Visual upgrade error in SharePoint 2010

I got following error when I made a visual upgrade: "One or more field types are not installed properly." (in German: Mindestens ein Feld ist nicht richtig installiert. Wechseln Sie zur Listeneinstellungsseite, um diese Felder zu löschen.) The error occurs due to a problem in the hidden relationshiplist. The entries are not updated properly. See  Problems with visual upgrade . The solution for this problem is easy: Install the newest Cumulatives Updates.

I got the following error as I tried to run a console application to get data from SharePoint 2010: the web application at ... could not be found. verify that you have typed the url correctly. if the url should be serving existing content, the system administrator may need to add a new request url mapping to the intended application. The problem is that the default settings for a console project are .Net Framework 4 and Platform target X86. Change these settings to .Net Framework 3.5 and x64 and everthing will work fine.

jQuery and SharePoint 2010 conflict

When you try to use jQuery with SharePoint 2010 you could get problems in some browser like IE. This is caused because of conflicts with the Microsoft JavaScript selector "$", which is the same variable as the jQuery selector. To avoid conflicts you can easily use the noConflict   method of jQuery and change the selector for jQuery. var $j = jQuery.noConflict(); $j(document).ready( function() { $j("#content").addClass("..."); }); For more information see  jQuery.noConflict .
