. I have added an entry for my SHarePoint farm. The farm has two WFE and one APP server. The DNS entry points to the two WFE servers. When i enter the the dns name I specified, http://SharePOintUAT, it just prompts me for a login, but it will not accept my login. I only get a blank page.
A couple of other users have tried it, the page comes up, but the URL is http://WFEServer . I want it to be http://SharePointUAT .
I have added the entries of http://SharePointUAT and thehttp://WFEServer to the alternate access mapping.
Any idea what else i need to modify to get this working. Does my network team need to add something so that when a user entershttp://SHarePointUAT
I don't have access to the DNS settings. I'm not sure what to ask him to check for.
Thanks for any help.

Hi all,
All of the sudden when trying to access Central Admin on my SP 2010 server, the page errors out and I get this:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.Administration, Version=14.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
This server has been fairly static and no other updates or upgrades have been installed recently (last Windows updates on 6/12 and I was able to access Central Admin last week).
Thanks!
Out of the blue, Site Collection Administrators are not able to make changes within the "Advanced Settings" of a document library. They are able to open the page and change the settings, but when they click OK, they get an "Access Denied". They can change any other settings in any other area of the library settings...just not the Advanced Settings. Only a Farm Admin is able to make the change. We are on the December 2012 CU, but that was installed several weeks ago. This just started on all the sites within the past week. No other changes were made to the farms or the servers. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
