Linkstation NAS and auto reconnect

I am connecting to a Buffalo Linkstation using SAMBA and can mount the shares just fine (I keep my iTunes music on it for my Sonos sound system). I can get the shares to mount on startup, but they seem to auto-disconnect at some point and I have to manually reconnect to them through the Finder.
Is there anyway to get them to auto reconnect?

I'm dealing with the same thing. but mine got worse. (I have a linksys NSA for USB drives) I used to have to manually connect via the finder. A bummer, but at least that worked. now, in the finder nothing pops up under that workgroup. The printserver is supposed to show p also. the printserver works, just doesn't show up in finder)
OK, I know you can mount via the command line. I'm gonna dig around and get the answer. (ok, i know that iI can if Apple didn't mollest unix that bad)

IChat 4: Auto-reconnect, best to use AIM/GTalk or our OS X Server

Hey guys. I have two questions. Our internet has been extremely flaky and it makes it extremely difficult and frustrating to have video chats between our offices. Every time we have a connection error, the session terminates and we get the error message prompting us to send the report to Apple or ignore. Can I automatically suppress this option to send the report and close the window? Or, better yet, could I set up something (AppleScript?) to automatically recreate the video chat? I already have the AppleScript set up to auto accept the video chat invitation when someone tries to contact us, but I would love it if we could set up a script that auto-contacts other people in a video chat.
My second question, which is sort of related, at least to performance, has to deal with the best service to use for chatting. We currently use AIM for all of our inter-office text and video chatting needs. We also have an OS X Server, but it's co-located out of our office. Which would be the preferred network to use, if we're just contacting each other? I would have to think AIM because they probably have hundreds of servers, but they also have millions of users. We would have just a handful at a time using ours. Your thoughts on server preference, especially when video is a priority?
Thanks!

iChat does not have an Auto Reconnect item as such.
However if iChat is using an External Camera there is a setting in the iChat > Preferences > Video section that says Connect if Camera is On which will do just that.
iChat 4 does have a item for remembering open chats across logins/restarts of iChat.
This is set in the Messages section of the Preferences.
I am not sure if Chax includes and Auto Reconnect feature or not.
This may help
tell application "iChat"
if status is offline then
log in
end if
set originalStatus to the status message
end tell

Anyone help setup TC with Buffalo Linkstation NAS

I have a TIme Capsule working great with my iMac. I also have a Buffalo Linkstation Live 1Tb NAS.
There is a smartphone app that allows you to share a folder from your NAS over WiFi and 3G. I want to do this so I can share my music over my 3G when out and about, and play it (I am in UK and have unlimited 3G internet).
However in the easywebaccess setting it says I havent got UPnP. I'm unsure how to enale/set this in my TC. I goto advanced setting on my NAS and says I need to setup oorts etc, I dont know how to do this on a TC.
When trying advanced setup I get this error "UPnP Gateway not found and/or doesn't support port forwarding, use manual setup."
Anyone help please?
cheers

Let me suggest you swap your system or your thinking..
If you use a modem router to which the TC is connected tell me more.. The TC can be bridged and the other device become the router.. this makes things easier as you can then track ports that upnp opens.. and see what you need to do.
I am unsure where the app is loaded.. is it in the buffalo or the phone??
Mostly iphone is rigged to itunes, welded or melded would be better as it is almost impossible to escape itunes.. so when you coyly refer to smartphone.. I presume you are not actually talking about iphone but the that horrible company that had the gall to encroach on Apple's space.
To get music to work, it must use a standard method eg http, or ftp etc.. all you need to do is to tell me what method it uses if you don't have the actual ports it uses.
Apple buiild everything to operate in their own paid for realm of itunes.. icloud etc. When you try to bypass that.. you need to get the apple router out of the way.
(It might also be much easier to use an SD-Card or some other memory type if you can plug those in).

Using a Buffalo Linkstation NAS drive on the Airport Extreme 802.11n

I used the Buffalo Linkstation NAS drive on the previous Airport Extreme. I just upgraded to the new Airport Extreme and cannot get it to work. Buffalo support, after a two hour wait and and a 40 minute conversation, decided that it wouldn't work. If it worked on the older Airport Express, I think it should work on this one.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get this NAS drive hooked up to the Router?
Thanks,
Tim

According to their website, the NewerTech miniStack should work too.
It has the advantage of having a built in USB hub to attach other devices(i.e.a printer.)

Can I charge my I Pad Gen1 with my charger from my I Phone 3? I bought it used , I have not received it yet, need to know because I have the regular charger and auto.

Hi I bought an I Pad Gen1, used, with no accessories, will my I Phone 3 charger, wall and auto work with it or do I need to buy another? Have not received it yet( ebay).Please advise. Thank you.

Your iPhone charger is 5W, whereas the iPad 1 charger is 10W. The iPhone charger will work, but the charge time will be more than double. If you buy a new charger, get the iPad 4 charger which is 12W. It will charge faster than the 10W charger.
FYI
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Why don't you use several layers with appropriate alpha properties, and move these layers according to the mouse events?

Restart -- Magic Mouse does not auto-reconnect

After I updated OS from 10.6.4 to 10.6.5 with the combo updater, upon restart my Magic Mouse no longer auto-reconnect via Bluetooth. I even applied the combo updater for the second time. But, every time I restart my Mac, I have to use a USB mouse to reconnect the Magic Mouse back to the Mac.
How can I bring the auto-reconnect back? This is driving me crazy.

I believe that I have solved the issue with the following procedure.
[0] Let's suppose that, after a restart, the Magic Mouse did not auto-connect.
[1] Use a USB mouse to open *System Preferences > Bluetooth*.
[2] In the left-side window, select the Magic Mouse.
[3] At the bottom of this left-side window, pull down the menu and select *Update Device Services*.
It may take a moment or two for the update to occur.
[4] In the left-side window, the Magic Mouse should now appear as Connected.
[5] Restart the Mac and see if the Magic Mouse auto-connects now.

ITunes doesn't detect the files on my Linkstation NAS driver after crash

I had iTunes set up with the music folder on my Linkstation NAS drive. Every thing worked fine.Then a week ago my laptop crashed and I had to re-install Windows XP home and all that goes with it.
After installing iTunes I set up the location of the music folder to be on the Linkstation (using Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General). However, iTunes dosent "see" my music files on the Linkstation anymore.
The Linkstation is accessible to my computer and if I double click on music file from the Linkstation iTunes will play it and "see" that particular song but not the rest.
Is there any way of making iTunes scan the Linkstation so it can "see" the music files on it

For future reference, after some tricking around and a lot of finger crossing I managed to fix the problem. And here's how:
(1) I deleted the iTunes folder that was in My Music folder and started iTunes.By starting iTunes it creates anew iTumes folder with new blank .itl and.xml library files. I did that to start with a completely new iTunes .xml and .itl file.
(2) I double checked that the iTunes Music folder was set to the music folder on my NAS drive (using Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General).
(3) I also made sure that the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" was NOT selected ( Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General)
(4) I then opened the Music folder on my NAS drive and selected all. I then dragged and dropped the entire contents (5773items 42.9GB) on to the iTunes window.
(5) It took about 30mins to transfer the details and get the art work from the net. Note: it didn't transfer the music, only the details of the location of the music.
AND finally
(6) I backed up my new iTunes .itl and .xml library files and made a note to never forget to back up my iTunes .itl and .xml library files!
Phew.
And thanks to camoracer for the input.

SAP ISU Auto Reconnection on payment receipt

Hi Friends,
We need to Automate the process of Auto reconnection on payment received.
i.e When payment received from customer through FPCJ tcode
system will look for the disconnection status and do as follows
            If disconnection Status is 20(Disconnection Started)
               then change Disconnection status to 99( Completed)
1. How can we change this staus from 20 to 99 ?
2. What function fodule to be used for doing this status change.
3. What are the parameters we need to pass to function module for doing this activities.
Thanks
SK

Hi,
It can be done in following steps:
1. Use function module ISU_S_DISCDOC_PROVIDE to populate your AUTO parameter by passing disconnection document.
2. Update following parameters:
AUTO-CONTR-USE-OKCODE    = 'X'.
AUTO-CONTR-OKCODE = 'DARKCOMPL'.
3. Call function module ISU_S_DISCDOC_CHANGE.
This will complete disconnection document.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Avinash

How can i make my java app auto reconnect to Oracle.

Scenario:
when i am working with my java app if suddenly Oracle server connection unplugged. Then i got some problems regarding database.
When they replugged the connection, i need to restart my app again. Then it works fine.
Question:
When the database is replugged or restarted, then how can i reconnect to the DB automatically with out restart my app. Please letme know is there any auto reconnect process is there for Oracle.

If you want your application to reconnect, you would need to add logic that catches the exception that gets thrown when the connection is lost and tries to reconnect.

After ejecting my drive it auto reconnects

Hi,
I have had this problem with Snow Leopard and Lion.
When I connect my cellphone (HTC WM6.5) everything works fine but when I eject the device it auto-reconnects before I get the chance to pull the cable, giving me a faulty removal error.
Ok it's not a major issue but I'm just wondering why.
Anyone some ideas besides it's Bill Gates to blame?

You can check by selecting the iPod Touch from under devices. This will bring you to the iPod's Summary tab. On this screen, check to see if the Sync over Wi-Fi option is enabled.
How exactly are you ejecting the device?

SR520 Auto Reconnect VPN Remote Connection

Hi,
I am new to the SR520 router, and I have gotten the vpn server and remote to work. We have 3 of these routers, one at our corporate site, and one at each of our remote sites. The VPN's work good, but I would like them to auto-reconnect because we have some voice traffic that needs to pass over them, and the staff is not very capable of using the connection tool. Is this possible? Is there a time out on them that I can remove?
I have only used the Cisco Configuration Assistant to configure them, and when I used the command line, the vpn's wouldn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.

Addis and I connected with Andy Hickman who share the following that could work for this.
To keep the tunnel up you can use the auto connect feature of EZVPN. This is pretty straight forward, just do the following:
Starting from a standard configuration built by CCA1.9 for remote access, use the following to allow the remote router to connect automatically to the UC500 VPN server.
On the UC500, add the following configuration via CLI:
crypto isakmp client configuration group EZVPN_GROUP_1
save-password
On the remote device (870 or SR520), add the following configuration via CLI:
crypto ipsec client ezvpn EZVPN_REMOTE_CONNECTION_1
username password
It is also strongly recommended that password encryption is configured on the remote device:
password encryption aes
key config-key password-encrypt

VPN Auto Reconnect

Hello, I'm using VPN(PPTP) to connect to my office but sometimes the connection is not stable and I got a lot of disconnection. Is there a way to auto reconnect to the VPN Server?

Seems like you should be able to Script it, but I wonder if this Widget might help, seems to have a reconnect feature for PPP, so maybe more...

Auto reconnect after sleep, depends on brightness

Found this deep in 'weak wi-fi' thread and as it is not explicitly related to weakness of wi-fi signal decided to post it here. If you experiences auto-reconnect problem after waking up an Ipad and brightness was set to minimum try to move brightness slider a little bit to the right and try.
In my configuration dependency was 100%.

actually all credits should go to the original author (batgzam) here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2391395&tstart=30

E72 & VoIP Auto-Reconnect

I have successfully setup my E72 for SIP calls and it works very well for the most part.
There is one problem however that means it is very annoying to use.
The problem is that whenever I move out of a WiFi area and therefore get disconnected from the SIP server, the phone doesn't automatically reconnect to the SIP server when I get back in range of a WiFI area.
At the moment I therefore have to restart the phone every time I return to a WiFi enabled area to force the phone to reconnect the SIP server. The problem is not with WIFI - this reconnects fine when back in range automaitcally, it is just the SIP server that doesn't auto-reconnect.
Is there any way to force the phone to reconnect to SIP after disconnection without rebooting it every time please?
PS I have also tried setting SIP to work over 3G. This works fine but I then get the same problem when I leave a 3G signal area!
Thanks

paulbula, I noticed the same problem on my e72. Yes, I can confirm e72 does not reconnect on wifi.
You also write that you have the same problem on 3G i.e. your e72 does not reconnect to sip server automatically. Well, my e72 does reconnect but the problem is that it needs too much time to reconnect which is very anoying and makes normal nokia sip calling via 3G impossible while walking, driving or when calling in bad network coverage. When I use nokia sip on my nokia n95 8GB I do not have this annoying 3G reconnect problem so this is a e72 problem which needs to be fixed by nokia!
I describe this problem more in another nokia thread - google for "e72 3x sip hangs".
