Format Text tab is missing from Edit on Top Level Site home page

Hello,
Hoping for some help - not sure where to go with this.
I've been working on a SharePoint site for my company.
I need to change the top level site main page text layout to 3 columns.
I am pretty sure I was able to do this a few days ago but now when I edit the page the Format Text tab is not there.
I can get it on all my sub sites, just not the top level site.
I must have screwed this up somehow but I haven't a clue as to how to get it back.
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,
It sounds as though the site template for your root web is a team site or general collaboration site that is using content pages stored in the sitepages library. Is that correct? If you are using publishing features than you could set a custom layout in
the "pages" tab, but it sounds as though you do not have this feature.
A workaround could be to create a new page with 3 columns, copy your homepage content to this new page and finally set the new page as your homepage.

  • HT4623 The 'software update' tab is missing from the General menu. How do I get it reinstalled?

    Software Update tab is missing from General settings. How do I fix this.  I NEED TO LOAD NEW new a new iOS

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Why is that the switches tab is missing from device management  page of my Aruba Central account?

    Q: Why is that the switches tab is missing from device management page of my Aruba Central account?
    A: Aruba Central is a cloud-based platform that enables you to manage your Aruba Wi-Fi network. Designed as a software-as-a-service (SAAS) subscription, Central provides a standard web-based interface that allows you to configure and monitor Instant Access Points (IAPs) and Mobility Access Switches. 
    Switches tab is available only when the end-user's aruba central account have the license to manage the switches. If only IAP license is available, then switches tab do not appear in device management page of Aruba Central.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • SharePoint 2010 Content from top level site hidden from search results on subsite.

    Hi Everyone,
    The issue I am having is that when a group of people are in there site, we'll call it site B, and they hit the search function, they only get results from site B and subsites of site B, but nothing from the top level site, site A. does anyone know of anyway
    to get results from site A when searching in site B? This would really help me out a lot.
    Thanks!
    Best regards, Mike

    Hi Mike,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the content in top level site in search results page when doing search in subsites.
    By default, the search scope is set to This Site in all sites, so the search scope in subsites is limited to the subsites.
    I recommend to create a Search Center and then edit the Search settings in the top level site settings, please refer to the image below:
    Thanks,
    Victoria

  • How do I prevent an extension/plugin update tab to automatically and recurringly start up with my home page?

    I am using Firefox 4 in Windows 7 Professional. Every time, I start up Firefox 4, a tab of any recently updated extensions/plugins will automatically start up with my home page. I tried resetting my home page and uninstalling and reinstalling the extensions/plugins; but, to no avail. Each time this happens the only way I could resolve this problem was to remove the extension/plugins. I am afraid if this issue continues, I will have no extensions/plugins left in my browser; unless, you can help me find a better solution.

    It could be that you somehow have both pages set to be your home page or you got firefox set to remember your tabs from last time. Check your home page settings with the instructions in [[How to set the home page]].

    When I open a second tab in Firefox, it does not go to my home page. Instead it goes to a page that displays what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I have visited in the recent or distant past. I would much rather have it go to my home page which is much more useful to me. I have tried to change this in 'Options' but with no luck. Please fix this.

    == Some time back, beggining with Firefox updates, at least three, or more updates ago.

    Thanks for the tip. I took the following steps:
    1) Backed up the existing profile (presumably corrupted somewhere);
    2) Deleted the existing profile;
    3) Moved the existing Firefox to the Trash and downloaded a fresh copy;
    4) Started Firefox (thus allowing it to create its default profile)
    5) Copied the following files from the backup copy of the previous profile: places.sqlite, key3.db, signons.sqlite, permissions.sqlite, persdict.dat, cert8.db ---
    I'm posting this from a Firefox browser, so I guess I'm OK now.

  • Why is the panorama tab button missing from my tab bar

    Just downloaded Beta 4 and find the panorama button is missing from the tab bar. Your video showing how to manipulate tabs show the button on the right hand side of the tab bar, on my download it is missing why, also some of the other bars shown in your video are missing to, why??

    You can add it if you want, right-click on a toolbar and select Customize. You can then drag and drop the "Tab Groups" icon from the customize toolbar dialog onto the toolbars. You can use this method to add other icons to the toolbars.

  • Search Tab Goes Missing from the Left-hand Menu

    Hi, I am using Spotify version 3.1.0.1117 in my trusty Toshiba Thrive (AT100) that runs Android version 4.0.4. I think it has just updated to the latest Spotify version and I notice that after initialising, the Search tab would go missing from the left-hand menu after browsing my playlists and not come back. The tab lists would start from Browse, and so on. Anybody else having similar problem? Any help is kindly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    The triangle next to the main Playlists folder is pointing down.
    I set up a subfolder for a few streaming radio stations. The missing (and non-missing) playlists have not been put into a subfolder. They are all smart playlists (I don't know if that makes a difference).
    I have the latest Itunes. Should I try re-installing?

  • Shadow copies tab is missing from ReFS on Windows Server 2012

    We're currently designing a new infrastructure based around Windows Server 2012 so I'm currently investigating all the new technologies, including whether we should format the file server drive in ReFS format - and what problems we might encounter. I'm aware
    that it's not a good choice for SQL due to lack of sparse files but for a plain-vanilla file system, it might be a good thing to use.
    However, we currently use scheduled Shadow Copies to allow users to recover accidentally deleted/corrupt files during the day before the nightly backup kicks in. In my lab environment, I've just created two drives. One formatted as NFTS and the other formatted
    as ReFS.
    When I look at the properties of the NTFS drive, Shadow Copies tab is there:
    Including the F: drive - the ReFS drive.
    However, when I bring up the properties of the F: drive, the Shadow Copies tab is missing:
    So to configure shadow copies on ReFS drive, you have to select an NTFS drive and then select the ReFS volume.
    A little bizarre?
    Cheers, Rob.

    Hi Rob.
    What if you:
    start Computer Mangement.
    Open System Tools
    Right Click Shared Folders
    Select All Tasks -> Configure Shadow Copies
    Do you see/can configure both disk available there?
    Via cmd can you list the volumes that vss knows about using:
    vssadmin list volumes
