SharePoint Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for SharePoint enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.

A while ago, we disabled MySites on our SP2010 farm, so when you clicked on a user's name you viewed their profile page instead of their MySite.

We also had several users who had incomplete information synced over from Active Directory. While researching how to resync the information, I came across the Set-SPUser powershell command. I ran the following command:

Set-SPUser -Web http://hostname/site -Identity User/ToResync -SyncFromAD

And that worked to sync over the missing data, but now when you click on that user's name (and only the resync'ed user) you get forwarded to a non-existant MySite (/my/Person.aspx - 404 Error).

I can't figure out how to disable this action. Does anyone know:

  • Why/how Set-SPUser modifies an account to start pointing to MySites?
  • How to disable this action for re-synced accounts?

Thanks.
