ARD 3.6 Admin on 10.8 having issues connecting to 10.6 machine.

basically i have no issues connecting to any of the 10.7 machines in the office (all have 3.6 client installed now).
have no issues connecting to 10.7 machines that have dual monitors (most).
no issues with the few 10.4 and 10.5 machines i still have. nor any of the Xserves on 10.6 nor one single-screen 10.6 desktop i have.
BUT... there is *1* 10.6 machine that i can not connect to. the only main difference between it and other 10.6 machines is that it has dual monitors.
when it connects i only can see the external monitor showing up. then just pure black on the primary laptop screen. if i switch views to show one or the other... stays the same. a black screen on the main laptop display. if i switch to the black screen one and turn off 'scaling' i can only see the bottom half of the screen... but placed in the upper half of the viewer (with black beneath it). i can interact with it... but only with the things i can see on the bottom of the screen.
if i swap which is the "main" screen on the client in Displays (dragging title bar to other screen) ... there is no change. i can only see the external.
on a few of the 10.7 machines with dual monitors i *did* see a similar problem after installing 3.6 client. but after a restart they have been perfectly fine. only happened on a few machines though. not all.
so i restarted that dual-monitor 10.6 machine (it leaves the office frequently lately) and there was no change. turned Remote Management off / on. no change. resintalled the 3.5.3 ARD Client (no 3.6 on 10.6) ... no change.
the only change i did see... was that my ARD admin no longer can connect to it at all now (!!!). never times out either. just "Connecting" forever. however with direct client-style Screen Sharing i could connect. and there was no change.
the client machine itself is a Late 2009 MacBook (rubber bottom style). 2.26 C2D with 4GB RAM.
anyone else seen anything similar with 10.6 machines with dual-monitors connecting from a ARD 3.6 Admin on 10.8?
the machine itself can't be upgraded beyond 10.6 for the time-being (it needs a couple PPC apps with no replacements that are Intel). so that currently isn't an option.

I have similar issues.
10.7.4 running ARD 3.6. Connecting to laptops running 10.6.... "when it connects i only can see the external monitor showing up. then just pure black on the primary laptop screen."
Trying the same thing from ARD 3.5.2 running on a 10.6.8..... same problem.
Trying the same things from ARD 3.4 running on 10.5.8.... works perfectly well. Can switch between dual or either views......

10.9.2 machines having issues connecting to open directory

So i've set up a new mac mini with 10.9.2 and the most recent Server App. I managed to bind a 10.8.5 macbook air 11" and have had no issues, but when I started testing on the new machines (brand new iMac 27") with 10.9.2 im having issues, tested on my machine running 10.9.2 and another 10.8.5 machine to replicate, only the 10.9 machines are having issues. This is what im seeing in the console when i try to log in (names changed for security)
4/16/14 7:29:08.266 PM SecurityAgent[1568]: User info context values set for new.user
4/16/14 7:29:08.337 PM opendirectoryd[22]: GSSAPI Error: Miscellaneous failure (see text (Server (krbtgt/[email protected]) unknown (negative cache))
4/16/14 7:29:08.338 PM authorizationhost[1622]: Failed to authenticate user <new.user> (error: 9).
ive done a permissons check, this mac mini is only running profile manager and open directory, no other services...
Please Help!

Many, if not most, Open Directory problems can be resolved by taking the following steps. Test after each one, and back up all data before making any changes.
1. The OD master must have a static IP address on the local network, not a dynamic address.
2. You must have a working DNS service, and the master's hostname must match its fully-qualified domain name. To confirm, select the server by name in the sidebar of the Server application window, then select the Overview tab. Click the Edit button on the Host Name line. On the Accessing your Server sheet, Domain Name should be selected. On the Accessing your Server sheet, change the Host Name, if necessary. The server must have at least a three-level name (e.g. "server.yourdomain.com"), and the name must not be in the ".local" top-level domain, which is reserved for Bonjour.
3. The primary DNS server used by the master must be 127.0.0.1 (that is, itself) unless you're using another server for internal DNS. The only DNS server set on the clients should be the internal one, which they should get from DHCP if applicable.
4. Follow these instructions to rebuild the Kerberos configuration on the master.
5. If you use authenticated binding, check the validity of the master's certificate. The common name must match the hostname and domain name. Deselecting and then reselecting the certificate in Server.app has been reported to have an effect in some cases.
6. Unbind and then rebind the clients in the Users & Groups preference pane. Use the fully-qualified domain name of the master.
7. Reboot the master and the clients.
8. Don't log in to the server with a network user's account.
9. Export all OD users, delete them, turn off OD, turn it back on, and import. Ensure that the UID's are in the 1001+ range.

After Upgrading to IOS 5.1 I am having issues connecting to the WIFI

After updating to IOS 5.1 i am having ptoblems connectng to the WIFI.
If I reboot my wireless route it will connect

I have upgraded the router to the latest rev.. Still does not work... My computer connects fine and my wifes phone connects fine

If you are having issues connecting to wifi with your Ipad, READ THIS

My son recently could not connect to the home wifi. After almost a year of having no issues, it came on overnight sort-of-speaking. I spent over three hours doing all the resets and tried anything that was talked about online. This could be your issue too. WHEN YOU SET UP YOUR ROUTER, IT WILL HAVE A PASSCODE/PASSWORD/PASSPHRASE (different routers may call it differently), this is usually a series of letters and numbers. YOU WILL ALSO SET UP A PASSWORD TO ACCESS YOUR HOME NETWORK FROM ANY OF YOUR DEVICES. THE TWO ARE VERY DIFFERENT, THE PASSWORD THAT THE IPAD WANTS IS NOT THE NETWORK PASSWORD, IT IS THE PASSWORD OF THE ROUTER.
This makes no sense to me, but it worded. I have a CISCO router and Mercury Net for an Internet provider. As I was working on getting my issue solved, I ran across a post that said this same thing about a different router and provider, so I thought why not try it, nothing to lose. IF IT WORKED FOR TWO DIFFERENT ROUTERS AND PROVIDERS, THIS COULD BE YOUR PROBLEM AS WELL.
To start with, I did not know the passphrase to my roouter. I reset the router to factory default and followed a few steps for security and other things. Along the reset, there was a page that showed the passphrase. If you do not have your router passphrase, this may be your best bet. I am by no means a professional when it comes to computers, but I am not affraid to try a few things when needed. This was not too hard and it will not be for you either.
Good Luck
If you need more information, let me know, I will try to help.
Thanks for reading

I'm glad you had luck with this. I have the same issue, and i've replaced the droid turbo 4 times. I've tried it on 4 or 5 different wifi networks and it doesn't give me any type of speed at all.

Still ! having issues connecting Vista or XP PCs to Time Capsule disk

I know there are several posts on this subject, but I've followed most/all of them (as well as posts on other forums) and I still have not had any luck.
If anyone with experience in this can help me through it, I'd greatly appreciate it!
My setup is as follows:
* new 1TB Time Capsule
* macbook running 10.5.7
* Sony VAIO on XP Home w/SP3
* brand new Dell Vista Home Premium
* misc other equipment running on network w/o issue
All computers can access the TC network without issue.
I've tried to connect to the TC disk by both mapping the drive (using the TC IP or TC name) and using the AirPort Disk utility. While I've gotten various errors (do not have permission, cannot recognize name, etc), the most common error on both machines is "Could not connect. Enable NetBIOS and try again(53)". On both the XP and Vista, I've gone into the network properies>TCP/IP>advanced>WINS tab and clicked "Enable NetBIOS", but this has no effect.
While I've tried all settings with the same luck, my TC disk sharing is currently set to use accounts. I have unique accounts for the mac, XP, and vista. The mac can connect in every scenario I setup, of course.
I can get both the Vista and the XP to connect to a shared folder I've setup on the macbook hdd, but again, I cannot get the PCs to connect to the TC disk.
On occasion, I will see the TC name in the Vista's Network view. I have never seen in in the XP's network view. The strangest part to me is that on about 5 or so occasions, I have been able to go from not being able to connect to the TC disk to connecting by unplugging/replugging the TC's power cord. However, the connection between the Vista and the TC is usually lost within minutes and I'm back to square one (I've never been able to connect to the XP).
On the Vista, I have already tried the registry edit: HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\ and changing lmcompatibilitylevel to 1.
Is there a definitive solution known for this? My priority is to connect the Vista as the XP machine is dying. However, I added info about the XP in case it would help troubleshoot my issue.
If anyone has the expertise and patience to walk me through this, I'd be forever thankful. I have wasted WAAAAY too much time already, and I'm about to throw in the towel. I need a miracle!!
Message was edited by: todd needs help

The workgroup is the same on the TC disk setting, the XP, and the Vista. At least for me, the problem is caused by something else. The strangest thing I am seeing is that sometimes I can get the XP and/or Vista machine to connect by simply unplugging/replugging the power supply to the TC - this is only by cycling the TC and making no other changes. However, usually within 5-10 mins after connecting, the Explorer will stop responding and I'll be back to the same problem and getting errors like: network path does not exists; windows can see 10.0.1.1 but cannot connect; cannot connect, must enable NetBIOS and try again; etc
I am always able to ping the IP successfully, but connecting to the disk and STAYING connected has been a lost cause for me so far.
If I can't figure this out, I'll be forced to send files from the XP and Vista to the macbook hdd, and then put the files on the TC disk. That's a solution that I'd be disappointed in, seeing as the the Apple store was very convinced that there would be no issue using the TC disk in my proposed network.

Having issues connecting to folders - with a twist!

Hi there
Im new to the world of macs, and quite frankly loving it so far, however i have a small problem which i would love some hlep with please.
anyway, my problem i see is well documented on a lot of forums and websites, but ive yet to find a solution in the past couple of hours that works for me, so i thought id come ask the people that know best.
Ok so i have my xp machine, which i want to connect to my mac, nothing odd there i hear you say, well, ive gone through the usual steps, tried to map network drive to \\192.168.0.103\grahammasters <-- my "short" name on the mac lol
and not a thing, well thats not true, i get an error message about not finding it, funny thing is if i go to view network computers i see it, so i click it and it says something about not being accessable, and the path could not be found
So where is this different from everyone else then?
well, i go to the other room, sit down, pick up my mac keyboard, click "network" and voilla, i can access the stuff from my pc no problem.
So im stumped, sorry if im just being a complete noob, but i just cant crack this.
Information that may be useful:
- both PC and mac are on the same workgroup
- windows file sharing is enabled on the mac and an account selected
- tried turning firewall off on pc in case that made a difference, but it may be my wireless routers firewall?
- when using personal web site thing, i can connect to the original webpage on the mac from the xp machine.
As far as i can see everything "should" be ok, so any light shed on this would be sweet.
Cheers in advance

An update to the OS was made availible a few days ago which corrected the windows -> mac mini (intel) communications.

Having issues connecting to internet after CenturyLink fiasco

After the CenturyLink nationwide internet outage, my mac mini will connect to internet, but the thing is that I will start an internet browser, it will sit there for about five minutes looking up the site, then it'll tell me that it won't connect. Tried restarting, tried to check if it's the browser, switched between internet connections, turned AirPort on and off, all to no help. The Diagnostic won't help, and I'm frustrated. The Mac I own is a 2006 Mac Mini that is running 10.5.8, and it has always been able to connect to the internet. Please help! Every other machine works fine except for the mac. I don't have any idea what to do!

TS3297 Anybody else having issues connecting to the App Store after iOS 6.0 update? I am using an iPod 4th gen and am having issues with a blank screen on the App Store.

My 4th gen ipod touch won't connect to the App Store after I updated to ios6.0. It just gives me a blank screen no message or anything.

hi! im using an ipad2 and updated to ios6 last 3days ago. since then my app store is blank and is prompting an error saying cannot connect to itunes.

HT4889 I am having issues connecting my G5 desktop to my new Mac OS X 10.7.4.

I have tried using the migration assistant. It will not go beyond my selecting a migration method - From another Mac. Nor am I able to use the system preferences file sharing options outlined on apple support. I am not permitted to select the internet sharing as instructed in step 3 (in issues with migration section)... so cannot proceed from there. Using the target option to transfer files isn't working either. Help!

See Pondini's Setup New Mac guide. Then, consider wiping the new Mac, reinstalling via the Recovery HD, and migrating on first boot using the Setup Assistant. Alternatively, contact Apple Service, iMac Service or Apple's Express Lane and let them deal with it. Do note that if you have AppleCare's protection plan and you're within 50 miles (80 KM) of an Apple repair station, you're eligible for onsite repair since yours is a desktop machine. IIRC, this also applies to newly purchased machines

I'm SUDDENLY having issues connecting to my home router, any one else

I was connecting fine until today. Had some intermittent issues connecting before, but not it just remains not connected. Have reset network, toogled wifi switch etc., Nothings working...o' yeah, restored it too.

Did you try rebooting the router?
Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

Anyone having issues connecting to the network server today?

I just upgraded to the iPhone 5. After I restored my new phone, I was unable to use iMessage. I tried to sign in, but I keep getting a message saying "unable to connect to the network server. Try again" Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

There has to be a problem on the server side. So many times before the system status indicates there is not problem and everything is fine, but that is not always the case. I spent hours on the phone one day with the same issue and it was a waste of my time because it turned out to be a problem with the servers. It took a long time for the problem to get fixed and what I learned is that no one typically wants to admit there is a problem on the apple side and not the device/user account. The last problem took almost 24 hours to fix and what was so bad was the amount of time I wasted with technical support trying various things to try to fix what couldn't be fixed on my end. Fix the servers problem apple!

I have this all new ipad4 and recently it is having issues connecting to wifi and logging into mails

I'm experiencing troubles with my ipad connecting to wifi. It would detect even right passwords as wrong where in it would connect to open networks without any troubles. This thing is also happening with my mail login. I can't login into my other mail accounts other than icloud as it would detect password entered as wrong. I'm so sure that I typed the password right and there are issues with the keyboard either. I've always checked caps lock and language I'm using are appropriate and there are absolutely no flaws when I'm typing passwords. Please someone help me rectify this and also share it here if you're experiencing the same problem.
P.S. I've gone so far that even resetting didn't work.

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

Having trouble connecting after upgrading network

Hi. I'm currently running 10.5.5 on a 17inch MacBook Pro, and have two roommates running 10.5 and 10.4 on two different MacBooks. I used to run our apartment network (from a cable modem) over a AirPort Express Basestation Model #A1084, that was two years old. Last week, I upgraded to a brand new Airport Extreme. After setting it up as a replacement for the Express, I've had no problems, but my roommates are having issues connecting. One claims it takes up to 40 minutes for him to finally connect to the network, and after that, internet is still sketchy.
Since I'm having no real problems, I'm curious what could possibly be a problem. Any help?

May be worth trying the general iOS Wifi troubleshooting first. I don't think they've updated it yet for iOS7, but all the steps should be pretty much the same.
