Since Mavericks, I can't mount ISO files on my Mac over a network

Since upgrading to OS X Mavericks, when I want to mount an ISO file on my Mac from my Windows 8.1 PC, I get an error saying it can't mount it. I have to copy the file to the PC to mount the ISO file.
Is this due to how Mavericks switched from AFP/SMB to SMB2? Is there a way to fix this?

Same issue here.  Anyone have a fix for this - how to open an iso file in Mavericks?

  • Can't Mount ISO Files

    Hello.
    Here's my problem.
    Downloaded two zip files, one containing a file ending in "iso.1", the other one "iso.2". Deleted the numbers and left the files with "iso" endings.
    Neither using Disc Utility, nor Toast Titanium, nor burning discs with those files and inserting them back into the computer could help mount them.
    As the result, there is either a popup window saying no mountable files were found, or the mounted file contains a large audio track (it's supposed to be software!)
    Any solutions, please?

    I'm slightly confused about the circumstances under which you obtained these two files.
    It sounds like you downloaded two different .zip files from some source, and unarchiving one of them resulted in a .iso.1 file, and the other resulted in a .iso.2 file.
    And they're supposed to contain 1 piece of software between the two of them???
    OK... in that case, I've got a couple suggestions:
    1. first, try putting the .1 and .2 back and opening the first one in DiskUtility. If disk utility is disinclined to open it, launch disk utility, then drag the file to it's dock icon while holding apple-option (or something like that)
    2. second, try concatenating the files. that would be wierd, but it's worth a try... to do this, open a new terminal window, and then type:
    "cat "
    (don't type the quotes in), then drag the first file (the one originally named .iso.1), then hit space, then drag in the second file (when you drag a file into the terminal, it will automatically fill in it's path in the terminal. if you're comfortable in the terminal and know what I mean, you can just type the path yourself.) then type:
    ">~/Desktop/newtestisofile.iso" (leave out the quotes again) and finally hit return. This will put the two files together into 1 on the desktop which will be called newtestisofile.iso, which you should try opening in diskutility
    3. in the terminal again, type "file " and then drag in the first file, and hit return. post the output here so we can see it. do the same thing with the second file
    4. just give us a link for this download, so that we can try directly, rather than having to tell you to try stuff.

  • How can I sync all files in 2 Macs using local network only?

    I am looking to equip a small office with 2 Macs, iMac and MBAir. I would like for all files to be synced (either automatically, daily, or worst case, on demand). The trick is that this has to be in the local network only, as these are sensitive files. There will be a QNAP NAS on the network as well if it matters.
    Maybe it is possible to setup both Time Machines to look at the same folder on the NAS? Any ideas on how to make this possible?

    Here are three ways to do it. None of the ways is automatic:
    (1) Get an Acrobat.com account, and copy your files via Acrobat.com:
    http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3440
    (2) If you have a computer with iTunes, and you're syncing your iPad and iPhone to this computer, your PDF files already exist on the computer. In iTunes, select the device. Then go to the Apps folder, scroll down to the File Sharing section and select Adobe Reader. All your PDF files are shown and you can save the ones you want to your computer hard drive. Then import them in a similar way via iTunes.
    (3) Use a Dropbox account. Install Dropbox on both your iPad and iPhone. Copy the PDF files via Dropbox.

  • Can't import ISO Files in VM Manager because of empty Server Pool Drop Down

    Hello,
    I have the problem I can't import ISO files to my ressources because in the import mask the Server Pool Name Drop Down is empty. In the Virtual Machine Templates mask the Server Pool Name is available and I have already one VM running with a oracle template.
    The Server is 2.2.1 and the vm manager is 2.2.0. The server is a Pentium 4 3.2 GHz with 4 MB of RAM. The High Availabiliy Mode is enabled for this server pool.
    Has anyone an idea what the problem could be?
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thx in forward
    Ben

    I am not expert in this area myself, but I believe the issue may be with shared storage changes that are needed for high availability.
    The following reference may help: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15444/ha.htm

  • I can't print CS5 files from my Mac OSX (Mavericks). Can print from other applications. Help please?

    I can't print CS5 files from my Mac OSX (Mavericks). CS5 crashes when sent to print.  Can print from other applications (Word, etc.).

    I just tried installing them. I got the message that "Some updates failed to install" (including for CS5), to quit and try again. I was curious and tried again to print and lo and behold, I could print!  I'm still nervous that not everything installed and wonder how to get a complete install.

  • HT1145 I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.

    I can't see my files on my USB shared drive.  It shows there is lots of space taken up, but I can't access the files via my Mac.  How do I see them?  I also can't see them on my iPad using FileBrowser.

    You don't have access to it to configure it via Time Machine? You lost me on that one, Time Machine is used for Backup.
    Here is a basic article on the first setup and what you should see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1178
    To configure Time Capsule you should be using "Airport Utility" 5.3 or higher that is located in the Utilities folder. You can tell if its version 5.3 because the icon will have blue lines instead of orange lines like the older versions. Since you are running Leopard 10.5.6 and you ran Software Update you are probably already running the latest 5.3 version.
    The light flashing amber means you haven't entered enough information so that it can get to the internet. Once you have that info entered the light will turn green.
    If your absolutely sure your CAT5 cables are good you can try a hard reset. I think you have to push the reset button on the back and hold it for 5 seconds or so until the amber light blinks rapidly, then when you release the button it does the reset then.

    Hope this helps! If not I would probably call AppleCare support or see if you can exchange it.

  • How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

  • How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
    If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
    This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
    If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
    If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.

  • HT204382 how can I transfer wma files to my mac?

    how can I transfer wma files to my mac?

    A Macintosh Classic (http://support.apple.com/kb/sp198) has a SCSI hard drive. Even though the hard drive can be removed and placed in an external SCSI enclosure, it is not going to be easy to find a way of connecting it to a modern Mac. That would normally require a USB-to-SCSI adapter, which may or may not be supported under the latest operating system versions.
    The easiest method of transferring files from a Macintosh Classic may be via an external USB floppy drive connected to the modern Mac. 1.44 MB Mac-formatted floppy disks can be used for such transfers (not 800K).
    A SCSI Zip (100) drive could in principle be connected to the SCSI port of the Macintosh Classic. The Zip disk could then be moved to a USB Zip (100) drive connected to a modern computer.
    The Macintosh Classic does not have built-in Ethernet, nor a slot for an Ethernet card (certain other "classic" Macintosh computers do have the ability to hold an Ethernet card). There are some external solutions (such as SCSI-to-Ethernet adapters), but with limitations. For a networking overview, the http://www.applefool.com/se30/ web page could perhaps be of interest.
    It is also possible to arrange a null-modem connection between a Macintosh Classic and a modern computer, providing that a USB-to-serial adapter is attached to the latter (appropriate terminal emulation programs are needed on both sides).

  • Can't upload any files from my mac to the Internet

    I am new to Macbook, and this obviously never happened before
    So, the problem is:
    I can't upload any files from my Mac anywhere (Facebook, Instagram, etc)
    I can't attach files to e-mails.
    any files that are on my desktop, folders - they just turn in grey and I can't choose them.
    The only way I can do it is by going to "ALL FILES" where I have to search through all the files that are on my Mac
    Keep in mind that this is a glitch, because earlier it was all fine and normal
    To see what I mean I am uploading a skreen shot of attemp of uploading files to Fb.
    Can anybody help? Can it be some sort of virus?

    Okay I had the same problem but I figured it out.  When you go to choose file, all the links are greyed out.  Use two fingers simulatiously and click down on the file you want, then choose "quick look" from the option menu.  This will open a preview of your document and make the open button usable.  Close the preview, and then select the open button. 
    The site I was trying to use says it only supports IE, so maybe that is what causes the problem.
    Hope it works for you!

    I have transferred a load of files from my PC to my iMac using the migration assistant.  The message on both machines say that the process was successful but I can not find the files on the mac.  Any ideas?

    When you use Migration Assitant it creates another user account and puts your files there. Please log out of your normal account and log into the new account. Had you use Setup Assistant when it asked if you were migrating that would not have occured. You have a couple of options, combine the two accounts (not recommended) or start over, use Setup Assistant and have everything in one user account. Here is a link to Pondin's guide for Lion Setup Assistant tips however if you want to combine the two accounts he has addressed that in
