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.

  • 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.

  • 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 Vorontzov

    He 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.

  • Can we create new partner types for quallity notifications in SAP system?

    Can we create new partner types for quallity notifications in SAP system?
    The business requirement is to limit the available entries for partners  displayed when they search in quality notification. I have already created new partner functions & assigned the relevant partner types, however struggling with defining new partner types.
    Would appreciate help in resolving this.
    Thanks,
    Nilesh

    I know this customisation setting ...It allows us to create the partner functions & assign it to the partner determination procedure.
    Then you can assign the procedure to the notification type.
    This customisation setting does not solve the problem I have.
    I'm looking for the partner type creation process which we assign to the partner function.

  • Can We Create New Categories and Folders?

    I hate having all of my apps piled up in the "ALL" category.  Can we create new categories such as "Business Apps" or "Education" in order to stay organized? If not can we at least create folders within the existing catefories?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I read a response to a similar question yesterday on this forum. The BlackBerry tech said it is not an option right now but you can choose your favorites and have them show in the favorites section. Maybe folders will be available later. Enjoy the new tablet I know I am.

  • Can i create new CRM in 11i

    I have a question, can i create new CRM(Conflict resolution Manager) additionally in 11i EBS..?

    do we find any scripts to check about concurrent managers in EBS from back end(sqlplus )..?yes default installation give you some scripts to check about concurrent managers.
    The following SQL scripts located under $FND_TOP/sql :
    1. afimchk.sql Tells the status of the ICM and PMON method
    2. afcmstat.sql Lists active manager processes
    3. afrqrun.sql Lists all the running, waiting and terminating requests
    4. afrqwait.sql Lists requests that are constrained and waiting for the ICM to release them
    5. afrqscm.sql Prints log file name of managers that can run a given request. It can be used to check for possible errors when a request stays in pending status. It requires a request id value.
    6. afcmcreq.sql Prints the log file name of the manager that processed the request
    7. afrqstat.sql Summary of completed concurrent requests grouped by completion status and execution type. It requires number of days prior to today on which to report parameter.
    8. afimlock.sql Lists locks that the ICM is waiting to get
    9. afcmrrq.sql Lists managers that currently are running a request

  • Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?

    Hi,
    Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition instead of using the default "users" tablespace provided?
    Please advise.
    Thank you.

    Correct. The sum of all user tablespaces is not allowed to exceed 4 GIG.
    You could try shrinking your tablespaces. Theres a script called maxshrink on http://asktom.oracle.com which is useful for this.
    You could compress your tables.
    If you are storing lobs, you could consider storing them as bfiles.
    Or upgrade to Oracle Standard Edition 1. Its not that expensive.
