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!

Background:-
We have got a SharePoint 2016 On-Premise and we have setup MySites (which has OneDrive as a feature).
What are we after:-
Like in Internet Explorer users can open up Windows Explorer via a Library, we are looking at a similar option on MS Edge. Some articles suggest we can achieve it via OneDrive. Can someone throw some light on this as to how we can get a similar functionality?
Please note that most articles refer to Microsoft 365 and we are not yet there.
Thanks,
Sam

I am developing with Word Web AddIn by Office.js. Now I want to publish it to my on-premises environment.
After check Deploy and publish your Office Add-in, it seems only SharePoint catalog supports SharePoint on-premises. But for this docuemnt, it shared the steps for Sharepoint Online instead of premises.
Interesting. It seems that when Microsoft renamed "apps for Office" and "apps for SharePoint" to "Office Add-ins" and "SharePoint Add-ins", the UI of SharePoint Central Administration was not changed. But whoever wrote that second article that you linked to thought that it had been changed. (Or maybe it was, but your SharePoint on-premise doesn't have an up-to-date build.) I think that when you get to step 2 of the article you linked to, you will find an "Apps" on the left side of the page instead of a "Add-ins". So just follow the directions in that article but in your mind replace "Add-in" with "App" in all the steps.
Another possibility is this article I found. Try using this, if the suggestion above doesn't work: Manage the App Catalog in SharePoint Server.
Is there any tool or service provided by Google by which i can completely migrate my sharepoint site to google site ?
If it is not possible, then can i move folders directory from sharepoint to google drive ?
You could use the open with Explorer option to do this manually https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2629108. Or sync the library first, and copy the documents.
We maintain a local SharePoint Intranet here at work. We have made the switch to Office 365 for our email services and are in the process of transitioning most of our local intranet Sharepoint site to the cloud service. Right now we use Costpoint to post employee pay stubs (pdf's) to a document library. The private document library permissions are set up as this:
Private Folder:Read permissions for all
Employee Folder > Paystubs Folder: "That" Employee access and "Utility" account access only.
The Utility account is the account Costpoint uses to post the pdf files to the private document libraries. At this point, instead of going in and trying to modify Costpoint, we want to continue posting the pdf's to the local intranet library, and then copy them to the SharePoint Online site with the same file structure and permissions in place.
What would be the best way to go about this. Powershell script? Or is there a tool that we can use to accomplish this? Would the script have to be run manually or can we run it automatically when the folders are updated with new information?
I have created a Team Project in TFS 2010 and the Project Portal in SharePoint 2010.
Now I need to create a WebPart to deploy in the SharePoint Site (Project portal) that connects to the TFS to get some information.
Where I can get the TFS Url that is associated with the Project Portal in SharePoint?
Any clues?
Thanks in advance.
The url of TFS is not stored in the Project Portal. It is the other way round. In TFS the WSS url is stored.
TfsRedirect can be used to determine the TFS Web Access URL from within SharePoint. Although it's not exactly what you want, and it's a little hacky - you can pass the parameter tf:Test=1 to get the TFS team project that is associated with the site that your web part is being displayed on.
See John Socha-Leialoha's blog post on Using TfsRedirect to Display Reports in TFS 2010 Dashboards
What is TfsRedirect?
Here’s the scenario. You had TFS create a dashboard site in SharePoint
when you created your team project (or you added it later as described
here). There are several items on this dashboard that point to other
locations that are potentially on other servers:
Team Web Access
Process Guidance
Reports shown on the dashboard pages
TFS itself know where to find these assets. And the locations can
change if, for example, the TFS administrator moves the reports to a
different server.
Rather than hard-code the locations of these assets into the
dashboard, the TFS team created a web page called TfsRedirect.aspx
that knows where these different assets are located, and will redirect
to that page.
Shouldn't you be able to go in to TFS2010 -> Team Explorer -> Right-Click on your Team Project -> Portal Settings?
