Mac Sharing Issues

Hi
I recently installed NM on one PC laptop and an iMac and a Macbook. The two iMacs already shared files seamlessly and they are the two main computers but I thought I'd install NM on all computers to allow for sharing of files between my son's laptop and the macs and also to share a printer. Ever since then I have had nothing but issues on the macs. On each one, everytime it wakes up or logs into a different user it asks you to sign in to the other mac for sharing. "Enter your name and password for the server" and it asks twice, once for the mac's name, and another time for the mac's IP Address. If you click "cancel" the dialog will just pop up again a few seconds later, if you try to move it to the side, it will just pop up again a few seconds later. If you sign in to the other mac twice, then everything is fine until you log out or the computer falls asleep. I don't get why I have to do this since the computers worked great together before. Even when I disable sharing on the computers, I still get the sign in box and when I try to sign in, I get an error that says I can't connect to the server. I have tried a Repair Permissions and Restarting but neither makes this error disappear.
The PC is XP SP3
The Macs are both 10.6.3
The router is a Linksys WRT610N
All are wireless
NM is the latest version on both. I can find out the PC version later, but Macs are running 4.0.9262
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Create a new account on the PC which matches the shortname and password on the Mac.
Use this new account to share the folders you want to share, do not try and share the whole drive.

PSE 6 for Mac Sharing Issue

I can't figure out how to send multiple photos using the Share tab in PSE 6 for Mac.
I select all from Edit and then click on the email attachments button under Share but only the first photo is converted and placed into a new email message.
Whats the trick for getting multiple jpg photos into one email?
Thanks.

I guess I'll report it to Adobe
Since it's been broken for just about seven years now, I think they know.
To make a combined file, create a new blank file big enough to hold all your images (it helps if you make sure everything has the same ppi setting before you start this), then copy/paste the individual images into the new master copy. Use save for web to save it as a jpg and pay close attention to how big it is: many people still have mailbox attachment limits of 5MB or less, total.

Printing to a Mac shared printer from windows 8

How can I print to a Mac shared printer (OS: 10.8.2) from my Windows 8 PC which is using the same Apple network?
Matthias

I have tried using Bonjour on for Windows on Win8 however while it finds the printer and can add it no problem whenever a job is sent to the printer a blank page is printed. The Win8 machine can print to the printer fine if directly connected and the same driver is used when printing via Bonjour so one can only assume it's a "communications" issue between the Win8 machine and my Mac Pro which is sharing the printer.

Potential Solution: Home Sharing issues with iTunes 10.6

TL;DR: On a hunch, I changed the power settings of the ATV to never sleep. Since then, I have not had any issues. Granted, it's only been a couple of days, but it seems to have done the trick.
Folks,
Wanted to share my experience with Home Sharing issues after upgrading to iTunes 10.6. These forums a rampant with reports of the issue, so I'll defer to the search field above if you don't know what I am talking about. In short: iTunes 10.6 seems to have busted Home Sharing.
For those who do, here's what I found:
For some reason, is saw a very large number of established sessions from my Apple TV (ATV) into port 3689 on my Mac. This is the port that ATV uses to query iTunes to see what's available via Home Sharing (e.g.: what movies, songs, pictures, etc are available for display on the ATV).
A sniffer cap and some observation of the power indicator on the ATV indicated that while it was sleeping, the ATV was querying iTunes. It would power on for a sec (wake on LAN, maybe?), issue some queries, then sleep.
When this happened, the TCP sessions created were never town down. As such, I would eventually see 200+ established sessions on port 3689. I don't know exactly how many it took to make this happen, but when I saw this, iTunes stopped accepting new connections.
Of course, bouncing iTunes would remedy the issue for a while, but it would return.
On a hunch, I changed the power settings of the ATV to never sleep. Since then, I have not had any issues. Granted, it's only been a couple of days, but it seems to have done the trick.
I would be interested to hear if it works for others.
Happy viewing,
Chris

Thanks for posting this.
I've been searching for an option of how to approach this problem.
I picked up the new AppleTV when it was released, but it has made iTunes fairly useless from a Home Sharing standpoint.
I also observed the massive number of TCP connections being opened against iTunes, but never closed.
As expected, I could manually kill a few of these connections, and then could connect again, even without closing iTunes.
I performed most of my testing with Windows 7, but while troubleshooting I had the same issue with iTunes on an old Mac Mini I had sitting around.
I will try your solution, which makes a lot of sense, but it would be nice if Apple fixed the real problem.
Thanks again.

Mac System Issue pop up window has disabled Safari. Please help?

I clicked on a video on FaceBook & ended up with a pop up that says I have a serious Mac system issue & I need to call this phone number immediately.
I can't do anything at all with Safari now. Has anyone had this issue? Know how to get rid of it? I

Force quit Safari and relaunch it with the Shift key held down. If that doesn’t work, disconnect the computer from the Internet and try again.

MAC Flapping Issue

Dear Folks,
I am working with a IT organization as network administrator, at client site we are getting the MAC FLAPPING issue since 1 month, due to that some time it completely down my whole network. Scenario is like that, we are using Ruckus AP and Zone director as a WLAN controller which is directly conecteted with our core switch. Rest of indoor AP's are connected with Distribute and access switch. Now since 1 month we are getting in core switch below mention notification -

As mentioned in msg 12 & 13 VLAN is our WLAN.
After getting this msg automatically all network goes down, I need to shut down the associated port winch is directly or indirectly connected with AP, and after some time it will work properly.
Now I need some mechanism which can be block the duplicate source mac address to preventing from this kind of scenario.

Hi Devils,
Answer is in below -
1. Are those MAC addresses actual Wireless Hosts? i.e have you traced them?
= Yes, those are actual wireless MAC add, I have check in zone director controller.
2. Are the SSID's set to tunnel?
=No
3. Do you have one ZoneDirector or two?
=Two, both of them are connected with core switch.
I have been confirmed about that if wireless users are roaming between two AP or more it will appear the same error msg, now what would be the solution. ????
What extly the solution is?>
Where should i implement the solution on switch or zone director?
Please suggest!!!!!

Crystal Report Application Sharing Issue

We are receiving the following error message when trying to open up Crystal Reports from within our application.
Unable to load Crystal Report user function dll:
e:\Program Files\Centricity Practice Solution 90\Client\mlcrwlib2.dll.
The report may not run correctly.
Here is an explanation of our current environment:
We are utilizing Crystal Reports XI R2 SP6 using the ActiveX Designer control, craxddrt.dll, to open up Crystal Reports within a Visual Basic project. I did not see a VB forum so I'm posting here in .NET.
We are including the 4 Crystal Merge Modules in our InstallShield Project when installing our application so we feel we are installing correctly, but there appears to be a Crystal Reports sharing issue with another application. When we attempt to open up our Crystal Reports from within the application, we get the error message above. If we click OK to the error message our report opens. I would like to eliminate the error message, but I'm not sure why we are even calling the file in the error above.
I'm assuming that the other application has created a user function or something that is registered within Crystal Reports, but we do not have access to or cannot load it. We have not been able to reach anyone from the other software application company to ask questions so I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction as to what is going on here.
I have verified that the Business Objects folder was created with the run-time files needed to run Crystal Reports. I also see a previous version of Crystal Reports run-time files on this server since a Crystal Report folder exists. I have utilized Process Monitor to see that the correct craxddrt.dll is being opened, but I cannot figure out how the file in the error message above is being called.
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Marlon,
I worked on a Centricity (GE Medical) issue with the Report Designer Component (RDC) a number of months ago. As part of my troubleshooting I discovered that their application uses an atypical deployment of the Crystal runtime files for their Centricity application. The "short" version is that the way they implemented the RDC would not have been supported by SAP Support.
I was never able to resolve the Centricity issue, but proved that their implementation of the RDC was the root cause of the issue. The mlcrwlib2.dll is a Centricity DLL that seems to control how/where the craxdrt.dll / craxddrt.dll file is loaded (location A in one work stream in their application, location B in another work stream in their application).
One of the side effects of this DLL is that it "took over" how the craxdrt.dll would load for any other application that also used the RDC (craxdrt.dll / craxddrt.dll). I proved the issue by sending them a simple sample application that was written in CPP. Using CPP allowed us to eliminate the need to reference any other dependencies besides the Crystal runtime files. This sample application consistently failed with a reference to their mlcrwlib2.dll - which I knew wasn't referenced in my CPP sample. At the time Centricity wasn't able to explain why their mlcrwlib2.dll was being picked up by my sample. I expect that their issue would be resolved once they discovered why mlcrwlib2.dll loaded erroneously, but they were still working on the answer to that question.
Because we couldn't determine how and why the mlcrwlib2.dll was behaving as it did I'd suggest not trying to use a "side by side" installation of another RDC application. I know it's not much of an answer, but it might help explain why all the regular troubleshooting steps aren't working for you.
Sincerely,
Dan Kelleher

Apple TV Home Sharing Issue (SOLVED for me)

I had been having problems with Home Sharing while other functions (Netflix etc) worked fine. My setup is wireless using Time Capsule. My network was "open" (password not needed). I had tried everything from recycling my DSL modem and Time Capsule and turning Home Sharing off and on (on my computer and the Apple TV) without success.
My Time Capsule has the ability to connect at 5GHz or 2.4GHz. Additionally, my networks may or may not be password protected. I finally changed to a network that required a password and my Home Shareing issue ended. Since that network change everything works fine.

I was going crazy trying to play music from my Itunes library and watch slideshows of my photos as, once started, the application would quit within a minute of starting. I called Apple Support and tried everything they sughgested - restart, restore etc. Finally, I turned my router off and let it reset. When I turned it back on. everything worked. I could have saved a lot of aggravation had I been instructed to do so originally.

MAC address issue----Spearman

Saw your comments on this in the post about the 1.9 bios for neo2platty ....
I can confirm that My MAC address issue was caused by the bios that you sited in your comments....all F's were written to My nvidia lan too...
only solution from what I have read is too rma it...'bummer'
just thought You would like to know.... Your not alone

I had the same problem yesterday and after many hours searching the web I ended up with this post that made me really desperate... But I didn't give up and while trying a new bios flash because of random crashes when in the bios, I noticed the obvious: you can change the MAC address when flashing
use the last version of the dos flasher with the parameters /nvmac:xxxxxxxxxxxx/wb after the name of the bios file; it's explained if you ask the help with the /help parameter. You can find the mac address on a stick on the parallel port.

I am having the same problem but cannot get anything but the actual phone to work. I have a unlocked 3GS running 6.0 (what was I thinking?). No data whatsoever, no texting, no visual voicemail. I simply cannot access the APN settings. I have tried sim swap, I have tried APN changers. I have been on the phone with ST tech support for hours and hours. I have tried to get the answers from a "genius". I am stuck and looking at Android devices, but would really like to keep using the iphone with Straight Talk.

Outlook sharing issues

I have 2 users with Outlook 2013. One is trying to send a shared task to the other. Other people in the department are able to view it with no issue. When the user receives the invite it says: "This sharing message is not valid. All action buttons have
been disabled." Then below: (Sender not verified) Microsoft exchange tasks. I've been googling the error for a way to resolve this and I can't seem to find a compatible answer. This also happened with 2 other users involving sharing a calendar, they were
finally able to share but only through another user's computer. I'm sure there must be a setting somewhere that needs to be changed, but I don't know where.

Hi,
According to your description, I understand that there is a Task sharing issue between two specific users. But the task can be shared in another user’s computer.
If so, the issue should be related to the Outlook profile in the problematic user’s computer. Please create a new Outlook profile to check whether the issue persists:

If it doesn’t work, restart Outlook in safe mode (Start > Run >type “Outlook /safe”> Enter) to have a try.

Penryn Macs having issues?

Okay,
I have finally decided to move to Mac OS and buy a MacBook Pro.
* iWork '08 preinstalled
* Accessory Kit
* MacBook Pro 15-inch Widescreen Display
* 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
* 200GB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
* Backlit Keyboard/Mac OS - U.S. English
* SuperDrive 8x (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
* 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
* Apple Remote
* NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT with 256MB
I am extremely exited. But before i order, i was wondering if I should expect allot of problems? About 2 years ago, my friend bought a macbook and had to have it replaced 5 times. How have the Penryn macs been?
This will l be my first Mac ever so I am hoping to have a good transition to the mac world:)
Thanks,
Mac Zac.

Hi Zac.
Let me be the first to say, welcome to the light side!
Regarding the Penryn Macs: No, there are not so many issues that you should hold off buying one. If you browse the forums here you'll find lots of people running into problems. But remember that all the millions of people that DON'T have problems don't come here to tell you everything's working fine. For the vast majority of people, Macs work seamlessly, day in and day out.
Of course, like all technology products, sometimes Macs have issues. They are made out of the same silicon and chips as other computers and, like those other computers, components can fail or go bad. That's just life. The good news is: it's rare.
Likewise, Leopard is running extremely well for the vast majority of people. To be sure, there are a few small issues affecting small groups of people. Some folks are having wireless troubles, others are seeing some typing issues after a keyboard firmware update, for some folks iTunes is locking up while browsing cover flow. But, again, these issues don't appear to be too widespread and I would certainly not hold off buying a Mac because of them. You can bet that Apple engineers are all over the issues and they'll be resolved soon.
To sum up: the state of the Mac world is fantastic. Like everything else in life, it's not perfect. But it's as close as you'll get with a computer! My advice is to pull the trigger and enjoy the switch! And I'll put my money where my mouth is as well: my $3,000 Penryn MacBook Pro arrives tomorrow morning.

Sharing Issue

Can anybody tell me please how to view the shared windows folders on Mac because i share folders on windows but i dont see it on my mac network so can anybody tell me how ??
Thanks in Advance

Oh right, no I hadn't understood.
I haven't ever done this, but I wonder if these links will provide the info you seek? Can't vouch for whether it will work. I think there is more info available on windows/Mac sharing in the Mac site as well - I believe I once came across a PDF file for download about it, but can't remember where. anyway, good luck:
