    Hello, I have created an intranet site for our organisation with about 5 site pages. On one site page I was able to add the promoted links app but on another page it doesn't appear in my add an app list. I have followed your instructions above and the Team Collaboration Lists is activated so not sure why it is not displaying in my add an app list. Please help? Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I had the same issue, I only ran this command and reactivated everything about team collaboration feauture:Enable-SPFeature –identity "GUID" -URL http://yoursite where you should use the GUID of feature you want activate instead of "GUID" . You'll find it here C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\FEATURES\TeamCollab\Feature.xmlRegards,
