I have a team site. I edit the page to add a web part. There is not a "Site Feed" web part, even though the Site Feed Web part appears on the default team site page. The Following and Site Feed features are both activated for the site. Several web searches mention this web part, but again, I do not see it.

A new top level site was created successfully but won't launch. What can be the cause for this?
A site collection was created with the URL intranet.contoso and it was added to the DNS as intranet.contoso. The top-level site was created successfully after that with the URL beinghttp://intranet.contoso/main but it is not launching and the following is the error message -This page can't be displayed.
This will be a production environment so disabling the security loopback will not be an option. Any suggestions?
Many Thanks,

SP Document library workflow on itemCreated : The file has been modified
Hello,
I want to change some values on item created, using spd 2013 workflow, on item created. the workflow pauses for 5 minutes and changes the fields. But withing the 5 minutes interval, if the user selects <OK>, it gets an error: The file /documentlibary/filename has been modified by the ....
By pausing, i think that the workflow gives the user the time to fill all the fields and then it updates the values, but obviously I'm wrong.
So, what should be the best approach? I can't use onitemupdated.

PowerPivot Management Dashboard: Workbooks do not update in Excel Services
[Running SP 2013 Enterprise SP1 w/ SQL Server 2012 SP1]
I having a couple problems with the PowerPivot Management Dashboard. (Well, maybe more than a couple but I am focusing on these right now.) If I try to "Query and Refresh Data" in the "Infrastructure - Server Health" web part (Server Health workbook) on the Mgt Dashbd, I get the error "External Data Refresh Failed / We were unable to refresh one or more data connections with this workbook. The following connections failed to refresh: / Data".
The "Workbook Activity - Chart" web part behaves a "bit better" - it does not give an error, just an empty graph.
If I open either the Server Health or Workbook ActivityExcel workbooks in the Reports web part (in the browser in Excel Services) and attempt to do a "Refresh All Data" there, I get the same error as above. If I download the Excel workbook to my local PC and open it in Excel, I am able to do a data refresh there without any errors. Here is the Data Connection String from "Server Health.xlsx" on my PC:
Provider=MSOLAP;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=True;Initial Catalog=ITOPs Sandbox c896b5f7-46fa-482e-abbf-33ab3fc00fe1;Data Source=http://spserver:5555/PowerPivot Management/deca4531-0c4a-48f9-b982-c8dbcabd4d38/PowerPivot Management Data.xlsx;MDX Compatibility=1;Safety Options=2;MDX Missing Member Mode=Error
Now, to add another bit of information (which I suspect has something to do with the problem): my whole PowerPivot installation did not get installed in the "optimum" order. I did not realize I had to install Analysis Services in SharePoint for PowerPivot mode - I had only installed the default AS Data Mining mode. After installing the wrong version of AS on the SQL server, I installed and ran the "PowerPivot for SharePoint 2013 Configuration Tool" on the SP server and that seemed to go"ok" (other than the fact that I couldn't do data refreshes. :^).
So when I discovered this error, I went back and installed AS in SP for PP mode on the SQL server (using a SQL Server 2012with SP1 DVD) and after fixing my Data Model server in the Excel Services Application, things have gotten closer to "normal." But of course my Dashboard still isn't functioning correctly. Thanks for any input here.

What is the definition of "unused site"?
Dear all,
I am interested to setup "Confirm site use and deletion" following this article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262420(v=office.15).aspx
However I do not find the definition of "unused site". Is it defined by last modified date of any file within the site collection, or the last visit date of site collection?
In the same article it said "If the site collection owner confirms that the site collection is active by clicking the confirmation link in the email notification, thecertification date of the site collection is renewed." So there is an attribute "certification date" for each site collection? Where can I find it?
Thanks for any input.

Tasks List not sending email to AD Groups
Hello,
I have several Tasks list on my farm and all behave the same way.
If I assign a task to an individual person, he will receive email notification.
However, if I assign it to an Active Directory group, no email notification is sent. The AD group does have an email address associated. Using outlook it can receive email.
The email notifications for the task list is enabled. If I check the SharePoint logs, I don't see that SharePoint is trying to send mail to the group's email. If I assign the task to a single person, he receives the mail and I can see in the logs that the email has been sent.
I have no idea where to continue the troubleshooting.

How "Sites" under my site works? /my/social/sites.aspx
Dear all,
I am talking about this page:
s(picture from http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/154/t/159075.aspx)
In my test environment, after I created a community portal for a while, every users' "Sites" page show up a blue box link to the community portal.
1. I would like to know how it work.
2. I have changed the AAM for the application hosting the portal. Hence the blue box link no longer work. I need to know how to change it.
3. The "Suggested sites to follow" is always empty for every user even though I have created many sites since a month ago. May I know how it works?
Thanks a lot for input!
I have difficulty to find related resource because this page is called "Sites" ... also it is hosted under "My Site" which make every search engine crazy.

Setting up Sharepoint 2013 for apps
I may have screwed up the appropriate permissions for the service accounts/application pools necessary to get store apps to work. At this point I think I need to start over, but the rest of our Sharepoint install is working. Can I safely remove the App Management Service Application and Proxy plus the Subscription Settings Service Application and Proxy?
Our Sharepoint 2013 installation is pretty basic - just the Sharepoint application server and a 2012 database server.

Unable to open in explorer after setting alternate mapping
Hi all,
I'm using a SharePoint 2013 instance in Azure for developing purposes.
I was using links to the style libraries to edit css, js like \\winsrv2012\wwwdavroot\style library\css\myscc.css, it was working fine. I had to configure alternate mapping to be able to access SP from the web and since that change, I can't access the files with the windows explorer anymore.
I'm going to the style library with the SharePoint "Site content" menu and then click on "Open in explorer" button, I get a credential prompt, and even with the right credentials, it's not going through.
I can however edit the files with SharePoint Designer but it not my editor of choice.
If I reverse my settings, deleting the alternate mappings, it's working again, so I know it's not a problem with the web client or wrong credentials.
Anyone have a clue?
Thanks

The Managed Metadata Service or Connection is currently not available. The Application Pool or Managed Metadata Web Service may not have been started. Please Contact your Administrator
Hi
I have build a couple of test farms with almost the same SPAutoInstaller script and in both cases the managed Metadata service app worked perfectly .. In one of the servers, I have suddenly started getting. this error which I have never seen in any SharePoint 2013 farm I have built ...
Now this is a bit strange
- Both Manage Metadata service app and the corresponding web service are started.
- The permissions for the app pool account are correct as in all 3 check boxes checked
- the anonymous authentication in IIS is set to IUSR
- No 'obvious errors' in ULS except: The SharePoint Health Analyzer detected an error. Drives are running out of free space. Available drive space is less than twice the value of physical memory. This is dangerous because it does not provide enough room for a full memory dump with continued operation. It also could cause problems with
Failed to get term store for proxy 'Managed Metadata Service'. Exception: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.XmlDataReader.GetDateTime(String name) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.SharedTermStore.Initialize(IDataReader dataReader, Guid termStoreIdValue, Boolean fromPersistedData) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.SharedTermStore..ctor(IDataReader dataReader, Guid termStoreId, Boolean fromPersistedData) at Microsoft.SharePoint.Taxonomy.Internal.DataAccessManager.GetTermStoreData(MetadataWebServiceApplicationProxy sharedServiceProxy, Boolean& partitionCreated)
