File sharing problems with my Media Player, an A C Ryan

I have a media player, an A C Ryan, hooked up to my wifi at home and it normally accesses all my hard disks that is plugged and shared on my iMac. I had no problems when the iMac was on Snow Leopard. Under Network/Workgroup in the AC Ryan's menu, I can see and access all the files on the hard disks.
The moment I upgraded to Lion, all such access was lost. The AC Ryan cannot connect to the hard disks any more via the wifi network. it's as though file sharing has stopped completely. I checked the file sharing settings on the iMac and nothing has changed i.e. the disks were shared as usual. After struggling with many possible solutions and failing (I checked out a lot of forums), I reintalled Snow Leopard and the problems were immediately solved.
Is there something seriously wrong with Lion's file-sharing? Has this been fixed in 10.7.2? My friend who has a similar setup (his media player is the WD Live) has exactly the same file sharing problem with Lion.
I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks!

I believe that NTFS-3G has issues with Lion.
I use Paragon NTFS and have had no issues at all. I am pretty sure that NTFS-3G will get updated, but you need to check their site to find out when.

    You can change the default program for opening files with the following:
    Set your default programs
    Open Default Programs by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Default Programs.
    Click Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
    Click the file type or protocol that you want the program to act as the default for.

  • Problem with Windows Media Player -- saving, transferring

    Operating system:   Windows 7 Home Premium       
    Product: HP Pavilion P6000 Series
    Windows Media Player
    Copy short videos onto a thumbnail drive from a different computer running Windows 7 with Windows Media Player.    Thumbnail drive accepts files, lists and can play back fine on same computer.    Take thumbnail drive to different computer also running/using Windows Media Player & Windows 7, and playback only plays back audio -- no picture.  What am I doing wrong? 

    As WMP is not a DVD player, my suggestion would be to tell your clients to never use WMP.All our DVD discs go out with a warning not to allow WMP to be used.
    In most computer setups, WMP does not play back video correctly as it does not have an MPEG codec installed, or has navigational problems.
    All computers that have a DVD drive fitted, will have a dedicated DVD software player installed, such as Win DVD or Power DVD, so why not use that?

  • Any problems with Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X?

    I want to be able to play video from CNN.com, but it says I need Windows Media Player 9. Before I download it, I want to know if it is reliable.
    I've already got Flip4Mac, and that doesn't help. (I get a -2048 error.)
    Please share experiences with Windows Media Player 9 for Mac OS X so I can decide whether or not to download it.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    The default application you're looking for is "Stuffit Expander".
    http://www.stuffit.com/mac/expander/ is the page you'll be looking for...think Winzip for Mac. Once stuffit is installed you should be able to open the .sitx or .hqx file you may have downloaded...essentially a package that stuffit can open for you so you can install media player.

  • Problem with Windows media player on MAC

    I got a new macbook and installed windows vista. When I wanted to play CDs on windows media player there comes a message"windows media player have aproblem..." and the window closes. I contacted the Microsoft support system and they said that the it is the problem with the mac that the Macbook is not really supporting some of the files and they told me to contact the Apple support and even then they could not solve the problem. I returned the first laptop and got a new Macbook again and even the second macbook has the same problem. Could anmy one tell me why this is happening? If your a Macbook user with windows, did you notice this kind of similar problem? Please do let me know. Thanking you.

    If you have the current version of Microsoft Windows Media Player for Mac installed, there is little you can do. The WMPFM is not kept as current as the Windows version (IMO, I think MS hates Apple - and this is intentional).

  • Problems with Windows Media Player for OSX and IMAC G5 Intel Duo

    I was able to download Windows Media Player 9 for Mac but when I surf on the net and I click on the WMP files, instead of opening automatically, it downloads the content and only then lets me open it.
    Also, with live streaming, when I click for the window to open it will say that: "Some content on this page requires an Internet plug-in that Safari doesn’t support. The application “Windows Media Player” may be able to display this content. Would you like to try?".
    Except that I already downladed WMP... It worked fine with the PowerPc G5 so it must be the Intel chip. Please help.

    Microsoft has abandoned WMP for the Mac and has ceased development. You may wish to consider and alternative!
    WMP 9 for Mac is not a Universal binary, so it does not run natively on Intel iMacs. It runs using Rosetta. If the WMP plugin is installed in HD/Library/Internet Plugins/ for it to run usable by Safari you must be using Safari with Rosetta.
    I have two versions of Safari, Safari - Uni & Safari - Rose, Uni runs natively and Rose uses Rosetta. To make a Rose version;
    1. Right-click Safari and choose Duplicate
    2. Rename the copy whatever you like to tell it from the other; ex: Safari - Rose
    3. Right-click Safari - Rose and choose Get Info
    4. In the top pane of the Info window check the box Run using Rosetta.
    You need to use Safari -Rose for websites with WMP multimedia material to get it to play in the browser.
    There are also WMP replacements that you can use with Safari such as Flip4Mac and others. Here is a Discussion that covers many of the alternatives;

  • Problems with Windows Media Player for Mac's

    Is it safe to download and opperate Windows media player for Mac's to view video on the web ?
    Anybody has experience with it ? What are possible problems that may be encountered ? Thanks for any input or feedback.

    "Is it safe to download and opperate Windows media player"
    Sure, why not?
    You should know that's it's discontinued, and no longer developed by Microsoft, and therefore will never be native to Intel Macs. You should look to the free Flip4Mac QuickTime plugin from flip4mac.com

  • File sharing problems with T500 and T410 and a desktop all running XP Pro SP3

    Others have had similar problems with what appears to be an overriding of Windows file sharing by Access Connections.
    My three computers, printers and internet modem are networked and working fine both wired and wirelessly except that while the desktop computer in network places can "see" shared folders on the Thinkpads, access to them is denied. Access to desktop shared folders from the Thinkpads works fine.
    All the usual sharing settings have been checked and verified by Microsoft support; it does not so far have a solution.
    Could this issue please be addressed more thoroughly and/or suitable documentation referenced? I have read the blurb about Access Connections but can't make a lot of sense of it.
    Thanks

  • Zen Touch sync problem with Windows Media Player

    Please can someone tell me how to get my zen touch to sync with WMP it worked fine until i was advised to install an update to it and it has stopped recognising it! I'm using windows Xp home and have the latest "plays for sure" firmware on the player, Also another problem i cannot install the creative mediasource software to the pc as its wants the player connected and it doesn't recognise the player either!!! the player is recognised in the device manager though can anyone help me please thanks in advance.

    I am having a similar problem. I've upgraded firmware(2..0), mediasource(5.0.38), drivers(plays for sure), and Media player(), in that order. After each update, I checked how things worked. That's how I discovered I needed the next. With WMP 0, things were working fine, but I wanted WMP back on my computer. Since then, in CMS5 it takes about 7 minutes to load the player, at least 0 minutes (or sometimes not at all) to edit anything (tag info or playlist) and WMP hangs completely. I've seen that other people have gotten this combination to work with their Zen touch players. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Any ideas on how to fix this?

  • File sharing problem with a PC . locked Folder Icons and funny things

    Help was running Tiger fine then upgraded to leopard now my Macbook pro wont shut down properly unless i disconnect all the external USB devices that are attached.
    I also used to be able to write to my shared folder on my Windows PC, this comes up on my mac Book pro now with a locked disk icon on it and i cant save to it. the folders inside it also start changing there icon appearance at will. and some times when i try to save a file to it it keeps telling me the file name is too long even if i change it to only one or two characters .
    would not mind too much but this is my business thats being effected by this . I have tried it on 2 Imac
    Dual core flat panel machine's which still run in tiger and everything is fine with both of these so i know its Leopard that has caused these faults. anyone with any help please let me know .
    ian

    *Same problem* here: MacBook on Tiger was fine, after installing Leo, unable to write on shared pc-folders (lock-icon).
    There are 2 work-arounds I found:
    1. uncheck the "protected" box in the info-panel (Mac) of a locked folder,
    2. if the pc-folder had a custom icon, resetting to standard will unlock the write protection as well. In both cases, the folders on the pc will change their icons... I have to agree that this is a Leopard issue.
    As I use the Mac for work and often have to exchange docs from and to pc's this "bug" is annoying me.

  • File sharing problem with EG005W

    Hello,
    I'm having problems recognizing shared drives when using the EG005W switch on my Linksys network.
    Here's my configuration:
    ADSL --> SpeedStream 4200 modem --> LinksysWRT54G Wireless Router --> EG005W Gigabit Switch
    Computer A = XP with EG1032 gigabit adapter
    Computer B = XP with EG1032 gigabit adapter
    Computer C = Vista with EG1032 gigabit adapter
    Computer D = XP with wireless WMP54G adapter
    When A, B, and C are wired to the WRT54G router and everything is powered up, they are happy and all shared folders are visible in the network and internet access is ok.
    When A, B, and C are wired to the EG005W switch and everything is powered up, B and C can share folders but none of the other computers are visible in the network (receive the message "MShome not accessible...".  However access to the internet is available on all computers.
    When A, B, and C are wired to the WRT54G router and everything is powered up, then the A, B, and C are pulled out of WRT54G and plugged into EG005W they are happy and all shared folders are visible in the network and internet access is ok.
    I'd like to keep A, B, and C plugged into the switch and not have to always move things around.  Any ideas?

    weird problem you got there. have you tried pinging or mapping the A or D instead when they did not appear on the network places? imo, the switch shouldn't be causing any problem here since it is just a pass-through device.
