Ted, Can you clarify this post? This is what I think you are doing... From the Map 1. You find a layer on your local server and "Use as basemap". Everything is working fine at this point. 2. Then you add a "real basemap". How are you doing this? Are you choosing from the Basemap button on the toolbar? If so, you've just replaced your custom basemap with this new basemap. So you won't see your data anymore. 3. Then you add your layer over the basemap. Is your layer a dynamic map service or cached? What basemap are you trying to display it over? Are your services available for me to try? I am not able to reproduce the problem you are seeing. If you could help me narrow down the problem, that would be great. Thanks, Mike 1.  Yes everything is ok. 2.  I am using the Basemap button and was using the Bing Aerial. 3.  Service is Dynamic and not exposed publicly, Bing Aerial Note that yes if I use basemap it should override my originally set basemap, but see my secondary issue: Secondary issue: I then go to Gallery via ArcGIS Home Dropdown, and then go back to My Map, I now see two instances of My data, so there appears to be a refresh issue, and going out of My Map to some other page allow me to zoom back into the data. If I do not do this extra step, I am unable to zoom into my data after the second time I add Data, so at least there is a known workaround.  So, even though using one of your basemaps, should override my setting for my basemap, after the refresh my service shows up twice in the Explorer TOC. I will submit a little video showing my workflow. ... View more

Ahh Mike, good to hear from you, been a long time, so you are on this team, cool stuff. Actually, yes I should be clearer. So, I am using Explorer Online. I can create a folder from the ribbon, and then in the TOC, I can right click, rename, so this is what I am referring to from my post. ... View more

In the connection alias there are two text boxes, my first assumption was that If I type an Alias, I would see the Name Change as well, but I have to type the name twice, not sure why I would need an Alias and a Name, so I am a bit confused. ... View more
