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.

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:

Add a custom page and style to a SharePoint-hosted SharePoint Add-in
Use the App Catalog to make custom business apps available for your SharePoint Online environment
Hope this helps
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.
I have a site template called test1.stp. I have create a new web application and when creating a site collection, it is not showing the option for 'Custom tab' to select the template in web application in sharepoint 2007.
But it is available in sharepoint 2010. How to do it?
Is it the template for 2007 or 2010? It seems it is the template created from SharePoint 2010 site, so it will work only on 2010 site.
Hallo,
i need to create a feature for the Central Administration in SharePoint 2010, but i do not know how to do that. I have found websites like SharePoint Tip #26. Do you know “How to create Central Administration feature”? or SharePoint Central Administration Feature, but they refer to SharePoint 2007 and not to SharePoint 2010.
Are there any websites, books, etc. that teach how to create a Central Administration feature in SharePoint 2010 ?
Thanks!
Creating Central Admin pages in SharePoint 2010 works identical to 2007. The main difference is that the IDs for the menu locations (Where the link will be located in central admin) is completely different.
Have a look at my series about porting a 2007 SharePoint app to 2010. It deals with this topic.
You you can just activate any your features in central admin manually if you like. (If you have deployed your solution also to that web application)
And would that AutoActivateInCentralAdmin be deprecated in 2010?
