Can't access favourites (in network)

hi,
when i open my network (shift,comand,k) my laptop won't let me access any folders in the 'favouties' tab on the left. Once i open a tab my laptop freezes and the window closes. PLEASE HELP

Hi Juandi89,
I had the same problem (i think?).
We have a mac and another pc running windows 7 on our home network. After I upgraded to mavericks, when we tried to access files on my mac from the windows pc (as we stream media files from my mac onto the pc) it asked for a username and password to connect to my mac.
For the life of us we couldn't figure it out. I tried setting back the SMB option as well and it didn't work for me either. I was in the process of backing up all my files to downgrade to a lower version of osx!
But a friend told us to try entering the username and the password for my mac...and presto it worked! the windows pc can now see all the shared folders.
I'm not sure if this is the same problem you're having but thought I would share what worked for me.
If you have any questions (I'm not a techie tho), feel free to contact me.
Marissa

  • How can i access my wireless network?

    how can i access my wireless network at home?

    Does your iPad see your WiFi network - Settings>WiFi>Tap your network name, enter your password and tap join.
    If the iPad isn't seeing the network, try rebooting the router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.

    You have Acrobat Pro on your system. It will try to open PDFs, and of course it will fail. You must uninstall it. Then, you will need a PDF reader. So install Adobe Reader. That seems quite simple, but perhaps something is wrong. If anything goes wrong with these two steps (1) uninstall Acrobat Pro (2) install Adobe Reader, then please let us know the details.

  • Can't access Windows 7 network nor homegroup via router or ad-hoc

    I have a really annoying problem. I have 2 clean computers. They were formatted and Win 7 ultimate was installed on both computers. They have a PCI wireless card (D-Link DWA 525). Their hardware is identical, same motherboard, etc, beside the "server"
    is pentium 4 and the "client" is celeron.
    We have 2 routers and 1 modem. The first router, Airport Extreme, act as DHCP server, and provides the wireless network. The second router (TimeCapsule), connected thought ethernet to the first router, extends the wireless network (act as a bridge). I can connect
    to the network and the internet works fine.
    The problem is with the local network.
    I can see both computers on the network tab. I can ping both by IP and by name. I made a Homgroup on the computer "Server". The computer "client" joined. I can see the libraries. Both computer's firewall are disabled. All firewalls from
    the routers and the modem are disabled.
    Double-clicking the library on the Homegroup does nothing. Trying to access the shared folder by \SERVER or by the network tab gives error "network path not found".
    Basic settings, like file and sharing, etc, are on. Password sharing is off. Encryption is 40 - 50 (not the 128, I don't remember the specific number).This is both for Home and Work and Public networks.
    Because I couldn't access the network, I decided to make an ad-hoc. Same problems. Even with static IP (192.168.0.1 [server] and 192.168.0.3 [client], 255.255.255.0 subnet) and NetBios forced at enabled.
    I just can't make it work. I have tried a lot of info from here and other forums, but nothing has work. The worst is that another PC will join the network, but I haven't do it yet just because I can't make these PCs to work. As a test, I did put the other PC
    in the network (Win 7 Home), and the same problem applied.
    All the computers can see them in the Network tab, ping either ways with both IP and name, but when trying to access the pc over network, it gives network path not found error.
    Yes I have shared files.
    Troubleshooting both Homegroup and Network finds nothing wrong or just can't fix the problem.
    Please help!

    Hi,
    I tried and received only errors (i don't remember know which ones).
    However, I plugged the PCs via ethernet, let automatic IP address, and now I can access the network from both computers. Homegroups doesn't work because the network is public, but that isn't a matter right now, because I can access the files.
    This makes me thing if the problem is the network adapter. In the Advanced tab on Device Manager Properties, I have the follow options, which I don't have idea what are they for:
    AC_BE support APSD [disabled]
    AC_BK support APSD [disabled]
    AC_VI support APSD [disabled]
    AC_VO support APSD [disabled]
    APSD capable [disabled]
    Multimedia/Gaming Environment [Enabled]
    Roaming Sensitivity [Medium]
    WMM Capable [Enabled]
    Do you think some of that options are interfering?
    Thank you

  • I can't access my USB network drive connected to my router.

    I have a G5 that I was running Tiger, and could easily access a usb network drive connected to my router. As soon as I upgraded to Leopard, I sporadically get access, but usually not.
    I just purchased an iMac with Snow Leopard and then upgraded to Lion, but I have never had access to this drive.
    I can't get access with either Mac now, but I have no problem accessing the drive from a PC on the same home network, so I know the drive is connected properly, and is working properly.
    Any thoughts how to access this drive from my Macs?

    Let's say that the name of your drive is Hard Drive
    Check using AirPort Utility to get the IP address of your AirPort Extreme, for example you see that it is 10.0.1.1
    You'll need to know the device name for the AirPort Extreme. This is not the wireless password, it's the device password.
    On the PC, open My Computer
    Click on Tools and select Map Network Drive.
    Select the drive you want, "Z" for example
    On the next line for Folder, type in
    \\10.0.1.1\Hard Drive
    Click Finish
    Type in your user name
    Type in the device password for the AirPort Extreme

  • Can't access Mac over network since Mavericks update

    Help! Since the update to Mavericks I can't access my iMac over my home network using my Nexus 7 tablet. I used to do it flawlessly right before I updated from Mountain Lion.
    I was using ES File Explorer to browse my shared folders on my Mac from my Android Tablet right away and now I keep getting asked for a username and password to connect. I type it correctly but still not able to connect. I tried other file browing apps for my tablet (File Manger, AndSMB,...) but still unable to connect. The apps can scan my network and find the server address (iMac) but can't get access to it.
    I must say that the Tablet can access the internet so it's not Tablet network settings related.
    I tried the workaround found here http://cammodude.blogspot.ca/.  Still not working. Any suggestions?

    Try going back and checking the step 3 on the linked instructions for remote login where it mentions:
    Step 3: Now enable “Remote Login” in the Sharing menu of System Preferences.
    Read more: http://www.shoutpedia.com/transfer-files-mac-os-x-mavericks-android-phone-wifi-e asy-way/#ixzz30iEam8MC
    That's the part that will allow it.  I've got "Remote Login" checked there' and and then make sure you have whichever user(s)/groups added for the login you're using.  I have that set to Administrators and on then on my phone I have it set up with computer IP, port 22, my computer username which is a First Last type format with the space...whatever it normally says on your login screen on your computer or when you get prompted to allow software installs etc. and then the password.

  • What to do if you can't access a wifi network and showing you message that your airport has a self-assigned IP and cannot be connected to the internet?

    Hi,
    i am currently using 10.6.8 snow leopard
    i usually access internet through my broadband modem and wifi at home.
    i've been using our home wifi network for almost 1 week now (since it's new) and almost everyone at home use it as well.
    and im using my broadband everytime i go out.
    this last week, i went to a vacation and i use the wifi connection of the hotel where i stay in.
    my connection works fine and so i don't use my broadband anymore.
    then i got home..
    when i got home..  i tried to connect to our home wifi network again .
    like what im doing before, im clicking the airport icon on the top of my desktop,
    and since my airport is always on, the next step that im doing is to click the preferred network that i want to join and put the password on it.
    this is perfectly working in my macbook before i left.
    but now , it's not working to my laptop anymore! i can't connect to it!
    after putting the password and hitting the enter, the airport icon at the top will run, however after seconds it showing gray color with exclamation point on it!
    the alert is showing : No internet connection
    but the network i joined is still checked and showing full signal !
    i tried checking my Network under system preferrence and the airport tab in the left corner is showing me a message that
    my airport has the self-assigned IP address 169.***.****.** and will not be able to connect to internet!
    i don't know what happen and i dont understand why is this happening since everyone at home can still use and access our home wifi !!
    it's the same network that i'm trying to connect to anyway!
    i tried using my broadband instead to connect online and it works fine!
    but everytime i try to connect using wifi at home , again i cant connect!
    anyone can tell me what's going on?
    i haven't try joining other network anyway! but i'm planning to do so..
    can some one help me please??
    showing me a message that
    my airport has the self-assigned IP address 169.***.****.** and will not be able to connect to internet!

    and now, when i tried to check again my network preference below the airport tab is showing a message that
    "my airport does not have an IP address and cannot connect to the internet!"
    then after seconds it will goes back to the first message that
    "airport has the self assigned IP address etc....."
    i don't know whats going on now!
    airport tab is not showing green color anyway! i'ts always in yellow!
    i tried turning it on and off but nothing happen! HEEELLLLPP!!!!

  • Can you control when a user can have access to the network

    i want to set a time frame when users can be on network

    You do this using Timed Access in AirPort Utility.  It is possible to set daily time limits for each wireless device that connects to the wireless network.
    You can even have multiple rules for the same device. Example, a device could connect from 9 AM to 9PM Weekdays and from 9 AM to 11 PM on Weekends.
    For more information, click the Help menu at the top of the screen in AirPort Utility.
    Click AirPort Utility Help
    On the left panel of the next page, click on Setting up a Wi-Fi Network
    Select the following topics on the right:

    Thanks for the response!
    If I understand your questions correctly,
    1 - I'm attempting to access the switch across my network (via wired ethernet) from my admin workstation. The switch does not respond to network discovery attempts, including ping.
    2 - I'm unable to ping the switch or any device connected to it from my admin computer. Also, devices connected to the switch can't ping each other, the switch, or any network IP.
    3 - The only access I have right now is through the serial console.
    I should probably also mention that this switch is being configured on my bench before deployment - if I can get it to work.

  • Windows 7 media center MCE plug-in & Elements 8 - can not access catalog over network

    Hi,
    I have Elements 8 installed on windows 7 and want to use the Microsoft Media Center photoshop plugin to view photographs and slide shows held on a network share.  How do I configure the plug-in to find the catalog on the share ( at address  P:|Pictures ).
    All I can see is an entry for "My Catalog" on screen and a small number of black thumbnails.
    Thanks
    Kilraughts

    For some reason when using the "certified" MCE version of the Forceware drivers, after a short while all the buttons in the menus become "corrupted"
    The simple solution: use regular XP/2000 version of Forceware drivers. They still work perfectly in MCE2005, and the graphical corruption doesn't appear.

  • Can't access my MHNDHD network drive

    I havent used this network drive in a while, however since I'm off for the holiday break I wanted to backup a couple computers.
    When I went to reconnect teh ethernet cable adn recycle power to it the power light came on, then the status light went blue and then both lights went out.
    I unp-lugged it adn tried it again, nothing
    so I did it a third time and hit the reset button and got the same response.
    Is it DEAD?

    Hello LancerTX
    This usually means there is an issue with the firmware, the unit has failed, or possibly a wrong or faulty power adapter is being used. I recommend checking the power adapter as it would be the easiest to work on.  if it is the firmware or a controller issue, the best option would be to look into repurposing the internal drive if it tests ok using something like SeaTools

  • How can I access my internet network with the tablet?

    I have one of these DSL-2680 TalkTalk modem that you just press a button and then it sends the information necessary to access the network to your computer or tablet. Well, it is not working with my tablet and it keeps on asking me for a password. The password is only 5 digit long and the tablet says it needs to be at least 8 digits. I simply do not know what to do.

    Hve you not changed your modem's password from the default "admin" to something that's a bit more secure?

  • I can't access the AT&T network all of the sudden

    Hey guys and gals. I switched my phone off and when I turned it back on it seems to have broken. I can't access my wireless network any longer. I've tried turning "Airport Mode" on and off; I've turned it off and back on again; I've done a hard reset on the phone hardware; and last but not least I've done a "Restore" from inside iTunes. Anyone have any suggestions as to what to try next (other than just taking it in to the store)? Has this happened to any of you?

    What exactly is happening? Do you get "No Service"? Have you tried another location? (You might have a local network outage.)

  • New router, set up fine, but can't connect (iPhone) to network

    Hi everyone, I've done some reading hoping I'd come across something and not have to post what I'm sure is a redundant question, but here goes. I just got a new wireless router, a WRT110. I set it up and everything went perfectly, no issues. It's hardwired to my iMac, but my wife and I would like to use wireless for our iPhones and perhaps a laptop. So, to test it out, i got onto my iPhone. I found the network I had established so I thought everything would work smoothly. However, as soon as I entered my password, it said "Incorrect password for "network"" I went back and reviewed the text file that the setup put on my desktop and sure enough, the password I selected is indeed the one I'm entering, but it's not working. I thought maybe it would be a time thing, so I gave it about a half hour or so and still nothing. I'm entering the right password, so why can I not login? Kind of frustrating. Thanks for any help or tips.

    Hi!
    I have the same problem. My iPhone doesn't recognize my password. As you suggested, I change the security mode to Disabled and now, on my iPhone, I can see that my network is not locked but I can't access to the network. (''Unable to join the network''.
    Can you help me please ?
