Creating new folder in sharepoint
Hi - I am using Office 2013 and using the "Save as" function in Word want to create a new folder on the SharePoint site. there does not seem to be any way to do this through the "save as" dialog process. The "new folder" option
only seems to be available for saving on the local hard drive. It seems I need to go into file explorer, create a new folder and then go back into Word to save to it.
Thanks - Tim
Hi,
A quick hack for this if you use the same document library over and over is to map a network drive to the library, then when you save to the network drive (and thus the document library) you'll see the new folder option available and working.
A second method, would be to click on the address bar in the save as dialog, remove the "http:" and change "/" to "\". For instance:
http://mysite/personal/iedaddy
would become
\\mysite\personal\iedaddy
and then magically the Organize and New Folder menu bar appears, interestingly this method will also allow you to add new folders even to libaries with the "New Folder" option explicitly turned off.
A similar problem can be found here:

Please help.It happens only on few sub sitesHi V_K04,
You said that it happened only on few sub sites, whether this issue occurred on some subsites, and some subsite worked well.
Please check whether there are some differences between the subsites that worked well and the problematic subsites.
Whether this issue occurred on all libraries and lists on problematic subsites.
Whether there are some customizations in these problematic libraries and lists.
Please create a new library and a new list, test again, compare the result.
BestRegards,

We are trying to create folder & subfolder in a SharePoint document library using SharePoint default(dws) web service. Document library has unique permission as well as item level permission. It was working as expected. Once item count crosses
view threshold limit ( 5000) , create folder web method completes with an error and it creates a folder in SharePoint.

</soap:Envelope>Yes, you're probably hitting the 5000 list item threshold (
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/105937/overcoming-5000-file-document-library-limits ). I assume you can do it via the UI because you're probably logged in as an admin in which case, out of memory, the threshold is 20.000 items. You can extend
this limit, but you probably shouldn't.

Can't create new folder on an external hard drive, and how to transfer files?
Hello everyone,
the non-English speaking videographer I translate for is having problems operating his Premiere CS5 for Mac from an external hard drive. He cannot create new folder on the external hard drive (the "New Folder" button is grayed-out when tries to export media onto the external hard drive) and when he simply tries to create new folder, the "new folder" option isn't available.
He suspects it's because the hard drive was formatted for PC.
Questions:
- should PC-formatting cause that problem?
- what's the proper way to transfer media files from PC-formatted external hard drive to the internal hard drive on Mac?
Would appreciate your advice.
Dimitri VorontzovHe is right on the money
Now, for the sad or FAT part. You need to format the drive as FAT32 to make it work both on PC and MAC but, and that is a big BUT, the max file size of any given file will be 4GB. I haven't treid other formats yet, like the journaled MAC OS extended, but I don't think that would work. We transfer our files through or own gigabit network so I never had to try it, other than FAT32 formatted SDHC cards. -
Create new folder with selected items
I have a bunch of movies that I would like to place into individual folders of the same name (Without the extension name). I wanted to try and create a keyboard command to do this with the selected files, but can't manage to figure out how!
What I did was try to create a new service command in automator, then went to keyboard shortcuts in system preferences to assign a keyboard command to it.
I want to make something that works like control-command-n (to create new folder from selected items), only I want the items to be in individual folders of the same name.
eg.
Files selected such as:
The incredibles.avi
Cinderella.mkv
Dogma.mp4
each moved into individual folders labeled as:
The Incredibles
Cinderella
Dogma
Also, is there a way to change the control-command-n shortcut so it can create a new folder from a single item? It only works when there is more than one file selected.
Thanks so much for any help!I am going to guess that you start off with a single file - what are you doing to generate these files? My *Get Names of Finder Items* action can get a name to use in the *New Folder* action - items passed to the New Folder action will get copied to it, so a little more detail may help in creating the workflow.
The *Dispense Items Incrementally* action can also be used to dole out the items one at a time - knowing what the workflow is doing would help with the use of this action as well. -

Cannot create new folder?
I have just moved to a new hosting and have connected to it
and I can edit files. When I try to add a folder to the remove I'll
get
"An FTP error occured - cannot create new folder .
Access denied. The file may not exist or there could be a
permission problem".
Any idea?Hi,
Did you make any changes before the issue appears?
Before going further, you may try the
system restore to go back to a previous status and check the result.

Access Denied when Exporting, Creating new folder.
My normal workflow on some occasions is that I work on images then making a selection, I will export then to a folder on my desktop. I normally hit the Export and on the pop up I click on create new folder and export the images to the folder.
Since the new update, when I try to create a folder it gives me Access Denied. If I create the folder first, there is no problem.Hi,
I would like to suggest you run the following commands with elevated privilege.
takeown /f {Folder Path}
cacls { Folder Path} /G administrators:F
Note: please replace {Folder Path} with the real folder path.
After that, please try to delete the folder again.
Does it work?

Access Denied for creating new folder
Hi friends,
When i tried to create a new folder under shared folders in catalog as a weblogic user, i couldnt get a option for creating new folder. But i have that option enabled in the My folders area.
Im not sure why the create folder option is not enabled for the weblogic user in the shared folders.
Im on OBIEE 11.1.1.7 and for a workaround i referred the below link
https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2520389
But i followed the steps mentioned in the above link, but not succeeded still facing the same create folder privilege issue under the shared folders for the weblogic user.
Kindly suggest me your approach for solving this issue.
Thanks
Regards,
SaroHari,
Restart the services (weblogic and BI) you should see it I have observed same kind of behavior in 11.1.1.7.0 (Admin tab missing and No Permissions icon for weblogic user) dont know exact reason
Restart is not a solution but will see if you are able to see or not

Can't create new folder in home folder when saving files
In gnome, when I want to save any file in my home folder, and I want to create a new folder in my own home. The new folder appeares for several minutes and then disappears.
If I create new folder in other directory. There is no such problem.
Also I can create new folder in my own home directory in nautilus or by mkdir.
any one can help me.....
Thanks very much....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.

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.
