Finder beachballs when accessing AFP share...

Hello Everyone...
I have been plagued by a recent inability to open AFP sharepoints, from two MacBooks using the Connect to Server menu item running OS X Lion. This just started happening a few days ago, and I've spent my fair-share of hours trying to resolve it with no luck.
This doesn't seem to be an issue with my wife's G4 running Leopard, nor my spare Mac running Snow Leopard, both fully patched respectively. The same sharepoint opens quite fast upon authentication on these systems.
Note: The server is running Snow Leopard Server, with only 5 clients connecting to it.
The sharepoint does end up opening on Lion, however it takes about 6 minutes to do so. After it mounts on the desktop, it works flawlessly!
Thoughts??
Thanks!

Finder Crash when accessing SMB share

iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo.
When opening a particular share on an SMB server, the Finder crashes and relaunches. Does not happen on other shares on the same server. Happens for all users on this Mac. Does not happen on other Macs.
Have tried deleting finder.plist and windowserver.plist, and cleaning caches with Onyx and Cocktail.
Note: also crashes on some DMGs.
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Finder hangs when accessing external drive

My finder hangs when accessing an external drive.
It is specific to a drive the I created on my TC disk.
That drive and TC work perfectly unless I mouint it and alter anything on that disk (I can read ok but writing causes a freeze.)
The writing that I do is always ok; if I trash or move something it always ends up where I wanted it after a restart.
The process looks like:
I drag an item to the trash (or another directory) and the progress bar shows success down to 3 or 5 seconds and then it stops (curser becomes a spinning beach ball.)
I can hear the tone of a successful transfer if I wait a little while but the finder is unresponsive untill I restart.
Once restarted I can check the external disk and the file transer (to a directory or the trash) appears to have completed without corruption.
I have repaired drives and permissions all over the place with no results.
Can I just say that I tired of constant unnecessary updates that slow my computer, rearrange my settings and cause crashes and other problems that have to be researched and chased down through hours of online troubleshooting. I would love to have thoroughly tested software and hardware that just works without the hassle of having to constantly tweek my machine to get it to work consistantly.

Are you saying you have this problem only with one drive, not with others?

User can't access afp shares

About once every other day one of my users losses the ability to log onto afp shares on the server.
In the Server App under Users his "Allow user to log in" tick box has become unticked. If I tick that and save, everything is fine for a day or so then it becomes unticked on its own again. As usual with computers in generally becomes unticked at a crucial point when everyone is busy !!
Any help would be appreciated. I can see nothing unusual in the logs and I have tried reseting his password.

I just went from 10.8.5 to 10.9.2 and have this same problem. I first noticed in DNS 127.0.0.1 was removed during install and not put back. From there I got everyhting working except afp.
Error message is:
Kerberos fail: gss_acquire_cred major status_value <458752> minor status_value <0>
major error <1>: No credentials were supplied, or the credentials were unavailable or inaccessible.

Any solutions out there? This is pretty critical for TM backups around the office.

Finder acting weird on AFP shares

Hi everyone,
I am using an OS X 10.8.5 Server with mostly 10.6.8 Clients. The clients usually open, save, copy to and from AFP shares provided by the server. Sometimes it happens that a client gets thrown out of a folder it is currently viewing on the AFP share. Once this behaviour starts it is near impossible to navigate down on the folder hierarchy since you get teleported back 1 to 3 levels. The number of levels depends on how fast you managed to drill down before you get thrown back. So an example would be:
The client views folder A on /Volumes/AFPShare/Stuff/Folder1
You start to navigate to a folder residing inside Folder1. If you now wait for a few seconds Finder will throw you out and back to Folder1. If you mangage to drill a few levels down really fast you might make it to /Volumes/AFPShare/Stuff/Folder1/data/more/here. But then you immediately are teleported back to /Volumes/AFPShare/Stuff/Folder1.
From this point it won’t ever work again until you unmount and remount the share. Sometimes even a reboot of the client is neccessary. It happens with ~10 clients so it is not just one isolated client acting weird. On the Server side I did not notice anything wrong or weird happening. There are no backups, syncs or other tasks running on the server while this occurs. It seems to happen more often when you are using list view (cmd+2), but I have already seen it with column view, too.
I’ve read about similar problems with SMB, but I am really stumped at where to look next. I already ruled out that it’s just with 1 client Mac. Deleting .DS_Store files did not help (not that I counted on that one).
Another weird thing in addition to that is that sometimes the Finder shows folders twice or even more often. These are exactly named the same. Sometimes they disappear when you want to click on one of them.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Björn

Oh great! I had hoped it would go away. I suspect AFP to be the culprit. Since 10.9 defaults to the new SMB2 it might help to explicitly connect via SMB instead.
I am not sure since it’s been a while, but I believe the problem was happening less often if you disable both preview options using cmd+j in the Finder. Might be worth a try…

Active Directory: Odd behavior when accessing network shares

I'm not very clear on how OS X handles AD integration, but I'm having an odd problem, perhaps someone may know the answer.
AD is bound and working properly.
I am successfully logging in with an AD account that is set to 'mobile' mode.
Two questions:
1. Why is it that when I access a share that I have rights to access, I am prompted for my user name and password? I am already logged in with a domain account and validated by the domain controller. This is not a big problem, but I am curious.
2. Why is it that I am denied access to some shares, and others I can connect to but cannot see their contents, yet logged into a Windows machine with the same AD account, I can access all of them just fine? This one is a big problem.
I'm hoping there are just more things I need to configure to get it to work. Either way, I'm having fun learning all of this.
Thanks,
-Travis

XP Mode Crashes When Accessing Network Shares

I am using Windows 7 Professional and have installed XP Mode to use a legacy accounting application.
In the Virtual Machines folder on the host under settings I have set the network adapter to Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller.
Under XP Mode, I have set XP to be a member of the workgroup and I am logging on with a user who can access network. When I run XP Mode I can access the internet with Internet Explorer.
If I then go to "My Network Places" "View Workgroup Computers" I can see all the workgroup computers on the network. If I then double click on a computer name Windows Explorer shows me all the shared directories on that computer.
This is where the problem occurs. If I then click on a shared directory XP Mode instantly exits and restarts. (Windows 7 is unaffected.)
Does anyone have any idea's as how I can access all the shared directories to view the files stored on the network.

Miya Yao, Thank you for your reply.
Can other computer in the workgroup see the shared directory in Windows XP Mode? I don't know exactly what you mean by this. No other computers in the workgroup are running XP Mode. They are running native XP Professional. (It was my original idea to run
a physical XP laptop together with Windows 7 desktop to access the data files required, before I read about XP Mode.)
All workgroup computers can access network shares, if the user has appropriate permissions. I have shared the "Shared Documents" under XP Mode and this share can be accessed by all other computers on the network including the host. However, if I access this
share from the guest via "View Workgruop Computers" as in my first post, XP Mode instantly quits and restarts. For information the XP Mode user name and password is the same as the host user name and password.
I have checked the Event Viewer both before I first posted and again today. There are no entries recorded. However, I should have mentioned that upon restarting XP Mode I get "The system has recovered from a serious error" the details of which are:-
BCCode : 10000050 BCP1 : FFFFFF8A BCP2 : 00000001 BCP3 : F7F23661
BCP4 : 00000000 OSVer : 5_1_2600 SP : 3_0 Product : 256_1
If I send the error report I am taken to thsi web page:-
http://wer.microsoft.com/responses/Response.aspx/603/en-us/5.1.2600.2.00010100.3.0?SGD=316378af-10a1-428a-9016-074d398ed1a1
The page talks about testing RAM. RAM is fine. There is 8GB of physical RAM. It was tested with memtest86+ v2.10 and v4.20 separately. v4.20 was run for 12 hours plus with no errors detected. I have tried adjusting XP Mode RAM under settings but this makes
no difference.
The issue happens when accessing all shared directories including empty ones.
I clean booted the computer and yes the issue still exists.
If I use dos to view a directory under XP Mode the problem exists, by typing
\\SERVER\SHARE\FOLDERNAME .
By using the host I can map a shared directory. Then under XP Mode I can access the share from my computer. I have noticed by mapping S: to a Network Share that in Windows Explorer in XP Mode the path is
\\tsclient\S\ . Is this normal?
Under Windows 7 the same share appears as S:\ as I would expect.
However, I would prefer not to have to map and un-map different Network Shares to drive letters.
It should have been mentioned in my first post, host is Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I don't know the build but it is full retail version (not upgrade) from when first released - prior to SP1. All updates have been applied including SP1.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Finder freezes when accessing Time Capsule

Hello everybody, I'm experiencing a problem with my Time Capsule 4th Gen 2Tb. My Macbook Pro 15" Core i7 4GB (early 2011) doesn't access my TC hard disk anymore. I can access and configure every feature with the AirPort Utility, and the wi-fi works pretty well (as always did). Even Finder recognize the Time Capsule's HD on the Shared Disks section. But, every time i try to access the HD, Finder stops for a second or two and then come back to life (without opening TC's hard disk folders)
I tried downgrading my Macbook to Mountain Lion, and upgrading again to Maverick. Both OSXs once worked just fine with my TC. I also tried soft, hard and factory resets on the Time Capsule. I even tried formating TC's hard disk.
I believe Time Capsule's HD isn't corrupted because I can access it perfectly with my PC (Windows 8.1) and my iPad 3rd Gen (iOS7). With then i can read and write the disk.
And now the stranger part: Time Machine works fine with my TC's hard disk. It just backed me up on TC's HD. (Nope, i can't restore my mac becuase i lost all of my previous backups).
Does anybody have a clue?

It sounds like network issues which are fairly common .. more so with Mavericks but even Mountain Lion (and Lion) are far poorer than Snow Leopard which was solid.
Let me recommend another factory reset.
I want you to name the TC precisely as follows.. so when you go through the airport utility do not follow the apple recommended setup.
TC base name.. TCgen4
TC wireless name.. TCwifi
Please use only passwords that are also compliant.. pure alphanumeric which can be mixed case plus numbers.. but no special characters.
Make sure the disk share name is also short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. The newer utility uses data which is fine.. older ones used Time Capsule which is not.
Make sure the computer has IPv6 set to link-local.. this is really important.
Do the same for ethernet if you use it.
Then manually mount the disk in Finder.. use Go, Connect to server.
AFP://TCgen4 (replace with the actual name if you don't follow my recommend).
OR and even better.
AFP://10.0.1.1 (or whatever the IP is .. but it must be static) When you use the TC as main router it is default to 10.0.1.1 and by supplying that info directly the computer has less issues finding it.
Make sure the computer then finds the network resource and it will ask you for disk password.. please type that in and save in your keychain.. I stick to public which results in an error (you are supposed to change from default password but I ignore it).
The TC disk should then mount on the computer and you should have no issues accessing it.. if you do.. please tell me the whole network layout.
It is much better to test with the computer directly connected by ethernet to the TC. Do not connect via another router or switch at this stage.
Tell me more.. much more... if you can if you have issues.
Netstat scan can be very revealing. Open Network Utility and run the scan. Post screenshot of that as well as what you have in the airport utility for the setup.

Finder crashes when accessing my external hard drive

I have a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex 1TB external hard drive where I keep a lot of my extra data. Very recently, I can't pin-point exactly when, the hard drive has been causing Finder to crash, most of the time irreparably -- and by irreparably I mean it will crash and I'll try to relaunch it but it won't work, in fact it won't actually relaunch unless I then click the Finder icon (which had no dot under it), after which it will immediately launch into an "Application Not Responding" state.
The reason I believe it is the external hard drive is because I have two computers, both of which have the same problems when doing stuff with the hard drive, and neither have problems when the hard drive isn't plugged in.
Some weird things: I have been accessing an excel document on the drive and have been saving the document this entire time -- before I began to think that it was the hard drive causing these problems. It seems as though I could open that document and save it without any apparent problems. Same sort of thing when I used Ableton Live recently. I could access my sample library on the external drive through Live's browser and it would seem to work just fine. However, with Live, when I tried to save a project it would immediately crash Live (presumably because Live is trying to save via Finder or something?). I can't remember if Finder would subsequently crash or not, but I remember having terrible issues with Finder crashing around the times I would be using Live and trying to save.
I tried doing a Repair Disk on the external through Disk Utility, but after it was showing only the stripey progress bar down at the bottom and only saying "Verifying and Reparing Disk," for a little while I stopped it and tried to quit Disk Utility, only to have Disk Utility crash and now Finder crash as well.
Another couple of things to note. Finder is not able to copy something to or from the external, or move something from the external to the trash. It will be stuck at 0 percent progress and if I press the x it will say "Stopping" and never go away. However when I do that and then just unplug my external I immediatley get a "Disk removed improperly" dialog and Finder will work again right away.

Remove maudio, specifically that com.maudio.usb.fasttrackpro.driver. If you just move that out of /System/Library/Extensions (or if there is an installer) you need to reboot after adding/deleting kext's.
If no software was installed by you then somehow that external got that com.seagate.SeagateStorageGauge.plist installed in your /Library/LaunchAgents. If the maudio removal doesn't change anything then this segat launchagent is the next to go.

Finder freezes when accessing an external drive

I have been using WD 3TB green drives in docks for storage for years. For the last 6 months occasionally I will access one of the drives and the finder freezes up, I will then need to restart the computer. When I try to mount my drive I get a "The disk inserted was not readable by this computer". I do not want to loose the data so I will not initialize the drive. Disk Utility will not even recognize the drive nor will Disk Warrior. In order to save the data I need to use a recovery software. I use Ontrack EasyRecovery Home, it works great but is taxing on the computer and takes a lot of time. So does anybody know why this is happening? Is it a problem with my computer or the manufacturing of the drives?
Probably a coincidence, but this has only happened to the WD green drives since they changed the packaging from green to yellow.

Finder crashes when accessing hard drive

Everything was working fine until I installed Font Doctor and started using it to examine my fonts. It would crashed when I hit this one folder. I tried it again and identified the exact font folder that was causing the problem (or so I thought). I restarted the computer and decided to get rid of that font folder, but all my fonts are on my main hard drive, and everytime I click on the hard drive the finder crashes and comes up with a default window, so I can't access it. I can access files/programs through applications or user, and I can access specific files on the main hard drive through the programs but can't get into the hard drive directory.
I did a search on this site and found this link:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=964617&tstart=90
I thought it was the answer, especially since I had an old version of Stuffit on my system so I deleted Stuffit using the link enclosed. But when I did a search afterwards (after emptying the trash and restarting) it still showed stuffit things on my hard drive, not in the user or library folders which I can access, but on my main hard drive which I can't access.
I looked at the code and it showed some of the same things that the previous poster mentioned.
Here is some of the latest code after I restarted yet again:

Any ideas?
Thanks so much!

Hi Barry,
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I did buy diskwarrior on my way home, ran it a few times. No success. It did identify problems it couldn't fix with a lot of the files that were in my suspect folder (a font folder) but since I can't access the files directly on my hard drive I can't get rid of them.
I did follow your suggestion, but all that it did that I can see was scatter my folders on the desktop.
Yet, while typing this, I just found a creative way to solve the problem!!! I was able to access the font folder in Bridge even though I couldn't access it otherwise. I deleted it in bridge and now things are working as normal!!! Thank God for Bridge. Amazing. Especially since that font folder has been on this machine for months, and the previous machine for years without ever causing a problem...

Slow finder Browsing when accessing LAN via VPN connexion

I am running ML Server, latest upadte on a 2010 Mac Mini Server machine.
When I am connected to my network from a remote location via VPN, and I try to browse my LAN structure with Finder, it takes ages for the list of folders/files to appear and refresh.
I have checked my VPN configuration and tried different type (L2TP, PPTP) but nothing significantly differ in term of browsing speed.
I also appreciate that the network connection at the remote location, as well as the upload speed on my local network can influence the overwal browsing speed... but after several test, I confirm I have more than 3 Mbps bandwith for upload on the local network, and 20 Mbps minimum on the remote location.
I also tried AFP / SMB, but does not seem to change anything.
So, I guess I hope the Community has already experienced the issue and some of you guys may have found a workaround to this issue.
Many thanks.

why not try cisco ipsec
Input the following settings:
Interface: VPN
VPN Type: Cisco IPSec
Service Name: This can be anything, I left the default.
Edit the new interface details as follows:
Server Address: cisco.vpntraffic.com or other country vpn such as Portugal VPN
Account Name: Your vpn account
Password: Your vpn password

Finder crashes when accessing network drive

We have four macs on our network. When trying to access a volume on our network drive Finder crashes. The drive is accessible via FTP as well as From Windows Machines. Its only on Finder that we are having the problem. Everything use to work.
Im on an iMac, my Finder totally spazes out. Blinking off an on. On another system it just crashes. On the other two systems it just won't access the drive & Finder closes.Just started today.
If anyone know what this is please help!

Hide finder window when automatically mounting share

Hi all,
I'm using the System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items to auto mount a samba share. It all works fine, but finder opens each of these directories when I login and I'm getting tired of having to close the windows. I tried ticking "hide" in the Login Items window,but finder still opens.
I'n not sure if there is a problem with the "hide" but it does not work. Is there a way to get around this?
Thanks

you might want to try something like this:
paste the following into Script Editor
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
delay 5
tell application "Finder" to close every window</pre>
save it as an application and add it to login items. the delay time in the above is in seconds and you might want to adjust it as needed.

Finder Crashing When Accessing Documents Folder

When trying to open my Documents folder, I click on Hard Drive, Users and then my Account folder. Finder then instantly restarts. I have run Disk Utility and verified/ repaired disk permissions. Also have Verified disk but have been unable to run the repair disk as needed. Somehow I have also misplaced my restore CD so I need options to fix this.

Tough without a Tiger Disk, but try fsck...
To use fsck, you must run it from the command line. Unlike using your mouse to open an application to do something, you'll need to type a text command at the prompt (#) to tell fsck what to do. The Terminal application (/Applications/Utilities) and single-user mode are two examples of command-line interfaces in which you can type such commands. To use fsck:
1. Start up your computer in single-user mode to reach the command line. Hold CMD+s keys down at bootup. Note: If necessary, perform a forced restart as described in the Emergency Troubleshooting Handbook that came with your computer. On desktop computers, you can do this by pressing the reset/interrupt button (if there is one) or holding down the power button for several seconds. On portable computers, simultaneously press the Command-Control-power keys. If your portable computer doesn't restart with this method, you may need to reset the Power Manager.
2. At the command-line prompt, type /sbin/fsck -fy
(space between fsck and -fy important)
3. Press Return. fsck will go through five "phases" and then return information about your disk's use and fragmentation. Once it finishes, it'll display this message if no issue is found: ** The volume (nameofvolume) appears to be OK  If fsck found issues and has altered, repaired, or fixed anything, it will display this message: *** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***   Important: If this message appears, repeat the fsck command you typed in step 2 until fsck tells you that your volume appears to be OK (first-pass repairs may uncover additional issues, so this is a normal thing to do).
4. When fsck reports that your volume is OK, type reboot at the prompt and then press Return.
