Can't see Lists and Libraries in SharePoint Designer 2010

Hello,
I'm moving Site Collections from one domain to another domain. I set up Development Farm and Production Farm in new domain.  I moved all site collections to Development Environment without any problem. However, I'm having a problem with one site collection
in Production. When I restored site collection in Production, I cannot see Lists and Libraries in SP Designer.  On the other hand, when I restore same site collection in Development, I see Lists and Libraries in SP Designer.
I have five servers in Production; 2wfe, 2app, and 1db.
I have three servers in Development; 1wfe, 1app, and 1db.
What could be the issue? It's frustrating!
Thanks
Orrin

Hi,
have you checked the Log for any error, there could be broken links and may be SPD is throwing some error which would be easier to isolate the issue.

  • List and libraries in sharepoint 2010 content database

    I want to know when I create List or form library . where every form of form library will go.
    Will it save into content database ?
    I want to make report from the content database for form library or list ?

    All Content in SharePoint is stored in the content database and there are APIs that you can use to access the contents of a particular list or library in SharePoint.  But if you are thinking that you can access a specific list as a single table or portion
    of a database table in the content database for your report then you will be disappointed for two reasons.
    First, direct access to the SQL databases in SharePoint is prohibited by your license agreement.  It is too easy to break things in SharePoint when you start accessing the databases directly.
    Second, individual entries in a list or library are not stored directly in one place.

  • I was able to print my month view from ical, but no longer is "month" an option. I can only see list and day. Please advise!

    Just curious...about two weeks ago I was able to print my ical calendar in month view. For some reason, "month view" is no longer an option in print mode. The only two options I have are day or list. Not sure how to print in month view now or retreive that back. Please advise : )

    Be sure Safari does not have the Block Pop-Up Windows preference set.
    Where I work now there are several unencrypted VLANs that require authentication, and Safari promptly pops up a window for me to register every time.

  • Sharepoint Forms and Custom Lists and Workflows using Sharepoint Designer

     I created a Custom SharePoint List with a custom work flow. Basically the list does the following:
    Group A initiates the list, fills in all the information
    Group A will check a box based on a Y/N question, the driver of the work flow is if the Y/N question is answered with an Y, then Group B will get a task assigned and an email notification will go to Group B to continue the work flow.
    Group B will fill out information and check Y/N question, if answer is returned Y it will go to Group C via the same method as above.
    What I need is as the form goes from one group to the next how can I make sure that Group C doesn't see the responses from Group B? How do I write this into the workflow?

    I think now I can add screen shots to explain what I need to do better.
    I created a custom sharepoint list. Users click on Add new Item and Group A will answer generic questions until they get to Continue to Dispute to IQ (Yes/no) Checkbox.  If they answer Yes, the workflow will start and create a task for Group B
    (IQ Group). Group B will answer 4 questions (IQ Responses, IQ Notes, IQ Name and Date). Group B will check Yes or No to Continue Dispute to QA (Group C).
    See Screen shot.
    What we would like for the workflow to do is based on the Yes or No check boxes (Continue to IQ or QA). If Yes is checked then the workflow will generate a task in the task list. We don't want Group B and C to see each other's responses. I set up a workflow
    using impersonate steps, but am not sure if this is correct. Can you look at the workflow steps below and let me know if this is right?

  • User message entered in Validation settings does not show up in custom list form created in sharepoint designer 2010

    I have a custom list form created in SPD based on EditItem form.  I then set field validation in Validation setting and entered a user message to display when the validation did not pass.
    The validation works in the custom form but the user message never show up.
    I see a similar question posted in 2012:  
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cd292b50-856f-4dfa-8cfe-aeb688ee7185/validating-fields-on-a-sharepoint-2010-custom-list-form?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious 
    Is this still a known bug?   What is the easiest workaround?

    Hi ,
    From the
    above link you mentioned, have you tried using the code line in your custom form?
    Please try the code suggested by sp-achiever and hamish, and see if it could help solve the issue.
    <SharePoint:ItemValidationFailedMessage ControlMode="New" runat="server" ID="checkform" />
    Have you installed hotfix KB245789 or CU contained this kb?
    Please check if KB245789 has fixed this issue as KP2011 suggested in the same post, and please try it in a test environment firstly.

  • How to develop custom add-in for sharepoint designer 2010

    Hi ,
    Can anybody suggest me how to create a custom add-in for sharepoint designer 2010?
    Are there any templates through which i can create a managed add-in using C#? or developing COM add-in (VB6) is the only solution?
    Please suggest.
    Regards
    Sujasree

    Hi,  Sujasree
           Based on my knowledge, there have not been public samples and walkthroughs for SharePoint Designer 2010 add-in.
           MSDN provides some sample for Word and Excel: 
    Office Development Samples and Walkthroughs:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z63ctsh2.aspx
           Additionally, VS 2010 have not provide such templates yet.
           So would you please share your business requirement with us?
           SPD is a just client to manage and customize SharePoint site, its powerful but difficult to do extension.
           You could also consider builting your custom add-in elsewhere, e.g.: in a customized admin page or webpart, which is easy to achieve.
           Hope this can help!
    Best Regards,
    Aaron

    Thanks in advance!

    If editing the masterpage isn't an option, active publishing features (if not a publishing template) and add that script to the Styles gallery with the !important parameter added on the end. It'll be applied locally to the whole site.

  • Please Help!! Lists and libraries suddenly blocked just before migrating from SharePoint 2007 to 2010

    Hi all,
    I took several weeks preparing the migration of a large farm from SharePoint 2007 to 2010 using the system of restore databases and mount site collections. I've built the new farm and I have done several full migration tests to verify that all was well the
    day of final migration.
    The farm consists of three virtual servers: one with SQL Server 2012 and two with SharePoint Server 2010. Upon completion of the tests we've moved the servers to another network. We have turned on the servers and everything seems to work fine.
    Just the day of the final migration I wanted to check the HealtReports list of the Central Administration, and when I wanted to look up an alert, the view window has not shown me anything and ribbon has appeared with all options grayed. Days ago worked fine.
    Alarmed by this, I have started to check all lists and libraries in the Central Administration and the same happens. I can not view or change the items, nor add. Neither I can change the properties of the lists or libraries, as if everything was locked. I
    tried on the main site collection and same thing happens, and I have tried with several user with Total Control permissions. I have also verified that the site collection was not in ReadOnly mode.
    I have restored a site collection from SharePoint 2007 and have migrated successfully to 2010. Before applying visual upgrade I found that the content is also locked. It is as if he had changed anything in the configuration of the whole farm, but I can not
    find what. The Event Viewer of the three server shows no errors related to this. The SharePoint LOGS not show anything unusual.
    I do not know where to look and urges me to find a solution because the old servers must be out of service soon. I accept any suggestions.
    Kind regards.

    Finally I answer myself because I've already found and fixed the problem. Before moving the servers in farm to the another network I've unplugged the single SharePoint server from the farm database for to clone it. Apparently
    this disconnection removes all the implemented solutions and the farm remains without servers. Reconnecting the servers not re-implements the solutions. When I was about to create a new farm I have seen that all solutions were not implemented,
    I have implemented one by one and the system worked again.
    If any of you happen reaches you, now you know what it may be due.
    Kind regards!! Now I'm a happy man! ;)

    Hi,
    According to your description, there is a list appears in “All Files” section but not in "Lists and Libraries" section in SharePoint Designer.
    What if you refresh(F5) the SharePoint Designer in the "Lists and Libraries" section? Will the issue list appears?
    If the list still doesn’t show up, please clear the cache of the SharePoint Designer and reconnect your site for a test.

  • Content search web part to display only lists and libraries

    Hi,
    I want to configure Content Search Web Part to display only the names of lists and libraries inside my site collection. I tried adding Keyword filter "Only return lists and libraries", however it is also returning list items. Any idea on this issue?

    Hi John,
    Thanks.
    Agree with your point. I can't use any code (that is client requirement). Also, still I use, I can't use it in this scenario. I want to display most visited lists and libraries (in last month or lifetime). I can use managed properties such as ViewsLifeTime
    and ViewsRecent to sort it If i get the names of lists and libraries. Let me know if this clarifies the question more and you have an idea about it.
