Russianسؤال
I am due to go live with a SharePoint 2013 custom Intranet to 2000 users. The business has asked that I auto populate the MySite profiles. Can this be done?
Short of impersonating users using LDAP I have no idea how to do this. PowerShell Script maybe?
المحلول
We developed a powershell social module for our 2013 deployment that would allow us to do several things including pre-provision personal site collections and have people following the CEO by default. Let me know if you have any questions on how to use this. And to place credit correctly, this was written mostly by a teammate of mine and not by myself (posted with his permission).

There are a couple potential issues with user profiles and active directory related to missing information. One is just a configuration issue. Another has to do with how users are considered active in SharePoint.
Import or Sync
First, I recommend that you check your connection to Active Directory. In SharePoint 2013, you have two options.
Active Directory Import
User Profile Sync
If you're using Active Directory Import, it's pretty straight forward. Spencer Harbar has a good explanation of it here: First Look: SharePoint Server 2013 Active Directory Import
If you're going the User Profile Sync route, there's a good chance the Service may not be correctly configured. I recommend reading Spencer Harbar's excellent article: Rational Guide to implementing SharePoint Server 2010 User Profile Synchronization
Active Users
The other question has to deal with a hidden list and when users are added to it. In some cases, users are not visible in the hidden list until they log in. This question and answer provide some detail on that situation.
If this hidden user list is the issue you're running into, I would go back and study up on the import or sync articles I link to above.
