Firewire disk not visible in Workgroup Manager

I'm setting up an only MAC server for our graphic arts class in our middle school.
The server is a G4 with a small HD, so I have an external Maxtor firewire drive I wanted to use for file storage.
The firewire drive shows up on the server desktop, but not in Workgroup Manager. I've checked for other ways to share the firewire drive, but can't find anything.
Any ideas?
Thanks.....
I want to make a good showing with the MAC server to try and convince the school skepticx.

I can't remember if this is a requirement or not.... (easier to try it than look-up answers in docs sometimes)...
Is the FW drive in MS-DOS format (look at it with Disk Utility). If so, try erasing it in Disk Utility and switch to Mac OS Extended (journaled optional but recommened).

    System profiler knows it's there.
    Disk Utility indicates that it can be un-mounted (only a generic 'turned down page' for volume icon however), Disk has full Hard Drive logo...
    But I cannot access it on this machine, but plug it into another and it's ok...

    (only a generic 'turned down page' for volume icon however), Disk has full Hard Drive logo...
    You can see that appearance in Disk Utility if the volume permissions are such that the current user has "No Access."
    Since it can be accessed normally from another machine, connect it there and do a Get Info from Finder, looking at the Ownership and Permission Details at the bottom. Assuming this is not a startup disk, if any of the permissions is set to "No Access", change it to "Read and Write". Don't click "Apply to enclosed items" however.

  • AEBSn + USB disk, not visible in Windows

    Have been using AEBSn as access point for last 6 months. Now added a LaCie MacMini drive via the USB port on AEBSn but am unable to access it via the LAN. I know this is a common problem and have checked the settings described in some of the responses to no avail.
    The disk is formatted as HFS and can be accessed using MacDrive when directly attached to PC. The disk name is currently "Lemon" (so no funny characters).
    AEBSn has latest firmware (7.2.1), the disk is visible under "disks" on the Airport Utility, file sharing is enabled with base station password, guest access is read & write and disks are advertised globally using Bonjour.
    I have tried to access from three different PCs. The latest Bonjour (1.0.4) is loaded and is enabled in firewall (AVG in 2 and Windows in other). From Windows Explorer I can see the AEBS (properties shows it as a CIFS server) but it has no folders. The Airport Disk Agent is running in the system tray but does not detect any disks.
    Please help, my central back strategy is in ruins!

    Hi, I just got my usb disk working!
    I got Airport Extreme (the latest one), all the firmware updates (7.2.1) one pc with WINXP. A 500Gb USB disk from Packard Bell. I want to connect the drive to the Airport and serve files over the wireless.
    my trouble was that while I could see the disk in airport utility, I could not actually connect: wrong password, user etc.
    As the disk is visible in Airport Utility and the Extreme station is visible in the disk management utility in the status bar, I concluded that there must be a problem outside of the Airport Extreme. Indeed, this I found to be in my network settings, which I easily fixed by installing Microsoft Client for Networks. Practically I did this by Start>Network settings right click Properties. then selected the wireless network right click properties once more. Under the General tab I checked for the presence of Microsoft Client for Networks, it wasn't there so on the same screen I click Install.. select Clients and fianlly Microsoft Client for Networks. Bingo.
    I hope this helps, I spent a whole day looking around in this forum and no one has suggested this. So I do and wish you good luck! (now to see if I can get the music onto my Airport Express!!!)

  • Printers are not visible in Print management

    Installed print server feature in Windows server 2012 .We have added few printers in server, but these printers are not visible in printers section of Print management console.Even the default Microsoft XPS writer is not showing up.
    Restarted Spooler service and reinstalled print management console.Server DNS record looks good too.
    Able to view the printers in "Device and printers" .They are not visible only in print management console.
    Thanks

    Hi Daemon_Joker,
    Please check if some necessary updates need to be installed. Please run
    sfc /scannow command to scan all protected system files.
    Meanwhile, please use
    Get-Printer PowerShell cmdlet retrieves a list of printers installed on the computer. Did all printers display correctly?
    In addition, please open Print Management, click Printer Servers, expand
    your printer server, then right click Printers and select “Add Printer…”. Please check if you will be able to find printers via this wizard.
    If anything I misunderstand or any update, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,

  • Navigator Not Visible in Directory Manager

    On Win XP Pro Oracle Directory service does not start on boot, even though it is set to do so automatically. It will start manually from the Windows services app. After starting the service, oidctl runs successfully from the command line "C:\>oidctl connect=oid90 server=oidldapd instance=3 configset=0 start"
    On start up Oracle Directory Manager (ODM) accepts the orcladmin/welcome logon and displays the connecting message and loading schema message. ODM opens but does not display the Navigator panel. ODM seems to be connected to the database because Objects, attributes, entries etc. are visible by selecting choices from the Operations menu.
    When OID was first installed the navigator sometimes did and sometimes did not display. Now it is never displayed.
    Any suggestions appreciated.

    Hi Jay,
    I am a Business Analyst and would like to get Oracle Workflow running so I can play with Workflow Builder. I'm just trying to get my hands dirty with this stuff. I want to use OID as a directory server for workflow.
    I uninstalled 9.0.1.1 in installed 9.2.x.x. The results are similar.
    The Bind request to LDAP failed error re-appeared. I had somehow worked around this on the previous install but I don't know how. The command ldapbind -h trburns -p 389 -D cn=orcladmin -w ohwgwead returns Cant contact ldap server. The error seems to be common as it appears in numerous postings but I havent seen a clearly described explanation and solution.
    Do you have access to Oracles knowledge base? It must have a description of this problem.
    I can open ODM after the bind failure by clicking the close icon. Double clicking the banner works in cases where the navigator tree is not visible. Many thanks for that tip.
    Any authoritative information you could provide about the bind problem would be appreciated.
    Thanks again,
    Tom

  • LDAPv3 not working with Workgroup Manager

    Hello,
    I recently started at a new job, and it appears the previous guy did not know how to set things up properly so I have been fixing all of his mistakes. But this one has me pulling out my hair.
    Anytime I try to set the Workgroup local directory to LDAPv3 I get this message in the console
    10/09/08 9:00:40 AM Workgroup Manager[219] Got unexpected error of type ePlugInNotActive (-14278) on line 3873 of /SourceCache/WorkgroupManager/WorkgroupManager-319/PMMUGMainView.mm
    10/09/08 9:00:40 AM [0x0-0x23023].com.apple.WorkgroupManager[219] dsOpenDirNode failed with error of type -14278
    I know there is a problem but just can't find it, and I can't find any information on resolving the ePlugInNotActive -14278 error
    Can anyone help or steer me in the right direction.
    Thank you,
    Any other info you need just ask

    No There isn't a page that would show that it was turned off other than the services list. But my point in all that was this is their device, and the guy knew that it used a dial up connection. So, knowing how your hardware works, you would assume that they would check to make sure it is running. Considering that most "Optimization" programs turn this off because no one uses a dial up connection anymore. I would think this just falls under the trouble shooting diagnosis train of thought. And I'm not saying that they guy didn't try, nor that he wasn't nice on the phone. I was just frustrated that something so simple seems to have a lot of people saying that verizon isn't thinking any more. LIKE MY INCREDIBLE THAT STILL ISN'T HERE. But don't get me started on that rant. I mean how can you finally advertise that you have a phone that is better than apple, and not know there is going to be a rush on the bank so to speak?

  • Webcam not visible in Device Manager

    Hello,
    after a reinstalltion of windows 7 on my HP Pavilion 55SG the Webcam (HP TrueVision HD) is not visible in the device manager. I´ve searched for drivers of it but on the hp page there are none.
    I have already installed cyberlinks youcam, but it says there is no webcam on my pc.
    Is there any key combination to activate the webcam?
    Thanks in advance!

    Firstly I would like you to know that the Webcam might indeed be disconnected - it happens.  The tiny wires that connect the webcam camera are fragile; they might disconnect, become twisted, or be crushed along the hinge area.  The damage can occur at any time, or it may never happen.  I have had some notebooks for many years in which the webcam has always remained fully functional.  Every notebook is different.

  • 2nd Internal Hard Disk Not visible on desktop

    Hello,
    Last night I was trying to rename some files and my G5 was acting very slowly. I relaunched the finder and it seemed to fix the problem. I resumed renaming files and it kept locking up. After the fourth time this happened, the system locked up and I pushed the front power button until the system shut down. When I turned the computer back on, my second internal hard drive was not visible. I looked in disk utility and did not see it, and it is also not visible in about this mac. Help!!!

    HI
    I have a similar problem that the second drive does not always appear on starting up from cold but usualy appears on a hot restart
    second drive is a Hitachi HDS725050KLA360 primary drive: HDS725050KLA360 (465.76 GB)
    (Telephone support was useless)
    It has been operating since March Photoshop and Aperture applications I do power down every night.
    And back up to external just in case I loose it but would prefer to have more confidence in its reliability
    Has anyone else had similar experience ? and any idea what might be the cause?

  • Reporting Flag is not visible in the manage screen

    Hi BI Experts, Good morning.
    We load the inventory data daily in the night time which is delta load.
    5 days back, we got 0 records and the request is in red.Then i rerun the infopackage manually and got the total records in to the cube.
    From that day onwards its running successfully.
    Yesterday i deleted the bad request from infocube.
    But the Reporting flag is not visible.
    Today i didnot get the records.
    Please can anyone tell me the process.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Anjali

    Hi Nagesh,
    Still i am not getting reporting flag.
    I tried what did u say.
    And today i did not get the records. Infopackages didnot run. It shows in red.
    I tried to run it manually but it gives error.
    The error message is:
    Short text
        An exception occurred that was not caught.
    What happened?
        The exception 'CX_RSR_X_MESSAGE' was raised, but it was not caught anywhere
         along
        the call hierarchy.
        Since exceptions represent error situations and this error was not
        adequately responded to, the running ABAP program 'SAPLRRMS' has to be
        terminated.
    Please give me the reply.
    Thanks in advance

  • HFS+ formated USB Disk not visible under Windows 7

    Hello.
    I recently purchased an APE and hooked a 4TB HFS+ drive via USB on it. Unfortunately it's not visible under Windows7. Though if I use a Fat32 formatted drive i'm able to access it. I even have macdrive installed. The drive is working properly if connected to the PC or MAC manually.
    Please help

    Hello exalderan. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    FWIW. I currently have an external USB drive (NewerTech miniStack) connected to my 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn). I can access it from Windows 7 (Ultimate) from either a dedicated Windows PC or from a Parallels VM running Windows 7 without any issues. The 2 TB drive is formatted in HFS+.

  • Physical Disks in StorEdge 3320 not visible in CLI Manager

    Hello,
    After installing the CLI manager on Solaris 10 for x86 platforms, I was able to connect the server to the StorEdge array. However, I cannot see the 6 physical disks that are in the array. The LEDs on the physical disks are green, but there is just no communication between them and the CLI manager. Could this be a bad controller card? What else could it be?

  • Firewire disk not showing up in save window.

    Hey all,
    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard and all seems to have been well until today when I realised my firewire drives aren't showing up in the 'save as' window.  However, the drives are showing up in the scratch drive list in the preferences.  At the moment I'm saving to my native hard drive and then transferring the files manually which is not particularly efficient.  Is anyone else having this issue and if so have you hit upon a solution?
    Matt

    Oh!
    I've sorted out the issue now.  The solution may help others though.  In the 'save as' window I clicked on the drop down menu just below the file name entry field.  I selected the network name of my computer and the disks appeared in the list below.  I then dragged the disks over to the devices list on the left and there they now sit.
    You may be able to drag them from the desktop too but I didn't try that.  Either way, problem solved!
