New Folders in Monterey
I've been reading a previous query about why I can't create folders in Monterey. The solution put forward is to put everything in a "home" folder. I've been using a 2014 iMac until it died in June this year and have stored my 97000 files in a folder structure that allows me to easily find what I'm looking for and to update when required. I've recently bought a Mac mini running Monterey and find that the structure that I've created over the last 8 years is now useless. If I want to create another folder e.g 2022, then 2023 then this can only be done on my "home Folder" so I end up with two file systems pre-Monterey and post Monterey which is not really a solution, it's a mega problem. Alternatively I could transfer all my folders into the "home" Folder which could take hours or days. Has anyone got a better solution? This is another of those issues where Apple has fundamentally changed the system while not informing its customers. This incredibly arrogant attitude is also apparent in the Music (ex iTunes app). After every update to a new operating, half of the songs stored in iTunes disappears. These collections have often been built up over several years. As I don't trust Apple to respect this collection, I've decide to transfer all the music to external discs - hours more work. Another fine mess Apple have landed me in. They don't seem to care about their customers at all.
