Lost local network computers in finder and unable to change workgroup

On my G5, iMac works fine, both OS X10.5.5. After a update from Mac, I think it was Safari, iTunes, and a Security Update, I rebooted the computer and now can no longer view local windows network computers.
I checked WINS in Network settings and my NetBIOS name is grayed out, in the workgroup box, it is empty, I click on the drop down and my workgroup name is there I select it but it is not saved. Didn't make a difference.
I was able to use Go in Finder, Connect to Server and put in "smb:// computer name or share" and connect no problem and the computer shows up in finder, but only the one I typed in.
If I click Go in Finder, Connect to Server, then choose Browse, it dumps me back to Finder Network view and of course none of the Windows shares or computers show except the one I put in with SMB://
I ran Disk Utility Repair Permissions, rebooted to no avail.
Anyone have an idea what went wrong and can point me in the right directions to get the Windows Computers back in Finder?
Thanks,
Bill...

Ok This is what I did in trying to fix my problem and it seem to work, although I have yet to turn the G5 off or reboot yet and was able to get Windows shares showing back up.
System Preferences, Network.- Location: First choose Duplicate Services of Automatic, then I renamed Automatic to my workgroup name ( although I don't think name is important).
Then chose the Advance button and under TCP/IP changed Configure IPv4 to Using DHCP with manual address. I put in a static address (192.168.1.200) that was out of the range that the router would give out (my router range for DHCP is 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.100).
Then clicked WINS and selected my workgroup name, closed the windows and saved... Worked right off the bat in finder!
Don't know the Why's or How Come's but it worked and that is all I needed! Maybe some one could explain?

just that that is one method, and lacks provision for working boot image and for an emergency - Lion gives a small minimal emergency boot environment but may lack all the utilities you need to use and run, even some drivers that your mac requires for add on PCIe.

Should I be able to see networked computers in Finder?

Forgive me if this is totally obvious.
Should I be able to click on Network in Finder and see networked PCs on my LAN? I can share and transfer files from a laptop to this iMac, but I don't have the laptop with me right now. I'm trying to see a different desktop PC right now. Under Network, then Servers, I only see iMac.local.
I don't know if this is a problem or if it's just how things work...

Hi,
Yes you should see them if they are Sharing and on the same Subnet.
If you know the IP of the other Laptop, try In finder, select Go menu>Connect to Servers..., then on the iMac, type in smb://ip.of.the.pc, like...
smb://10.0.1.5
smb://192.168.1.3

I downloaded 3.6.8 and found Win32.Cherche.us in module plugin-containers.exe in mozilla firefox directory. i now have many network computers to clean and a lot of work, check your files

I started installing 3.6.8 several network computers. When I started firefox, I got the message from spybot that Win32.Cherche.us was found in file plugin-container.exe in the mozilla firefox directory. This is a rootkit and I will probably to re install/clean at least 4 or 5 virtual/real machines. This will be a lot of work on a weekend when I just wanted to rest
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== I installed 3.6.9

Could an admin or mod please answer.
I have a serious question to ask that only they could answer.
Thank You

Vista Ultimate: Local Network Access Only (Wired and Wireless)

Alright, I am not very experienced working with Windows Vista, and I'm having serious trouble solving this problem. I've been searching for solutions for two days and not found anything that works.
The computer is a Compaq Presario A900 running Windows Vista Ultimate (Service Pack 2). My brother used the computer's wireless internet connection for four years without problems, but lost all internet access when he returned home a couple months ago. The
computer will connect to any network, but has the message "Unidentified Network - Access: Local Only".
The computer first had the problem trying to connect to the Internet through an iPhone's Wifi connection. It happened again on the wireless network at my home. I took the computer to work to test it with a wired connection and had the same result.
I originally thought this was only a wireless problem and completely uninstalled and reinstalled the Atheros wireless card drivers.
I have completely disabled the Windows Firewall and removed all Anti-Virus (Avira free was installed - Norton is not on the computer). I have tried Safe Mode with Networking, and it does not fix the problem.
I ran a Fix-It yesterday that was supposed to fix specific registry errors, but that did not solve the problem either.
I also found a solution on this website that involved enabling sharing. One user said it fixed the problem, but it did not solve it for me.
The only thing I am certain of is that this cannot be a problem with the router. All three places I have connected have various other computers connected constantly: The iPhone regularly connects a different Windows Vista-powered laptop, Windows XP Desktop,
and Windows 7 netbook to the Internet. My wireless router successully connects a Windows XP Desktop, Windows 7 laptop, and Macbook. Obviously, the wired connection at work successfully connects over a dozen computers.
I'm out of ideas on this one...thanks.

Hi,
I've been having a similar problem; am not able to connect via wifi at our new home, but am able to connect easily at an internet cafe. Obviously, I'd like the convenience of getting connected at home! :) Getting "unidentified networK"
and local only access. Also had the same problem with the yellow ethernet cable & LAN, but finally found a partial fix online somehow so am at home using the internet now. But it is still a PITA, because every time I step away to take
a break from the computer, it goes to "sleep" and loses the connection, so I have to do a restart to get the internet connection back. And it would be much nicer to get the Wifi problem fixed, so I can move around the house to a more comfy spot rather
than being shackled in the corner by the yellow cable! :D
I will attach a screenshot of the ipconfig as suggested above, but am not all that savvy, so would appreciate step-by-step instruction how to solve this problem. I've tried a lot of suggestions, but nothing has worked yet... hoping someone here can help. Thanks
in advance! :)
oops! edit to add: grrrr, it wouldn't let me include the screenshot unless I verify my account, which I have not figured out how to do yet... another hurdle!

Can't find computers or drives on local network

I cannot find any networked computers or harddrives on my local network. I can connect to the internet through my timecapsule, but I cannot access it or any of the other computers (all macs) in the house, either wirelessly or wired. They do not show up under "Network" in finder nor can I ping them.
The other computers successfully find and mount each other, the timecapsule, and my computer.
I recently put in new ram; could this be the culprit?
How do I fix this??
Thank you very much!

Unable to share files over the local network, OS X Lion

About two weeks ago, my coworker and I realized that we were no longer able to share files over the local network. We have not made any changes to our preference settings. We are able to access FileMaker Pro databases files located on another computer in our office via the network, but we are unable to access any other files by trying to login to the computer remotely. We also have internet access. I am able to login to each of our work computers form home, but not from the office. I'm am not sure what has changed, but it is important that we have the ability to share files at work. Can you give me directions on how to fix our problem. Thanks!

I had this problem when I first setup my Mac. One thing I know is that File Sharing in System Preferences doesn't necessarily need to be on, because iTunes does all of the networking itself.
I know that you've checked and checked again on the firewall, but what I did was turn the firewall on. In the list of ALLOW, there should be a line that is labeled iTunes Music Sharing. Check it. It was the magic link, and all of my iTunes libraries on the three computers in the house (two Windows, one my Mac) could "see" each other.
Turning on the firewall might seem strange, but it worked for me.
I hope this helps.

Connecting to local network via Airport?

Hi!
How to set up the MacBook to reach computers on a local network, wirelessly?
I have 4 computers on my local network. 3 macs, 1 pc.
Set up is: Zyxel Prestige 2602R and a SonicWall wireless firewall.
2 macs and the pc are connected to the router via cables.
The MacBook is running wireless.
Everything is fine connecting to the internet. But there is no conectivity
to and from the MacBook, unless I connect it via a cable.
What am I overlooking?
JanD

Check that you have sharing on all your computers set up. Also on your macbook you will need to set up sharing also. This is done under your system preferences window.
You can connect to your other network computers in finder. Click network in the left finder pane and if they are set to share correctly you should see them come up. Just connect to them and a connection should show up in the left finder pane.

My computer looks alone on the local network

Hello,
Since a few days, I can't see any computer in the "Shared" section of the Finder's side bar.
Digging into that problem, I noticed I can no more connect to any of the local network computers using their name (i.e.: afp://mycomputer.local) but can well using the IP address (i.e.: afp://192.18.1.10).
Access to outside world causes no problem.
Any idea on how to solve this is welcome !
Regards,
Lionel

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.
