If a directory is empty it will not show up in the list. You have to use another program and make sure there's a file in the directory (bucket) before it will show up.

Also, I cannot create a sub bucket

There are only top level buckets in S3. Read more about buckets at (http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonS3/latest/index.html?UsingBucket.html). Keys (Objects) in buckets have a virtual delimiter that is interpreted to navigate in a path like way. This is supported. However some clients support virtual empty folders that are simulated by creating an empty file with a MIME type of application/x-directory.
