ISync "Can't connect to sync server" error
Hi all,
I had been using iSync with my Nokia N73 for a few months with no problems but now when I try to open iSync I get the following error message -
"SyncServices: Can't connect to the sync server: NSInvalidReceivePortException: connection went invalid while waiting for a reply ((null))"
I can't even get into the iSync menu to reset sync history or make any settings changes. I have tried reloading the program using Pacifist but get the same error. I am using iSync version 3.0 and Leopard 10.5.2.
The phone connects fine as a storage device and to transfer photos so the problem is not with the phone. Can anyone help?
Thanks
What worked for me was, when you click on iSync from the Finder menu, go ahead and actually right click it instead of opening it. A menu opens and select duplicate iSync. It does just that. I then launched the iSync copy and it worked.

I can´t set the control panel iCloud. PC writes this: you can not connect because the server error occurred. What´s matters?
Whenever I log into icloud.com
Using what version of which browser?
iCloud.com requires Safari 6 or later, Firefox 22 or later, or Google Chrome 28 or later. Have you tried all of those?
If you have, have you tried clearing your browser cache and cookies?
For the first tine since 1989 I'm thinking about buying a PC.
You'd have exactly the same problems on an 8 year old PC too. It's a bit unreasonable to expect such an old Mac to continue to be compatible as software is constantly updated.
Saying that, I'm still able to access iCloud.com successfully in Safari v5.0.6 on a PowerPC Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.8, so the problem you're having is likely to be a browser issue, not something inherently wrong with the computer.
Since all this crap started, Mail won't download my Mac.com or me.com email.
The iCloud.com website is totally unconnected to Mail's ability to download email via IMAP. Have you checked the mail server settings are correctly setup and up-to-date? -
Safari can't connect to the server, but firefox can
i have a few websites (mainly google sites) that don't show with safari but they do with firefox
i'm getting a "Safari can't connect to the server" error
to take DNS out of the picture i am looking up the ip address for the server and use the ip instead of the domain name so
http://74.125.19.103/images?client=safari&rls=en-us&q=test&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&um= 1&sa=N&tab=wi
works in firefox but not in safari
any ideas are more than welcome.
thanks,
tomHello Tom:
No I meant restart the computer. OS X rebuilds preference files as needed, but I am not sure what it does if you do not restart.
You could also reset Safari (that will also delete your cookies).
Just for the heck of it I would also run permission repair and also run repair disk from your software install DVD (those will probably not fix anything, but it does not take much time either).

Error: Can't connect to auth server at /var/run/dovecot/auth-master: No such file or directory
error showing up, there is no auth-master file in /var/run/dovecot
this has just happnened over night
any ideas how to re-install dovecot
google search goes on about linux but barely any info about max osx serverauth-master is created when you start the mail service. Deleted if you stop the mail service. If that is not happening, you may have to re-install mail. Dovecot is the IMAP/POP part of the mail service. I am not sure what happens if you disable IMAP. I am guessing it is not there. But that is the extent of any tips I can offer. I suppose you could reinstall, but that seems a bit extreme to me.

Dear Fellas:
I received "database error #2002 can not connect local mysql server to socket through '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock'(2)" on mac os x 10.9.2.
mysql info:
ps -ef | grep mysql
0 66 1 0 11:06AM ?? 0:00.04 /bin/sh /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql

501 952 947 0 3:52PM ttys000 0:00.00 grep mysql
Please help!!Fascinated and guessing:
Something related to sock(2) because that's not part of your copied info. I'm thinking you've doubled up on sockets and the second socket doesn't exist, meaning you should be connecting to the first socket "mysqld.sock" whether automatic or not.
I've only used GUI tools on purpose, so does this mean you've already got MySQL running and you tried to launch it again manually? Perhaps you already have one instance of a db and you're trying to launch a second instance, and the two can't coexist with a single user local db?
Assuming this is all local, I'd shut down the db service and restart it, out of hand. I've seen similar messages when I set the db to start up on boot, and it didn't finish shutting down when I tried to restart it manually. Usually the GUI won't let me turn it on because it reports it's already running, but in that case it hadn't finished performing what the GUI was reporting.
Just speculating. -
Can't connect to a server? Error message
Hi, I have what I believe to be a strange problem. My internet service seems to be fine except I can't connect to any pages related to my internet service provider. I have no problems connecting to any other site page. When i try to connect to my providers home page or webmail service, I get an error:
can't open page because can't connect to the server www.9online.fr
How is it possible that this is the only page that does not work, and, it's my provider? Called them, they say there is no problem on their end, and that they can connect on a mac. Is it possible to block only one page? Was it something I might have done? And, is there a fix.
Many thanks,
MI ran into a problem with my provider's personal web space. Basically, all I can see now is HTML code instead of the graphics I loaded over a year ago. I tried it from a PC on my LAN and it works fine. I can only assume that a OS X update did me in.
Are you by any chance using Verizon? That's where my problem lies. -
Good afternoon. For over a week I can't get email on MY DASH. Can't see mail in my Gmail Viewer. Get a POP3 error ... can't connect to POP server. Thought it may be a Gmail interface issue so tried to get Hotmail and then Earthlink email in the Chumby email app. Both give same message POP3 Error , can't connect to pop3 server. I have done multiplr hard restarts / power off / "restore to normal operation" procedures. I have searched the discussions and community and can find no mention of POP server issues. Please help .... advise. I'm a disabled, but still working, senior citizen without a fancy, internet, cell phone and my Dash's ability to display my email is very important to me. I have the Dash at my bedside and My Dash allows me to see a message from a client before I would otherwise rise. Kind regards, Martin

I was following this adobe article (
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/php_macintosh.html)
to set up PHP and MySQL and connect a MySQL database to dreamweaver
in Mac OS 10.4.8 and I kept getting:
"Can't connect to MySQL server through socket
'/var/mysql/mysql.sock' ERROR#: 2002".
After a lot of searching I came across
this
article which said that there was an error in the PHP and MySQL
connection or something.
Anyway all I had to do was type (in a TERMINAL window):
$ sudo mkdir /var/mysql
$ sudo ln -s /tmp/mysql.sock /var/mysql/mysql.sock
and that fixed the problem, otherwise the adobe article
worked very well.

You need to copy everything from the old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer, to the new one. -

We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server. The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option. If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem. One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
the same document library! The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure. She can read the older document, but not the new one.
It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error. We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
created profile does not experience the error for these people. Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears. When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear. We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy. We are rebooting between
logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
2005 SP4. SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries. We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries. We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files. It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes. One person experiencing
the errors is a Site Collection Admin. That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file. They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
file gave them an error. In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
We've tried lots of things including:
Deleting IE cache
Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
Running IE without add-ons
Upgrading and Downgrading IE
Uninstalling and re-installing IE
Reinstalling our SSL certs
Repairing Office
Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool
Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
Toggling the location of checked out files
Adding the site in the trusted sites list
Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
Making sure the WebClient service is started
Rebooting the machine (lol :)
This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing. There aren't
"check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next. Thanks!

PS I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes. It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error. I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done. I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster. Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
to get back to work. Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore. The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error. I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error. Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem.
I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
So the process went as follows:
Reboot and log into the machine as another user
Delete the profile and associated registry key
Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring. That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
before which didn't fix the issue.
So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
One way to do this was to:
Reboot and log in as another user
Rename the c:\users profile folder
Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
We've tried this on a couple machines and it works. I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it.
