Cannot connect to other computers on network
We have a small office network with 7 macs on it. 5 wired 2 laptops with Airport Extreme.
We have an 8 port switch where the 5 desktops and the airport connect. When I am on a laptop I cannot connect to any of the desktops. It does not even see them (and same with desktop to laptop) What do I need to do to share these two on the airportConfigure the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) so that it the option to distribute IP addresses is DISABLED. That will place the wireless and wired computers on the same subnet.

Cannot connect to other computers on network. HELP!
Using a G-5 dual 2.0 with 10.4.10 and I am having issues with networking and connecting to other computers on my network. This is an intermittent problem. When I try to connect <go> <connect to server><browse> the computers on the network do not show up(in the network window) all the time. Sometimes they will if I restart and sometimes not. Why is this happening? I have 4 other machines and they are all fine. I can connect to if but not from it.
TIA

Better for you to post your question here instead.

Cannot connect to other computers over wireless on my AEBS N base-station

Cannot connect to other computers on network. Can connect to Airport disk, but not my desktop (iMac G5) or vice-versa (Macbook). Can see it on finder sidebar, but clicking on it just "connects" for hours, with no success. Finder-->connect to server does not work with IP or name.local. Tried rebooting, deleting kerberos, deleting .mac certificates, unplugging, prayer and animal sacrifice. No luck. Anyone have any suggestions? Firewalls are both turned off, BTMM turned off, airport on, both connected etc. Console logs are spitting out LOTS, I can post if necessary.Hi Varick-

ipconfig /renew
restart computer
ipconfig /flushdns
totally shut down computer then restart.
netsh winsock reset all

Now test your iTunes again. If that does not work, uninstall your Antivirus program and test again -
Unable to Connect to Other Computers on Network
We have a small network of 4 Macs and suddenly one of our computers cannot connect to other computers on the network. We have file sharing turned on all the Macs, and the other computers can connect to this G4 733 DA, but the G4 DA can "see" the other computers, but when I try to connect I get the message that the connection failed.
Is there any solution other than reloading Tiger? In system 9 it was simple to just reload the networking extension if it was damaged, but I am not sure for what to search to fix this problem.
G4/1GHz, 7600 w/G3/500 MHz , G4/733 MHz Server Mac OS X (10.4.4)Since all the computers are "seeing" each other, I would try to do a "Repair Permissions" from the Disk Utility on the G4 DA...and, if that doesn't help, try the "Repair Disk" option before reloading Tiger. Sometimes, when OS X can't access system files properly, you see "strange" errors like these.

Trouble connecting to other nodes on network
Within the last month or so, I've noticed that I cannot connect to other nodes which are on my network from my MacBook. More specifically, I have a Buffalo Linkstation Network Attached Storage drive (wired), a Windows XP PC (wired), and my wife's MacBook (wireless), all connected via a Netgear WNR854T router. Whenever I browse to the "Network" in Finder, all of the machines display icons, however when I double-click on one, I get the following message: "The alias 'xyz' could not be opened, because the original item cannot be found." I get options to "Delete Alias" or "Fix Alias". When I attempt to delete the alias I get the error message that I do not have the appropriate privileges for the corresponding machine.
I don't get this problem, however, when I try to connect to my wife's MacBook or when I'm connecting to my MacBook from another machine. When using the PC (or the virtual machine in Parallels), I see my MacBook and can connect and browse files to my heart's content. In addition, my wife has not experienced any of these problems when connecting. She can see the network attached drive, the PC, etc. and can connect without issue.
One interesting thing I did notice is that if I use the "Go -> Connect to Server" and type the IP address of, say, the NAS, it will allow me to mount the volumes (folders I have on the NAS). Although interestingly enough, the folder I really want isn't displayed as an option to mount even though, once again, I can get to it from any other machine except this MacBook.
I haven't (knowingly) changed any configuration setting and the only hardware change I've made to my network is replacing an old Netgear router with this new one last week. But as I've mentioned, I had been experiencing this problem even with the older router. Does anyone have any suggestions which will help me get back to browsing my network like I used to?
MacBook Core Duo Black 2 GHz; 2GB RAM; 100GB HD Mac OS X (10.4.8)Firstly, a note of caution... You need to take care when editing NetInfo, because if you make a mistake, you could render your account (or someone elses) unusable.
When you connect to a network with a Mac OS X server present, you can receive network settings via DHCP. Deleting mcx_cache wil reset all of these settings, which will hopefully restore your Mac to the way it was before. To do this, go into NetInfo Manager, which you'll find here:
Applications/Utilities/NetInfo Manager
Click on the padlock icon (bottom left) and autheticate as an administrator. Click on the "/" menu, which should be in the far-left column. In the sub-menu to the right, there should be an item called mcx_cache. Click on this, and then click on the Delete button, and confirm you want to delete.
Now quit out of NetInfo Manager and restart your Mac. When you check your Network icon in the Finder, it's contents should be back to normal.

My iPad2 no longer connects to my home wifi network but there is no problem connecting to other saved wifi networks. Currently using iOS8.0.2. with storage capacity of 12.2Gb but only 147Mb free. Disconnecting the router and rebooting the iPad worked briefly as a temporary fix but not anymore
You could try this
Temporarily disable security on your home network
See if the iPad connects
If it does then reset the security - with the same or different password -
Connect as... no longer works. Cannot connect to other computers on my home network.
I have a home network and it's been unchanged for years. Never had any issue with connecting to other computers, all of which are Macs running OS X. Now, if I click Connect As, nothing happens. Double-clicking the other computer in the Finder's sidebar or using Go To Server, etc. yields nothing. Even odder; the other machines no longer see me at all. No one has any Firewall on. File sharing is on for all machines. We're all on the same subnet and the same network, yet every other machine can connect to one another but not mine. Thoughts? Restarting has not helped. Thanks.
If you are getting the error message that the server won't allow any more users to connect, and to try again later, this seems to be a problem with AFP sharing in Lion.
The workaround for this so far is to go to System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing and click on Options... On that window, turn OFF "Share files and folders using AFP" and turn ON "Share files and folders using SMB (Windows)" Click Done to go back to the sharing window and you should see a green dot followed by "Windows Sharing: On"
Give that a try. -
Cannot connect to other computers on my wireless network
Since I upgraded to Mac OS X v10.7 Lion I cannot connect to my iMac or MacBook as a Registered User. I keep getting "Connection Failed" when I try to connect.

New iPod Touch 4th gen. cannot connect to home wi-fi network
When I launch wi-fi on my new iPod Touch 4th gen. my home network's name is displayed, but after entering my password the iPod is unable to connect - the wheel to the left of the network name just keeps spinning. The network still functions properly for all my other devices (MacBook, 2nd gen. iPod Touch, wireless printer and my wife's PC) and the new iPod Touch did connect to the network in the Apple Store when I visited yesterday. I know the password I enetered for my home network is correct because I've checked it in my keychain, and also the iPod did not inform me that it was the wrong password for that network - as it does if I enter another password.
I have followed the advice given to others - unplugging the Time Capsule and leaving it for 5 minutes, checking that all my software and firmware is up to date, 'forgetting' the network on my new iPod then searching for it again, and have completely restored the iPod - but it still cannot connect to my network. If my network is functioning properly, and my new iPod was capable of joining the Apple Store's network yesterday, and I am sure that I am entering the correct password, it seems to me that my problem must be due to some network setting that is refusing to allow a new device to connect. I can't find where that setting might be - can anyone advise?depending on what router but hopefully all routers came to this default address....
192.168.1.1/Wireless_MAC.asp
from
>Setup of the Basic Setup you goto
>Wireless
>WirelessMacFilter
also had an idea when i wanna make sure im typing the right one, i would do is tap each letter/# by 1, as in,
(e.q.)
here's my ipod 4 and my ipod 2, the pswd is 123456
ipod 4, i press 1
ipod 2, i press 1
ipod 4, i press 2
ipod 2, i press 2
and so on till i reach both of them to 6 (1by1) to make sure i get it in there right. saw this on another wall it might depends on what channel your using, but i dont rly think that matters bc i have mine on auto and nvr had a problem.
i would do this even thou it may sound crazy to others....if i were you this is what i would do
on your ipod 2Gen
>Safari
>address to 192.168.1.1/WL_WPATable.asp
-(wireless security settings for passcode)
>tap the box for the password, whatever ur security is i would copy
-IF WEP
-copy phrase key and Key 1
-IF WPA
-copy phrase key
>open Notepad
>under iCloud account Notepad
>Paste the Key
>either on your pc/mac or your 2nd Gen, go back to
>192.168.1.1/WL_WPATable.asp
>change your Security Mode to Disable
>goto your 4 Gen iPod Touch
>goto settings and connect to it, if pswd is still in it then tap forget this network and reconnect to it
-once connected and got IP adresses
>goto Notpad under iCloud
-you should have obtained your recent icloud msgs included the key you pasted
-once obtained
>gobk to pc/mac or ipod 2nd gen and re enabled the security and re-paste the key in
-once router adjusted try to connect to it
>1st do your 2nd gen and forget this network reconnect to it and repaste the key
>2nd goto ur 4rth gen from your notes, highlight the key in ur notpad and tap copy and forget this network reconnect to it and paste the key.
this should work bc i did it myself when i couldnt get connected bc thats almost the same steps i did.
somtimes i put my name up on here. remeber these names we put as our nickname doesnt mean its our real name or anything like that,

Cannot connect to other users than administrator
Hi,
I am very new to windows server, in fact, I installed it on my PC yesterday.
I have set up remote control for my computer which works fine on the default "Administrator" account. However, when trying to connect another user (e.g. "TestUser"), I cannot connect to the computer.
I have tried to make the user administrator, adding the username to users whom can be controlled, but still only works on the "Administrator" account.
The error message I get: "Unable to connect to remote PC. Please verify that remote control is enabled, the remote PC is turned on and available on the network, and try again".
Therefore I tried manually logging in to the user, enabling remote control, connecting again, but still didn't work.
Any suggestions?Hi,
Please go through below self support link,
Why can’t I connect using Remote Desktop Connection?
modify the settings according to the document.

Cannot connect to computers on WRT160N network
installed a wrt160n, Have 2 W7 laptops connected wirelessly, & 1 XP desktop connected wired. Cannot get third XP laptop to see the computers on the betwork or make a connection. XP laptop has full internet copnnection. tried everything.
Sorry for the delay in responding; I have been travelling on business:
!. File & Printer sharing are enabled onall computers
2. All computers are on the same workgroup (XP & W7 machine alike)
3. Firewall software set to "Trust" the router. Tried the http:// address first but setting would not accept since requires an https:// setting. Removed the checkmark and then attempted with no luck.
4. COuld not determine how to set firewall to "Trust" other computers on the network.
Clarification: The laptop that cannot connect is trying to connect wirelessly. I can connect to the internet, check email, but I cannot see the other network computers. I wiull try to connect to the network via a wired LAN connection.
Any thoughts?? My "old" Sony VAIO, the one with the problems, has a "g" wireless card. I woudl think this woudl not be a problem for the newer router - WRT160N; there should be adequate backward compatibility. -
Cannot connect to password protected WiFi network
I received an iPhone for Christmas; at that time our home network was not encrypted and I had no trouble connecting to it. Since we protected it about a week ago, I have not been able to log into it on my iPhone (or iPod touch, for what it's worth). It picks up the network, and I know I am entering the correct password, but it will always say that it cannot connect. My sister has an older model iPhone and she has no troubles logging in to the network.
Any thoughts?A couple of things come to mind:
- Password is case-sensitive. Have you checked uppercase and lowercase characters?
- Have you got mac-address protection (only allow certain mac-addresses to access the network). If so, enter the iPhones mac-address as an allowed one. How many devices do you allow on your wireless network? Maybe you've set the number of DHCP leases to a number which prevents your iphone from getting a mac-address?
Also, check the router-logs, try to determine exactly why you don't get access.
What is the OS-version of your iPhone?
Maybe you are looking for
