10.6.2 sees XP, but XP won't see 10.6.2 machines
So this seems to be the opposite problem of what everyone else is having.
We have a leopard and a snow leopard machine that could see and be seen on WinXP as of Friday.
Monday, the Snow Leopard machine can still connect to Win XP, but can no longer see or connect to the Snow Leopard machine. Restarts don't help. Our success in connecting was via \\name of machine\account
Can't find anyone who has had this issue...yet!
I can login to Win XP from my 10.6.2 and 10.5.8 machine via command+K > smb://ip address
I can login to 10.5.8 machine from Win XP through network places using "fwdslash, fwdslash name of machine\user"
I cannot login to 10.6.2 machine from Win XP through network places using "fwdslash, fwdslash name of machine\user"
although I did once.

Hi RJS45,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPhone is not recognized by iTunes, start with the troubleshooting steps in this article:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538

Since upgrading to version 11, my iPod will not sync properly. I get errors 68 and 69, iPod not found, no disc in drive, wrong volume in drive and iPod cannot be sync'd because I don't have enough access privledges. I have restored the iPod a bunch of times, reloaded iTunes twice and sacrifices a virtual virgin to a virtual god. Visited Genius Bar in Columbia, MD once and I have scheduled a second visit for this Friday, 1/4/13.
Is anyone else having these problems?This is the iPod touch forum. I requested the moderators to move your post to the iPod classic forum.

Printer sees wifi, Laptop sees wifi, but laptop doesn't see printer
I'm trying to connect my new LaserJet 100 color MFP M175nw all in one to my laptop. I've already set it up via USB on my desktop and that went off without a hitch. I got the printer on the wifi (I can print out a Network Summary and Config Report that list the printer's IP and specifically say it's connected to my network) but now I'm running into problems getting my laptop to "see" the printer. Each time I try to run the install, I get the "Can't Find Product(s)" message. I've got my firewall off and I've tried using the troubleshooting methods on the HP site but nothing seems to work.
I've tried manually adding a printer through Windows, but it's not able to find the printer by IP address or hostname.
Please help before I beat the nice new printer with a bat "Office Space"-style.
This question was solved.
View Solution.It looks like we fixed it. This is what we did:
1) Installed the HP software via USB on the desktop
2)Confirmed that the printer was on the network by pressing the WPS button on the router and pressing holding the WiFi button on the printer for 2 seconds, then seeing a connection successfull message on the printer
3) Still on the desktop, added it as a wireless printer through Windows (Start > Devices and Printers)
4) Shared the printer with all users on the network
5) Switched to the laptop and used WIndows to add a printer. Once we shared the printer from the desktop, the laptop was able to see it.
I am going to go back and try connecting the laptop to the printer via USB to finish installing the scanning software etc. But I was able to print a doc wirelessly so I'm satisfied. -
Windows 7 sees iMac but iMac can't see Win7 in Finder
I'm a brand new convert from the PC world to the Mac world and I'm trying my darndest to get this PC off my desk. I figured I would just get rid of the monitor and use remote desktop or CORD or something to control my PC through my new iMac. However, I'm having ALL sorts of problems and I think it's all related to the fact that my iMac can't see my WIN7 PC.
I have a new 21.5 iMac with snow leopard. My PC is running WIN7 64 bit. I've gone into the network preferences on my iMac and put in the workgroup name. That must have worked because my WIN7 machine can see my iMac just fine. However, when I go into finder and click on Network, it comes up with nothing. I CAN see my partner's macbook when it's on but I just cannot get my WIN7 machine to show up in the finder. My thought is that if I can get finder to see the computer, I should be fine. Another small detail, I WAS able to use finder and "connect to server" - type in the PC ip address and was able to connect to the PC that way. In that, that's how I moved all my photos and music over from my PC to my Mac. But for some reason, I just can't get it to show up in Finder - or connect to it from MS Remote Desktop Client.
I'm really hoping that someone has an answer for me because this is getting more and more frustrating! Anyone out there a mac/pc networking guru who can help me out?Hi Jeff,
Did you try VNC?
This link below states ...
"Anyone using a Home or Home Premium variant of Windows will need to resort to using the aforementioned VNC software to connect to computers remotely."
http://windows7news.com/2009/11/21/windows-7-remote-tools-remote-desktop-connect ion/
According to that site there is a solution .. it does mention the Apple remote desktop protocol
.. maybe that might be another solution to check into. -
Computer sees monitor-but monitor does not see computer.
I have a MacBookPro with the older 29 pin DVI out.
I own an 8.4" HD monitor for video production and want to use it for editing.
I am trying to get my Marshall V-R84DP-HD monitor to see the computer and it does not recognize it.
I have Mac OS X Version 10.5.6.
Connection is a single link DVI-D male-male cable.
I have set the computer to every listed resolution and it does see the Marshall in 1024x768.I'm still not sure if what you have is typical. You have a "TV" icon in the menu bar - is it the "displays" icon"? Is there a drop down menu when you click on it? Are not the first 2 items in the drop down menu "Detect Displays" and "Turn on Mirroring" followed by a list of the 2 displays and a subset of their resolution options?
If not, you may have some other configuration I am not aware of. "Detect displays" is supposed to search out displays if you reconfigure them. Mirror or span is selected from the drop down menu, or by going to System Prefs/displays/, then you may need to click on "gather windows" to get the display windows, which normally show up in each respective display, to all show up in the primary display (with the menu bar). Then find the Arrangement tab, and there is a check box for mirroring. Trying to switch between span/mirror can be helpful in troubleshooting.
I'm wondering, though, if you have some weird DVI issue. It may pay to just get the SVGA adapter and try that, rather than waste too much time on an obscure issue. -
Retrieved old app from Time Machine, but iTunes won't see it
I'm running 10.6.1. iTunes 9, iPhone 3.1. I'm trying to revert to an older version of an app. I retrieved the older app from Time Machine and I can see it in Finder in my iTunes/Mobile Applications folder. iTunes doesn't see it though. Is there a way to make iTunes see it?
I just discovered that I have to import the reverted app's file into my iTunes Library (File -> Add To Library). Nevermind.

Airport utility won't see AEBS and I cannot setup
I have a new AEBS dual band (MC340LL/A), and I have been trying to set it up. My current system is an Intel iMac (Leopard) and macbook pro(Snow Leopard) that has been using the Internet via an old Snow? airport (M8209LL/A).
I have Airport Utility 5.51 installed, but I cannot get it to recognize the base station. The amber light flashes, but no recognition so I cannot set it up.
I tried unplugging my old Airport and disabling the network, I tried connecting the new AEBS directly to the laptop via LAN, I tried a hard reset (I hope) many times, but it won't see the base station. Of course it sees no base station, and since I have the same Airport utility on both Macs, I cannot see either base station when I try to hook up both of them.
The old base station is still working even though I cannot see it (hence this message), and I am not worried about it, beacuse I plan on retiring it, if I could ever get the new one set up.
Please help. What am I doing wrong?"Bridge" is technically the more correct way to configure the AEBS as you only want one device....in this case the Linksys....handling DHCP and NAT service. You have two devices both doing this now. May or may not cause some issues down the line.
If you connect the old Snow to your AEBS using an ethernet cable from a LAN port on the AEBS to the WAN port on the Snow, and configure the wireless network with exactly the same name, security and password as the AEBS, that will in effect extend the wireless signal, but only at b/g levels. The Snow must be configured as a bridge to do this.
There may be some issues with security settings here. I don't remember much of anything about the Snow. I doubt that it has WPA2 Security capability, and that's probably what the new AEBS is using. May take some experimentation to see if you can match settings between the two devices.
Glad that the factory reset did the trick and that you got things going -
I just installed iTunes 7 and it's the best upgrade to iTunes in, well, forever. But it won't see my 3rd gen iPod. I'm connected to my PC via firewire and haven't had any problems in the past with iTunes seeing my iPod. I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting, I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes.
It sees my iPod as a hard drive in My Computer, so the computer sees it. Just not iTunes. What steps can I take to get iTunes to see it?
Thanks for any help!I'm having the same problem with I-pod recognition
with 2 30gb Videos. I have tried to update the ipod
and even reset it, but as soon as you tell it to
perform the function it drops the connection with the
ipod. From the looks of the forum this is not the
only problem with Version 7. If anyone has a solution
let me know. We use these for our radio station
events so we need to get back up and running. Thanks!
How do you manually update the iPod? How do you reset it (do you mean hitting play and pause at the same time for a few seconds?)? Apple has made it really convoluted to manually update your iPod software with iTunes 7. If I could, I'd just run the updater, erase the iPod, and start from scratch. But with iTunes 7, I can't find a way to run the updater.
It'd be awfully nice if the folks at Apple acknowledged these problems publically and at least gave us reassurance that this HORRIBLE problem will be fixed. They broke their flagship product. Their least obscenely overpriced product. Something that everyone and their mother has. It's silly.
btw, I connected my iPod via FW to my housemate's macbook pro and iTunes 7 recognized it instantly. Just figured I'd give a bit more info. -

ThinkPad Bluetooth Sees Other BT Objects, but Won't See My BT Mouse
My ThinkPad T420S Bluetooth is happily paired with my BT Printer and with a ThinkPad Bluetooth Mouse. It will also "see" my BlueTooth phone when I make the phone's BT discoverable. When I tried to pair it with a new Lenovo BT Mouse or with a new Targus Bluetooth Comfort Laser Mouse by using Bluetooth's "Add Device" Box, however, neither mouse would appear in the "Add Device" box.
I have a ThinkPad 420S, Windows 7, 64 bit, Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator (driver version 6.1.7601.17889) and ThinkPad Bluetooth 3.0 (driver version 6.5.1.4500). The Device Manager says that my Bluetooth is working properly.
When my ThinkPad failed to "see" a new Lenovo ThinkPad Laser Mouse, I assumed that the new mouse must be faulty and returned it. But now that it won't see a new Targus BT Comfort Laser Mouse, either, I'm puzzled. In both cases, the mice had new batteries.
What baffles me is that my ThinkPad's bluetooth can see other discoverable BT devices -- including my old Lenovo BT Laser Mouse, which I was trying to replace because the left button has started to get temperamental.
Puzzling, no? Any suggestions?Upon further research I have learned that A2DP is not supported with any OSX 10.4.11. I think using Jack might be as close as I can get.

Can't import photos into iPhoto-- it sees them but won't import
I've been using iPhoto with my Mac Mini for almost a year now without a single issue (that's the main reason I bought a mac). I believe I have iPhoto 08 (I bought the computer 1 year ago). I have a newer Canon point-and-shoot that I've been using. About 1 month ago I did a software update to iPhoto, so it's pretty much up to date.
Everything has been fine for almost a year, then all the sudden, iPhoto hangs when I try to import my latest batch of photos. It will pull them into the import preview window (I can see all of them), but when I try to "Import All" it just hangs. I have to turn off the camera just to get the program to unfreeze (after patiently waiting a few minutes). For some odd reason, just 1 of the 70 photos makes it in (there are a few videos, but they won't import either).
Here's the error message:
Unreadable Files: 69
The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data).

Any ideas? I'm desperate because there's some wonderful picks of our kids on there that I don't want to lose.
Thanks a bunchIt’s part of the basic install of OS X. So unless you deleted it then it’s there in your apps folder. If you have deleted it, it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. You will be able to extract the installation package using Pacifist.
Alternatively, if you’re using almost any camera +apart from a Canon+ then the camera card is visible on the desktop and you can drag the movie to the desktop using the Finder and import from there.
No matter what camera you use, if you pop the card from it into a USB Card Reader then it will be accessible via the Finder. Card Readers are inexpensive and all round a better idea.
Why use a Card Reader?
Because it’s safer: Less risk of your images being lost if your camera shuts down during transfer.
Because it saves the battery on your camera
Because it saves wear and tear on your camera ports
Because it’s almost always faster.

Itunes sees ipod, but doesn't see songs in ipod
Hi there!
I've updated itunes, updated and reset the ipod twice. Problem is that when I plug in the ipod, itunes will come up and it sees my ipod, but it won't show any of the content. If I drag songs from my library into my ipod icon, it will make like they're copying over, but when the ipod is disconnected i find that the songs haven't transferred.
In short: itunes opens, recognizes my ipod by name, but wont' show the content, and won't allow new content to move to the ipod.
It has worked before -- in fact, I have 10 gigs of mp3's on the ipod. I just can't get any more on (it's a new 30 gig ipod).
I appreciate any help you might give!
Thanks!I'm having the same problem! Any solutions?

Just got comcast triple play. Original ipad sees network but will not connect.
Just got comcast triple play. Original ipad sees network but will not connect.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button
