When i'm trying to create New 'Blank Site' in SharePoint Designer 2013 it tells me
This Web site must be created on a server that is running Microsoft SharePoint Foundation. Please choose another location.
I'm run Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013. Should i also install Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2013 or what?
It sounds like you're pointing your new Blank Site template at a location where SharePoint isn't installed. The best way to test if this is the case would be to first try opening a site, put in the location of your new SharePoint installation and see if it resolves. If not then your problem lays in your SharePoint installation itself and you should review the documentation for that.

actually i tried to migrate lists and document libraries from one site to another site in sharepoint 2013 and migrate sites also from 2010 to sharepoint 2013. But,I want to migrate web application from sharepoint 2013 to sharepoint online.
We are limited to creating Site collections only in SharePoint online. You cannot create/migrate the complete web application to SharePoint online in one go. You would have to migrate either a complete site collection or site level.
I have experience migrating with SharePoint migration tool from Microsoft (which is free software) and it worked well.
However, i would suggest to migrate individual site level as it would be easy to manage. I have tried migrating a site collection which failed after 40% and it was difficult to debug where the error was. I later figured it was the nintex form on a document library that was a culprit.
Good luck with your project!

How to use the SharePoint 2007 site content data in SharePoint 2013 site without migration?
And what is the best practice if a client develop a new site in SharePoint 2013 environment but they want to use the SharePoint 2007 old content data in the new environment?
The answer to that question is not directly. You’ll have to upgrade your content and service applications(if required) through the process to get to 2010 and then to 2013.

On my Visual Studio 2012 software I need to create new web page for my Office 365 SharePoint as a Landing Page for my site. The Page has to contain some logic related to the SharePoint which is to be developed in Visual Studio itself.
The Question is what is the best way to achieve this, what should the project type be (should it be ASP.NET empty Web Application, if so what else would be required to setup) and How to pakage it and deploy on the Cloud (Office 365 account).
You will need to create App(Now called as SharePoint Add-In), then use the app-catalog to deploy and Install app on SharePoint office 365 site.
Below are some reference which will be helpful to you:

We have a SharePoint 2010 farm and a SharePoint 2013 farm.
In one of the List on the SharePoint 2013 farm, when ever a record is created,
we need to copy it to a list on SharePoint 2010 farm.
Can this be done using the 2013 CSOM? Will the 2013 CSOM be able to connect to 2010 List and manipulate it (CRUD operations)
OR
Should I consider creating a Custom Service Application and expose the data stored in 2013 farm for the 2010 farm to consume it?
Thanks in advance
I'm not sure if client object model from 2013 dll will work on SP2010, but you should definitely be able to save an item using listdata.svc REST calls, and then you shouldn't need any custom service application.
We've done from 2007-->2010 (console app) using scom for 2010. The same code run smoothly when we upgraded 2010->2013. So, I guess you won't have any problems.
Hello I am trying to open a SharePoint 2010 Foundation Site (local installed on Windows7 Home Premium) in SharePoint Designer 2010. Nevertheless I get the following error:
"The directory name is invalid".
I already added the site to trusted zone in IE, but that has no effect. I also can't connect SharePoint to SharePoint Workspace.
Thank you!
First, are you using SharePoint Designer 2007 or 2010? You can't use SPD 2007 with SharePoint 2010.
Second, you have to configure your site (via central admin) to allow editing with SPD.
