I am trying to setup SharePoint 2013 and I'm feeling somewhat lost. I'll admit I'm a beginner to this. I have 2 VMs in Hyper-V both running Server 2012. One has SQL 2012 installed and running, the other has SharePoint 2013.
After sever installs/uninstalls/reinstalls of SP, I think it's now finally installed and initally configured correctly. I can get to the SharePoint site from another computer. But when I click the "Upload a Document" link on the home page, nothing happens. In fact, there are many links that don't work. The Lists, Documents, and Site Contents links work, but I can't figure out how to upload any documents.
One question I have is do I have to create a site collection in order to use this or can I just use the initial site I set up in the SharePoint - 80 web application?
On the home page, when I click Lists (on the left) and then click Add an App, I get to the Site Contents > Your Apps page. But it's blank and I can't figure out how to populate it.
I realize I'm pretty ignorant about it, but so far I've managed to find the help I've needed in installing and doing the initial setup. But now I'm at a loss as to what to do.
If there is a good, basic online tutorial for what I need, I'd appreciate a link to it or else just some answers to my above questions.
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan
