RESOLUTION

Issues that this hotfix package fixes

Consider the following scenario:
- You move a user account from an organizational unit (OU) to another OU in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).
- You perform a full synchronization job with AD DS in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010.
- You run the My Site Cleanup job in SharePoint Server 2010.
- You visit the My Sitepage by using the user account that you moved.
- You click the My Content link on the My Site page.
In this scenario, the My Content link is broken. Additionally, you receive the following error message:

Your personal site cannot be created because a site already exists with your username. Contact your site administrator for more details.
Consider the following scenario:
- You set the time zone as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time in SharePoint Server 2010.
- You add a key filter that is based on the Date Time field in a document library.
- You set the key filter to the date when a document was uploaded.
- You search for the document.
In this scenario, the document is not displayed in the search results. This symptom occurs because the key filter does not function correctly.
When you try to edit projection rules in Forefront Identity Manager (FIM), the ProjectionMapping.Deserialize method throws a NullReferenceException exception in SharePoint Server 2010.
Consider the following scenario. A user object is mistakenly created as a contact object in AD DS. You fix the problem in AD DS, and then you perform a synchronization job with AD DS in SharePoint Server 2010. In this scenario, the user object is still a contact object.
