Mysites 'change the look' back to default

Hi -
I recently attempted to change the look of mysites in our environment. This worked, however it removed the person image from the upper left hand corner. I would like to 'undo' this change, but can't seem to figure out how. I would like
mysites to be back to the original masterpage before I changed it.
Thanks,
Jesse

Composed looks / Change the look themes are missing when creating site from saved template

Hi,
I found an issue when save you own site template and then want to create a new site from that template the "Change the Look" themes are missing and if you go to site settings, Comosed looks where the themes are stored is empty! Anyone else has
the same experience? Any workaround for this?
regards
Martin

I've just seen this exact problem on a SharePoint 2013 farm as well this morning, but have managed to fix the blank "Composed Looks" list issue, although am still working on the "Change the look" wizard pages.
Edit: found a fix for this too now. See my next post below.
It appears that the process of saving a site as a template and then creating a new site from that template causes the original XsltListViewWebPart used to display the default view of the "Composed Looks" list, to be replaced with a ListViewWebPart,
which appears to be broken.
Edit: have also seen this behaviour on sites created from the built-in templates but haven't determined exactly whether this is a bug. ULS logs never show any errors when this occurs so it appears to be "by-design". Ugh.
There may be a tidier way to fix this, but for now, I used SharePoint Designer 2013 to copy an XsltListViewWebPart from a working "Composed Looks" list, AllItems.aspx page and replaced the ListViewWebPart in the broken Composed Looks list, AllItems.aspx
page with it. There is also some additional post copy-paste tidy up to do on the pasted-in XsltListViewWebPart HTML to get it to work within the context of the site it is now in as it will contain GUIDs and URLs that are only relevant within the site
that you copied it from and these need to be replaced with the GUIDs/URLs from the replaced ListViewWebPart - paste it in a notepad session before deleting/overwriting it so you can grab those bits.
I'll write a more detailed step-by-step if anyone wants it, but this doesn't seem to fix the broken "Change the Look" wizard still, only the "Composed Looks" list default view. I'll look into that now and post back more complete solution if I can
find a fix.
Edit: Found a fix. see my next post below.
Edit Edit: One more thing - on some Composed Looks lists we are seeing empty lists once the default view webPart is fixed up. To correct this, you can copy selected Composed Looks from a working site with a full set.
Before you do that, edit the default view in both the source and destination Composed Looks lists and include the Title field as it is a required field.
Then, you can use Datasheet View (just click the edit list link to put it in Datasheet View mode) to bulk copy/paste Composed Looks between the source and destination lists.
Do a little post-paste tidy up on the URLs as above to make sure that they are correct for their new location and then click on over to your Change the Look wizard.
You should see all of your Composed Looks displayed nicely on the page.
Note that the Current Look might not represent the sites actual appearance as it's settings will reflect the source sites appearance, but you can tweak it with the Wizard now.

Glenn
Can you confirm your sharepoint patch level?

Error when trying to change the look of a site collection

Hello everyone!
I have a single-server on-premise installation of SharePoint 2013 and I noticed that you can change the way fonts, colors etc. are used on a site collection by selecting "Change the look" from the site settings. However when I browse the page I
get an empty page with the spinner on the right just going in circles.
The browser log displays an error from _layouts/15/designgallery.js with this message:
SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character
The file is minified so unfortunately it does not tell me much more. However I also noticed a call to the webservice at /_layouts/15/designdata.ashx?hashcode=-1638098219&lcid=1033. Although this call returned a http 200 response the page turned out to
be the "Sorry, something went wrong"-page with a correlation id as well. Looking up the correlation id in the trace log I found this unexpected error
Application error when access /_layouts/15/designdata.ashx, Error=Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Has anyone encountered this error before or knows what the issue might be? I suspect that this error prevents me from changing the look of the site collection.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that the “Change the look” page displayed blank, and it still shown working on it.
This issue is always related to system requirenment. Did your environment fit for the hardware and software requirements for SharePoint ?
You can check with the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485.aspx
Did the issue occur in other site collection or web application?
You can refresh the page or reopen the page to check whether it loading.
Did you find any error or unexpected occurred in the ULS log or event log?
For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

Change the look and custom themes, masterpage problem

I have created a masterpage and deployed it to the masterpage gallery.
I have created a spcolor file and a spfont file and deployed them to the theme catalog.
I have also created a New item in the composed look list like this:
Masterpage: /_catalogs/masterpage/mycustom.seattle.master
Theme: /_catalogs/theme/15/mycustom.spcolor
Font: /_catalogs/theme/15/mycustom.spfont
Image: none
DisplayIndex 3
The problem is this: The theme is not displayed in the Change the look preview window.
But if i change the masterpage back to std (/_catalogs/masterpage/seattle.master) in my composed look item. THEN it is displayed ??
Changing back to my custom masterpage, then it disappears.
Everything looks right, i can apply the theme through code. Masterpage is also changed in code and works.
The only place it doesn't work is in change the look.
The masterpage is deployed like this:
<Module Name="MasterPages" List="116" Url="_catalogs/masterpage" Path="MasterPages" RootWebOnly="TRUE">
    <File Url="mycustom.seattle.master" Type="GhostableInLibrary">
      <Property Name="UIVersion" Value="15" />
      <Property Name="ContentTypeId" Value="0x010105" />
    </File>
</Module>
What am i missing ??

I really want to change the look of my lockscreen, but i dont know how. Plz help!

On my iPhone I can change the background of the lockscreen, or or with things like springboard I can change the theme. I wanted to do this on my mac so i downloaded Lockscreen 2. But I didn't want a passpattern, I would rather a password. So is there any way I can change the look of my dull-looking default lockscreen?

Change the look of Tab Pages

Hi,
Is there any way to change the look (but not the
mechanism) of Tab Pages in Forms?
If I wanted my own (say) "rounded" tab pages, is there
any easy way to achieve this?
Can we get our hands on the Java object that is used
to create a tab page - if so, it could be altered
and compiled and linked in as a Java Bean, but how to make
"normal" text boxes be subordinate to a Java Bean... ?
Any help appreciated; thanks in advance.
Mungo Henning

Mungo,
unfortunate we don't support PJCs on tab canvases because this is what you would need for the desired change. The other option - as you said - is to create a tab page and add Forms components to it: This requires to spider the Forms Applet at runtime, which I tried to do a while back, but which also truned out to be problematic. So as it seems, adding your own tab canvas is not possible.

My txt message settings recently changed to send txts from my Mac email rather than my phone# and there doesn't seem to be a way to change the settings back. The phone# in receive at screen is under intensified so unselectable. Any suggestions?

My txt message settings recently changed to send txts from my Mac email rather than my phone# and there doesn't seem to be a way to change the settings back. The phone# in receive at screen is under intensified so unselectable. Any suggestions?

After reading what you have posted, I checked my iPhone 4S. When looking at messages in settings, my receive at has 2 addresses, my phone number and my Apple ID email address. The phone number is "under intensified" as you describe it. Checking the Caller ID, it shows my phone number and Apple ID email. The phone number is checked. This all seems to be the same as you describe yours. My text messages are all working as they always have, and they are showing as coming from my phone number. Both to people that I iMessage with and people that I can only text with. I'm not sure why you say texts are being sent from your Mac email. Did someone receive a text that shows the email as the return address?

How can I change the look of URL Icons?

I have created several web site URL shortcuts and put them in my Dock (actually I just drug the web site URL's to my Dock, Apple crated the ability for me to do so). I have a iMac desktop, with OS X Mavericks 10.9.1.
My question is: Is there any way to change the look of the icons for the URLs that I have in my dock? (so far I have 5). They all look the same, an @ sign on top of a pedestal with a spring. I would like to at least change the face of the icon, the @ sign, to a picture of my choosing that would enable me to tell the difference of each one at a glance rather than having to slide my mouse pointer over each one to get the name of the web site to pop up.
Below is a picture of three of the icons on my dock. As you can see they all look the same, almost like the "Contacts" icon which is an @ sign on a book cover.
Best regards and still looking for clues and answers,
Peohguy

Your post helped me a lot. After all of the dust cleared and after sorting through all of the answers, the post(s) that solved my problem were from Kenichi Watanabe. However, I did have to go through all of Kenichi's posts to get the complete method that worked. Some of the other posts were difficult for me to comprehend and did not seem to work for me. I probably didn't do them like the writer's intended? Again thanks for taking the time to read my question and dig through your memory bank to come up with the thread that helped.
Best regards,

Wow, one interface change in iCal and you Mac world falls apart? I have not even noticed the change to it over the other great features included in Lion. Not a hiccup, increased stability and speed on all my Macs, Loving Mission Control, iCloud is a great selling point and Mountain Lion, due out later in the year will yet again change the face of Computing forever. Windows is following along the same path, struggling to keep up (yes I run Windows as well - trecherous isn't it!), but yet we are all doomed because a handful of people don't like the leather bound look of Address Book which will probably change again in ML if a hack isn't written in the meantime. Petty arguement here. Just give feedback to Apple, I am sure it is on the top of their agenda.
Good Luck

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

wjosten is spot on. If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.
Ciao.

How do I change the language back to english as it is running in chinese

How do I change the language back to English as it is running in Chinese?

On your keyboard, press the CTRL and the , (comma) keys at the same time
You will see a box like this:
Stay on the first tab (as shown) and select the drop-down menu as arrowed
English (UK variety) is the fifth one from the top. US variety English is the sixth one
Select your choice and click on OK
There will be an additional piece of text under the menu now; it simply tells you that you need to close and re-open iTunes for the language change to take effect.
That's it!

Launch iTunes. If you don't currently have your menu bar up, go control-B to bring it up. Now from the "Berwerken" menu select "Voorkeuren...", as per the following screenshot:
That gets you through to the preferences tabs. Now in the "Algemene" tab, go down to the "Taal" drop down menu. Select one of the two "Engels" entries (one is English UK and one is English US), as per the following screenshot:
... and click "OK".
Quit and restart your iTunes and you should now be seeing English again.

Custom Masterpage throws error in "Change the Look"

I created a custom master page based on the "Oslo" look in SP2013. The master page applies to sites just fine. However, when I try to use the "Change the Look" dialog in the site settings, the process hangs. I looked
at the script error console and found that it was looking for a missing div with the id "ms-designbuilder-cuicontainer." (The actual error
says "Unable to get property 'appendChild' of undefined or null reference in designgallery.js." I did a stack trace to find out what the null element was).
I don't see this div in any of the standard SharePoint master page html files, so I am wondering if there is a SharePoint snippet which generates
this div. I get the same error when I use the standard Oslo master page, but not with the Seattle master page. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I decided to just make my custom master page work from the Seattle master page. The Oslo master page appears to be broken for other users as well.
