Just bought and connected iomega home media network hard drive but can't see it on network - HELP!

so per the information from my other thread i bought an iomega home media network hard drive. i've attached it to the westell ultraline series 3 9100em wireless router i got when i signed up for fios. i installed the software that came with the hard drive but it's not showing up on the network. when i log in to the router management console it shows up as the first device under "network stats". what am i missing that's not letting the drive get recognized on my network? as always thanks in advance for any replies.

Hello jarmin2411
A factory reset from the web interface would correct this sort of issue.  However I suspect that using the pin-hole reset button should also be able to clear the issue as it seems to be a network configuration issue.  The network settings may have become corrupt during the update.   Using the device reset button

  • I've just bought a new iMac with 2 TB hard drive. Can I partition the startup drive?

    I've just bought a new iMac with 2 TB hard drive. Can I partition the startup drive?

    Glenfern wrote:
    The reason I'm considering partitioning is - I'm going to transfer about 50 GB of family photos & music to the iMac. Over time the photos & music library is going to grow. My idea was to point the iphoto & itunes library to the new partition so that the application programs (that will will reside in partition 1), will not get congested with photos & music over time & degrade performance. Also, I dabble a little bit with the music editing program LOGIC & Sound Track Pro, which creates lots of little music files in the process.
    In your case I would strongly recommend against partitioning, as dwb mentions a drive loaded with data on an
    O SX system doesn't equate to  performance loss. However partitioning does. If you were going to tell me you were partitioning to load different OS's on the computer then you would have a good reason to think about partitioning. My suggestion is do not partition.
    What I would also recommend is getting some high quality high speed external HD's to store your photo and music libraries on. This helps keept the 2GB drive available while maintaining performance. I have 3 external HD's attached to my iMac, two are backup drives (1 Time Machine & 1 Bootable Clone) the third drive is for storing my my music, photo & movie libraries on. If you go this route the 3 drives I'd recommend are:

    http://www.lacie.com/us/products/product.htm?id=10330
    Personally I use the Lacie's however OWC or G-Tech would also be welcome on my desk.
    Again if you want to take this path Apple has instructions for how to move the libraries to EHDs, if you want those links let me know.

  • WRT54G2 and Iomega Home Media Network HDD

    So I am on my second HDD with Iomega. I am thinking now that this is a router problem rather than a HDD problem. I have a 1TB Iomega home media network drive, eversince I bought my router and began using it I have been unable to use my HDD. It is hard wired to the router via RJ-45 cable and both units have been reset and powered up in about every order you can imagine. I have reset factory defaults on the router and made security changes to ensure there was nothing blocking that port. I am at wits end. I cannot connect to the HDD and the drive flashes yellow and blue indicating it cannot estabilsh or receive an IP address from the router. Can anone help me with this. The drive has already been replaced once after the same symptoms occurred previously. Any help is appreciated.

    Per the Iomega support site:
    How do I find the Home Media Network Hard Drive on my network?
    Install the Iomega Home Storage Manager software. Once the installation completes, the Iomega Home Storage Manager icon will appear in the system tray (Windows) or Menu Bar (Mac) and your computer will automatically be connected to the Home Media drive's shared folders.
    NOTE: If no DHCP server is found on your network the Home Media Drive will get the self-assigned IP address 169.254.55.82.
    NOTE: The Iomega Home Storage Manager will automatically scan your network and connect to available shared folders. If you receive a message from your operating system's firewall alerting you of network activity, click the unblock button.
    Mac Users: The Iomega Home Media drive's shared folders should mount and appear on the Mac Desktop.
    PC Users: The Iomega Home Media drive's shared folders will automatically be assigned a drive letter and will be available in the Network Drives section under My Computer.
    Also see the User Manual for the drive or the Iomega online support site.
    The network drive has a menu system to allow the user to configure the network settings for the drive.  Log into the drive per the User Manual directions and check the Network settings to ensure the Automatic (DHCP) is enabled. When this option is enabled it should pull an IP address from the router.
    One other option is to configure the IP setting to Manual in the Network page on the network drive and input an IP address (Static IP Address) outside of the IP addresses the router will hand out via its DHCP server. You would also have to fill out any additional settings for the Manual option. So for example if the router is configured for IP address of 192,16.1.1, and a starting DHCP IP address of xxx.xxx.xxx.100 and a Maximum Number of DHCP Users of 50 than set the network drive's IP address to 192.168.1.200, or any ending IP number between 151 and 254, or between 2 and 99. That way it won't conflict with the router's DHCP address assignments and it will always have the same IP address.

  • Can't access Iomega Home Media Network HD from my MacBook Air

    Hello,
    I recently bought a MacBook Air that is currently running OS X 10.8.4. This is my first MacBook.
    I have an Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive, but I can't connect to it. I downloaded their most recent software for Mac (the LSM client for Mac OS 10.6-10.8, version 1.4.3.9580), but keep getting a message saying "The version of the server you are trying to connect is not supported" when I try to access my files from my Mac.
    I tried to find the answers from Lenovo, who bought the Iomega, but their support seems very poor and I wasn't able to reach anyone about it since my warranty has expired.
    I was wondering if some one could please guide me to find a solution to this problem.
    Thank you so much in advance!

    Preferably, get rid of that junky device. If you don't want to do that, see below.

  • Iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive contents not appearing in iTunes

    I'm running iTunes 10.5.1 on my MacBook which is running OS X 10.6.8
    I've got an iomega Home Media Network Hard Drive ( http://tinyurl.com/l8jmaa ) NAS hooked up to my home intranet, and I use it as the master repository for all my music for iTunes, as I've got multiple computers in the house, and the device (with iTunes and DLNA activated) will show up in the "Shared" section of my iTunes source list, and I can view and play all my music from there.
    Sometime over the course of the last few iTunes updates, however, this functionality broke, and I'm not sure why.  The device shows up in the "Shared" section still, but when I click on it, iTunes shows a message on its screen that says "Loading "Iomega-0557fc" (yeah yeah, I didn't give my drive a spiffy name, I just stuck with the stock out-of-the-box name) and gives me the horixzontal cady-cane, and the little circle spinner spins away to the right of the device in the source list, but iTunes never actually completes the task of bringing up an index of the drive.
    The drive itself is fully functional.  All the settings are proper on it, I can move data on and off from the Finder, I can even drag-and-drop music files from the NAS in the Finder into iTunes and the files will add to playlists and play just fine (I've got "Copy files to iTunes Media Folder..." turned off, so I know they're playing from the NAS) so it's not like there's some kind of malfuction on the NAS itself.  I've also made sure I've got the latest firmware updates and such.
    I'm sure I'm not the only one with one of these drives, and I'm hoping someone else has encountered this issue and figured it out!  Any help is appreciated!

    Hi , I have similar problem..It was working initially and for some reason it stopped. I device shows up on the SHARED , however when I click it doesnt load the songs..however I am able to stream songs from Iomega NAS via other DLNA clients (ace player etc in ipad)...

  • Iomega Home media network drive & Time machine backups

    First timer guys, so go easy. :-)
    I have macbook pro. Upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion couple of days ago. I have Iomega Home media network drive NAS box which I had setup for Leopard and my backups via time machine were working perfectly. I could also mount the shares on the Iomega box on my macbook. Post upgrade to Lion, I can access the shares on my MAC (over smb) but backups not working anymore. Apparently Lion requires shares to be accessible over afp only. I have confirmed Iomega box is compatible with smb as well as afp shares and I even tried manually mounting those shares using command, still no luck.
    Command I'm trying to mount afp shares & the error -
    bash-3.2# mkdir -p /mnt/backups
    bash-3.2# mount_afp afp://username:[email protected]/backups /mnt/backups
    mount_afp: AFPMountURL returned error -5019, errno is -5019
    bash-3.2# echo $?
    101
    bash-3.2#
    Can't see any references to this error. I see few links that ask to carry out some clumsy steps to sort this out. That's not working either for me.
    On a sidenote, why mac doesn't have /etc/fstab? Any alternatives?
    Appreciate any kind of help here.
    Cheers.

    Hal

    Aha OK then, that should work fine.
    The only snag might be, if your missing the original thermal sensor from the original 24" Hard Drive.
    Then again, you should be able to use the one that came from the original 17" Hard Drive.

    Hello dhanse_k,
    For something like this, there really isn't much that I can help with here.
    I'm limited to giving advice and that isn't going to help if you have a verified IP that's not granting access to the UI.
    I recommend starting a support ticket here:
    https://lenovo-ap-en.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/18133/session/L3RpbWUvMTM2NjU5MDgxMS9zaWQvSEtSbjZqb2w%3D#phone
    It sounds like your NAS is having issues with Apache and starting a support ticket will enable an agent to assist you with that.

    i formatted my ext hard drive and changed it to mac os x extended(journaled). then i put in all my data back. after a while, i insert the hard drive but my macbook cannot read it. plz help

    SanandaDutta 
    tried on a different mac. The same problem exists.
    If that is the case, its extremely unlikely you have a bad USB cable on the seagate, rather as I mentioned earlier a bad SATA bridge card.
    If the Seagate 1TB USB external wont open on either Mac and youve verified same (try a diff. USB cable if you have one however this is nearly never the case),....then to get the data off that HD (unless it is dead which is also extremely unlikely),......then you would need to extract the HD from its case and insert same into either a HD dock or USB HD enclosure.
    8 out of 10  seemingly dead inopperable 1-3+ year old external HD are perfectly fine, rather the cheap 50 cent SATA bridge card fries and dies (alas)
    reply back if you need help in extracting same. 

  • I installed FF 4 beta and lost all bookmarks. Found a bookmark file dated today on hard drive but can't open it because it's a json file.

    Sorry, guys, I'm pretty lost. Spent the evening trying to redo a profile; found the profile on my hard drive but couldn't figure out how to change it back. I also read the FF help section quite a bit and '''tried''' to follow all directions but STILL can't do it.

    JSON is [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON JavaScript Object Notation] format.
    You have to use the Firefox Bookmarks Manager to restore the bookmarks from a JSON backup.

  • IOMEGA home media network hard drive security issue - admin password bypass

    Some time ago I analysed the http traffic between the above and firefox so that I could automate the restart process because I wanted to restart the drive about once a week overnight.  This I achieved by writing a simple python program and it seemed to work ok but I stopped doing it after a short while.  Many months later I have returned to this and found that the conversation has changed.  The redirection that used to occur has gone and I can now restart my drive without the need for a valid administrator password and I have done this both from a computer on my lan and also via an external  no-ip free dns domain name.  Note that any attempt to access the drive via a browser still requires a valid password.  My original drive was at firmware level 2.063 and this one (a replacement under warranty) is at 2.064.
    Has anyone come across this problem and has anyone any idea how to fix it?
    Happy to post my python code if required.

    Thank you for the reply.  I followed your advice.  I guess the upgrade worked ok because the device now says its at the right level, it removed the admin password (which I then re-instated) and a robots.txt file has appeared in the FTP folder.  However, a couple of things didn't work as advertised:
    1. When I tried to turn on remote access it just hung and I had to reboot the device.  It subsequently resolved itself after a couple of reboots and when I wasn't looking.
    2. When I tried to access the folders through a browser I was presented with a greyed-out 'public' user, for which I did not have a password, and this only resolved itself when I added a new user, which led to another problem ...
    3. I cleared the passwords on a couple of users because I wanted to change them.  No way could I get a prompt for a new password - followed the instructions in the manual - so I ended up deleting them and recreating them from scratch.
    Now then, has this fixed my original problem?  Not really.  The situation is that when remote access is enabled then my program in its current form doesn't work (but I would need to see if I could make it work).  If remote access is disabled and I get my router to port-forward, say 8000, as 80 to the iomega then my program still works fine and I can do a restart or shutdown without the admin password.
    Obviously now that I have this program worked out I can go on to do other admin tasks remotely.
    I'd appreciate any further ideas you might have.
