Using TFS I'm used to this view in the "Team Explorer - Home"
But now, when pressing the "Home" button, nothing appears:
I haven't found any settings which collapses this view. Any suggestions?
You need to be connected to a Team Project. In the first screenshot you're connected to Fabrikam Data Project, but the second screenshot it doesn't look like you have an actual project selected. If you click the Title ("Home") and go to Select Team Projects you can pick the Team Project + TFS Server you want to connect to. Then when you come back to Home you should see all the options.
That looks like 2 different versions of Visual Studio. Make sure you're on the most up-to-date version (2013.4)

I am working on a site with a publishing profile that pushes the site to a remote host. After publishing I get a new browser window that navigates to the newly published site. This is ok in most circumstances but I am in a situation where I can't allow that last step to occur, I simply want to tell visual studio not to show me the website after publishing. I've checked all the publishing settings that I can find but haven't found any option to control this. Anyone have any ideas?
Does this information from Visual Studio 2013 still hold true for 2015?

I can't check it myself, but essentially it says that in the 'connection' tab of the deploy dialog, the Destination URL setting isn't required. When Visual Studio finishes deploying the application, it automatically opens your default browser to this URL. If you don't want the browser to open automatically after deployment, leave this box blank.
Do you want to try that?
Update for Visual Studio 2019:
In the "Publish" page, look for "Configuration". On the right side, click the Pencil Icon.
In the next dialog, open the "Connection" tab, and empty the field "Destination URL".
I know this is a simple question. But I do not think it is easy to find this answer online. For anyone who has used TFS (Team Foundation Server) on a Microsoft Visual Studio this must be the first thing they learn. But I have poked around with Visual Studio and TFS and I do not find the solution intuitive. Here is the question:
How do I bring up an earlier version of my project and/or solution in TFS?
If you go to the Source Control window and right click on the folder at the root of your project you should see "Get Specific" or "Source Control | Get Specific". If you select this you will be presented with a dialog box that will ask you which version you want to get. This can be bases on Date, Lables, or changesets.
When I open the Source Control Explorer in VS2012 I can only see what files I have checked out. If my co-worker checks out a file I cannot see a red check mark, it does not say "edit" under the Pending Changes column, there is no name listed under the User column. There is no indication that the file is checked out at all.
Same thing in reverse. He cannot see which files I have checked out. So far we experimented with only 2 Team Projects. One was a Web Site project the other a Web Services (asmx) project.
I found this Visual Studio 2012 not integrating properly with TFS explorer
When I go to File|Source Control|Advanced I do not see a "Change Source Control" option.
Suggestions?
How embarrassing...we just figured it out.
The Team Project allows multiple check-outs, so it makes sense that we were both able to check out the file(s), the issue was that we couldn't see which files the other had checked out.
Part of my issue was I had "Team Project 1" open in my Team Explorer, but a solution from "Team Project 2" open in Visual Studio. So I think that's why I couldn't see the "Change Source Control" option. As soon as I changed the Team Project in Team Explorer I was able to see the "Change Source Control" option (File|Source Control|Advanced|Change Source Control).
Once I opened the "Change Source Control" screen I saw that my solution and project were unbound. I bound them. Then I went to my co-worker's machine, his were also unbound. I bound them. We are able to see each other's check-outs in Source Control Explorer now.
We have created the Visual Studio Team Services account.
We have created some Project as testing and now we want to delete it. After searching on some forums, it was mentioned that we can delete it in Team Explorer. We are using Visual Studio 2012 and we are not able to Delete it and the Delete button is disabled.
I was told that I am the administrator in Team Services and I should be able to delete it.
So, I would like to know how I could delete these test projects. Thanks.
To remove a project from Visual Studio Team Services, navigate to the http://YourAccount.VisualStudio.com > Control Panel (Gear Icon) > Overview
Under the "Projects" area, when you mouse over a project "..." will appear to the right of the project name, click there then select "Delete". A popup will appear asking you to type the name of the project to confirm its deletion.
You are targeting the source control in you example. When u target the Team Explorer u can choose "Connect to Team project"
After that u can rightclick your project and choose delete
Please follow the steps below. As this is my first reply I was informed I can not use images to describe the step.
Control Panel => View the collection administration page => click on the little black arrow beside the project name and select delete.
I hope that helps.
Regards
That doesn't delete it from the cloud.
I used the below url to delete it from the cloud.

When I start Visual Studio 2012 RC, the Start page has these items:
Connect to TFS...
New Project...
Open Project...
I don't use TFS. I use Git. Is there a way I can remove that "Connect to TFS" so I don't have to see it every time I run VS 2012?
You might be able to go to Tool\Options, select the Source Control item in the left hand side, and change the Current source control plug-in to "None".
It appears this is a design decision--a way to bring light to Express-version features. Someone has logged this as a Connect issue where you can vote on it: http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/750913/start-page-shows-connect-to-tfs-server
You can create a Custom Start Page.
