Library in shared folder - users can see, but not change?

We have or music library saved to the shared folder so all of the users in the family can access the music. However, only the original user can make changes (change genre, mark don't include in shuffle, etc.). Is this by design, or should everyone be able to make changes to the music?

This still does not fix it... If you cannot R&W over the folders and the library, you cannot even open the library. I've been looking into the same issue, and have not been successful. I might try what I used for iPhoto and worked beautifully; I have not done so, because if I remember correctly, it was posted that this does not work:
sudo fsaclctl -p / -e
sudo chmod +a "<other user> allow delete,chown,list,search,add_file,\
addsubdirectory,delete_child,file_inherit,directoryinherit" <path to directory>

Can see but not connect to one shared library

On my list of shared libraries on my network in iTunes I can see all of the ones that are capable of sharing. However with one of them when I select it, it loads for a few seconds but then goes straight back to the main library with no error message. All of the other libraries work fine.
Please help.

I'm having this exact same problem. Can initially see a shared playlist/library, and it will even initiate playing, but a few seconds later the connection disappears. I've turned off my firewall and opened up TCP/UDP ports, but still have this problem.
I'm running iTunes 7.1.1.5 and Windows XP SP2.

Can see but not access shared library

I have a PC running Windows XPsp3 and the latest version of iTunes, and my husband is on a macbook using the latest OS and iTunes. We both have Home Sharing enabled and he can access my library, but I can not access his. I can see his shared library but when I click on it, it thinks for a while and kicks me back to my library. I checked to make sure we were both using the same account info and that we both had sharing enabled. I checked to make sure our respective firewalls where allowing iTunes through. We are using an AirPort for our router; I'm wired in and he is wireless. I've been looking in the community and can't see where anyone has successfully resolved this problem.
BTW, before I recently reformatted and rebuilt my PC, when I encountered this problem I would get an error stating I needed to check my firewall. Reformatting my PC did not correct the problem, only removed the error message.
Anyone have any other ideas?

Users can see, but can't open image files

We store all of our digital photos (jpg's) on an Xserve RAID attached to an Xserve.
Twice in the last 3 weeks I have started getting calls from staff members to tell me that they can see the files but can't open them.
The jpg files aren't recognized.
If I click on a file from my iMac I get the following message:
"Couldn't open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that preview doesn't recognize."
If I reboot the server. The problem goes away. The files aren't corrupt and people can access them again. I saw this three weeks and then again today, so it's not like it happens every day.
Even though I connect from a Mac, most of my users are Windows users connecting via Samba.
We are using RAID Admin: 1.5 and Firmware ver.: 1.5-1.5.xfb
Mac OSX Server is 10.4.1
Any ideas why this happens?

Does the same thing happen with files that are on the local drive? That would be the first thing I'd check.
Any reason you're running 10.4.1 server and not 10.4.3? There were tons of fixes in 10.4.2 and 10.4.3 around the file system... I'd recommend the update strongly.

Can see but not connect to other computers on my home network

New laptop running 8.1 replaces crashed one (also ran 8.1). After setup, can see the other computer on Home Network (uses Windows 7). That one can also "see" the new laptop. ( Both computers appear in the network folder). Neither
will connect to the other. Get "cannot access message, check name etc."
Both computers are in same Homegroup, tried all the tests mentioned in support . . .everything seems set properly. Ran through all the network and homegroup diagnostics fine. Tried connecting with both firewalls disabled.
Is there a solution I'm not aware of? Others seem to have similar if not identical problem.

Hi wrkeen,
Please share more details about this issue：
1. Provide the error messages for better analyzation.
2. What solution have you done to test the homegroup?
If we enable the network discovery, we will be able to find other computers or devices on the network.
Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
1. Run the network troubleshooter to exclude the network issues. For more information, please refer to the following article.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/using-the-network-troubleshooter-in-windows-7
2. Go through this path Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center\Advanced sharing settings and check if we correctly configure file sharing and other settings.

User can send but not receive emails

Hello!
So I've just set up a band new server from scratch and am having trouble getting the email service to work 100%.
My dns is all correct, forward and reverse. The output of a changeip -checkhostname command is perfect. My domain name and its public ip address both point to each other fine and my A, MX and CNAME records have all been set at the domain vendor to point to my particular server.
I've made one user in WGM and that user can send emails no problem. But when I try to send an email back (or reply to the original message), this is the error I receive in the bounce message:

Any thoughts on this?

Solved my own problem: what was needed was to add a "server" entry to the A-records list that pointed to the IP.
Sheesh! Haha.

Can see but not save/modify files on external drive

New Mac user. I have an external drive for all photos/movies that I've used wth a PC.
Bought the Mac. I can pull files from the drive but I can't access the drive to delete/modify existing files or save new files.
It's treats whole drive as "read only".
How can I modify stuff on the external drive and save new files to the external drive?
thanks.

You can't withdraw the question/thread only close it by marking it as solved.
NTFS was the "problem", right ?

Can see but not browse to Airport disk, also cannot print in Bonjour

I suspect this may be related to a firewall issue or perhaps the way my corporate PC is set up (logged into Domain with VPN to Internet. What else might cause:
Windows Exporer to hang and crash when I try to browse to Airport Disk which is clearly visible in WE
nability to print, Bonjour or otherwise tothe USB attached printer in Airport. Macs work just fine
Thanks in advance

After updating to ITunes 11.1.4 ITunes can see but not recognize my IPod and all my music was deleted from my IPod

I have not had any issues until I updated to the latest version. I have tried all the suggestions on the support web page and nothing has worked. I am hoping that this version of ITunes is the issue and that Apple will release a fixed version, Any suggestions?

Ok, here is the fix per Chad at Apple. Just did it and it worked.
Open the Control Panel
Uninstall *in this order*:
1. iTunes
2. Apple Mobile Device Driver
3. Apple App Updater
4. Bonjour
You may need to reboot after uninstalling Apple Mobile Device Driver, and ok if it still shows in the Control Panel.
Next, go to Apple.com, then download and install the most recent version of iTunes.

I am using version iPhoto'11. Since I installed this version I experience some difficulties. After importation of pictures I can see the pictures under Library/Pictures but not under Library/Events. However I can see the event and the number of pictures.

Hello,
I am using version iPhoto'11. Since I installed this version I experience some difficulties. After importation of pictures I can see the pictures under Library/Pictures but not under Library/Events. However I can see the event with the event title, the number of pictures and the pictures itselve as small thumbnails. BUt ounce I want to open the event to see the pictures in full screen the event title annouces 0 pictures and no pictures are visble anymore to mee. I have checked if the pictures are marked as hidden and this is not the case. What's going wrong. All the other events are visible in a normal way.
The albums with the same pictures into them are visible.
Thanks for your help,
Raf

Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select options #1, #2 and #6.

How can see my photos?when i press on photos folder,just can see only albums.but can't see pictures

iam using now i phone 4, 16 gb ..iam new in i phone. i took alot of pictures.but i cannot see any one in photo folder.i can see there just albums.but i cannot open it.if i want see all the pictures,i have to go to camera and want go to camera roll.how can i open in straight away in photo folder?

You need to read the iPhone User Guide to learn how to use your phone properly. I've included the link at the bottom of this reply.
Photos taken by your iPhone reside in your camera roll. From there, you need to import them onto your computer for safekeeping. You can arrange them into albums and THEN synch them back to your photo albums.
How to do all of this is covered very clearly in the User Guide

Unauthorized User can see the aggregated result?

Dear all,
I got a problem that, unauthorized user can see the aggregated result.
e.g. A user who is allowed to read data of Sales Office (0SALES_OFF) 0001 only. (It is done in the RSECADMIN already)
Now a cube contains Sales records of Sales office 0001 & 0002 :
Sales Office 0001 Sales Value 3000
Sales Office 0002 Sales Value 2000
When the user execute a query from the cube without any selection criteria, it give the aggregated Sales Value 5000.
But if the user try to drill down for each sales office, it can then give error, because the user are not suppose to see Sales Office 0002 records.
What I expect is an error at the very beginning when the user execute the query, saying the cube contains data that the user is not suppose to see, the user need to put in the correct Sales Office as criteria first.
Is there anyone can help on this issue?? I have no idea how can this happened?
Many Thanks!!!
Chris

Hi,
Now I understood your concern correctly. Unfortunately, I do not have prompt answer for you. So, User should be able to view the aggregated result, but not to irrelevant sales office. If you don't have condition on Aggregated Result, restricting to individual Sales Office can be done in RSECADMIN.
Let's wait for other's opinions.......

Hi, I have got three ipad minis which I would like to use in a business environment whereby the users can see and update a single calender. Is this possible? Would they have to be run form one account?

i have tried the following suggestion and fixed my problem..
i wish it works for you too..
"All you need to do is to open registry editor by going to
Start menu, Run, typing regedit and then Enter. After that, in the
registry editor, walk yourself through the tree in the left pane,
till you reach
My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32
And then on the right pane, right click and click on New,
select String value, enter "wavemapper" (without quots of course),
ENTER, type "msacm32.drv", ENTER.
Close the editor. No need to restart. Video on Google and
YouTube et al would work fine now."

You can look at the ipad under settings, general, about and see if it's 4.3.3.
Or when you connect the ipad to the computer with itunes, it'll tell you on the first tab if you need an update.
