Network Media Player (Noontec V9-T) unable to access network shares on WIN8 Pro

I have just upgraded from Windows 7 home premium 64 bit to Windows 8 Pro 64 bit. After the upgrade, I made sure my video library was shared (both with the homegroup and my username) and that network discovery was enabled file sharing enabled etc etc.
On the Noontec Media centre I can see the workgoup called WORKGROUP. When I click on it I can see the name of my PC. But when I click on the pc name to log in to access the shares within it comes up with a username/pass box comes up. I then put in my username/pass
on the windows 8 pro machine, to which the Noontec receives an error message stating cannot login.
Previously I had enabled sharing with everyone (read only) on windows 7 home and this username/pass dialog box never appeared. Just said successful logon. So i tried sharing video library with "everyone" in windows 8 pro, the unit still can't log on.
I believe this noontec uses Samba. The last updated samba file was named "samba_3.0.23c_mipsel.ipk" when I updated the media players samba about 9 months-a year ago. i have checked the manufacturers website, there has been no further updates released.
Is there a way for me to access network shares from this media centre by maybe installing a new samba server on the windows 8 machine that is compatible with older samba clients? I am not savy with samba clients/servers at all, I just loved the way XP network
shares always seemed to work across multiple platforms... and win7/8 doesn't. Help anyone?

A lot of these media players will not work correctly. If your Video files are stored as .avi, MKV, MP4 etc.. pretty much anything excpet for .ISO, the best way is to use Plex media server on the windows 8 PC. It's free and should allow you to organise files
and libraries as you want.In fact, it's my preferred access method now, as most, smart TVs also support plex and support it well....allowing me to play the files directly in my smart TV, without using the Media players.
In addition if you have an Android tablet or phone, you can (if you want) access your media files from Plex using Media Monkey (free) and simply play them direct to the TV, Media Monkey simply hands the data stream over to the smart TV.
I have a similar set of media players and exactly the same problem with windows 8,8.1, previous shares on versions 7, vist etc..work perfectly. I use a free application on my android phone to remote start my media server/s (via the network card).
Shutter Light - Free monitoring activity and network data, to prevent unwanted sleep during Videos and to ensure the PC goes into sleep mode (disabling windows power management)
Plex simplifies everything and acts as a great central server for all types of devices and can bring media files together from different Directories/Disks, in to one set of Libraries.

I am unable to access intranet on my MacBook Pro 13" with OS X mavericks. Is it possible to use files on the Local Area Network? I use the files on the Local Area Network on my windows computer by typing in the I.P address in the library. Kindly guide me how i can use these files stored over the Local Area Network.

I disabled GateKeeper's automatic blocking of unrecognised developers, and so I was able to install the driver.
The Mobile Connect program is now installed, but the computer still does not recognise the modem.
I also borrowed a USB hub from a friend and it didn't make a difference.

Wired guest access - Unable to access network

Hello,
I've configured two WLC's with the exact same config one of them has working Wired guest network the other one does not.
The only difference in the two I know of is that the one that does not work is connected to a Cisco 3550 switch, the one that works is connected to a Cisco 7600.
The problem is when I connect a computer to the wired guest network I am able to get an IP address from the Internal DHCP server but unable to access the network.
I've tried pinging the gateway's IP and I get no answer.
The Port-channel interface has the correct VLans and the vlans exist on all switches.
If anyone see an error there or might have an idea why this is not working I would appreciate the feedback.
Config follows below..
regards,
Gk

Reset to factory defaults using JL_Cmder. Media card was encrypted, now unable to access mediacard

I bought my 8300 used and was unhappy to see a IT policy was in place. After searching and searching the only way to succesfully remove the IT policy (FULLY) was by restoring the phone to factory default using JL_Cmder. I backed up my data, wiped the device, and restored my data. After I rebooted I started getting an error warning that the media card is encrypted to another device and I am unable to access any of the previously encrypted files. My media card was set to encrypt by Device, and its still the same device, just wiped.
How can I remove the encryption or get my media card to recognize that it is still the same device?

if you have the ability to plug the media card into your PC, copy the data off it. then format it, put it back in device, format it again, then xfer data back over.

Window 8.1 system unable to access network shares via VPN connection

Is there something inherent to Windows 8.1 that prevents it from accessing shares on a domain?
I know that it cannot join a domain, but does that also mean that it cannot access shares which are on a domain?
My problem is that I have several user that are running windows 8.1 that are connecting to our network via a VPN.
The users have domain accounts but their computers as windows 8.1 cannot joined to the domain.
So to access network shares they have to use their domain credentials to create a VPN connection.
Once connected the user can RDP to systems on the domain using their domain accounts, so I know that their user names/passwords and permissions are correct. They can access these systems using the computer name, so I don't feel that I have a DNS issue.
They can see the shares on our file server, but when they try to access their departments shared file, they receive an access denied message. There are a few shares that are completely wide open, shared to all users and all departments but they cannot access
those shares either.
You can ping the file server, from the the client when they are connected to the VPN but you just cannot access any of the shares.
So...
I am thinking that it has something to do with windows 8.1 and not being able to join a domain, but I cannot find anything to explicitly support this thought.
Other users running a variety different OS (windows 7, OSX, Linux) can all access the shares without any problems via the VPN, so I am a little stumped.

I have done some more testing and oddly enough I can map a drive if I use the IPaddress, but not the computer name, when checking the check box "connect using different credentials"and providing they users domain credentials.
This seems to point to a DNS issue, one would think, but I can hit the file share server by name \\fileserver.dev.lan
I can see all the shares, so dns seems to be fine right?
So I don't understand why I can map a drive using do the IPaddress and not the machine name, but yet I can see and ping the server by name?
When I try to create a mapped drive by machine name I receive the following message:
Windows cannot access \\fileserver.dev.lan\all
You do not have permissions to access \\fileserver.dev.lan. contact your network administrator to request access.
But if I use the \\x.x.x.x\all using the very same user and password I get connected with no problem.
This only seems to happen on windows 8.1, which leads me to think that has something to do with OS.
I am thinking about upgrading to windows 8.1 pro, but I don't want to go though the hassle and expanse is the OS is not the problem.

Unable to access Apps on HP Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

Hi guys,
I can print wirelessly and print remotely using the ePrint apps on my iphone and ipad. Until recently, I have been able to access the apps, but this has stopped. I now get the following error message:
"The printer was unable to connect to the server. Chieck your internet connection and try again."
The internet connection is stable and fine. Any ideas?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hello londonlaw,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
Sorry to hear about the recent issue when trying to access apps on your Officejet Pro 8600, I would like to offer a few suggestions that may help.
Check for updates on the printer, Getting the Latest Firmware and Product Updates.
Power off the printer and ensure the power cord is connected to a wall out let.
Next you want to power reset the router. If it has a power button press that, if not, remove the power cord. Wait 60 seconds and then allow it to power back up. Once router is fully on, power up the printer.
Try to access an app, if it works there is no need to continue. If it doesn't, try the next suggestion.
Refer to this Thread answered by a colleague of mine happytohelp01 : Efax 7510 still won't work after turning off/on ePrint several times. Follow the steps to setup a Manual I.P and DNS for the printer over the network. The steps will be the same, if not very similar for your printer as the one in the above post.
Try to an app once done, if still unable, continue below.
Go back to the above Thread, rather than using the DNS suggested try this set; Primary DNS Server : 209.244.0.3 & Secondary DNS Server : 209.244.0.4.
Try to access an app, if the feature is still not working you will need to call HP's Cloud Support team. If you live in the USA/Canada, 1-855-785-2777. If you live outside the USA/Canada, click HERE to find the Technical Support number for your country/region.
I hope this has helped, if it has, please let me know what step helped.

Windows machines unable to access smb shares

I know many people are having problems with smb on osx server, but my issues seems very basic, so I will try to ask for help here.
Basically, I have set up a single folder for sharing on a Mac Mini running OSX Mountain Lion Server. Directory services are provided by a WIndows 2003 server, and I have joined OSX Server to that, and am able to see all AD users and groups correctly. I have checked the boxes specifying I wish to share as afp, smb and webdav and also made shares accessible to guests.
Now, if I use a mac client, I can correctly browse the afp and smb shares, and the latter work via finder and smbutil as expected, including access via AD users, connection and file transfer.
If, instead, I use a windows client (I tried both Win7Pro and WinXP), while being able to ping the osx server machine, if I try to "explore" (entering \\hostname in explorer) the shares I get a "Network error: impossible to access ..." (approximate translation, sorry ). I tried both using the hostname and the ip address, always getting the same result.
If I try via prompt with "net view \\hostname" I get a System Error 53 (Unable to find network path).
Does anyone know if I am doing anything wrong?
Thanks
Christian

I have done some further testing, and I can report that occasionally, I am able to connect from a windows 7 professional machine by issuing the following command:
net use z:\\hostname\share /user:DOMAIN\username
mostly this command returns a 53 system error, but sometimes I am asked for the user's password and am then able to access the shared folder for a brief time.

Unable to access a share - beachball...

Colleague has raised an issue - he is unable to access a shared folder on our server.
He does Command K, enters ip number of server, clicks connect,
enters name and password
Gets a window offering volumes to mount - as soon as he clicks on one gets 'beachball of death'...
I can login from another site using his name and password and sail through to volumes OK...
He can Ping the server's ip number successfully...
Any thoughts on reason?
Any solutions...
Thanks - he's on 10.4.6 (probably should upgrade to 10.4.11), server is 10.4 os x server

If you can access the site through www.megaproxy.com/freesurf/ or a similiar web proxy service, then Verizon is giving you access. The Web Host probably has an out of date filter.
He can either add your subnet to his network, or you can simply turn off your modem for four hours (there is a lease time on the ip address that doesn't expire for 4 hours) and then turn it back on. I usually tell folks to do this at night when they go to bed. Basically just unplug the modem and don't plug it back in until the morning.
OR if you want it right away, you can try chat support or Call Verizon, and don't bother telling them your problem AT ALL. just ask for tech support and ask if they can release your IP Address, or break the dhcp lease.
you should have your modem powered off when they do that, and don't plug it back in for AT LEAST 3 to 5 minutes before plugging it back in.
If you plug it in immediately, then you run the risk of that IP address coming right back to you, but if you give it a few minutes, it will most likely go back into the dhcp pool and get assigned to someone else, and you will be in perfect shape to get a new ip address.

Unable to access DFS shares when server 1 goes down

Hello all,
I have a test domain I am building in order to prepare for a new domain we are going to create. We currently have an SBS 2003 that is reaching the end of its' life. We are going to start fresh. I have setup domain-based DFS along with DFS folder replication
for each of the folders. So far, all is working ok, up to this point.
Replication is occurring as it should and my Hyper-V test machines can connect to the mapped drives via the DFS namespace.
\\domain\namespace\target folder
However, once I shut down the primary server (SRV01) I am no longer able to access the shares. The namespace servers tab on the center window of the namespace MMC, has both SRV01 and 02 listed. I receive no errors except "Unable to connect to \\domain\namespace\target
folder because it is unavailable". It is not "failing over" to the secondary available server.
Once I power SRV01 back up, connectivity is then restored to the folders and mapped drives. Is there something I should check for, or am missing?
Any and all insight is appreciated.
Dario Garcia

Hi,
1. Run DFSUTIL /pktinfo to see if the referral target is still the primary server when it is actually down.
If so, run DFSUTIL /pktflush to flush the cached information and try to access the namespace again.
2. If 1 cannot help, whether DNS is also configged on primary server? If so, as it is down,
\\domain may not be recognized.

WRT54GL unable to access wired shares or printer on PC from wireless iMac

The subject line applies to a new router on which I can access the internet ok both from the wired PC and the wireless iMac.
The problem is this router is unable to access the PC shares or printer from the iMac. Pls note, "this router"!
I have an identical WRT54GL v1.1, same firmware, setup is identical on both, one works with no problem, but the new one has the above problem..
I have spent a day on it and its in line for return on Monday, but I still hope for a miracle tip which may sort it out :-)
On the good one 'Port scan' of the PC from iMac gives me:
Port Scan has started ...
Port Scanning host: 192.168.1.100
Open TCP Port: 139
Open TCP Port: 445
while the faulty one gives me:
Port Scan has started ...
Port Scanning host: 192.168.1.100
..and thats it! No contact.
Yes, the router is set up for 'Lan & Wireless' (no way to change that setting to 'WAN only' it seems, it bounces back to 'Lan & Wireless')
I have btw done a Factory Reset on it (twice) with no joy.
Any ideas anyone?
Mvh

My first guess for this kind of problem would be a software firewall on the computer. The firewall will detect where it is connected and configures the settings depending on the location. Two routers are two different "locations". Try turning off the firewall or even better deinstall it as often some parts of those software firewalls are still active when turned off.
The only option that does affect access of wireless clients to the LAN is the "AP Isolation" option on the "Advanced Wireless Settings". That should be off.
Another thing you could try if you like: do a configuration backup on the working router and restore it to the faulty one. Maybe there are some settings that don't match and that you cannot configure through the web interface. Have you ever used a 3rd party firmware on either of the routers?

Move Networks media player for ABC shows on Safari

Hello, I have been trying to install the plug in needed to watch ABC's shows but have been unsuccessful thus far. I have tried from the ABC site after it prompts to do so and also from the Move Networks site. Sometimes I can get the installer downloaded and when I run it appears to install but I am still unable to view the full length episodes. When I click on the full length episode it shows that it is installing but then will just stay there continuing to try to install. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and also tried Kwik Time Kirks fix (new user install) and always get the same result. I'm thinking there is a setting somewhere that I need to change but don't have the know how... If anyone has had a similar issue or knows a fix I would be very grateful. Thank you for any reply.
I am running OS X 10.6.1 on a Mac Pro 13 using Safari.

Same issues on a G5 running 10.5.7, a MB running same, and a MBPro running 10.6. Both Safari and FF3 give me the same issue... it gets stuck on the "We've detected you have a Mac. Hold on while we download and it will start automatically" ... but it never does.
I've checked the Plugin folder to see if the move.plugin ever gets installed, but it does not. I've complained to ABC to no end.

Unable to access network shares

In our enterprise environment we have a home share with approx 20 folders viewable to all staff with different folder accessible to different departments. One of our users has an issue when switching from a wired to wireless network connection
on his laptop he is no longer able to view/access the folders from the home share and can only view/access one particular folder. This also happens when he is at home accessing via VPN.
TIA for any ideas as to what may cause this.

Is there a problem with Flash Player? I am unable to install past 25% on MacBook Pro.

I have downloaded Flash Player. It will open and try to install. But then stops at either 30% (once) or 25% (4 additional times). I have restarted my computer, disabled Kaspersky, closed Safari and get the same results each time. I have visited the trouble shooting site with no luck. The only thing I have not done is uninstall/reinstall....but what a pain to have to do that! lol
I am running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hello,
We are aware of Flash Player hanging at 25% (download phase) on OS X 10.10 and are working to resolve the issue. If you have anti-virus protection enabled, please disable the anti-virus protection, which appears to be interfering with the download process. Alternatively, you can use the offline installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the 'Still having problems' section.
If you don't have anti-virus protection enabled, you're issue is different and we'd appreciate more information (please see Read Before Posting: How To Get A Useful Answer To Your Question for information to provide.
