Lacie MAX NAS no longer connected to Mavericks

I have had numerous issues with my LaCie Network Space Max 2 TB on OS X over the years but now I can't connect at all. The NAS is connected to my router via WiFi and was working fine. Just recently, it stopped allowing me to login to manage files. The drive still shows in my finder window under devices but when I click on it I get "Connection Failed". I even tried plugging in hardwire to the drive and same deal. I can still log into the web browser and even recently updated the drive (after this issue started) but I cannot access the drive's files. LaCie and Apple have been a nightmare ever since I started using them together. I used to work for Apple and was under the impression LaCie was one of the best Apple 3rd parties but this is just terrible. Any help out there?

Thanks Henry, just tried that.
When I try to access the Internet I get the page header, but the page itself no longer loads - eventually I'll get the "not connected " message.
If I run Network from system preferences it tells me I am connected and gives my IP address.
If I move to the "ethernet" column on Network Diagnostics the network status lights are green for built-in ethernet, network settings and ISP - but red for Internet and server. The message now states "your internet connection appears to be working perfectly"
It can't be the internet as here I am posting on my PC, so it must be the Mac, but I don't understand how I can be connected to my ISP, but not the Internet....

  • External hard drive is no longer connecting after Mavericks

    Hi!
    I have been using an eternal hardrive to back up with Time Machine with no problem until I upgraded to Mavericks....then everything went downhill. Now when I plug in my external hard drive it does not register or show at all. What is going on???
    So frustrated with Mavericks, so many other complaints and frustrations but for now really want to solve this simple issue.
    I have tried both USB ports and it just does not work.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,

    When you erased the disk did you select Mac OS Extended Journaled as the format option?

  • Have installed OSX Mavericks and Vodafone Mobile Broadband Modem no longer connects despite reloading its software. Now cannot reinstall OSX Mountain Lion

    Upgraded to OSX Mavericks. Vodafone Mobile Broadband Modem no longer connects. Tried again after reinstalling latest Vodafone Modem software update for Mac OSX, but no use.

    Could somebody give a feedback about the solution proposed by Bokir?
    I am experiencing exactly the same problem after upgrading to Mavericks with the Huawei E220 modem.
    The connection is established for a few seconds, but no data is transfered, and the connection is then closing automatically.
    I left the modem plugged in and the Vodafone software set to Automatic, and after numerous attempts and 10 to 15 minutes, it appeared that the connection was finally established.
    That is of course no way to work.
    After running the VMB uninstaller, there are still a lot of stuff in library cache & preference folder that are pertaining to VMB and not removed.
    It is also strange that after uninstalling and reinstalling the VMB software, I am not requested to enter my pin code to establish a connection.
    It is obvious that there must be some other VMB files (probably corrupted) somewhere in the system that are not removed by the uninstaller.
    I have another macbook pro running VMB without problem and I am really afraid to install Mavericks on this laptop because of this issue.
    Thanks again for any feedback.

  • Can no longer boot into Mavericks 10.9.5

    My problem is that I can no longer boot into Mavericks 10.9.5 on my mid-2012 Macbook Pro.  The problem arose suddenly without any known major changes to my software or hardware.  The booting process freezes with the apple visible and the circle below it spinning endlessly.  Every several seconds, the display very briefly gets brighter, then the circle starts spinning again and the process repeats itself.  It never gets to the user login screen.
    Other than keeping various apps up to date, I don't recall any recent major operating system or other major software updates, nor have I made any recent hardware changes.  I've searched a multitude of threads and and tried any number of fixes without success.  Here's what I've tried so far (and probably a few more that I can't remember): (1) Repaired the startup disk with both Recovery HD -> Disk Utility and single-user mode -> /sbin/fsck -fy; (2) Repaired the startup disk permissions with Recovery HD -> Disk Utility; (3) Reloaded the Mavericks 10.9.5 operating system twice; (4) deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow.plist; (5) reset PRAM and NVRAM; (6) booted with "D" pressed and ran the Apple hardware test, which ran for about 40 minutes and reported no problems; (7) tried booting from a bootable clone of Mavericks 10.9.5 on an external hard drive, which also failed at the same place with the apple showing and the circle below it spinning endlessly.  ***Oddly, I am able to boot from a bootable clone of Mountain Lion on an external hard drive.  It's Mavericks that won't boot.***
    Here is the part of the system log the repeats itself over and over and seems to correlate with the repeated failed attempts to complete the booting process.  Any help would be appreciated beyond words:

    Hi
    You got a prob I think, if you can boot a windows, MSconfig, startup options might restore the boot files.Only other thing is to try and either load a new windows and let it setup a boot file, or perhaps a win98 startup disk, and fdisk, then set active partiton, which will set an MBR.  But that would leave a load of work to do, I think I'd opt for an install of XP, and let it repair existing installation, and make a new boot file.
    Hope you don't need the info on disks.  If you do, I would install another HDD, load XP, then copy original Disk to save place.
    Good luck

  • After upgrade to 10.7.1 users can no longer connect to shares

    Ok , im not an admin to start off, but after upgrading the OSX lion server to 10.7.1 i can no longer connect to the sharepoints on my mac mini server.
    Through SMB or AFP .. i tried using the connect to server on one of my clients and when i attempt to log in , it shakes the login window as if my password were not accepted.
    Heres where it gets a little confusing to me, i have 2 mac mini servers both running OSX LION SERVER 10.7.1 .... The one that I CAN NOT LOG INTO is my OD Master... the second one is just used for file sharing...
    WHEN i attempt to login into the file share server (which is connected to the OD Master which is rejecting my user logins) i can connect JUST FINE and access the sharepoiints on that server...
    A couple more weird things... on the OD MASTER (again the server which is rejecting all user logins) I CAN login with my admin credentials and access the sharepoints... ??
    -- when i am locally logged into the OD MASTER server, if i add a new sharepoint from scratch and edit the ACL , NONE OF MY USERS SHOW UP nor any of my user groups... it only allows me to add the Administrator access to that share..
    Have i done something very wrong somehwere? this server that is having a problem is only used as a OD master and File share nothing else..
    I did not change any settings besides add a new mac mini server to the OD and performa the 10.7.1 upgrade.
    ANY HELP WOULD BE HUGE as i have spent a 12 hours trying to figure this out before i resort to a re install.

    I've only one hint to you, cause I've mot on Mac-Server.
    With 10.7 Apple have switched from Samba (maybe due to licence problems with GPL based stuff) to a own protocol called "XSMB"
    This had caused problems with some NAS systems too.
    Eventually someone have a glue to solve that, as several users have problems with SMB shares since that.

  • Can no longer connect to certain shares after upgrading to 10.8.4

    After upgrading to the latest version of Mountain Lion, I can no longer access certain shared volumes. I have one machine running 10.4.11 and I can connect to its hard drive. Another machine on my network runs 10.5.8, and I can now only connect to the built-in hard drive. There are also 2 Firewire drives connected to that (10.5.8) machine that I can no longer connect to.
    When I use "Connect to Server" and enter the AFP address of the 10.5.8 machine, I get a full list of "available" shares, but if I select one of the FireWire volumes, I just get a spinning "rosette" for several minutes and then a failure message. I also have an OS 9 machine that I can no longer connect to on the same network.
    I already read the "Connecting to Legacy Systems" notice and still no joy after following the instructions.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!
    Jon

    No NAS other than an Apple one includes native support for AFP. They all use an open source package called Netatalk that is junk. Many years ago Apple deprecated the old security modules that Netatalk uses.
    The easiest solution is to hack up Lion so that it will connect with the old security protocol. Do a search for "lion dhx2" or something like that. Another option is to update your NAS to a version of Netatalk that includes support for DHX2. That is easier said than done. Netatlk isn't as "open" as other open source packages.

  • Safari no longer connects to any website other than FaceBook

    2009 iMac: After loading updates for Safari (7.0.4), OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), and iTunes (11.2.2), Safari will no longer connect to any website other than FaceBook. Chrome fares no better.
    Thanks for your help!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Can no longer connect to Windows XP Home Network

    I recently upgraded to Mavericks and just noticed I can not longer connect to my Windows XP Home Network. Besides sharing files I also print through that network, but it's not just the printer that's afftected. In "Finder" I see the Home>Office Folder but I can't connect to it. I deleted the printer and tried to re-add it but I get a message saying that the server my not exist or is unavailable.
    It's been a long time since I set this all up so I don't even know where to look and/or begin.
    TIA

    There is a problem with connecting to a shared printer on Windows XP from Mavericks. But you should still be able to connect to a shared folder, although my testing was with Windows XP Pro, not Home. One thing you do have to ensure is that the Windows user account has a password. You cannot connect to a shared folder on WinXP if the Windows account has no password.

  • Since the new Mevericks update my Air can no longer connect to a shared Itunes lib on Macbook Pro

    Hi,
    I have two mac laptops at home. My pro and my air. I have it setup so that I stream all my media from my pro to my air.
    I updated my pro to the newest Mavericks version. Since that update I can no longer connect to my library on my pro via my air.
    Please note that this problem here is with the mac book pro! I updated my air last night and i could still stream.
    All I get is the usual "loading library" (on my air's itunes) but it never connects.
    Other than restarting the application (on both computers) and restarting (both computers) what else can I do?
    Are other people having the same problem??

    Hi Bryan,
    Thanks for your input.
    Unfortunately I cannot get any of the OS X browsers I have tried to get beyond the accepting the site's certificate. All just stall waiting on the Outlook Web Access site. Safari 3.1, Camino, Flock, Firefox (2.0.0.12 and 3 beta 4), Netscape (7.1 and 9), Microsoft's Internet Explorer (thinking that might be more integrated with its Outlook Web Access package).
    I have even deleted the certificates from my Keychain (for Safari) or within the other browsers' preferences.
    Last night I even re-applied the 10.4.11 combo updater and then checked for software updates to confirm my system was up to date, but again without success when attempting to reach the Outlook Web Access site.
    Thanks anyway.

  • I can no longer connect to the internet from any other device.

    Having successfully upgraded to OS X Mavericks from Snow Leopard I can now no longer connect to the internet from  any other device.  I have an iPhone 4S, a Galaxy Tab, and an internet radio, none of which can connect to the internet since the upgrade.  They connect to my BT Home Hub without a hitch, it’s just that they do not connect at all to any website.  All was fine before the update. 
    The upgrade was to my iMac and that’s fine, no connection or surfing issues.

  • "No longer connected to the Internet" until router restarted

    I've been running a G4 Quicksilver with OSX Tiger on a BT Internet Home Hub router for some time now, years in fact, with no trouble. I also run a Windows PC from the same router using Ethernet connection for both.
    Yesterday I disconnected the ethernet cable from the Mac to update a child's laptop and when I plugged it back in again I got the message "your computer is no longer connected to the Internet". I ran network diagnostics to find the router was apparently not working, but built-in ethernet was, and restarted the router as requested. The connection ran perfectly all evening but this morning on restart - same message. The PC is running perfectly, hence this message can be posted.
    I reloaded the BT software from the installation disc and got a good connection, but the first time the Mac went to sleep, I had lost it again. The connection seems to be lost everytime the Mac is restarted or goes to sleep, but if I manually reset the router I get a "connection successful" message. Last time I got the message I ran Network Diagnostics and was given a choice of locations: automatic or BTHomeHub. On BT all indicators were red; on automatic it is green as far as network settings and ISP, but red for Internet or Server. My net connection is broadband, 512k max and the PC connects and runs perfectly. I don't understand why the Mac has suddenly changed and why it won't connect.
    I've just changed the location to BTHomeHub and got green lights on all but Internet - even the server light is green, but it says internet (failed).
    I'm lost, can anyone help???

    Thanks Henry, just tried that.
    When I try to access the Internet I get the page header, but the page itself no longer loads - eventually I'll get the "not connected " message.
    If I run Network from system preferences it tells me I am connected and gives my IP address.
    If I move to the "ethernet" column on Network Diagnostics the network status lights are green for built-in ethernet, network settings and ISP - but red for Internet and server. The message now states "your internet connection appears to be working perfectly"
    It can't be the internet as here I am posting on my PC, so it must be the Mac, but I don't understand how I can be connected to my ISP, but not the Internet....

  • Presonus FP-10 no longer works after Mavericks update

    I updated my Mac Mini to Mavericks and now my Presonus FP-10 will not work. I know that Presonus has made a statement that FP-10 is no longer compatible with Maverick or Mountain Lion. I had it up and running in Mountain Lion. My question is can I reinstall Lion or Mountain Lion to fix this urgent problem. I am using my Mac Mini O SX 10.9 as of now.

    I have now managed to get the Canon LBP6300dn printer working on my network (i.e. I did not use USB at all).
    In case it helps others, here are the steps I performed.
    Infrastructure:
    My printer is connected by LAN cable to my Airport Extreme.
    The Airport Extreme has a DHCP reservation defined for the printer (e.g. fixed address of 10.1.2.3).
    I need A4 as the default paper size, so I installed the UK version of the driver (Mac_CAPT_V365_uk_EN.dmg). I do not know if the locale makes any difference.
    I orginally set-up the printer  when I used Mountain Lion.
    My Mavericks installation on my laptop was clean (i.e. the hard disk was reformatted first)
    Set-up:
    The printer was switched on and installation was done on my Mavericks laptop over WiFi.
    Double-click the .DMG file and follow the instructions.
    Open System Preferences | Printers & Scanners.
    Click + to add a new printer, the Add dialog should open.
    For me, nothing appeared under the Default tab.
    Click the IP tab.
    In the Address: field: I entered the fixed IP address of my printer (e.g. 10.1.2.3).
    The IP address should be automatically validated.
    The Protocol: Field was set to Line Printer Daemon - LPD.
    After a few seconds, the Use: field should display “Generic PostScript Printer”
    Click on the Use: field’s menu to display available options and then pick “Select Software …”
    In the Printer Software dialog, select “Canon LBP6300 CAPT (UK)” . Or the equivalent for your locale. Click Ok. Note: I could not get the “Canon LBP6300n CAPT (UK)” to work.
    For me, an error “Unable to verify the printer on your network appeared”, but I clicked Continue.
    I left the Paper Source Options set to none. (I do not have the 500 cassette.)
    I clicked Ok to finish the adding of the printer
    After this the printer was finally working for me, including duplex printing.
    Anyway, I hope this might help others that are struggling with Mavericks and the Canon LBP6300dn printer.

  • External display no longer works after Mavericks install

    I have a minidisplay port to DVI adapter that connects my Macbook Pro to my television through HDMI port (cable is HDMI to DVI).
    This has worked fine for over 2 years, but as soon as I upgraded my Leopard OS to Mavericks, it stopped working.
    A side topic is that my Android TV media centre also stopped working as it can no longer connect to my Macbook Pro (it used to work for the past few years).
    What am I doing wrong? How can I solve my problems? I have tried everything on the forums, but nothing works at all.
    Help, please, pretty please with sugar on top and a cherry!

    I'm not sure how installing an application would cause that to happen. Have you shut down (powered off) the iMac completely, and then restarted, since this problem occurred?
    Some display settings are stored in PRAM, so if you have not already, try resetting PRAM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    If that does not help, you can try disconnecting the iMac from power and reconnecting it, using the reset SMC (power management) procedure.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543
    When you reconnect it, initially connect the iMac to a wall outlet, by itself. Leave all peripherals disconnected, except for your USB keyboard/mouse. Make sure it is working properly, then connect only the external display.
    If it still does not work, as a test, start up with your Mac OS X installation disc. You are not installing anything, but note if the second display is displaying the background image or not when you are booted from a different system.

    Since upgrading to Lion USB devices no longer connect to my virtual machine in parallels despite my parallels settings. As a result all usb devices show as networked drives from the mac. Therefore cannor access encrypted part of drive. Any ideas???
