Slow file listings in Finder AND Terminal on shares over wifi

I have a problem with slow directory listing performance with one client machine that accesses our file server over AFP. Here’s the basic setup.
Client1 (MBA,2013,10.9.2) <~> WAP <-> Switch <-> Server (Mini,10.9.2+Server 3.0.3)
Client2 (MBA,2012,10.8.5) <~> WAP <->
Client3 (iMac,2012,10.9.2) <-------->
This server provides DHCP, local DNS and file services for the network.
The issue only affects client1 when connected via wifi, wireless client2 and wired client3 all run full speed. Client1 runs full speed when attached using a wired connection.
The slow directory listing symptoms (5-30sec lag) are noticeable in Finder and Terminal (via ls, find etc) when attached to a share. It only affects file listings, other operations, such as file transfers, server pings, server ssh, as well as general http traffic all operate at full speed. Pings to the sever from client1 are a steady 1-2ms, even during a long lag.
I have read about people having similar problems (slow Finder etc) and I have tried a few suggestions, but I think this issue is a little different because it only occurs when connected over wifi, only for file listings and also affects terminal.
Any ideas?

Media Share over HTTP

I have a share from OS X Server that can be accessed over the internet by guests. On my router, I was able to browse smb shares over the internet by going to 192.168.1.1/shares/ and each share would show up in a folder, browsed by a folder tree over http. Can I do the same thing with afp shares? And if they load a large video, will it wait until it all loads to play, or buffer as it goes?

SMB, AFP, and HTTP are separate protocols. When they can browse your files via HTTP its because you have a Web server on your system configured for folder content browsing (ie, folder listings or WebDAV). You can definitely share folders through the internet via AFP, but will have to ensure the proper ports (ie, TCP 548) are open on your router, and that forwarding is properly set up on your router.
As for playback, most likely the files will need to load in full or at least in large part, but this will depend on the format of the file and the media player being used.

NFC File share over WiFi problem between camera - Q10

Hello Folks, I just got myself a Olympus camera with a WiFi NFC photoshare feature. I cannot get it to work with the Q10. Camera Side: WiFi enabled - the display shows a NFC Tag and also provides instructions for manual connexion.When I scan the tag with smarttag I get this string "OIS1,CP1%1H1UOP+++Y//,%*Z-+-X$" and the Q10 wants to search it in google (LoL)So I established the WiFi connexion manually as instructed by the Camera. The Q10 establish the connexion but warns about Internet not available with it. The camera instructions says the files are at http://oishare/ No matter how I try to enter this http://oishare/ link, the Q10 keeps sending it to Google where it get lost in translation. Does anyone has figure out that one out? Thanks folks

Thread update Network / Mobile Network must be turned off (at least data) in order to be able to access http://oishare/Then I managed to see the directory structure but I couldn't find any pictures on the camera. Later on, I found some instructions in other forums to Sideload the Snap Google Play client.With a Google Play account in hand via Snap, I downloaded and install the Olympus Photoshare app. The app installed properly and has its own NFC scan function compatible with the Camera NFC tag. I was then able to export the pictures to the Q10 and even remote control the Camera. Pretty cool.

Can't update media on iPhone 4S over wifi

When I first made the switch to wifi syncing, everything worked fine. I occasionally have to restart iTunes to get it to see the iPhone on my network, but I feel like that's to be expected. But before I would go to bed, I would delete some movies from my iPhone and then drag a bunch over to wirelessly update during the night.
But now, I am no longer able to interact with media at all over wifi. I can sync just fine, but I cannot delete or add content to my iphone. As soon as I try, iTunes reports that it's "Looking for iPhone" and after a few seconds, it disappears from my device list. And this can be just mere seconds after completing a wifi sync, so obviously, it can be "seen" by iTunes.
I've tried it with my iPhone plugged in to wall power and unplugged. I've tried restarting iTunes. I've tried restarting my iPhone. I've tried rebooting my computer (Windows 7). I've tried rebooting my wireless router. And now I'm stumped. AFAIK, no settings have changed, so I'm totally baffled as it used to work just fine.
Can anyone offer any hints?

Ok... apparently I found a way to update the lyrics on the iPhone 4S...
I basically deleted the song from both iTunes and iPhone, synced it, re-added the song back to iTunes and synced it again. That solved the problem.
FYI: I updated both the iOS and iTunes since I posted this question. So I’m currently running iOS 5.0.1 and iTunes 10.5.1 (42)
Just in case I've included step-by-step instructions:
(Assuming the Lyrics are showing up correctly on iTunes)
In iTunes: Library>Music> Right-click the song> Show in Finder
Copy (do not move) the file somewhere else (e.g. Desktop)
Back to iTunes: Right-click the song again but this time Delete>Move to Trash
On your iPhone: Music> select the tab for Songs, locate and delete the song from your iPhone. (just like when you delete an email or a text conversation -- swipe the song name and delete it)
iTunes or iPhone: Sync
Desktop: double click on the file to re-add the song to itunes. (but you will loose some info such as original date added, play count, ratings etc...)
iTunes or iPhone: Sync
The updated lyrics should be displaying now....
Note: If you skip the first sync or don’t do exactly as described above, you may have problems getting the song synced back to your iPhone. In early attempts, the song would show up on iTunes but not on the iPhone.
Sub-Note: Do it at your own risk.

Problems on ios 7 and a Ipod touch 5g with syncing over WiFi?

when i set my ipod to sync over WiFi it doesn't work and my songs get skipped over like they aren't actually there

Do the not sync?
Do they sync but not play on the iPod?
Do the play in iTunes on the computer?
Does any media now sync and play to the iPod via wifi?

Home pc is under my husband's user id, I have an iPad and iPhone under my apple id. I have more music on my iPad then on pc or iPhone. If I set up synching over wifi for my devices... What do they sync to? Will the songs on iPad be added to phone/pc?

Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

Why does Time Machine not work over wifi but only via ethernet cable ?

Hi everyone,
It's been some time I have this problem now.
The first time I backed up my mac within Time Capsule with time machine, I chose to use the ethernet cable because the gigabit connection is much faster than the wifi for the first back up, but now, any time I want to update this back up, I need to connect the cable, cause "Time Machine can not connect to the Drive I picked" over wifi.
This is so annoying. Does anyone have a similar issue ?
Any solution ?
When I got this "error" I can use Utility Airport and get full access to the drive, even in finder. The only thing that doesn't work is TimeMachine connecting to the drive, even if it is detected by TimeMachine itself.
Thanks.
Riccardo

Typical Yosemite.
I suggest a full reconfigure of the TC.
Follow this list..
No files are deleted on the TC doing this although you might have to repoint your laptop to the backup.
Note.. even if TM does connect it will say it is going to do a new backup.. it is only when it starts that it discovers the backup exists and increments it.
Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the hard disk doing this.
Factory reset universal
Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
Setup the TC again.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg TCgen5 for basestation and and TCwifi wireless name.
If the issue is wireless use TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense. But this can be tried in the second round. ie plan on a first and second round of changes to fix this.. hopefully.. I will point out other steps that can be round2.
2. Use all passwords that also comply with 1. but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. If the TC is main router you can skip this point. This is only an issue when the TC is bridged.
Ensure the TC always takes the same IP address.. you will need to do this on the main router using dhcp reservation.. or a bit more complex setup using static IP in the TC. But this is important.. having IP drift all over the place when Yosemite cannot remember its own name for 5 min after a reboot makes for poor networking.
4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. but this change will mess up your TM backup.. so be prepared to do a new full backup. Sorry.. keep this one for second round if you want to avoid a new backup.
5. Mount the TC disk in the computer manually.
In Finder, Go, Connect to server from the top menu,
Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever the TC ip is which you have now made static. As a router by default it is 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with that unless you know what you are doing).
You can use name.. SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your TC name.. local is the default domain of the TC and doesn't change.
However names are not so easy as IP address.. nor as reliable. At least not in Yosemite they aren't. The domain can also be an issue if you are not plugged or wireless directly to the TC.
6. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only. Do the same for ethernet if you use it.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
You might need to do some more work on the computer itself. eg Reset the PRAM.. has helped some people. Clean install of the OS is also helpful if you upgrade installed.
Tell us how you go.
Someone posted a solution.. See this thread.
Macbook can't find Time Capsule anymore
Start from the bottom and work up.. I have a list of good network practice changes but I have avoided Yosemites bug heaven.
Yosemite has serious DNS bug in the networking application.. here is the lets say more arcane method of fixing it by doing a network transplant from mavericks.

Share macbook WIFI on wired LAN

Is it possible to share internet connection from my Macbook to my desktop (wired of course)
I only got internet connectons via wifi on my macbook.
Heres what i want to do:
[*]Connect via wifi on macbook to my internet
[*]share the wifi connection from my macbook to the macbook LAN port
[*]run a cable (not sure if I need a cross over or straight from macbook to desktop LAN port
[*]use internet on desktop freely as if it was connected to a normal LAN cable

Hi
Any kind of ethernet cable will do. On the Mac, go to System Preferences - Sharing, turn on Internet Sharing, and select "Share connection from Airport" to computers using "Ethernet" (tick the Ethernet entry).
That should be all.

Can't wake Lion over wifi (or ethernet) using iPad and home sharing.

I've upgraded to Lion and everything's fine apart from one problem: using my iPad to access home shared iTunes content on my mac no longer works when my mac is asleep.
That's a change in behaviour from Snow Leopard; I used to be able to sleep my mac and then wake it over wifi using either my iPad or iPhone to access all of my home shared libraries. The mac screen used to light up for ten seconds and then go dark again, but it served me the files.
Lion seems to go into a deeper sleep which it can't be woken from. If I attempt to wake my mac from my iPad within about ten minutes of putting my mac to sleep then home sharing seems to work and lets me use the home share libraries, but if I leave it any longer than that then the mac seems to fall into a coma and can't be woken. The weird thing is that I still see a "shared library" folder on my iPad, but when I click on it nothing happens. I think my Time Capsule is listening for wifi access and issuing the magic packet to the mac, but the mac just ain't listening.
I'm using a Time Capsule in bridge mode from an ADSL modem and I've accepted a TC firmware update last week and I'm on lion 10.7.3. I've tried using Ethernet to connect the mac to the TC (and temporarily disabled the wifi connection) but that still doesn't work. Also, note I'm NOT suffering from the problem that 10.7.3 seems to be giving a few other people - my mac reconnects to my wifi just fine when I wake it up manually. For the record, This was an upgrade, so there's still a tick in "wake on network" in power settings and home sharing on iTunes is still configured the same as it was before.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can get home sharing to work when my Lion mac is asleep please?
Jon

Jonathan:
The reworked release of the Combo came available the 2-nd or 3-rd of Feb, if you downloaded 10.7.3 complete after that date it will be OK already, no need to instal the Combo. But you can see the exact number of 10.7.3 in System Information/ Software panel: it should be 11D50b.....
fzahn:
I understand, I have TC and Extreme also, no need to set anything. And indeed I understand that it may be important for (as it is for me),
BUT even if it worked after you replaced the kext, I advise strongly not to read in an old kext over a new one, that may give other issues (you observed one already: Airdrop)... I hope you backed up the Lion one... for example such "replacing" was done in one (lousy) tool called TrimEnabler (to install Trim on a non-Apple SSD in the SnowLeopard OS): it replaced the whole kext. I read that there is a new version for Lion that just replaces the text piece that regards the identification for the Apple SSD's.... I do not dare to use such methods.... I advise to read the kext and compare the two (SL and Lion) and perhaps find a way to just replace the one string that is different (be sure it is precisely the same lenth in caracters)... BTW: after every update of Lion you have to do it again probably. Keep searching for a better way to solve your problem.
Did you do the firmware update of the TC and Extreme already?
BTW: there are two Airport Utilities for Lion: Airport Utility 5.6 and Airport Utility 6, the 5.6 is the "old" visual but in the new one 6 you can not change as many settings; if you want them both, change the name of the one you already have by putting the version number at the end of its name in Utilities, and install the other one, it will be installed additional not over.

Apple TV painfully slow buffering HD files from iTunes over WiFi

When using Apple TV over WiFi to access my iTunes library everything works well EXCEPT when the video is an HD format file.   I convert using SmartConverter to the standard Apple TV setting, and anything that is HD transfers so slowly over to Apple TV that I pause for up to 1/2 an hour (do the chores) and then come back to Apple TV to see that only 15-20 minutes has buffered.
If I connect via Ethernet, it works perfectly well and buffers at a very fast rate so this is ONLY over WiFi and only on files that are HD.
Whilst there are practical solutions (i.e. don't watch HD, or keep the ethernet cable plugged in) that's not the point - I want to watch HD and I don't want an ethernet cable snaking through the house.
I've searched forums and can't see something directly relating to this, so any advice or tips would be really useful.
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, and hat's what I initially thought - I was running a Belkin modem and router which would drop the ADSL connection from time to time, and with the overall generally poor performance of that unit I decided that was likely the problem.
So, I upgraded that, - I now have a Netgear D6300 which is providing me with 60 mbps at the Apple TV, no connection drop outs or hang ups. I've also changed my ISP from a reseller to a major provider in order to get a more stable overall service (not that that should impact the iTunes to ATV over WiFi)
But the ATV still buffers HD files so slowly.
Using ATV I can stream plenty of material over wifi - Netflix in HD, YouTube in HD, and all other devices around the house (iPads, MacBooks, laptops etc) all stream content over wifi, share the iTunes Library all over the house.   Watching non HD tagged movies/tv shows from iTunes is also running well.
So I'm pretty sure it's not the wifi, unless there's some setting I need to adjust ?

Voice Over Wifi Issue: random service interruption

Hello,
I have implemented a Voice over Wifi solution based on WLC 4404, AIR-LAP 1131G and CP-7921G. The Security mode deployed is WPA PSK. I have a random interruption on wireless access witch cause the CP 7921G to lose connectivity to the CUCM, even if the Phone is near to the AP and does not move. What can be the cause of the problem. Thank you in advance.
Best Regards
Houichi Nizar

Hi,
we are experiencing the same issues.
The VoWifi design guides (i.e. TPC, DCA, Media, EDCA, WMM, QoS) have been followed setting up the Controllers.
Tested WLC4402 / WLC4404 with firmware versions 4.2.207 and 7.0.116.
Experiencing the issues on 7921G (firmware 1.3.4SR1) and 7925G phones (firmware 1.3.4SR2 and 1.4.1SR1).
The access points used are 1242G with a mix of AIR-ANT1728 and AIR-ANT24020V-R diversity antennas.
It is a warehouse environment. Phones are very near to access points.
We only use 802.11b/g for wireless phones and data clients.
The only issue I found is the cell size which is small and AP transmit power is low.
Auto RF and Auto DCA is enabled. AP power levels are 5, 6 or even 7 in areas with a lot of access points.
We have a high density b/g clients on some areas in the warehouse and added some access points to seperate the AP load.
Kind regards,
Rob Vreede.

Email over wifi at work

I'm having some issues getting email to work on my iphone over wifi. When I am at home, everything works using my wireless network. When I'm at work however, Safari, Youtube and Google Maps work great (really fast actually)...however my email (which is set up for gmail) won't connect to the server.
Basically it stays stuck on "checking for mail". Sometimes it will stay there indefinitely...other times, after a few minutes, it will give a message about the connection to pop.gmail.com failing. It also won't send email. It stays stuck on "sending..." for a few minutes then says "Cannot Send Mail. The connection to the server smtp.gmail.com" failed."
The main difference between my wireless network at home and at work is that in order to use the internet on my iphone at all at work, i first have to go to an internal website in safari and enter a user name and password. I did ask one of our IT guys and he told me that wireless account is in the DMZ so it shouldn't be blocking any of the ports.
I don't get much (usually none at all) signal for at&t in my office. However, if I go somewhere that I get signal and turn off the wifi, everything works fine. It sort of sounds to me like it's trying to use EDGE just for email, but really I have no clue.
Any ideas?

Man was I glad to find your post. I have been having the exact problem since yesterday using Network Sharing (wifi) from my imac to both my iphone and mbp. I thought it was a .mac problem because they have been having issues and .mac is the only mail account I have on iphone and mbp.
I had been using it successfully with all options checked in the advanced pane of the firewall settings, that is udp, logging, and stealth. So when I saw your post I turned off the firewall, sent a test mssg, and it worked. Turned firewall back on, sent another test mssg, and it still worked. Then it stopped working again! I posted in the ".mac on your desktop forum" earlier today and sent two mssgs to support.
I only recently learned of Network Sharing and was glad I wouldn't have to get an airport base station just to share wifi with my (then only) MBP. But with this and the fact that Network Sharing only allows WEP and not WPA I guess I will have to shell out the bucks.
Could Network sharing have a limitation of just one device? I never had a problem until I got the iPhone and started using it in addition to the MBP to receive wifi from my imac.
Basically it stays stuck on "checking for mail".
I get this with a home network where I'm using a
computer's built Airport as a wireless router (WiFi)
to share an ethernet internet connection (personal
web sharing). It turns out I can only get email on
the iPhone when the built-in Firewall is turned
off...not acceptable. I probably need to enable some
port, but enabling the available ports with the
built-in firewall does not help. Also found UDP
traffic cannot be blocked to get web access at all.
Might need a more sophisticated firewall, but will
probably just get a dedicated wireless router
(Airport) and then things should work ok. If that
makes sense...

Using iTunes library from an external drive over wifi

Hello Community Peeps!
I'm looking for some advice and hope someone has the same setup that I'm hoping to make.
I currently have an iMac and recently had to replace the screen. As the machine is now out of warranty I'm thinking to sell it on before I get any further problems. I Currently have all my work and entire iTunes library stored on an external drive connected via usb to the iMac.
As a graphic designer i need to be fairly mobile and am thinking about changing my setup to this, so that when i'm in one location I can use a bigger screen and when I need to be out and mobile I can just take my MBP out with me and get by designing on that screen.
I am thinking of getting purchasing;
• The most powerful 15" MBP latest I can afford (probably with 2GB graphics).
• Separate 27" display to connect the MBP to when I am in one location.
• Airport base station (not time capsule) to connect my external drive to via USB to make it a wifi drive.
I already have Apple TV but have been told that in order to have my Apple TV access my iTunes library (on the external hard drive connected to the base station) over wifi I will need the MBP switched on and iTunes open. Thats no problem as long as I can do it over wifi.
I will be using the latest OSX and latest iTunes.
I have no since been told by a friend that iTunes has glitches in it and will be unreiable inaccessing my library on the hard drive over wifi.
So my question is, does anyone else have this kind of setup and what is their experience on itunes accessing it's library stored on what is effectively a wifi drive.
And advice gratefully received!
Thanks

That won't get your your "library". Your library, in essence, is (was?) a file called library.itl in your iTunes folder. This is a database with a listing of which media files you have and where they are, long with playlists, ratings, and a bunch of other things (which artwork goes with which album). If all you have on the external drive are the media files then when your old computer died it took the library.itl file with it.
What are the iTunes library files? - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1660

If you want your full library listing back then you will have to recover it from your bakup drive (which is why you have it). Alternatively you can create a brand new library file, add the media to it, and start new.

Ipod touch inappropriately synching over wifi

I've got a 4th gen iPod touch, running iOs 6.1.6 (the latest version). I haven't changed any settings, but in the last couple of days, it's started synching over wifi. I've gone to the settings page, and under Options, "Sync with this iPod over Wifi" is NOT selected. Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it?

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
