To get around this I had to use the old "Shift + Right Click" Run As Different User, which isn't quite as convienient.

Sharepoint 2013 - Sign in as Different User has been removed
The ability to sign in as a different user, which was very handy for testing permissions has been removed in Sharepoint 2013.
To get around this I had to use the old "Shift + Right Click" Run As Different User, which isn't quite as convienient.

In Sharepoint 2013 the link to the Recycle Bin is no longer in the quick launch.
To get to the Recycle Bin click on Site Contents and you will then find it in the top right corner.

Sharepoint Infopath Cannot Save The Form
A user complained that they could not save a form to an info path library in Sharepoint 2010. The error that they recived was
"InfoPath cannot save the form. The specified location cannot be accessed. Check that the location you entered is correct and that you have appropiate permissions."
I checked the user's permissions and found no problem but every time he tried to save the form he got the error. He was the only person with the problem and trying it on a different PC didn't solve anything. I checked the library to see if there was a previous file that had not being checked in but there was no sign in there.
Eventually I got him to try saving it with a different name and it worked without any problem. There was no sign of the file with the old name in the recycle bin or anywhere in the library, so it seems like a bug but the workaround was to name the file differently.

Sharepoint 2013 People Picker
The People Picker in Sharepoint 2013 is a bit slicker.
Instead of having to click on search, start entering a name, finding the person and then adding you now just have to start typing the name in the box. As you type a dropdown is created of people who have those letters in their name, which gets filtered as you type. Simply click on the required person from the dropdown to add them.
Click on Show Options and you can then select a group or permission level.
