Shared computer

I just noticed that another shared computer showed up in the left bar. How can I delete the sharing privileges for this computer. I don't know who it is or what it is. The name is brneb76a9.
I did just install a brother color laser printer on my home network. Could it be that the printer is brneb76a9?
I tried disconnecting the printer but the sharing for brneb76a9 did not go away.
Thank you

I think this is my printer configured under the Bonjour networking application. I did not have to do anything at all, the printer was configured and available immediately.

Internet does not work on sharing computer

ok the problem is this the second computer that shares the internet connection download speed starts ok but within 1/2 a second slows down to zero the same thing with mail gets a connection but then cuts off.Both computers are running 10.5.1 the main computer which ever one I set as main works fine just the sharing computer has these problems. I started form 10.4.6 on the main computer and everything works fine as it should do, why wont it work under leopard ?I am using a wired ethernet thru a switch.
Please help me
thanks

I would recommend checking what wifi network you are connecting to. Xfinity wifi is their hotspot not your internal network. if you are connected to the xfinity wifi it will not work unless you sign in.

On a shared computer how do I get the userid to not be saved in the logon for mail.

When I log onto my yahoo or google mailbox - the userid is saved. I don't want that to happen as it is a shared computer. It doesn't save passwords, just the user id.

I cleared out all the cookies and changed my parameter to delete cookies when I closed Firefox. I then closed my browser and reopened it...logon or userid was still there. Thank you for your reply though.
I tried earlier to use privacy browsing and when I did I wasn't able to log into my google mailbox at all.

How do I access iTunes on a shared computer?

My computer died, I am using a shared computer and the other user already has iTunes under his own account. Is there any way to access my iTunes account on this computer without doing anything to his iTunes?

yes it is. its all linked. dont you see?
how do i get itunes on a different computer? is the title of the thread.
i have the same problem. the computer one of our itunes was on broke. it was replaced. apple dont cater for this. you can only link an apple device to one itunes. so if the computer is replaced, you are stuffed!!
i installed another itunes on another computer and the original ipod wont sync with it or allow itunes to download the latest ipod operating system.
the easiest thing to do would be to buy a new ipod (clear of content) and a new pc. install itunes on the pc, create a new apple ID and voila - can then start to put music and apps back on ipod and have the lastest and greatest OS.
expensive i admit, but surely far less painful then any alternative?

How do I stop another person using their own Apple ID accessing my Itunes library on a shared computer?

My daughter and I have our own Itunes libraries on a shared computer. However we can access each others libraries by using our own Apple ID. This causes a problem because she was able to access my account and delete some music by mistake. Is their a way that I can ensure no one can access my music?
Thanks

Emma,
If two people have separate libraries on the same computer, it is best to put them into two separate Windows User accounts.
Go to Start > Control Panel > User Accounts > Add User Accounts, and get her set up in a separate user account. Then move all her stuff there and from then on the two of you can operate independently on the same computer.

I have bought my husband his own i pad and we both need to use our own on a shared computer. will the two apple IDs show as separate on the i tunes or do I need two different I tune programs?

Each device is different and will only sync what you select

Can i download to ipod using an Itunes sharing computer?

Hellooooo ~
My original Itunes install is on a Mac 10.3.9. My Itunes sharing computer is a Windows XP. The sharing over the local network seems to be working fine. I have not yet purchased an IPOD. QUESTION: Will I be able to get my (Mac sourced) songs and podcasts onto the IPOD from the sharing Windows computer?
Another question: is there any way to duplicate my actual song files to the Windows XP computer so that I don't have to turn on the Mac in order for itunes to function on the XP machine? All my song files are on the Mac.
thanks for any helpppppp.
very truly yours

Will I be able to get my (Mac sourced) songs and podcasts onto the IPOD from the sharing Windows computer?
No, iTunes library sharing only allows you to listen to music in the shared library.
Another question: is there any way to duplicate my actual song files to the Windows XP computer so that I don't have to turn on the Mac in order for itunes to function on the XP machine? All my song files are on the Mac.
Yes, use the network to copy the files from the Mac to the PC.

I am on a shared computer with several profiles. I had to delete my profile and create a new one. Now, my question. It transferred to Purchased Items to the new iTunes, so how do I get the rest of the songs to transfer to new iTunes?

It sounds like you might have broken links to your content. Either repair these by putting the files you've recovered where iTunes expects to find them or delete the broken entries then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on This Computer, and click the download links.
If you have an Apple device see also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

License errors: shared computer with multiple users

Please help! I work at a shared computer (we each take shifts manning the desk and take turns using the PC). I tried to download an e-Book to the Digital Editions on the desktop and got this message:
Error getting license
License server communication problem: E_LIC_ALREADY_FULFILLED_BY_ANOTHER_USER
I tried uninstalling Digital editions, rebooting, and reinstalling but am getting the same message. Is there a way to resolve this issue?

Unusual Shared Computer and Lost External Hard Drive

I cannot mount a Acomdata HD250FE5-72 external hard drive on my iMacG5. I can't find it in Disk Utility and I can't find it on my new MacBook. My TimeMachine hard drive is daisy chained to it and is working fine. The light on the front is red and flashes blue about once a sec.
I also have a Shared Computer in the Finder named mac001ff3d22ed4, which I cannot connect to. It maybe related or just coincidence. Any advice?
I found the drive in TimeMachine as a folder. Assuming the HD is hosed, how do I go about restoring that drive? I assume I need to purchase a new HD to restore to. Is that correct?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know if your problem is related to the drive being encrypted, but here's a solution for getting SecureHD Login to work on Leopard.
First make sure you follow this guide to uninstall the old version of SecureHD Login you have: http://www.techsupportlive.com/techsupport/MAC/SecureHDLogin/SecureHD_Login_(Uninstall)_User_guide_for_MacX.pdf
Then download and install this version of the software: http://www.techsupportlive.com/index.php?m=downloads&a=viewdownload&downloaditemid=60&nav=0,8

Shared computer showing up in Finder not part of my network

Hello,
I am very confused on what is going on here. Basically, I am at a friends house and have my MacBook connected directly with an Ethernet chord. There are no other connections going out of the DSL box/Router because there is only one output for internet. It's the generic one that comes with internet installation.
That being said, in the sidebar of my Finder window there is a computer listed under shared called "office" and I am capable of viewing all of the files on this computer.
The only other computer in the house is a Windows 98 Desktop computer, and does not have the same files on it, nor is it even connected to the internet.
Like I said, this is a direct connection, no wireless router.
If it matters, I was previously in town using unsecured wifi from local businesses and then came home, plugged in the ethernet, and the shared computer popped up.
When I disconnect the ethernet, the shared computer goes away.
I am completely boggled on how this can be occuring.

Do you have your MacBook's AirPort turned on? You are likely picking up an unsecured WiFi router and attached computer network.

Office 365 with Shared Computer Activation (on RDS 2012)

Hi,
I have installed Office 365 (shared activation method) on RDS 2012.
This works fine, users can activate using their Office 365 account and the entire Office suite appears activated.
The issue is that the users intermittently (random intervals) have to re-enter their details and reactivate.
Under what circumstances should the users have to reactivate, sometimes I can logon and activate and the next logon I have to do it again. Other times it can last for days..
Thanks.

If you have ADFS or DirSync to your O365 tenant, most likely you wouldn't see this happening, it would all hookup seamlessly (a lot like KMS just does...)

Using skype on a shared computer

After using skype on a shared computer i dont want my id to remain in the skype sign in window. How to proceed. thks

The EULA allows the licensed user to install on two separate machines. The two are not allowed to be run at the same time, but otherwise, there should be no issues.
Good luck, and safe travels,

Home network - can't see shared computer in Finder

I set up a home network between my macbook (leopard) and macmini (10.4) but can't see the shared computer tab in the Finder, could it be beacuase a don't have leopard on the macmini?
I guess I'm missing a trick. Can anybody help?
Thanks

I can no longer see my MacPro from my MBP in the
finder's "Network" window.
I can still connect using "Connect to Server" and
typing the IP manually.
From the MacPro I can see the MBP just fine.
I repaired permission, ran cocktail etc...
Any ideas?
Apple uses a service called "Bonjour" to discover devices on a network. Bonjour piggybacks on the mDNS service, meaning it broadcasts on port 5353. Apple is sensitive to being called "chatty", because it's past device discovery methods were indeed chatty. Bounjour has built in some passivity, and devices will delay their broadcasts if logic detects they're not needed. Sometimes all it takes is clicking on the Network tab.
It all boils down to 1 of 3 things:
1) The MacPro is not sending out Bonjour discovery packets.
2) The MacPro is sending out Bonjour discovery packets, but the discovery packets are not reaching the MBP. This is highly doubtful, since the process is working in the opposite direction.
3) The packets reach the MBP but it's not responding to them.
There's a great (and free) utility called Bonjour Browser, and it's available on versiontracker. If you run it on the MBP, you'll have a much better ideas as to what's happening.
My best guess is that the MacPro is not sending out packets. This would either be due to not having anything to share (File Sharing turned off) or logic which dictates that it's been sending out these packets for a long time so they're delayed for 30 minutes to reduce chattiness.

Unwanted Shared computer

Hi,
I've just installed Snow Leopard and I now have a Shared computer coming up in my Finder window. If I click on it, it tries to connect, then says, 'Connection failed'.
I have not linked up with any other networks or computers as far as I am aware. However, I also added a Mac Book for back up and I think I may have turned on Airport when installing (I'm not quite sure why).
Should I be worried about this computer coming up? I've turned Airport off now but it's still in my Finder window.
Thanks in advance

Hello m:
I never paid any attention to that area before. I have two items in the shared section (both are web addresses). Neither make any sense and they cannot be removed (see article):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8731.html
They are not connected to anything. I am ignoring them and you probably should do the same thing. I have no clue why the guidance indicates they cannot be removed.

Unknown shared computer shows up

Hi everyone,
I have used Mac OS X since version 10.1, so I know it quite well. However, since I have upgraded to 10.5, a computer shows up under "shared" in the Finder. It was never my intention to connect to any computer, but one named uw-uy155rr0hdft (a pc server) keeps showing up. Sometimes it disappears (after a reboot), but whenever I download something through Safari, it appears again.
I am worried that someone might have broken into my system (is this even possible on a Mac?), since I never wanted to connect to this PC in the first place. On the plus side, whenever I click on this shared computer, the connection fails. How can I remove this shared computer from my system? Thank you very much in advance.

This recently happened to me as well. "Computer2007" is what showed up along with another name. I'm behind 2 routers on a wired connection so I'm not sure what it could have been. I disconnected my modem, restarted my comp, changed my firewall options and enabled stealth mode. Nothing shows up now.
