Missing Mac's

I have set up the remote desktop on 70+ Mac's. When I try to view some of the Mac's they are know where to be found. It is only about 3 in total. Any help?

It isn't stupid but I checked that first. I don't know if its to do with the way I set them up. As the Mac's that don't seem to be on I set up at a later date and used the firewire cable to use the settings off of another Mac. I have also tried deleting the Preference settings. Also I have noticed that there DNS names are replicating PC's within the network.

  • Missing Mac OS X Lion Boot Camp Software drivers

    Dear Community,
    Having just completed a smooth installation of Windows 7 on my 2011 Macbook Pro, I was quite surprised to see that the wireless and ethernet connections didn't work. The computer did not even find any possible connections and I'm missing Wireless Adaptor or any such sort of devices in the device manager.
    Now, my first bet is that I'm missing a driver installation. So after having looked on the internet for some guidance on where to get the drivers, it comes down to me using the installation DVD that's included in the package in which the mac came. But no such DVD came with the package, since Apple has decided not to ship physical DVDs anymore.
    So my question is, how do I get these drivers?
    I see under //support.apple.com/kb/HT4818#12 that the Atheros 802.11 Wireless, Broadcom Wireless and Marvel Yukon Ethernet are all drivers included in the Mac OS X Lion Boot Camp Software, but then why don't I have them then?
    Many thanks for the, hopeful, fine answers!
    Best regards,
    Tim

    But everything else got installed and hardware abstraction, Boot Camp control panel and other drivers and services are now present and running?
    surprised to see that the wireless and ethernet connections didn't work. The computer did not even find any possible connections and I'm missing Wireless Adaptor or any such sort of devices in the device manager.
    Usually you need to establish a wired connection.
    And it is a problem for some, definitely.
    Boot Camp 4.01 or later will enable those devices but you may still need to find appropriate drivers too. I don't know why but audio and graphics are also issues that the user needs to attend to and is not 'spelled out' that you will need those as well.

  • Syncing Issues with ICAL & Missing .Mac Icon... related?

    We have been having problems with our ICal syncing for weeks, to the point where we have just stopped using our ICAL all together.
    But now, my .mac icon, which I use to access my backup database is missing off my computer as well, and also missing off one of the other network computers.
    Are these things related?
    Any updates on when the syncing problems will be resolved?

    As an IT consultant,  i'm in agreement with Mr Utts.    The promise of "it just works" died with Steve Jobs.   Mac OS has been in freefall since 10.5 .    I need a fully functional OS,  not an iPad on my desk.  ( this means YOU Forstall !! )
    Why break Samba ( a standard ),  why break WebDAV ( a standard ), why break CalDAV ( a standard )??    Apple has done ALL of these things and they seem to be doing it on purpose.
    The Apple "ecosystem" is just fine,  but removing functionality as fast as you can, and removing interoperablity as fast as you can...  if Apple products ONLY work within the ecosystem... people can and will leave Apple.    You've already run off the business users by refusing to make a real Server or real Server software.   You ran off the video user with Final Cut Pro X.   Dumbing down (and breaking) the OS is running off the IT User.
    Mac OS used to easily walk the line of "hard core enough for a Unix Guru,  easy enough for your Mom".  Now they just want the Moms.
    And i disagree,  we are ALL "qualified to say what Apple might do about this...",  they will do nothing.   They don't beleive they have made a mistake.  They beleive WE are the problem by stubbornly insisting that things that used to work should continue to work.

  • Firefox No longer Loads - Profile Missing - Mac OS Mavericks

    I have Mac OS Mavericks 10.9
    I attempted to run Firefox, and I got the error "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible."
    I read through the documentation, and I uninstalled Firefox, I also removed the profile.
    /Applications/ - deleted Firefox
    /Library - no firefox
    /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/ - deleted Mozilla and Firefox folders
    Then I downloaded Firefox25.dmg and installed it. I still get the same error. And there is no longer a Firefox or Mozilla folder under the Users/Library folder
    I am using Chrome, as I can no longer use Firefox. So there is no troubleshooting information.

    This happens when there is a profiles.ini file, but the default profiles listed in this file is missing.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    You can use the Profile Manager to create a new profile.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile (in case there is still one) to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

  • Missing Mac OS X install disc 2

    Hello there I have install my iMac I have install disc 1 and after disc one is asking me please insert the Mac OS X install disc 2 witch I don't have is there any other way I can get my iMac back to live thank you

    Okay,
    If you are missing one of the install discs, there are two things you can do.
    You need to contact Apple in order to get OS X 10.4 Tiger or OS X 10.5 Leopard from Apple assuming they still have copies.   Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775  These discs will be replacement OS install discs.  You will need to give the rep your Mac model and serial number and you'll, also, need a credit card as there is a nominal fee of around $18 for processing and shipping of the disc.
    If Apple can't help you, then you can search on sites like Amazon for OS X 10.5 Leopard disc.
    OS X 10.5 Leopard is the last OS X version that you can run on a PowerMac G5.
    Good Luck!

  • Missing Mac Mini Restore DVD disk 2, need to Cancel Installation

    hi, I'm a Mac newbie. I recently bought a mac mini from someone. Unfortunately, I didn't realize at the time that there should be 2 restore dvds instead of just one (I thought the Os X Tiger drop in dvd was the 2nd dvd).
    I'm trying to reinstall the OS X along w/the software b/c I ran into some problems with the Mac mini. But when I get to the screen that says, "please insert Disk 2", I have no disk 2. I can't cancel the installation b/c the Cancel button is grayed out. I tried shut down and restart the computer from disc one directly, but after click through a series of Next buttons, it only leads me to the same screen.
    Now I can't use my Mac mini at all. Short of fork over $40 for a replacement dvd from Apple, is there anyway I can restore to the previous point prior to my attempted installation/cancel the current installation?
    Much thanks in advance.
    Mac Mini 1.25 ghz   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    "is there anyway I can restore to the previous point prior to my attempted installation/cancel the current installation?"
    No, sorry. That is not a feature of Mac OS.
    If you have an Apple retail store nearby head on over there, explain your situation and see if they'd be willing to copy the 2nd disc for you.

  • How I fixed missing mac from sidebar & Back to My Mac

    So I updated to Yosemite, 10.10, and Back to My Mac stopped working for one of them. I scoured the interwebs looking for help and didn't find any so when I stumbled on a solution I figured I would share the steps it took to replicate my success. I also hope someone with more knowledge can weigh in on what's not necessary and what may be a better approach.
    So first off I needed to identify the offending computer(s). If you're like me 1 of my 4 linked computers didn't show up in the sidebar. (Oddly enough the day after I fixed one another dropped out so I needed to follow the steps again and got almost identical results.)

    As you can see Mac Mini 1 is not an iCloud member. I triple checked. Tried turning BTMM and Find My Mac on and off to no avail. Sooo I:
    •Repair permissions
    •Deselect all options in /System Preferences/Sharing
    •/System Preferences/iCloud - Sign out and delete all local content
    •Restart
    •Delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.BackToMyMac.plist
    •Delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.FindMyMac.plist
    •Delete /Library/Preferences/com.apple.FindMyMac.plist.lockfile
    •Delete files in: ~Library/Applications Support/Screen Sharing
    •Restart
    •Wait a few minutes after login to make sure the system has time to settle in. (I have allot of start-up items) Then go to /System Preferences/iCloud Sign back in
    •Wait a few minutes
    •run “dns-sd -B  _afpovertcp._tcp” in command line again. The affected machine should now be listed as an iCloud member.
    I had an issue with iCould and needed to sign out of iCloud a second time, reboot, and log back in a third time to get it all to register properly. I’m not sure if this will be the same for everyone or if I was just impatient. This occurred BOTH times. The very next day my Mac Pro Home, which was working just fine hours earlier, dropped out of being registered. I did register Mac Mini 3 this morning and it's possible that another registered computer caused a conflict but that's just me guessing.
    My home router is still not registering and I'm not sure why. It's the same router that needs to be restarted periodically to give me access to Screen Sharing so that may need to be wiped and re-configured.

  • E2000 Parental control tab missing - Mac OSX Lion

    I am trying to use the Parental Control feature. I can't use Cisco Connect as there currently isn't an update for this router for Mac OSX Lion
    The firmware version in the support site hasn't been updated for ages, and I am running the latest (v 1.0.04)
    The Parental control tab, that is supposed to appear in the web browser interface isn't there. It's supposed to be, but doesn't show up.
    Any ideas why or what the work around might be?
    Thanks

    If you want to use the Parental Control Feature then it will be in the name of Access Restriction instead of Parental Control…
    Cisco Connect 1.4 comes with the latest Linksys routers.  It is compatible with Mac OS X Lion.  This has resolved compatibility issues encountered in the past.

  • Canon paper profiles missing, Mac

    When printing from PS CS5, I no longer see the choices for Canon papers in the print dialog on my Mac Pro. I recently upgraded my computers to Mountain Lion. My laptop still shows the Canon mp620 profiles so I can print from there. If I knew where to find these profiles I could reinstall them on the MP. Thanks.

  • Hit Or Miss Mac Flash Player

    I have wasted an inordinate amount of time trying to find a solution for this...
    I'm working on an Intel iMac, Mac OSX v.10.5.8, browsers Safari 4.0.5 (5531.22.7) and Firefox v.3.6.3. I've carefully uninstalled and reinstalled the latest Mac version of both the Flash and Shockwave players with the recommended Adobe installers and uninstallers, repaired permissions, rebooted, etc.
    The odd part of my mystery is that before this most recent Flash update installation, I never had a problem at ANY site.
    Now, videos play as expected at some sites, like http://youtube.com , but not at all at other sites, like http://vids.myspace.com/
    Perhaps a related new development is that when I enter the fullscreen mode at youtube, the gray-bordered "Pres Esc to exit full screen mode" alert stays fixed in the middle of the screen... very distracting.
    In some cases, I see a blank pop-up screen (whether or not "Block Pop-Up Windows" is selected in Safari's menu) or, as is the case at http://vids.myspace.com — a blank screen with a circular light-gray *snake* chasing its tail clockwise. (I'm beginning to feel much the same trying to remedy this problem.)
    If I CONTROL-click on the blanks for the "Settings" I see the Settings Manager, but it is entirely non-functional. When I try to make changes suggested in the Forums on the Adobe site's representation of that Settings Manager –
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager03.html  I can move the slider value from a "setting other than zero," but the "Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer" checkbox cannot be enabled.
    I installed the recommended flash debugger and got this result from a *no-show* video's pop-up blank:
    Error: Error #2134: Cannot create SharedObject.
    at flash.net::SharedObject$/getLocal()
    at com.jeroenwijering.utils::Configger/loadCookies()
    at com.jeroenwijering.utils::Configger/load()
    at com.jeroenwijering.player::Player/loadConfig()
    A knowledgeable website guru/friend suggested this might indicate a conflict with an earlier flash version, but a thorough search and examination reveals no previous versions lurking anywhere.
    The one remaining item I've removed is the Flash Player folder – user/library/caches/Adobe/Flash Player — which had some items dating back to 2009. It didn't help. Other than that, I'm at a loss to fix this problem.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanx.

  • The Missing Mac

    Hi
    I have a Mac Pro & Mac Book that are connected to Time Capsule. My problem is that I cannot get them to file share, the Mac Book shows up in the finder on the Mac Pro and I can access all my files, but the Mac Pro doesn't show up on my Mac Book.
    I have checked all the settings and they all seem the same.
    What am I doing wrong?
    DB

    One further point is that when I open iTunes on both machines they are able to communicate, the Mac Pro shows the Mac Book Library and the Mac Pro shows the Mac Books!
    Any thoughts welcome.

  • Fonts going missing mac cs3

    hello,
    i have been stuck with this problem for weeks now. i have a
    number of fonts that have gone missing from the font list. I get
    prompted upon opening files (that i previously built in fireworks)
    that the font cannot be found and needs replaced.
    i have uploaded a
    screenshot of font book / the font in illy / the font not in
    fireworks here
    this happens with a number of fonts, not just the one in this
    example. the font in question is installed in the users font
    library and it makes no difference if i move it to the computers
    library.
    any help would be very much appreciated.
    cheers

    hi david,
    Is it possible for you to share that particular font file
    with us (if it's not proprietary)? We can also have a look and see
    whats going wrong there. Also, are you using FWCS3 or CS4?

Maybe you are looking for
