Rename, New folder action using Drive CMIS connector

I am trying to work on "Rename" and "New Folder" actions from Drive. To give more details - when I connect to our DAM using Drive, the DAM gets mounted as a network drive and can be accessed from Windows Explorer. I was told on one of the Adobe forums thread that Drive uses the Windows in-built context menus to initiate these actions.
Refer: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3807568#3807568
But when I try "New Folder" menu, Explorer gives me "Access denied" or "You need permission" kind of error. On "Rename" I get similar error. I believe both these errors are due to the fact that I am trying to modify certain things on a network drive. But then what would be the work around so that I can perform these actions on a CMIS server using Drive?
We are adding CMIS layer on top of our DAM so that it will work as a CMIS server. For connection with Drive, we use the default CMIS connector that comes with it.

There might be something wrong with our implementation as well. But I am not able to figure out where lies the problem.

Problems creating a new folder when using webmail

Hi, has anyone else out there encountered problems when trying to create a new folder when using webmail ?
It just seems to create a new folder called 'New Folder' and misses out the step that would normally allow you to rename it to a title of your choice.
A whole list of folders called 'New Folder' is about as useful as an ashtray on a motorbike.
It did used to work as I've used it many times in the past.....but then so did a lot of things before the 'new' and 'improved' version of BT Mail came along.
Any help or suggestions gratefully received (apart from the obvious solution, switch to a mail client).
Maybe it needs flagging to the 'techies'......they must be really busy trying to sort out all the so called teething problems.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

What should happen is that when you click on the + for add a new folder a box should appear, somewhere amongst the folder list. (The list is in alphabetical order so if you have a number of folders previous to the letter N it maybe out of view ) .
The box will have the text " New folder-X," ( see below for the explantion for the -X ) you then delete the text, type in the name you want, hit enter and there it is.
If you don't notice the box, possibly because it's off screen further down the list, you then open and close the list, or log out the next time you view the list it, or they, are simply named New folder.
So you now have umpteen " New folders ", here's how to rename them.
Place your cursor on the word New Folder in your folder list, you will see a little box appear with" New folder-X," x being the number of the new folders you have created., eg -0, -1, -2 etc.
Then double click on it, you should then get a larger box with New folder-X.
Delete the text in the box, type in the name you want for the new folder, hit enter there's you newly named folder.

Adobe Drive CMIS connector and Authentication

Hello,
We have undertaken a project to make our DAM CMIS compliant and thus get connected with Adobe Drive using it's inbuilt CMIS connector. We will be following RESTful AtomPub binding of CMIS for this.
CMIS spec doesn't talk a lot about the authentication and seems like it is outside the scope of CMIS. I wanted to know how Adobe Drive client gets authenticated with any CMS/DAM using its CMIS connector. What is the mode of authentication used - is it HTTP basic, digest authentication or something custom. So I am not sure what would Adobe Drive send to get authenticated and what would it expect in the response. How do we pass back the session token that we will create.
Any pointers wrt this are appreciated. That will really help us make progress on this project.
Thanks!
Mandar Kulkarni

Drive CMIS connector uses HTTP basic authentiction.
Thanks.

Developing: Endless loop in Adobe Bridge with and Adobe Drive CMIS Connector

Hi
Currently I’m implementing a CMIS-Server for the dam system of my company, using the apache chemistry framework. One of the main requirements is that adobe drive works with it.
At the moment I implemented only the navigation services (getChildren, getObject, …) and the repository services and test them against adobe drive. It’s already possible to navigate through folders and read assets with ad4 and the finder. So 3 days ago I installed adobe bridge (CS6) and test my server again.
My test environment is very easy.
root(1 object)->test1(0 objects; empty)
First I’m opening my repository with adobe drive and then I switch to bridge and connect it. Bridge shows me the folder test1 with no errors. So I double-click it and now bridge is in an endless loop. The notification switch between ‘Keine anzuzeigenden Elemente’(No elements to show) and ‘Einen Moment bitte, die Suche läuft …’(Searching, please wait …). This only happens in bridge. When I open the folder with the finder it just works, without the loop.
So I logged all requests, which were send by adobe drive, and get this list.
Connecting with adobe drive
getRepositoryInfos
getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes
getTypeDecendants (cmis:document)
getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes (Why two times?)
getTypeDecendants (cmis:document) (Why two times?)
getRepositoryInfos (Why two times?)
getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
getObjectByPath (/.hidden) (Why so often?)
getObjectByPath (/DCIM)
getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
getObjectByPath (/.Spotlight-V100)
getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel) …
Open the Cmis repository in bridge and doubleclick the repository
getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
Then I double click the test1 folder
getObject(cmis:folder,127)(test1)
getChildren(cmis:folder,127) -> empty list
… (endless loop)
I already checked getObject and getChildren against a reference implementation (FileShare Repository of apache Chemistry) and it returns exactly the same structure. Only the name and the timestamps are different. So my second though was to check the repository capabilities and as well they are both equal. Now I’m a little bit desperate because I spend already 3 days in try and error bugfixing but nothing worked. So here are my questions.
Is there a logfile for bridge because I thing this refreshing happens after an exception. I already checked the adobe drive log and it contains only asset not found errors for (e.g mach_kernel …).
In which circumstances does bridge reloads a folder?
Debugging of adobe drive: I already read http://forums.adobe.com/message/3928595 but it doesn’t work in AD4 any more, I only get info/error/fatal messages.(I changed the log4j config files in AD4ServiceManager.) Does something changed or did I forget something?
Why does AD4 make 2 or more times the exact same request? (Look table above).
I hope my English is good enough to understand.
Thanks

After two months I'm a little bit smarter so I can answer some of my question by my own.
No there is no logfile for bridge, but I was able to debug the scriptcode from the ad plugin, which is installed in bridge.
If an error occures in the plugin
I was able to decompile the cmis connector. That helps a lot when ad logs with weird exceptions.
Because AD maps the actions of the filebrowser(finder,explorer) to cmis and this one does sometimes the exact action two or more times.
Unfortunately is wasn't able to fix my main problem, but I found a workaround to use cmis in bridge. I deactivated the ad plugin in bridge and after that action, bride display the cmis volume as normal volume. Sadly some actions like to manage relationships etc. are with this workaround not usable but for me this is alright.

I want to create a new folder on my external hard drive for photos. Even though I added the new folder button to the tool bar it is not highlighted so I cannot click on it to create a new folder on this drive.

I have an external hard drive that I would like to pre-make a new folder before I import photos into it. Even though I added the new folder app to by toolbar, it is not highlighted and I cannot use it. It will only let me create new folders if I upload to iPhoto. That is not where I want to store everything. So I need to figure out how to turn on or activate New Folder on my toolbar for all possible downloading options.

If it's a drive that you've previously used with a PC, just double-check the format - click the drive once on the desktop to highlight it, and click cmd-i (the command key and the i key together) to see the Info window. That will tell you, under Format, how it's formatted.
If it's "NTFS", that's the current Windows format. You can read but not write to it with a Mac. If you want full read/write access, you should look into Paragon NTFS, which allows you to do both. Note that some features of te Mac (Time Machine, for example) will only work with Mac-formatted drives.

Creating a new folder on external drive

I am struggling trying to figure out how create new event folders in imovie 11 on my external drive where all my events are stored. No matter what I click the new folder icon is greyed out. Am I doing something wrong?

The New Folder command is used for creating new folders in your Project Library.
When you import video into iMovie, the dialogue box that comes up gives you the opportunity to create a new event and select which drive you wish to save it to.
You can also select and drag clips from one event to another event.
You cannot, however, create folders in the Event Library.
The View menu provides some options on viewing events in the Event Library.

Automator Folder Actions - Use filename as subject in email

I regularly email .pdf atttachments to my head office. These are hand-written sales orders which are scanned in. The scanner software gives each file a sequential filename (eg. OrderNo_110612).
I have set up a Folder Action in Automator to create a new email and send the file as an attachment when it is added to the folder.
Get Selected Finder Items
New Mail Message
Send Outgoing Messages
I would really like to add the filename to the subject of the email. Is there a script I can run within the 'Run Shell Script' action that will extract the filename and can then be used as a variable in the subject field? This would allow both myself and head office to easily find the email at a later date should the need arise.
Any help would be gratefully received. I am not a programmer, although I understand the principle of variables etc..
I am using OS X Lion 10.7.2
Any help would be really gratefully received.
Many thanks

sorry, spaced.
on run {input, parameters}
          tell application "System Events"
                    return name of first item of input
          end tell
end run
P.s. this only work for the first filename. if you want the names of multiple attachments it needs to be revised a bit.

Can't make a new folder on external drive

I want to copie a folder from my harddisk to an external disk.
I can see the external disk in Finder, but when i click the menu to add a new folder it isn't highlighted, so i can't choose that option.
i checked my account but i'am the only user.
What could be the problem?

Hi,
Yes I used it earlier on a Windows computer.
After buying my fisrt Mac mini I phoned with Apple and they helped me to connect this external harddrive and an other one. One was set to function as a time machine and the other one I could use to back-up or whatever.
I'm am sure that everything was working correctly.
Now I can't cpoy things anymore. The only thing that has changed is that I can't phone Apple anymore (> 3mnths) and I upgraded to Lion.
Could ths be the problem?
In diskutility I can see that the structure is NTFS and the owner is not applied. Yhe only thing I can click on is "check disk" but I get a message that this ia a non valid request. There are no further options.
I bought 2 new harddrives from Samsung and the only thing I want to do is put my photo's and videos from that old disk to yhe new one.
I bought these new harddrives because the one that was set to Time Machine isn't working anymore. When I put it on it starts clicking, so I think its broken. If this would also happens to the other one I lost my complete photo archive nad video!!!
To prevent this I bought two new disks, but how can I get my stuff on to it?????
ps; I tried to log in as rootuser but this gives me no more options in diskutility!!
kr,

Mac OSX does not write to NTFS disks, you'll need to reformat the drive to either Fat32 or HFS

LOOOOOONG pauses in Windows Explorer with file copy, rename, new folder, etc.

I am using Windows 7 64-bit pro and I am experiencing horribly long pauses in Windows Explorer on very simple file operations, such as renaming a file, copying a file, creating a new folder, etc. Here is an example:
1. Open a folder in windows explorer, e.g. My Documents
2. Select a file
3. Hit F2 and enter a new name for the file, then hit ENTER to save the name
4. Windows Explorer now shows the wait cursor and becomes completely unresponsive, sometimes for MINUTES.
This is crazy. I read somewhere it may be due to shell extensions -- another post specifically called out MagicDisc, but I uninstalled that and still have the problem. After a fresh reboot the problem usually is not there immediately, but always comes back eventually.
Anyone have any ideas?

Hi Lex3001,
I would like to confirm what are the results in Safe Mode and Clean Boot?
I also would like to suggest you run ShellExView again and disable some shell extensions to check the issue.
Run ShellExView
=================
1. Launch ShellExView again and scan the computer.
2. Press "Ctrl" on the keyboard and click all items which are marked in pink in the list.
3. Choose "File" then "Disable Selected Items".
4. Quit and restart the computer to check the Windows Explorer issue again.
Does it work?
In addition, I also would like to suggest you create a new user account to check the result

In Mavericks, every time I try to create a new folder on the drive I get a prompt for my password. I checked Get Info on the main drive and under Sharing

I got a new 27" iMac with 10.8.5 and migrated a 10.6.8 system and files. It was working fine. After about 2 weeks I was looking at the Sharing & Permissions and saw an account "wheel". I mistakenly (I NOW know it was a mistake) changed the permission to no access and subsiquenty could not boot the computer. I had an older iMac so I built a boot disk with the Mavericks installer on it. Booted the computer and restored from a Time Machine backup previous to the change of permissions of the "wheel" account. I went ahead and did a clean install of Mavericks
The computer is now running with Mavericks installed and I am rebuilding. When I go to create a new folder on the system drive I get prompted for a pasword.
When I checked the permissions and sharing on the main drive it tells me "you can only read".
I am logged in with an admin account. I have run Disk Utiltiy and Tech Tool Pro's permission verify and repair. Given what happend last time I changed permissions I am reluctant to make any changes.
Anyone have an idea as to what I should do.
Thanks in advance.

Here is the dialoge box. My account does not appear. Can I just add my account or is there some other problem?

Can't rename 'new folder'

Dear community,
in Safari (OS X Yosemite) I found a 'feature' that's not logical from my perspective: When I want to save a file (e.g. a PDF), I right-click the link and klick 'Save file under...'. Then a window opens where I can specify the path where I want to store the file. Because I want to save the file in a new folder, I right-click in the file/folder list and choose 'new folder'. The new folder is created now but I can't change it's name. I think this is not correct.
But when I click on 'new folder' on the left bottom of that windows I can specify a name for that newly created folder. I don't think that these two different behaviors are programmed with intent but by mistake. Am I wrong?
Thanks for your ideas.

You are absolutely right

Why not instruct MacOS 10.10 users in creating a new folder to use the wheel icon pull-down menu ...

Your instructions on creating folders aren't correct. for my Mac, saying nothing about having to
Open the Bookmarks pull-down menu
Select 'Unsorted Bookmarks'
Go to the top 'Wheel' icon
THEN you can create a new folder, and other good things
Bit of a pain. Otherwise, Firefox is great!

* Bookmarks created via a click on the star in the location bar are stored by default in the Unsorted Bookmarks folder.
Another click on the blue highlighted star allows to edit the properties and move the bookmark to another folder.
* Bookmarks created via "Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page" (Ctrl + D) are stored at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder.
In the left pane in the Library (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) there are three folders in the "All Bookmarks" folder:
* "Bookmarks Toolbar"
* "Bookmarks Menu"
* "Unsorted Bookmarks"
You can add new bookmarks to one of those three Bookmarks folders, but you can not create a new folder or add bookmarks at the root level ("All Bookmarks") or remove one of the three root folders.
In the Bookmarks Manager you can also create a new folder via the Organize menu.
In the Bookmarks sidebar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac) you can do that via the right-click context menu.
There are three main Bookmarks folders and bookmarks can only be created in one of those folders and its sub folders.
* The "Bookmarks Toolbar" folder stores the bookmarks that you see on the Bookmarks Toolbar (Firefox > Options or View > Toolbars).
* The "Bookmarks Menu" folder stores bookmarks that show in the Bookmarks menu and are created via "Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page" or via "Bookmark This Link" in the right-click context menu.
* The "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder stores bookmarks that are created by clicking the star at the right end of the location bar.

When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

Anyone?

Moving Photos to a new folder in Lightroom 1.3.1 using Mac OS 10.5.1 Doesn't Work

I use an iMac with OS 10.5.1 and Lightroom 1.3.1.
First, I successfully imported the photos from my Epson P-2000 to a folder (Germany) which I created as part of the import into Lightroom (for File Handling in the Import dialog I used Copy Photos to a new location and Import).
Next, I created a new folder (Berlin) using the Lightroom folder panel and dragged some photos from the Germany folder into the new Berlin subfolder. Although the photos appear in the Berlin subfolder, they are still also in the parent, Germany folder.
Also, I would have thought that I could select photos and then use the Edit menu's Cut and Paste commands to move the photos. But even though I have selected images in the Grid view, these commands are grayed out.
I don't want to copy the photos - I want to move them. And I did not think that the same photo could be in two different folders. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Are you seeing this only in Lightroom? They are not 'still in the parent, Germany folder.' only visible their if you have 'Include Photos from Subitems' checked in the Menu/Library of Library.
Uncheck that you you will only see them in their correct folders.
