Why can't a user see all files in a network share?

Windows Server 2008 R2 is sharing a folder. Advanced Sharing permissions give Everyone Full Control.
NTFS Permissions give the OU "Operations" read/modify permissions.
In the Operations OU, 1 user (let's call him John) cannot see all the files in this folder. For example, here is the real contents of the folder:
File1
File2
File3
File4
File5
Everyone in the Operations OU sees all the files, except John. When John opens the folder, he sees:
File2
File4
File5
Several files are simply missing from the list. I have no idea where to look for help on this one. The files are dynamically added to the folder each day, and each day are cleared out. So every day it is a new set of files being generated (they are coming
from a PDF printer). There is no pattern to which files John can see, and which he cannot. Does anyone have any ideas?

I had the same problem, and it was related to permissions. My PCs are now running Windows 8.1 and folder properties are set to display file name extensions of all files. The 2 invisible files are File1 and File3 in your example. I have copied them to
both PCs. Computer A can see them on its own drive, and on computer B via UNC. Computer B can see them on its own drive, but not
on computer A via UNC. The cause: computer B didn't have permissions on these 2 files on computer A. I was starting the UNC directly from File Explorer, and, in my case, this uses HomeUsers for permissions (over my home network). So, on computer A, I gave
permissions on these 2 files to the user HomeUsers and that fixed the problem. I will also create a more general solution using inherited permissions.
Specifically, I selected the file and chose properties/security/advanced/add/select a principal, then typed HomeUsers "Check Names", OK, and selected the desired permissions. This fits your situation: the files are being created automatically and
don't have the correct permissions for the other PC to see them. Inherited permissions should fix it.

  • Why can't IOS users create PDF files anymore?

    WHy can I no longer create PDF documents from my IPad?  I used to be able to use this feature, now it is gone!  Why can't IOS users access this feature?

    Hi Timo,
    The Create PDF feature is part of Adobe PDF Pack (the paid subscription service) and is used to convert a non-PDF file format to PDF.
    I see that the "Getting Started" PDF document is opened in the screenshot above.  You cannot convert a PDF document to a PDF document.
    The error message is trying to tell you that you need to open the "supported format" (e.g. Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, RTF) then tap Create PDF to convert it to a PDF document.
    Please take a look at the following document about Adobe PDF Pack (which also includes Export PDF).
    Adobe PDF Pack verwenden
    Do you actually want to covert a document to PDF using Create PDF?   If not, please let us know what you are trying to do so that we can assist you.  Thank you.

  • Why can I no longer see .mts files on my Sony Video Camera

    before I upgraded to Mountan Lion, I could hook my Sony Video Camera up to the USB port and see the .MTS files on my Mac. Now when I hook the camera up, I can no longer see the files. I have to hook the camera up to a windows machine, copy the files from the camera to a dropbox folder or DVD. Then I can see them on my Mac from the dropbox folder or DVD.  Why did I lose the ability to see the files directly on the camera?

  • Why can't I open/see PDF files that are embedded in an email or sent through the internet?

    I can read/see PDF files that are attached to an email, but I can't see/read them if they are embedded in an email or sent through the internet.

    I have a similar problem. I can open, read, and save PDF files, but I can't view my online bank statement on my Mac. The statement opens automatically if I use a PC, but on my Mac the page says I need Adobe Reader to view my statement. I already have the latest version of Adobe Reader. The problem seems to be that that the plugin only goes to the Libray. It doesn't get installed into Safari or into FireFox either.

  • Why can't my EJB see common files inside war file?

    My DataProcessorBean packaged in an ear file can't find a local class(JDomUtils) during runtime.
    It compiles fine, it's accessible in my IDE, and I can see it also in the war file contained in the ear but getting this error.
    Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Lcom/app/util/xpath/JDomUtils;
    Any suggestions?

    If I got you right your EJB is packaged in the jar which is in ear.
    Your util-class is in war which is in ear too.
    In such case you can't get access from Bean to Util class because of classloaders rule.
    Possible solution is to move your Util class to APP-INF\lib. In such case it will be shared by all the modules that you have in your ear.

  • Why can't Admin Users see what I've given them permission to see?

    I have a Secure Zone set up on my client's site and have set them up with 3 admin users and given them permissions to view and edit the secure zones. However, when their Admin Users go in to the Admin Console and click on Site Manager they can only see Web Forms and System Emails. What's going wrong?

    Does not sound like you have set up the roles correctly.

  • Whenever I modify a photo in Iphoto it puts it in a "modified" subfolder. Why can't I move this modified file (I changed name) back to the Iphoto main file so I can see it when I open my photos?

    Whenever I modify a photo in Iphoto it puts it in a "modified" subfolder. Why can't I move this modified file (I changed and saved file name) back to the Iphoto main file so I can see it when I open my photos?

    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.
    If that does not cure it backup up your iPhoto library and rebuild it - depress the option and command keys and launch iphoto and use the options there - exact option depends on teh version you have
    And always remember - NEVER make any changes of any sort to the structure or content of the iPhoto library - nothing - no deletions - no name changes - nothing

  • Why cant I see all files on my SD card?

    On my old PC I just connected my Nikon camera and transfered my pictures and the deleted on the camera SD card. On my Mac that seems impossible. First of all its not possible to connect(USB) the camera. That is possible to solve by just entering the SD card directly to the Mac. The next issue though is that I cant see all files. When I have deleted the pictures some kind of files are still on the card meaning there isnt a full memory space left. Again, on the PC this is clera but on the Mac I cant see the files. Can somebody help me?

    Well, a card always has a very small portion for its own system on it. And, deleting the cards on the computer is not the best idea - it may work for some time, but it is best to format the card in the camera (which erases it). After you drag the pictures to the trash and empty it, what exactly is left on the card? Can you post a screenshot of the remaining file(s) please.

  • Why can't I see all servers on my network with Lion?

    Why can't I see all servers on my network with Lion, but I can with Snow Leopard? Am I missing a setting somewhere? This is really frustrating and I'll have to go back to snow leopard if it can't be fixed. I can see other macs fine, but network servers and PC servers are missing. Sometimes they do appear in 'Shared All' and I can connect OK, but then they disappear again. Is this a bug with Lion, or am I missing something really simple? I can't work properly at the moment, so Lion has been a disaster for me. Any help really appreciated. Thanks

  • PSE9 Organizer - How to see all files in Folder view?

    In v8, there is a tab under Edit/Preferences named "Folder Location View" that allowed one to select either to see all files or just those in the folder that is selected.  I can't find this option in PSE9.  Anyone know what happened to it?
    PSE0 defaults to seeing only those files in the selected folder, which is normally my preference as well, except when I am doing certain things and then I really need to see all files in all folders.
    For example, I need/want to write my tags to the file meta data in all of my files, but I have to go to each folder individually to do this and then I can only do it on that individual folder.  I really would like to be able to select all of my files and fire it off (yes, I know that would take forever, but I could go do something else while it is processing.)
    This is the second reason that upgrading to PSE9 is really downgrading.  One shouldn't lose functionality that has existed in several (all?) previous versions!
    Hopefully, this setting has just moved and I can't find it.  If not, Adobe, please add it back in ASAP!!
    Thanks,
    ...Rich

    Oh, I forgot to comment on the ability to create an album instantly by folder name.
    That really seems like a pretty useless "feature" for all but the most challenged user.
    All you need to do without the feature is select all photos in a folder (ctrl a) and then drag them to the folder name.  That just doesn't seem to be all that difficult.
    Thanks again.

  • Why can I no longer import Mp4r files from my desktop (Macbook Pro) to iTunes??

    Why can I no longer import Mp4r files from my desktop (Macbook Pro) into Itunes?  Seemed to work perfectly well before the latest upgrade.  Feeling quite annoyed, especially when all the forums seem to give the same advice, which no longer seems to work!!  Please can someone help!  Uploading a file should not be this difficult!!!

    Make sure you have the Quicktime Player 7 installed.  It was an option when installing Lion.  Or you can get it here: QuickTime Player 7 for Mac OS X v10.6.3 or later.  Install it, reboot and try again.

  • Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser.I can download pdfs using fire

    Why can't I download a pdf file using internet explorer as my browser. I can download pdfs using firefox.

    Gilad D,
    Thanks for the support.
    I would guess the plugin is enabled since when I use Foxfire as my browser, all pdfs download and are readable. (just doesn’t happen when I use IE as my browser, I get a blank screen with a small “x” in the upper left corner)
    I will try your proposed solution.

  • Why can't I get my Dreamweaver files into HTML?

    why can't i get my dreamweaver files to an HTML file? every time i press create new i open up a HTML that is linked to my CSS, i try to save and it comes up as a .dwt
    how can i end up saving these pages as HTML? can't figure it out... By the way it needs to be a .html page becuase that is the criteria for the class i'm taking.
    please help.

    Here's how you create a normal HTML page -
    1.  Open DW.
    2.  Use FILE | New... > Blank Page > HTML > Create
    3.  Use FILE | Save
    There - you've done it.
    If you are seeing your files saved as dwt files, you are somehow stuck in using a template.  If you *are* using a template, then you would have to use the following procedure to create a normal HTML page -
    1.  Open DW.
    2.  Use FILE | New... > Page from Template > site & template name > Create
    3.  Use FILE | Save
    Again, you have done it.  Both pages are standard HTML pages, although the latter is also the child page of the template you selected.

  • Why can't I load plugins from file system ?

    Hello.
    Why can't I load plugins from file system, fore development sake for ex. ?
    Thx.
    Andrew.

    For security reasons, the Flash Player doesn't allow applications to access both the file system and the network.
    One workaround is to compile the plugins in statically (rather than load them dynamically).  The Akamai Plugin Sample shows you how to load plugins either way, you can see the source here: http://opensource.adobe.com/svn/opensource/osmf/trunk/apps/samples/plugins/AkamaiPluginSam ple/.
