Permission Levels for Newsfeed or Discussion Board
Hello,
I only want to allow people to view only, download (documents) and have a discussion or provide feedback (I don't want them to edit or add/make changes, etc.). I reviewed the permission levels and "Read" would be an ideal option but it doesn't
allow them to use Newsfeed or Discussion Board. I don't want to give them permission to "Contribute" or "Edit" (which allows them to use the discussion board & newsfeed but it also allow them to edit and make changes to the site).
Can you please help me?
Thanks,
Vann
Hi Vann, not sure if you're giving them contribute permissions to the site or just on the discussion list, but I would give them read access to the site and contribute access to the discussion. Then go into the advanced settings for the discussion list
and check the "create items and edit items that were created by the user." This will prevent them from editing items other than ones they created.

How do i change the permission level for Itunes
I have actually been using Amazon cloud for a while now and never had this problem. Actually, I think I did get locked out once and was able to get back in by contacting support and answering some questions. This option isn't available with Apple.. They lock you out for 90 days regardless of whether you can verify your ID. I know this because I contacted them recently and they verified my identity exhaustively and then said 'sorry-there's nothing we can do and you are not getting a refund for time lost.' I think I understand why the policy is there, but I think it's ridiculous that they make no exceptions even when the mistake is on their side, which I'm pretty sure it is in my case.

SharePoint 2013 check permissions unable to find permission level for AD user
In our environment for SharePoint AD groups are associated with individual AD members and AD group is given access to SharePoint group with a permission level. When I want to check for a user who are part on the AD group using check permission to find their
SharePoint permission level it returns "none", but when I check what permission level the AD group has check permission returns correct permission level.
I am not sure if this is the right behavior for SharePoint 2013 not to display individual AD user permission using check permission, business users have to request IT every time they have to find a user permission level.Hi,
As far as I know, the user permissions which set in AD Groups is not updated immediately to SharePoint Site. The AD group informations are converted into claims and packed into security token issued by the STS (Security Token Service).
For troubleshooting your issue,you can configure the Token Cache to a smaller value and check the permission level of the user who is granted permissions through AD group:

Set permission level for views
I have a list which has some views.
I am showing one of the view in a list view webpart on a wiki page. I dont want the users to view the other views on this list apart from the view set up on the webpart.
How do I set the permission levels to achieve the same.
Many thanks in advance.The views can either be personal or public. If the view is public it will be visible to users. You may either need to delete the view or create a new personal view similar to the public view before deleting it.

Granting permission to Discussion Board
Hello Community
Using Sharepoint 2010 Server and the UI is there a way to
grant the Discussion Board permission to a group to: Add Discussion, Reply
to a Discussion and Delete a Discussion without granting Full Control or Contribute permissions?
Thank you
ShabeautHi Shabeaut,
try below workaround:
1. Create two user group. One for add discussion and second for add reply. Then add users based on your need in groups
2. Give contribute permission to first group so that they can add discussion and give read rights to second group so they can only read.
3. Now as soon a discussion is created you have do break the permission inheritance to change the permission for both groups. So go to created discussion permission and give read access to first group and contribute to second group.
This is only OOTB solution for your requirement and this is bit hectic work for admin. I would suggest that create one custom event receiver, which can change the item level permission as soon as discussion is created.
The thread is http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/89056c2e-352e-4ad1-b9dd-c53e41c8d9ab/custom-grant-permission-for-discussion-board?forum=sharepointadminprevious

I downloaded this App for ringtones (Ringtones 500.000) , purchased a full version of it, so I should be able to download unlimited number of ringtones. The problem is, it won't let me download any ringtones after 10, which is how free version of this App performs.
I have contacted developers, but they keep sending the instruction book to me with step-by-step inforamtion, which is out of date itself, but that is not a problem, I think in my case.
When I try to report a problem to Apple , using hte link on my receipt, it just takes me to a page with discussion boards and FAQ.
I would like to get $1.99 back instead of troubleshoot this any longer, because it seems App help support people are not understanding the problem.
I did try re-loading the App -didn't help either.
Thank you!Welcome to the Apple Community.
Apple's policy on sales of digital content is that all sales are final. If however you wish to appeal to Apple, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will not be redirected to the report form, in this case use the report a problem option from the invoice that was emailed to you. -
Create an outlook form for a discussion board
We need to create a new form or use the existing IPM.Post class and create a form along with few custom fields in our discussion board.
Any user entry to that custom field in outlook should be posted to the list in the appropriate field.
How do we achieve this.Hi,
Do you want to create a form for a discussion board list as below?
If so, we can customize it using InfoPath 2010 and publish the form to the discussion board list, the following article for your reference:

If I misunderstand your requirement, please provide more information.

MayankHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that when you went to the Discussion List and selected the thread then view the list in “Flat” view, the Spelling ICON was greyed out.
By design in SharePoint, when you view the list in “Flat” view, the ribbon would be as below:
Only when you add a reply and move the mouse to the content, the Spelling ICON will appear.

Custom View of Discussion Board
I have a OOTB discussion board to which I have added some custom properties (Group and Category).
I want to create a custom view of the discussion board that only shows conversations with a specific Group value. This works fine; however, when I click the title of the conversation, nothing is displayed (There are no items to show in this view...).
Do I need two separate views for this? It seems like I need a top-level Subject view and then a secondary Threaded view to show the conversation maybe? I wasn't able to find instructions for doing this anywhere.
Thanks!Hi Chad,
According to your description, my understanding is that the discussion board Subject field URL link is not working in the custom view.
By design, SharePoint Discussion Board Subject field is linking to Flat.aspx which can display the conversation with replies. But for a custom view , the subject field cannot and will link to
display form for the conversation item. For a solution, the fileRef will take you to the current forum post:
<a href="{@FileRef}">
<xsl:value-of select="@Title"/>
</a>
