I can not see my Seagate Extreme driver attached to the Airport from XP

I have a Seagate drive connected to the Airport USB port. I can see the drive from the Airport Utility but I can't even see it in XP.
I have tried mapping a drive \\10.0.1.1\Seagate Backup+ Desk 0342 (and lots of variations)
and I have tried \\10.0.1.1 from the run window.
Any ideas?

What model airport with what firmware??
Seagate Backup+ Desk 0342
This is not a valid network name. Please change the share name of the seagate disk to something simple.. like seagate.
\\10.0.1.1 from the run window.
Do you have airport utility for windows installed.. this will make life much easier.
Are you using wireless?? Do you have internet via the AE?
In windows explorer type the address as you did in run.. if it doesn't connect are you sure you have the IP correct?
Please ping it from the command window.
If it responds to pings but you still cannot open it.. Airport utility can open the AE, then the firewall is set .. turn off all the firewalls.
What format do you have on the disk? Can you see the drive and access it from a Mac??

I can not find my seagate hard drive that contain my time machine back ups how do i do that?

my airport extreme can not locate my seagate hard drive with all my back ups how do i fix this i need to restore some settings?

As Bob says, that's problematical.
If you were backing-up to that drive while it was directly-connected to your Mac, and now want to move it to your Airport, there's an extra problem. See the blue box in #E2 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
If you had previously been backing-up to the drive over your network, the backups may be corrupted (that happens rather often, and is the reason it's not recommended). If so, you may be able to repair them, per #A5 in the same article.
Or, you may need to reset the Airport. See Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule FAQ.

I am running Windows 7. I have 250 photos from a trip that I want to load to the iPad v 6.1.3.1 and show as slide show (in named order). I can not see any recent remarks regarding how to keep them from being loaded in date order.

By default the photos will be sorted by the date modified.

Edit (touch) them in the order you want them to be shown.

I can not see my external hard drive that is hooked to my airport extreme

I have hooked my iOmega 1tb hard drive to my airport extreme but can not see it on my macbook pro. need help to set this up

This is unsupported by Apple. You must configure Airport Utility to turn enable File Sharing of the drive in Sharing preferences and in the AEBS configuration. Then you have to "mount" the drive on your Desktop by selecting Connect To Server from the Finder's Go menu.

Make a hard drive attached to the Airport Extreme work with Time Capsule?

I have an external hard drive attached to my airport extreme that shows up on my desktop as if it was attached locally, but time machine recognizes it as the wrong format. In the Get Info screen, the drive's format appears to be 'Appleshare', when it is actually Mac OS Extended (Journaled). How can I make it appear as Mac OS extended again?

There is nothing wrong. The drive will appear as Appleshare since the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) is providing file sharing services. That should not be a problem for Time Machine use.

I have the new iPad and am looking at this product as a external hard drive (Can I pictures /videos or any other file wirelessly to the conected hard drive attached to the airport ????

CAn I write files to the hard drive conected to the airport extreme?

It is technically possible, but not out of the box - and limited.
How-to:
Once you have setup the USB-Drive on the Aiport Extreme and configured sharing you need an app on the iPhone/iPad. I have successfully used "GoodReader". However there might be others/better.
(In Goodreader the Airport Extreme should show up on the right hand bottom as AFP if your iPad and Airport Extreme are on the same WLAN.)
The limit however is:
- Works ONLY with files IN the Goodreader app (NO iPhotos, iBooks, ...)
- can only MOVE files/folders to/from the harddisk or delete them (can automatically sync, which might be nice)
- can NOT open files ON the harddisk - needs to download to iPad first
- can NOT create folders on the harddisk either
- nor can you move them around on the harddisk, it's always download/upload to the iPad first
Unfortunately I haven't found anything better. From memory:
Samsungs Goflex Satellite and Kensingtons Wi...something (could be wifi, not sure now) can only "stream" stuff to the iPad - and they too need an(other) app for that!
However if somebody knows anything better - I'd be eager to know, :-)

Upgraded to Lion and now can not see my external raid drive

I had a raid array set up in snow lepord using the OS X raid controler on my iMac. After upgrading to Lion, the drive is not reconized and there is no raid control panel (that I can find) in Lion. Anyone have a solution that will prevent me from losing all my data? Or can I go back to SL? I installed from the app store. No warning or errors. This is not a boot disk, just a data storage. Of course my time machine backup is on it too!
Thanks,
Tom

Upgraded and found my USB drive fine but the drives on my SATA card were gone. Found the drivers for the SATA card in the Incompatible folder.
Seems LION is fussy about some things. I have a MacPro with a VANTEC eSATA 2 port UGT-ST450CB card that isn't being recognized (It's not that old of a card either).
Hopefully the techs are reading this and going to have a fix.

Aperture can not see folders on Hard Drive

Hi Guys, i have a problem that i cant seem to find an answer to.
I have a mac pro with an SSD and 3 x internal drives. when i try to import files in to aperture i can see all the drives in the import dialog, and i can see all the folder contained therein, except for one of the drives. i can see the drive but no folders. If i use Lightroom i can see all the drives and all the folders contained in them. I have rebuilt the library i have even created a new library, but still no luck. Can anyone help.
Thanks in advance

Then I have no idea, sorry.
Does Aperture at least see an image file, if you copy an image to the toplevel of that drive?
Or if you sign into your Mac from a different user account? That will exclude problems caused by conflicting preferences files or import presets.

Can not See All of my Music Library on the play list

I accidently moved my music library (My documents/My music/my itunes...)
When I moved it back, iTunes does not see all the song (over 2000). It only see the purchased music. I can use the Add to Library function (In the File menu) and add each song, song by song and I have added a few dozen songs back to the play list. So all the music is there, in the directory, Just can not get iTunes to recogize them.
ANY suggestions to adding the whole library back at once.
Thanks

Do you at least have the little ! (exclamation point) next to the "missing" songs?
I just had the same thing happen to me, but mine occurred simply by upgrading to the latest version of iTunes... in the process it "lost" about half of my music.
I simply unchecked "Keep iTunes Music folder organized" under prefrences/advanced tab.. hit "OK", then went back in and re-checked it, hit OK and iTunes began "organizing" my library and miraculously iTunes found all of the missing music.
There are some decent articles about moving your iTunes library on the support site. They don't always work as advertised, but you're pretty much stuck with My Documents/My Music/iTunes on Windows.
You may be able to reverse things by following those instructions as well.

I can not see my waves and i cant refresh the over view

why can i not see my waves it happend out of no where and right now im stuck it came back for a seconed when i refreshed my over views but it wont let me afgain

In Logic's Preferences/Audio/Devices..
Make sure "Recording Delay" is set to zero.
If it's not set to zero why was it changed?

When ever i type into a search bar or box of any kind now it turns blue, and with a few websites that makes it so i can not see what i'm typing, what is the problem?

Like i stated i'm having a problem with every time i type into a search bar or box of any kind including log ins and such the box turns blue, and in many cases makes it so i can not read what i am typing. Tried same website on IE and they worked fine so i assume it's firefox, is there anything i can do about it

For me, the google search bar turns blue once I've typed in a search term, but then want to click on it again to change or add something. The entire bar turns blue. I can still type, but it's hidden. Then when I click Search, it does bring up my search results and now the terms I've written are showing in the search bar, with no blue.
The only way to get out of it when the blue is there, is to reload the page.

VERY slow data transfer to my hard drive attached to the Airport Extreme

Hi
Ive got a Macbook Pro and Mac Pro. In order to access large files from both I got a 2TB drive connected to my Airport Extreme and it shows up fine in both Macs under SHARED.
When I copy files from and to that harddrive from my Macbook Pro its impressively fast. Seems as fast as a USB stick.
However when I try to do the same with my Mac Pro its extremely slow. A 1GB file takes about 15 minutes.
Are there any settings that I might have overlooked on the Mac Pro?
Thanks
Jorg

This won't be of any help for you , but I happen to have the exact same problem. My AEBs is linked to a LaCie external HD, my wireless network include a macmini aluminum, a Macbook Air, a MacBook Pro, a MacPro Dual-COre Intel 2.66 GHz. . Everything works fine expect for the MacPro which is painfully slow to get data to and from. The MacPro Airport Card is of the Airport Extreme type (0x14E4, 0x87), like my other macs…
I use WPA2 with a n protocol to connect to the base station.
Still at a loss about this issue, wonder how to solve it…

I download all pictures and videos that I had in the windows pc in the new hdd. I am trying to see and watch those files on my iPad . I am thinking that since the files are jpeg and mpeg the iPad should read it.
Am I wrong?
Yes, you are wrong.
You need to add the files to iTunes on your computer, then sync the iPad with iTunes.

Windows Can Not See iPod As Removable Drive

This may have been discussed before, but when I attach my iPod to Windows through USB interface it shows up in My Computer for a few seconds, then disappears. Is there a way to stop this? I would like to be able to access my iPod drive without having to use iTunes alone.
