"Look for libraries to share" does not appear in the Shared pane under preferences.  I'm trying to see my fiances shared library.  She can see mine. I have selected share entire library.  Help please!

Cannot see my fiance's library but she can see mine.  Checked all appropriate boxes to share entire library.  Help syays to check under Shared which does not even appear anywhere.  It also said to check the "Look for share libraries" under shared pane which also does not exit in that pane. I am Windows 7 and she is Macbook.  Thanks

I'm using an Airport Extreme, and I'm not aware of UPnP settings in the Airport Utility.
On the Mac, I set up a Parallels Vista instance in bridged mode and verified that I can see the other Vista PC share folders, so I know that the Vista PC has been set up correctly.
Additionally, as mentioned before, I switched DNS Servers several times, but settled on an alternative Rogers DNS to avoid their awful failed lookup ad page (64.71.255.202 if anyone needs it).
I also tried adding the Vista PC IP to my Mac hosts file, which oddly showed the Mac on the Vista side, but nothing on the Mac side.
I also goofed around in the smb.conf file with some settings, but alas, nada.
The only thing that might explain why the Airport Express network (Vista, XP) provided me with shares in the sidebar and not my own Airport Extreme network (just Vista) could be that it's a master browser issue. I saw a couple of posts about this.
If the Vista machine is the master browser, nothing will show in the sidebar, but if XP or a Mac is the master browser, then the sidebar will show shares. I don't have a way to verify this as I'm not sure how to force one machine to be a master browser over another. I'm suspicious if this will do anything as I've found other posts saying exactly the opposite scenario.
Is there anyone out there that has had a network, possibly with Airport Extreme, one Mac (Leopard), one Vista PC, and Vista share is showing in the Finder sidebar?

  • My ipod does not appear in the source pane

    I must have done a big mistake as I have got a windows computer at home but plugged my ipod on my mac computer at work. From that day my ipod got empty. I thought going home and plugging it bac in my laptop the problem would it be fixed, but hasn't worked. I have tried any step available from thesupport site. Install and unistall everything about 100 times. The message that keeps appearing when I plug my ipod nano on my computer is: "ITUNES NO PUEDE LEER EL CONTENIDO DEL "IPOD DE XXX". HAGA CLICK EN RESTAURAR PARA RESTAURAR LOS AJUSTES DE FÁBRICA DEL IPOD", which it means I should restore to the factory setting, but once I tried to do it, on one of the steps takes from granteed that my Ipod appears on the soure pane of ITUNES, which it does not ever happen. I have found my Ipod file on the windows system and followed all the steps on that issue, but there has not been any kind of result. I have tried the menu in my ipod to restore it from itself but does not work..well, I have tried anything available from the advices from apple(have spent more than 4 hours on it) but can't get my ITUNES to recognice anything. By the way, I have aslo uninstalled my IPOD and with the CDroom, tryied to installed the whole thing again,..but nothinggg. GOt I tunes version 7. Any advice will be very helpful as I cannot stand going to work on the bus for an hour without my music...and Cannot afford another IPOD at the mo..
    Thanks in advanced.

    I have a very similar problem but I have done the 5 Rs and more---multiple times--and my iPOD and iTunes are just stuck in an endless cycle of Restore and Restart but rather than showing up in the source panel so I can put my music back on, the icon appears and tells me to restore again. I did everything including checking my USB ports etc. in My Computer and my iPOD refuses to get out of this cycle when iTUNES does bother to recognize it. Any suggestions other than the 5 Rs---because they are doing absolutely nothing.

  • How can I find a list of installed add-ons in FF5? (the one I'm looking for is installed, but does not appear in Extensions, Appearance, or Plugins)

    I installed an add-on that would allow me to change the content of the context menu. It works like a charm and I want to make a donation to the person who developed it, but I can't remember its name and I don't know how to find a list of the add-ons that I have installed. I've checked the lists that appear when you go to the Add-ons Manager under Extensions, Appearance, and Plugins, but it isn't there. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    You're welcome. Could you mark the problem as solved, that along with the comment you already made helps other users with similar problems find aspects of Firefox and try things out for themselves, Thanks.

  • Add new tab button does not appear at the right of the previous tab

    Just upgraded to Firefox 4 and the plus sign (T) for a new tab does not appear on the right of the previous tab as it had in earlier versions. I thought it was there briefly after I upgraded but it's not there anymore. How do I get it back? I did download the extension "new tab at the end" but that didn't help....

    That button should be available by default. However, if you use tab related Add-ons it may not show up as expected. You can add it back by right clicking on the navigation bar, clicking Customize, then drag the New Tab icon to the right end of tab bar.
    If that doesn't work, please try starting Firefox in Safemode to see if add-ons are indeed interfering.

  • Macintosh HD does not appear in left Finder window under Devices

    When I open Finder, Macintosh HD does not appear in the left panel under Devices--only my external hard drive is listed. I am also using a third-party file management program called Forklift, and when I use that program to look at my files, Macintosh HD properly appear under Devices, along with my external hard drive.

    Under Finder Preferences, do you have both Hard Disks and External Hard disks checked on?

  • Common Services portal does not appear on the LMS 3.0 homepage

    Hi,
    I am encountering a problem on Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 wherein the Common Services portal does not appear on the homepage. This was after I tried to upgrade CW to LMS 3.2 but does not seem to work so I revert back to LMS 3.0. I even did a restore of the backup database but still no Common Services on the homepage.
    How do i resolve this?
    Appreaciate your help. Thanks in advance!

    If you're not seeing the Common Services application portlet on the Functional Portal View, then you need to open a TAC service request to get the steps to manually re-register all of the installed applications from the command line.

    Other weirdness to report: my neighbor upstairs appears to have a Linksys router network on channel 6. My AEBS is on channel 1 so there shouldn't be interference... but according to iStumbler sometimes the signal leaps to 64000 (keep in mind my own Airport never tops 60)! Is that potentially the problem?
    Might it be possible that your neighbor just acquired a 802.11n (pre-N) wireless router recently?
    802.11n effectively increases capacity by doubling the number of Wi-Fi radios and increasing the number of antennas used to push signals out of those radios. 802.11n splits a data frame into multiple pieces. It then transmits these pieces in parallel using multiple radios that are attached to multiple antennas. These antennas blast out signals from virtually the same vantage point – scattering the signals everywhere.
    You may find the following ZDNet article interesting: http://blogs.zdnet.com/Ou/?p=247
    Even if he did not, and you are on good terms, you might want to ask if he can temporarily turn off his wireless, or, at least, reduce the signal strength to see if that will help in your situation.

    Hi BRIAN.MURPHY.TX,
    Based on my research, it’s better to maintain separate certificates for SQL Server and RDS as different applications might be incompatible and require certain fields of the certificate. For more details, please review this similar
    thread.
    Besides, the issue is more related to Windows security, I would like to recommend you post the question in the Windows Server Security forum at
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=winserversecurity . It is appropriate and more experts will assist you about the certificate sharing issues and SSL certificate best/bad practices issues.

  • How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

    How to get a question in the course placed anywhere in the course and does not appear in the quiz result or total number of questions. Pretest would work except it can't go anywhere in the course (at least for me it can't)

    Use a normal question, and do not add the score to the total score. That will give you a correct score at the end. But the total number of questions, that system variable will still take into account all questions. You'll need a user variable, and calculate its value by subtracting 1 from the system variable cpQuizInfoTotalQuestionsPerProject. Same for the progress indicator if you want to show it?
    Customized Progress Indicator - Captivate blog
    If you want to allow Review, you'll have to tweak as well. You didn't specify the version, and all those questions I now mentioned.
    And my approach, since you talk about only one question: create a custom question, because you'll have total control then.

  • I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?

    I still use Aperture 2.1.4.  I need to export an image file with a CMYK profile.  Whereas a generic CMYK profile is listed in ColorSync Utility, it does not appear on the list of profiles in the edit portion of the export preset dialogue.  Help?  Is there some way to add the CMYK profile to the list of choices that are available in the export preset dialogue such that I can choose it?

    leonieDF
    Thanks for your response.  My profiles are located within color sync utility as you can see here:   
    These profiles do not respond to clicking and dragging.  Since they are all in one place, more or less, I'm reluctant to make further attempts to relocate them.  Accessing the CMYK profile is the first difficult experience I've encountered with this arrangement.  I have never needed the CMYK profile until recently, and that need has now past.  However, it remains a mystery to me as to why it does not appear with all the others on the menu of export choices in Aperture 2, or on the menu of profile assignment choices in the Preview application (where again all the other profiles are listed as choices).  I'm beginning to think my current set up will permit me to view an image that was created in CMYK space, but does not easily assign, or convert to that space.  I don't face these restrictions with all the others, so it remains a curious circumstance for me.  I anticipate upgrading my computer and software in the near future which might alleviate this issue altogether.  Again, many thanks for your attention to this matter.  The reach of this community is astounding.
