Sharing Files AFP issue

Hi,
in my LAN there are 12 macs , some of them got 10.4.5 , others 10.4.11, one has Os 9.2.2
Every machine is sharing files via AFP/SMB (System Preferences /Sharing) , all machines are listed correctly in Network Finder window.
The issue is here: It happens that sometimes , in a random way, some folders (shared or not ..es.Application folder) of a certain machine (for example machine A) are moved to Machine B !!!
No strange activities are recorded in Logs (system,console,afp,smb) except for a restart of afp sharing when a Os9 try to connect to (It fails to connect but don't mind).
Some machines had moved also their Library/Preference folder to another location!
To connect to a share i use a guest account to limit users possibilities,
so i don't understand why some folder that requires special permissions should copy o move to another location..
Any Idea?

since this issue Os9 client are not enable to connect anymore...
OSX.4.x lost the file transfer ability of Appletalk... 10.1.5 thru 10.3.9 had it!
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301183
With OS9 set with Appletalk to using TCP/IP, and or Chooser>AppleShare+IP, you can connect to the 10.48 machine.
"Mac OS X 10.4 and later don't support Personal File Sharing (or other AFP) over Appletalk, though by initiating the connection from the opposite direction you could still achieve an IP connection from a Mac OS 8 computer to a sharing Mac OS X computer. The Network preference pane in Mac OS X 10.4 and later still offers the AppleTalk checkbox, but it is for browsing AppleTalk-advertised resources and zones. The subsequent connection must be over TCP/IP."

    Copied the elements folder to the root of the HD, then renamed the folder with the installer files contained within to c:\PSElements9Installer then ran the setup.exe as administrator and hey presto, it worked and fully completed the install grrrrr.

  • Shared File Missing from Time Capsule

    This morning all of my shared files are missing.  There used to be two folders in the time capsule file and now there is only one "DATA" which is where our workstation backups go.  The other one was a Shared File where we put all of the files we shared across the network.   The DATA file is there, but the Shared file is completely missing.  I have tried searching the individual workstations and I cannot find it or anything that was within it.   Any ideas how to find/restore it?

    Very strange stuff happens.. let me tell you .. if you put a computer onto yosemite .. even one..even briefly.. like a laptop someone bought in and connected to the TC,  it can do some very odd stuff to the network files.. permissions is a big big issue.
    Time Machine cannot backup network drives.. so sharing files from the TC is always a very very bad idea. The TC is designed purely as a backup target for Time Machine. It should be used very carefully beyond its design parameters.. since it cannot back itself up either.
    I still think the files are there.. unless it was deliberately deleted.
    I don't think you will like my suggestions to get the files back though.
    But here is an odd one.. get /borrow /lone a PC laptop running windows.. and load up the airport utility onto it. Then open the TC disk in windows explorer.. type the name directly into the address bar..
    \\TCname.local or \\TCIPaddress (where you replace the TCname with actual NETWORK name (which is not its name as shown on the TC if it has spaces and illegal characters).. that is why using the actual IP is easier.. TCIPaddress replace with IPv4 address eg 10.0.1.1
    Windows cannot read Mac permissions so tends to open everything. It cannot read it correctly all the file info sometimes but you will quickly see what is there and what is missing.
    Another suggestion.
    Full factory reset of the TC. No files on the hard disk are changed doing this.
    Factory reset universal
    Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
    Run through the airport utility and use all short names no spaces and pure alphanumerics. Passwords should also match that except longer.. 8-20 characters work well for both.
    Now manually mount the disk in Finder.
    Use Go, Connect to Server in Finder.. type in
    AFP://TCname.loca or TCIPaddress (same as above definitions).
    In the new clean mount of the TC disk see if you can locate the directory or folder with your missing files.
    Otherwise if the files are important.. you must immediately stop using the TC.. remove its hard disk or get a store to swap disks for you .. and preserve the old one.. use a proper USB to SATA holder and plug it into your Mac and use a file recovery software like Data Rescue 3 to see if the files are deleted but available. I have had success using this method. Even just running disk utility to fix permissions can sometimes get the results you want.
    If it is a fairly old TC.. with say a 1 or 2TB disk it is very easy to open the TC and change out the disk.. ask if you are prepared to go this path and we can give you more info.

  • Sharing files with Creative cloud for teams

    HI,
    I am looking at getting creative cloud for teams, but I want to keep our existing CS suite users who are already on maintenance plans.
    Can I share files on the creative cloud  between these two types of users?
    Does Adobe Bridge see these files ?
    Is there any way of doing version control ?
    We are also worried about this
    "If a team member leaves the company, what happens to their files stored in Creative Cloud?
    The IP is associated with the individual, not the company. The individual will have a 90-day grace period to delete their files."
    Also we are in Australia and we are concerned about the speed. Can anyone advise what the speed is like ?
    rgds Renovator

    Anyone who signs up for the Creative Cloud can share files. You do not need to be a Creative Cloud member to view a shared file, only to do the sharing.
    Adobe Bridge does not see the files unless you use Creative Cloud Connection to sync the files to your local computer.
    There is no version control yet. It is on our road map.
    Being in Australia should not be an issue, but I will let other customers from Australia comment.

  • I am sharing my macbook pro over a network with windows 7, however through windows 7 I can access my whole computer instead of just the shared files!

    I am sharing my macbook pro over a network with windows 7, however through windows 7 I can access my whole computer instead of just the shared files!

    Hi Sig,
    The issue is that i only want the shared folders to be accessed through windows 7.
    Whats the point otherwise to have shared folders?
    thanks..

  • Unable to access shared files over network after period of time.

    First off, I don't think that this issue is related to our router, but I have been searching for a fix and can not find one. We have a WRT54GS. Now, on to our issue:
    At my work, we have a small network with computers sharing files between the others. I have attached a network diagram to help explain this better.
    Our Win7 machine is our main computer that shares an external hard drive with much information that the other computers need to access. What we have noticed is either after a sleep, or even a period of time of say, 2 hours, those files are no longer able to be accessed. The Win7 machine is still sharing them, but the WinXP machines are unable to access them anymore and my Mac can see the computer is unable to connect to the folders. I have gone and attempted to get some help over at Microsofts site but that was a fail. Here is the link to the forum post there. http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7network/thread/f0a2e8d6-f75a-41d7-a280-c6f3adbffa...
    A member there gave me this:
    The Network connection is probably not resuming after sleep. 
    First try this, http://www.ezlan.net/Win7/power_save_win7.jpg
    It is in the Network Connection Properties under the Network card configuration.
    If it already checked this way, or does not work after checking, the Network card has to be taken out of the computer's Power Saving loop, and stay on all the time.
    Otherwise, Updating the Card with the latest OEM drivers (downloaded from the computer's support site) might help too.
    On a rare occasions, some cards might be "Quirky" in this regards and need to be replaced.
    --I would like to add that this DOESN'T ONLY happen after sleep, it also happens after a time of being used.
    I attempted those and no luck. This problem is still occurring and the only way we can fix it is by restarting the Win7 machine. But even if it is being used, we have no idea when those files are unable to be accessed.
    *I will add that the Win7 machine is still able to access the other computers when this problem occurs if that helps.
    **The Win7 machine is a Dell T3500 running Windows 7 64bit. I can provide specific hardware if needed. The drivers are all up to date as of yesterday.
    ***So upon looking in the Windows XP machine, both of the folders from the Win7 machine disappear once this problem occurs in the My Network Places folder. And one folder is on the internal drive, one is on external. The computers are in this situation now where I am unable to access them. The Win7 machine can read and write from the other computers, but the other computers can even see the Win7 Machine.
    ****All the connections are wired and are not using the wireless.
    Thanks for any help that anyone may have for me!

    Dell Support Forum with same issue I posted >> http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-internet-wireless/f/3324/p/19337620/19716797.asp...

    It sounds like there is incompatibility issue with XP and Win7. To isolate this, do you have another Win7 machine? Try to add it to the network and check if the shared drives are accessible after sleep. If you don't have another computer, try virtual machine and create a Win7 system.
    Update your LAN card driver from the manufacturer's site. Don't use the driver from windows update.
    Lastly, does this happen to your XP machines? Like, one of the XP machine sharing a folder and falls asleep. When it wakes up, does Win7 machine can still access the shared folder?

    I found the answer on the Quicken Support site. Unbelievable!!!!
    Article ID: GEN82981      Updated: 8/11/2011 |
    Unable to Share a Data File Between Multiple Users on the Same System
    Cause The Quicken Essentials data is a data package that contains multiple files.  Each item in the package has permission set based on the current users profile.  When the Package is moved to a shared folder, the permission in the data package are not changed, therefore cannot be accessed by another user.
    You can change the permissions for each individual file within the data package to be accessed by other users.  However, the first user who opens the file after the permissions have been changed, will take ownership of the data package, and it will no longer be accessible by the other party again.
    SolutionThis issue is currently a product limitation and is expected to be resolved in a future version of Quicken Essentials for Mac.

  • How to see my Microsoft shared files?

    I have my emac connected via ethernet to my broadband modem.

  • Using iPhoto 09, 8.1.2 How do I re-route saving pictures to the hard drive? Currently am saving to files on 'my' partition, and would like to change to save to a shared file so both partitions can view and access.

    Using iPhoto 09, 8.1.2 How do I re-route saving pictures to the hard drive? Currently am saving to files on 'my' partition, and would like to change to save to a shared file so both partitions can view and access.

    Drag the Library from the Pictures folder to the Users/Shared folder. I would point out that folks doing this on 10.6 and later frequently meet permissions issues. You might do better moving it to an appropriately formatted External Disk.

  • Sharing files between XP & Vista Computers

    I've set up Network Magic on my XP & Vista operating system computers. Works great from Vista to XP. Can share files perfectly. However I need the reverse. I need to share the files from the XP machine on My Vista machine. I get an error message that the Vista machine cannot access files even though the machines are communicating. I've set up windows firewall correctly on both machines, so I don't believe it's a firewall issue, but not absolutely positive. Any help would sure be appreciated. I've troubleshooted for a week & am about ready to take it to a professional computer repair center. I've tried pinging the other machine and get a timeout error, which leads me to believe there may be a communication problem. If anyone has any suggestions, I would sure appreciate it. I'm just about ready to throw in the towel. I thought that networking 2 computers would be the simplest task. It's turned into one of the most complex nightmares I've ever had to deal with on computers. Thanks for any help.
    Kevin Kierer

    I double checked everything and file and printer sharing is turned on everywhere I can find to turn it on. Windows firewalls are configured correctly and have file & printer sharing on. I even turned both firewalls off & still was unable to access files on the XP machine. Internet works great on both machines. I can do a screen shot of the XP machine on the Vista machine and everything checks out as being connected & working properly. Something somewhere is blocking file access from the XP machine, but I cannot figure what it could be. I've uninstalled anything that I thought might be causing a problem and still get the "cannot access shared folder" message. It suggests a firewall issue, but as far as I can tell, there is no firewall blocking file sharing. The files share perfectly on the XP machine when I try to access the Vista files. It just won't do the reverse and when I try to use the networked printer on the Vista machine, the queue just holds the job forever and never prints. I also get a  timeout error when I try to ping the XP machine from the Vista machine. I get a "file path not found" error when I try to connect to the drive using Vista's networking controls. The XP computer icon only shows up once in awhile and when I do a map network drive command, it says it cannot find the path even though the path exists and is typed correctly. Here is all the information about my system. I certainly appreciate any suggestions as to what might get this network finally sharing files from my Vista machine. Thanks.

  • MyBook World Edition - Time Machine - AFP Issue

    So after 60 mins on the phone with the ppl at WD, it was determined that i most likely have any issue with Time Machine accessing the wd_backup partition of my mybookworld NAS drive. Simply put - I can access the drive via SMB ('cept for the backup partition - which is what i want anyway) but TM (nor the finder) wont access the backup partition at all.
    WD says its an AFP issue. Ive spent all day searching google and forums and I cant find a good answer. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Sorry I'm not adding anything positive but I too am having problems with my MBW NAS drive. Every time I try to connect with the "Public" drive, I get the "The operation cannot be completed because the original file for "Public" cannot be found." I connect through SMB as well but it is annoying. I never been able to connect to MBW-Backup. Again, sorry to piggyback but just wanted to let you know you are not alone in your search.

  • Sharing Files Over a Network from an External Drive

    I have a Macbook Pro that is running 10.5.6, and I have, recently, acquired another Mac that is running 10.5.6, as well. I decided that I wanted to share some files from my Macbook Pro. The setup for file sharing is a breeze, but I am having some issues. I choose folders from my Macbook Pro's internal drive, and I create two users, "alpha" and "beta." I give alpha privileges to share a folder called "A" and I give beta privileges to share a folder called "B." From my other Mac, I connect to my MBP, and I enter the correct credentials for each user, and "alpha" and "beta" have access to what was assigned to them earlier, respectively, folder "A" and "B."
    Everything seems to be great! However, the issue begins when my external drive comes into play. (It is formatted as Mac OS Extended Journaled.) I select a folder called "C," from my external drive, and give only privileges to user "gamma." I also select a folder called "D," also from my external drive, and only give privileges to user "delta."
    Whenever I login from my other Mac, I find a problem. If I login with "Gamma," I should only be able to view folder "C," but I can also view folder "D!" Whenever I login with "Delta," I should only be able to see folder "D," but I see folder "C," as well. I have fiddled around with many settings, and I have had no success. A few members on my network will be sharing files from my Macbook Pro, and I only want certain members to see certain folders. I've tried this with two different external drives, and they both exhibit the same issue. Is this something that can be fixed?
    Thanks for the help!

    I'm sure that someone has dealt with this. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

  • Can't connect to Windows shared file server

    I'm trying to connect to our Windows shared file server. I can add the drive and see it, however, when I open the folders nothing is there. I called Apple Support who said that it was most likely a Windows-related issue and that I may need to install some Windows driver on the PC the file server is on to get this to work (he wasn't exactly sure what the fix was for this). Has anyone experienced anything similar? And if so, what's the fix???

    Reinfire,
    sorry to horn in on this question, but i am having a similar problem, but in reverse. I am trying to connect from Win 8.1 to my mavericks iMac but it will not connect. I am sure that it's related to SMB but the fix you have posted did nothing for it.
    Any ideas?
