Can't see fileserver or printer

I have a closed network configuration like this:
R----Airport----Laptop
O
U----G5 Fileserver
T
E----Other computer
R----Laser printer
...but I can't see the fileserver or laser printer from my laptop. Is there an easy fix to this or am I in over my head?

Thanks, Garrett, but mreckhof fixed my problem which I also posted on the Leopard "Getting Online and Networking" forum.
As it turns out, the spaces in the mdns name was the problem. I renamed it without spaces and it worked.

It's a weird bug for sure. It didn't affect any of the Tiger users, only us Leopard users. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next release.

  • I am trying to delete pages I have crated in numbers, but can only see them in print preview. Without print preview I do not see them. How can I delete these pages, but keep others before and after?

    Hi Crushed,
    Numbers doesn't have pages. It has a canvas that holds objects such as tables and charts.
    Drag the objects from the bottom of the canvas onto the white space above. That will reduce the number of "pages" (sheets of paper) that will print.

  • My ipad can not see my wifi printer

    my ipad can not see my wifi printer ????????

    Is it an AirPrint enabled printer ? The supported models are listed on this page, and there is also a bit of troubleshooting at the bottom : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356
    If it's not an AirPrint model, then some manufacturers have their own apps in the iTunes app store, and there are also third-party apps such as Print Central For iPad and Print n Share which might work with it.

  • I can't see adobe pdf printer

    Hi,
    I've recently installed the CC on my iMac at work, including Adobe Acrobat Pro. When I go to (i.e.) Illustrator > file > print I can't see in the drop down menu the 'Adobe pdf' option to virtually print my files. Every software is updated to its latest version, including my operating system (OS X 10.9.5). I tried to look up in several websites and forums to see if I have to do something specific to get access to the adobe virtual printer (I never had to do anything like that because it's always been automatic after installing Adobe Acrobat Pro) but I couldn't find any help. Does anybody have some advice? Thank you in advance.

    That's too bad. I have an old illustrator file with 18 layers, one for each page of a calendar. That option was good to create an original  layered file directly in illustrator and then saving individual pages with the  'save visible and printable layers' option selected. Now if I choose 'save as pdf' there is no way to turn off unwanted layers and the resulting pdf is a fuzzy mix of all 18 layers

  • Can't see windows shared printer

    Hi,
    Just joined a small company that is all windows based. So if I want to keep using my Mac, I need to resolve a couple important issues. One of them is printing to the office printers. The office is set up to use a PC running windows 2000 connected to the printers in question. The printers are all shared by this PC and everyone accesses them through.
    The problem I am having is that when I go through the printer utility and select more printers, I can find and connect to the designated PC for printing. However, after connecting to it, there are no printers visible to select for setting up.
    The printers that are highest on my list are an HP1300 and HP5000. I believe the HP1300 is connected via USB.
    I saw the post mentioning potential problems with the drivers and to get hpijs.
    But is that the reason I can't even see the shared printers?

    No. While you will need the hpijs, Foomatic RIP and Ghostscript software to print to the USB shared printer, they are not needed to see the shared printer.
    When you opened (double-clicked) the Windows 2000 print server, were you prompted to authenticate? If you didn't authenticate, then this could explain why the shared printers are not being displayed, as you are probably connecting as a guest and this account has no access to the printers. You will need to ask for an account to use, or have one created for you so that you can see the printers.
    The other thing you may need to check is if the 2000 PC is part of a domain rather than a workgroup. If it is a domain, then the account name that you use to authenticate to it has to include the domain name, such as domain\accountname.

  • How can I see how many prints I have printed?

    Hello all,
    My office currently uses an HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. We are reevaluating our printing needs, and I would like to be able to see how many prints we currently print/have printed on the printer if at all possible in order to see what our needs may be.
    On my old office Ricoh printer, it told us how many colour and how many b&w prints we did per month. If there is a similar function to this for HP please let me know.

  • Can't see the bonjour printer in the printer list but if I turn wi-fi off, I see the printer in the list briefly before it goes away.

    I am trying to add a printer; after clicking "add printer," the list is blank.  But if I turn off wi-fi, I see the bonjour printer for a moment (along with other printers on the network) and then (of course) the list is blank.  When I turn on wi-fi, same thing - there and gone!  And the list is blank.  Printer works fine with USB connection.  I am running 10.8.2

    The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
    Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

  • Can't see shared usb printer

    Hi All
    Thanks in advance, have searched the forums and can't seem to find an answer.
    I work in a small office using the following 3 Mac's all on a wired network
    1. PowerPC G5 - OS 10.4.11
    2. Intel G5 - OS 10.4.11
    3. G4 - OS 10.4.11
    We have an Epson R340 connected via usb into mac number 1, it's all shared and mac number 3, the G4, see's it and can print to it no problem. However the Intel G5 just will not see it in the 'add printers' area.
    If I plug the printer into the G4, mac 1 can see and use it but still not the Intel G5.
    If I plug the printer into the Intel G5, neither of the other 2 mac's see it.
    I can network the Epson printer and all 3 mac's can see and use it, but the colour is very poor, all colours look very 'washed out' and the quality is unacceptable.
    Hope you can help as we have had this problem for months now and I'm pulling my hair out on this one and I havn't got that much left to pull out anyway

  • Can't see Canon MX410 printer in network places

    Hi,
    I have a Canon MX410 series printer that is cabled to a desktop PC running Windows 7 and is shared by three laptops, two or which are also running Windows 7 and one of which is running Windows 8.1.
    At some point, the printer and its attended functions (fax, etc) stopped showing up in Network Places. I also run Collobos Presto on the desktop, but my Ipads can no longer see the printer.
    I deleted the printer and all Canon software from all machings and then tried reinstalling the printer on all each using the MX410 CD. I chose a full install for the desktop and a custom install - installing only the drivers - for each of the laptops, but to no evail.
    This used to work in the past and I'm uncertain what changed.
    Thanks,

  • Can't see anything in Print and New File window and others..

    Hello,
    I just bought a new computer with Windows 7. I downloaded the Illustrator CS5 trial to check it out before I purchase it. It installed fine and I can open files but when I open the print menu, the print window opens in a long vertical rectangle, completely empty. If I press enter though, the file will print. When I go to new,  I have the same problem as well as with other menu options like document setup.
    Is there any way to fix this? I tried running it under XP compatibility but that didn't make a difference.
    THANK YOU!

    If you installed iWork from the disk, did you run the updates?
    If you copied the app over from the old Mac you would also need a copy of the iWork '08 folder which is in Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support

  • Can't see shared windows printer all the time

    The printer was set up when I was able to see the windows workgroup with  finder,  and then I went to setting to set up the printer (need to choose windows printer).  It was working when I tested it.   Later when I want to print, it says connection refused.   Then I found  the windows workgroup no longer appeared under finder.  The Windows PC was on and the printer was on and yet I got connection refused.   What gives?
