Password protection for a folder in the documents file

I want to have access to a private folder within my documents file, using a password.

If the file is yours and you forgot the password, that is one answer. If the file is trying to be accessed and it asks for a password, that is another story. Please explain the situation better and the software being used.

Hi Sundhar,
According to your description, you might want to check the existence of sub folder in a folder of a library using Client Object Model.
Please take the code demo below for a try, it will check whether there is sub folder in a given folder:
public static void createSubFolder(string siteUrl, string libName, string folderServerRelativeUrl)
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext(siteUrl);
List list = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle(libName);
CamlQuery camlQuery = new CamlQuery();
camlQuery.ViewXml =
@"<View Scope='RecursiveAll'>
<Query>
<Where>
<Eq>
<FieldRef Name='FSObjType' />
<Value Type='Integer'>1</Value>
</Eq>
</Where>
</Query>
</View>";
//camlQuery.FolderServerRelativeUrl = "/Lib1/folder1";
camlQuery.FolderServerRelativeUrl = folderServerRelativeUrl;
ListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(camlQuery);
clientContext.Load(items);
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
Console.WriteLine(items.Count);
if (0 == items.Count)
//create sub folder here
Best regards

Is there a way to password protect a video folder for appletv?

Hey guys, is there a way to password protect certain folders in Appletv? so the kiddies can't watch violent movies?
Thanks
Mo

No but there is an alternative for your mac but not your PC.
You could create a second user account and put the adult content into an itunes library there, when you want to watch it open the second user (can be password protected) and start itunes and the library will become accessible from the tv.

Password protecting a web folder with .htaccess

I'm trying to set up .htaccess for a folder on my website. I've created the .htpasswd file (on the volume root folder) and the .htacess file in the folder I'm trying to protect. I've turned on Allow All Overrides in Server Admin Web>Options. But so far I'm not getting a dialog box asking for a password.
The contents of the .htpasswd are:
kcpcu:$........
The contents of the .htaccess file are:
AuthUserFile /.htaccess
AuthType Basic
AuthName "KCPCU"
Require valid-user
I'm at a loss on what to do to get this working. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Make a backup copy of your 'httpd.conf' file. Then find the line that says:
    AllowOverride None
And change it to:
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
If you are using virtual domains you will have to edit the virtualhosts '.conf' file and add these lines:
    <Directory /docroot/www.yourdomain.tld/html>
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
    </Directory>
check the owner and permissions on the .htaccess file. Set the permissions on the .htaccess file:
chmod 644 /path/to/.htaccess
and
chown www:www /path/to/.htaccess
There's no need to place the password file in a directory of the top level of the volume. It can exist in /etc/httpd or one directory up from the webserver document root directory. Just make sure the permissions are set to '644'.

How to password protect PDF documents or files?
Open the PDF file in Acrobat
Select File > Document Security from the menu
Got to the u201CSecurity Optionsu201D drop-down and select u201CAcrobat Standard Securityu201D
Find the box labelled u201CPassword required to open documentu201D and place a check mark against it.
Edit or type the password
You can also add a password requirement for changing permissions or password.To add a a required password check the box against u201Crequired password to change permissions or passwordu201D and enter the password. However note that this password must be different from the one that you entered for securing or password protecting the PDF file.
If you want your PDF document to be password accessible to users with previous versions of Acrobat Reader (versions earlier than 5.0), do not change the 40-bit encryption setting. However if your users or audience will be using version 5 or later versions of the Reader (or the full Acrobat program) then you may use 128-bit encryption.

Making specific folders password protected in Public folder

If I have two subfolders in the Public folder of my iDisk - each containing images for a different person - can I specify a different password for each folder?
Thanks

You cannot password protect an ordinary folder. A "disk image" is a special kind of folder that you CAN password protect; on the desktop that 'folder' has the icon of a volume because it actually is a temporary volume. Use Disk Utility to create as many such disk images as you need, each with its own password, and each with a meaningful name ("JonsPics", "stuffforMary", whatever) so that you don't get confused. Put the appropriate files into each disk image and give the appropriate people the password they will need.
Where you then put those disk images (files with suffix .dmg or .sparseimage), on an iDisk or anywhere else, is immaterial.
Try an experiment. Use Disk Utility to create a disk image (with encryption) on, say, your desktop. Drag some files into the temporary volume that has appeared (the 'folder'). Now unmount the temporary volume via a Finder window's sidebar 'eject' symbol or by dragging the volume to the trash - (which is equivalent to closing the folder). You will have a xxx.dmg or a xxx.sparseimage file on your desktop: it contains your files, but hidden from prying eyes - double-click it - it will ask for a password... Those .dmg (or .sparseimage) files are what you will upload to your iDisk.
You can mount a volume from a .dmg or .sparseimage file as often as you like - just as you can open a folder as often as you like -- but with these kind of "folders", once you have closed/unmounted them, you will only be able to remount/reopen them with the correct password.
Don't lose a password - Disk Utility warns you that without it you will be unable to access your files... which is exactly what you have been asking how to do!
Do try it -- you will find it a lot simpler than trying to follow my explanation!

Is there a way to password protect a Desktop Folder in Yosemite

I have an IMAC running Yosemite 10.10.2. I would like to password protect a Desktop Folder. Is there a way to do this?

You need to find a third-party utility that does that. You should find one at macupdate.com or at the App Store. In order to use OS X you would need to create an encrypted disc image using Disk Utility, then store your folder in the disc image. That way only you can mount the disc image and access the data.

HT201301 Can I add an entire folder to the Documents list? [FILE-SHARING]

I'm trying to work with one of my apps listed under File Sharing on iTunes, and I want this folder full of information to go in it. Without the files being in the folder with a specific name, they don't work, and when I launch the app a new folder is automatically created with that specific name. Anyone know how to drag an entire folder into the Documents of a File Sharing app on iTunes?

Azul. It's a video player.
I want to copy many videos while keeping them organized inside folders. It seems iTunes doesn't alliow me to create, edit, or copy folders (only delete them) (under the Apps tab, in "File Sharing")

How do I save PDF files by default to the folder of the source file?

How do I save PDF files by default to the folder of the source file with Acrobat 9.0.0 Standard?

I am not seeing that behaviour. If I right-click a link to a .pdf file, I get the file saved with the original filename.
Maybe one of the settings in about:config controls that?
pdfjs.previousHandler.preferredAction is a setting that has a value of 4 with my setup. I have no idea what that means, and I could not find any explanation anywhere. You could try using different numbers for that value and see if any make any difference. Why has nobody bothered to explain that setting anywhere?

I am unable to call up a folder from my documents files in pages. I haven't accessed it in a while but did not delete it and now cannot find it either through finder or a search of all saved documents. Not in my trash either. Where did I hide it?!?

I am unable to locate a folder in my document files in Pages. I haven't accessed it in several months and now cannot find it in the docs and folders when I go to "open an existing file ...", in finder, or the list of all saved docs. Can anyone suggest where I might have succeeded in hiding it? thanks!

Try Find Any File (also available in the Mac App Store). This will find hidden & invisible files as well as those in the various Libraries.

Report "General Ledger from the Document File" - Cumulative balance

Hi!
When I start the report "General Ledger from the Document File" (transaction S_ALR_87100205), I get a list of documents with no obvious default sort order criteria (I can see at glance that document numbers and posting dates are not sort criteria). This makes the cumulative balance column completely useles.
Since the cumulative balance is carried from one row to another, standard sorting functionality for the already produced list makes no sense.
There should be a way to affect the sort order in program <b>before</b> cumulative balance calculation, or at least to find it out.
Is there a way to acomplish this?
Thanks!
Regards,
Igor

In the output control section there is a button called configure. Select a variant. Select configure. Save the sort order and report definition the way you want it. Name a new variant. Now go back and run the report with your variant.
pls assign points if helpful as a way to say thanks.
