Can no longer connect to certain shares after upgrading to 10.8.4

After upgrading to the latest version of Mountain Lion, I can no longer access certain shared volumes. I have one machine running 10.4.11 and I can connect to its hard drive. Another machine on my network runs 10.5.8, and I can now only connect to the built-in hard drive. There are also 2 Firewire drives connected to that (10.5.8) machine that I can no longer connect to.
When I use "Connect to Server" and enter the AFP address of the 10.5.8 machine, I get a full list of "available" shares, but if I select one of the FireWire volumes, I just get a spinning "rosette" for several minutes and then a failure message. I also have an OS 9 machine that I can no longer connect to on the same network.
I already read the "Connecting to Legacy Systems" notice and still no joy after following the instructions.
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
Jon

No NAS other than an Apple one includes native support for AFP. They all use an open source package called Netatalk that is junk. Many years ago Apple deprecated the old security modules that Netatalk uses.
The easiest solution is to hack up Lion so that it will connect with the old security protocol. Do a search for "lion dhx2" or something like that. Another option is to update your NAS to a version of Netatalk that includes support for DHX2. That is easier said than done. Netatlk isn't as "open" as other open source packages.

  • Can no longer connect to wireless router after upgrading to iTunes 9.2

    My wireless connection was fine (using MacBook). After upgrading iTunes, I can not longer connect to router/modem wirelessly - am tethered with an ethernet cable. Spent 1 1/2 hours on phone with AT&T support reseting the passwords, security, etc. A PC laptop accepts password and can connect. My iPhone still can connect. But my MacBook (OS X 10.6) will not recognize my password for the modem/router. Everything has been re-booted and reset to original settings. Also, I received an iPad yesterday and it won't accept the password for our home wireless network. The password is correct because I am using it on other devices that are connecting to the network. Any ideas?

    Yes, but the issue is not with Lion directly; there seems to be something with the upgraded system, perhaps a legacy setting or pref... I've scoured the system to no avail. I'm actually about to reinstall 10.6 - wasted too much time on this issue.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Can no longer connect to SMB server after upgrading to Lion

    We have a MacBook Pro that was running 10.6.8. The user upgraded to Lion, and can no longer connect to a Windows 2008 file server. (We have two offices connected through a hardware tunnel, but i do not think this is the issue.)
    We have tried to connect in the Finder (smb://[email protected]/). It asks for usr / pass, and then just hangs on "Connecting to server"
    We can ping, have tested these credentials on other computers, and tried other credentials on this computer, to no avail. Furthermore, we installed a fresh copy of Lion on another computer, and successfully connected, so I don't think the issue is with Lion itself.
    There must be something from the previous install that did not "upgrade" properly, but I don't know which file / setting it could be. It is system-wide setting, as we have also tried another user account on this same Mac.
    We've also run Onyx to fix permissions, clean out all caches, etc.
    Any idea what file i can change, modify, or delete?
    Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Can no longer connect to network server after upgrading dsl modem

    While I was working on a file that resides on a network server, the router was powered down so on reboot it would communicate with a dsl modem . After the router was power up I could not reconnect to the server.
    I have internet access
    The mini can see the server in the finder and the server sees the mini
    This is not a wireing issue.
    When I try to connect I get this message:
    "The file server uses an incompatible version of the AFP Protocol. You cannot connect"
    The server is an old mac running os 9.1. I've read that 9.1 is not compatible with 10.4.8. But it worked just fine this morning.
    There are other macs (cubes) running 9.2 I can connect to them.
    I've tried restarting and logging on as a differernt user. no change

    Thanks for your help
    I made no changes to the mini or the server.
    The router was shut down then on restart the new (replaced modem) was configured by using another mac on the network (not the file server)
    Once the router and modem were online again, other macs running 9.2 were accessing the file server as usual. The mini was not.
    I had been working on a file that resides on the server. I was not warned that the router was going to be shut down. When I saved the file I got the beach ball then error message.
    It'll be next week before I'm in the office agin. I'll report back then. Thanks

    I think you are sailing in uncharted waters with those kind of modifications.
    I am only guessing, but if you have not already done so,  do a PRAM reset and then trash your FCP preferences.

    My understanding is the Mac is doing a ram/hardware test during the grey screen, if the card you added had additional memory, then it is very likely the test will take longer - but I am no hardware expert.

  • Can't connect to SMB share after upgrade

    Just upgraded to 10.9 Mavericks and can no longer connect to our SMB file share on the network.  Several of us have tried connecting to it on this machine and all we get is
    There was a problem connecting to the server "xxxxxxx.domain.com".
    You do not have permission to access this server.
    Anyone else having this problem? 

    I have been searching high and low since yesterday afternoon for an answer to this.  My problem is not connecting to an SMB share (well, it was, as the old Cmd+K to connect to the SMB share would close quickly) but instead of the old Mac way of using Cmd+K and the IP address, I simply clicked on the available NAS SMB share under Shared and it is a massively fast connection.  The old SMB connection would take minutes to open the next folder. So, connecting as you would under Windows helped fix that problem, BUT...
    1.  The NAS SMB share times out regularly and you have to eject & reconnect.  Annoying.
    2.  Worse than this is I can not open any documents on the share, only navigate it.  I have to copy paste the documents to my local ssd, manipulate, copy back.  Any new file I copy on, or edit and copy on, the NAS SMB share I can navigate to and open.  But if I try to click a pre-Mavericks existing file, I get "Can not open 'excel/word/acrobat.app' with the -36" error.  Total BS. 
    3.  Even more weird, if I click spacebar on ANY file on the SMB Share it will pop up in preview.  Double click to open and error message.
    4.  If I copy a document attached to an email (Outlook 2011) to the server it is corrupt.  If I copy the file to local ssd, then to the NAS SMB, the same file works perfectly fine. 
    This is completely ridiculous and needs a fix immediately.  I'm going to try using Reinfire's link right now and see if that helps. 
    My NAS is a Netgear ReadyNAS 516 (linux/unix OS) I use in my office.  Computer is MBPr March 2013.    

  • WRT54G ver. 6 can no longer connect to the internet after reset

    I reset my WRT54G ver. 6 to clear the password, and now I can no longer connect to the internet with it. I can see the router itself from my PC, but that is all. I've followed the directions here for connection problems, but I can't seem to get an IP Address for it in the Web Configuration tool. Anybody have any thoughts?

    Since you reset your router, you need to reconfigure it back again. try the online utility that automates the configuration. download Easy Link Connect utility at www.linksys.com/connect then download "Netset" and follow instructions.
    if not Easy Link connect didnt work then you need to do the configuration manually.
    1. check physical connection modem should be connected wired to internet port of the router then PC to numbered ports of the router.
    2. Brighthouse i believe is cable connection, right? try power cycle your devices (turn off modem and router then turn on modem 1st then router next). check if your online.
    3. if not. check PC ip. click "start" then "run" type in "cmd" then press "OK". the command prompt should pop-up. type "ipconfig" and check IP and gateway. you should be getting an ip: 192.168.1.x and gateway: 192.168.1.1
    4. access router. open IE, then type in http://192.168.1.1 on address bar.
    5. you will be prompted with username and PW. "admin" is the default password. on setup, just below are subtabs. select "MAC address clone". in it, set "mac clone" to "enable" then click on "clone" then "save settings".
    6. power cycle devices again. try to go online
    note: if you dont have latest firmware. try updating if needed

  • Can no longer connect to Airport Express with upgrade to iTunes 10.1

    Since I upgraded to iTunes 10.1 I can no longer connect to my Airport Express (unknown error-15000). Another computer on my betwork running an older version of iTunes still works on the Airport Express.
    Any ideas? I have tried to uninstall and reinstall airport express with no success.

    Rather than disabling the firewall, try making sure you've got exceptions in it for BonJour. Although the following document is about a different error message, the instructions in there are worth trying. (At step 7, make sure there's an exception for BonJour as well.)

  • I can no longer find the tones menu after upgrade to IOS6

    Ever since my upgrade to iOS6.1 I can no longer see my ringtones in iTunes.  I still have it and can see it in my computer files but there is no Tones menu in the library of iTunes.  I've tried to just readd the folder but it did nothing.  I have my phone set to manually add music and videos and so each time I try to check sync tones it tries to erase everything else and remove the manual option.  And without the tones menu I can't find the ringtone to manually readd it to the phone.

    I found my answer in another posting.  There were two options.  The first didn't help but the second did but both still good information.
    Ringtones library is now called Tones. If you don't see Tones under the Library, go to iTunes menu EDIT>Preferences>check the Tones box under General tab, sources then click ok
    iTunes>View>Show Sidebar...Tones should be listed here under Library.

  • Can't connect to Samba shares after upgrading

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded to Samba 3.6.0-8 (among other things, including a new kernel 3.0-ARCH), and all my shares have become unavailable from Windows 7. I can't connect to any, nor can I see the shares list. My Arch box has essentially become invisible as far as CIFS shares go. I can still ping it normally, and access it through SSH, so it doesn't seem to be a major network issue, this is specifically with Samba.
    I have since tried changing my workgroup in Samba, downgrading to 3.6.0-{1,4}, disabling firewalls, changing Win7's security settings, and restarting several times, to no avail. Nothing has changed with my Windows box, I only performed a major upgrade to Arch (it is currently up-to-date).
    I don't see any relevant errors in the Samba logs, and I can browse the shares just fine locally in Arch, I just can't see them from Windows.
    Anyone have a clue?
    Thanks,
    IM

    Is your arch server configured to allow samba traffic? With the recent removal of hosts.allow and hosts.deny, I wonder if this could be the issue? Do you have ufw or iptables? I know you said you disabled the firewall, but it wasn't clear if that was on the client or server.
    Scott
    edit: here's the ufw rule I use (/etc/ufw/applications.d/samba):
    [Samba]
    title=Windows file and printer server for Unix
    description=Tools to access a server's filespace and printers via SMB
    ports=137,138/udp|139,445/tcp

  • Ipod touch can no longer connect to XP following Apple upgrade, HELP !

    This is a nightmare. My son has an ipod touch (8gb)purchased a couple of months, and it's been fine until a couple of days ago. I downloaded some music for him, and just about to synch when Apple informed me on itunes of a software upgrade, so naturally I did this. However, it could not complete it saying there was a problem installing the hardware. The ipod then had a permanent picture of a usb cable pointing towards the itunes logo. Itunes no longer recognises this ipod or my own ipod as a device.
    I'm not a techhie expert, but I generally know my way around computers, however I could not resolve this.
    I called the Apple technical support desk, where I spent 1 hour 45 minutes with 2 different advisors who could not resolve this. We installed and re-installed various components from drivers to itunes to anti virus software, however nothing could change. There was simply no recognition of the ipod at all when connected.It does give a pop up message to restore the ipod, however you can't actually click on the restore button because to have to get rid of the pop up message first, then the screen with the restore facility disappears.
    Windows xp is continually popping up a message saying " FOUND NEW HARDWARE WIZARD There was a problem installing this hardware. Apple Mobile USB driver. An error occured during the installation of the device. The system cannot find the file specified."
    You then have to click on finish, however the message keeps coming back. We kept going round and round in circles with the technical support people, where it was left that I should start removing programmes on my computer to see if any of those are causing a problem. I have had the same spyware for the last 12 months now and never had a problem before, nor any other programmes.
    I booked a genius appointment at my local Apple store today where the assistant reset the ipod to factory settings so it could at least work. I explained the situation, however 15 minutes was never going to be long enough to look into it, and a restore was all they did. Obviously all of my programmes were lost, however when I got home and plugged it back into the computer again, it could not be recognised by itunes and i got the same pop up message. Luckily we have not spent alot on downloads, however my son has lost his music now and it cannot be connected or upgraded. It's under guarantee however a software upgrade by Apple has totally messed my computer up. I really don't know who to turn to now as both the service support and store has not rectified this, something I feel has been caused by Apple.
    Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Help! My IE8 users can no longer access their wiki pages after upgrade to Lion.

    I upgraded my SL server to Lion without checking the browser requirements for the new Wiki server.  My users access the wiki via a Windows 2003 Terminal Server which is stuck on IE8, can't install IE9 on it.  I push out the home page URL via group policy and now everyone is getting the "unsupported browser" message.  Is there any way to allow them access with IE8?  They don't actually update the wiki, that can be done with a compatible browser no problem but they need to be able to click on links.  Do I just need to set up a separate website for them?

    Anybody got this?
    I've got 2 drives, and  only the bottom one works after the 10.7 rollout? Doesn't appear that the other one is even recognized in the system profiler anymore.
    Surely there's someone that  knows wth is going on here...?

  • I can no longer render in FCP 6 after upgrading to an AMD Radeon HD 7970 3072 MB

    Hey,
    I purchased a AMD Radeon HD 7970 3072 MB that was modified to work on a Mac from MacVideoCards.com.
    I'm editing with FCP 6 and I find that I'm unable to render files anymore.
    I get the specific effect name followed by error.
    Would this be related to the card and would you know how to fix this?
    I've also notice when I start the computer up, it stays on the grey screen longer than it did when I had the original card (512 mb).
    I had my 2.26 8 core converted to a 3.46 12 core.
    I currently have 32 GB of ram 1333 MHz.
    1tb Hard drive.
    I'm also running OS X 10.9.5.
    If you could be any assistance I'd appreciate it.

  • Can no longer open BOTH DVD drives after upgrade

    OK...I have a Mac Pro, and pre Lion I had NO PROBLEM using F12 and opt-F12 to open both of my Superdrive trays. However, after Lion, F12 AND opt-F12 BOTH OPEN THE BOTTOM SUPERDRIVE ONLY, and I cannot access my upper superdrive.
    Am I missing some sort of preference setting that needs to be changed? If so, I haven't been able to find it. If this is a known bug I have not been able to find any info on it.
