Mac app can't connect to a windows network drive

loadMovie("\\\\corpflash01\\WebContent\\swf\\jkLowerRight.swf",
portfolio_mc);
or this
loadMovie("//corpflash01/WebContent/swf/jkLowerRight.swf",
portfolio_mc);
works correctly on any window's machine inside my company's
network but only when I export to a windows exe.
When I export to a mac app, and run it on a mac, I can't
locate these swfs on the network.
Is there something special I have to do to get a mac to be
able to read swfs off a network drive?
Thanks!

*HELLO I WILL USE BOLD BELOW TO MAKE MY COMMENTS*
OK you will have to some simple things.
1. Find a third party time Time Server that you can use both on your Mac and Windows 7. I say this because of both modern sharing systems use kerberos. If you don't want to do that (or don't know how) just make sure both the you Mac and the Windows 7 machine are set to get their Time Clock updates automatically from an internet Time sever.
*BOTH COMPUTERS ARE ON THE AUTOMATICALLY INTERNET SERVER*
2. Read the article File Sharing: Win 7 and Snow Leopard: Introduction.
*READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE AND DID EVERY SINGLE STEP AND WHEN I INPUT THE IP ADRESS I CLICK CONNECT AND IT DOES NOT CONNECT, SAME DIALOG BOX SAYING. EVERYONE ELSE IN MY OFFICE IS USING WINDOS AND CAN CONNECT WITH NO PROBLEM*
3. If you want to use the Finder toolbar Network pane automatically then read the Apple discussion Snow Leopard 10.6.4 not showing Windows 7 Machines on Finder's Shared.
*I DID FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS LISTED HERE WITH THE SAME RESULT. I CANT CONNECT.*
With this information you shouldn't have trouble sharing files with a Windows 7 machine.

Some of my Mac apps can´t connect to the internet, while Firefox can

All of a sudden, Safari, ITunes, Software Update, can´t connect to the internet. It happens in my office and in my house. Have not checked other networks. Firefox wors fine, as does Mail (for now). What can be the problem?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in 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(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Third-Party apps can't connect to public wifi networks.

When I connect my iPhone to my university's Wi-Fi connection, Apple Apps (Safari, Mail, iTunes, App Store...) all function normally. But when it comes to third-party apps I can't get them to connect to the internet. So is there a workaround to this? Maybe get iPhone to treat apps as an "Apple App" so the proxy server gives it access to the connection (The server requires a username and password verification to connect). This happens with other public wi-fi connections. I dunno if I'm giving all the necessary info. so if anything is unclear, I can explain further...
Thanks

You don't give any examples of the apps that are not working.
Some public WiFi networks will only have certain network ports open, like those for web and mail. If an app uses an unusual network port then it may not work on the public WiFi network.

Macbook/mac mini can ethernet connected[crossover] with another PC-windows?

macbook / mac mini can ethernet connected crossover with another PC - windows like Sony VAIO laptop VGN-A297XP CEZ ? If yes can share all services like pc-pc connection ? IF Ethernet speed is 100/1000 for this laptop what is connection speed mac-pc ?

If you temporarily connect the Mac Mini server to the Time Capsule (TC) by Ethernet, can it gain Internet access now? Is the Mac Mini in the same room, different room/floor from the TC?

I use the FTP on the Go Pro app to do just this. I don't know what kind of servers I connect to though but I've not had any problems connecting.
I connect and select a file. I update the file, then tap save. The file is uploaded back to the server and the original version is ved just in case I might need it.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Apparently there is no HP software support for the HP 3050 fax or scan functions with OS X 'Lion' 10.7:

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?&objectID=c0292511 4
Alternatives?
1) Run a Windows client on the Mac using Boot Camp or one of the available virtualization programs like Parallels, VMware Fusion, and others so you can run the latest Windows print/fax/scan driver.
2) If your Mac hardware supports an older OS X version, downgrade to one (Snow Leopard?) that still had support for print, fax and scan.
3) Buy a newer printer. A 2007 model is 5+ years old, and should now be fully depreciated in a business.

Messages app can't connect

Hi,
I can't connect to my iMessage account with the Messages application from my Mac ( 10.8.5)
I am retyping my user/password - which works for my other Apple services ( iCloud, iTunes store,...) but the Messages app can't connect.
Also, the FaceTime application can't connect either.
Thanks,

for the Points.

My imac running lion can not connect to a Windows PC on my network

My imac runing lion 10.7 can not connect to my Windows 7 pc on my network. When i select connect to server, I can see the windows computer but when i try to connect, i get the error message:
Connection failed. There was a problem connecting to the server. Ther server may not exist or is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection and try again.
I entered smb:// computer name and I tried smb://IP address. Neither would connect.
I am able to connect to the imac from my Window PC and access files but not I can not connect my iMac to the Windows PC.
I am trying to connect the two computers so that I can use a printer that is attached to the Windows 7 pc.
When I first downl;oaded and installed Lion, I was able to connect to the Windows 7 pc and use the printer attached to it.
I have tried 5 or 6 different suggestions to no avail. Both computers are up to date and the printer drivers are up to date.
Please let me know if there is a solution.

Be sure to make the network Workgroup name on the Mac and Windows boxes the same.
On the Mac it is in System Preferences, Network Preferences, Advanced, WINS
On the Windows machine check in the Control Panel where you will also find the Computer name listed. I don't have my PC running right now, so I am not sure exactly where it is. Only assign a Workgroup, do not create a Domain.
You can also search in Windows for Workgroup.
I can link/network Lion to Win7 and vice versa without any problems.

Anyone with a MAC who can't connect to Music Store???

Is there anyone else out there on a Mac who can't connect to the Music Store?
I've been reading a bunch of threads with similar connection timeout issues but they mainly belong to Window users, users in England who are using an ISP with Orange, and users who are using personal firewalls.
Just a week ago was downloading songs fine and suddenly three days ago, I can't do anything. Redeem a code, download a song.
I've contacted Apple Customer Service but am getting the run-around with automatic emails, emails that send me to Windows articles, emails that seem to not be understanding what is going on.
Has anyone else with a MAC been able to figure out how to fix this? Is a specific modem issue (I have a Motorola cable modem)? Is this an ISP specific issue (I use Cox Communications)? Or is this a widespread Apple issue?
Ideas? Suggestions??

Yeah It would be nice if the put ALL windows forums in one section and leave it out of the mac sections, or atleast split the ipod forums one for windows one for macs but ho well...
I know for iTUnes they have a windows only section, but then for some reason they dumped all windows topics in the iTUnes for mac section too. so Time to Time we get mac posters here and have to redirect them

Can you connect iPad to Mac mini, Can you connect iPad to Mac mini?

Every Mac Mini has a USB port. Every Mac Mini can run iTunes. The only catch is that you need to be running Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard) or later. So in general, yes, an iPad can connect to a Mac Mini.

Re: Can't connect to X11 window server using 'localhost:0.0'

Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

Hi,
I'm running WebLogic 5.1 sp10 on a Solaris box and I get the
following error:
java.rmi.RemoteException: java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to
X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.

caused by the following code fragment:

FontMetrics fm = (new Panel()).getFontMetrics(f);
Have I just forgotten to set an environment variable? I would prefer
not to install bulky pieces of software, but if that's what it takes
to get over this error, so be it.
Thanks, Dave A.

A Java AWT, X11 problem posted in the weblogic ejb newsgroup. I haven't been in here for long, but
that has to be a first.
If you have the DISPLAY env variable set to :0.0, you have to be at the console on a Solaris box
running the XServer. 'xdm' I think is the code that has to be running. Also, I think the format is
<hostname:0.0> or better <hostname:0> unless you are on a multi-headed workstation. Something like:
export DISPLAY=hostname:0
where hostname is the name of the host running an XServer and the .xhosts file allows access to the
XServer from the display client.
Apparently, you are not at the console?
Anyway, I don't think there is a newsgroup here that I could even recommend to cross-post this to as
it is not a WebLogic question. I think I would try the Discussion Forums at http://java.sun.com.

Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY

i try to use jfreechart to create a piechart on a aix os with jdk1.3.1 and the aix system does not have a xwindow installed

i got the tip of passing -Djava.awt.headless=true to vm to disable system graphic calls but after restart weblogic i still get the same error
i am wondering if this case has something to do with jdk 1.3.1, and perhaps newer versions of jdk can take the parameter and operate correctly
is that right?

is headless option supported in jdk1.3.1?No,
It was added in JDK 1.4:
