Create Collection in specific folder

I have a software deployment runbook that creates a collection if needed. The Create Collection activity seems to only allow for creating collections in the root folder. I have tried adding the folder path before the collection with name like AAA:\<object
type>\folder\sub-folder\subfolder but Orchestrator seems to add extra slashes like AAA:\\<object type>\\folder\\sub-folder\\subfolder
which breaks it.
I am also playing with just running a Move-CMObject script after the Create Collection. But since you cannot have the SCCM console and PowerShell module on a server running the IP...thats just a huge pain in the butt.
Can anyone offer advice on creating collections in a specific folder?
Thanks.

Hello,
Based on my research, it seems that create collection and move it to specified folder is the only solution.
Is remoting an option for you? You can remote to SCCM server, and import PowerShell module. So you can run PowerShell to create collection and move the specified folder.

How to create file in specific folder...

Hi developers,
I am new to java. I would like to create file in some folder. But i am fail to create it. Can any body help me please..
This is my code. It creates folder well...But file doesn't create.
import java.io.*;
public class file1
     public static void main(String ar[])
          File f = new File("c:\\ram");
          f.mkdirs();
          String pat = f.getAbsolutePath();
          File ffs = new File("c:\\ram.txt");
          System.out.println(pat);
}With Regards
sure...:)-

Also, it's not clear where you want the file.
You're making a directory C :\ram, but then you're talking about a file ram.txt that's right in C:
Also, you can use / instead of doubling up the \ and it wil get converted properly.
If I wanted to create a file C:\ram\ram.txt I'd do this:
File parentDir = new File("C:/ram");
File file = new File(parentDir, "ram.txt");
parentDir.mkdirs();
file.createNewFile();

Creating publishing page in specific folder and with custom page layout using JSOM

Hi!
I have a site collection under my root, in which I have a page library with a folder inside. I want to create a publishing page inside the folder using JSOM. The API provides the following information on the three possible ways of how you can create a publishing
page.
PublishingPageInformation with all defaults.
PublishingPageInformation.Name and PublishingPageInformation.PageLayoutListItem.
PublishingPageInformation.Name, PublishingPageInformation.PageLayoutListItem and PublishingPageInformation.Folder.
Source - SP.Publishing.PublishingPageInformation Properties (sp.publishing)
Since I want to create the page in a specific folder in the page library, I have to go for the last option.
I have a function call chain that look as follows:
getLanguageID(webUrl, languageID)
.then(function(resolveVal) {
language = resolveVal;
return checkPageExist();
.then(getEditorialNewsFolderJSOM)
.then(getAssociatedPageLayoutListItem)
.then(addPublishingPage)
The first two methods,
getEditorialNewsFolderJSOM
getAssociatedPageLayoutListItem
fetches the required data as SP.Folder- and SP.ListItem-objects.
The problem occurs when
addPublishingPage
is called. This method, in turns calls this function.
var pageInfo = new SP.Publishing.PublishingPageInformation();
pageInfo.set_name(publishPage.title);
pageInfo.set_pageLayoutListItem(pageLayoutListItem);
pageInfo.set_folder(editorialNewsFolder);
pageCreationContext.newPage = pubWeb.addPublishingPage(pageInfo);
clientContext.load(pageCreationContext.newPage);
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(function() {
publishPage.isPageCheckOut = true;
resolve();
}, function(error) {
reject(precio.intranet.resource.errCreateContent_addPublishPage);
The error happens when this function is called with the page information object.
SP.Publishing.PublishingWeb.addPublishingPage(pageInformation)
Error:
Cannot read property '$2t_0' of undefined
and it happens in SP.Runtime.js.
I've tried this
sample code from the MSDN-team, and added the pagelayout and folder properties, but it renders the same error.
Creating a page directly in the page library with a blank SP.PublishingPageInformation object works perfectly fine!
What could possibly be wrong? The error isn't something that I can debug myself since it happens in SP.Runtime.js, and the documentation for this is very sparse!
Any help on how to resolve this issue would be helpful!

How to create a dynamic link in a Form to link to a specific FOLDER

Hello,
I have created a reports of all employees of my department.
This reports shows me the empno and ename
When I clicked on a empno ( for example empno = 1 ) then then I got a MASTER DETAIL FORM about that employee(empno = 1) .
Who he or she is and which course he or she had followed.
I want create a dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM which shows me directly the folder of that employee ( in this example folder 1 ).
If I clickt on the report with all employees of my department on an other number ( for example empno = 3333333) then if I click on the dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM I want to see the folder of employee 3333333 !!! You know what I mean ?
What I want to know is, how to create a dynamic link that shows me directly a folder which is dependent on which empno I had clicked on in the report ( report with employee numbers and ename )
Is there any way to pass some parameters into a link to a Folder ? Is this possible in Portal ? Does anyone know how to do this, or do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot !!!
Chu Lam

Hi Chetan,
I am glad that someone had replied on my question.
I will explain it to you again.
I have created a report that shows me all employees. If I click on a employee number then I get an MASTER DETAIL FORM on my screen with all the information(where he works now and which number I have to dial ifhow can I reach him by telephone) of that employee on which number I clicked on.
I really like this mechanism. (You click on a number and the information that you see in the next screen is dependent of the number you clicked on ! )I have created all this. It works fine.
What I want is to expand this example.
Every employee has a FOLDER (yes, those ones in Content Area ) which they can insert text or image into that folder. The folder name is just the employee number. ( employee with employee number 3303, he owns a folder which is named 3303 and an employee with empno 9999, he or she owns a folder with the name 9999. )
Every employee can tell more about himself in that FOLDER by iserting text and images. For example : What he likes, pictures of his vacation, something like this.
What I want is this :
If I click on the first report,which provides me all employees on screen, on a employee number 3303 then I get a Master Detail Form on my screen with all information about that employee with employee number 3303. And I want in this MASTER DETAIL FORM to create a link that shows me directly the FOLDER of that employee ( 3303), so I can learn more about employee with employee number 3303. But I don't know how to create this link.
That link had to be dependent on the employee number. The difficult thing about this link is that this link had to be dynamic.
I hope this will make it clear to you :
(report all employees:)
empno ename
3301 john smith
3302 peter clark
3303 wilson jones
If I click on a empno ( for example 3303) then I get a MASTER DETAIL FORM which provides me information.
(MASTER DETAIL FORM )
EMPNO 3303
ENAME wilson jones
department New York
mobile number 98908763
Company tel. no day
AOL 097485838 monday till wednesday
Oracle 04848584333 thursday and friday
LINK
(what I want is to create a link here )
If I click on LINK in this MASTER DETAIL FORM then I want to link to the FOLDER of this employee ! ( In this example it is FOLDER 3303.
BUT IF I CLICKED ON THE FIRST REPORT ON A DIFFERENT NUMBER ( FOR EXAMPLE 3301) THEN IF I CLICK ON LINK IN THE MASTER DETAIL FORM THEN I HAVE TO LINKED TO FOLDER 3301.
I just want to know how to make a link like this ( create a dynamic link to a specific folder ).
Thanks in Advance.

How to add already imported photos from a specific folder (on a hard drive) into a LR collection?

Sorry if this is obvious, but I can't for the life of me figure it out…
I'm using Lightroom to organize images for a book project, importing each folder of images one at a time and placing them in collections to match the client's file structure. E.g.
* Book project
** Landscapes
** MISC
** Still life
** Travel
So far I have been importing each folder, then dragging all the images from the "Previous import" option into a new LR collection. Unfortunately, I imported a folder (MISC) and then imported another (Still life) without copying the MISC images into a new collection. Now I can't figure out how to get the images from MISC into their own LR collection. I can't re-import them because they're already in the LR library. I don't think I can remove and re-import them either…
Is there any way to do this without me going through my library and finding each individual image and moving it manually?? There are a lot of images so I fear that would take days!
Thanks!

I'm curious why you need to create collections that seem to have identical contents to a folder that you imported (or did I misunderstand you completely?)
There's no need to create a collection that has the identical contents to a folder, just use the folder! Creating a collection in this case is extra work that produces no benefit.
And in case I did misunderstand you
Is there any way to do this without me going through my library and finding each individual image and moving it manually?? There are a lot of images so I fear that would take days!
Go to the MISC folder in the Lightroom Folder Panel, select this folder, then select all photos (Ctrl/Cmd-A) and then drag them to the collection

How to create Smart Folder that limits search to a specific folder or drive

I've been playing with Smart Folders in Leopard 10.5.5. I would like to create a smart folder that limit the search to only a specific folder where I keep all of my work related files. I cannot figure a way how to do this.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Bud James

1.) Performed Archive and Install. This did not correct the problem.
2.) Performed clean install to new hard drive. This corrected the problem.
3.) Performed a user migration (to the fresh new OS and new HD) using the migration utility and the problem returned.
So it seems pretty clear that there is something related to my user identity that is causing the problem. I called Apple tech support but they were not able to resolve the problem.
Sure, I can just create a new user and spend the next week or so reinstalling a bunch of software...but certainly based on the description of the problem (and the trouble shooting that I have already performed) someone at Apple should be able to pinpoint what files I need to delete or replace to correct this problem.

When i create a specific folder to Photos , i copy The Photos from The general folder TO The new folder. Why they stay In The new folhear and on The general One??? can i change this???

Is it possible when i copy Photos from The câmera roll TO a specific folder that The Photos appear Only on The new Folder?

No, the photo in the new folder is only a pointer to the actual photo in the camera roll. There is only one copy of the photo.

How to Open a Specific Folder in the Finder via Shortcut Key

I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, so sorry for not finding it...
Is it possible to assign a shortcut key to open a specific folder with Automator or AppleScript? There are 4-5 commonly used folders buried 10-11 levels deep on a server and I'd love to have a shortcut key to open those particular folders in the Finder.
Could you give me some assistance?
Thanks!

QuickKeys may work, or you can look on http://www.versiontracker.com or http://www.macupdate.com for other alternatives.
Another option is to create aliases to those folders and store the aliases in a local folder which you can place on your Dock, the Finder window sidebar or toolbar.

Hello,
We have found fallowing issue in our Outlook/Exchange environment:
If we setup rules in outlook 2010/2013 to move emails from specific sender to specific folder emails are moved to that folders but also they appear in a "Recover deleted Items" folder. if we move emails manually no issues. If we recover them they
will appear double in the specific folder.
We are using two Exchange 2013 Servers in DAG with latest cumulative updates. CAS/MB roles combined.
Any Ideas? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
When creating this inbox rule to move emails from specific sender to specific folder emails, please make sure the following field is unchecked.

Delete emails from a specific folder in Exchange 2010 SP1

Hi all,
Since Exchange 2010 SP1 does not have “-DeleteContent” parameter in mailboxexportrequest any more, how do we delete emails from a specific folder of a user mailbox? (Personal folder, not default folders).
Please note that the ASQ for searchquery in Search-Mailbox does not support “folder”.
If going for retention policy, is there a way to tag a retention policy to a specific folder of a user mailbox without user attention?
William Yang
William Yang

Hi William,
Yes, you may not run the Search-Mailbox to delete items in specific folder at the moment. Hope it will be back soon.
You can create a Personal tag, users can apply personal tags to folders they create. But users have to select related Retention Policy using Outlook or OWA manually.
For more information, please see:

Problem creating items in a folder owned by another user

Hi
Iam getting an exception when i try to create a folder owned (or shall i say) created by another user.Let me explain what iam doing :
1. I have created a folder "INPRISE" under "/home".I have
created an ACL "MyAcl" having group INPRISEGROUP
as the ACE having all permissions.I have set the ACL "MyAcl" on the folder "INPRISE".
2. I have created two users i1 and i2
and placed them in the group INPRISEGROUP .Both these users have a link under thei home folder to "INPRISE" folder(achieved by using and addItem()).
3. I could successfully login as i1 and create a folder "WebApps" under "INPRISE" and upload a document "A.txt" under "WebApps".
4.But when i log in as "i2" and try to create a document "B.txt" under "WebApps" which was created by user "i1" i get the following exception :

Note : since iam still experimenting with the code please ignore any irrelevant/wrong commenting.Iam using method "CreateDealFolder()" to create the folder "INPRISE" and "CreateUser()" to create users "i1","i2"

Iam not able to set the main folder's (i.e INPRISE) acl (MyAcl) on the subfolder "MyFolder" because the owner of MyAcl is "system" whereas the owner of MyFolder is user "i1" .Which is the best way of solving these ownership issue which iam running into ? I want to be able to create different folders ,assign a group of uers to each of the folders who can create as well as modify,delete each other's folders/documents (as i have mentioned in my first post in this thread) ?
thanks

Creating file in a folder

There doesn't seem to be any way to right-click and create a text/ open office file in a folder. At the moment, I am launching the application (e.g. Text edit), saving my document in the desktop and then drag and drop the document to the specific folder.
Is there any easier way?
Thanks.

Open the AppleScript Editor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and paste in the following:
tell application "Finder"
make file in (get folder of window 1)
end tell
Save it as an application and put it in the Dock or the Finder's toolbar. This will only work with TextEdit as written, but if you have a blank document in any format presaved elsewhere, it can be copied there.
