Create Standard Folder

This seems like it should be easy, but I can't seem to get Automator to do it.
I have a standard folder structure for each of my projects which consists of Main Folder containing numerous folders within other folders.
Each of my projects has a unique three letter name, (eg: ABC).
I have set up the standard file as a template and named each folder contained within commencing with the letters "NNN".
What I want to do is create a copy the template file including all of the files within it and rename all of the files by replacing the "NNN" with the unique three letter name, eg: ABC.
Creating a copy of the Folder is simple enough.
I have tried using the "Get Folder Contents" action to select the all of the folders within the template so that they can be Renamed, but it doesn't seem to select folders - only files.
Is this right?
Does anyone know how to do this?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

How would I go about doing this without Visual Studio? Is that possible? Need to create Folder templates.
Every "new folder" created should have nested folders already included.
Company Name (New Folder 1)
Company Documents (1.01)
Tax Documents (1.02)
Bank Statements (1.03)
Extreme novice, please give as much details as possible! I'm trying to implement SP 2013 without all the 2013 software (Visual Studios, SharePoint Designer, etc.)
Thank you!

How to create a standards folder

I'd like to create a standards folder to appear every time I open up FCP or start a new project. We have 4 or 5 pretty standard graphic and short Quicktime files for intros and outros, watermarks, etc, for nearly every project we do. Rather then dragging each one from my external drive into the new project, I'd like them to be there each time a new project is started. How can I do this?
I've searched here and on LAFCPUG and the COW to help out, I've muddled through FCP's help PDF on my own and I tried creating a folder in the Effects tab in the Browser then dragging the files I need into the folder from a previous project. The graphic and Quicktime files don't appear.
Where am I screwing up or what am I not doing?
Cheers,
D

why couldn't I just create a bin in the Effects tab and add those files there?
Because FCP doesn't work that way. What you are talking about would require getting into the programming of the NLE.
No NLE I know of does what you ask. For that reason.

Can't create new folder to Applications in standard account

Hi.
As I have two accounts one admin account and other standard account and last time it didn’t work in both.
So I just restored factory settings like described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3910
This fixed the problem.
Now again I can't create new folder to applications but this time it doesn’t work only in my standard account but it does work in admin account.
Previously I downloaded this program to open pdb files :http://www.loghound.com/pordible/
But it didn't work for me so I removed it to Trash. That's when I noticed that the new folder icon in applications isn't active but I can't be sure that this caused it.
I used Disc Utility to repair my macbook pro hard disk using Mac OS X Install DVD but it didn't fix the problem.
Is there any way to fix this problem without restoring factory settings again?

I think either way should work OK - it's less of a security risk to use a standard account for "everything", including web browsing, but I confess I don't myself do this. You would again have to authenticate with an admin username/password if you do download and install from the standard account.
Whichever way you do it, this article may be relevant:
*About file quarantine in Mac OS X v10.5 and v10.6*
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3662
It includes the following:
If you have multiple user accounts on your Mac, the user account that downloaded the file is the only user account that can remove the quarantine attribute to the file. All other user accounts can open the quarantine file, but they will be presented with the quarantine dialog box asking "Are you sure you want to open it?" every time they open the file.

Premiere Elements 4 on Windows 7 shuts down when I try to create disk folder

Loaded Premiere Elements 4 on a new computer running on Windows 7. Previously used this software on Windows XP with no issues other than slow. After creating a project and going to Share/Burn Disc I receive a message that Adobe Premiere Elements.exe has stopped working.

Dolly Jeane
Are you getting any message about MPEG2 Activation?
What are you trying to do....burn to folder Folder (4.7 GB) or burn to disc? There seems to be a conflict between your thread title "create disk folder" and body of reply "going to Share/Burn Disc".
I have Premiere Elements 4 on Windows 7 64 bit, and it has been running OK for Share/Disc/DVD disc with the standard or widescreen presets.
Are you having problems with the burn to folder as well as burn to disc? If you have not tried burn to folder, please try that and let us know how that works.
Also, please tell us what the burn dialog shows in its Quality area for Space Required and Bitrate (with check mark next to Fit Contents to Available Space.
Thanks.

How to: Create a folder directly under the KM content 'Root' directory

I need to create a new folder directly under the 'root' directory of the KM content...
If I go to the KM root directory and click on any of the folders in it, I can create new folders.
For example: clicking on the 'documents' folder. Opening it, I can create new folders by clicking on 'Folder' --> 'New' --> 'Folder'.
However, when I am in the root directory itself, the only option under 'Folder' is 'Clipboard'.
How can I create a new folder under the Root? Am I missing a role?
Cheers,
Edwin.

You cannot create a folder under root directory
all the folders that you are seeing under root are KM Repositories.
You need to create a repository and then in that you can create a folder structure.
As an example Documetns is a standard SAP KM repository. You can also create your own repository under
system admin-> system configuraiton->KM->CM-> Repository Managers
There you can get options of creating the repositories
Hope it is clear
also check the below thread that will help you

I am trying to install software and am getting the following prompt.
"Installation Failed, the installer cant create the folder "var/folders/sq/2fzf3s_d2bzb21159nbwkb2r0000gn/T//install.3732dq0ogT.
How do I repair this

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line on this page to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Creating a folder on an SMB share using a Mac

Hi everyone,
This is more of a question than a problem I'm trying to solve, really. Though the answer might help me better explain the issue to our security team.
Our environment has multiple Windows file servers, both 2003 and 2008. If one of these SMB shares is accessed from a Mac and the user creates a folder, will the ACLs on the share that are set to cascade actually cascade to this newly created folder? We've had issues in the past where ACLs that are supposedly set to cascade on a shared folder are not present on sub-folders created from Macs.
Next question: if the share resides on a netapp device, do the same rules apply? The Macs are still connecting to these shared folders using the SMB protocol.
All Macs are bound to our 2008 AD domain and use network accounts with local homefolders. The issue seems to happen when one or both of the following things happen:
1. A Mac user copies/creates a folder on a Netapp share and for some reason it doesn’t inherit rights correctly
2. We move the folder from one share on an actual Windows server to the Netapp and it doesn’t take permissions correctly.
Please let me know if you need any other information.

Let's put it this way: I'm asking on a Mac site because the people on non-windows support sites are WAAAAY more interested in talking about problems and solutions involving things other than Windows.
I'm fairly certain that the windows servers ARE respecting their own inheritance rules, barring any major bugs and the like which someone may know about...
The isue isn't with Macs moving shares to a netapp, it's with a share being moved to a NetApp that has folders created by a Mac. Talking with our security team further, it seems the problem may be limited to shares resident on a NetApp or moved from a Windows server to a NetApp.
I was primarily asking to see if anyone knew of any issues with these particular situations or had experienced something similar and had dug into it any deeper with F5 (NetApp vendor).

I am trying to create a folder and save it onto my desktop but apparently I do not have permission to do so. How can I change this?

I am trying to figure out how to create a folder on my desktop. For some reason, my desktop folder is no longer available and whenever I try to set one up, an alert states that I do not have permission to create one. I don't know what to do.

I think you need to repair user directory permissions. Follow these instructions:

LR 4 & 4.1 can't create new folder manually during photo import

Windows 64, i7, 12GB RAM
I don't seem able to create a new folder manually on photo import. This still works fine on the same PC with LR3.6. Anyone else seeing this? Thanks.

I've sometimes found the 'Make New Folder' option to be a bit hit and miss on Win7....so I generally avoid it. In your case, wouldn't it be easier to have Lightroom create the folder for you by setting up your Destination panel as follows:
Obviously the selected target parent folder in your case would be "Photos Working Folders", use "Organize: Into One Folder", tick the Into Subfolder box and enter the name of the sub-folder you want, e.g. raw0015. As you can see, if the sub-folder doesn't yet exist, Lightroom then shows you that it will be creating it for you.

I keep getting this error in Dreamweaver when I am trying to upload my website? Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? here is the error message: /html - error occurred - Unable to create remote folder /html. Access denied. The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem. Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured. File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed. Files with errors: 1 /html

Nobody can tell you anything without knowing exact site and server specs, but I would suspect that naming the folder "html" wasn't the brightest of ideas, since that's usually a default (invisible) folder name existing somewhere on the server and the user not having privileges to overwrite it.

Hello All,
we have created shared folder on multiple client machine in domain environment on different 2 OS like-XP,Vista, etc.
from some day's When we facing problem when we are access from host name that shared folder is accessible but same time same computer when we are trying to access the share folder with IP it asking for credentials i have type again and again
correct credential but unable to access that. If i re-share the folder then we are access it but when we are restarted the system then same problem is occurring.
I have checked IP,DNS,Gateway and more each & everything is well.
Pls suggest us.
Pankaj Kumar

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the same shared folder can be accessed by name, but can’t be accessed be IP address and asks for credentials.
Please try to enable the option below on the device which has shared folder:
Besides, check the Advanced Shring settings of shared folder and confrim that if there is any limitation settings.

Eve Wang
