How do you open the site definition in Sharepoint Designer?

Hi,
I am looking to open this to try to edit it. Where is it and how do you open it?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to edit the site definition in SharePoint Designer.
A site definition is a collection of files stored on the server used for all new sites and templates created in SharePoint.
They provide preconfigured lists, Web Parts, navigation bars, features, and so on for each site.
The role of the site definition becomes especially important the next time you perform server-wide maintenance, for example upgrading the server, applying a solution upgrade, or a branding exercise.
Not only is the site definition updated, but all the pages associated with it are updated, which keeps them consistent and easily manageable.
Microsoft SharePoint Designer 2010 is a Web and application design program used to design, build, and customize Web sites running on SharePoint Foundation 2010 and Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010. With SharePoint Designer 2010, you can create data-rich
Web pages, build powerful workflow-enabled solutions, and design the look and feel of your site.
The following articles about the SharePoint Designer and use the Designer to edit the master page, I think they are the good beginning for you.

  • How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer?

    How do you open the DVD tray on a K430 without using Windows Explorer? I can't find a button on or below the door.  Am I missing something?  Additionally, will the K430 boot from a DVD/CD if it finds one in the DVD tray instead of the hard disk?  Please help. Thanks. 
    Solved!

    hi penguin247,
    Regarding your questions:
    1. Can you try to press the eject symbol on the DVD bay and observe if the DVD tray comes out.

    2. By default, the HDD is set as the first boot device and the ODD second on the K430. You will need to change the boot order or continuously tap F12 during POST to boot from the ODD (assuming you have a bootable media inserted).

  • How do you open the trash can in iMovie 4.0?

    2-17-07
    How do you open the trash can in iMovie 4 to retrieve files?
    thanks,
    gil

    Gil:
    Read this from imovie Guru, Karl Petersen:
    "All may not be lost. A couple of things to keep in mind:
    A. Don't forget that iMovie uses non-destructive editing, so the source file of a clip is never shortened. (The source file for each clip is stored in the Media folder of the project. Each scene imported from the camera arrives with its own Media file. Source files can support one clip or many.)
    If you split Clip A into two clips, then discard one of the clips and empty the trash, the original Media file is NOT discarded. The Media file itself is discarded ONLY if you discard the last clip that uses that source file. (In the past, iMovie would remove a portion of the Media file, shortening the file. iMovie HD NEVER shortens a Media file.)
    So the lost video may still be there, just not be represented by a clip. To retrieve the video of a split clip, select the clip and choose Advanced > Restore Clip to Original. That returns it to its original length. (Or better still, Option-drag the clip to some other place on the timeline to make a copy of it, then Restore the copy.)
    Emptying the trash does two things: 1) discards the CLIPS we've trashed -- clips perhaps created by splitting Clip A, and 2) sometimes it discards the source files for those clips. But #2 occurs only when no other project clip references that Media file. So long as any clip in the project relies on a Media file the file is not discarded. That means any clip that uses that source file can be restored to the file's original length and content.
    So the stuff you lost may be gone. Or not.
    B. A backup copy of the project file exists inside the project package. It is a copy of the project file as it was BEFORE you last saved. If you've saved the project just once, it may help.
    I suggest making a copy of the project and working on the copy. To make a copy, select the project in the Finder and choose Edit > Copy "your file name goes here".
    To look inside the package, Control-click on the project icon and choose "Show Package Contents" from the popUp menu. You'll see several project files inside the package, one with a tilde (~) in its name. That's the backup. Double-click on it to open the project. The discarded clips may appear, or they may be gone. (This will NOT recover any Media files that have been discarded.)
    If the backup project looks usable, quit iMovie without saving, move the current project file outside the package, change the name of the backup project file to match the current project file, open the project and save.

  • When you open a new tab, how do you change the site it goes to?

    My Daughter downloaded accidently a tool bar, Searchqu.com. I have removed the tool bar and application, and reset the homepage. However when I open a new tab it defaults to http://www.searchqu.com/, how do I change this? I have tried resetting it to default and it does not help.

    Did you try opening '''about:config''' and filtering on the url (or part of it) to see if there is a configuration variable involved.
    How did you remove the toolbar and application, did you have to go into the control panel or did an extension sim,ply uninstall..

  • Regarding the Site Definition in Sharepoint 2010

    Hi Forum,
    I am working on sharepoint 2010,
    I created SiteDefinition through visual studio in Sharepoint 2010, after deploy in sitedefinition.
    I got new features to add in that existing sitedefinition.Can you please tell me how to proceed.
    I am thinking i can use FeatureStapling or any other way?
    please assist me regarding this issue.
    Rama

    Hi Rama,
    Feature Stapling  is the great way if the site definition is already in use (and sites have been created).
    The following articles for your reference:

  • How do you open the downloads that have been saved? I can make it to the download list but it will not let me open any of them.

    When I open an email with an attachment, it downloads the attachment and saves it to my downloads. At a later time, I return to the download list and try to open it and it will not allow me to open them. How do I open my saved downloads?

    If the Open or Open Containing Folder entry in the right-click context menu of a file in the Download Manager is grayed then that means that the file is no longer in that original download location. It may have been removed by cleanup software or anti-virus software if you haven't deleted the files yourself.

  • How do you open  the pallet/styles/ box or any other if it gets closed

    my nephew has closed my pallet/styles box which i have never closed and have no clue how to reopen it. as my nephew is 4yrs old he wasn't of much help either. i can find nothing anywhere in photoshop CS2 version that allows me to reopen that or any other box that normally is there when i open the program.
    does anyone know how to do this?
    thanks

    Hmm... a 4 year old using YOUR computer may (well... WILL) lead to future problems
    I think an inexpensive computer, with some learning software for the age group, would be a good idea... let him do whatever he wants, with YOUR computer being strictly off limits

  • How can you opening the tree.jsp page to a specific folder?

    I am trying to pass a query string into the viewer.jsp page so that I can open the appropriate folder relating to that query string. I can't find a way to do this as of yet. A lot of the code doing the work is only .class files so it is challenging.
    If you have any ideas as to how to begin to tackle this problem please let me know. Basically the querystring would contain the folder I want the tree to open to.

  • How do you open the door on a Late 2013 27" iMac to add more RAM ?

    I ordered an additional 8GB of RAM before I received my iMac, but now that I have it and ready to add the extra RAM, I can find no mention anywhere of how you go about opening the door on the back of the iMac to access the RAM. Reminds me of the first Systems Analysis lecture I attended which was all about how to write a manual, for example on how to light a cigarette. The first candidate up read out his instructions and they seemed perfect until the instructor told him he hadn't mentioned opening the box of matches.

    Installing memory on the new iMacs are a PITA plus a few
    The first thing you should do is to unplug the iMac & everything else you have attached to it including the keyboard.
    Place the iMac facedown on something soft (couch).
    Just below the power cord connection you will see a square box.  It pops open if you have the strength of Arnold Schwarzenegger.
    With Arnold's strength, you will need to push the RAM into the slots which is no easy task.  Make sure you hear a CLICK!  The "click" confirms the RAM has been seated correctly.

    GOOD LUCK!  You're gonna need it. 

  • How do you open the clone panel in Photoshop Elements 12, it isn't shown in the windows list

    I am trying to access the clone panel in Photoshop Elements 12. The tutorials I have seen show a drop down list from the windows button, however on my drop down list there is no clone panel.
    I guess my question is does PE12 have a clone panel and if so how do I access it?

    I've never heard of a "clone panel" but the clone stamp is in the Enhance section on the right side, below the Healing Brush. If you see the pattern stamp there instead, just click the clone stamp in the tool options at the bottom of the window.

  • How do you open a .sit file

    That's a StuffIt archive:
