Windows 7 Backup is not accepting my username/password when trying to back up to my network

When trying to Backup (and/or Create a System image) onto my Network  w/Windows 7 Professional, after entering my username and password, I get the following pop up message: "The specified network location cannot be used. Verify the path points
to a correct network location and that the supplied credentials can be used for write access to the folder." Details further show " The specified service does not exist as an installed service (0x80070424)"
I have no problems dragging and dropping anything across my network or accessing any part w/Explorer. Originally I had no password set up at all, but set one up just to try and satisfy the Backup setup windows. I've also turned off all Firewall protection
and Anti-virus software. Still no luck. Am on a Home network/Home group, not a  Domain.
I've successfully done this in the past with no problems. I don't know what changed - obviously something did.
I've searched the web for answers, but so far have not found any - this is my first post specifically asking for help.
Is it even worth the trouble if I can create an image onto disks or an external hard drive directly connected via USB. Win7 Professional is supposed to Backup to the Network and that is what I would really like to do. Rem: PC - Personal Computer.
Any help would be appreciated - thanks in advance.

Thanks for your response. I'm trying to back up to an external hard drive connected directly to my router (via usb). It's a small home network and permissions on all computers are set to share. Originally I set up no password login on the computers. That's
how I'm able to drag and drop and access any file on any computer from any other computer. I've set the router permissions to access the attached hard drive as well - have tried that (router) username an password combination as well when asked - didn't
expect it to work, and it didn't. I've now set the user login (one account (admin)) on ea. computer to the same combination, hoping it would help the backup issue. Didn't work either. It does not matter what  I set the network backup path to (in the Win7
Backup prompt), be it the external hard drive on the router, another computer or anything else on the network, I get the same response. Homegroup permissions on all computers are set to the same. I really only want the convenience of an Image Backup -
to my network - without having to make disks or attaching an external hard drive directly to the laptop.

  • Server does not recognize my username/password when trying to email photos

    I am trying to mail photo's from my Iphoto's through my email account.  However each time I try to send the pics I get a message that the server does not recognize my username/password.  I have a password for my Bell sympatico account which is the account I am trying to use, but when I enter that password I get the does not recognize message.  I then tried to use my Apple password and again same message.
    Thank you to anyone who can help me
    Maureen

    Hi Bob,
    The following is exactly what I do,  I go to IPHOTO and click on the photo I want to send, then I go to the Share menu and insert the email address where I want it sent.  In that message it shows my other account which is my email address that I use all the time for all my correspondance.  So I have that as the address I am sending from
    Then I hit send and a text box comes up saying there is some text related to the photo looks like you could put a description here so I just hit Send anyway.  Then I hit the send key and that is when the message box pops up with my complete email address with ;smtp.me.com" at the end . None of those letters or characters are in my email address.  Any help you can offer I am greatly appreciative!
    Cheers

  • Why will Adobe not accept my Verification Code when trying to email pictures?

    Why will Adobe not accept my Verification Code when trying to email pictures as it is the code they sent me?
    Message was edited by: MrsChar

    Hi,
    It might help if you could tell us your version of PSE and your operating system.
    In between requesting the verification code and trying to apply it, you didn't change any of the settings in Edit -> Preferences -> Sharing did you?
    Did you use Copy & Paste to copy the verification code from the email to PSE?
    On the page that is asking for the code, you can always click on the resend button and it will send you the code again - worth a try.

  • Forms Services: Invalid username/password when trying to use Forms Utility

    In Oracle Application Server Control, Forms Services, I clicked on Forms-> Forms Utility-> In the Command text field, I typed "ps" then I clicked <Submit>.
    A username/password form is displayed. I entered the username/password then clicked on OK button.
    The following error message appeared, although the username/password provided was for sure correct (they are the ones I used when I started the Oracle AS Control in the first place):
    Error: oracle.sysman.emSDK.emd.comm.RemoteOperationException Check the User Name and Password
    Also I got the same message when I tried to stop a session.
    Am I right that I should use the administrator username/password used to start the Oracle AS Control? If yes, why I am gotten this message?

    Frank,
    - user credential should be OS userid/password of user who installed iAS.
    I had tried to log on using OS userid/password.
    - set "Log on as a batch job" priviledge.
    privilege had been already assigned.
    - check if "allow service to interact with desktop" is enabled
    it had been already enabled.
    - If your system does not have MKS TOOLKIT, it won't work. However, this page is designed for future enhancement. See Online Help.
    1. What is MKS Toolkit?
    2. It is stated in the documentation that it will be enhanced in the future but the command "ps" should work. It is clearly stated that I should see a list of processes.
    Thanks Frank.
    Merry Christmas to you by the way.

    Hello farahani hairon nizar,
    If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

  • Network diagnostics is not accepting the WEP password on my wireless router. I know the password is case sensitive and was very careful in entering it but it still gives me the "Unable to join Wi-Fi Network" error message.

    I need help setting up the wireless router for my iMac. I did not know the WEP password when I first turned it on to set things up. Now that I know the WEP password I cant get Network Diagnostics to accept it. I know it is case sensitive and was very careful when I entered the password. What should I do?

    Hi, unfortunately WEP is about as secure as a bar of gold lent to a Gang Den! It can be broken in under 30 seconds these days!
    If the PW is ASCII, try enclosing it in qoute marks, if Hex try preceding it with the & or % sign.
    Also, is the Router set to only allow connect ion to MAC addies of the Interface?

  • Server does not recognize my username password

    Hello   I just tried to change my account on IPHOTO's to email some photo's.  I am still getting the message that the server does not recognize my username/password.

    in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it

    Where are you trying to get Flash Player from? Downloading is different from installing but many malicious websites offer to supply Flash Player as a means of installing malicious software and gathering personal information (e.g., passwords). You should get Adobe Flash only from Adobe and this link lets you download the full installer (Mac OS X (Intel) DMG) and run it locally. At that point OS X will ask for your password and if you've been using it successfully for other purposes (e.g., changing some items in System Preferences), it should work there too. Note that once Flash Player is installed, a Preference panel is installed too, and in it you can authorize Adobe to update Flash automatically.
