Can't get rid of automatic request for server connect.

When loggin in the computer tries to connect to an other computer in the house (the last time the computer was connected to this server (other comp.), it could not disconnect, and since then it tries to connect again by login). How do I get rid of this. As far as I can see, there is no loginscripts, automatorscripts, launchitems or anything that can be the course of this request.
Any surgestions??
Regards Bo-T

I have this same problem.
In my case, I was unable to set up my home network because my computer would not show the connected server in the Finder window. In order to Screen Share, I have to use the "Connect to Server" command in the "Go" menu.
In searching for a solution to my problem, I found an elegant workaround that enabled me to automatically connect to my server on login. Normally, this can be accomplished from System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items, but I couldn't find my server there (it wasn't appearing there, either). You might look in this area to see if there's a server being automatically connected there.
Since then, however, I've had to change the IP address for my main (G5) server, which also changed its name in the "Connect" box. This is a long way of saying I now have the same problem, where my computer tries to connect to my old server IP address, and I get the same error as you do.
I've been trying to find the post with the workaround to remember how I was able to do this, but have been unsuccessful.
I'm hoping someone will be able to provide the workaround; it might solve both of our problems.

  • Can I get rid of the twitter for iPhone thing at the top for good

    I am using twitter mobile and don't want to install the app. I am wondering instead of hitting the x by the app, can I get rid of that forever or do I have to just hit the x every time? Maybe there's a way and I don't see it. My ipod is a touch 5th Generation. Hope that helps. Thanks for your kind help.

    Just delete the app form the iPod and if you sync with iTunes make sure that you do not resync it to the iPod. You can delete it from your iTunes library too..

  • How can I get gmail to automatically check for messages every 5 minutes on my 4S?

    I am new to my Iphone 4s.  I use gmail for my mail application.  One special from address is urgent when I get a message. I have flagged this address as a VIP and assigned loud tones and notifications in the notifications function but a message was sent to me but nothing "arrived and nothing happened" until I opened mail again.  I need this message and the notification to be intrusive!

    There is no option to Fetch email every 5 minutes.
    The options are:
    Every 15 Minutes
    Every 30 Minutes
    Hourly
    Manually
    These settings are in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data
    The only other option is to set the email account up as Exchange so that as new emails arrive they are pushed to the device.

There's nothing downloaded in programs, checked windows update. PC is running great, no virus Toshiba Laptop windows8.1 64bit!! Can somebody PLEASE HELP ME...I would really appreciate it...........

    Hi, you seem to have done almost everything! [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-caused-malware This article] will probably tell you what you already know, but try any of the malware removal links near the bottom of the page that you haven't done already - in particular AdwCleaner.
    It might help to know if other browsers you may have are affected, because if they are, it will prove that it's not a FF specific problem.
    It's likely that this malware was bundled with something you downloaded - uninstalling that might remove it, although you will probably have to remove the malware separately.
    Have you thoroughly searched your hard drive? I suggest you enable Show Hidden Files and Folders - [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/show-hidden-files-in-windows-8/ instructions here,] then go to your hard drive, and in particular, open Users > Personal Folder (your name) > App Data > Roaming, and have a look in there - you can right click to delete, but only if you're certain it's the right file!

  • In Mail, one mailbox for Recovered Message (AOL) keeps showing 1 very large message that I cannot delete. How can I get rid of this recurring problem, please?

    In Mail on iMac, successfully running OS X Lion, one mailbox on My Mac for "Recovered Messages (from AOL)" keeps showing 1 very large message (more than 20 Mb) that I just cannot seem to delete. Each time I go into my In Box, the "loading" symbol spins and the message appears in the "Recovered Messages" mailbox. How can I get rid of this recurrent file, please?
    At the same time, I'm not receviving any new mails in my In Box, although, if I look at the same account on my MacBook Pro, I can indeed see the incoming mails (but on that machine I do not have the "recovery" problem).
    The help of a clear-thinking Apple fan would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks.

    I worked it out.
    Unhide your hidden files ( I used a widget from http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/developer/hiddenfiles.html)
    Go to your HD.
    Go to Users.
    Go to your House (home)
    there should be a hidden Library folder there (it will be transparent)
    Go to Mail in this folder
    The next folder ( for me ) is V2
    Click on that and the next one will be a whole list of your mail servers, and one folder called Mailboxes
    Click on that and there should be a folder called recovered messages (server) . mbox
    Click on that there a random numbered/lettered folder -> data
    In that data folder is a list of random numbered folders (i.e a folder called 2, one called 9 etc) and in EACH of these, another numbered folder, and then a folder called messages.
    In the messages folder delete all of the ebmx (I think that's what they were from memory, sorry I forgot as I already deleted my trash after my golden moment).
    This was GOLDEN for me. Reason being, when I went to delete my "recovered file" in mail, it would give me an error message " cannot delete 2500 files". I knew it was only 1 file so this was weird. Why 2500 files? Because if you click on the ebmx files like I did, hey presto, it turned out that they were ALL THE SAME MESSAGE = 2500 times. In each of those folders in the random numbers, in their related message folder.
    Now remember - DONT delete the folder, make sure you have gone to the message folder, found all those pesky ebmx files and deleted THOSE, not the folder.
    It worked for me. No restarting or anything. And recovered file. GONE.
    Started receiving and syncing mail again. Woohoo.
    Best wishes.

    I clicked on iMessage on my Macbook Pro today for the first time, and now NOTES keeps opening up every 5 seconds, with a new note.  I cannot stop it from opening. If I close it or force close, it opens again in 5 seconds.  I can't get rid of it.  I have tried to clear out the iMessage settings I had put in, and I've tried to adjust the Accounts to not include notes to synch.  But, Notes will not stop.  It opens a new note, and even if you ignore it, it assumes preference every 5 seconds, and the Mac is impossible to use.

    Do you have any Boot Camp or other secondary partitions set up on your system? If so then try running a disk verification routine (chkdsk, etc.) in Windows to repair the disk. While I've not heard of it happening recently, in the past errors in these partitions have resulted in stubborn ghost files appearing in OS X.

    Hi,
    According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

    I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my  contacts  instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account.  How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app.  I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity).  I wish I could start over!!!  thanks.
    iPad

    I could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts.  I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there.  When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies.  You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
    I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though.  Good luck!

  • I have one random Apple ID that appears only when I go to itunes or App Store.  For everything else I have my Apple ID and password all set.  Can I get rid of this thing?

    This is a Question:  I have one random Apple ID that comes up only when I'm trying to access Apps or iTunes.  I have another Apple ID with a password that works just fine for everything else.  I do not have a password for this random id.  How can I get rid of it?  I can't perform updates is the big issue.

    Jonathan:This seems to make a lot of sense.  My only follow up question is:  will I have any trouble getting iTunes and
    Apps back?
    Will apple charge me?  I really can't remember clearly, but it seems to me that iTunes and Apps were present on the
    iPad2 that was given to me as a gift, but I could be mistaken.
    If I am all clear for getting those two stores back with an easy selection, then I will use your solution.
    Have a great season, my friend- this was driving me nuts!  Thank you so much!

  • HT204053 I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it???

    I created a new apple id because the previous one no longer exists as an email (domain had to be cancelled). I keep seeing the old one pop up in my iPhone for which I don't remember the password. How can I get rid of it??? Or how can I reset the password if the email doesn't exist??? I also tried answering a question (my date of birth) but it says it's wrong.
    I'm really frustrated with the apple id!!!
    Frustrated!!!

    In one of the help pages for managing your Apple ID (http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40), it shows two separate sections, one for Apple ID and one for Primary Email address. When I go to manage my Apple ID, I see only a single section for both. Can the two be 'separated', especially when you face the situation of having to discontinue your email address for some reason?
    I also noticed that when navigating to Apple ID Support Communities, it shows my nickname 'dishdy'. How and when did I insert this? In the current sequence for creating an Apple ID I don't see this. In my current profile I don't see this.
    In any case, I have freed myself from my previous Apple ID (@artemis.it) on my iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

    i have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it,, i have iphone 5

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you

    I try to get as many items as I can in the bookmarks menu toolbar (typically using 3 letter names). F4 adds an icon next to each name - taking up valuable space. How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you.

    If you remove the names then you may have a problem with organizing or searching for bookmarks.<br />
    If you do not want to use the extension then you can achieve the same effect with code in userChrome.css<br />
    That is what I would do.
    Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.
