So I recently updated my blog to WordPress 3.3.1 and then I was giving WordPress a new directory by following the steps of this explanation given under "Using a pre-existing subdirectory install". Everything worked smoothly, until I wanted to preview a post. I just get 404 errors.
what did I do wrong? How to fix it?

One thing that they don't mention in that article is that the ,htaccess file can cause these issues when you move it to a new folder.
Look for the line:
RewriteBase /
and change this to:
RewriteBase /newfoldername/
I've found that this has caused some issues with my sites when I've moved them between development and production.

I had WordPress installed in a subfolder called /wp/ and now I moved it to the root so the .htaccess says RewriteBase / which is right, since / is the root.
I also tried turning off the custom permalinks and used the default ones, which didn'T work either :(
