When i try to sync SharePoint document library with new OneDrive client it is not working it is still connecting to the old OneDrive client.
We have installed the new OneDrive client but still SharePoint looking for old client.
For Online SharePoint there is an option in the admin center --> Start the new client.
But for On-Premises SharePoint where we can set this up?
Is it possible to sync SharePoint 2016 On- Premesis with new OneDrive?
SharePoint On-Premises 2016 how i can sync document libraries with new one drive client?

There were several improvements and fixes introduced in the latest PU (public update) to SharePoint 2016 on-premises that include OneDrive APIs and SharePoint framework (SPx) new features and enhancements. If possible, try to update/upgrade first, then determine implementation feasibility. [March 2018 latest updates]

I have TFS 2015 Update 3 configured with SharePoint 2013 integration. I am planning to upgrade to TFS 2018 in new hardware, which does not support SharePoint integration.
According to MS documents I should upgrade and disable the SharePoint integration post upgrade.
In my case I am upgrading and moving to new hardware at the same time. When I am moving to a new set of hardware, I do not want to bring the OLD SharePoint along.
So before even upgrading to TFS 2018 I want to decouple SharePoint sites from the existing TFS 2015 Update 3 configuration.
Is there a way to achieve this? or my approach is wrong?
If you don't need SharePoint anymore, you could remove SharePoint extension in your TFS 2015 by going to TFS Administration Console, click SharePoint Web Applications, click Modify against your server connection and choose Remove.
If you still need TFS SharePoint sites, you should follow the document you mentioned to disable SharePoint integration.
It's suggested have a full backup of your database, and do a dryrun upgrade before using in production environment.
Problem summary:
I have just built a new TFS 2013 environment for my organization. On my first attempt\test creating a new team project using Visual Studio 2013, I receive the following error at the final stage (Finish button):
"TF218017: A SharePoint site could not be created for use as the team project portal. The following error ocured: Server was unable to process request. ---> The user does not exist or is not unique.---> The user does not exist or is not unique."
I have found several other posts with folks encountering this same error but the proposed solution seems to always be to change the authentication mode in SharePoint to classic which is not available in SharePoint 2013.
The error message implies that this is permissions related. However, it is a little baffling due the fact that when I created a new TFS Project collection using the TFS Admin console it created a new site collection in SharePoint with no issues. I don't understand how my permissions would allow me to create a site collection but not place sites under the site collection.
Here are some details about my setup:
TFS 2013 running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise
SharePoint 2013 Foundation (separate server within same domain as TFS
server)
TFS Service account is a Site collection admin on the SharePoint site
collection
My AD account is a Site Collection admin on the SharePoint site
Collection
TFS Service account is a Farm Admin in SharePoint
My AD account is a Farm Admin in SharePoint
The TFS2013 Server is also a Farm Admin in SharePoint
No problems were encountered during installation of TFS 2013
TFS Server is used solely for TFS - nothing else is hosted here.
TFS Extensions For SharePoint have been installed on all servers in
the SharePoint 2013 Farm
TFS Server fully updated as of 1/17/2014
workstation fully updated as of 1/17/2014
Details on what I have attempted/researched so far:
Confirmed with my networking staff that there are no firewall\blocked ports
issues between TFS Server and SharePoint Servers
For the time period in which I was trying to create the new team
project there are no errors\warnings in the event viewer on my local
machine, SharePoint servers, or the TFS Server
When running Fiddler on the TFS server while trying to create the new
Team Project - I am seeing no traffic at all between the TFS server
and the SharePoint server.
my workstation has no open connections to any of the servers in question when trying to create the Team project
Cleared cache on my workstation at: C:\Users\username(Team Explorer user name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\4.0\Cache and C:\Users\username(Team Explorer user name)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache
Verified nothing in cache on TFS Server at: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Team Foundation\Web Access\Cache_v12.0
Performed IIS reset on TFS Server
Re-start on TFS Server
Team Foundation Server Best Practices Analyzer (it says "SharePoint products is not installed", I'm suspecting this is because SharePoint is installed on another server)
Installed Visual Studio 2013 Update 1.
I apologize if this is in bad form but I have also posted this on the msdn forum: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/0758f52d-bf03-44e4-96aa-b60468395914/tf218017-cannot-create-sharepoint-2013-site-from-tfs-2013?forum=tfsgeneral
I am reaching the bounds of my skill set on this one. Any help\ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Update:
Well, unfortunately I had to break down and call tech support from an un-named large tech company for assistance on this. Some changes were made to our SharePoint environment in the process which coincided with the SharePoint farm "going down". I am not sure if the problem on the farm was a coincidence or related to my changes but the end result is that my SharePoint people are now skeptical of my TFS integration etc... so I was forced to do a default install of SharePoint on the TFS box. I will leave this post up for others with similar issues to discuss unless that is in bad form. Thanks to all who tried to help with this.
Here are some additional items I would check:
Make sure you start VS 2013 elevated (Right-click when opening and choose 'Run As Administrator') when creating a team project.
If possible, see what happens if you try from a different computer or the server itself using Team Explorer.
Ensure that the user that you are attempting to create the team project with has enough permissions in SharePoint (you can make the account a site collection admin on the site collection in question).
The user should be a TFS Server Administrator or Team Project Collection Administrator.
Make sure that user account has Content Manager rights in the related Reporting Services folder as well, just in case.
Go to the your SharePoint site collection and attempt to create a site in it manually as the account that you are trying to create the Team Project with; when you perform this, make sure you create it with one of the team site templates that TFS installed (like the Agile or CMMI); If you encounter errors this way it may help you narrow down the problem.
Don't forget to review the event logs on the machines involved.
Okay, I finally go to take another crack at this against my SharePoint enterprise environment and got it to work: The key was to simply remove Anonymous Authentication from the SharePoint web application and it worked!
Access the SharePoint web site collection (for example server/site/DefaultCollection) and add your user or group on Site Collection Administrator.
I've noticed Microsoft has released a new version of Office Web Apps Server 2013, which is a standalone product now.
I'm looking for an engine that I can convert Word/Excel and PowerPoint documents into web-friendly versions (HTML5) for an application I've built that uploads these documents to S3 and I thought Office Web Apps Server 2013 standalone would work.
I don't want to use Google Docs, but rather use a solution that I'm hosting myself.
Reading the Office Web Apps Server documentation, it doesn't specify whether or not I need to have a SharePoint server license. I've tried deploying Office Web Apps Server on a Windows 2012 server on Microsoft Azure, and while the software installs, it is unable to render any documents that I'm pointing to it from an external URL (a publicly accessible S3 bucket).
Does anyone know the particular requirements of Office Web Apps Server 2013 to work properly? The website does state that it can be used to view documents from an external URL which is how I'm trying to use it. But since its a new product, there isn't that much information I was able to find on it other than Microsoft's deployment instructions.
I am using a sharepoint Workspace between different people, so I'm basicaly syncing a folder between pc's. Now my question is if any of you know how to sync between pc's and a folder on a sharepoint site. I cannot seem to figure this out!
thank you for your help!
You need to create a document library on a SharePoint site and then give permissions (contribute or higher) to everyone who wants to share the files/folder. Once it's done, ask your users to navigate to the library on the SharePoint site and click on the "Sync to SharePoint Workspace" under library tab.
Alternatively, Once you are done assigning permissions to the document library (or just a folder in it), users can directly add the document library from the workspace quick launch for Sharing.
I suppose for your purpose you should use oneDrive instead of SharePoint workspace. Pay attention that oneDrive is available in office 2013 or office 365. In 2010 version it's named SkyDrive!

I am looking to migrate some databases out of Visual Source Safe (VSS) and into Team Foundation Server (TFS). I know I am able to migrate from VSS to SVN, and then from SVN to TFS using a few tools that I have found (either free or purchased). The aim is to get the source code into TFS and then integrate the project with SharePoint so that various documents can be accessed from there.
How easy is it to set up TFS to integrate with SharePoint? What do I need to do?
What documents/files can/will be added to SharePoint? Does TFS choose for me or can I select what I want to appear in SharePoint?
Any examples or information on how TFS integrates with SharePoint would be appriciated.
The instances are separate. The files stored in SharePoint are not in the version control library and vice-versa. There is a web interface to the source control library available outside of SharePoint.
Each Team Project in TFS has an associated SharePoint portal. What we do is version control all of our software in TFS, and store all of our documentation in the SharePoint portal that corresponds to the team project. We made sure to turn version control on within SharePoint so we can retrieve previous versions.
On the odd occasion that we do need to version control documentation alongside the source code (for audit reasons), we will store that in a documentation folder within TFS.
