Libname - using SAS Studio on MAC

[daleso]

Hi, I am new to SAS Studio and would appreciate if you can help me with this issue: 

I created a folder under my documents called: my_lib, then I was in SAS Studio creating new library, however after putting name and path in I got error saying:Library TEST_ does not exist. I am attaching the screenshot of my setup here as reference. Thanks in advance.

Are you using SAS On Demand or your own internal installation?

If you're using On Demand, you cannot access any files on your computer using network paths, everything is in the cloud. 

You have to manually upload/download files.

Hi, I'm using it on my own. The folder (my_lib) was created under my local documents...

So you have a private installation and are not using SAS Academics on Demand.
I'm assuming this is installed in a Virtual Machine then? Have you set up a connection between the VM and your local drive?

Oh I just realized what you were saying, my bad. I guess I will need to upload files to the server and then work on it. Thank you!
