SDXC network share Mountain Lion

Hello,
Since I have an SSD drive where osx 10.8.4 is installed and is really small, I bought a Sandisk SDXC of 64gb and inserted it to the SD card slot, I'm thinking to use it as a storage drive but I cannot seem read/write on my windows7 PC, I have the exact same username/password on the pc and mac and other shared folders which are not in the SD card can be read and written fine but not the ones on the SD card.
apple, can you help out? Is there a fix for this?
I don't like surprises and wasting my money on unexpected unsupproted details when allegedly apple says it should work, its a mounted drive, it should be able to read and write over the network wont it?.
Please help I intend to use these equipment on a work enviroment!
Thanks in advance.

Since it is plugged into the mac format it mac extended (journaled) and see if you can then access it. Any drive, storage device, physically connected to the mac should be formatted in the mac os x format. The reason you are getting that error is because fat32 and exfat formatted drives have no permissions set on it and can't have premissions set on it. fat32 and exfat don't allow that like the mac format or windows ntfs. So the mac stops access to it from over a network.
Once formatted in the mac os x format, and shared withb full read & write permissions for your username, you should be able to access it from any other networked computer, mac or windows pc.

How to mount network share on lion permanently

I want to know how to mount a network share from my NAS on mountian lion.
I have seen and tried the suggestions about using command+k or the "go connect to server" and mounting that way so the password for the share is put into the keychain, then dragging the now mounted share to the system preferences user login items.
However this isn't satisfactory. It causes windows to pop up for each share that I have when logging in.
What I Want is for the share to appear as a mounted hard drive in the left navigation column of the finder window. I'd also like to be able to make a shortcut to the share on my desktop (or put it in my dock bar). If it shows up under devices that is perfection okay too, just so it's there somewhere logical.
The pop up windows simply clutter up the desktop, and if they are closed, then the share is closed too, and then there is a manual process of having to use the very tedious command+k or go connect to server method to connect again.
I need them to be able to click and open the share. I don't need them wasting time putting in share paswords and the link over and over.. the share should just be there for them as they work through the day. And if they close the folder/window, then it should be easy to get back to it.
This is possible on windows and I want these mounts to work the same way.
note: my NAS uses smb

That should work. You could try deleting the passwords in Keychain associated with it and try it again.
Another route: Create Applescript:
Select the network drive and get info on it. Copy the server address. Open up Applescript Editor in the Utilities folder and create a new script. Type in mount volume, add space, "paste server address within quotations", and save as application to your documents. Run it from within applescript editor to verify it works. When it asks for a passwork, save it in Keychain.
Under system preferences/accounts/login items, click the + sign to add and select the saved application.

Unable to connect to new wireless network in Mountain Lion with Photosmart C4780

I have a Photosmart C4780 and have just upgraded my imac to Mountain Lion. HP are not providing new drivers for my printer as they say it will work with Mountain Lion. I have downloaded software updates. However, I have just changed my wireless network as I have a new broadband provider but am unable to connect to it. My problem is that the set up assistant software provided which I used originally to set up does not work with Mountain Lion.
Any ideas please?

I have solved my problem, I've bought an Epson. It works perfectly. If HP can treat their customers with such disinterest and contempt I don't want to give them my money.

Can't search network shares in Lion

We've got several Macs that connect to a Windows Server 2003 network share. I've tried connecting via cifs and smb I still can't search folders on the network share. Browsing and pulling files over to the Mac work fine. This happens with all the Macs that are using Lion. It worked perfectly on Snow Leopard. Any tips on how to get this working?

This has been a confirmed issue/feature with Lion. There is a long discussion going on since months in a parallel discussion:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18255896#18255896

WHY cant I print on a NETWORK with MOUNTAIN LION??

I am NOT able to print ANYWHERE Across a network whether to a mac or pc on the network......
Direct conneciton via USB is fine.

Well...before installing Mountain Lion...had no issues. Always asking for Password confirmation now and no passwords work.

I am so disappointed with Networking Stability in Mountain Lion

I have been using Macs since '95
I have Mountain Lion installed on at least 6 CPUs.
The latest CPU to the collection is the Retina MacBook Pro...
The Retina wont stay connected to a network for longer than about 10 minutes.
Then connections stops althought the Finder STILL displays the network shares.
If I turn on Bluetooth on the Retina I cannot connect to anything.
Generally it is impossible to have a reliabe network using Mountain Lion
At times it is blazing fast (1% of the day) the rest is just filled with network drops and slowdowns.
I use the Airport Extremes for my network.
I have tried anything.. Using another router, another W-LAN router, altering MTUs disalbling bluethooth and ALL peripherals.
New Network Locations. You name it..
NOTHING I do will render a network with even 40% stability.
This is the first time in almost 20 years that I am contemplating switching to Windows.
Please --- If someone has ANY idea of what is going on this most erratic OS that Apple has ever release, please tell me...
I am at a complete loss here.
Thanks

You are not helping at all. You are venting.
Would have thought someone with your amount of posts would at least have had one constructive suggestion,
Please refrain from adding posts to this thread. I am not reading them nor am I taking them seriously.
And man, if NO ONE would have those problems WHY on earth does THIS follwing thread have 32,000 VIEWS....
Get your facts straight.... PLEASE

Do you have them all set to the same channel or something?
Ehm... goto an apple store and you will find their network to be highly erratic as well...
Mountain Lion is NOT relible when it comes to networking. At all..
Nonsense. I don't go to an Apple Store all that often. My Mountain Lion machines work fine in all other places.
Even the Apple Care folks told me "we are AWARE of problems with networking in Mountain Lion"
Nonsense.
Perhaps YOU are not utilitzing networking on a prefessional level, meaning IT HAS TO WORK ALL THE TIME ;-)
It does work all the time.

Mountain Lion/Mavericks 'breaks' wifi base station - Snow Leopard works fine

Greetings all,
(Tried this in the OSx forum with no answers, so I figured I'd try the MacMini community and this one.)
I've been reading my way toward blindness through countless threads, here and elsewhere, from countless people, having problem with Mountain Lion and Wi-Fi these last few days, but some are using Airport, some are using third-party Wi-Fi routers, some aren't really specifying what they're using, so I thought I'd be as specific as possible about my situation - and add the fact that everything is still working fine if I boot into a cloned backup using Snow Leopard.
===
So here's the situation. I have a Intel Mac Mini which I use as a Wi-Fi base station for a Intel PowerBook Pro and an iPod 5. The Mini has been running Snow Leopard, and the PowerBook had been upgraded to Mountain Lion a few months ago. Things were still working fine at that point - the PowerBook's shift from SL to ML didn't affect its connectivity as a 'receiver' at all. About a week ago however, I finally upgraded the Mini to Mountain Lion as well (so that I could install the current version of Adobe Lightroom) and lost my Wi-Fi Internet access.
When I turn Wi-Fi on at the PowerBook, the Mini's network is visible, and I get the solid Wi-Fi fan showing a full connection, but I cannot access the Internet (indicated by the exclaimation point inside the fan for the first few seconds). The same is true on the iPod - I get the checkmark showing that I'm connected, but when I try to access any Internet services will get a pop-up box telling me that the Internet is not connected.
After going through pages and pages and pages of people struggling with similar issues on sites like this, and following suggestions like deleting my preference files, repairing permissions, zapping PRAM, creating new locations, changing IP addresses etc. I got no further. But since I had cloned my hard drive just before the upgrade from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion (thank you SuperDuper), I can reboot into Snow Leopard, and everything still works fine. With that advantage, I copied and re-created EVERY SINGLE preference in the system preferences for Network and Internet sharing* from the Snow Leopard into the Mountain Lion system. (I even went so far as to create a network in Mountain Lion's prefs. with WEP encryption instead of the newer WPA just in case that would make any difference at all.) But even with identical settings on the Mini regardless of booting into Snow Leopard or Mountain Lion, Mountain Lion remains the same - no problem connecting with the network, but complete inability to access the Internet. A few days ago, hoping against hope that an upgrade to Mavericks might reset things into some sort of working mode, I tried that - but no better result.
(*) I note that the wifi heading in the preference panes has changed from "AirPort" in Snow Leopard to "WiFI" in Mountain Lion and Mavericks, but I'm assuming that's just a change Apple made in its terminology to avoid confusion with the external AirPort options.
I would appreciate any suggestions any of you could give. And I would ask that you specify whether any suggested changes are to be made on the originating Wi-Fi station (in this case the Mini), or the receiver (in this case the MacBook). Many of the threads I've read to date can be confusing simply because they're not specifying on which machine any suggested changes need to be made, and while I'm sure there's nothing that needs to be changed at the MacBook, please specify if I'm wrong.
Thanks again,

ITunes movie playback, audio and video not in sync after upgrade to Mountain Lion

After upgrading to Mountain Lion I have problems with iTunes movie playback, and the audio/video at times stalls/delays, or skips a few seconds, or even gets out of sync. I feared this problem was isolated to my machine until I saw an article online: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57489874-263/sound-stuttering-after-mountai n-lion-installation/. I have 2011 iMac 27" with 16G RAM and am running the latest iTunes and Mac OS X software, and shutting down extra programs doesn't help. Please let me know of any solution.

I also have this problem, and some videos will no longer play in iTunes.
I get a message that this video is not compatible with this version of iTunes. I have to open the video in Quicktime to watch it.
Unacceptable! This hardware and software is too expensive to have these performance issues.
2011 Mac Mini, 8GB RAM, Duo core, iTunes library on NAS on wired network. Mountain Lion 10.8.2. iTunes 10.7 64 bit.

Ethernet connection issues after installing Mountain Lion

After installing Mountain Lion I can't get my iMac to connect by ethernet. It says that no cable is connected. The cable/connection is fine. When I plug in my MacBook Pro running Lion, the ethernet connects just fine.

same exact problem. in fact, my iMac24 (2009) worked flawlessly until I installed the latest update to Mountain Lion. I then checked my MBAir (2011) and it too has a problem when using the USB/Ethernet adapter. Neither can get an ethernet connection. I deleted my network preferences and rebooted my machine, played around with my Ethernet switch and even reboot my gateway/router. I've never had to do any of this to my network until Mountain Lion. Wireless is the only thing that continues to work on both machines.

Mountain Lion Mail Issue

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion. Since upgrade I now have a problem with Mail v6.0 it works perfectly fine with two WPA Personal and WPA2 Personal WiFi networks, but not at all with my Uni WPA/WPA2 Enterprise network. I get internet connection but cannot receive or send mail. I have refreshed the networks. I have reinstalled the software. I have Used Connection Doctor but it says I have internet (green light) but get red for all mail pop and smtp accounts. I am baffled why it works perfectly fine on personal networks only.
I am considering unloading Mountain Lion as no-one at Apple phone support or in the Apple store can explain or fix it.

Yes, I know. But the better you explain the situation, the more likely someone will understand what is going on and be able to help. You just copied and pasted what you wrote before, which I asked for clarification about.
There is nothing about Mountain Lion that is going to restrict your network connections. Mountain Lion may be interacting with your university network better and implementing university restrictions that were broken before. It may be just a coincidence of timing.
You mentioned POP accounts with your ISP. Most POP accounts are stricted to their home network. This is because they usually aren't secure. Every time you check your e-mail you are broadcasting your password. The default SMTP configuration has no security settings either. It is standard for networks to block this default activity. You are blaming Mountain Lion but it sure sounds like your university network and Mountain Lion are operating correctly. Such default e-mail setting are supposed to be blocked. They are doing you a favour.
Get the secure e-mail settings for your e-mail from your ISP. Use IMAP instead of POP. Both IMAP and SMTP can be configured to use secure ports and will require your account name and password. Once you use these settings, your Mail will work from anywhere.

HT3275 Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive. Could not complete backup to media share. The network backup disk does not support the required AFP feat

Since updating OS to Mountain Lion from leopard, I get the following error message when trying to backup with time machine on external drive. "Could not complete backup to media share. The network backup disk does not support the required AFP features." What are AFP features and how do I get Time Machine to backup to my current external backup?

This means that your NAS does not support the required encryption. Update your NAS to the latest firmware or ditch it and buy a Time Capsule (they are the most reliable when using TM).

I'm trying to use Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins via Screen Share to their iTunes.

Using Mountain Lion Server so my family can have separate logins and connect via Screen Share.
Works great, each has their own home directory and permissions are perfect.
Now setting up iTunes for each with their own Library (not shared), thus keeping multiple Libraries.
I get this;
This Computer is already associated with an Apple ID.
If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you
cannot auto-download past purchases with a different
Apple ID for 90 days.
What!
So what it is on the same computer, they are completely separate Libraries never to be mixed.
If this works, I only need to keep one computer up and running, instead of three.
Each can do their syncing/backup and connect to the various Airplay/AppleTVs I have around the house.
How do I fix this.
Thanks

Bottom line is you can't - easily.
You need to make sure that you log out of the server each time otherwise the ID is running. To explain, if you had a laptop with different people using it, your solution works fine. Each time someone logs in, the iTunes ID is different so it works as you can only have one person using the laptop at any one time.
Now, turning your problem inside-out, you want people to be able to log into iTunes concurrently to use their own version of the program with their own library. This does not seem to work and you get the conflicted ID error message. Even though iTunes is running under their own login ident, I have never been able to get this working reliably and was told that iTunes is NOT a network-aware application as it is designed to be single user.
The way I got around this was to login as XYZ and to make sure that the ID was changed in iTunes accordingly. However, it did not always work so I gave up with the whole thing.

2010 Mac Mini display and network issues after Mountain Lion installation

I just installed Mountain Lion on my 2010 Mac Mini, but now the display won't work and it isn't showing up on my network. I have it hooked up to my TV (I don't have another screen for it) via HDMI. Also, I've mainly used this computer by using the share screen function with my laptop, so I don't have a keyboard or mouse for it either. The Mini is no longer showing up on my laptop's network list... Any suggestions?

I would see if you borrow a USB keyboard and mouse
from some one, because otherwise trouble shooting the
problem will be next to impossible as sometimes the fixes
and diagnostics require the keyboard (PRAM reset, Hardware
Test, etc.).

How do I share a folder over the internet with Mountain Lion server?

I am new to using formal servers. In Snow Leopard I was able to use web sharing to serve a small website and if I wanted to share a folder with someone I would just provide the person I wanted to share a file with the path to the file inside the sites directory. With Mountain Lion this functionality was removed from the sharing section of system preferences.
I purchased mountain lion server and was able to restore the website serving ability, but I haven't been able to figure out how to share a folder. I am still looking over what documentation I can find, but for the most part it just tells me to set up the services without telling me how. Any assistance would be helpful. Networking is not my area of expertise.
Best Regards,
David Finell

I purchased server to assist with this as I am unfamiliar with the command line protocols for using apache. Because of the UNIX architechture of OSX and I presume apache, I am uncomfortable using the command line for fear of causing serious problems.
Unfortunately, the documentation that I have seen for mountain lion server is wanting in either its completeness or layout/functionability. To summarize the server instructions as I understand them. It just says to configure it and my system to meet my requirements without telling me how.
I am confident that both the apache command line and server are capable of accomplishing what I was able to do before under snow leopard. I just haven't figured out how.
I was able to provide a link to family and clients like http://ipaddress/~user/folder
This no longer works.

Mountain Lion Server with Network User

I have a Mountain Lion Server with a network user. The whole system has been redone from Lion Server and on top of that I moved location, ISP, hardware and a few other things. The way I used the setup on Lion was to bind my MBP to the server and login from the MBP login window with the network account. If for whatever reason I wanted to look at the network account on the server, I could fast user swtich and everything that was open ie Safari, Mail, etc would be the same as it was on the MBP.
Now if I'm logged into the network user on the MBP and then go to the server, it logs in as if I've just booted. They share the home folder and any new files/folders created on one shows on the other. But if Mail is open on the MBP it won't be open on the server.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks for your reply.
I believe I got it to work, but,... How do you get the network account users to show up on the login window of the client computer? The login window shows the name of the client computer and the local accounts on the client computer. When I select Other in the login list I can login using a network account user id and it logs in. The network account user names do not show up on the login window
