Powershell (and only Powershell) can't see network drives.

Having a bit of a strange issue with Powershell today, I went to open a script I had worked on last night and Powershell is telling me that it can't find my H: drive (my personal drive here at work) despite the fact that I'm browsing it just fine with my
computer.
Screenshot with error below - note that the image I uploaded is on that same H: drive, so it seems to be just Powershell!

Did you perhaps start your Powershell session with "Run as Administrator"? Even when logged on to an admin account I find that running powershell as admin with the same account causes it to be run in a process separate from the interactive session. As if
it were running under different credentials, or at least using its own security token.
If I need to access my home folder or other network shares normally available, I must then map them in that session.

This appears to be exactly what the issue is. How would you recommend manually mapping my personal drive, then, with new-PSdrive? (and if yes, what would the syntax be?)
Thank you.

  • Can't see network drive attached to AirPort

    Hi All
    I'm a newbie Mac user (just got my MacBook Pro last Thursday, in fact-- OS X 10.5.7). While I've got most of my issues doped out, I'm running into a problem connecting to a network drive that's plugged directly into my AirPort Extreme. I have three Windows systems (running XP and Vista) that can attach to the drive with no problem, but I can't figure out how to mount the drive under OS X.
    If I use the Finder and select the router under "Shared", the Finder just spins with the message "Connecting..." for ages until it times out.
    If I try to attach to a server, that doesn't work-- I've tried all the protocols in various flavors. Everything times out. I do get the message that the server or password is incorrect, but I never see a prompt for a password, so I am not sure what's going on there.
    In short, I'm stumped. When I open up the AirPort utility, and view the disk, the drive is attached-- it has a name, and it gives the correct statistics on used/free space. When I go to File Sharing, the checkbox for Enable File Sharing is clicked.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Well, I'm stumped. I spent an hour on the phone with Apple support-- they ran through the scenarios I had already been through, and they came up with nothing useful. I ended up taking a second 160gb HD that was formatted NTFS, and formatted if for HFS+. This drive was visible through Finder. I took the same drive, formatted it for FAT32 and, surprise, surprise, NOTHING VISIBLE.
    The "just works" philosophy is OK, but it's bunk when it comes to network drive support. I'm doubting the wisdom of this purchase now.
    $2500 for a computer that can't connect to a network drive that can be seen by an $500 Dell laptop?
    The issue simply seems to be this: put a FAT32 drive on another box, and it can be shared by Macs and Windows boxes.
    Put that same FAT32 box on an AirPort Express, and my Mac is BLIND. It can't see the drive.

  • Lightroom can't 'see' Network drive

    Ok, for the past two years of using lightroom I've had my RAW files stored on an xserve RAID that's networked to my editing station.   Nothing about this set up has changed and has worked very well until Monday (that was a monday for sure)
    Monday, after installing the x-rite color checker passport plugin, I decided to reboot my machine as it was getting sluggish having just worked on several large files in Photoshop.  Lightroom wanted to do its weekly catalog backup so I let it.   Fast forward several hours later, lightroom was locked up for sure.  So I had to force quit and restart.
    Upon restart lightroom gave me ?  on most of the folders on my network drive, only one folder was showing normal.  I checked the drive and permissions everything is fine there.   I tried one of my many catalog backups with the same results.     I didn't have time to monkey around so I erased lightroom prefs and folder in app support and proceeded to re-install lightroom.    After I had the same result.  At this point I also noticed on the import screen it only saw that one folder on the drive...    At that point I made an entirely new catalog based on just this years images(24k or so compared to 43k in my other catalog) and left that going overnight.  everything imported fine and created preview images, however this brand new catalog has the same issue!
    please help! 
    Note, I've just tried lightroom on another machine and it sees the folders fine.

    interesting,  
    When I made the new catalog there was just the one folder in 'Select a source'  for that network drive(there are 12 folders on the first level of that drive) when I made the new catalog, the only way I could add images was by dragging and dropping them on the lightroom icon in the dock.   As well only that one folder was available in the 'destination'.  
    Today now all the folders I imported yesterday via drag and drop are available in the source and destination areas.   Such odd behavior, since the 'new' catalog is still having the issue I made a new test one and imported just a small number of images and it seems to be working, both through the import dialog selecting the source and drag and dropping.
    Going to restart my computer just to be sure it continues to function properly.   If so, I guess it is half fixed enough to be usable. I would prefer to know the underlying cause and a better fix for this since I no longer have use of my old catalogs even though I've diligently backed them up and there are some edits I've done that are in the catalog and not saved in the DNG file. I can't save that info if the program can't 'see' the files when using those catalogs. 

  • PC can't see network drive

    I have a drive connected to my Airport Extreme as a music server for my iTunes.
    My MacBook and my G4 can connect to the networked hard drive with no problem but I have a PC running Windows XP that doesn't see it. Not in any of the methods listed here -
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308582
    The PC DOES see the AE because it is using that to get onto the net. How can I force the PC to see the drive connected to the AE ?
    Thanks

    Do you have Bonjour for Windows installed on the PC? That is required to access the drive. See http://www.apple.com/airportextreme/specs.html

  • Adobe Acrobat X Pro can't see Network Drives, unlike rest of Adobe Software

    I can't open pdfs in any of my three network drives because my Adobe Acrobat software does not list them as existing drives!
    I need some help.  I'm on Windows 8, and this problem just began last week.  It had been working just fine.

    Hi chthao,
    How frustrating! Since you got Acrobat as part of CS6, let's start with the troubleshooting tips in this document: Doesn't launch after 30 days | Installed as part of a CS6 suite.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • Can't See Network Drive

    Can I use Time Machine to back up to a NAS? I can see the NAS with every other app but not in Time Machine? It seems to be looking for a Time Capsule only. Is that the only backup device that will work with it?

    The only supported destinations for Time Machine are:
    1. A directly attached internal or external drive/partition.
    2. A drive directly connected to another mac running 10.5 on the same local network.
    3. A Time Capsule
    4. A drive connected to an Airport Extreme base station should work, but is not supported officially.
    Anything else is unsupported by Apple, although there are some "hacks" that claim to make NAS drives work:
    http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20080420211034137&query=time%2Bmach ine%2BNAS
    Also, HP recently introduced a piece of hardware that can be used (starts at about $700, I think)

    Yes. Reinstall iTunes. If that is the point at which you stopped trying the support suggestions then it makes sense to me, that you move on to the next suggestion and if reinstalling iTunes is the next suggestion, so be it.
    However ....  I too have issues that arise out of the blue with my iPad being recognized in iTunes and what I always do and it eventually works is to quit iTunes, restart my MacBook, and reboot my iPad.
    Rebooting the iPad is the last thing that I do and only if I have no success with quitting iTunes and restarting the Mac. It may take a few tries to work, but if you are that dead set against reinstalling iTunes, then give it a try.

    You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature or another one turned on.
    Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver and any other ones off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

  • I installed Prokit 7 upgrade and now I can't see any of my type 1 fonts when in Indesign or Photoshop

    I installed Prokit 7 upgrade today and now I can't see any of my type 1 fonts when in Indesign or Photoshop. Not sure if the upgrade did it, but it seemed to coincide with the problem. I am a graphic artist spend all day everyday using these programs, hardly ever have a font problem. Anyone have a similar problem?

    I reinstalled Prokit 7 upgrade and it did not fix the problem.
    I put my fonts in user/library/fonts, where I have always put them and when I am in any Creative suite app. the only fonts visible in the font list are open type and TT fonts. No type 1 fonts appear in the list even though I have them in the fonts folder. They do not appear in fontbook either.

  • I downloaded a movie on one of my computers, and yet I can't see it in my purchases and I can't download it on any other devices. Any suggestions?

    I downloaded a movie on one of my computers, and yet I can't see it in my purchases and I can't download it on any other devices. Any suggestions?

    Films will only show in your library if you've downloaded it on that computer or copied it from another computer. You checked the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the store homepage to see if it shows there for redownloading on that computer
    If it doesn't show there then you can copy it over from the computer that you downloaded it on e.g. via home sharing : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 (that page refers specifally to music, but it works for other content types as well).
    Or you can right-clidck (control-click on a Mac) on the film in the iTunes library that it is on and select 'show in explorer' ('show in finder') and copy it to, for example, a flashdrive, and use that to copy it onto the other computer's iTunes library (File > Add To Library)

    Thanks Kurt!  I had tried all that and had tried closing both programmes from the application monitor, but SyncServices Agent refused to close.  I tried closing Launchd which is their mother application, but that just caused the screen go go blank.  In the end the two programmes let themselves be closed next time I tried the installation process so all was well.  Thanks for your help!
