Mac OS X 10.6.3 v1.1 not connect to Windows 7

I am trying to transfer files from the Windows 7 system to the Mac OS X system. I have tried everything from the following sites and I am not able to get it to work:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1568
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8201.html
Why am I not able to get this to work and how do I fix it.

I also remembered a trick that worked for me on my home network (Windows 7, 10.6.3). I renamed the Windows 7 WokGroup name to a custom name. Then on my 10.6.3 machine I went into System Preferences->Network, Advanced button, WINS tab and put in the new WORKGROUP name and in the box bellow I added the Windows 7 IP. After about 5 minutes the Windows 7 appeared in my Finder's sidebar and I could connect using my Windows login name & password. However it would disappear upon ejecting the mounted share but I could still Command+K to it.
On the windows 7 I am not using the Windows 7 "HomeGroup" but an only doing simple file sharing.
Plus read this Apple thread and try some of the hints there.

Try resetting the SMC (no peripherals required).

After installed win7 on my mac pro(mid 2012/mountain lion), I can not connect internet and where can i find drivers in mountain lion system.
I donot think I have a install disk when I bought my mac, there is only a disc partition for recovery system.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You have to install Boot Camp drivers. On Mountain Lion, you have to download them.
First, press X key while your Mac is starting to start into OS X. Then, open Boot Camp Assistant and select the option to download the drivers. You will have to burn them into a DVD or USB drive, so after downloading them, restart and install them into Windows

Connect iPad to MAC computer and get this message: iTunes could not connect to the iPad because the device timed out. What is the likely problem???

Eject the iPad, quit iTunes, restart the Mac and reset the iPad and try again. Use another USB port on the Mac if you have a free one to use.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up.

I am using Mac book with windows 7. But my sound card and cam is not working when booted through windows. How can I solve this?
Thanks

Assuming that you tried to install Win 7 in bootcamp.
Power on the machine and press and hold the "option" key when you hear the bong sound.
Select the Macintosh HD icon and press "return" or just click on the icon.
Once booted into OS X go to System Preferences and select the Startup Disk icon and configure startup to use the Macintosh HD.

My iMac (Mac os X Lion 10.7.5) does not connect to known Wi-Fi networks after turning it on or waking it up?

I've tried downloading this sowftware update but it says it needs version 10.7.3
Nothing seems to work, Please help.

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. In some cases, the problem has been resolved by repairing permissions on the startup volume.
7. Reinstall OS X.

My Mac Mini is not connecting to internet through the ethernet

Had an issue with my internet provider, which was resolved after a month.....at this point my internet is not connecting through the ethernet cable (no router is being used, from modem directly to mini mac).....ERROR:YOU ARE NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET
When checking on the Network Preferences it shows the ethernet connected but it does not show the Router IP nor the DNS Server.
If i run diagnostics ...ethernet is green, network settings is yellow and the the rest is red (how do i fix this network settings)
If i try to run the NETWORK SETUP ASSISTANT and tried using
IP 192.168.1.33
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Router 192.168.1.1 (even though i don't use a router, but this was the last set up i saw working)
DN S Server 192.168.1.1
It takes for ever as configuring but does not do anything
Please advise what am i doing wrong or missing here......
I've read people selling their equipment, taking it back, using their warranty.....i don't think it is something the serious but still i'm not going anywhere with my troubleshooting
HELP!!!!

Deleted the previous ethernet and added a new one (System Preferences/Network).....did not work
At this point in diagnostics it show Ethernet and ISP in green, Network Settings in yellow leaving Internet and Server in red.
It's a bit frustrating because it did work fine until a week a go and since then have tried several things and....nothing
Not interested in buying a router because of this issue......any other work around?

I have just purchased an HP Inkjet Pro 8610. I have done the installation and that went smoothly. I can print from my iPad and my iPhone but not from my Mac.

Any help?

How do i get win 8.1. *pro* for mac parallels, deauthorizing win 8.1 pro and license rules for windows vms

ok, i've seen this question asked a number of times. i know the general procedure:
- first download some installer things to a window box so i can make a bootable DVD / flash drive
- go the mac and use the DVD / usb stick to install the virtual machine
great.. BUT :
1) unfortunately, i'm still really confused at the most basic part which is where (link) do i actually get the initial download thing to create the 8.1 *PRO* from microsoft and where (link) / how do i pay for the subscription key to install the thing????
i keep seeing a link for windows 8 or windows 8.1 where windows PRO is NEVER mentioned. i ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE a) PRO 64 bit and NOT vanilla windows and b) it MUST BE A FULL INSTALL (i'm not upgrading from windows 7, 8 or 8.1 NON pro.. i'm going
to be installing this thing on a brand new system.
i'm an IT guy for two decades and i can tell you trying to find, download, install a clean version of windows 8.1 PRO is a royal pita and nothing about windows 8.1 PRO is intuitive on the MS site. it's almost as if they do NOT want you to install the
thing. i'm not trying to bust jewels here, i'm just being honest and providing feedback that you folks need to make this much more clear and intuitive. people really shouldN'T have to post on forums to find out how to purchase, download and enter
in a subscription key for a base version of an OS. it's crazy.
2) once i can figure out how to download, install and register the darn thing ;)... i'm curious how the licensing works.
2a) first if my windows 8.1 pro experiment on mac parallels sucks, i want to be able to remove the authorization so i can reinstall 8.1 pro on another system.   can i / how do i do this in my scenario?
2b) i actually already bought windows pro 8.1 about a year ago (to upgrade a laptop that came with 8 that i needed to upgrade to vanilla 8.1 then to finally to pro) so that i could windows phone 8.1 development with simulator on the laptop. unfortunately
the laptop maxed out at 4G and the performance of the emulator was ridiculously slow that it's unusable. i'd love to somehow be able to put the laptop back to windows *vanilla* 8.1 and reclaim my 8.1 pro that i *already* purchased by removing the authorization
from that laptop allowing me to reinstall the full 8.1 pro with the same key on the mac with parallels. then i can sell the laptop that has sat there collecting dust for a year and regain my windows 8.1 pro investment vs having to buy another copy for
the mac.
i have no idea how to do this though i think it should be possible. can anybody tell me where / how i do this?
note the win pro 8.1 install never went well so i actually had some guy from MS login to my laptop remotely and do the install.. in doing so i believe he wiped away the original windows vanilla 8.1 recovery partition asus put on the drive meaning i'm not
sure i can get the laptop back to 8.1 or 8 vanilla so i can resell it functionally to another person while removing my 8.1 *pro* license from it.   any suggestions here highly welcome.
2c) once i get the windows 8.1 pro installed in a vm under parallels, i'll have one licensed copy running. my guess is that is what i'm limited to. but when you start working with VMs the whole purpose is to be able to create multiple test
enviornments and dispose of them when you don't need them etc.   since the window will be tied to the single mac hw id, will i be able to install multiple *win* vms (duping an exising win vm for instance) from the one license or must i purchase
multiple win licenses for each win vm on the SAME system?   if you need a new license for each vm, wouldn't i have to do a FULL WINDOWS INSTALL every time i wanted to create another windows VM.. THAT IS CRAZILY INEFFICIENT...
there has to be some kind of option to dup a windows licensed vm on the SAME system yes? what are the rules / procedures for making this work.
i'm using parallels on mac as an example but the same question would apply to using hyperV (which i know nothing about at this point) as the virtual host platform as well.
i'm open to well thought out links that actually answer these questions succinctly in addition to comments here
thanks in advance

Hello bigbobber,
If you have issue in using Windows 8.1 Pro in the software parallels in MAC?

About the license issue, please read the following article about Buyer’s Guide and Microsoft software license agreement windows 8.1.

Error message "not connected to internet" when trying to sign in to BB id with Mac laptop

I have a Mac laptop and was forced to remove the original BB Link OS when the Z10 launched. I replaced the OS with the current one but now it doesn't allow me to use my Mac's computer name eg. John Smith's Mac book. I can only use a single name. I suspect that is why I'm not getting the itune's library to load. Also, I can't sign into my BB id, I get a message that says I'm not connected to the internet. I've taken the firewall off as I heard that was a solution with Windows but it didn't work. Any ideas?

i have the same problem. I have window 7 pc. I had to use internet to download link so i don't understand why it is not allowing me to use link or do set up. I uninstalled my previous bb desktop driver in hopes that would help. It didn't. I appreciate any help on this forum

I have a mac book air 11". When I boot up connected to the huge Thunderbolt screen it detects the detects the fact and gives me great quality. now I am travelling away from the scree it boots up, nice picture, then switches to rubbish resolution.

I have a Mac Book air 11". Normally at home I connect this to a large Thuderbolt Screen. When booting up it some times gets confused and offers me a low resolution result, but some plugging and unplugging of the screen fixes this. I assume it sometimes "sees" the big screen and sets the resolition accordingly. Sometimes does not. But now... I am away from big screen and cannot get the Macbook air on its one to deliver anything other than really poor resolution. I ahve done displays and chosen all three - but no better. And I have said Choose the Best ONe... again not luck. Any ideas. I read in back posts this was a problem a few years ago.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
I believe you have a failing GPU (aka Video Card). Run AHT and see what it tells you. Do not be afraid to run it up to three times in succession if at first it does not detect an error (sometimes errors that are caused by overheating will not show up until the computer is stressed enough - repeating AHT will do that).
As an aside - the MBA was not designed to take the place of a desktop. If you are powering your MBA by leaving it permanently attached to the thunderbolt port on the monitor you are shortening your battery life.
