Sharepoint Sites lost their defined color Themes

Hello All,
i have a MS Office Sharepoint Server 2007 deployed for years now. In the last two days the machine that hosts Sharepoint server had some SW issues and needed FW and Driver updates.
After upgrading the server, i noticed that i couldn't open any of my Sharepoint sites.
i was getting an error : "The website found, but you don't have permision to view it, you have to login" inspite the fact that i'm using the domain administrator account to login to these sites.
After reading many posts about it, i managed to overcome the error and now i have access again to all my sites.
Thing is that all of them returned to the default color theme (a light blue color) and despite the fact that i change it again to the desired Theme i want, they stay on the Default Theme. (i can see in the preview that the Theme is what i want, but when
i hit Apply, nothing happens).
Same thing happens if i open the site through the server itself and login as Domain Administrator.
Does anyone knows what causes this and how to resolve it? it doesn't affect functionality of the sites, but i would like to know how to sovle this.
Thanks,
Elias

Ok, i just soved the issue with the color Themes.
I run the Sharepoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard, as Soni K suggested, and now all sites returned to the colord i've defined for each one of them.
the issue with the Shared Services still stands...
if i try to Browse the Shared Services Site through IIS i get " The website declined to show this webpage"
This site requires you to log in
This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that this program was able to connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage.
Despite the fact that i'm logged in as domain Administrator.

I lost all my color themes in the update from Kuler to Color CC.

When I went to use the Kuler app on my phone, I saw it is now Color CC. All of the color themes are gone! How can I retrieve them? I've logged into my Adobe acct and they are not there. Please help!

Please take a look at these steps below. Let me know if this guidance does not help.
If you have signed in to your Color (aka Kuler) app before, your themes are safe. Most likely, your themes are all synced to the Color service. Here’s how to find them:
Website: navigate to color.adobe.com and sign in. Click on the "My Themes" tab. Your colors should be showing up there. Note, at this moment in time, you cannot save themes from the color.adobe.com website directly to a library. This only works with the iOS application.
iPhone/iPad: if you aren’t seeing your themes, but you are signed in, the problem is most likely solved by switching the library you are using. You can do this by tapping the menu bar at the top of the theme gallery. From here, you will see a menu that allows you to select to either save themes to color.dobe.com or to a CC library. Your old themes are stored in the color.adobe.com option.
Desktop software: (I.e. Photoshop, Illustrator, inDesign) you can always find your colors on the Color Themes panel. This is located in Windows/Extensions/Color Themes for PS and ID. And, Windows/Color Themes for Ai. If you are looking for a color that you saved to a library from the mobile app, you can find this in Window/Library. Note, you must have the most current versions of PS, AI, and ID for this to work.
If you have never signed in to the app before, you themes are not saved. The only option you will have, at this point, is to restore your phone from a back-up via iTunes. Note, we’re working to release a new update that will allow users to carry themes forward to the updated version. And, I’m really sorry about any problems this may have caused. In this case, please send me an email directly and I'll do whatever I can to help you. [email protected]

Struggling to migrate sharepoint sites developed on dev or qa over to production

So, user 1 comes along and wants to put together a new site. He wants to use SharePoint Designer to set up pretty colors, create a new theme and use it, create a series of custom lists, etc.
Meanwhile, on these same machines, there is a variety of InfoPath development occurring by developer 2. The development is going on in a different site collection than user 1 is using.
User 1 gets to the point where he wants to migrate the minty fresh sharepoint site from dev to production.
He creates a template with content.
He copies it over to the production system. When he attempts to use it, he gets an error saying that Feature '{gobblidy gook}' is not found.
We look at features turned on, and the out of the box features are the same.
HOWEVER, the dev system has quite a number of dev instances of the InfoPath apps as they have gone through the "code, test, fix" cycle.
It appears to me that the issue is that the template is listing every one of those InfoPath forms as a requirement.
There's no way that I am interested in broken or incomplete InfoPath features being installed into production.
It appears to me that the user is stuck recreating the dev site on production.
That seems terribly inefficient to me. The entire template concept is pretty screwed up if templates uploaded to one site collection become required in another.
I presume that one or more of us - user 1, developer 2, or myself - is missing some critical bit of information that would make these things work.
Or is this really the kind of limitation by which others using InfoPath are hindered?

Where can I find those best practices?
Before we started using SharePoint, we always had at least dev, qa, and production machines where things being developed would start out and migrate through.
I suspect there would be a lot of resistance to giving all users their own VMs as well as their own SharePoint farms to work under, and I expect that attempting to move InfoPath apps from an individual's environment would have the exact same problem as we
are encountering - a developer wants to iterate through a series of unit testing before they consider an application (ie InfoPath form) stable enough to undergo testing by a group of stakeholders. Thus things created on the dev machine will have dependencies
on "features" (aka the individual test versions of the InfoPath form) that would not be installed on the stakeholder's test machine, and the last stable version on the test machine would have dependencies on versions that would not be promoted to
production.
developing on production has the issue of having to work in parallel with the previous stable version of the application, without causing the users of the stable version issues.

Since updating to version 8.0.1 many websites have lost their identity icon.

In the address bar and Bookmarks a lot of web sites have lost their identity icon in Firefox 8.0.1 (which were there before). Holding the cursor over the icon area brings up a message saying 'this site does not supply identity information'. But this message also comes up when putting the cursor over one ''with'' an icon. Some sites have the icon in Bookmarks but it doesn't show in the address bar. I have found it does not happen on Vista laptop, only on Windows 7 desktop.

Hi. I think there are two different things going on here. The "identify information" message relates to something unrelated to the webicon. From what I can tell it has to do with digital signing. I had to do some browsing before I found a site that actually ''was'' signed: Google. When you go to Google you'll see the site name to the right of the webicon with the url afterward. Holding cursor over it shows google.com's signed by Thawte Consulting. Oddly enough, VeriSign is not...um...verified. The story on this one will be interesting.
As far as the webicon goes, if you provide links to a few sites that don't work I'd be glad to take a look. I haven't had the problem yet on Lion or Win 7 Pro, but that doesn't mean anything. It could be the way the icon is identified or its filetype: .ico and .png files can be used (maybe others) and there are different ways to identify them: link rel="shortcut icon" or "icon" and type="image/x-icon" or "image/png" if a png file's used. Could be 8.01 no longer recognizes one of these or incorrectly stated ones it was OK with in the earlier release. All guesses of course w/o having something to look into.

How to setup three SharePoint sites on one server?

Hello,
How to setup three SharePoint sites on one server? I have three sites like:

And need to have them running up on one server. I recall some changes need to be done to the host file, but not sure. Can you advise on what to change?
Thanks,

Adding Multiple files to many Sharepoint Sites based on the Sites Code (Splitting the data using a code)

Hi,
I'm pretty new to Sharepoint and wanted to ask a question to see if it can actually do what we need it to do.
We would have a top Site within a collection and under this we would have 400 sites for different sections of the business (External) Lots of teams create documents for all these sites and use the Code of the site in each document so we know what business
site its going to. For example 67890_BusinessReportMay.docx We know this document should be heading to site 67890
We have lots of services sending data to these 400 business sites. If we were to do them manually it would take most of our time to go to each site and upload the documents, even if we could do all the sites documents in 1 multiple upload. We still have
to go to each site to do it
Is there an easy answer to this? At present I have folders to match each of the 400 Sharepoint Sites and I use an Integration Services package to move all the documents into these 400 Matching folders. I do this using the Code at the start of each file name.
If it doesn't have a code its put into an error folder and reported back on.
Then I want something to automatically go through each of these folders and load them into the Sharepoint Sites document libraries.
OR
Say you have 600 files all going to the 500 sites on Sharepoint in one folder. The File contains meta data regarding the Sites Code. Using this you can split the files and automatically pull them across to the Sharepoint Sites without having to go
into each Sharepoint Site?
I'm thinking that you cant do this and I'm hoping I'm wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to move the documents to different sites based on the code in the name of the files.
I recommend to create workflow and set the workflow to start when an item is created to achieve this goal.
As there is no built-in action which can move the documents cross site, we need to use the custom activity 'Copy List Item Extended' which need to be downloaded from
http://spdactivities.codeplex.com/.
Please per the steps in the link below to deploy the custom activity to SharePoint:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/82609160-152f-461a-9a19-0e996f5a309b/sharepoint-2010-archiving-the-files-from-one-document-library-to-another-document-library-in
After that, we can create a workflow to meet the need.
Here is the detailed steps to create the workflow:
Create a column in single line of text type(called NO for example) in the library where the documents are uploaded, and input value manually in the column to store the code when uploading the documents. (We can also use workflow to extract the code from
the name of the documents if the codes are always 5 numbers.)
Create a workflow associated with the library and set the workflow to start when an item is created.
Select If current item field equals value, change the settings to be If Current Item: NO equals 67890.
Select Copy List Item Extended, change the settings to be Copy item in Current Item to list at site 67890 URL.
Select Delete Item, change the settings to be Delete Item in Current Item.
Create other conditions from step 3 to step 5 to copy the documents to different sites and delete current documents.
Best regards.
Thanks

Unable to Publish Access database to SharePoint site in 2013

I have a user requesting to publish access (2007/2010) web database into SharePoint 2013. I am able to publish this database on all sites under one site collection (test) but fails on the other site (different site collection). I have compared site collection

Initially it looks it has succeded but then give mesesage

Hi MK,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you published Access database to SharePoint 2013.
Please deactivate SharePoint Server Enterprise Site Collection features at site collection level and deactivate SharePoint Server Enterprise Site features at site level, then activate them again, compare the result.
Per the error message, please type a value in the ‘Name’ filed, then publish the table, compare the result.

User has appropriate permission, still not able to access one of the sharepoint site applications.

Hi,
I have tried all solutions available on internet regarding this problem but none seems to work.
As per one solution I added the user in sharepoint site collection administrator group still no luck!
As per another solution I tried to run “User Profile Service Application Proxy – User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization”
“User Profile Service Application Proxy – User Profile to SharePoint Quick Synchronization”
but they dont run for some reason. Both these jobs are scheduled to run everyday but last time they ran was some date in 2011. When I click on Run Now nothing happens.
I deleted all cache, forms password history everything. Added the site in trusted sites and all. No luck!
User also tried to access the site by logging onto another system but still same issue.
This user recently joined alongwith a few more people. All of them are able to access the site except this particular user. So, a web part or unpublished page cant be the reason, right?
This user is only able to access the home page which is say http://<siteurl:1234> application while the site which this user is not able to access is
http://<siteurl:2345>.
I even tried to give access through sharepoint designer but no luck! Please help!
PS: This may not be relevant but still I'm sharing. Earlier I used to add users in manage user profiles - new profile. But now as soon as the user is added into active directory there profile is getting created automatically. This might be happening due to
active directory and user profile sync but the question is how? Because I dont remember configuring this. And it was not configured earlier too.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that only one user cannot access the site even though he has the right permission.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Check the permission of the user in the site to see if the permission is right.
Is http://<siteurl:2345> a new site collection ? Can the user access other pages except the home page in
http://<siteurl:1234>?
Grant needed permission to the user in the web application to see if the issue still occurs.
Delete the user and re-add the user in AD to see if the issue still occurs.
Check the ULS log for detailed error message.
Best regards.

Trying to access SharePoint Site, Hosted in Azure, from public Internet

I am looking for basic guidance on how to browse a SharePoint 2013 Environment, Hosted in
Azure, from a PC not located on the same network. In other words from an internet connected PC. I believe this was working until some Azure or Windows update took place, and now I can no longer connect to my environment
via SharePoint Designer, IE, or ShareGate migration tool. (I am NOT looking to open up a public facing website with Anonymous access.)
Currently when I try to access http://Server_Name.cloudapp.net I end up looking at a IIS 8 Splash Screen.
There seems to be a combination of settings that need to be in order for this to happen. I believe they fall into the following topics Any help is appreciated.
Azure Settings:
DNS name: SERVER_NAME.cloudapp.net
ENDPOINTS
IIS Settings:
Bindings
DNS Server Settings:
Host A Records
SharePoint Settings:
Alternate Access Mappings
Other:
Hosts File
Windows Server Firewall

Hi,
How did you publish the SharePoint site hosted in Azure to Internet?
I recommend to follow the link below to see if the issue still occurs:
http://thuansoldier.net/?p=4044
As Microsoft Azure changes public virtual IP address every time you turn on your virtual machine, please make sure you check the new address then assign it to SharePoint AAM again.

Is it possible to show a 'My Activity' web part on a SharePoint site if 'My Sites' is not available?

Is it possible to show a 'My Activity' web part on a SharePoint site if 'My Sites' is not available?
For example, say there's a SharePoint installation dedicated to particular (custom) SharePoint site. The users go to the site to carry out their tasks. There's no 'My Site' set up in this installation (and for other reasons I'm told it's not an option).
Is it possible to show a web part here that shows the user's recent activity? The built-in web part for this fails with the error 'Invalid URI: The URI is empty', and the details of it appear to say it's looking for the user's My Site to find out what to show:
SPMicrofeedContext.SetMySiteHostForContext failed System.UriFormatException: Invalid URI: The URI is empty. at System.Uri.CreateThis(String uri, Boolean dontEscape, UriKind uriKind) at Microsoft.Office.Server.Microfeed.SPMicrofeedContext.SetMySiteHostForContext()
So, while I'd be happy to write a web part (or app part) to display the information instead of using the default part, I'm not sure SharePoint is even storing the activity in a way I can access.
Some pages like the following: http://sharepointmystery.com/2012/07/22/activity-feeds-in-sharepoint-2013/ make me think it won't be possible - it says: 'The major change from 2010 is that all the [activity] content is stored in the user’s personal site, not
in a common database.'
Are activity feeds dependent on 'My Sites' or is there a way to access the information when 'My Sites' is not present in the deployment? I can't find a definitive answer in Microsoft's documentation.

To clarify, do you have the User Profile Service (including MySite Host) up and running on this environment? That's subtley different to the full MySite experience which is clearly not applicable...
Interesting question - thanks for that. Until now I didn't realise there was a difference.
The User Profile Service is up and running, but no MySite Host is set. (I don't believe MySite will be available anywhere here. I guess that means there's no valid MySite Host for me to use.)
Many thanks,
Geoff

SP 2010 - Getting "An unexpected error has occurred. " message when accessing Sharepoint site after windows update - Windows 7 Home Premium

Everything went fine and was able to see the new sharepoint site after completing configuration wizard. SP2010 Central Admin also worked fine.
However, after windows update, sharepoint site is not working. I was able to see the site working for more than a day before windows update. SP2010 Central Admin is still working. Executed "PSCONFIG" after
update but still no good.
I saw a warning "The Security Token Service is not available" in Central Admin and did some research to fix the issue but nothing worked.
