Starting Term Store Management in SharePoint 2010

If you can't get any edit or management popup menus such as add term store term group to show in the SharePoint 2010 Managed Metadata Service application Term Store Management Tool, check that:

• Internet Explorer is started with "Run as administrator"
• You have added your taxonomy managers to the "Term Store Administrators" for the MMS root node

This is required even if you are an administrator of the MMS application itself and you have full control MMS connection permissions.

So then you're ready to realize your ingenious taxonomy for classifying and organizing your knowledge with managed metadata and content types.
