Cifs - need to connect to share server (can see folders but can't see files)
This is driving me nuts...
CASE ONE:
before the upgrade, i could view folders and files on the shareserver (at a company). but after the upgrade, things went downhill...
we can no longer use "smb://ServerName" so we are forced to use "cifs://ServerName". Fine, fine. but i can only see folders...not files.
ive looked everywhere on the internets for a solution but find nerdy, tech lingo. I found only one that had the solution, but they simply said "nevermind, i found the solution...".. jesh,,, at least leave a solution for us....
does someone have a work-around or a solution to this bug?
CASE TWO:
Dealing with Outlook 2011 and sharing caledars using the Exchange, i can see my co-workers email and statuses...but i can no longer see their schedules/availability.
does anyone have a solution to this???
Rule #1: do not say "its an Outlook issue" cause they already told me to ask you.
Rule #2: do not say "you are posting in the wrong place". just help, for Pete's sake...
Rule#3: do not say "$**%()*$ and preliminary connection hub 5583HHFer, BS...." we dont need nerdy lingo...we need help...
others including myself would very much appreciate your help in the above 2 matters.
Kindly,

If you have Internet connectivity then try reinstalling the app.
If you're on wifi, ensure that site isn't blocked. -
""Connection to the server failed" on Iphone - but which one?
When I open the default Mail App on my iPhone 4S I get the error "Cannot Get Mail - the connection to the server failed". OK, but which one? I have six email accounts (all of which have worked at one time) so which server is not connecting? It'd be nice if IOS told me! Any solution, please?
I may have solved the problem myself, only to find another one.
If I tap each of the accounts in turn, I find that it's the 'Exchange' one that's failing. trouble is, I can't recall what this does, or why I set itup, as i don't use MS Exchange. I suspect it's connected with syncing to either Outlook.com or Gmail, but I'm not sure.
BTW, I still think the error message should say which account is generating the error - Apple stuff is supposed to be easy and intuitive, and this isn't! -
IPad2- cannot open page, Safari cannot open the page because it could not connect to the server? Internet works but this message continues to pop up. My iPhone works fine and iPad has been working great until a few days ago.

I need to connect my bluetooth keyboard on my mac, but it doesn't have bluetooth installed
I need to connect my bluetooth keyboard on my mac, but it doesn't have bluetooth installed. eMac 2004 running 10.4.7 Tiger.
In the case you have explained you will have to do some shopping around. I am sure there is something out there that is available and will work with a Mac. The key here though is it must have the software available with the Keyboard or Mouse to insure that it will work on your older model Mac. Normally all you need to do is follow there instructions to a tee to make them work. I have 2 different items that work trouble free on 2 different Mac's. One other thing to keep in mind is you may have some trouble tracking down what you are looking for.
Here may very well be a place to start.

Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at google.com.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Need Help Connecting to External Server
Hello,
I installed FMS 2.0 on a server that i have and i'm trying to
connect to it from a local swf file. I have no idea how to
reference the Media Server. Is it by IP? Do I need to set up
something additionally on the server like in IIS? I'm totally
clueless. Any advice or point in the right direction would be
greatly appreciated.
Here is what i'm trying to do...
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.onStatus = function (info)
trace(info.code);
if (info.code == "NetConnection.Connect.Success")
trace("connection successful");
nc.connect("rtmp://SERVERIP/simpleconnect");
how do I reference the remote flash media server?
Thanks in advance?You need to have an application directory on FMS - just
create a subdirectory in the FMS_ROOT/applications directory, name
it "test". Then change your client code to connect to
rtmp://server.domain.com/test (or
rtmp://server.ip.address/test - ip or server name should not
matter)

I want to host my Dreamweaver files on my website. I get to where Dreamweaver is able to connect to my server. I press Ok, then Save, then Done. Then I press Site/Put--and nothing happens! I got all the information about Root Directory (leave blank) etc., from my server Godaddy. So what am I doing wrong? Benjamin
Not sure if this is your problem, I have come across this on a number of occasions when I put the files.
The problem occurs when I have Local view selected and the files are uploaded to the Testing server rather than the Remote server. In this case, I first select Remote server, wait until the files panel has been populated, then go back to Local view and put my files. -
I have been getting the error below on a regular basis when attempting to import Excel, Text, or Access files.
I'm running Office 2010 (SP1), and PowerPivot (SP1). After reading a similar thread I reinstalled PowerPivot. It worked until I closed Excel. Now it recuses to allow import or update of these files. I really need it to work. Anyone have an solution or even
something to try - other than uninstalling and reinstalling PowerPiviot everytime I need to import or refresh files?
Thanks,

============================Hi San,
What's the version of your PowerPivot? Please refer to the article to check the version of PowerPivot for Excel:
http://powerpivot-info.com/post/89-q-how-can-i-check-what-version-of-powerpivot-for-excel-is-installed-on-my-machine
We can download the latest PowerPivot for Excel version from:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29074
In addition, please help to collect windows events log information to us for further investigation. If you cann't import Excel, TEXT or Access data into PowerPivot data model, you can try to directly copy your data into it.

(1) -Firefox keeps crashing for no reason. (2) -I am offered an update but when I say yes to update, the window shows that my MacBook Pro is trying to connect to the server. However, this goes on for hour after hour and never actually connects, or downloads the update. I have also a MacBook Air, which shows the same symptoms.
If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded

Connection to the server failed for email, but internet access is fine.
My iPad 2 worked fine yesterday and today I cannot get mail. The message says connection to the server failed or all of my email accounts. Internet access is fine.
Try again with the e mail. The message means you messed up the settings. Google you ISP and e mail settings. They will tell you the server name for incoming and outgoing. They will be different. Pay attention to port number and be careful to make sure you enter the password right. Since the rest of the internet works, your problem is just with the security on your ISP.

"Safari can't connect to the server" message at some, but not all, websites

PowerMac G5 1.8 GHz Dual Mac OS X (10.4.10) 1.5 G RAM, DSL, 500 GB and 300 GB Internal DisksI apologize for the delay. I took my macbook to the genius bar, and they fixed the issue by deleting some files from the old OS (though I unfortunately don't know how they did this as a manager in the back room took care of it). I still couldn't visit sites using Java as they said Java had somehow installed incorrectly and I would need to reinstall the OS once again to fix this. I continued to use my machine without trying to fix the Java issue for a few weeks. However, without reinstalling the OS, the exact problem has started again. Yesterday I reinstalled OSX 10.6.3 in order to fix the Java issue, hoping it would fix everything, but Java still isn't working, and I still can't visit certain web sites.
I have added those two DNS servers, but that did not solve the issue.
Any advice on how to 1) fix Java and 2) delete the old OS files? I have run all software updates with no luck. -
