SharePoint 2010: Why can I see the 'Alert Me' button on the ribbon?

Setting up an Alert in SharePoint is very easy, but not if you cannot find the 'Alert' button.

The button will only be displayed if you have an outgoing SMTP configured.

Go to Central Admin -> System Settings -> Configure outgoing e-mail settings.

Once the SMTP server is configured, the Alert option will appear in the ribbon

SharePoint 2013: Error updating managed account credentials

I encountered the following message when trying to change a password for a managed account: Error deploying administration application pool credentials. Another deployment may be active. An object of the type Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPAdminAppPoolCredentialDeploymentJobDefinition named "job-admin-apppool-change" already exists under the parent Microsoft.SharePoint.Administration.SPTimerService named "SPTimerV4".  Rename your object or delete the existing object. The error message is self explanatory - Rename your object or delete the existing object.  I choose the latter. Powershell to the rescue. $job = Get-SPTimerJob -Identity "job-admin-apppool-change" $job.Delete() Reset the password and all should be good.
