Hiding items under "Shared"

One of the features of MacOS X 10.5 I don't like - as a systems administrator - is that Leopard shows every Mac & PC on the network under the Shared sidebar item.
It's a nice and easy way to see what server you can connect to and - if username & password are stored in keychain - it automatically authenticates when you click on a machine.
However, when there are 80+ machines listed it is not so easy to see those servers and it invites people to go snooping where they shouldn't.
All I want is for users to see valid AFP servers so is there a way to configure a Mac running Leopard (or 10.3.x or 10.4.x) to hide itself from this list.
Yes, I have turned off AppleTalk, but even if I turn off Remote Management (which I don't wish to) the machine name still appears.
Is this compulsory behaviour or is there a way to turn off Bonjour broadcast?

The purpose of editing your LaunchDaemon files would be to stop that machine from advertising to others. So, if I were to modify the ssh.plist and remove the "<string>ssh</string>" and "<string>sftp-ssh</string>" strings from:
<dict>
<key>Listeners</key>
<dict>
<key>Bonjour</key>
<string>ssh</string>
<string>sftp-ssh</string>
<array/>
<key>SockServiceName</key>
<string>ssh</string>
</dict>
</dict>
(please note that this ^ may be inconsistent with the real file as mine has been edited for ages, I put the strings back how I remembered it)
on computer Macbook-A and then restart the edited service, computer iMac-B running Bonjour Browser (http://www.tildesoft.com/Programs.html#BonjourBrowser) would be unable to see that Macbook-A had ssh and sftp enabled.
If you want your computer to completely not use Bonjour, which will break things, then "sudo service com.apple.mDNSResponder stop" would stop the computer from broadcasting and looking for bonjour altogether.
I hope this is more helpful, but if not, let me know.
Also, I just realized that I for got to say this, but you must restart a service after editing it for changes to take effect. So either disabling and re-enabling the service, or a complete restart would work.

Strange Items Under Shared Devices In Finder Side Bar

I have file sharing on for both my lap top and imac. Each shows up under Shared in the finder side bar. And I am able to connect to either one if I click on them. However two other devices show up as well. These two devices do not exist. When I use "Get Info" for them it indicates they are PC servers. I don't have any such thing. One of the items actually has a hyphenated version of my base station name. If I click on that one it says "connection failed". If I click on the other one it says "connected as guest" but nothing shows up in the window.
Is there anyway to delete these items/devices or at least keep them from showing up? And why are they showing at all?

I appreciate you taking the time to look. My 3 macs are now displaying only other Leopard computers. The strange ones have disappeared. One strange listing did look like my airport express base station. I have a 2nd express airport which servers to play my itunes. I, also, have two PCs on a Linksys wireless network and a wireless printer on my airport network.
Have no idea why the strange additions have disappeared. In an attempt to get them to disappear, I did shut down & restart each computer (Macs & PCs), unplugged and replugged both express airports, turned off then on the printer, and unplugged and replugged the linksys wireless router connected to my DSL modem. My goal was to isolate the equipment causing the strange listings. No luck. Could only modify the strange listing by totally taking down the wireless network at the DSL modem. Then, after returning from working at a client's; everything looked normal. ?????

Hiding Items in Shared Libraries

Does anyone know if there is a way to hide items such as layouts and themes that are a part of the shared libraries? We are using DVT and don't want these items to show up to end users if they are not included in our project.

Maybe something interesting...
When looking at article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982697/en-us
I saw that Outlook 2013 by default caches everything and that's what I wanted. I tested however adding this regkey to see what happened and after that the email shows up in the mailboxes... Somehow the mail from shared mailboxes doesn't want to be
cached...
Does anyone know what this could be? I want everything to be cached, also the shared mailboxes but somehow this doesn't work and it does when using Outlook 2010....

Help with deletion of two items in my Finder found under 'Shared'

I would like suggestion on how to delete two items in the Finder. They are listed under 'Shared'
I have to iMac OSX Yosemite. Can you help?

They do not have access to your computer. They are broadcasting sharing services to your network, and your computer is detecting them and showing them to you in the sidebar. This is your computer accessing them, and not the other way around. The first is your Epson printer on your network, which has network printing capabilities that it is broadcasting. The other name is too generic to figure out, but is likely a similar networked device, and can be your router, a scanner, printer, or any other such device.
Configuring the systems to prevent this would be a matter of accessing their setups according to their manufacturers' directions (either by way of a utility program, or a Web page that you log into), and then seeing if there are various network services on them that you can disable to prevent the broadcasting of these services on your network. Unfortunately this is not always possible to do, at least without disabling wanted features (like being able to print via the network instead of using a USB cable), so in general your best bet is to simply ignore these items, or hide them if you do not want to see them.

Since I upgraded to Yosemite I see "iMac" followed by a long number under "Shared" in the navigatie column of Finder. Every day a new item is added with the same number, but followed by (1), (2) etc. My iMac has gotten very slooooow.

Since I upgrade my iMac to Yosemite I see "iMac" followed by a long number under "Shared" in the navigatie column of the Finder. Every day a new item is added with the same name and number, but followed by (1), (2) etc.
I use Time Machine.

I suffered with numbers next to my unit's name in Shared Devices, Finder Pane.
What I did was turned off my Time Capsule and whilst it was off I renamed my Macbook Pro in System Preferences / Shared.
I turned on the Time Capsule and thus far, 12 hours later the change has stuck.
There are many people suffering this bug, it's to do with ghosting on your network... Where your current machine see's itself as a ghost, hence you get a numbered mac...???

Network devices not showing up under "shared" in finder bar

Ok so i have a network that consists of a maxtor nas device, 2 win xp pc's, 1 win7 pc, d-link 524 router, and my macbook pro. I would like to be able to transfer files between my mac and the devices and use the printer attached to my maxtor. My issue is that none of the computers show up under the "shared" section of finder or under network. I use to have this issue with leopard but it resolved itself. Now under snow leopard for a couple months and i have yet to get it work. I can access my mac and other pcs from a pc. Anyone know how to get my network to show up on my mac?

Your problem is very common under Snow. At first my shares did not show up under shared in finder windows. I, then, of course, used "Connect to Server" to connect to the shares--both Mac and PC. I found that the more I kept the shares active the more likely they were show up under shared. Then, I discovered that if I kept the computers from sleeping during the period of needed access they would tend to stay in shared without nearly so much keeping the connections active.
If you do not like the above work around, then there are two other possibilities. You can elect to show mounted items on your desktop. Do that and connect to each share. Then, go > users > unlock > + login options > try dragging the mounted shares to the login item window. If successful, then the shares should be available at login.
Another approach is to mount and connect as indicated above. Then, making an alias to the share should at least make things faster.

In the lefthand sidebar of Finder, under 'Shared', I encounter in addition my TC, another computer, identified by a long name starting with 'hp'. I don't have another computer. What could this be? And how to get rid of it?

In the Finder sidebar, under 'Shared', I encounter my TC, as well as another item with a long name starting with 'hp'. 'Get info' shows it to be a 'PC'. However, I don't have a PC. It cannot be my printer (HP), since that has anoter name.
I can not access the item, which has me a 'guest'.
What could this item be? And how to get rid of it?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
DB

It's almost certainly your hp printer and is showing the WiFi adapter MAC address after the HP.
To verify, look at the printer configuration page via Bonjour in Safari. The settings tab shows the Mac address in the bottom left hand corner for my model of HP printer.
I'm sorry but I can't explain why that would show up in the finder.

A stranger is showing up under "Shared" in my network

A stranger is showing up under "Shared" in my network. "Frank's Macbook Pro." I don't know anyone named Frank and my internet connection (comcast) is secured. I looked under "preferences/sharing" and didn't find a way to "Frank's Macbook Pro" from showing up. Advice? I'm a newbie. Please explain simply. Amy

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the request of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

"origina item for shared XP folder cant be found"

Shared Windows XP folder shows up in iMac's finder under Shared but wont open because "the operation cant be completed because the original item for 'Shared XP folder' cant be found".

The Samsung Galaxy S should be supported, but there was a buggy update of the Market app a while ago that filtered it out incorrectly. You might still have that version of Market on your phone.
If you can't find Firefox in the Market, you can download the Firefox "APK" package directly from http://bit.ly/fxmobilebeta using your phone's browser instead. (Note: If you have an AT&T phone, you'll have to search for instructions on how to "sideload" the app, since AT&T disables the option to install non-Market apps.)

HT1549 Unknown PC Server in Finder under SHARED

I see a PC Server - Name: dhcp-9-72-7-33 - in my Finder under SHARED. I have no PC in my network. I'm trying to remove it. Any idea what this can be?
How can I remove it?

(I posted this on a different thread with the same problem ---"Re: Unknown Server appearing in Sidebar")
on my MacBook Pro in 10.5.2 I am having the same problem -- seeing a bogus 'pc server' BRN_8111C (for security reasons I am not including the real number not really 8111, but similar) on my finder window side bar in the Sharing section - info says it is 'pc server'
now my iMac with 10.4 can see in the network section of the finder side bar and also shows the same item - and another MAC0017f2...... which Applecare has helped be determine is my ethernet card identity serial number .... now when I shut off the MacBook Pro which is wi-fi to a Belkin g wi-fi router connected to my office lan, the image of the MacBook Pro goes away almost instantly. And if I restart the iMac the bogus images are not there -- about 1 to 2 seconds after I open the MacBook Pro , its image is seen in the Network on the iMac and then... amazingly, 3 to 6 seconds later the 2 bogus images - MAC0017.... and the BRN_8111C images, simultaneously! So undoubtedly the MAC0017.. image is some reflection of my computers ethernet card and the other image must be coming out of my MacBook Pro as well... what and why I don't know but it is not at all possible to be a rogue computer popping on my network always simultaneously with my own image. Anyone have a clue what is going on?

Can I have an iTunes Library on an external HD, and have it appear under 'Shared' so I can use two library's at once?

Hey guys, here's a weird one - I have a large library on my macbook for my DJ music. Now I want to convert all my old albums to AIFF for listening purposes, and not DJing, so I don't want to cram them all into the lappy HD.
I have a NAS, which shows up as a 'Shared' Library. Can I create a library on an external Thunderbolt portable HD and have it do the same? Or will that only work on Network HD's.
I know the trick to hold Option and select your library at startup for multiple librarys, however I want to use them both at once.
Any ideas?
Cheers!

Thanks for the reply.
Basically, I want to plug in an external HD, and have it appear under 'Shared' Libraries, just like what happens when I'm connected to my NAS Server. If this is possible, of course.
See pic below.

PC server not showing up in Finder under shared

Hi
I installed Leopard on the 26th and my home windows PC is not showing up under shared and its not showing up in the network folder under mshome like it did in tiger. ive checked the PC and file sharing is enabled in the firewall and i even installed bonjour for windows but no luck.
the only way i can do it is "connect to server" (command-k) in the finer and use SMB smb://IP/shared name but it shows up under shared with an apple display icon and the PCs IP address. i was under the impression that PC servers automagically appear in the finder under shared with its shared name and a PC icon with the "blue screen of death". how do i get it to do this?
thanks

Hi,
One of the posters in this forum said that you had to do the change of workgroup in a Location profile that's not active. Then, change to that inactive Location profile for the thing to work.
Here's what I did on mine. I created a copy of the current working Location profile. Using the copy, I went to the WINS section and changed the workgroup to whatever my workgroup name was (make sure you press ENTER too for the workgroup name to stick). Then, I switched to the copy.

Albertus

ITunes no longer shows 'Podcasts' item under iPhone device section.

Stats:
iPhone 4 (32GB)
iOS version 4.3.3
iTunes for Windows 7 (64-bit) Version 10.3.1.55
I have iTunes set to manually manage my music and podcasts. Previously I had done this by clicking on the "Podcasts" item under the iPhone device section. Here I would delete podcasts I had previously listened to and drag new podcasts from the "podcasts" item under the Library section. As of today, when I connect my iPhone to my computer, it no longer lists a "podcasts" item under my iPhone in the Devices section.
Now I can't fine a place to delete old podcasts. I also do NOT want to use iTunes sync function for podcasts. Anyone else having this issue?
-Mike

Just found out. You select the podcast page on your iPhone 4. You drag your finger, from right to left, over the screen, just like you do to delete e-mails. The delete option will present itself. Touch the delete button and confirm. The podcast will be deleted.

Are you using the Office for Mac 2011 version, as you need to do? The Office for Mac 2004 is Not at all compatible with Mountain Lion, and the 2008 version has been noted to have some problems running with ML.
Hope this helps
