MacBook with Windows Vista Shared Folders

So, my question and the problem is, that I can't seem to make my MacBook connect to a Windows Vista shared folder (Default Public folder, or any other folder). I've tried pretty much everything on the windows end. I've reset the sharing options, started from scratch, and my MacBook still can't connect to it. When I use the smb://192.168.1.199 (windows machines ip), it hangs for maybe a minute, and gives me this message: "Finder can't complete the action, because some of the data in "smb://192.168.1.199" can't be read or written (Error -36)." Sorry for the typos, but i'm translating from Finnish to English.
Also, the funniest thing is that it worked previously, a week ago to be exact, and then, one day it just stopped working. I've tried almost anything that I can think of. Every setting is the way they were, when it still worked. Does anyone of you guys here, have any idea what could be causing this anomaly?

Hi:
till now I did a great progress, I get see the windows vista server from my MAC (even when I get change a rule in the norton filrewall) and now the windows ask for a user and password, I create a user like I have in the MAC with the same password but all the time reject the connection, look I put the wrong password but isn't
Any idea?

TS5376 I have a laptop that i am running with Windows Vista. A while ago, it stopped running iTunes and comes up with the error : Runtime Error: R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.

I have an iMac as my home computer, upgraded to this about a year ago from a windows pc and love it.
However...
I have a HP Compaq laptop that i am running with Windows Vista, which I use when travelling. A while ago, I believe on an update, to either windows or itunes, it stopped running iTunes and comes up with the error : Runtime Error: R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
I have a reasonable amount of tunes stored on my laptop, and am unable to ascertain as to whether this fix for allowing itunes to work again will delete my music folder and lose all the tunes i have on my laptop already?
The contents of my music folders on my laptop and iMac are not the same, as they are not synced!
Any help please on this would be appreciated!

ITunes error when launching with Windows Vista Laptop

The iTunes application could not be opened. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation. How do I resolve this. I reinstalled, I checked permissions for my account, and I checked permissions for the folders. I am using a Windows Vista laptop.

Making iSight work with Windows Vista on VirtualBox

I have a MacBook Pro with Windows Vista installed on the VirtualBox platform. The only problem I have is that it will not work with the iSight camera. I need the cam for video conferencing on a webring, and I do have to run the ring in Windows. When I start the ring, the camera comes on but I never get an image. The image screen just says "Initializing" and shows a counter showing the seconds elapsed. Is there a driver I can install, or some sort of workaround?
Thank you,
Leah

Hi,
Then you need to get at least the Snow Leopard Install Disk at the $29 price.
The Original Disks will be grey and are Model Specific.
That is to say that any Grey disks for an iMac for example are only useful to Reinstall the OS on another iMac from the same Production range - say Early 2008

Dual Boot with Windows Vista

Hi
I am a complete n00b with Mac. The director at my company requested me to set up her MacBook (running Mac OSX 10.4.11) to dualboot with Windows Vista 32 bit. I have been searching Google and I cannot find anything.
Can someone please run me through what I'll need and how exactly to do it?
Thank you in advance

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Check out the BootCamp set up guide before installing Windows on a Mac.
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf
As Kurt mentions... you must be running Leopard 10.5.x to do this.
And more information here. http://lifehacker.com/software/geek-to-live/virtualize-and-dual+boot-the-same-wi ndows-on-your-mac-267905.php

Is Apple TV compatible with Windows Vista?

I moved my music library to a new PC with Windows Vista OS. I am able to communicate with ATV but cannot sync it.
I removed my old library in ATV via COMPUTERS and was able to have ATV recognize the music library on my new Windows Vista PC, but the sync lasts about 2 seconds.
I went back to my old PC and synced without any problems.
I also updated to the latest versions of iTunes and ATV software.
Are there any known issues with Vista and ATV?

AC, Thanks for the reply.
I've been trying to make this work for 3 days now. So I'm not certain just how I made the transfer to the new PC. I think I made the music folder a shared file and then exported it to the new PC.
It would not be too difficult to redo it if I could get it right.
What would be the best way to create the library on my new PC?

Bootcamp with Windows Vista

Does installing bootcamp with Windows Vista significantly slow down a mac with a noticeable difference? I have a pretty new mac and am thinking about using this function. Does it make more sense to install windows xp? And what is a good amount of space to leave for the windows side to have?

Does installing bootcamp with Windows Vista significantly >slow down a mac with a noticeable difference?
What do you mean by this? Slows down the whole system? Or the performance of windows?; since you mentioned XP on your later question.
I have tried both windows (vista & xp) on a macbook, and for performance, xp is faster.
as for the whole system (macosX & windows) no diffrence in boot up and speed
as for partition size of windows... that would depend on you whether your mp3, pics, videos would be used on windows or mac... mine is 20gb with no problem

Problem Laserjet 1000 with Windows Vista 32 bit

Good morning. I have a laserjet 1000 connected to the USB port on another computer with windows xp and shared. I have to connect it to another pc with windows vista pc with ip address. Install the printer but does not work. I used the driver for win xp as I read on several forums but it does not work. What kind of driver should I use ?
Can you give me some advice ?
Thank you

If your model is lacking the correct Vista drivers from Lenovo and Vista doesn't offer native support then I see upgrading to Windows 7 as your only option. Here is a link to what Lenovo drivers are available.......

Website was designed with windows vista. Muse no longer supports vista, how do I transfer to another PC

Website was designed with windows vista. Muse no longer supports vista, how do I transfer to another PC. Muse can longer be opened without being updated and no update is available?
thnaks

Thanks for your response.
I cannot find the .muse file, I have a lot of muse files but I cannot retrieve any information as they wont open in vista. when i search muse on mu comp I cannot find .muse files.
When I right click the icon I can send files to a memory stick, about ten file folders from assets to welcome, plus muse application 382kb and muse on air 6152 kb it is a ten page site with lots of images.
Once I get to my windows 7 pc I copy from the memory stick and paste the files into the muse file on my c drive
It looks like it is starting to open but stops, not recorded on tack manager as running bug muse logo freezes on screen.

Windows xp shared folders

I can't see my windows XP shared folders from my MBP. I've tried using the finder's go->connect to server and typing in the computer name and also the IP. I type in the pc address and finder defaults to afp://192.168.1.100. I then get an error message saying:
"connection failed
The server may not exist or it is not operational at this time. Check the server name or ip address and your network connection and try again"

This sill doesn't work. I just got off a call (2 hours long) with a specialist that's very knowledgeable, he was really great! He said this is a known issue with leopard. Here's my setup:
Netgear WRG602 V2 wireless router (connected to 4 port linksys)
Linksys BEFSR41 V2 wired 4 port router
Westell B90 Model using Bellsouth DSL
The support guy asked me all about my network setup. The interesting thing is that I can get further when I'm using wireless. When I use ethernet straight into the Linksys router I can no longer see the computer, only the workgroup.
He's submitting this to engineering and they're going to get back to me in a few days. About the only thing he knows that would work with this setup is a print server.
Oh well So I wait ...
Edit:
And I forgot, he mentioned that enabling file sharing on Leopard shouldn't really fix the problem. He said he had been hearing reports of this.

TS3694 itunes will not install on my laptop any more. The latest update seems incompatible with Windows Vista.

The latest iTunes update will not install on my HP laptop with Windows Vista. There is a Microsoft Visual C++ runtime error message and it will not load or set p.

I reinstall Quicktime and it would not launch and gave me the same error messages.
We'd better check to see if some other application has stashed old versions of QuickTime componentry down in your system files.
So we'll go looking for the older QuickTime componentry in the most common locations for it to be stashed.
First we'll need to change some view settings.
In your Start menu, open Computer.
In your Organise menu, select Folder Options.
In the View tab, make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is selected, and Hide extensions for known file types is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in Computer, open your C:\ drive (or whichever drive you have your operating system installed on).
Open the "Windows" folder.
If you have a 32-bit version of Windows, open the "System32" folder.
If you have a 64-bit version of Windows, open the "SysWOW64" folder.
What files and folders can you see in there with QuickTime in the title? (In a standard installation of Quicktime you should be seeing precisely two files ... QuickTime.qts and QuickTimeVR.qtx ... and no QuickTime folders whatsoever.)

Recognizing an iPod with Windows Vista

I have a new computer that came with Windows Vista. I have not been able to get iTunes to operate correctly for Windows Vista to recognize the USB connection to my iPod. Anyone have a patch or downloadable software suggestion to resolve this?

groans
I finally figured I had nothing to lose--I'd just downloaded a new version of Real Player, which supposedly will work with iPods and Windows Me--and I let my computer format the iPod, hoping that would let it work with Windows again. Apparently not. Now it won't turn on--it's giving me the folder-and-exclamation-point icon. Resetting it didn't help, and I can't restore it because I can't install the software to my computer in the first place.
I suppose the only thing to do is borrow a friend's computer or something.

Ipod touch with windows vista

Hi,Im looking into geting the ipod touch,but I have read that the ipod touch does not work well with windows vista. I know the new itunes 7.5 just came out. Has that version fixed the problems with the ipod? Also what are the problems the ipod touch is haveing with vista. I have windows vista 32 bit OS. Thank you very much for your help.

Hey, yeah I have major problems syncing to Vista. The album artwork is assigned to the wrong songs or sometimes a chunk of the picture is not in the right place, some of my songs stop half way through the song then the iPod skips to the next song on the list. My movies periodically decide to crash and the only way to get past these spots is to skip ahead (which is very difficult on the iPod touch especially when the movie is long cause you dont want to miss too much) but yeah just letting you know that there ARE some issues with it not saying that yours will do the same but it might.

Error ~69 with Windows Vista?

I just purchased a new Gateway with Windows Vista to replace my Dell with XP. Ever since I purchased my Gateway, I am unable to sync any iTunes purchases or material imported from CDs to my iPod 30GB. I keep receiving the ~69 message "Unable to sync to iPod. An unknown error occurred. (~69)." Following this error, the iPod only seems to sync the songs that I've recently played on my iPod when it's been disconnected from my computer.
Is this a problem with my iPod, Vista, or some combination of the two? I do not see any songs that should be causing a problem, and my entire library synced with no problems on the Dell XP machine.

Unfortunately, I tried every solution on the page (including restoring) and it still doesn't work. I thought the problem was because of a bad video file that iTunes warned me to delete, but that doesn't work at all.
There has to be an issue with Vista. The iPod worked just fine on my Dell with Windows XP. As soon as I switched computers, it stopped working. What issues does iPod have with Vista?
