Having trouble accessing knownfolders

I started noticing that my app isn't doing what it's suppose to do. So, I downloaded the following sample.
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/File-access-sample-d723e597
Scenario 1 throws an error everytime I try to create a file in the known folder.
An exception of type 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll but was not handled in user code
Additional information: The network path was not found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070035)
I should also add that I just reinstalled windows 8.1 on my surface pro 3 fresh from the image provided by MS.  So, I have not changed anything in this system.  All system settings are default.
I should add that
storageFolder.FolderRelativeId.ToString() = "3876847194711B4E\\Pictures"

It's not exactly clear why this is happening on your machine. It works fine for me on VS 2013 Update 3/4.
1) Since this sample is a universal app, does the issue happen on both Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone app?
2) Have you tried launching VS as an administrator, did it help?
3) What version of VS are you running?

  • Having trouble accessing photos

    Ever since updating my 4s to the ios7, I am having trouble accessing my photos when using apps such as Facebook, text messaging, and Google hangouts.  It says that the app cannot access my photos and to change my setting in privacy settings.  When I go to the privacy settings and click on photos I get a message saying that if an app wants to access my photos it will be listed and I can change the setting, however none of the apps are ever listed.  How do I change my setting so I can upload pictures that I have already taken on my phone?

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    This is not necessarily a permissions issue, but could also be a corrupt library.
    To repair permissions in the iPhoto Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. You'll see the option to check and repair Library permissions.
    If that doesn't help, what version of iphoto do you have? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • Just joined cloud computing  having trouble accessing premier pro ...help please

    just joined cloud computing  having trouble accessing premier pro ...help please

    Hi Jeff:  thanks for getting back to me.  My daughter was downloading
    components but had downloaded the free demo last night.  She
    uninstalled what she thought was the demo but now we are unable to
    access the Premier Pro component and no icon is present on the screenor
    otherwise.  This is our first time with a Mac so maybe we just don't
    know where it is but are at a loss right now.  Thinking I should
    cancel my product purchase and then start from scratch if there is no
    easy solution.
      Your thoughts?

  • Having trouble accessing internet with new wireless WRT54...

    Having trouble accessing internet with new wireless WRT54G. Used easylink to read existing router BEFSR41 which works great to westell modem provided by Verizon. When connect new router Easylink configures WRT54G but when trying to connect to internet...fails. All lites indicate good. Not using wireless device yet, just the wired ethernet. Router set up as DHCP.
    I keep going back to old router and works great every time. Help! 

    Thanks for response, however I tried setting unit to 192.168.2.1 (leaving DHCP) to no avail. I put my old unit (BEFSR41) back in and I'm back up. I need to sit back and decide which way to go on this. Perhaps it's defective and I should return it.

  • TS1398 I am having trouble accessing certain websites on my ipad2

    I am having trouble accessing certain websites on my ipad2 which I used to be able to access. all I get is a white/blank screen. One site is www.fodors.com. another is http://www.baseballhq.com/members/. Any suggestions?

    I have no trouble with them. Try this and see if resolves the issue,
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't help, quit Safari and then relaunch it.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
    If that doesn't help, try this.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • I have a new Mac, I am having trouble accessing Bill Pay on my banking site. After 2 unsuccessful calls to my bank, I thought I would ask here....is there something I need to do?

    I have a new Mac. I am having trouble accessing the Bill Pay on my bank site. After 2 unsuccessful calls to my bank I thought I would try here. Is there anything I need to change in my settings?

    We can't really say without more information.  It could just be that your bank site stinks and only works in Internet Explorer, which means you can't use it without Windows.  It could be that it relies on Flash or Java and you don't have either installed.  Your bank should be able to tell you if it requires either of those, and we can tell you where to get those things.  Or it could be something else entirely.

  • Hi I am having trouble accessing the App store and I tunes on my IPad, it just keeps loading. How can I fix it please.

    I am having trouble accessing the Apps store and ITunes on my IPad. It just keeps loading, can someone please tell me what I've done wrong. Thanks

    I have never experienced that or read about it either but before you resort to restoring - and that may be what you have to end up doing - try the basics first.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    Sometimes just restarting the iPad can really help. The resolution may end up being more complicated, but try the simple things and then move on.

    Firefox doesn't come with a "quiz area". Is that something you installed?
    If so, look in the Add-ons Manager { Ctrl + Shft + A }, on the Extensions tab, and see what you have there.

  • A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline

    When I select “Update existing software in QuickTime Pro I get an error message saying “A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline”
    This has persisted for several weeks. Any help will be welcomed as I do not know how to contact QuickTime support via Apple.
    I am using Windows 7 64 bit.  
    Many thanks

    I was able to download and install the latest version of iTunes  (10.6.3.25) without a hitch. After the reboot I tried again to update my exisitng Quicktime Pro software as described in my original posting and got exactly the same error message.
    If it happens that there is no software to download because I am already running the latest version, surely a message to that effect would appear and not the one saying “A connection to the QuickTime server could not be established. This computer may be having trouble accessing the Internet or the server may be offline”
    Still seeking advice if possible
    Cheers

    I am having trouble accessing my voicemails.  This seems to happen randomly.  Sometimes I can get them and sometimes I can't.  I'm always notifiede that I have a voicemail, but usually I can't get it to play the recording.
