2. Write this at the PowerShell prompt:
1. $passphrase = ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force
2. Input the new desired passphrase and press Enter
3. Write this at the PowerShell prompt:
1. Set-SPPassPhrase -PassPhrase $passphrase -Confirm
4. You will be asked to confirm the passphrase by re-entering it
5. Re-enter the passphrase and press Enter
6. You will be asked if you are sure that you want to perform this action, type Y (for Yes) and hit Enter
7. Your farm passphrase has now been rested :)

SharePoint 2010 Calendar hovers and add new button

When you hover over a day in the SharePoint calendar the “add new” link comes up. This isn’t working “exactly” right. The reason is, if you scroll down on the page and then hover over a calendar item, the “add new” link shows up in the wrong calendar day. It works perfectly fine if you don’t have to scroll down (the issue only happens when you scroll).
