Drop Folder Privileges

I have three Mac's running 10.5.5 using Time Capsule. I am trying to set up sharing privileges. Eash machine can see the others however when I click on Drop Box I get an error message that reads I do not have sufficient privileges. I have enables sharing in System Preferences. I also followed the instructions from an article on discussion regarding sharing with Time Capsule but it referenced some options under Get Info - "Show" which isn't an option I see. Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks - I know understand the Drop Box. What is the simplest way to share files? By using the Public Folder the viewer needs to still choose the user and then their Public Folder. Is there a way to share with all three users one public folder? Also, the Shared option under Users confuses me - what is that for? I'm sorry to be such a simpleton...

Create Drop Folder With Drop Only

Mini Server, Mid 2011, 2 GHz, Intel Core i7, OSX 10.9.4
I have my server with a static ip and would like to create a password protected folder with drop only features. I tried Pure FTP software for this, what info do I need to give my client to access this folder? I tried the static ip number from outside my network, no good. Any helpful hints are appreciated.
Thanks

Linc, Thanks for the reply. I am attempting to make a drop folder on my server for an outside person to drop only. I am not sure exactly how best to do this. New to the server world and this type of thing. I attempted to use Pure FTP, however, I am unable to access the fold from outside my net. Looking for the correct address to access this from outside, works fine using my ip address from inside the net. I attempted using my server software, but get lost on exactly what information to use to login to this folder.

How to get a build definition with Online TFS and a shared drop folder

Hi,
We VSTS Premium license. We use online TFS as source control.
I want to make a build definition. Use Team Explorer for the same.
I get error message when I enter a shared path as my build drop location.
Please find below the image showing the difference. Radio box highlighted in Red does not work and Green does. I want to use the shared drop folder option.
Exception Message: TF270016: An error occurred publishing log files from '' to ''. Details: The network path was not found.
I found this message in lots of posts and have tried the following -
1) Everyone has full access to the folder.
2) 'NETWORK SERVICE' also has full access.
But the above didn't work.
Looks like this is a known one. Can you please suggest a solution?
Appreciate the help.

Hi NVT,
Thanks for your post.
Yes, Chaminda is right, Hosted Build Controller not support the UNC path. You can install On-premise Build Server for your VSO Account if you want copy build output to UNC drop location. Or we suggest you select Copy build output to Source Control folder
or Copy to server when you’re using Host Build Controller.

Mail enabled list not picking up items from the drop folder.

Hi all,
I'm sorry if this has already been addressed but my searches didn't turn up anything that helped.
Our site has some mail enabled lists, that used to work and now do not. Here is a list of things I've verified and done.
1. Verified that email reaches the drop folder.
2. Verified that the list accepts messages from any sender.
3. Verified that the incoming email address is the same as the sender.
4. In Central Admin verified the settings mode is set to advanced, that the SMTP mail server for incoming mail is correct, and that the e-mail drop folder is correct.
5. Restarted the Sharepoint 2010 Timer Service.
6. Restarted the IIS server that hosts the virtual SMTP Server, and restarted the IIS server hosts sharepoint.
7. Verified that the service account has permission to the drop folder.
8. Looked through event log and found nothing.
9. Verified Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Incoming E-Mail is running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
Update: Looking through Event Viewer an error along this line appears.
The Incoming E-Mail service has completed a batch. The elapsed time was 00:00:00.2808126. The service processed

HandbreakCLI drop folder script HELP!

Im trying to get this script to work that passes a file through a drop folder, processes it with HandbreakCLI, then outputs the encoded file to a folded named "iflicks encode" in my "Movies" folder.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to modify the script to direct the file into the "iflicks encode" folder. Im sure this is a easy fix for some of the more knowledgeable users out there, help would be greatly appreciated.

If I'm reading your post and script correctly, this is pretty trivial.
The AppleScript ultimately does its thing by invoking two shell commands - one to convert the file and the second to move the file to its ultimate desintation. Your solution lies in changing that second command.
Here's the relevant line:
set ReplaceOriginalCmd to "mv -f " & tmpFile & " " & destFold & "'" & itemName & ".m4v" & "'"
This command moves tmpFile to destFold which was previously defined as:
set destFold to "HD(Mini):Users:jaredcraig:Movies:test:"
Now that won't work (and I'm surprised it doesn't choke on you right now) because you haven't specified a UNIX-style path which uses / to delimit directories. In either case, changing this line to the desired destination directory should solve your problem, e.g.:
set destFold to quoted form of "/Users/jaredcraig/Movies/iflicks encode/"
(note you need to use 'quoted form of' since the path includes spaces which will choke most shell commands)

ViewNotify service is not parsing XML from View Drop folder

Hi,
The view drop folder has now 2200 odd XML files which were not parsed from sometime now. We took a backup of this folder and started processing files one by one.
We had to restart the Service after sometime , the processing time is not uniform it ranges from 10 sec to 600 sec for one file. When parsing in bulk , sometime parsing 5 in batch is successful whereas at times it does not parse in batches.
Any suggestion on the available utility to automate the process where one file is parsed and then service is restarted.

Siddharth

Not Receiving Incoming Email from Drop folder

Hello,
I hope that someone out there will be able to help me with this issue. I am fairly new to MOSS2007 but belive that I have configured e-mail to list correctly, I followed the steps set out by Steve Smith
http--www.combined-knowledge.com-Downloads-How%20to%20configure%20Email%20Enabled%20Lists%20in%20Moss2007%20RTM%20using%20Exchange%202003.pdf
The process all follows fine and when I attempt to send to a configured mail enables list I can see the mail make it to the drop folder as it should. This is where the problem occurs, it is never picked up by the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service. The e-mail's I send just sit in the drop folder and nothing is happening.
As this is a fairly simple thing to setup there isn't a great deal of troubleshooting info out there and most of it just says check the basics like making sure that in the central administration console>Incomming Mail Settings the drop folder is specified as C:\inetpub\mailroot\drop (which it is)
I've been through the event logs and those created by sharepoint but can't see anything that looks like an error causing this issue and nothing in the applications logs either. I'm in limbo at the moment because so far as I can see I have setup correctly, mail delivery is succesful and nothing to suggest what is causing the issue.
I have reset the permissions on the drop folder to grant full access to the service account that runs the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service, I have even added the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service account to the domain administrators group to try and make sure its not a permissions issue.
Any advise would be appreciated because I've ran out of idea's now!?
Thanks in advance.
Drew

Hi,
Did you select “Directory Management Service” option, if so, please make sure you configure the Central Administration application pool identity account to have the Create, delete, and manage user accounts right to the container that you specify in Active Directory.
Did you install Exchange server 2003 in your MOSS environment? If so, you should add an SMTP connector in Exchange Server, if you don’t know how to do that, you can post your issue into the following forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrdeploy/threads
Also, please check whether your configuration meet the following requirements, If not, correct them and check the effect.
· The application pool account for Central Administration, the logon account for the Windows SharePoint Services Timer service, and the application pool accounts for your Web applications should have the correct permissions to the e-mail drop folder.
· The domain controller running Active Directory has a Mail Exchanger (MX) entry in DNS Manager for the mail server that you plan to use for incoming e-mail.
For more information about how to configure incoming e-mail settings, please refer to the following article:

Sharepoint emails struck in Drop folder

Hi ,
We are having shared hosting environment and host sites for multiple clients. The emails to document library does not work for one client suddenly where as for other clients it works fine with out any issue.
The emails are struck in drop folder, i tried to recycle timerjob, checked the ULS logs and no clue.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks much

Hi,
According to your description, the emails to document library struck in drop folder in one clients.
I have done a test in my SharePoint 2013 and I can't reproduced your issue.
For your issue, try to do the following:
Check the Incoming E-Mail Settings. changed in Configure Incoming E-Mail Settings->Settings mode to
ADVANCED and specified E-mail drop folder Path :c:\inetpub\mailroot\drop.
Check the Locks and the quotas and make a quota anyway that bigger than your current usage.
Go to SharePoint Central Admin > Application Management > Configure Quota and Locks->make a quota that bigger than your current usage.

Yep, you have the Nov CU. This is a bug with no resolution as of yet, that I'm aware of. I spoke with another

flushing the Config Cache resolved it in a scenario he saw it in.
I can't reproduce the bug in my lab environment.

Printer drop folder

Is there an easy way within the OS or with a simple utility to create a drop folder that prints PDF files to a given printer with a given page setup, or even a default page setup?

I don't think so. I have a program that will sling files around from one folder or volume to another. I want to use that program to toss a pdf file into a hot folder that will result in it being sent to a printer.
But I appreciate the info on how to create one. I knew under Tiger, but since the menu item for making the desktop printer was missing in Leopard, I thought that functionality was lost.

Can only sync photos by dropping folder on desktop - iPad won't sync photos

Hi all,
I've been trying for a couple weeks now to sync photos to my iPad.
I'm running SL 10.6.2 and have updated to the latest iTunes. I have one hard drive that runs only my OS and my applications and I have a secondary drive that contains all my data including music, videos, photos, documents etc.
I have been able to repeatedly successfully sync apps, movies, music, and even a pages document to my iPad from the secondary drive through iTunes.
Every single time I have tried to sync photos it just seems to hang at the Sync in Progress screen for hours. I finally have to cancel because it's obvious the sync will not be successful. This happens whether I have one folder selected with just a dozen photos or several folders selected.
I am not using iPhoto. I'm simply choosing the folders with the images I'd like to sync from the Photos tab in iTunes when my iPad is connected.
Today I took one of the folders I was trying to sync containing 12 photos and dropped it on my desktop. The photos synced in seconds and iPad happily said sync complete. Any ideas?
Is this a quirk with SL 10.6.2, iTunes 9.1, or iPad?
It's not necessarily a huge issue that I have to move all the photos I want to sync to my main mac drive... but I just really didn't want to clutter my OS drive with data stuff... I prefer to keep them separate. Seems the only way I can sync photos right now, though, is to move them to the main mac drive... even though everything else syncs just fine from the secondary drive...
Thanks for any help!

I am organizing my external HD and want to move files NOT COPY them. How do I drag and drop folder contents without Mac automatically copying them to the "drop" location?

I am sorting out all the clutter and duplicate files on my external HD. In doing this I am moving the entire contents of folders to new locations. Some of these folders cointain gigs of info. I do not want to have to spend large amounts of time waiting for hundreds of gigs to copy somewhere then moving the originals to the trash and wait even longer deleting all of them. All I want to do is move the files up a subfolder, but the way Finder goes aobut doing it can be a 400 GB swing taking hours. How do I just "move" them?

Check out this discussion. Worked for me.

When I do a drag and drop in Finder to move a folder into another folder it makes a copy of the folder in the new location instead of moving it like the help documentation says and like it used to do in Snow Leopard. I have looked all over in preferences for a setting the contols the move/copy outcome of drag and drop and have been unable to find anything. Is this the way Lion is supposed to work?

This solved my question by jsd2 on Oct 9, 2011 6:33 AM
I did a global change of permissions for the entire documents account in the currrent user account using the get info and apply to enclosed items.
I think what is happening is that the Documents folder normally carries an "everyone deny delete" ACL, meant to protect it from accidental deletion:
$ ls -lde ~/Documents
drwx------+ 6 t1 staff 204 Oct 9 08:51 /Users/t1/Documents
0: group:everyone deny delete
ACLs are special types of permissions that do not show up in GetInfo, but can get propagated if you click "Apply to Enclosed Items" on a folder that carries them. Affected files that acquire that ACL would require password authentication to move or delete them.
I think the following Terminal command (copy and paste it) should remove such ACLs from items within the Documents folder:
chmod -RN ~/Documents/*

Can't retrieve folder privileges for a specific user

I am trying to get the granted privilege for a specified user for a certain folder. I am using the wwsec_api.get_granted_user_privilege function. When I run my code, nothing is ever returned. Here is my code:
l_priv_varchar := wwsec_api.get_granted_user_privilege(
p_user_id => 0,
p_object_type_name => 'FOLDER',
p_name => '2889');
p_user_id is from wwsec_person.id$
p_object_type_name is my object type
p_name is from wwv_corners.id
I have looked at the properties of this folder and this user, 0, is set up as the owner. So I am expecting to see 'OWN' returned. I have another user set up to only VIEW the folder and when I put that user's id into the p_user_id parameter I still do not get any return. I can run this same code (with different parameter values) and get the privileges for a 'PAGE', but never for a FOLDER.
Does anyone have this problem or can tell what I am missing?
Thanks.
null

p_name for a folder is "sitename/parentfolder/foldername". You can see that in the syspriv_name field on the WWV_CORNERS table.

Blank form from trusted folder/privileged location with enhanced security

See http://superuser.com/questions/459138/adobe-reader-not-loading-form-content
When opening an fdf from a command line the form fields are blank even though there is data in the fdf and the pdf is located in a mnaully entered trsuted folder.
Steps to reproduce:
Clean install a Windows 7 PC (or use a virtual box)
Map a network drive to a shared folder with a subfolder e.g. c:\test\docs becomes m:\docs
Set security permissions to allow full control to everyone
Add an fdf and a matching pdf file in the subfolder
Manually add m:\docs to each of the trusted folders in the trust manager registry settings
Ensure that Enhanced Security is on
Run a command line to open the fdf file
Expected result:
pdf is opened in Adobe Reader with form fields filled out with data
Actual results:
pdf is opened with blank fields
'Yellow bar' appears asking to add document to trusted locations
It appars that Adobe Reader XI is ignoring the privileged locations entries in the registry. Adding the document via the 'yellow bar' adds the individual document, with the same folder, to the privileged locations but means that the process has to be repeated for every document that needs to be opened from the folder.
Note that I've submited this as a bug but had no reply.
