Mac book air os x lion windows network connection keep getting locked out

hello, I have an end user with a mac air, running os x lion. I attached him to a network share on the windows network active directory on server 2008. he is the only one that when he clicks on the network share it locks him out. I check a/d and he is locked out each time. Is there a fix for this. other computer specs are processor 1.7 ghz intel core i5 4gigs memory. this should be an easy fix for such a robust machine.

Hey,
yes I did get to the bottom of this problem!!!. After spending some time on the phone with apple support they suggested that it was probably a problem with the hardware on my macbook air.
So I took this to an apple shop they had a look and it was infact a problem with the logic board. Not sure what was wrong specifically but they replaced it and then reinstalled OS for me and now works perfectly. All came under the warrenty obviously.
I had a look at your thread and it seems that your having the same problem, only thing i can suggest is ring support if you havnt done so already they will go through recovery with you, should be all free if you have just bought your new mac. Alternatively, to save time I would quickly check and download via a different internet connection/ try connect your mac to the router with an ethernet cable, just to see wether its an internet issue.
If this fails unfortunately you will most likely have to take it to an apple store to get them to take a look!.
Good luck
A

    If you aren't sure, (you can do this in Safe Mode) click About this Mac from your Apple menu 
    Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information.

    You are not addressing Apple, but a community of unpaid volunteers. So ASAP won't cut it. Also, you should refrain from posting personal information (like your email address) in the body of your comments, as this is part of the community usage guidelines.
    Have you reinstalled the latest Boot Camp Windows 7 drivers, just in case Microsoft overwrote some of them during the Windows 7 security update?

    NO.... he has a workstation, and not MBP, nor are "drivers already loaded."
    How I would proceed -
    Install Windows on its own drive. 
    Pull all the other drives.
    Boot from Windows 7 Pro DVD
    Forget Boot Camp Assistant, it doesn't do anything - unless you really want to install Windows on the SAME drive as Mac OS - not ideal and not what most of Mac Pro owners do.
    Just insert your OS X DVD once Windows is up to date - helps to buy the SP1 OEM version $129.
    Run Apple SETUP.exe (Boot Camp 3.0.x drivers) and update with ASU or manually to 3.2.
    No you don't need to go back and use that ATI. And you dont' want to be in the situation of changing from ATI to Nvidia and all the hassle that adds. you are fine.
    The Mac Pro is as close as anything to a standard Wintel workstation. 
    Add MS Security Essentials or KIS or whatever you favor. KIS2011 or NIS2011 are good, MSSE 2.0 is free and based on their enterprise product.

  • Mac Book Air is charged but the circle just keeps going around and I can't even get to sign in?

    Mac Book Air is charged, the apple appears but the broken circle just keeps going and does not even take me to the sign in; any hints?

    If you don't see any option, maybe your hard disk is damaged.
    Close the OS X installer pressing the red button at the top left corner of the window, and open Disk Utility. Then, after opening Disk Utility, look at the left sidebar. What do you see at the top of the sidebar? Do you see the hard disk? If not, take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired.
    If you see the hard disk, select it and try to repair it. If it shows an error at the end, you will have to take the Mac to an Apple Store

  • My mac book air fan is staying on, how can I get it back to normal?

    I cna hear the processor or fan in my Mac Book Air, and it won't stop. Has anyone had a similar problem? Does anyone have any ideas about how I might resolve this issue? Thanks for your help!

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    First, reset the SMC. It will restore the fan speed, so if it was changed, it will be restored to normal settings and the fan will work correctly

    What type/brand of wireless router do you have?
    Do you know what type of encryption you are using?  IE none,WEP,WPA,WPA2
    Are there other wireless devices on your wireless network?
    ...if yes, do they work ok?
    Do you live in an apartment complex?
    Some ISP's  (Internet service providers) give you a single unit device which is a wireless router and MoDem in one unit.  You may want to have your ISP come out and set up this device again.  If there is something you don't understand let us know.

  • I have accidentaly droped my mac book air. when i turned it on it keeps on freezing can someone help me?

    i had just started using mac and i dont know what to do.

    Well, since you dropped it, this problem is not covered by Apple's limited warranty.  You should take it in for service and have a professional look at it.  We have no idea what kind of damage was done to it when it was dropped.
