I am new with sharepoint. I want to create a document library( e.g FinanceDocs) in sharepoint 2013 and want to allow FinanceGroupUser to view, edit, etc. But, I don't to allow other user to view, except Full Control users. I set permission for that library. But, It is not working as I intended. Limited Access user out of FinanceGroup can view that library. Thank in advance.
It sounds like you've set it up correctly.
One way to check is to have a test user with similar permissions to the restricted users and see if that functions as you want.
Have a look at this blog to understand Limited Access:
http://en.share-gate.com/blog/what-are-sharepoint-limited-access
Site Contents - > Add an App -> New Document Library (To Create a Library)
You can set the permission levels according to the Group of Users from the Active Directory .
Library Settings - > Permissions for this Library -> Add the User & Set the Permission .

So i have a list on Sharepoint.
The point of the list is that only administrators can edit the documents and upload them. The rest of the users are going to be able to see the document exmpl. Title ( Ok so i hid couple of columns and made it so that only the name of the file is shown, but not the link to the document).
The issue is that users can select the item and edit them (I don't wnat that), they can also download them (not exceptable either).
Any idea how to solve this?
Things to check:
What are the users permissions? You mentioned that they can edit documents so they might have contribute permissions. Check the permissions by going to the Ribbon > Library tab > Library Permissions. Users need to have at least Contribute/Edit permissions to be able to edit documents in SharePoint.
Who are the members of the Contribute group? Is "Everyone" added there? If so, every user will be able to edit documents.
Is the library inheriting permissions from the site? One possible solution (not great) is to break the library inheritance and grant users/SharePoint group with Read-Only/View permission.
Is there any custom permission level granting the users ability to Edit documents? -> "https://yoursite/_layouts/15/role.aspx" will show you what permission level you have on that Site Collection.

I have a user that can create a document library in our SharePoint 2013 site. The problem is after she creates it she is not given full control over the library so she isn't allowed to grant permissions to other users.
When someone creates a library aren't they by default the owner of that library? If that isn't how it works by default is there something I can do to make that happen?
Thanks,
Brian
you could create or modify the permission level of the user's group. Thats a way to go
Here is a link:

I have a group of user called "support". I want them to be able to log in the django admin site, view and modifiy the instances of the class "HelpContextual" of the application "support".
So I created a group "support" with the permission support | help contextual | Can change help contextual. The users can log in the django admin site, but they can't see any application.
I tried to give them all the permissions of the "support" application, but still, they can't see the support app. If I use a direct link to change a "help contextual" like this one : admin/support/helpcontextual/5/change/, I get a 403.
I feel like I'm missing something obvious... Can you point it to me ?
Make sure you have done the following steps.
Add group `Support.
Under available permissions select support | help contextual | Can change help contextual from Available Permissions and then make sure you have clicked on the arrow pointing to Change Permissions. This will move the specific permission to Change Permissions.
Click Save.
Create or open users.
Select Active and Staff Users.
Select Support from Available Groups and click the arrow pointing to Chosen Groups. This will move the Support group to Chosen Group.
Don't make any change to User Permissions unless you want to grant additional permissions to any specific user.
Click save.
Have the user logout and log back in.

I had a custom backend and removed the default django authentication backend...
I'm using SharePoint 2013.
I need to enable new option only for user. other option need to disable in document library.
below is my screen shots for your reference.
I need to enable new option only for user. other option like Open&Check out, Manage, share&Track, copies, workflows, tags & notes need to disable also Library.
how to set and what permission need to be set.
Most of your requirements can be achieved with a custom permission level. If you create a new permission level and grant the user only Add Items, View Items (required), View Pages and Open access, they will only be able to upload and view items.
However, this will not stop them from opening items already uploaded. The permission level requires they have the access to open if you want them to upload.
The only other way I can think of to accomplish your request is to create a file upload web part that will run with elevated privledges, allowing the user to upload a document even if they do not have access to the library.
While configuring ‘custom view’ for Share point list, I am trying to customise view for each user, such that each user can view his/her customized view only. Please share tips, how this can be done.
Firstly, you cannot set permission for views in SharePoint 2010 Therefore, if you have impression that each view should only be viewed by respective user then you have to use Sharepoint designer to do the trick.
First you create a document library.
Create the view for the user.
Use the SharePoint designer to copy the view file to document library.
stop inheriting permission on Sharepoint document library and delete form source library
give permission to the view file for the user inside document library.
Hope this helps
