Owner of eclipse workspace had his account removed from Visual Studio, unable to check in or shelve pending changes.

A colleague recently left and his Visual Studio account was removed. Problematically, he was the owner of our Android Development workspace in Eclipse. Now when I attempt to check-in pending changes I get this error:
"The identity <Owner's Username> is not a recognized identity."
I also sometimes get an error saying the workspace does not exist
I have occasionally been able to successfully check-in single files, but this is unreliable.
I have attempted to change the ownership of the workspace with the command
tf workspace workspacename;username /computer:computername /collection:TeamProjectCollectionUrl /newowner:ownername
but it throws an error saying I have to shelve pending changes before I can change the ownership of the workspace, which is of course gives me the error message above when I attempt it. Interestingly the above command sometimes fails and claims the workspace
doesn't exist, but it only does this sometimes.
I'm very confused as what to do, especially with so many things sometimes almost working for no reason, and I welcome any suggestions.

So I think I have dealt with the issue. What I ended up doing was recreating my colleagues account then shelving the changes in the workspace making sure I had the 'Store pending changes locally' box unchecked. This
allowed me to then use the command:
tf workspace workspacename;username /computer:computername/collection:TeamProjectCollectionUrl
/newowner:ownername
To change the workspace to my name, then in Eclipse pending changes explorer view in the Actions drop down menu I selected 'Switch Workspace' and chose the new workspace that was now under my name. An alert pops up saying that it will bring all projects offline,
I hit OK then I right-clicked my project in package explorer and went to Team->Return Online. I can now check in pending changes and safely remove the old account.

  • Help with Account Removal from Skype Directory

    To whom it may concern,
    I need help with removing my Skype account from the Skype Directory.  According to this webpage: https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA142/can-i-delete-my-skype-account, only someone from Skype Customer Service can remove my account from the directory. Can someone assist me in removing my account from the directory? Thanks.

    I am not eligible for email or live chat service with a skype representative... I decided to post in this forum. Thanks anyway.
    afaik, all users can use the email support option.  But as you said you can not use that facility, send an email to their generic email address instead - [email protected]

  • Employee given invite, he installed, but after installing CC app   Audition under his account email, it still says 'trial', on admin side, it says 'pending user' and not 'active.

    I am the admin in my company, and out of all the licenses, he is having a problem with this. And this is the second try. We tried with the company email for him, and it didn't work. We are now trying with his Gmail, and there is still a problem.

    So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right?  I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server.  You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them.  Then
    do an install from the console.  When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.

  • Deletion of Skype accounts/ removal from directory...

    I'm not really interested in using Skype anymore and I somehow wound up with two screen names - [redacted] and [redacted] . Is there a way to delete my accounts manually?

    First things, first: for your safety and protection, please never, ever include any personally identifiable information such as your real name, Skype account name, e-mail address, or a telephone number in a post on a public Community or forum such as this. Thanks!

  • I have tried to call AppleCare to have my old iCloud account removed from my old 4s. It's under my old email account which was hacked and I don't have access to. I do not have my iCloud password and can't sell my phone until find my phone is deactivated.

    How do I get apple to deactivate my old iCloud account I have no password for it or for the email address. Phoned the number given by Apple and told I'd have to pay for technical help.

    If you can't reclaim the account here:

    then call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security. If they require you to pay for technical support, then you'll have to pay.

  • Verizon email account removed from HTC Thunderbolt

    My Verizon email account has mysteriously disappeared from my HTC Thunderbolt. I have tried a number of times to reinstall the account onto the phone but I keep getting a message that it won't connect to the server. I am receiving my emails on my Verizon account on my pc just fine. I have called Verizon Wireless who told me to call Verizon for their email settings. The email settings on my phone are correct. They match the email settings on my pc. I did call Verizon anyway. They gave me different email settings to try. That didn't work either. I called HTC. They say it is a Verizon server problem. I have been getting the runaround for two days now and one Verizon tech offered to transfer me to someone I would have to PAY for support. Another wanted to rout my email through my gmail account. No one knows what is wrong. Does anyone have any answers? I tried switching to 3G. It didn't work. Thanks.

    I am confused, is it a verizon email account ([email protected]) or is it a hotmail account?  why do you have any hotmail settings. 
    Try following the instructions at www.verizon.com/repair 
    they should set you up just fine if you are using a verizon.net account. 

  • IPod can't be removed from computer and unable to shut down windows

    When i tried to connect my ipod to the computer and opening itunes, nothing works. everything just hangs. i tried to open ipod as a hard disk from my computer but it couldn't open. So i tried to shut down the computer and it couldnt be shut down. i had to restart it. When i tried to remove hardware safely, there was no response.
    after restarting the com and replugging the ipod, the same problems abound. now, i can't even see ipod in my computer as a hard disk.
    what is wrong? My ipod is abt a yr and a half old and nothing of this sort has happened before.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

  • Previously deleted messages are re-downloaded, not removed from server??

    I have a POP email account that I access from my iMac using Mail. I regularly delete mail from my inbox in Mail, so there are only a few hundred messages in the inbox. But the other day I logged onto my mail account via the web and discovered thousands of my previously deleted messages still in my inbox on the server. I opened Mail Preferences and discovered that the checkbox "Remove mail from Server ... when I move it from my inbox" was not checked, so I checked that box. However, I figured that would only cause future messages that are removed form my inbox to be removed from the server, but would not do anything about the thousands of previously deleted messages that were still on the server. So I also clicked the button labeled "Remove Now". I figured that would cause Mail to tell the server to remove all the old messages on the server that had previously been removed from the local Mail inbox.
    The next day I discovered that thousands of old messages I had already deleted (many of them long ago) had mysteriously reappeared in my Mail inbox. And of course, checking the account via the web, I discovered they were still on the server too. What did I do wrong? I thought Mail would tell the server to delete all those old messages. Instead it seems to have told the server to download them all to my Mail inbox again, the exact opposite of what I intended. I don't know if this is a disconnect between the Mac Mail client and the mail server, or if I misunderstood the purpose of these options in the Mail preferences dialog.

    Hello,
    I have never tried this exact action, but I think the Remove Now will not do much, with When Moved from the Inbox. This would require the action of removing the message, after this setting has been changed. I don't think it would remove any previously moved from the Inbox, because no check to correlate the current contents of Inbox to a POP account.
    Does this make sense, to you?
    However, there would appear to be some corruption in the file to prevent duplicate downloads, or messages previously downloaded.
    In Mail 2.x, Apple introduced a way to look a the server, of even POP accounts. To do this, control-click on any inbox or any mailbox, and choose Get Info. Once the dialogue window is presented, and if you have more than one account, choose the account, and you can not observe the server contents, but also choose and delete individual messages.
    Keep us posted about future behavior.

  • What could cause a server to be removed from the farm other than running PSConfig and removing it?

    Hi,
    We had a strange issue today.  One of our two production WFE servers in our SP2010 farm had become disconnected from the farm. I noticed it because I had created a new site collection within an existing web site last week but it was only available on
    one WFE. I didn't think for one second that the server had already been removed from the farm but I had decided I would remove it and re-add it to see if that would fix the issue.  When I ran PSConfig to remove it I found the following:
    I checked the log:
    Entering function WelcomeForm.TryToLoadTheFarm
    Found a task by the name of initialize in the task collection
    Entering function Farm.Farm
    Leaving function Farm.Farm
    Entering function Farm.TryIsJoinedToFarm
      Entering function get CommandCollection.this[string key]
        Entering function CommandCollectionBase.Get
          Found value in collection for key initialize
        Leaving function CommandCollectionBase.Get
        Found command initialize in collection
      Leaving function get CommandCollection.this[string key]
      Entering function Command.this[string key]
        Entering function CommandCollectionBase.Get
          Found value in collection for key B2B_UPGRADE
        Leaving function CommandCollectionBase.Get
        Found parameter B2B_UPGRADE in collection
      Leaving function Command.this[string key]
      Clearing cached Farm objects to reload
      Entering function Farm.Clear
        Entering function CentralAdminServiceInstance.Reset
        Leaving function CentralAdminServiceInstance.Reset
      Leaving function Farm.Clear
      My cached Farm object is null, so will load it
      Calling SPFarm.Local and SPServer.Local to get the local farm objects
      SPFarm.Local returned a local farm
      SPFarm.Local retuned a farm, but SPServer.Local returned null.  Failed to connect to the farm, except in B2B Upgrade.
      Entering function Farm.Clear
        Entering function CentralAdminServiceInstance.Reset
        Leaving function CentralAdminServiceInstance.Reset
      Leaving function Farm.Clear
    Leaving function Farm.TryIsJoinedToFarm
    Failed to successfully try to see if this server is joined to the server farm.  
    The operation will continue so that you can force a disconnect from a server farm that cannot be contacted
    Resource id to be retrieved is FarmIsJoinedFailureWhileUsingUICanOnlyDisconnect for language English (United States)
    Resource retrieved id FarmIsJoinedFailureWhileUsingUICanOnlyDisconnect is Failed to detect if this server is joined to a server farm.
    Possible reasons for this failure could be that you no longer have the appropriate permissions to the server farm, the database server hosting the server farm is unresponsive,
    the configuration database is inaccessible or this server has been removed from the server farm.
    To diagnose this problem further, review the extended error information located at {0}.
    If this problem persists, choose to disconnect from the server farm. After disconnecting, run the wizard again to create or connect to an existing server farm.
    Anyone know what this line means?
    SPFarm.Local retuned a farm, but SPServer.Local returned null.  Failed to connect to the farm, except in B2B Upgrade.
    Permissions were unchanged from before and I was running PSConfig elevated with the SharePoint admin account. So with this information along with the fact that the new site collection was not available on this server I concluded that it had been removed
    somehow.
    Has anyone seen this happen before?  As it is a production server I'm going to have to explain this to the customer.
    Thanks! 

    Hi Fridge,
    In Sharepoint central admin,Manage servers in Farm,Does this show this WFE Server still?
    Check if any ports(32843,32844) has been closed on the WFE server which got disconnected as these ports are used to communicate between WFE servers
    Check if this is helpful

  • Bug?  JDev Doesn't Remove From CVS

    Has anyone had any problems removing from cvs? I'll remove a view object from cvs, and then erase from disk. I then go out and check the file system where the cvs repository resides and these files still exist. When I do a full checkout into a new workspace these files show up in the project again. Is this a bug?
    -Brian

    hi,
    i am having the same problem when removing a file via cvs. i did removing as follows:
    removing the file via 'Versioning - Remove...'.
    the messages log shows the proper cvs command 'cvs remove -lf filename'
    the 'uncommitted files' view shows the file with status 'scheduled for removal' but the file is not selectable and all commit buttons remain disabled.
    after pressing 'save all' the file disapears from the uncommitted files view.
    now the project file appears in the uncommitted files view with status modified and the 'commit all' button is enabled (but in the Versioning menu the 'commit...' entry is still disabled).
    pressing 'commit all' now does not remove the file from the cvs repository.
    after updating the project from cvs shows the previously removed file again with status 'scheduled for removal'
    jdev version: 9.0.5.2
    os: Windows XP sp1
    cvs client: cvsnt 2.0.41a
    i have tested the removal via cvs command line and it worked as expected.
    i hope this description can help to reproduce the problem.
    regards

  • Images Removed from Vault Folder

    So if I try to import any of those images in "Images Removed from Vault" with the box checked don't import duplicates, and I check each and every image and none show up in Import window then these must be duplicates and then safe to trash? Correct?

    Yes it is a normal but unreported feature. When you run the vault command the vault created is a snapshot of the current state of the library. If there is a previous vault for this library then images that are in the vault but no longer in the library are moved to the folder you referred to.
    If you are certain you do not want any of those images anymore you an delete them.
