SharePoint 2013 document library, permissions to upload and view shared document only

SharePoint 2013 document library I want to give access to client where they can upload and view their uploaded document and can see all documents shared with them.
I have managed to show all document shared with them only by deactivating a feature but now they can't upload any document, If I create a permission set to allow them to upload documents, they will see all other documents as well which are not shared with them.
Any suggestions?

Hi Sharaqat, the best way to handle your situation is to have a separate library or site for the client. You could use item level permissions per Thilosh, but fine-grained permissions become a major headache. You could also use web parts and audience
targeting, but that's not truly secure.
cameron rautmann
I am thinking to have a separate document library for client, where they can upload/view/edit etc, we will upload documents in a "secure" library with a column saying this is a private document or public document, if we mark a document public,
a workflow will move that document to the client's document library. I don't think there would be a problem to move a document from 1 library to another in a workflow.
That's the easiest solution I have found so far.

SharePoint 2013 Administrative Account Permissions

I'm looking for documentation about the permissions needed to administrate SharePoint Server 2013. My administrative account needs to have access to Central Administration, web applications, PowerShell, and local server resources like the file system, event
logs, services, etc.
I have found several articles that I had hoped would have the information but do not:
Plan for administrative and service accounts in SharePoint 2013 literally has the sentence:
This article does not describe security roles and permissions required to administer in SharePoint 2013.
This upsets me as I am looking for the documentation that does describe the roles and permissions required to administer in SharePoint 2013 and this line offers no help other than telling me what I need isn't here. For anyone from the documentation
team that happens to read this I offer the feedback that following that sentence there should be a link to the documentation that I am asking about here (assuming it exists ;)
Initial deployment administrative and service accounts in SharePoint 2013 details permissions for the setup user account which is like an administrative account except that in my
case the farm has been set up and I need to have administrative accounts.
Account permissions and security settings in SharePoint 2013 describes the permissions accounts and groups are granted on individual resources on the server. While this is informative,
it doesn't describe what rights I need to grant an account so it can administer.
Use Windows PowerShell to administer SharePoint 2013 describes the permissions needed to run Add-SPShellAdmin to grant others administrative access, but doesn't actually
describe the permission needed to use PowerShell to administrate.
Does this information exist publicly?

Partner Support has confirmed there is no documentation that details specific rights needed for specific administration tasks. Given how the permissions depend on the task and how many tasks there are I don't see this ever appearing in official public documentation.
I did some testing and I was able to use PowerShell as a non-admin, but I was limited to accessing objects that don't require the admin rights. For example I couldn't get the farm object (I get an exception) or the search service application (Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication
returns null), but I could list site collections and sites. Again, certain tasks require certain rights and this totally makes sense given the ability to delegate permissions built into the SharePoint platform.
So where does this leave me? For now I suppose it needs to be tested on a case-by-case basis.
For users who I want to administrate a farm with PowerShell, who have the ability to log into the servers to check local resources, services, logs, etc. practically they need to be local administrators and have SPShellAdmin. For anything else I would be
looking at creating an account with no rights and gradually add permissions until I get to a level where it can perform the required tasks. If I want an account to manage site collections I may need Remote Desktop User machine group, SPShellAdmin against the
content database, and site collection administrator (at the moment this is a guess).
So in the end it seems there is no definitive answer or broad best practice for assigning permissions to administrators beyond testing it out to see what works and hiring administrators who you trust and are accountable for their actions.

Crocodoc HTML5 document viewer:Upload and then display document

Dear all,
Did anyone try to upload and then display documents using HTML5 technology. Also recently i came across SAP is using Crocodoc,"an HTML5 documents to display their presentations". I welcome all of your thoughts and suggestions.
Regards
Prabaharan

I have the same need as vudean. I don't understand the security issue. If I type a document using Pages or whatever, why can't I upload the document to a web site? I think Apple should make the standard web "file upload control" available to iPad users.
I understand that there should be some limitations, but it should be possible to upload standard user files. I can upload them to Dropbox, so I don't se the big difference.
Does Apple read this? If not, where can I propose this feature to them?

Is there a way to have two iTunes music libraries: a library on my computer and a shared library on a NAS server (cloud box)?

I would like to know if I can have two iTunes music libraries: a library on my computer and a shared library on a NAS server (LaCie CloudBox). I want to have some music files on my computer and a larger collection of songs with cover art on a shared CloudBox (NAS server) so that also my family members can listen to the music on the Cloudbox. Is there a way to do this?
I know I could just copy the music files to the CloudBox, but that way only the songs are shared, not the cover art. I could also just keep the files on my computer and share the library via home sharing, but that way my computer would have to be always on. So is there a way to have a shared library on the cloudbox that works regardless of my computer being on or not?
Thanks,
Jay

Sharepoint 2013 setup group permissions

In my SharePoint 2013 test sharepoint site, I would like to know how the users should normally have access to the test sharepoint site. Would the user sign as themselves individually or would they sign on with a group id? Can you tell me and/or point me
to a url that will show how to setup group permissions and how the users should login?

There are two suggested ways to assign permissions on SharePoint sites:
    Using SharePoint Groups
    Using Active Directory Groups
Note: A site can be set up to either inherit permissions from the parent site, or to allow unique permissions to be set for the site. If the site is set up to inherit permissions from the parent site, you will have to Add Users or Active Directory Groups
to pre-existing SharePoint groups in the parent site.
Using SharePoint groups:
Click on “People and Groups”
Click on “New” from the drop-down menu
Select “New Group” Under “Choose the permission level group members get on this site:… ”
Select “Contribute” and click OK.
Click on “People and Groups”
Click “New”, from the drop-down menu
select “Add Users” Type in the netID(s) you wish to add
Click on “Check Names” (the netID(s) should now be underlined)
Under “Give permission”, select the group you just created and click OK.
Note: If site owners want their site to show up automatically in users' "My Links" in "My Site" then those users must be part of a SharePoint group and that group must be defined as the "Members of this Site" group.
Using Active Directory Groups:
Click on “Peoples and Groups”
Click on “New” from the drop-down menu
select “Add Users” Type in the name of the Active Directory group you wish to add
Click on Check Names (the group name should now be underlined)
Under Give Users permissions directly, select “Contribute” &click ok.
Note: You can specify multiple netID(s) or AD groups by separating the names with a semi-colon(;).
Below are list of permissions you can use for the site..
Permission Level
Description
Full Control
This permission level contains all permissions.      Assigned to the
Site name Owners SharePoint group, by default. This      permission level cannot be customized or deleted.
Design
Can create lists and document libraries, edit      pages and apply themes, borders, and style sheets in the Web site. Not assigned      to any SharePoint group, by default.
Contribute
Can add, edit, and delete items in existing      lists and document libraries. Assigned to the
Site name Members SharePoint      group, by default.
Read
Read-only access to the Web site. Users and      SharePoint groups with this permission level can view items and pages, open      items, and documents. Assigned to the
Site name Visitors SharePoint      group, by default.
Limited Access
The Limited Access permission level is designed      to be combined with fine-grained permissions to give users access to a specific      list, document library, item, or document,
without giving them access to      the entire site. However, to access a list or library, for example, a user      must have permission to open the parent Web site and read shared data such
as the theme and navigation bars of the Web site. The Limited Access permission      level cannot be customized or deleted.
NOTE You cannot assign this permission level to users or SharePoint      groups. Instead, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 automatically assigns this      permission level to users and SharePoint
groups when you grant them access      to an object on your site that requires that they have access to a higher      level object on which they do not have permissions. For example, if you grant
users access to an item in a list and they do not have access to the list      itself, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 automatically grants them Limited      Access on the list, and also the site, if needed.

MOSS 2007 : Personal Document Library Permissions gone automatically

Hi All,
I am using SharePoint version moss 2007. But yesterday permissions for personal document library has disappears and all other users not able to access their folders from same library then I had go back and given permissions manually.
Can anyone tell me what was the cause for that?
Thanks in advance....

a) Having 500GB data in one single content database inj the MOSS 2007 environment does it impacts
the site performance?
Inder: Yes, it will impact site performance at large extended, recommended is 200 gb only. Check it IO of your disk to analyze performance issue
b) Migrating the site collection as is onto single content database (all 500 GB into one content
database) into destination SharePoint 2013, does it will be a good practice? Hope SharePoint 2013 content database limit is 200 GB, hence moving 500GB as is into one database will it be good practice?
Inder:
Content database size (all usage scenarios)
4 TB per content database
Supported
Content databases of up to 4 TB are supported when the following requirements are met:
Disk sub-system performance of 0.25 IOPs per GB. 2 IOPs per GB is recommended for optimal performance.
You must have developed plans for high availability, disaster recovery, future capacity, and performance testing.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787%28v=office.15%29.aspx#ContentDB
c) Does database attach and detach works for the databases which are of size 500GB?
Inder: Yes it does work
d) Can we do database attach and detach directly from MOSS 2007 to directly onto SharePoint 2013, without
hopping onto SharePoint 2010 in between and then later to SharePoint 2013?
Inder: No, you need to pass through 2010 and then 2013
e) If moving 500GB data into one content database will not be a good approach, can we split it onto
multiple databases?
Inder: you can go with 500 gb
f) If database attach and detach doesn’t help for databases which are of size 500GB, should we go for
any tool based approach? If yes, which tool does best fit
Inder: Below are few tools you can try

SharePoint 2013 allows downloaded even for users with "view only" permissions

I have a new on premises SharePoint 2013 server and assigned a single user "view only" rights to a document library. In the "permission levels" window, this permission is described as "Can view pages, list items,
and documents. Document types with server-side file handlers can be viewed in the browser but not downloaded."
Once I gave the user that permission, I noticed he was able to view documents in the library but the "but not downloaded" part does not seem to be working. The user can still download documents to his local desktop and SharePoint does not prevent
it. The "download a copy" option appears and the user can use it.
My goal is to make all documents in this library such that users can only view them in the browser and not download a local copy. How I do that?
Thanks for your help.

Not entirely positive :-)
However, you have no server-side handlers in place today without WAC installed, so that portion of the View Only permission wouldn't be applicable.
Note that WAC must be installed on its own server and if your SharePoint server is extranet or public facing, it needs to have a valid, public SSL certificate. Also, WAC should always be run over SSL regardless if it is public facing or not as the token
sent between the SharePoint server and WAC is the same as having a username and password for the user making the request.

SharePoint 2013 - Server Error in '/' Application - This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database

Hi
After I ran SharePoint configuration wizard successfully to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 / SP1.
I can open Central Administration site just fine.
but now when I open any Site collection, I got this error.
Server Error in '/' Application
This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database. To connect this server to the server farm, use the SharePoint Products Configuration
Wizard, located on the Start menu in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products
I have restarted all the servers: SQL server, WFE and APP servers but still cann't get this resolve.
Services on all servers are running, IIS - application pools are running.
Can someone help with where that could be a problem or if there is a solution.
Thanks in advance for your comments or advices.
Swanl

Please verify the followings:
Make sure that from the SharePoint front end and application servers that you can ping your SQL server.
Make sure that your Farm account has permission to the configuration database.
Lastly verify that your database didn't for some reasons go into recovery mode.
once everything is fine and you are still having issues, restart the SQL host service on the SQL server.
Once the service is restarted you will need to reboot Central Admin and then your front end servers.
In addition, as you built your farm inside the firewall, please disable the firwall, or create rules for SQL Server service in the firwall on SQL server.
More information about creating rules in firewall, please refer to the following posts: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c5d4d0d0-9a3b-4431-8150-17ccfbc6fb82/can-not-create-data-source-to-an-sql-server http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1929/configure-windows-firewall-to-work-with-sql-server/

How to move a document to a particular document library after workflow review and approval

Hello ,
I want to do a work flow for a document review and its approval, if the document is approved
then it should be moved to a document library called "Approved Documents". I have done
following steps but don't know how to move the document to another document library.
Library > Library settings > Add a work flow
> customized Three state work flow
and it is generating work flow review emails but don't know how to move the document
somebody please help how to do this????

You can either create another SPD workflow which will run on item changed event. This workflow will check if the document status is approved and if it approved it moved document to different library. SharePoint designer does have an activity to move list
items.
SharePoint Designer workflow: Move a document from one library to another
Or you can write an event receiver which will get triggered on ItemUpdated and again if the status of the document is approved it will move your document to destination library.
Writing an event receiver will require custom coding as oppose to SPD approach.

SharePoint 2013 Picture Library Thumbnail Preview not Working

We are using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise edition. We are using an enterprise wiki site collection template. In the Site Collection Images library (Picture library), the thumbnail preview is NOT working. For some users, they can see all of
the thumbnail previews, for other users they cannot see any. Some users can see a few thumbnail preview images and the users that could not see any thumbnail preview images, after refreshing a few times could see SOME of the thumbnail preview images.
In addition it is likely not a security issue as all users have contribute rights to the library and I have SCA rights. It is also not a browser issue as one user on my team has IE 9 with nearly (maybe identical) identical settings as I do, who am also
using IE 9. We are having the problems in IE 8, 9 and 10. Also, how could it be a browser issue if using IE 9 for example, users can see some of the thumbnail preview images but not others. Lastly, it is not a file extension issue as the
problem happens with jpg's as well as png's.
Any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED! FWIW - I'm chalking this up as a bug as it is SO odd and inconsistent, I cannot understand it any other way.

Upload and display Word Document in WD application

Hello,
I have a WD ABAP appl. where the user wants to upload an Word / Excel file (from its own local drive).
The document shall be saved in SAP and it shall also be possible to display the document later in the WD application.
I implemented the UI element upload in the view, to determine the path of the document.
For the display implemented the UI element Office control.
1. When i browse the document, the properties data, filename and mime type are filled into the bound context elements of the upload UI.
2. The property datasource of the UI office control I bound to the same context element, that is also bound to the property data of the upload UI.
The office control opens a word document, but the document is empty.
Is it possible that the document is not uploaded correct?

You can use the fileupload and filedownload uielements.
Check these links:
[File Upload|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/b3/be7941601b1d09e10000000a155106/content.htm]

When you upload a file and save in SAP, are you saving it as xstring.
If yes follow these steps for filedownload.
Follow these steps for file download:
1 Create FileDownload uielement in your View
2.Create an Attribute of type xstring.
3.Bind this attribute to the data property of your Filedownload uielement.
4. during fileuplaod as you are saving the document in xstring format, fetch the same from your database table and pass the value to filedownload i.e set the attribute bound to data property of filedownload uielement with the xstring content.
