Where is the Server Explorer in Visual Studio 2013?
I try to find it on the "View" menu, but I don't see the "Server Explorer",
is it changed into other name?

I am using visual studio 2010 and connected to TFS. Every time I try to open the visual studio project it prompts the following message.
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Go Online
This solution is offline but its associated Team Foundation Server is available.
Would you like to go online with this solution after it has loaded?
---------------------------
Yes No Help

I have tried the following settings in TFS settings as mentioned here
uncheck "Automatically connect to server on startup"
uncheck "Server is Offline"
I have also tried following solutions

But none of them worked.

Try to right-click on the solution name right at the top of the Solution Explorer and select the Go Online option. Check the following case for more details:

I have Visual Studio 2013 Premium and 2012 Premium installed. I get email notifications for code reviews in TFS. These notifications include a link to open the reviews, with display text "Open Changes and Comments in Visual Studio". The link location starts with
vstfs://codereview/...
When I click the links, the code reviews are opened in Visual Studio 2012.
How can I make Visual Studio 2013 handle the code review email links instead of Visual Studio 2012? I would like for them to be opened in Visual Studio 2013, instead.
Open "default apps" on Window,
Select "Choose default apps by protocol" and scroll until you see "VSTFS"
Select "Microsoft Visual Studio Web Protocol Handler Selector" and test the options.
Open your registry and modify the path to devenv.exe defined in the key HKCR\vstfs\Shell\Open\Command\(Default)
I repaired my Visual Studio 2013 installation and changed all of the filetypes associated with Visual Studio 2012 to be associated with 2013 in the Default Programs tool, and then restarted my PC. The problem is now resolved, but I don't know what fixed it; my guess is the 2013 repair.
is it possible to open 2 team explorer windows in a visual studio?
I want to have the Pending changes and the Work Item windows open in tabs, Like the server explorer and team explorer are opened.
Thank you!
You can't open multiple Team Explorer windows, but in Visual Studio 2013 you can undock the Pending Changes and Builds tabs using the breakout button in the top right. More information here:

What i want to get: after double click on file in Source Control Explorer, connected to TFS, it must be opened in external text editor ( like Notepad++ ).
Problem: 'View with..' menu item is missing, so i don't know how to change default editor to files listed in Source Control Explorer.
Apps installed: Visual Studio 2013 + Team Explorer for Visual Studio 2013 + TFS 2010 on server
I installed the Power Tools...

... and then in my context menu "Advanced" --> "View With" appeared.
I have installed both visual studio 2008 and 2010. When I try to open a visual studio 2008 solution file it opens in visual studio 2010. It does not open in vs 2008.
Select the .sln file in file explorer, right click, select "Open With", select "Visual Studio 2008" or "Visual Studio version Selector".
If it doesn't work, Select the .sln file in file explorer, right click, select "Open With", Select "Choose Default Program" and there you can select Microsoft Visual Studio 2008". It might be hidden if you are OS like vista or Windows 7. There is one line with an arrow to expand all available programs
Hope that helps

Have you tried opening the project from the file->open menu?
