Cannot Create New Folder on Desktop

[freliz]

Ever since I upgraded to Yosemite I can no longer create New Folders on my Desktop and cannot move Folders from an existing folder to the Desktop, I tried doing most of the usual procedures but no result.

I can't even move a file from an existing folder onto the Desktop..I need help, a bit annoying..

How did you upgrade?

Have you tried repair permissions?

Downloaded from the App Store, not sure what you mean by repair permissions..

Run Disk Utility and run "Repair Permissions" on the HDD. It maybe you have mis-set permissions somewhere preventing you from creating on the desktop.
