Missing asset library ? - Solution is here!

If you are missing asset library on your SharePoint 2010 site then you have reach to the destination because this article will give you the resolution! 

Why I am writing this article? Why i have selected "Asset Library" Only? - So many questions but answer is very simple: As i handles SharePoint support so i need to look so many SharePoint tickets on daily basis. Today's article is from one of those tickets!

Problem description: One of the business owners has opened a ticket by mentioning "the asset library is missing on his SharePoint site"

Error Message: NA as this is based on missing functionality so no break fixing here :)

  

Resolution:  

1.   Open the SharePoint site

2.   Site Actions

3.   Site Settings

4.   Site Collection Administration

5.   Site Collection Features

6.   SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure

7.   Activate

8.   Once the feature will be activate then simply go to the "View All Site Content" page -> Create -> Library -> You will see the asset library listed there!

Cool, isn’t it? :) Sometimes resolutions are very simple to implement. Only reason to share this article is because of two reasons - first is I like 'Knowledge sharing' and second save your time and frustration too!

SharePoint Online Office Integration

SharePoint Online works with familiar Office applications. You can easily create Office documents and save directly to SharePoint Online, or you can coauthor documents with Microsoft Office Web Apps. Access important documents offline or from mobile devices and set document-level permissions to help protect sensitive content. With one click you can communicate in real-time with colleagues, customers, and partners from within SharePoint sites.

Some highlights of the new functionality in Microsoft Office 2010 that interoperate with SharePoint Online include:

·         Backstage View: The Microsoft Office Backstage™ view allows users to manage their documents and related data—they can create, save, and send documents; inspect documents for hidden metadata or personal information; set options such as turning on or off AutoComplete suggestions; and more.

·         PowerPoint Broadcasting: Presenters can broadcast their slide shows to people in other locations, whether or not they have PowerPoint installed.

·         Document Co-Authoring: With new co-authoring capabilities, multiple users can edit the same document, at the same time, even if they are in different locations. Users can even communicate as they work, directly from within the desktop application.

·         Outlook Alerts: Users can stay updated on changes to documents and list items on their SharePoint site by receiving notifications of changes as alerts and Really Simple Syndication (RSS).

·         Using SharePoint Workspace to Manage Documents Offline: Users can synchronize SharePoint 2010 libraries and lists to their computers with just a few clicks. They can easily update documents and lists offline, and be confident that everything will automatically synchronize to the server when they are back online.

SharePoint Online

SharePoint Online delivers SharePoint as a cloud service. It helps businesses create sites to share documents and insights and enable collaboration between colleagues, partners, and customers. People can also customize these capabilities to address specific business needs. This means that people can share ideas and expertise and find the information they want—all without the need to set up SharePoint in their organization’s data center.
