I am using SAS University Edition. I am able to create folders and download files from the SAS Studio but I cannot upload any files from my local machine (MacBook) into SAS Studio. After clicking 'Choose Files' button in 'Upload Files' window, it allows me to select files and click the 'Choose' button. After clicking the 'Choose' button when the control comes back to the previous window (the 'Upload Files' window), the selected files don't appear and so nothing happens upon clicking the 'Upload' button - neither the window goes away nor the files get uploaded. I am new to SAS but have significant experience on some other programming languages and platforms. Also, the files are very small in size.

 

I tried uploading the files into SAS Studio thru Virtual Box as well but even there I face the same issue.

 

Some other details are as below:

SAS release: 9.04.01M6P11072018
SAS platform: Linux LIN X64 3.10.0-957.27.2.el7.x86_64
Site name: SAS ONDEMAND FOR ACADEMICS
Site number: 70094220

 

Someone else is able to upload the same file using his account on his machine. So, what could be the problem - something related to my SAS account or laptop settings? Any help in resolving this issue will be highly appreciable.

When using virtual box, you have sas running in a virtual environment on your mac, so you don't need and upload feature, just copy the files to the folder you have mapped to MyFolders in the configuration of virtual box / SAS Studio.

 

Which browser are you using?

Thank you very much @andreas_lds for providing the solution in case of the virtual box. Somehow I forgot to realise the purpose of creating 'myfolders' on local machine, which has been mapped to the SAS Studio Smiley LOL  

 

I am using Safari browser (Version 13.0.1). It would be really nice if you could provide the solution for SAS ONDEMAND FOR ACADEMICS as well.

I had similar uses, and you are unable to upload files if using Safari. I had to install Chrome in order to solve the issue with SAS Studio.

Hello! I was able to upload them after downloading Google Chrome and using SAS in chrome. Instant upload with no problems.  I hope this helps!

As mentioned in the installation documentation, Safari is not supported. You should install Chrome or Firefox on your Mac and it works fine.
PS: I had the same problem
