SharePoint 101 for the Busy Project Manager
Here’s my SharePoint 101 for the Busy Project Manager Presentation, for anyone looking for a quick peek. This is an embedded Microsoft Office presentation, powered by Office Online.
Read onNintex for the Win – Wiki Page Templating
If you know me at all, by now you’ll know I’m a big fan of SharePoint and Nintex. I’m also a fan of leveraging existing investments in technology and tools and repurposing them. For me, Nintex remains the ITTT (if this, then that) of the SharePoint World. The other day, a customer came to me …
Read onBuh-Bye Citrix, hello again QuickBooks on my iPad
Today I can happily announce that we retired our Citrix XenApp Terminal Server in favour of a simplified, all in, Windows Server 2012 R2 RDWeb Server solution. Previously, I was pretty excited about using Citrix and the Citrix Receiver app to view Remote Desktop connections and published apps on my iPad and other mobile devices. …
Read onSlideShare results for the year
Like the WordPress Metrics, SlideShare (www.slideshare.net) is now sharing metrics/reports about our submissions. Interesting stuff (I think). See itgroove’s SlideShare content for the year: http://www.slideshare.net/yearinreview/itgrooveservices/5EQtAg
Read onNote: Auditing Settings between SharePoint 2013 on Prem and Office 365 Differ
This has been something I have been meaning to point out for a little while and it came up in conversation today which prompted me to take the 10 minutes to share it. There are some limitations to emerging Cloud technologies, some which may never get addressed. In this case, I’m not sure if auditing …
Read onGroovy. Brainlitter Annual Report
Nope. This blog isn’t powered by SharePoint. I made that decision a few years ago for various reasons I’ve already covered in the past. I use WordPress and one of the reasons I roll with it for a public facing blog site is that there are some nifty 3rd party options available. One of them …
Read onChanging the desktop behaviour of Adobe PDF handling with SharePoint 2013
While this won’t be the first post out there, I’m seeking to make it the simplest as I found a lot of garbage, a lot of typos and a lot of confusing suggestions – particularly this one from the horse’s mouth (Adobe) which makes it anything but quick and easy to get rolling… Reference: …
Read onWhen following a document leads to heartache
Ok, here’s one I ran into today… What Users are trying to Follow Documents in a SharePoint 2013 Site Collection. (To learn all about following documents, go here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/office365-sharepoint-online-enterprise-help/follow-documents-to-track-them-HA102785928.aspx). The problem is, our particular web application is not linked to the User Profile Service Application (removed from that proxy) because we are using this web …
Read onMore Mobile and Offline capabilities for Nintex Mobile
Update December 9, 2013: Nintex tipped me off that Forms 2010 version 1.4.1 & Forms 2013 version 2.2.1 were released yesterday Sweet. It’s not even Christmas yet and some of the stuff I’ve been waiting for Santa Nintex to deliver under the tree are starting to arrive. Nintex Mobile version 2.0 was released on December …
Read onClove Oil. Like flipping a switch for dry socket pain
Yep, this isn’t a post about SharePoint. But as I (again) ran into someone suffering from extreme pain from dry socket after having their wisdom teeth out, it occurred to me that if the dental surgeons and dentists aren’t telling you how to relieve pain (that for me lasted 3 weeks several years ago), that …
