Can't create a "simple" group/course - and no upload

Hi all,
I'm quite new to this task of managing iTunesU for my institution (ICTP, www.ictp.it), and we just got admitted to the iTunesU platform since few days, so please bear with my poor experience (but I'm carefully reading the guides provided by Apple).
Now... I've had no problem in creating/editing a few test pages/groups/courses, but I'm not able at all to create a "simple" group course, the edit menu only lead me to the two options: "smart" and "feed". And I cannot find the tool menu item to do the "Upload and Manage Files" (I guess it doesn't appear because there are no simple groups, the only ones that can accept manual uploads, am I right?).
Just to explain better: of course I'll eventually implement a transfer script to upload our videos (I'm working on re-encoding some thousands hours of lectures...), but for now I would like to make some preliminary tests, and upload manually a few videos. What am I doing wrong?
Is it possible that maybe our approval is still pending, and I'm not allowed to upload anything? But I can edit the site (but not publish it).
I tried both interfaces, the iTunes.app native and the web one (the "iTunesU Public Site Management" on phobos.apple.com):
the former is more complete but is missing upload option and "simple" group course creation, while the latter gives me only tools to edit the graphic appearance of the main page (banner, styles, etc...).
thank you for any help, it will be appreciated very much!
Carlo,
Trieste (Italy)

I think I've found the answer by myself in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2018158?threadID=2018158&tstart=0
Unfortunately, it's not the answer I was hoping for... apparently the option to store contents in Apple's servers isn't available anymore for newcomers to iTunesU.
Now I have to manage a way to do local storage and RSS feeds, new challenge!
Hope this may help others,
Carlo.

    Can I create a Captivate 6 course that plays offline and synchs with our LMS?

    Hi there,
    Welcome to Adobe Community.
    Unfortunately, I do not seem to remember any possible way to have a course offline and then synch it with the LMS.
    If you do not have an internet connection and within a local network then you could try internal server reporting.
    The below thread could be of some help:

  • Can I create a site in Illustrator and then import it into Muse?

    Can I create a site in Illustrator and then import it into Muse? If not, why not?

    No, you can't and it kinda defeats the purpose of Muse altogether. Thats like saying, "Can I use Muse to create vector graphics for designing logos?" Or, even simpler " Can I use this hammer to unscrew this picture hook in my wall?"
    Muse would import that AI file as an image only. So, you would have one big picture and no functionality to any buttons, menus etc.
    I would suggest that you try downloading the trial version of Muse. If you could/would design a site in AI ( despite it being an unsuitable tool ) you will find Muse just as easy to use. If you are proficiant in Illustrator or InDesign, Muse's interface is very familiar and uses similar techniques.

  • How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login?

    How can I deploy EFS using Group Policy and Active Directory with a goal to automatically encrypt computers for ALL users who login? (NOT an option for me to use BitLocker)
    I was asked to deploy EFS to encrypt the user my documents folder and profile on all of the users laptops. The laptops are in common areas (board meeting rooms, etc) and security of files is a must.
    I successfully created a recovery certificate in AD. I created an OU and setup an EFS policy and users can now login and select to encrypt their own files. The issue is that management would like to have automaticy Encrypt ALL users my documents AUTOMATICALLY
    when a user login.
    Can this be done?
    Please help

  • I have multiple devices (imacs, lap tops and ipads) all connected to a NAS server.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife, and each have our own apple ID, and Itunes accounts, but all share the same media on NAS drives?

    I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive.  Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives?  So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?

    You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs.  (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.)  This will prevent you from ending up with merged data.  You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

    This should help you out after  you have created the new user account. You are trying to make it much more complex than it needs to be. Just follow the directions in:

  • How can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my apps?

    I'm sharing an iCloud and iTunes account and want to have my own. Can I create a new iCloud account and transfer my contact list? If I keep the existing iTunes account with the new iCloud acct, can I reload my apps without purchasing them again? I understand I can create a new iTunes acct afterwards.

    OK, so you can create a separate Apple ID for yourself that you use for your Messages, iCloud, Mail, FaceTime, etc. and keep the one that you have your Apps on as your iTunes "Family" Account.
    Before you set up your new Apple ID, be sure to delete your iCloud account from your device: Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the account. Save your Contacts on your phone so you can merge them with your new iCloud account. Your notes, and Photos will still be on your old iCloud account, but if you want to keep any of your photos on your new iCloud account, it would be a good idea to import all of your photos to your computer first, so you can selectively download them to your device. (Note: only your Photo Stream will go away when you delete your iCloud account. Your Camera Roll will stay in place. It's just a good idea to back up that Camera Roll to a computer or to your new iCloud account immediately once you have set it up.
    You then would set up a brand new Apple ID for you under Manage your Apple ID: Apple - My Apple ID
    Once you get it set up, go into your devices and sign off the following:
    Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, click on your "Family" Apple ID and Sign Out
    Settings>Facetime, click on your Apple ID and sign out
    You will leave your "Familiy" Apple/iTunes ID signed on on the iTunes & App Store, becasuse you willl continue to share your iTunes account with the family. Here is a little more info about using two Apple IDs:
    Using your Apple ID for Apple services
    Once you have your new ID set up, go back into Messages and FaceTime and sign back in with your new ID
    Also, go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your new ID, and be sure to "Merge" your contacts into your new iCloud account.
    Post back with any questions!

  • Can I creat an new iCloud account and make it the primary one for my backups and buy extra iCloud storage for it?  Thank you

    Can I creat an new iCloud account and make it the primary one for my backups and buy extra iCloud storage for it?  Thank you

    Hey Hindfromlondon,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.  Since you are posting here, I take it you already have an Apple ID.  
    You can setup that Apple ID to work with iCloud.  See:
    Set up your Apple ID for iCloud and iTunes - Apple Support
    And you usually want to stick with one Apple ID as having multiples can cause confusion (especially with purchases).
    Frequently asked questions about Apple ID - Apple Support
    What is an Apple ID?
    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. You don't have to create a new account for each service—just use your Apple ID.
    For a complete list of all of the places you can use an Apple ID, see Where do I use an Apple ID.
    and further down:
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs. 
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.
    Regarding iCloud storage check out

    I encourage you to read all about it as there's lots of information out there.

  • Can I create a form in muse and have it work with a different hosting service?

    I contacted a hosting service that I need to upload the site I built in MUSE to. (Hosting has already been purchased). I asked OMNIS:
    I want to create a form with Muse and then upload my site to OMNIS, not muse, the forms will display as I designed them, but they will not  function. I have someone to help me who is experienced in working with code. I can use Muse to export my site and then open the files in an HTML editor. "Update the source code of the form to make it compatible with the form processing technology used by your hosting provider (OMNIS) before you upload the files to their server." Can you help me with this? Do I need to get a script or something from you?
    OMNIS ASKED me:
    What are MUSE's site requirements?
    I will be building other sites and my clients may want to have the site hosted elsewhere. Can you give me the easiest way to deal with forms?

    Thank you for getting back to me Morgan.
    I read in another forum:
    There's a handy piece of software from CoffeeCup Software called "Web Form Builder". It's pretty affordable and easy to use and it can be hosted on the server of your choice provided that server uses an up-to-date PHP script.
    This is what I have been using....but I would rather not have to deal with a third party form builder at all.
    Do you reccommend this?

  • Can I create a "stage" in Animate and use it in Muse to create a responsive site?

    I want to use Muse to build my site and Animate for some elements. I need a responsive site. Muse does not do that but Animate does. That is crazy! How can I combine them? There has got to be a way. Someone smarter than I has figured it out I am sure, I am hoping they chime in.
    Can I create the "stage" in Animate and use it in Muse?

    You are probably right but I was looking for the ease in creating only one and letting it do the work.
    Now that I think about it....my site will have video embedded and a link for Ustream. That won't work on a mobile device if it is part of a responsive design will it?
    Oh, there is soooo much to all of this!
    Newbie anxiety!
    This is why I chose Muse and Animate, I am too new to code it on my own.

    thx.
