NSS2000 lost shares.... again

Some time ago it looked that my NSS2000 was empty, even though the nss didn't mention any problems. Just to make sure, I replaced both disks and started all over.
At this point, I am glad that I didn't throw away those disks because now, at this moment, with the new disks, I'm having the same problem again. They are now in the nss for about 6 months.
Even though the nas tells me it is for 25% used, the shares are all gone and after reading other posts, there is still no solution given on this community.
I allready tried to add a new share, like it is mentioned as a possible solution in another post. This doesn't work because the nas tells me that there is't any room left for a new share. "No space left on volume to create share".
I sold two of these nss2000 machines to professional clients and they (and I) can't afford losing their data, so please give a solution on how the data on the disks can be visible again.
Hope someone can help.

Hi Wilhelm,
I am having the same problem. Or very similar. And, no, I don't have a solutions. Same as you, looked everywhere without any luck. Cisco, lets just say that I have nothing good to say about their: NAS, routers, switches, or even, their customer service... nothing good to say of anything cisco.
As for your data, it will still be there. But, surely, there will be downtime and lots of work getting it back and operational as you had it. This is also my problem. I don't need or what to go thru the 'recovery' exercise as I mention on the post https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/4012351#4012351
Doing this, means having another set of disks of same or greater capacity to copy files over to, then rebuild the NSS, its shares, its users (maybe you have a config backup). And then copy files over again.
1_ lots of time required, as TBs of files don't copy over in minutes, not even hours; possibly days depending on the speed of your computers.
2_ The one time I did this, I then had issues on some files/directories permisions.
Hope this helps.
If you found a solution, quicker than what I say here. Please, pass it on to me.
Thanks!

Px4-300d, no gui access, stuck 95%, lost shares, unstable

Hello,
i'm having a TON of issues with a px4-300d unit with 2x1tb drives:
1) with sw 4.0 (cant remmber the exact subversion) webgui stops responding after random days, but otherwise unit still is accesible
2) snapshots simply stopped working(generated) months ago when webgui stopped working, last ones are from september, in fact one of the snapshots made itself into a public share!
3) yesterday afternoon uniot could not be accessed anymore, after a powercylce it gets stuck in 95%, following another thread i removed disk 1 and it booted, but it lost ALL shares(in webgui, if you go to shares it stays there for a minute then empty) but i can see the volumes in the disk management.
Powercycled then readded drive 1, booted ok started rebuilding, same, no shares.
upgraded to 4.1.104.31360, i completed setup wizard yet status keeps telling me i need to complete setup :/.
Shares are STILL empty AND i have no "add" button or anything, it just stays there.
Checked drive status there's no smart failure or reallocs, dmesg also is not showing any particular error.
now it's rebuilding the array but i have no way to create shares or anything else
This is a RMAed unit from february 2014(prev unit failed similar to this one, but instead of losing the shares, it lost all DATA inside them, after debugging it turns the internal usb flash drive was corrupted).
OFC the unit is now out of warranty...
All in all so far it's more reliable to put data on a floppy drive than on this unit, it fails in the most basic of functions which is to safely keep data, confidence in this model unit is zero

Wesley,
it's raid 1
i checked it in the support log package for smartctl
188 is not present, the other 2 values are at zero on both drives.
Drives are Hitachi Ultrastar A7K2000 (the ones that came with the nas itself).
After the reconstruction is complete i did a fs check and rebooted, shares ae definititely still gone but i can't create new ones!
when i press the create shaes it stays there in "waiting" for a minute then the share dialogs apear, i select the volume i want and create a "test" share then the gui stopped responding, i reopened it, went to shares, nothing, create new share "test" and it tells me "A Share already exists with the name 'test'." Yet nothing is there and if i browse via SMB or FTP nothing is there
i need to fix this urgently!

Help, I've lost Help (again)

Hello
I'm sorry, I've posted this question before, but seem to have lost the replies now these Discussion Boards have been redesigned (very nice Apple, thanks).
Basically when I launch Help in Finder, nothing happens. A window opens with nothing in it.
Does anyone have the link which tells me which files I need to delete to bring it back again? I've tried seaching the Forum but aren't getting anywhere. And if you can tell me how to stop it happening regularly, then even better :-))
Thanks in advance.

2. Trash the /Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.helpui folder.
In some cases, apparently the OS will complain that this folder is in use & won't let you trash it, even if Help Viewer isn't running. If so, try renaming it instead, to "com.apple.old.helpui" for example. After log out or restart a replacement will be created & then you can trash the old one.
I have no idea why this works when the straight-to-trash method doesn't, but it is the Apple-suggested remedy for Help Viewer problems of this nature.

Keynote presentation sharing with iworks how can I share again?

Hi I have shared a presentation with iWork succesfully, if I try and share it again with a new audience I get a pop up asking me if I want to replace the existing presentation. I don't, as it takes so long and the original recipients then can't access it again. But it won't let me share the existing one. can anyone help? it's so frustrating!

Read the blog post File Sharing: Snow Leopard And Windows 7. It's 7 pages long but it does work.
On a side note. Some Vista, 7 machines can have strange file sharing issues. If you run into a problem connecting to a Vista or 7 machine with 10.5 or 10.6 then you should read the Microsoft document How to Enable the Windows Vista Network Map. Believe it or not this works if all else fails in sharing to a Vista or 7 machine.

Lost music again!!!

Hi All,
Right I have managed to find the apporiate Quicktime (without an upgrade) and now have itunes working again.
However, my music is gone of course
When I store - available downloads, nothing happens, when i plug in my iphone, no music copies back now i do have a back up of some of my purchases, however the more recent stuff I have purchased hasnt downloaded, i think my mac is causing me too many problems now a days and almost feels like a PC.
I am tempted to just go back to a PC.
Grrr.... Any suggestions please anything. Thanks

Hi Sarah34 -
You're NOT alone. The same thing happens to me routinely. I may not be able to specifically solve your problem, but I can tell you what I've learned:
1. You can't just move files with "Finder" in iTunes like you do with other data elsewhere on your machine. iTunes is a database unto itself, and if you ever change the directory structure or file location with Finder, then iTunes is "lost" and can't find its files. The good news is that your music isn't actually "gone," it's still on your drive but iTunes just can't see it.
2. Any change you want in iTunes should be made from within iTunes. That way, the iTunes database knows where the music is.
3. The way that most people fix your problem is to open the iTunes preferences panel and then go to the "Advanced" tab. There is where you'll find the path where iTunes expects to find your media. Correct that path and iTunes should find your media again.
4. I agree with you wholeheartedly that iTunes feels more like a PC than any other part of the Mac experience. Hopefully iTunes 11, which is supposed to release in the next few days, will fix that.
If you keep having problems, you can call AppleCare or you can make a free appointment at your local "Genius Bar" where they have a fairly good track record of being able to not only fix problems like yours but also of being able to explain to you why it happened in the first place.
Good luck!

Lost identity, again...

This has happened so often that I lost count, but again my user name is messed up in the Premiere Pro forums.
My user name now looks like: Harm Millaard-qz01ws. My profile is messed up as well and my picture disappeared. It always happens during weekends and resetting it to normal will usually only be accomplished by tuesday after I have complained.
Often this also means that counters are reset as well and that the new messages on a forum now include everything that I have already read.
When can you get rid of this Jive crap. It is bad that your servers are down so often and cause serious delays and posting problems, but this forum software is so crappy , one can almost say the only reliable thing about it is that it causes problems with fantastic reliabilty. Not something to be proud of. Maybe you ought to have a look at the forum software used in your own pre-release community.

Sometimes it just fixes itself. I was away over the weekend and cannot take any credit for fixing it.
We are not sure we believe you, John. You have said that a number of times now, first to me more than a year ago. That excuse is becoming a bit threadbare.

NSS4000 Lost shares

NSS4000. Two disks in RAID1 config. Shome shares created inside de RAID.
The RAID got degraded yesterday (drive failure) and I've rebuild the RAID using the web interface (edit the raid, add the failed disk to the raid). After that the shares are gone. Any chance to recover the lost data?
Thank you

I didn't replace the disk. After the drive failure reported in the log the RAID1 was running in degraded mode, but the "faulty" disk (not faulty really) was reported as online. I went to RAID management, pushed the edit button and added the disk. The RAID began resyncing and I went away.
I dont know if it's related to, but the next time i accessed the NAS the shares were not there.
Regards.

Lost shares/lost data My Book Live

Hello, On my MBL I created three shares a long time ago, with three users (password protected). Now and then I had trouble accessing the MBL shares. It prompted for a password but sometimes I couldn't get any further. Probably some network issue. To make everything working better again I deceided to install the latest firmware and remove all the passwords. But the firmware update failed somehow (the UI prompted with a warning that the firmware update couldn't be downloaded). Finally this morning I succeeded installing the firmware manually using the Update From FIle option (after downloading the proper file). New firmware installed and removed passwords. But now it seems some files are corrupted and even one complete share (named Erik) isn't there anymore. Well it's still there, but only 512kb's in size. When I use the WD My Cloud software (latest version 1.0.7.5) I can see all the shares (folders) but in front of the corrupted share the "hourglass" keeps on turning without getting any further. See picture below: So it says it's only 512 kb's in size even though there should be more data in it (I didn't delete anything). My question: does anyone know what could be wrong here with the share and if there's a way to see if I can recover the data in this folder? Thank you in advance

I am having trouble with my Mac Mini's ethernet connection. Defining a new network interface shows no ethernet adaptor. Reloading SL from DVD repaired. But SL update lost ethernet again. Will Lion Fix?

I am having trouble with my mac mini ethernet. It had been working for weeks after an update to SL 10.6.8.
Once it went out and i repaired it by defining a new connection from System Preferences ->Network->(left panel service, +).
But yesterday, after a power up. my ethernet was not working again. I tried this old trick to repair it, but the interface choices
listed for '+' a new service did not include Ethernet any more. And the Utilities->System Profiler->Ethernet Cards shows
no ethernet available.
As a last ditch effort i reloaded my original SL from DVD. (I think it was version 10.6.4 but i could be mistaken on the version).
The ethernet worked! But KeyNote wasn't going to work because apparently the version i purchased depends on 10.6.8.
So I upgraded again to SL 10.6.8 (Plus some other updates like AirPort which i don't use).
Now the Ethernet is not working again. I see the same symptoms as before with the Ethernet seeming not installed.
Is this a problem seen by others?
Would going to Lion fix the problem?
Could AirPort actually be the culprit and not SL?
If i stay with my original SL, would i need to repurchase a version of KeyNote for the older version of SL?

Have you reset the SMC?
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
Wait fifteen seconds.
Attach the computer's power cord.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
While you're at it, resetting the PRAM won't hurt anything and 'might' help is SMC reset didn't work (PRAM does some port control):
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
Something else you might try .... you don't say how you're updating to 10.6.8, however, if you're using Software Update, you might try downloading the 10.6.8 combo update, which contains all updates to 10.6. Sometimes, Software Update doesn't work quite right, and installing the combo update fixes that. Download the update from Apple's download site at http://support.apple.com/downloads/ , using Disk Utility repair permissions, apply the combo update, then repair permissions again.

Audio Reconnect Mismatch with Moved Project a.k.a Lost Sleep Again in Post.

Hello. Thought this might be helpful regarding reconnecting media and leads to a major problem with FCP (from my view) in how the software designates things. I hope this saves headaches for another who might run up against the same problem.
Situation:
I am currently helping out on an hour-long documentary project with another editor. As such, I have been given a copy of the media on a FW drive and the project itself. The other editor’s original media resides on a RAID system so “Reconnect Media” is necessary to cut some of the acts. The video project media has been captured with a Blackmagic card and converted to edit in it’s native 23.976 in DV formatted (offline) files. However, this has no bearing on the audio files as we will see...
Problem:
I have opened the project and of course the Reconnect Media menu comes up immediately (as expected) asking me to re-link the media. The Video portions link up fine and play out correctly. Now there are also imported aiff voice-over files and music which resided in the project bins which need to be re-linked for the sequences to play out correctly.
If try to reconnect them I get a “File Attribute Mismatch: Media Start and End” error. If I choose to continue, it changes the time code Media Start, End and Duration of the files in the project. Obviously this will not do since it throws off the sequences and any editing I do when sent back to the other editor for conform. Audio files have no TC designation (QT shows N/A Frame rate) as far as I know. After trying out a few things I changed my Easy Setup to NTSC 23.98. After doing that, I could import the file.
(NOTE: This is not an issue with the Video/Audio files which will maintain their TC Base Rate no matter what type of project they are imported into, no matter what my Easy setup is.)
To make things worse, let’s say I have been initially working in a PAL project (for example) initially and have imported the audio V.O. files and make a sound edit for the some U.K. client to review (or something). The TC Base time code will be designated 25 since we have a different project frame rate. Then, I go to work on the other project. I now cannot re-link the files since there is a mismatch. Even the workaround does not work. I am seemingly screwed. The next workaround is to be to close the PAL project or I cannot correctly open the V.O. material in the other project. Even if I delete the V.O. clips references in the PAL project, as long as it is open it screws up the re-connect in the other.
I could lay the audio to tape or convert to something that has T.C. before import but I cannot expect every editor or project group I work with to do this. I'm just a freelancer.
Final Comments of Frustration...
I truly wish FCP had a more descriptive import tab when reconnecting data allowing the user more understanding of the process and control. As it stands now, it is very frustrating, potentially causing a world of hurt when projects are being handled my multiple editors on different machines which may have various setups designated. I can only wonder if this would FUBAR shared media projects. Fixing the skip feature would be nice too (highlight multiple files and skip function please instead of skip click, click, click, beach ball etc.).
Similar issues? Opinions of how to improve this? Rebuttals?

Thanks Tom for your input. That is an interesting solution and helps get it sorted out for the project.
However, I would have thought that an existing project (and its existing clips) would override a project preset. My inital thought was I had been given a different versioning of the audio. I telephoned the other editor and according to him, nothing had changed in the project or the media. It was difficult to track down the problem.
I only marked it as helpful (sorry) since this seems more of a workaround for a design flaw in the FCP software. Apple should consider creating a more thorough dialogue box in the re-connect process that would shed more light on the conflict between offline clip and media. In the FCP manual, it states there is a potential of frame rate mismatches but with audio this isn't the case. It should take into account the audio TC rate that was designated originally to the clip (I would think) and warn of a project setup conflict.
Anyways, thanks again. Your expertise is great in your books and on the forums. Now I can get back to editing.

I lost project files, found them and lost them again...

How do you recover lost project files in Aperture? I had them one day and they were gone the next day.

So when you looked in the library tab of the Inspector the projects and albums were not there or do you mean when you looked in a project the images weren't there?
What did the Best Buy associate to to recover what was lost? Knowning that would make this a lot easier.

I had the orange, rectangular FF button in the top left of the home page & lost it again HELP!

What is so strange about the phrase "rectangular, orange Firefox button"??? It is a relatively new feature and you can access several functions by clicking on it....I had it on my window...now it no longer is there....what other details can I give????

Hi ellsler13,
You should take a look at the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-get-firefox-button Firefox Button] Knowledge Base article. It will show you how to turn the button back on. Don't worry, nothing is broken. It is just a setting.
Hopefully this helps!

10.1.2 Lost Colour Again!

Yeah! Thanks a lot everyone....NOT!

Bluetooth - lost connection (again)

There have been many posts on this and I have even offered advice on it before, but I still occasionally lose my Bluetooth connection on start-up for no obvious reason and wondered whether anyone has finally come up with a cure for this. I used to think that it was because I had a USB-1 hub connected, but even after upgrading to USB-2 it still happens. Basically everything shuts down as per normal, but when I restart on some occasions I have no Bluetooth connection (squiggly line across icon). Luckily I only use my Bluetooth keyboard and using the wired mouse I just have to shutdown and restart and all is back to normal. However, I have no idea why this happens. I used to think that it was linked to using things plugged into the hub and the order in which I turned them off before shutting down, but it does it even when I've had a session when nothing plugged into the hub has been used. It's not a huge problem as a shutdown and restart sorts it out, but it would be more of a drag if I was using both Bluetooth keyboard and mouse and had no USB mouse.
Any ideas?

Neil, I have had the same problem, Apple informed me that they know about it, and the fix is simply to restart, as you have found out. The problem is intermittent, sometimes the Bluetooth icon disappears on restart, sometimes it's there. No rhyme nor reason, but just one of those quirks one has to live with. It has nothing to do with hubs or the like, it just happens.
