Unable to "Create New Folder" on Fuji X-S10

[DoctorBob]

Firmware 2.10. Newly formatted sd card. And yes, I've taken a few shots.

Menu Set up - Save Data Set-Up - Select Folder - "Create New Folder" is grayed out. So I cannot create a new folder. I'd like to create folders so I can store images by date.

Any thoughts on how I can fix this?

You can do this but I don't recommend it. You would need to remember to manually make a new folder each day, month or whatever, and the file number restarts from 1 in each folder. That screws up my way of filing the files on the Pc and without extreme care the new files will over-write older ones.

I found that out the hard way.

I should have explained. If I remember correctly, you enter the new file name you want (I found this fiddly) at the select folder stage. It isn't created till you take the next photo, which will store in it. After that you can select either folder.
