Can't connect via Finder but works with everything else

The Time Capsule is working fine with Time Machine and Airport. However when I try to connect via Finder, it just says 'Connecting...' and never changes. When I hit 'Connect As...', nothing happens. I have rebooted the TC and deleted all passwords from the keychain but that didnt help. Latest OSX updates and firmware update installed.

I powered down and was relieved to hear the fan jolt and the drive spin so that looks good.
Wireless is currently the only method I've been using to connect to the TC with my macbook because as of right now I dont have a USB->ethernet adapter but I will pick one up later today to see if that changes anything. The cable modem is connected via ethernet though and that seems to be working fine.
The LED is solid green when the modem is plugged in and flashing orange when it is not.
Here is the log after a power cycle, at first I did not have the cable modem plugged in and attempted to access via Finder with no luck. Then shortly after, I plugged in the cable modem and tried Finder again. Its interesting that attempting to access the drive via Finder does not create any activity in the log.
I will try to cool down overnight and hope I can get at the data. At this point, my main goal is to retrieve the files. And then get a new local backup solution asap. I am currently doing a full online backup to Crashplan but with 500GBs, its going to be weeks before it finishes uploading.

IMac can't share via Samba but works with AFP

I have a home network with (almost) all Macs. Every computer shows up in the shared folder, but for some reason my iMac can't be connected to via Samba (error -36). It can be connected to via AFP.
The iMac CAN connect to other computers via samba though.
The reason I need samba to work is because I have a network streamer connected to my TV and it does not use AFP. I have successfully connected a ibook G4 to the streamer so basically once the iMac works on the network I think my problems are solved.
Message was edited by: igbee

This is solved. I believe when I upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard my netbios name was reset and allowed the Samba share to be accessed.

Since the update, I cannot print web pages--and yes, my printer works with everything else

with the new version of firefox, my printer does not work--and yes, it does work with everything else.

MBA won't connect to iPhone or Jambox via Bluetooth, but works with bluetooth Apple Mouse

MBA won't connect to iPhone or Jambox via Bluetooth, but works fine with bluetooth Apple Mouse. When trying to pair with the iPhone it says "The Bluetooth Network is unavailable. There was an error connecting to your device. Make sure the device is turned on and in range." When trying to connect to the Jambox it says "Bluetooth audio failed. There was an error connecting to your headset. Make sure it is turned on and in range. The audio portion of the program you were using may have to be restarted." The iPhone and Jambox pair together fine, and I have paired with both the iPhone and the Jambox easily in the past. I haven't updated anything - it just stopped working with these two devices. This is very frustrating.

I could not pair with Uconnect on a 2011 Jeep after upgrading to iOS 8.2 on an iPhone 6. After shutting off iCloud and resetting network settings I was able to successfully pair the phone to Uconnect

Powerbook G4 can't connect via ethernet but connects via airport

We have a small office network connected to an Efficient Networks DSL router that's managed by our isp. The router has 4 ports and a linksys 8 port switch is connected to one of those ports. Another D-Link wireless router/switch is connected to another port.
2 i-macs connect without problem via ethernet cable. They are set to DHCP and get 192.xx private addresses. Both run 10.4.5. Another older imac running 9.2.2. also has no problems.
I recently purchased a powerbook G4 and it will not connect via ethernet to the Efficient networks router. At first it was connected to the linksys, so decided to connect it direct to the Efficient Networks router. With DHCP, it acquires a 169. internet address which is self generated (i.e. no real connection). I tried to give it a static private address (talking to the isp provider). They could see the powerbook but saw all zero's (presumable mac address). By the way the Powerbook works perfectly at home connected via ethernet cable to a D-Link router connected to a cable modem so it's not a physical problem. I even checked the ethernet cable I used in the office with another computer - no problem.
When I switch to airport in the office, the powerbook connects to the network and the internet. I get some strange warning messages showing the server's and the router's private ip addresses. I click ok, and the powerbook finds an unassigned private ip address. It's the only way it will work, but it causes problems, because I can't connect to one of the network printers. Speed also isn't great.
Can anyone give me advise how to proceed. I am no expert on this stuff so keep it as simple as possible.
Tks

Tim,
Thanks for your help. Here's what I've done before reading your e-mail. The D-Link DI-524 wireless router is connected to the Effiicent Neworks DSL router as you mentioned. One ethernet port of the EFF.Net. router is connected to the WAN port of the DI-514.
Because I have a D-Link router at home which works flawlessly with my powerbook, I decided to connect the ethernet cable of the powerbook to the D-Link which has 4 ethernet ports. Lo and behold, the powerbook acquired a private ip address and connected to the LAN and internet!
When I connected the powerbook direct to the Efficient Networks router, it could not communicate. I believe that there must be some software incompatibility between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router. By connecting to the D-Link, the D-Link assigned an ip address to the powerbook, and it could connect to the server, lan, etc..
Only problem is that I have a Brother network printer that cannot connect to the powerbook. My powerbook cannot find it on the network. Because there is a linksys switch connected to the efficient networks router's third ethernet port, maybe as you said, going through the D-Link via DHCP (when the Linksys is also acting as a DHCP server, might cause this type of problem. What do you think?
As a final note, other imac G5's connected to the linksys switch (which then connects to the Efficient Network's router) have no problem connecting to the lan or internet and have no problem connecting to any of the printers. When I put the powerbook on that switch, I could not connect to the internet - i.e. whether connecting via the lynksys switch or direct with the efficient networks router - same results: no internet connection whether manually or via DHCP.
So the imac G5 has no problem with the efficient networks router but the powerbook G4 hits a brick wall. The G4 likes the D-Link router. I am concerned (and I will have to check this) that if I turn off the dhcp server feature from the D-Link, that whatever software issue crops up between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router, will rise up again, because the D-Link will act like a simple switch (just like my linksys switch), and we'll be back to square zero. In any case, no harm in trying. This may be the cause of the Powerbook not seeing that Brother printer (even though it sees another printer and other macs).
Having spent hours reading about network problems, I think it's safe to say that macs have problems with certain routers. Why a G5 works and a powerbook G4 doesn't is beyond me, but clearly software must play a role.

Macbook can't connect via L2TP but can via PPTP. iPhone can connect to both

So I've been banging my head up against the wall for the better part of this morning trying to figure this out. Just as a note, I'm 3000 miles from my house and server, but I do have access to it for the time being via PPTP.
Before I left, I verified that I could connect with L2TP on my iphone's 3G network. I was also able to connect at the airport on my Macbook using L2TP. Sometime overnight something changed, and I can't figure out what. I noticed that my phone dropped it's VPN connection saying something like "the connection to the server dropped unexpectedly" or such. After that, I was unable to connect over L2TP on my macbook or iphone. On a whim I tried connecting over PPTP which worked! But only on my macbook. Again on a whim I tried to connect via L2TP on my iphone, and it worked?! I rinsed, lathered and repeated that process over and over again and confirmed that I could only connect over L2TP on my iPhone after connecting on my macbook over PPTP. Also, on my iphone, if I stored the password it wouldn't authenticate (probably not related).
As of this moment I am connected using L2TP on my iphone for the last hour, using it to successfully stream Pandora across US borders, but can't sustain a PPTP connection on my macbook for longer than 10 mins. And I still can't connect over L2TP. So that said here are the client and server logs (ips, domains and usernames masked....) Server and clients are in different timezones:

I'm having similar issues but not much luck getting any answers. I made a similar post here - maybe something in there will help you.
One thing I have been able to pinpoint is that the MobileMe Back To My Mac service was causing quite a few issues with being able to connect to the VPN. Once I turn off the service, connection seems to work fine. Although, once I'm connected, I cannot access file sharing. Still waiting for some answers on that.

I can't use the scroll feature built into my touchpad on my laptop, it works with everything else, including a pdf within firefox and the old 3.6 version of firefox but not in the new one. Does anyone know how to fix this?

The touchpad has a built in feature where when i move my finger over the far right, it scrolls instead of using the mouse. It has been faultless with everything before now, but doesnt work on webpages in Firefox 4, but does in pdfs open within firefox. I can only assume therefore it is the browsers problem not mine. The touchpad is a synaptics pointing device. If this is a browser problem then looks like firefox 4 wont be for me :(

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

Can't connect to iTunes but works fine on app store

Is there any problem currently going on iTunes store? Because I tried to connect to iTunes store on my desktop (windows) and it kept loading, same goes to my iPad and iPhone both devices couldn't connect to iTunes but the app store works just fine.
Thx for the answer

In the course of your troubleshooting to date, have you worked through the following document?

TS5209 Airplay won't connect through my Mac Book Pro but works on everything else.

My MacBook Pro (1 year old) cannot connect through Airplay to my Apple TV. I receive an error message that simply says, "Could not connect to Apple Tv."
The Apple TV and computer are completely up to date. The Apple TV works with all other devices and my Itunes Library shows up in Home Sharing.
I cannot figure this out and I am pretty annoyed with the issue.
Any help?

You reformatted the HD, which was originally formatted for Windows (NTFS format is the typical HD format for Windows).
So you did erase completely its content, and now it is formatted in HFS format (HFS is the typical HD format for Windows).
If you want to employ Time Machine, you need a drive formatted as HFS (Mac), and you cannot use it for any other task.
If you want to share the drive content between Macs and Windows computers, the drive must be formatted for Windows (NTFS format), and then you can read & write over it from a Mac if you installa the Tuxera software on your Mac.
Or you can format it for Mac (HFS format), and then read and write to it by installing the MacDrive software on your Windows computer.
Theoretically, a new disk format exists, which is compatible natively both with Windows and Mac. It is called exFAT (also known as FAT64), and is typically employed for external USB storage units. My experence with eXFAT, however, is unsatisfactory: the Mac tends to corrupt the volume, which needs to be "fixed" using a Windows machine.
Currently all my external USB drives are fromatted as NTFS, and hence I had to installa Tuxera on all the Macs owned by me, my wife and my son. This is very reliable, but it does not allow to use Time Macine.
We employ other backup solutions, with more manual control over what is backed up and what is not... And these do not require that the external disk is formatted as HFS (Mac).

I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not on my iPhone (3G). iCloud is working with everything else, photos, calendar, etc. Anyone know why?

I have digital handbooks in iBooks on my iPad yet they are not showing in iBooks on my 3G iPhone. I have the iCloud completely set up - everything else syncs. Anyone have any idea why they're not showing on both devices?

You still have to sync them or download them to your phone. iBooks will sync your bookmarks, and your collections (which are they are organized when you tap "Collections" on your iPad) using iCloud, but it will not transfer copies of the actual books or pdfs to your other devices.

Can't connect via cable, but wireless works.

iMac, Leopard, iTunes, all current. AppleTV only shows up when I disconnect my ethernet cable. At that point my Airport base station (older version) makes the connection. If I turn Airport off in the OS, still no go. I've tried multiple cables too. I've also tried my Macbook pro.
I obviously want the wired connection for greater speed and since the ATV is in the room right next to the computer it's no big deal to run a cable. I swear I had this all running correctly under Tiger, but now I'm starting to wonder if it had been wireless all along and I never realized it.
Help!

Hi,
I had the same problem and this worked for me -
Go to System Preferences/Sharing and enable "Internet Sharing" where it says "Share your connection from" choose Airport and where it says "To computers using" select the ethernet port that you've connected the cable from the ATV to on your computer.
Go to System Preferences/Security/Firewall and if you've selected the last option "Set access for specific services and applications" add iTunes to the list by clicking the + and navigating to it.
Regards

3G network problems in DC: cannot connect to internet, but works with EDGE

I can load web pages fine when I turn off 3G in the settings tab (and use only EDGE), but when I turn on 3G I need to "reload" the page several times before it will load.
This is really annoying because it is clearly a AT&T 3G network problem. After spending about an hour on the phone troubleshooting the problem with Apple-iphone and ATT "customer support", they concluded that although I was having a problem, because ATT does not show a current issue in the Washington, DC area, there is nothing they can do.
Argh! ATT and Apple need to work things out to fix the network problems, I hate being caught in the middle of their animus relationship.
I guess I will have to continue paying for a service that is spotty, because as the ATT representative pointed out, they do not guarantee any service and will not recompense for any alleged outage.
Wow, now that is a prime example of why having no effective competition in cellular providers means the customer loses.

I appears to me that the problem is not related to whether you are on the phone or not. Generally, it seems like there is a problem with the 3G network being EXTREMELY slow and non-responsive. When I press the reload button several times, sometimes is loads very quickly as I would expect on 3G.
Still having this problem today.

Links will not work in websites accessed via FireFox, but work with Chrome and IE.

This happens randomly. If I open a webpage for something like a news site and they offer a slideshow of information, the carat/ arrow (like this >) wont take me to the next slide. Here is an example of the type page: http://news.discovery.com/human/life/the-sorriest-people-of-2014-141230.htm?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=dnewsnewsletter
I have looked through settings and reloaded firefox several times. I have tried updating all my apps, though that page has its own issues I dont have time for here. Nothing seems to work.
Usually, the page just sits there, static. The next page arrow is active, it highlights when I mouse over it, but it wont activate when selected.
This has been a problem for quite a while, at least over the last two upgrades.
