About the annotations tab. You might have used "Look & Feel > Page

> Document metadata visibility > Show document annotations". That

there only for backwards compatibility reasons and should not be used unless you have a custom annotations class that is different from XWiki.XWikiComment. If you don't have a custom annotation class, make

to leave it set to "No" as default.

First of all, to make sure the annotations application is loaded properly and working, you need to see the "Annotations" button on the right side of "Edit", "Export" and "More Actions":

If that does not show up, then there is a problem with the extension's JSX not loading up. You might need to resave the page "AnnotationCode.Script" **with Programming Rights** (generally, as the main wiki's Admin).
