Sharepoint 2013: IE Compatibility issues (it renders really badly)

I was trying to get my masterpage to render properly in IE (aka mission impossible) and, after a stack of trying, came up with the following changes that fixed my problems:

1. In the masterpage, add
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"/>

This will cause Sharepoint to use the latest version of IE installed on the host machine. I tried forcing the version (IE=7), but that did not seem to give the required results.

2. In the main CSS file, add

HTML {
    font-size: 100%;
    white-space:normal;
}

#contentRow{
white-space:normal;
}

.ms-core-pageTitle{
font-size:inherit;
}

My CSS was shocking; the font sizes were terrible and the alignment was like my kids bedrooms - very messy. Setting the white-space and font-size resolved my issues.

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.
