Brainlitter - Inside the mind of Sean Wallbridge

Only took about a decade but Acrobat 10 has some SharePoint integration now. To be fair, Acrobat 10 has been out for a while, since the beginning of the year, so I’m pretty late commenting on it.  But my friend Tom pointed out this video that highlights the document library integration and I have had …

*squeal*. Shaw guy is here installing my new Gateway and 3 portals (1 per TV). I’m also upgrading to their 50MB plan (100mb, pishaw, don’t need THAT yet), from Extreme. (Note, I started this blog post a week ago last Friday and finished it tonight. All this in an effort to match what Telus has …

The Problem A customer was experiencing strange ‘access denied’ errors when attempting to their home page (http://portal.somewhere.com/). It appeared very random in nature and we were very confident that permissions were not the issue.

Here’s another one for the books.   Problem Are you missing some of the Social Collaboration Web Parts? For example, following a SharePoint 2010 upgrade, I was expecting to find the Note Board, Organization Browser, Site Users, Tag Cloud and User Tasks and instead, was only able to pick 2 of them (Site Users and …

So this was an interesting one. First off, curses to the third party vendor who will remain nameless for requiring that we access their database on a sub site creation (ya, I followed their instructions to a tee, they need to fix their product…).
