Sharing across LAN

My Macbook 0S X 10.5.. is on a home LAN with a desktop WinXP PC. In Network Connections on the WinXP, I can see the Macbook and but no folders. On the MacBook, under Shared I can see ChuckXP but no folders. Before I installed OS X 5 I was able to see shared folders on ChuckXP. What do I need to do to establish a connection between the computers?

Hi Heene,
It has been checked for a long time.

Printer sharing across internet sharing

I hope I don't confuse everyone with this.
I have three computers—an iMac running Snow Leopard, an iMac running Lion, and a Mini running Leopard. The SL iMac has a printer plugged into it. The other two computers are across the house from it.
Those two computers are next to each other. The Lion iMac is connected to the Internet via WiFi. The Mini, which does not have wireless, is connected to the Internet via Internet Sharing over an ethernet cable to the Lion iMac.
Now here's the problem. I can print from the Lion iMac through printer sharing across to the SL iMac. However, I can't figure out how to print from the Mini. It won't find the SL iMac's printer. Enabling printer sharing on the Lion iMac lets the Mini see it as a 'printer,' but it won't print across to the SL iMac.
So with this setup, is it possible to print to the SL iMac from the wireless-less Mini?
Just to ward off possible non-workable solutions, rearranging the computers is not feasable right now. It is also not possible to connect the Mini directly to the internet via ethernet. My cable modem is actually in a near-inaccessable part of the house due to that being where the only cable plug is. I have a Time Capsule attached to it, which broadcasts my wireless signal that the WiFi computers can pick up. And no, I can't connect the printer to the Time Capsule—believe me, I tried. I don't want to have to start buying long cables and drilling holes if there's a simpler solution.
Thanks in advance.

If I switch to the discussed set up (Airport Extreme N router), will adding an AX in between at 15 feet help bridge the link between the G5's Airport extreme card and the living room's AX?
Yes. But I still think you should verify if Wi-Fi interference is the cause of your poor signal only 30' away from the AX before going out and purchase anything. Remember, you will tradeoff bandwidth performance for signal strength. With audio, this can be a negative factor.
If you can get a hold of a laptop, I suggest downloading a copy of iStumbler. Use iStumbler's Inspector feature (select Edit > Inspector from iStumbler's menu) to determine the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) at different points around your house, by performing a simple RF site survey. Within the Inspector, note the values for "signal" & "noise" at these locations. Start with the laptop near the AX, note the readings, and then, choose the locations between the AX and, finally, where you have the G5.
SNR is the signal level (in dBm) minus the noise level (in dBm). For example, a signal level of -53dBm measured near an access point and typical noise level of -90dBm yields a SNR of 37dB, a healthy value for wireless LANs.
The SNR, as measured from the laptop, decreases as the range to the base station increases because of applicable free space loss. Also an increase in RF interference from microwave ovens and cordless phones, which increases the noise level, also decreases SNR.
SNR Guideline
o 40dB+ SNR = Excellent signal
o 25dB to 40dB SNR = Very good signal
o 15dB to 25dB SNR = Low signal
o 10dB to 15dB SNR = Very low signal
o 5dB to 10dB SNR = No signal
If the SNR is 20dB+ at each of these locations, then you should be getting reasonable performance from your AirPort. If less, either try to locate the source of the Wi-Fi interference or try relocating the base station or the G5 until they are within a 20dB SNR range.

TS2972 I cannot seem to get all of my music shared across the network from my MacBook Pro to my iPad. This was not an issue a few days ago. Can anyone help?

I cannot seem to get all of my music shared across the network from my MacBook Pro to my iPad. This was not an issue a few days ago. I can see all my songs if sorted that way, but if i sort by artist, only a few of them are present. Can anyone help or have any insight?

Well I didn't think of it before, but I logged out of my apple ID othe iPad's home sharing. The I logged back in and it worked. It's a little weird, but I will take it. Thanks!

How do you configure the DAM so it can be shared across multiple CQ instances?

How do you configure the DAM so it can be shared across multiple CQ instances?

You can use shared datastore http://dev.day.com/content/kb/home/Crx/CrxSystemAdministration/HowToCombineTheDatastoreToP reserveDiskSpace.html multiple CQ instance will use same file system to share asset
clustering http://dev.day.com/docs/en/crx/current/administering/cluster.html multiple node will share repository.
But you can not have something like one DAM and then have different CQ instance pointing to it (As not everything goes in to one location in file system)

Will the Application Scope be shared across the cluster in a multi-node OC4

Hi,
I have the following requirement:
Users of the application can only have single (browser) session. When a user who already has a session connects again, he should no longer be allowed to access the older session.
My proposed implementation is:
- After successful login – possibly using a Session Listener - an entry is made in a HashMap UserSessions that lives in the application scope. Key is the username, value is the session id (HttpSession.getId()).
- For every request, using a ServletFilter, we check whether the session is still in the UserSessions HashMap for the current user. If a new session has been created for the same user, the session id for that new session is in the UserSessions map and the servletfilter will not find the session. In that case, the filter should invalidate the session and forward to the user to an error page.
However, the application will run on a multi-node OC4J cluster. I am starting to wonder:
Will the Application Scope be shared across the cluster in a multi-node OC4J environment?
I know session state can be shared. But what application state/scope?
Does anyone know? Do I have to do anything special in the cluster or the application to get this to work?
Thanks for your help.
Lucas

gday Lucas --
Application scope is not replicated across JVM boundaries with OC4J.
I'm sure this used to be described in the doc, but I can't find it now from a quick scan.
If you wanted to use this type of pattern, you could look to use a Coherence cache as distribution mechanism to share objects across multiple JVMs/nodes.

After factory reset information shared across devices won't load

Hello. I recently did a factory reset on my MacBook Air. I backed up my iphoto library and itunes library to external hard drive and was able to load those fine. But I am still having a problem with syncing media and data across devices. Maybe I'm missing something? I set up my icloud; the contacts, address book, etc. seemed to have loaded all the data. BUT: the information that is supposed to load through sharing across my ipad, iphone 5 is not loading. I thought the itunes would load my music just based on the sharing, but it is a good thing I backed it up. Things like ibooks, and the most recent photos I have taken on my iphone are not loaded.
Please help: I need to know how get all my devices sharing again, and/or pushing media through itunes
Any tips would be welcome. Thanks.

Information that is 'shared' via icloud includes calendar events, contacts, todo items, notes, and safari bookmarks. Music that is on an iOS device isn't shared. If it is music you purchased from the Apple iTunes store you can redownload it or it can be moved from the device by using the Transfer Purchases option of the iTunes File menu when your phone is connected to the computer via the cable. iOS apps can also be transferred to the computer this way. New pictures will sync when the phone/iPad is physically connected but I'm not certain how old pictures that exist on the iOS device but not on the computer are handled. You may need to use a third party program to transfer these old pictures - as well as music not purchased from the iTunes store.

When you enable Photo Stream on your devices, only new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your Photo Stream. Existing photos won't.

How do I configure my contacts to be shared across multiple emails?

How do I configure my iPhone6 contacts to be shared across multiple emails accounts?

By interface I simply mean connected to the contacts. I have two different gmail accounts, one that uses the apple mail app and the new one that launches from the gmail icon that I downloaded from the app store. The new one doesn't recognize the contacts.

Cluster installation failed:OCR files are not shared across all nodes

Hi gurus,

I have lost a shared (across several devices) iCloud calendar. How do I get it back?

Try having the owner resend the invitation for the shared calendar (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mm6b1a9cbb), then accept the invitation to add it back.

How are "Internet Accounts" shared across Macs?

I use several Macs (office, home, notebook). I noticed that when I add a new account in "Internet Accounts" on one of the Macs, it may appear on another Mac or may not even if I'm signed in iClouds with the same Apple ID. I wonder how I can control whether a newely added Internet Account is shared across all my Macs.
Sorry for a trivial question, but I could not find any info on this.

Hey there zornie,
It sounds like the features you are describing are part of iCloud Keychain.
iCloud Keychain can also keep the accounts you use in Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Messages up to date across all of your Macs. If you're signed in to Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, or any other accounts in Internet Accounts on OS X Mavericks, iCloud can push those accounts to your Macs as well.
From: iCloud: Frequently asked questions about iCloud Keychain
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5813
If you would like one of your devices to not automatically have accounts setup with iCloud Keychain, you would have to turn off the feature in your settings.

Problems sharing across two computers on home lan

I must be doing something basic wrong. The instructions for sharing a downloaded digital edtion sound very easy in the help manual but following those directions I am not able to share a book across two computers on my home lan.
Both computers have been authorized by my user id. When I open the menu item on Library menu/Authorize computer
I'm told the computer is authorized and my UID is shown. However when I attempt to `add' the book I get a message saying:
> This document cannot be opened on this machine.
> Please contact the site where you obtained the document
> to download another copy.
I just bought the book today not more than 2 hrs ago
The `knowledgbase' help for digital editions is completely useless and returns no hits regardless of what I type in the search field.
What else do I need to do to share a book across two home computers?

Harry
You shouldn't need anything else. The common problems (after you have gotten past the authorization) for sharing are:
- You copy over the .etd file instead of the .pdf file.
- You copy over the .pdf file from /Digital Editions/ebx_backup instead of /Digital Editions. (My best guess, given the error message).
- The file was purchased with only rights to view it on a single machine.
The not so common and more worrisome case would be if the License was not being correctly written into the file after you purchase it.
I would suggest that after verifying you are copying the correct file, you should open up a web support case, so that Bentley can track this, and help us gather all the correct information so we can figure out what is going on.
Sorry you're having problems

Why did my sharing across the my office LAN stop working?

I just came back to the office after a couple weeks away and nobody can listen to my music anymore. Since, I've installed the new update to iTunes (7.7.1) as well as a few OS patches. They can see the folder under shared playlists, but when the try to connect is says "not responding". I have sharing turned on in iTunes, and even looked at the firewall and added iTunes as an application with "allow incoming connections" turned on. What else is there? Is this a bug in a recent patch? (oh, and yeah, i did a restart which really chaps me).

Please copy to clipboard and paste into a message here the troubleshooting information from the help menu.

File path limitation across lan shared storage

Friends,
I realize that the mac os does not have a file path limitation and a file name limit of 255 char.
But, Is there a path length limitation specific to adobe products ( in order to make projects more cross platform ).
I have adobe InDesign and have projects (files) on a NAS I am experiencing difficulties with the files on the nas.
[ crashing the app , running slow ] I am wondering if having files nested 10 -14 levels deep could be a problem.
My file path length are about 80 - 200 char.
the nas is a buffalo terrastation [ xfs ] attached 1000 mbps
thanks

Service that run Application Server specifies in Log
On Tab, Log on as Local System account.
And when I run the servlet through its url, user.name
JAVA property is SYSTEM.
When I log on to the server with Admin user and invoke
the servlet's doGet method from other java class
locally, writing is succeeded. user.name JAVA property
in this case (when I logged on) is Admin.
Probably I should be logged on to the system before I
can perform operations with files on the local
network?So Admin has permission to write to that share but 'Local System' doesn't.
Option 1 (recommended): Check out jCifs, if you use that you can specify a different user to write to the share from that which the system is running under.
Option 2: run the service as a user who does have appropriate permissions.
Option 3: run the application server in the foreground instead of as a service.

Home sharing across two wifi networks?

I have two wifi networks in my home and each is attached to its own cable modem. Can home sharing be used across both networks so I can see my Apple TV and my iTunes library at the same time in the remote app? Thus far, I have only been able to access them separately by switching wifi networks on my iPhone. All my devices are set up with the same Apple ID. My main computer is running Windows 7 and it is connected to network #1 via LAN and network #2 via wireless. All my speakers including Apple TV show up in the Airplay menu of iTunes. Apple TV is connected to network #2 solely for the reason that the signal is stronger.
Any ideas out there? This has been frustrating the heck out of me. Thanks in advance!
