Removing yourself from Visual Studio Team Services Accounts - tfs

On my visualstudio.com dashboard it says I am a member to a Team Service Account. How can I remove myself? The project is long done and I don't want to see that anymore. I am not the owner and cannot contact him.

This feature is now available in VSTS (now Azure DevOps Services). Login to one of your VSTS Account go to "My Profile". (top right corner) Then you can leave VSTS Accounts where your Account is a member.

No, only account owner or administrator (in Project Collection Administrators group, Admin page > Security > Project Collection Administrators) can add or delete the account.

I want to invite the member to team on tfs but getting error 'No identities found'

I am getting error "No identities found" when inserting member to my team. I've verified the email address is correct. Why am I seeing this text? How can i fix this?
why cannot found?
You have to use an Active Directory account for on-premise TFS -- you can't provide a hotmail account.
According to your screenshot, you are working on VSTS, you could double confirm this-- sever url should like https://xxx.visualstudio.com.
And you want to login VSTS with an non Microsoft email, you should pay attention to below:
Sign up for Visual Studio Team Services with a work or school account
Control access to Visual Studio Team Services the same way you do with
Microsoft services like Office 365 and Azure. When you sign up with a
work or school account, your Visual Studio Team Services account is
connected to your organization's directory (tenant) in Azure Active
Directory (Azure AD). You can then use the same username and password
as other Microsoft services, like #fabrikam.com. Azure AD helps you
enforce policies around accessing your team's critical resources and
key assets.

Finally, just follow the details steps in this tutorial to add users to a team project.

Leave from a repository in Visual Studio Team Services

I was invited to a project on Visual Studio Team Services (previously Visual Studio Online) and I accepted. But now, I want to leave the project and I can't find the option to do that.
Since I'm not an administrator, I can't just delete the project/account, and the owner is no longer active so he can't remove me. The project is now linked to my account and I just want to leave.
Usually delete users from the owner's Visual Studio Team Services account is the simplest solution in your scenario.
Since the owner is no longer active, you or others in thie project team could try to change the account ower. If no one have enough permission, you may have to contact Team service support.
You must have at least Basic access, not Stakeholder, and Team
Services project collection administrator or account owner
permissions. If no one has these permissions, contact Team Services
Support.

Use non Microsoft account for signing up on TFS

I just signed up on TFS for a free account and now I want to invite a colleage in my company. I want to invite him using his company email instead of his microsoft email account. How can I do that? I tried to add him using his company account but when he gets an email for joining the TFS, the login page only allows to use Microsoft account.
According to your description with a free account(Microsoft Account).I'm wondering if you are using VSTS. TFS on-premises will use the domain account to login in TFS, not Microsoft Account.
If you want to login VSTS with your company account.

"Project Collection Service Account" was by default not available few days before and today available for new VSO accounts

When I created a new VSO account few days back then "Project Collection Service Account" was not available by default in the DefaultCollection group
but when today I created another new VSO account It was available by default, was it some random/expected behavior or was actually removed and then added again.
Were you the account owner of the other account? It may be that you did not have permission or that there was a temporary glitch.
That group is status there on every VSO and TFS account.

Access a team project portal

I want to allow some users to access a team project portal, so I give them read permission in sharepoint manage centre. But, I found that these accounts can access team project portal only on service, when logged in client, they're forbided.
How could I do it?
I found the default account of vs2010 is server\administrator, so I gave the account some permission, then it's ok.
