How to get NAS drive as a "device" not "shared" entry in Folder??

I have several NTFS mount points available on my network. I can connect to them just fine if I "connect to server" with the smb://networkaddress/mountpoint functionality.
The problem is the device shows up in the Folder under the "Shared" area, not the "Devices" area. As a result, I can't do a "Save As" in an application and 'find" that NAS point in order to save the file. I have to save to the local drive then copy to the NAS.
So how can I connect to the NAS point so it shows up as "disk drive?"
Second question -- is there a way to automate the connection so every time I boot my MBP it connects to and mounts the drive?
I'm on 10.5.3
Thanks

Yes, I have write access. I think the problem may be that Apple has altered AFP (for security fixes and problems with Time Capsule) and the software on other servers has not caught up. I understand from another thread that "Command K" (Connect to server) uses IPv4, whereas connecting to sharepoints via the Sidebar, where the server shows up under Shared, uses IPv6.
Whatever the reason, as of now SMB works through either route. As for AFP, I can connect to the server via Cmd K, select the sharepoints, and they will mount to the desktop. I can open them and read and write to them. In the Sidebar however the server shows as mounted under Shared - but as "Servername", NOT "Servername AFP". (In the Sidebar "Servername AFP" appears, but not as mounted. See IPv4 /IPv6 above.) When I try to unmount them - either from the desktop or the sidebar - they won't, the Finder freezes and will not restart, and I have to shut down with the power button. If I select "Servername AFP" in the Sidebar, the window changes, as it should, to say "Connecting As". But nothing happens - it will not even display the sharepoints.
Yes, I can drag the sharepoint icon from its open window to the sidebar under Devices, but this does not solve the mounting and unmounting problems, quite apart from the fact that a sharepoint that mounts to the desktop as a volume should show up automatically in the sidebar as well if you have that option selected in the Finder preferences.

How to load specific driver for specific device not having PnP-ID?

Hello,
as mentoined in a previous post I'm up to adapt an exisiting PCMCIA-based PC Card driver so that it can be used with a PCMCIA/USB adaptor (by using it's driver's IOCTLs), and already had
some success on it: My driver loads and I can read files (for example, in Windows Explorer) from the card as it did before in "PCMCIA version" (I intend to support both with the same driver, which seems
to work at the moment). As it did before, the driver currently creates a MTD (memory technology device). My main "problem" is how to load the driver.
The situation is a bit complicated, I try to give as much details as possible.
For better understanding
The PCMCIA/USB adaptor's driver usually has following device stack: PCMCIA/SUB adaptors driver -> USB mass storage device (USBSTOR.SYS) -> Diskdrive (DISK.SYS [->PARTMGR.SYS]). For more ease - to see if my driver works in general - I installed my driver
via INF using the PnP ID of the "USB mass storage device", with other words I "replaced" the USB mass storage driver with my own driver.
This is my problem
This means - and that is currently my problem - that may driver gets loaded regardless of what is attached to the PCMCIA/USB adaptor. Usually, when attached to PCMCIA, the PC card has a PnP ID the driver can be assigned to. In my case, I have no PnP ID for
the PC card, and the driver may stop because the attached device is not supported The driver will unload properly, but the device remains with error code (in device manager).
What I want to avoid
I already thought about filter drivers between USBSTOR and the PCMCIA/USB adaptor's driver (#1), or above the USB mass storage device (#2). If I'm correct, that means that I have to handle URB/CBW requests for case #1 or at least SCSI requests for case #2 -
but I'm currently not familiar with filter drivers, URB/CBW and/or SCSI. Porting the driver was quiete frustating until yet and I had to get familiar with a couple of technologies that belongs to the driver's functinaliy itselfs -
I hope you understand that I want to avoid getting familiar with more technologies than required.
I think there must be a way to check the device (PC card) at the PCMCIA/USB adaptor
before my driver will be loaded, as well as removing the deivce completely if the PC card was removed (so that it disappears in device manager). But I'm currently have no idea how to do that. Is it possible to
load my driver along the device/driver stack usually created by the PCMCIA/USB adaptor's driver?
Some answerers likes to refer to WDK documentation and samples. In such case - because of their complexity, it would be nice to get a hint about where to start.
Have much thanks in before for any suggestions!
Regards,
Willi K.

Today's memory cards (like CFC) manage their FTL (flash translation layer) in their firmware. Our PC card is quiete old technology and does not have such firmware, this is why Windows cannot recognize the file system (FAT). For example, a request to offset
0 may be somewhere else on our PC Card.
I followed your suggestion and used the HWID of device that appears "above" the USB mass storage device, and my driver seems to work as it did before - OK, made no difference.
But if my driver does not recognize the card (because it is not present or it is another PCMCIA device -> STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED or STATUS_NO_MEDIA in driver entry), and the device is shown with exclamation mark in device manager.
Two questions remain:
- How can I ensure that other drivers may attach if my driver does not support the device inserted in the adapter?
- How can I force a "re-check" of my driver if there was no card present when driver was loaded?? -> Note: A disk drive always appears in device manager - regardless if a device is attached to the apator or not

How to get the list of active devices in current wifi network?

Hi All,
I am going to a start a new Network based app. So please any one give me an idea on the below question.
How to get the list of active devices in current wifi network?

Nope I want the log-in user to retrieve its Group where he is belong. I have this following code
strUsername = Request.getParameter("username").toLowerCase().trim()+"@dev.test.com.ph";
strPassword = Request.getParameter("password").toLowerCase().trim();
Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, INITCTX);
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, MY_HOST);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_AUTHENTICATION, "simple");
env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,strUsername);
env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, strPassword);
// enable tracing
env.put("com.sun.naming.ldap.trace.ber", System.err);
// Create the initial context
DirContext initCtx = new InitialDirContext(env);
// Get the target context
DirContext targetCtx = (DirContext)initCtx.lookup("");
SearchControls constraints = new SearchControls();
constraints.setSearchScope(SearchControls.SUBTREE_SCOPE);
// Perform the search on the target context
NamingEnumeration enum = targetCtx.search("","(userPrincipalName="+strUsername+")",constraints);
javax.naming.directory.Attributes attrs;
NameClassPair item;
String[] attrIds = new String[]{"MemberOf"};
// For each answer found, get its "Groups" attribute
// If relative, resolve it relative to the target context
// If not relative, resolve it relative to the initial context
while (enum.hasMore()) {
item = (NameClassPair)enum.next();
Out.println(item);
attrs = targetCtx.getAttributes(item.getName(), attrIds);
Out.println(attrs + "<br>");
initCtx.close();
It returns all this string :
{memberof=memberOf: CN=CMCanadaRD,OU=Groups / Teams,DC=dev,DC=test,DC=com,DC=ph, CN=iMngrCanadaRW,OU=Groups / Teams,DC=dev,DC=test,DC=com,DC=ph, CN=Domain Users,CN=Users,DC=dev,DC=test,DC=com,DC=ph, CN=Backup Operators,CN=Builtin,DC=dev,DC=test,DC=com,DC=ph, CN=Administrators,CN=Builtin,DC=dev,DC=test,DC=com,DC=ph}
How can i retrieve the Group named CMCanadaRW and CMCanadaRD on the Attribute?
Thanks

I had purchased an audio book from itunes on my iPad and when I synced my iPad with my computer, my audiobook disappeared. I have already purchased this audiobook, so now I just need to know how to get it back because it is not on iPad anymore. I don't think the audiobook was backed up to icloud but I have the receipt to prove I purchased it. Is there anyway I can get it back?

"If I purchase an audio book in iTunes on my iPad why can't I listen to it on my Mac? "
You can. Why do you think you cannot?
If you purchased it on your ipad, then you would have to transfer it to your computer. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
You can then listen to it on your computer.

How to get master data records that do not have transaction data in a query

Hi,
How to get master data records that do not have transaction data in a query output. Can we create a query or any other way to get the master data records that do not have transaction data?

Hi,
Create a multiprovider which includes transactional data target and master data info object. Make sure that identification for this master data info object is ticked on both the provider.
Create report on this multiprovider , keep the master data info object in rows , and now you should able to see all the values which are there in master data info object irrespective of transaction happened or not .
Next you may create condition showing only zero keyfigure values , ie. master data without any transaction.
Hope that helps.

How to get Reference on files of my ADF Shared Library

Dear All,
Use case:
I have compiled one project into a shared ADF library. This project has a ViewController.
In it are some common css files that I would like to reuse.
Now, I have a new project and have linked to that ADF library using Resource Palette.
In my JSFF file, I tried to link to the CSS in my shared library
<af:resource type="css" source="/com/test/common.css"/>But I cant seem to get the styleclasses in that shared library.
I have checked at Firebug console and I notice that I am getting a 404 when I am requesting for the said file.
What should be the correct path for me to get a reference to the CSS Files?
Thanks

How can I stop my IOS 7 device from sharing my location with IOS 8 devices?

How can I stop my IOS 7 device from sharing my location with IOS 8 devices? My friend who upgraded their device to IOS 8 said that I'm automatically sharing my location via iMessage details. I don't want to upgrade to IOS 8 yet because I don't have space. Is there a way to disable sharing my location with IOS 8 devices by default? I don't want to turn all location services off because I frequently use Google Maps.

Actually that's not true. I have a device (iPhone) running ios 7. My friend has an iphone running ios 8. When she clicked into her imessage thread with me, clicks on details in the top right corner it will show her my GPS location. It's doing this automatically because I do not have ios 8 on my phone therefore I don't have the ability to "stop sharing my location". Apple is automatically sharing the location. If you are using an ios 8, apple automatically pulls in location data for anyone you are messaging not using ios 8. I haven't found a way around this unless you turn off all location services on your phone which is immensely disturbing.

How to backup NAS Drive to Time Machine

My iMac, early 2009 model has a 1TB HDD which is now full with a few GB to spare, but not enough for any kind of video edited etc.
So, I purchased a NAS drive to use as an external storage device, so I can move and free up disk space on the iMac..... An other reason why I got a NAS drive instead of a regular external drive was because the WD My Cloud let's me create my own Cloud storage and also stream audio, image and video files directly to my TV, eliminating the need for an Apple TV or to keep my iMac/iTunes turned on.
Anyways, my issue is, I need Time Machine to backup my NAS drive and I don't know how to do this. Because once, I delete the files off my iMac, TM will not be making any future backups of the files I've moved.
There has to be a solution, any script/software? Any commands I can enter into Terminal for TM to see and backup my NAS?
ONLY IF, it was easy as upgrading the iMac ram, to upgrade the Hard Drive, I would have upgraded the internal HDD instead.
Please help, urgent.
Thanks in advance.

My question now is, is it worth keeping the NAS My Cloud drive and backing up My Book to the NAS My Cloud drive instead of to Time Capsule ?
Or shall I just stick to backing up to TC ?
This is more an opinion question.. IMHO the WD MyCloud will not be as reliable as the TC.
Apple build stuff with lots of tricky bits and one of those tricky bits is when you try to use non-apple products they simply have more issues.. Apple do not support TM to a WD mycloud.. they support it to a TC.
If you want reliable backups.. use CCC to the MyCloud or the TC.. that is not a problem.
Or use Time Machine to the Time Capsule.
If I needed to recover a file, I would use the TM backup.
If I lost a disk, I would use the CCC backup to restore it.
They are different.. they have different strengths and for reliability with Mavericks in particular.. I would rate CCC as top of the class and TM as the dunce in the corner.
So IMHO for the $40 cost of CCC I would do both. It is not hard.. nor expensive.. and if your data is at all valuable to you.. the extra cost is fairly small. You already have all the hardware.

How to get the drive letter of a Volume using command prompt

Using windows command line tools i want to get the drive letter of a volume, by specifying its volume number.
For example i have a HDD with 2 volumes: Volume-0 and Volume-1
I want to set a Variable say 'Letter'=<Drive Letter> such as
SET Letter=<Command> <Volume Number>
Is there any command which can do this for me...
Thanks...

Hi,
You can use the diskpart tool to assign a drive letter to the drive by specifying the volume's number.
1.Open Command Prompt.
2.Type:diskpart
3.At the DISKPART prompt, type:list volume
Make note of the number of the simple volume whose drive letter you want to assign, change, or remove.
4.At the DISKPART prompt, type:select volume n
Select the volume, where n is the volume's number, whose drive letter you want to assign, change, or remove.
5.At the DISKPART prompt, type one of the following:assign letter=L
Where L is the drive letter you want to assign or change.
For more detailed information, you could refer to the article below:
Assign, change, or remove a drive letter
