Can't access ArchLinux AUR/BBS/WIKI from within VirtualBox

Hi there,
I'm havin a strange issue since a few weeks. I'm running ArchLinux as a guest in VirtualBox with Windows 7 as a host. It's my working computer in the office and here's the problem:
I can't access the ArchLinux AUR/BBS/WIKI sites from within my virtual macine. Therefore I can't use yaourt, which is a problem for me. If I try to open the sites in the browser I get a timeout. And if I try to wget aur.archlinux.org I get no output after it says "connected". Pinging works fine. And I have no problems at all with my Windows host machine. Could you help me finding the cause of the problem? Where should I look for an error message? I'm looking forward to your answers. Thanks in advance.

First of all thank you for your reply and excuse me for answering so late. The holidays came in between ;-) So here we go:

I'm using a NAT configuration.

I cant' due to missing admin rights.
ewaller wrote:On the windows host, what are the (I think Redmond calls them) Profiles of the networks? I think these are called Public, Home, Office. They have different levels of trust.
The real LAN connection is a "Domain network". The VirtualBox one is "Public network".

In my virtual machine any websites except AUR, BBS and the Arch wiki are accessable/browsable..
ewaller wrote:Can you browse a server on the Windows host?
On my Windows host all websites (including AUR, BBS and the Arch wiki) are accessable/browsable.

VirtualBox: 10.0.2.15

How can I access my home security DVR from the internet?

My Time Capsule (as a router and not a bridge) blocks me from accessing my home security DVR from the internet. I can access it from other computers connected to my LAN but not from the internet. I guess it's a firewall setting issue. I can't add the home security application to the list of firewall allowed incoming connections since it's a Windows app that I cannot install on my Mac. On the other hand, the app is installed on my old PC but I can't access the Mac firwall settings from the PC and add the security app (If that's the problem).
My DVR is connected to a Netgear switch which is connected to the Time Capsule which is connected to a Cisco modem provided by Comcast. I thought one of the modem ports had to be opened by Comcast. That was not the issue. After spending 2 hours on the phone with Comcast going in circles talking to 10 different overseas agents, they concluded the Netgear switch was blocking me from accessing the DVR. I think they are wrong and that it's a Mac firewall problem. HELP!!! Does anyone know what could be the problem and how to solve it?

Did you forward the required ports in the TIme Capsule? If not it won't work.. it has nothing to do with firewall unless the DVR is plugged into the Mac. If it is plugged into a switch you need to lock the IP of the DVR and find out what ports are required.. usually just port 80, ie html.. but it could be some others.
Since Apple do not use upnp to open ports.. the TC will have to manually be provided with the ports.. Apple use PMP-NAT that is not used by the rest of the known world.. Just to ensure you stay in the camp.

Get info then check permissions then add your curent user name (it was probably different on old Mac) and give your username full read/write permissions.

Are you talking about an iCloud backup? If so, no, an iCloud backup cannot be viewd, it can only be restored to another iOS device.

What a crappy design. This is where Android is so much better. It seems to me like you have no control over your iPhone. It does whatever Apple has designed it to do without asking you first. On Android you can actually go in see all folders, document files, photo files etc and you have so much more control of everything. Apple s..cks!

How can i access my home shared videos from my iPad2 if I now have iTunes match?

how can i access my home shared videos from my iPad2 if I now have iTunes match?

That's exactly what I meant, but for some reason Home Sharing stopped working on my iPad2 once I activated iTunes Match.
Since then, I waited for iTunes Match to finish setting up and scanning my iTunes library on my MacBook Pro and I restarted my iPad2. Both Home Sharing and iTunes Match are now up and running smoothly!
Thanks for the reply!

Can't access iCloud mail or contacts from PC

I can't access my iCloud emails or contacts from my home PC (Windows 7). iCloud.com either returns an error message or else fails to respond at all.
All other sites I try are behaving normally, so it would appear to be an iCloud problem rather than anything at my end.
Here is the error message I get from iCloud:
"Mail could not be loaded
"There was a problem loading the application due to a possible network error or missing resources. Please try again.
"Details
"By clicking 'send to Apple' you agree that Apple will collect and use this information..."
I have tried this many times. I either get this error message, or else nothing at all happens. All other web sites work fine. I have no other problems with my PC in any application, so this is almost certainly a problem with iCloud. Until it is solved, iCloud is nearly useless to me, as I can only use it from one device, my iPad. On my PC, I reach iCloud by clicking on the link within the iCloud application.
I would greatly appreciate some help in dealing with this problem in accessing iCloud from my PC. (No Mac-based solutions, please: I don't have one.)

Today this worked for the first time on my PC, at last. Had just updated iCloud software to version 2.1.2 - could this have affected the operation of the web site on my computer? Seems odd. Anyway, nice that it finally works. Suggest others who have the same problem try this.

Can you access and edit shared contacts from directory from home?

Sounds like you've paid twice. Ouch.
Log in at the Apple Store (using the ID you've used for the purchase) and review your "Software Download History".
This is where you can download any update.
Be sure to use the correct installer for your OS (there are two installers in the Package).
It should be installed into HD/System/Library/QuickTime folder and be version number 6.4.1
The installer does have two different versions and maybe you've picked the wrong one?
