Lost site settings

One of my sites is missing from site settings. I imported it from the .ste file but that info was out of date. The server address had changed a couple of years ago, and I was connecting fine from DW until I rebuilt it from the import. Is there somewhere other than the .ste file where this info is kept? I have backups that I can grab something from but don't know what to look for.

Windows or MAC?
What DW version?
On Windows, the site definitions for Dreamweaver CS6 are stored in the Windows Registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Common\12.0\Sites.
In Mac OS X, they are at Macintosh HD:<username>:Library:Application Support:Adobe:Common:12.0:Sites:Site Prefs.
In recent versions of Mac OS X, the Library folder is hidden. In the Mac Finder, select Go > Go to Folder, type ~/Library in the search field, and click Go.

My Site Settings: Language Options not applied

On a SharePoint 2013 Server I want that the user be able to select is own My Site Language (as SP2010).
So, goingo to: Services Applications > User Profile Service > Setup My Sites:
And checking in the The Language Options checkbox (Allow user to choose the language of their personal site)
The above option doesn't result in any language selection prompt for the user on the My Site creation.
Ideas?

Hi falloutpt,
Based on the following article, user's My Site will be created with default, primary language of the SharePoint Server 2013 installation on the server by default, then user can change his my site to display other language installed, it should be different
from the SharePoint 2010.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262500.aspx#mui
"When enabled, users can use the multilingual user interface feature
for their My Sites. This feature is used to display the site's user interface in a secondary language that the user prefers instead of the default, primary language that was selected when the site was created.
By default, when a new site is created, it is created in the default, primary language of the SharePoint Server 2013 installation on the server. A farm administrator must install language packs on the server before sites can be created in languages
other than the default, primary language.
For My Sites, the multilingual user interface feature is controlled by the Language Options setting when you configure My Site settings. The languages that are available to users correspond to the language packs installed in the server
farm. For more information about language packs, see Install or uninstall language packs for SharePoint 2013."
Change and display language should also have changed in SharePoint 2013, user could display the My Site as other languages from IE language settings, which have being installed on SharePoint server.

Error trying to access Site Settings on sub-sites after migration from WSS 3.0 to Foundation 2010

I have migrated a WSS 3.0 database over to SP Foundation 2010. I can browse all the sites just fine. I can successfully get to Site Actions, Site Settings on the main site(parent). However, when I try to access Site Actions, Site Settings
from any of the subsites, I get the error below. It has been years since we setup the old WSS 3.0 site. I cannot remember what modifications may have been made that could help determine what is causing this. Thanks

Hi Poly,
I recommend to check if the Alternate Access Mapping is correct for the web application where the site exists in Central Administration.
To narrow the issue scope, I recommend to create a new subsite to see if the issue still occurs.
Please also check the ULS log to get the detailed error message.
For SharePoint 2010, by default, ULS log is at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS.
You can check the ULS log by the methods here:

SharePoint 2013 - Site Settings - Users and permissions - "Access Request and invitations" link missing

I am site collection administrator and have configured the outgoing email in Central administration but "Access Request and invitations" link is missing, pl advice any additional configurations for this link to show up
I was though able to configure access requests by going to Site Settings->Users and permission and on the ribbon selected "Access Request Settings"
What is the difference in either of the approaches?
Thanks
Abhishek

Hi there,
I noticed this post, and didnt really find an appropriate solution to your issue. I noticed the same issue when dealing with Access Requests. First of all to make sure that the Request feature is enabled, you need to access
Site Settings -> Site Permissions -> Access Request Settings -> Make sure the
'Allow access requests' option is enabled.
The Allow access screen just allows you to enable the feature and also to specify a email address that notifications are sent to. Whereas the 'Access Requests and Invitations' section provides a screen to manage Access Requests and request history.
I noticed then that the Access Requests and Invitations link under 'User and Permissions' didnt actually appear until someone actually requests to join the site. It seems that this is needed to display the screen. Once actioned once, the option stays there.
Hope it helps

Access Denied Error while accessing "Site Settings Access requests and invitations"

Hi,
I am getting Access Denied Error while accessing "Site Settings > Access requests and invitations" in SharePoint 2013 online. Currently I am the owner of the site and have "FULL CONTROL" access. I am able to access using
site collection account. So, what permission I have to give my regular account to access this page?
Thanks, Pal

Hello,
Have you recently changed the Owners group of the site collection or removed the user from the original owners group?
The reason I am asking is when the Access requests and invitations list are created, the permissions are given only to the default owners group at the time that the Access Request list was created. If this "regular account" is not part of that owners
group, the user will receive access denied. Site Collection Admins always have permissions for the Access Request List.
A workaround for the Access Denied issue is listed in the KB article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2911390/en-us. By giving the correct group or user the permissions to this list, the users will not receive
the Access Denied issue anymore.
Preferably, in order to grant the user the full permissions ( you will see features like resending invitations may still fail after implementing the above workaround) there is one other workaround that may be required depending on what the original issue
was. Below are additional steps to restore full functionality.
1)Access the /_layouts/15/permsetup.aspx of the site collection, make sure the default Owners Group
is set correctly. (There is a group selected)
2) Add user to that Owners Group. (Issue may be resolved at this step if the site collection Owners
Group was never changed, if not continue to next step.)
3) Implement workaround on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2911390/en-us, by adding that owners
group as Full control on Access Request list Permissions.
Let me know how this works out for you.

Windows 8.1 Update Causes Lost Brightness Settings / Screen is Dim

I updated from Windows 8 to 8.1 and the next day my screen went dim and I could not adjust it neither with the keyboard +/-, nor with the onscreen graphics dashboard, nor within the power settings.
How do you fix it?

Sometimes Windows updates will break your graphics driver. That is because Intel and NVidia do not update their graphics drivers on the same schedule that Microsoft
updates Windows, and sometimes the updates are incompatible and cause the graphics driver to do wonky things. In my case that came in the form of lost brightness settings.
I searched these forums for a fix and I could not find one, so now that I know the answer, I am sharing it here.
How do you fix it? You have to reinstall the graphics driver. This is how I did it.
I found the graphics driver install file that was already on my computer and I ran it. It reinstalled the driver in about 5 seconds and my screen brightness functionality was restored.
Where is my graphics driver install file? On my computer it is here:
D:driversVGAIntelx649.17.10.2932\Setup.exe
Yours is probably in a different but similar location depending on how it was installed and what brand it is, etc. I have a Lenovo
P400 touchscreen laptop with an Intel HD 4000 Graphics.

Editing Site Settings Gives "Unable to process your request"

Hi,
I get "unable to process your request" when trying to edit the FIM portal site settings. I'm using my domain admin account I installed FIM under, which is also a SharePoint administrator. I'm trying to edit some basic UI details.
I've installed FIM 2010 R2 SP1 on SharePoint Foundation 2010 with SQL 2008 R2. I tried logging into the FIM portal with the fim service account, but this still gives the same error when editing site settings. I'm using separate servers for the fim portal,
fim service DB and fim sync server (all have their firewalls turned off).
Advice on how to resolve this is much appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Tomek,
Managed to get this working - I missed out the alternate access mappings on SharePoint 80. Simply adding the internal and internet URLs worked :-)

Why is there no email option under site settings in the Business Catalyst Dashboard?

I have pushed a site live, and it has propegated, and looks fine on the Internet, but there is no email option under site settings in the Business Catalyst Dashboard as the tutorial and help screen said there would be.
The domains all look correct, and there is an MX record as well. Did email get moved to another screen, or is there something wrong in my setup?

On the page found at ttp://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/setup-pop-imap-email-accounts.html
it says that there should be a "users" field under "Site Settings," and that is where email accounts are set up. There is not, any more than there was a "email" field as referenced in the tutorial (as you can see from the screen shot above). I can no longer correspond with Adobe, since my primary email address on file with Adobe was with the domain that was transferred to Business Catalyst.

I have no "Save Site as Template" in my Sharepoint site settings

Hallo!
I have Sharepoint 2007 installation. Want to make site template. All RTFM I found contains reference to "Save Site as Template" operation, which must be at site settings, at "Look and Feel".
But I cannot find it there!!! I have no such a menu in list settings, and site collection settings too.
And I have no idea how I can workaround it.
Please, help me with solution, or some advise. Maybe, there is some other, command-line method to do it...

Where does a sharepoint admin find the site settings for a mysite site collection?

We are using sp 2010 service pack 2.
When I look at another user's mysite, logged in as an admin (spsadmin2 is my daily admin type account), I don't seem to have access to the site settings.
However, if I log in as the fundamental farm admin account (spfarm), I do see the site settings drop down.
The site settings I see are not the site settings for a specific user's site collection. It is, instead, the settings for "mysites" in general.
So, how can I look at the site settings for a specific user's site collection?
I wanted to be able to look at their site collection recycle bin to see if something deleted was still there.
Thank you!

So, our mysites are associated with a web application separate from our other sharepoint sites.
The mysites root site collection has our SharePoint admins listed as full control owners.
The SharePoint admins also are listed as Farm admins.
Because there is only 1 secondary site collection owner permitted, if that is the means by which someone gets access to the site collection settings and permissions, then it seems like we would have to keep changing the secondary owner quite frequently.
You mentioned being able to set permissions on "the group" to have rights.
Which group? The Personal Sites Owners group of our mysites web app? Or another group?
Thank you for your help!

Contribute CS4 reinstall - import previous site settings

I have reinstalled Contribute CS4 Mac from DVD after a disk crash. I have a full time machine backup of the previous disk. How can I restore the previous Connection and Website settings? I am the administrator and want to be able to access all the previously configured group and editor settings.
I trying restoring ~/Library/Adobe/Contribute CS4 which appears to contain my old site settings but they don't show up in the new installation.
Thanks,
Robert

1) Quit Contribute
2) Restore "~/Library/Adobe/Contribute CS4"
2) Also restore "~/Library/Preferences/Adobe Contribute 5 Preferences".
Hope this solves your problem.

Sharepoint 2013 - Site Settings shows $Resources:ReportServerResources,ReportServerSiteSettingsGroupTitle;

I didn't notice this before, but I have 2 site collections, one shows this when I go to Site Settings:
$Resources:ReportServerResources,ReportServerSiteSettingsGroupTitle;
$Resources:ReportServerResources,ScheduleList;
$Resources:ReportServerResources,SiteLevelSettings;
$Resources:ReportServerResources,ManageSiteDataAlerts;
and the other one doesn't.
Thise are hyperlinked and when I click on the links I get an error "Something Went Wrong".
The one that is showing this in Site Settings also has the Features Activated:
$Resources:ReportServerResources,FeatureTitle;
$Resources:ReportServerResources,FeatureDescription;
and
$Resources:ReportServerResources,RSAdHocReportDesignerFeatureTitle;
$Resources:ReportServerResources,RSAdHocReportDesignerDescription;
I've seen another person ask this question, but doesn't explain why the Site Collection Feature also looks like that, it doesn't look like it should be that way.
The Reporting Service was setup previously and it really hasn't been utilized yet. I don't remember seeing it before. Could something have gotten corrupted?
Thanks
Kim

Hi Kim,
If the issue site, is there custom site feature or the issue site is created based on custom site template? If so, then try disabling the custom site feature and test the issue again.
If it doesn't solve the case, then the issue might be related to Reporting Services. I'd suggest you find error message related to it. Or if RS is not utilized yet, you could uninstall it. Then re-install it if necessary.

Why the dependency of "Site settings" for the "About me"-button in the top menu?

Hello, I recently had a customer case where the customer asked why certain users couldn't see the "About me"-button in the top personal actions menu, after they clicked at the user name/avatar. Only user details, "Sign out" and "My
settings" was visible for the user, who had an user license and a my site. There was also no customizations whatsoever in either javascript or css that could cause this, and the masterpage or the personal actions control doesn't seem to actually have
anything to do with the "About me"-button.
After some tracing and testing of Microsoft's code so we now know why the "About me" is not visible to all users. "About me" button depends on whether the "Site
Settings" is available in the menu or not. For the "Visitors" then there is no "Site Settings" because of their "Read"-permission level and thus does the "About me" button not appear in the menu.
In sposuitenav.js there is a loop for all ie:menuitem and inside of that there is these lines:
if(menuItem.id.indexOf("MenuItem_Settings") > 0) {
hasSiteSettingsMenuItem = true;
And a bit further down the code there is this:
if(!hasSiteSettingsMenuItem) {
a.AboutMeLink = null;
Which will cause so that the "About me"-link is null and is not rendered in the personal actions menu. Otherwise the AboutMeLink would have had the default value that is set by the code earlier.
So my question really, is why have Microsoft made the "About me"-button depending on whether or not the "Site settings" is visible for the user?
Because neither I nor my client can understand why there should be any relationship between Site Settings and the About Me link. Shouldn't anyone be able to go to their "my site"? As long as they have one, I can't see any reason to prohibit
anyone else than site administrators to see and use the "About me"-link.

It's a recent change it seems, people on the Office 365 Yammer network have noticed this as well. Microsoft has confirmed this as an issue and will work to fix it.

Where are "Site settings"?

I've finally upgraded from a very old version of Dreamweaver to CS6. Trying to connect, I'm told that the server certificate is unsigned or not issued by a trusted certificate authority. I am then told to go to "Site settings" - but where are they? Not under "Site"!

That is taken care of by your hosting company on the server. DW is just warning you that your site is apparently not secure, owned by Scammy McScammerson, or the administrator oopsied and let their security certificate expire.

No Advanced section under site settings?

I am trying to set up a POP/IMAP email account and there is no Advanced section under the site settings. Also, I keep getting this message " Your email is configured with an external provider. If you want to create E-Mail accounts you need to change your E-Mail settings. " Yet when I click on the button to go to make the change, it just directs me back to the Site Settings screen with no instruction on what to change! Help!

If you are using Third party email services, get MX records settings from your email provider and add it to Site Settings-> Site Domain, as explained here,
Business Catalyst Help | Use an external email provider
If you are gong to host email to Business catalyst, Select Site Settings > Site Domains and then select New MX Record from the More Actions menu.
Select Site Settings > Site Domains and then select New MX Record from the More Actions menu-> New MX Record, select your domain name, and click Save.
Let me know if you have any trouble
