Configuration assistant does not find Migration assistant

We tried to move relevant data from Windows XP PC to mac.
Windows PC is almost 10 years old.
Found and installed the latest assistant (mountain lion) on the Windows PC.
Updated the macs software
Turned off the Windows Firewall and antivirus software.
C:\ partition on Windows pc shared with few users, admin has all rights.
Started the Migration assistant on Windows PC.
Then start up the Configuration assistant on the mac.
Both assistants do not see each other.
Connection configurations tried:
PC to Mac with straight utp cable and both static IP.
PC to Mac with Belkin router in between with security turned off.
PC to Mac with Linksys switch and both static IP
Tried to get the Migration job done from remote only, with TeamViewer.
Cannot monitor what's going on on the mac, as it kills all active applications (TeamViewer)
Not yet tried to connect Windows PC in safe mode with network connection to the mac.
Still both assistants cannot see each other, what's wrong here?

What is Configuration Assistant?

Is the HDD in the 2009 15" MBP dead? (The original source of your data) If not, you might want ot take it out and put it in an enclosure.
You might try spotlight on know files to see if that gives you any clues where your data is located.
You might down load from the Internet OmniDiskSweeper (free) and open it. It should show you all of the files you have on your MBP and enable to locate them.

My iMac does not find my wifi printer or my Chromecast.

My iMac does not find my wifi printer or my Chromecast. I was able to ping the chrome cast and printer and I'm able to connect to these devices with my windows computer, iPhone and iPad. I have OS X 10.9.2. I'm able to print by setting up the printer using the IP address that was assigned by my router instead of letting my iMac do the finding. It seems that the iMac either does not like the info that is receiving or something is blocking the signal (other than the firewall, which is off). Could someone have an idea what the issue might be?

Hi MikeMart0923,
If you are having issues adding or connecting to your WiFi printer from your iMac, you may find the following articles helpful (apologies if you have already seen them):
OS X Mavericks: Set up a printer
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14143
OS X: Connecting a Wi-Fi printer to your Wi-Fi network

Note: This is assuming you have a simple network configuration, with only a single router/WiFi access point.

Software does not find the Database server

Hi all,
We are going to move database from old server MSSQL 2005 Express to the MSSQL 2008 R2 STD. For test I backuped DB from old server then restored at the new one. For some reason the software does not find the new server.
I checked everything as from the link described:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/walzenbach/archive/2010/04/14/how-to-enable-remote-connections-in-sql-server-2008.aspx?Redirected=true
Also at the new server we have another production DB that is running without any issues...

It looks like the connection is getting refused because of your application configuration.

ERROR: Cannot start mail services, configuration directory does not exist

I'm running an Xserve G5 with one internal boot drive and one RAID using the other two internal drives. I used Apple's Disk Utility to set-up the RAID.
Back in early December, I moved my mail database and mail store to the RAID. Ever since, when I restart the server, the mailaccess.log generates the following error:
Jan 23 18:51:33 mail master[47]: ERROR: Cannot start mail services, configuration directory does not exist: /Volumes/RAID/mail.data/db
I'm speculating this is a timing error that gets created when Postfix initially can't find the RAID. Then, it must try again and find it because the error message does not repeat and mail starts running.
Is this something to worry about?

Hi Joel,
You're right, it's a timing issues. The mail system is ready for work before the file system is mounted. It's benign.

MS ssis service: registry setting specifying configuration file does not exist. attempting to load default configuration file. SQLIService100 - event id 274

window 2008 R2 server ---- after installing SQL 2008 R2 then applying sp2 / sp3 I noted a warning -
Note this server had SQL 2008 R2 uninstalled previously.

You could search online for this warning. I was able to find http://superuser.com/questions/346264/event-log-warning-registry-setting-specifying-configuration-file-does-not-exist
where the fix is "in your registry, go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTS\ServiceConfigFile
or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\100\ServiceConfigFile
if value is empty then add in:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml"

Airport Setup Utility does not find Airport Express

I have an airport extreme connect to my iMac and today installed an airport express in another room so I can use a printer and speakers for piping iTunes to the other room.
I connected my printer to the Airport Express and plugged the airport express into the socket to power it up. After initially showing a green light, then solid yellow, the airport express showed a blinking yellow light. The airport express is only located 10 feet from my airport extreme base station.
The Airport Setup Utility does not find an extpress in the area and I have even done a hard restart on the express to see if this fixes the problem.
Am I missing anything with the configuration of the airport express? Thanks for your help.

Ahh, I have the same problem... my airport keeps stopping and starting. I then tried using the setup utility with with express and it cannot find it. I tried rescanning, but nothing.

JNDI does not find

Hello fellow Java Programmers ...
Here is my problem - My application uses the JNDI API to browse a directory. I have installed and configured the Tivoli Policy Director 3.8. When my application tries to read the ldap directory now, it fails. I also found that the readily available java "search" testing code which uses JNDI has the same problem also. I must clarify that it HAS a problem reading the directoty now, it did not have any problems before.
Does any one have any clues on what could be wrong and how to go about fixing it ?
Thanks in advance.
Peter

Clarification on the subject - 'JNDI does not find element after Tivoli (IBM PRODUCT!) went through the directory'.
Thanks,
Peter

AIO remote does not find my printer

I changed Internet providers a few months ago. I have not been able to print from my iPhone or iPad since then. AIO remote does not find my printer at all.

Hi,
Both AirPrint and the HP AIO Remote app relies on Multicasting, a such have to be supported and enabled by your router.
Some routers support a such by default, some require settings changes and some do not support Multicasting which required for a such.
Please clarify your router brand and model to better understand any possible steps to try.

Shlomi

Does not find partition

I have 10.7 Lion and all my apps just stopped working (including finder). I tryed to hit the restart button, but it didnt shut down, so I used the Power Button.
When i started it up again, it goes to Mac OS X Utilities and does not find Macintosh HD. (The partition on my hard drive)
And i really does not want to reinstall it, because I have iOS apps in XCode that im developing.
MacBook Pro 13´ 2010 Model (Dont remember what month)
OS X 10.7 Lion
Crashed after debugging iOS app on my iPhone

It just says that my partition is OK . (And its not, because I cant start up my mac)
But, ill try just wipe out all data and restore it from a Time Machine backup

Ipad does not find printer

Iphone and ipad does not find the airprint printer

After I upgraded my iphone and ipad I lost my airprint function. Ipad and Iphone does not find the airprinter. The printer is a HP Photosmart 5520, and it does work wireless with my Windows PC that is on the same nettwork.

In our case the Airprint printers could not be found after IOS upgraded to 7.1.2, all was fine before then. I have scoured the forums and many people have suffered the same problem. All the solutions given are aimed at a domestic network with just a Wireless router. They all involve restarting all the devices and rejoining the IOS devices to the wireless network. Some people have had to do it multiple times before they regained use of the printers.
In my case none of these work because I am talking about a business network with two wireless access points, several switches and a router. To prove it is the IPads I have installed Bonjour onto a Windows PC (Bonjour is the technology used by Airprint). This finds the printers perfectly so it is definitely something that was changed in the version of Bonjour on the IOS 7.1.2 that is causing all the problems.
I was hoping that Apple would release another upgrade to IOS to fix this problem but it has been several weeks so far and nothing has emerged.
So something that worked perfectly a few weeks ago is now dead in the water because of an update on the IPads!!!!!!!!

Bluetooth on iPhone does not find my iPad

Bluetooth on my iPhone does not find iPad when both devices are next to each other.

Envisions99
I agree.
still...my opinions on Apple.....
If you just try to put yourself in their position you will understand better.
Music Rights, security,every body wants something like this and like that- with all they have to consider and take care to get not sued- it is no wonder thta there are some restrictions.
And why ? because they are the only one to realy care an respond to questions and claims. Ever tried to get help from Sony and other Bigies ? Its like talking to a wall.Their support is just a not specific call center. Or did somebody read recently that Sony Erricson was called before the judge because their Cellphones are failing after third time repair (true story), their batteries are burning, their music devices dont let you transfer the music you bought(MiniDisc) and so on? Seldom right?!
If I read news about Apple, I just wonder how many legal challenges Apple has to face.
Looks like kind of sport in the US, to try to get money out of Apple.
`Oh, my laptop did not work last night so I could not read the email from my love.
I realy became so depressed and my heart aches therefore soooo much . I aske Apple to compensate
for this with ähhh.... 1 million $ ?! `
cheers,
;-)arry

My airport utility does not find my airport express device

My airport utility does not find my airport express device

In order for the AirPort Utility on your iOS device to find the Express, both need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. By default, the Express will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a network name of something like: Apple Network NNNNNN. Can you iOS device find this network?

My iPad 2 does not find my Big Blue Live speaker! What do I do?

My iPad 2 does not find my Big Blue Live speaker! What do I do?

Make sure you're using an original apple ipad charger and plugging into a wall outlet to charge, not computer.
Its possible that the charger is bad and may need replacing.
Its also possible that the battery has gone bad and it may need replacing.
Apple does offer battery replacement, you will have to send to them or take it to an apple store.
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=servicefaq&geo=United_States&product=ipad
Before you do that though, I would recommend reading through these links first for some more information on how your battery works, needs to be charged and maintained.
Apple Batteries - iPad
http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
