I have set up a file share but cannot login with my account

Hi everyone. I set up a file share using the settings in OS 10.5, however when I go to login on Windows Vista using my specially created read only account (called: remote). I cannot get it.
I can only get in using these settings:
user name = xxx.xxx.x.xxx\myaccount
password = blah blah blah.
Yet when I apply the same settings changing 'myaccount' to 'remote', I cannot get in.
I'm not sure where I am going wrong, any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

No need to apologise, I'm the idiot who can't setup a home network. Although I'm sure Vista is at least to blame somehow.
I have sharing turned on and it says "Windows users can access your computer at smb://192.168.x.xxx."
If I click "options" it has a box which has an "on" tick box and my name. I have ticked it. When I ticked it, it asked for my admin password which I supplied.
On the firewall front I have allow all incoming connections.
I am trying to login to 'remote' whilst my Mac is still logged in as me, 'nathan' I have successfully logged in to the mac on the same settings using account: 'nathan' on Vista whilst still in 'nathan' on the mac.
I am trying to connect going into network on vista and selecting my mac, correct.
The connect works with 'nathan' if I go:
192.168.x.xxx\nathan
password
but for some reason the 'remote' user I have set up wont work on vista using the same format.
Thanks.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
FYI -- what you are attempting to do is use your BB, via BIS, to access your work email via their OWA environment. While that is supported, it can be tricky. I, honestly, could never get mine to configure via the device interface to BIS (Setup > Email Settings). Only by using a PC and going to my carriers BIS website could I get my OWA configured in BIS. You may need to do the same.
You can find your carriers BIS website via this portal:
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Where_can_I_log_into_my_BIS_account%3F
And you can find the specific detailed instructions for configuring OWA in this KB.
There are some limitations concerning OWA, but let's hold off on discussing those until you try out the above procedure.
Oh...btw...you will have to create credentials for your BIS account so that, when you log into it from a PC/browser, your carrier can identify and authenticate you. Typically, I find it easier to create the BIS credentials on the BB interface to BIS...then you can enter them in the BB interface, with the 'Remember Me' checkbox so that you only have to enter them one time on the BB itself. Then, when you use your carriers web interface to BIS, you will use those credentials to log in and conduct the OWA configuration.
Cheers!

Lync login error use self account without delete cache , but can login with others account anyway

Greetings
I deployed Lync Server 2010 for my customer. it's running well for about one year.
but there are some users cannot login on lync these days. we tested the issue, the following is the test details:
- only about 20% users cannot login on lync use themselves client computers.
- when I delete the lync cache files at C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator
folder, they can login on once. we must delete the folder next time when the user need login on.
- we can use other user account to login on at the above computer anyway, need not the delete the folder.
would you plese give me some advice about this case.
Thanks
Frank@Hiweb 冯立超@瀚博资讯

Is this Desktop virtualization scenario? or do does user have roaming profile? Please ensure
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator
is excluded from AV scan and test

Do you have MacKeeper installed? If so, you need to uninstall it. There is a known issue where MacKeeper disables all the sharing functions from the new iMovie.
Uninstall MacKeeper, then re-install iMovie.
Keep MacKeeper uninstalled.

Failure of ACL setting for CIFS share resource on Windows client logined with administrator account

Hi,
We accounter a puzzle of ACL setting for a CIFS share resource. In our application, we use the
administrator account to login a Windows 7 OS which is used as the CIFS client. We can access the share resource by "\\server_ip" on this CIFS client, but we can't add
a new ACE to the ACL of a CIFS share resource provided by a CIFS server.
Why dose this hanppen? Note that the CIFS server maybe a Windows OS or a self-developed CIFS server.
The operation details as followed:
1.Access the share resource by "\\server_ip", login the CIFS server by a valid account on the CIFS server.
2.On the Windows client, select the "Security" panel in the mouse-right-button properties dialog of a cifs share resource.
3.To add a new ACE for someone eg. user0, we input "user0" in the "Select Users ans Groups" dialog popped up.
4.Click OK, but the Windows client will not get the user information for user0 from the CIFS server.
WHY?
5.By wireshare network trace, we find the Windows client didn't send any SAMR requests to the CIFS server.
6.Restart the Windows client OS and login again with another account except administrator, carry out the above operations. We find that the Windows client can get the user information, opposite with the step 4 above.
WHY?
7.By wireshare network trace, we find that the Windows client has sent SAMR requests to the CIFS server to get user informations. But that is different from step 5, WHY?
If the Windows client OS is login with administrator account, is there any configuration on Windows client to decide whether request user information on CIFS server when setting ACL for CIFS share resource?
Expect your help.Thanks.
Best wishes.

Hi Peter!
I'm sorry to read that you are having issues with your Sync account.
Your best bet is to follow the steps described in this blogposts and open a bug:
https://philikon.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/how-to-file-a-good-sync-bug/
After that, if you don't want to user Sync in your computer, you can stop it with this simple steps:
* At the top of the Firefox window, click on the Firefox button (Tools menu in Windows XP) and then click Options.
* Once the options window opens, click on the Sync tab.
* At the bottom of the Sync tab click on '''Deactivate this Device''' link

Thank you for your interest. I use apple mail to access my two accounts -I guess they are 3rd party accounts. One is a gmail acount and the other is a bigpond account. I admit to a lack of a high level of literacy when it comes to the language around all of this. For example, I am aware that I have an iCloud email account as I managed to set it up, but don't really understand the purpose of it as the last thing I need is yet another email account to oversee.

My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired and i have forgotten the password that was attached to it! I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac?! HELP!

My apple id attached to my itunes account has expired
They don't expire. As far as anyone knows Apple IDs live on forever - if you forgot its password use https://iforgot.apple.com. Good luck with the answers to whatever security questions it asks.
... I have created a new apple id but cannot transfer it to my itunes which all my apple products connect up to on my mac with all my pictures etc on!?!
Right! That's the reason you do not create a new Apple ID.
As far as Apple is concerned a new Apple ID is a completely different user, with absolutely, positively no access to anything available to any other Apple ID.
Concentrate your efforts on resetting the password to your old Apple ID. It has not expired, and is the only way to use all your existing iTunes purchases, App Store purchases, computer authorizations... etc. Forget about the new Apple ID you just created.

I have paid for a rental movie but cannot download it. It keeps saying there is a download error retry and I have been for an hour. There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.How do I get it?

There is nothing wrong with my internet connection.
Is that a -50 error message, jolyn?
If so, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:
