I have got a live testing version of a SharePoint 2010 based room & reservations bookings template (which I promise I will one day finish!). Randomly, users were getting an error on their screens though. Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation-compatible HTML

Could Not Open file.doc from SharePoint Server 2010
I have found a couple of solutions to this on the web, but nothing like this. We have SharePoint Server 2010 and Office 2010. I was browsing to a file located on My Site, but other documents . Excel or Word would open and then i would be told: Could not open filename.doc You would

Combining SharePoint 2010 and Windows Media Services
This may already be covered elsewhere, but I am writing it up anyway. We use SharePoint 2010. We also have a lot of video content, shared amongst many staff, of which presently there are multiple copies of the content scattered around the network.

SharePoint 2010 User Profile Synchronization
Just found two guides, which between them have saved our SharePoint farm from the scrapheap. The first – and most important for this: http://www.harbar.net/articles/sp2010ups.aspx A great resource – detailed, and very nearly worked. However, because we were not starting with a fresh install, as it suggests, I am guessing there were some remnants left over

Installing SharePoint 2010 on a DC
A disclaimer fist: I am in no way advocating the installation of SharePoint 2010 on a DC in a production environment. This information should only be used to set up SharePoint in a lab environment. Microsoft do not support the installation of SQL Server on a DC, which is why the Standalone option is not
