Slightly Different Networking Problem (error -36)

Hello all,
I had my G5 and windows 200 machine running through a dlink DI604 router just fine - they were both online and I could access my shared folders on the PC no problem. Then, it all stopped - strange, but stuff happens, right? I get this error code:
The Finder cannot complete the operation becuase some data in "smb://PCsipaddress/foldername" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)
Both machines can still connect to the internet.
I tried accessing files on a different drive -same results.
First step was to repair disc permissions - no change.
I can ping both ip addresses, Mac to PC and PC to Mac.
I can't access Mac to PC or PC to Mac.
Windows Sharing is turned enabled on the Mac, and there are shared folders on the PC.
I've got them both on the same workgroup and I'm pretty sure the Mac user permissions on the PC are correct, but I don't even get a chance to verify the username and password when trying to access the PC from the Mac because it goes straight to that error -36
Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance,
mario

Sorry sorry - there's an NVIDIA firewall set up on default medium settig on the PC, but nothing's changed in it since it was working last.
Yes, there's folders and drives to share - none work.
This might be connected to a firmware update to the router, but I'm sure tha things were working fine after that, (upgraded a week ago, started having problems yesterday).
Another thing that might help:
When trying to access the PC from the mac, I'm making a network connection and entering:
smb://[ipofPC]/foldername
It takes about 3 minutes to come back with an error, and it does the same thing if I enter the wrong ip address as well. This makes me think that it's not a password thing, but some protocol on the Mac?
thanks,
mario

  • S440 - Slightly different WIFI problem

    I've read the other lengthy thread on the S440 wifi problem and i'm not sure if mine is slightly different as it has nothing to do with hebernation or sleep mode.
    Basically, twice in the last week my wifi has dropped out. I've still been connected to the router, and all other devices in the home are connected and working fine, but my S440 cannot connect to the internet and i get the small yellow exclamation mark over my wifi icon. 
    The first time it happened, it eventually fixed itself the following day via the network centre trouble shooting, and it came up as some sort of IP address issue. 
    It happened again last night but it wouldn't fix itself this time. Although this morning, I booted up at the office and its working again.
    Its definitely something to do with the laptop as both time all other devices have been ok.
    Before i start downloading new drivers, i just wanted to check.

  • Slightly different iTunes problem

    Hi all, I have read several pages of posts but no one seems to have my exact problem. I plugged my receiver into my Airport base station with a Monster mini to RCA cable. Everything on my iBook indicates things are connected and recognized. My printer and internet work great. When I open iTunes, it gives me the option of using either my computer or my network speakers in the drop box in the bottom right corner. When I click "computer" I hear my music fine. When I click on my network (which I have done both with and without a password), the bar at the top of iTunes says it's connecting to my remote speakers. Then, iTunes begins to play. However, for the life of me I cannot figure out how to actually HEAR the music from my stereo. Am I being stupid? Do I need to set the stereo to some kind of setting that I am not doing? Right now it's just set to FM. I tried AM, DVD, and VHS to no avail. From the Airport manual, I followed the troubleshooting advice and made sure that the volume on my receiver is turned up after I selected and unselected the "disable remote volume control" box. I seem to have run out of troubleshooting ideas. Please help!!!!
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    what input did you connect the RCA cables to on your reciever? this is the source you need to select on the reciever to be able to hear the music so make sure its selected. you may have inadvertanly plugged the RCA cables into something designated as an "output" whereas you want an "input"
    you could also bring your powered pc speakers over to the airport express and plug them into it to make sure that the music is playing. that would narrow down the problem is your connection from the AX to the reciever for sure..
    PS - If your stereo reciever has a free optical input, the mini plug to optical (toslink) cable will give you a nicer sound than the RCA cables...

  • Slightly different WIFI problem I suppose

    I've read the problem with wifi for most of the people who updated to 3.1.2.. and I am in the list. I updated the other night and haven't been able to use wifi or bluetooth.
    Seems like I read that most people's wifi was greyed out.. Mine is not. I can go to the About section and it shows a wifi address.. and bluetooth. Although when I try to access the router, it doesn't show up at all. Just keeps searching.
    The odd thing today was that I went to a friends house and it showed their network for a few seconds.. and I tried connecting.. and then it lost it a couple seconds later and would never show the network again.
    I have tried restoring the phone.. resetting.. everything you can think of. I can't get it to work. This is the iPhone 3G 8GB model. Had the 2.2 firmware before I updated. Has anyone had this problem? Wifi address shows up.. but keeps scanning and can't find the network.

    When you restored your iPhone with iTunes, did you restore from your iPhone's backup, or as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup?
    If no change after resetting network settings on your iPhone and you did the former only, try the latter.
    If no change after restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, time to give AppleCare a call or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby.

  • Slightly different keychain problem - won't let me unlock.

    When I first started looking at this, I had a username.keychain with all my passwords in it. Some applications, when trying to access passwords kept insisting I was typing the wrong keychain password. I noticed there was a login.keychain that was empty. No matter what I do, I can't unlock my keychains. I tried making a copy, doing a repair - nothing lets me see or change my passwords.
    I tried making a back up copy, deleting, then pulling a copy from my previous back up - and starting keychain - it didn't work either - ignoring my username.keychain. I copied everything back - and same issue.

    no go. It still asks me for a password on any access to keychain items - and no password works. There is no chance I've forgotten the password - it just doesn't work. I've got a hundred entries in this file and it's pretty irritating. I've tried the go to root and run fix from there that was posted on another site - no good. I've run disk repair permissions - no change. This isn't tied to host name or any other entity is it? Just user name and password with some kind of encryption on the passwords in the file - how could it be going so wrong so many ways?

  • Error The PC and the printer are connected to different networks

    Hi,
    I'm trying to set up my C4580 on my laptop, but I'm getting  the following error after the diagnostic test:
    The PC and the printer are connected to different networks(237DB2A87D and 66616B65). They must be connected to the same network. This can happen when you use the manufacturer's default network name (SSID) and another nearby network is using the same name. 
    My setup is a Linksys router WRT546,  my laptop is conntected wireless to the router.  I have two other desktop computers that are directly connected to the router.  Both the desktops are able to connect wireless to the printer.  My router SSID name is 'Blair Office' with WPA security.
    I get a internet connect fine with the laptop, but can't get the new printer to setup.
    I saw another post that talked about 'Print the C45** Network Configuration Page', but not sure how to do this
    Thanks
    Diane

    This reply may be late for this user, but it might be helpful for any current users.
    I managed to change the modem's IP address to match that of the printer. In my case the printer worked fine wirelessly until I moved to a new place and installed a new modem. Here is what I did to solve the problem:
    1. At the printer, click on the wireless button, wireless settings, print network configuration page. This will print a page with the printer's IP address (in my case: 192.168.0.13)
    2. I accessed my modem via the internet browser, typing 192.168.1.1 (this is one of the default addresses (192.168.0.1 is also common). Default user and password is admin (usually). There I changed the modem's IP address to 192.168.0.1 and the range to start at 192.168.0.13 (my printer's IP address).
    3. I saved the settings (the modem will reboot and you will be offline, it may take some 20 seconds before the modem is visible again).
    4. Reconnect to the modem and check if internet is still working. Then try to install the printer again.
    This worked for me after I read several other postings.
    Good luck!

  • Problems assigning different locations to different Network Names/AirPorts

    At my office, I have two different networks:
    1. AirPort where I need to use a static IP setting on a my Mac.
    2. Airport where I need to use a DHCP.
    I would like to assign a network name (AirPort A) to one Location A and another network name (Airport B) to Location B.
    Previous to the Intel-Chip Macs this was no problem at all. Then the Intel-Chip Macs came which had 10.4 installed, and it was no longer possible to assign certain network names to certain network locations. However, with 10.5 this problem was solved until most recently, when I realized on a few of my Macs that it would not switch to the other AirMac, even when I switched the locations. The proper network names are assigned to each network locations.
    It is likely a problem with Keychain, but I even tried to reset my Keychains and also erased the complete "login" Keychain and created a new "login" Keychain. But I am still experiencing the same problems.
    Has anyone experienced the same problems and found a way to solve this problem.

  • Samsun Gusto 3 Unable to access My Verizon- Error, Network Problem, Network Unavailable

    I have a new Samsung Gusto 3.
    When I click on Settings- My Verizon, I get an error -  Unable to access My Verizon- Error, Network Problem, Network Unavailable. My wife has a similar phone and hers works just fine.
    I have had the phone now for about two weeks and the problem is still there.
    John

    I do not know what ‘data blocks’ are. This phone is brand new – now only two weeks old. I brought it to replace an older phone. That older phone had no problem accessing ‘My Verizon’ – so when I did a simple ‘replace’ of my old phone with the new one – everything should continue to work as before. BUT it does not access My Verizon.
    That is all I know. When I bought the new phone, I just followed the prompts to transfer my account to the new one.
    My plan is Basic pay as you go.

  • "Network service error" game apps that require internet connection working fine, internet signal strong. Safari working, but YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and App Store won't work?! Tried resetting network settings but problem persists?

    Safari working fine, as are game apps that require internet connection.
    I can not get AppStore, YouTube app, Facebook app or twitter app to load anything as 'network service error" comes up.
    I have the latest update 7.2 and have tried resetting network settings, anyone else have this problem?! How do I fix it?

    I did try that one. But for some reason it still does not help. The strange thing stays that I can acces Twitter and other Apps. But still nos Safari/App Store. Only when I am on Wi-Fi.

  • TS3367 FaceTime has a problem with calling (audio, video) between two devices when they are in the different networks.

    Hi,
    I have a problem with calling by FaceTime when me and my friend are in the different networks.
    When i call to another device I see this call on that device and tap to the answer button after that i see a message "connecting" but the first device is trying to call in during about 1 minute and finish the call.
    But if both of the devices have connected to the one network (wifi) it works correct.

    Actually, it started working fine when I told it to capture
    sound at 11kHz.. I should have tried that first, before making a
    fuss here, sorry. Looks like some weird glitch, a driver problem
    maybe, but anyway, switching to 11kHz seems to have solved
    it.

  • Problem using Tuxedo from different network

    We are using Tuxedo (7.1) with Clarify eFrontOffice.
    We are trying to access Tuxedo from a different network. We have a NAT address and opened the port for WSL (48800) and also a range (specified in the ubbconfig and compiled) specified for the WSH. When the Clarify client is started, it is connecting to the WSL on port 48800. When tuxedo returns the WSH port to the Client, it is also returning the IP of the server. Since the IP is not recognized in the 2nd network the communication is failing. Is there a way to retun server name instead of IP or a different IP?
    Thanx

    Raju,
    When using Network Address Translation with /WS you should specify the -H
    option to WSL (after the -- option) so that the address of the WSH can be
    mapped back to an address that the client will understand. A bug related to
    the WSL -- -H option was fixed at Tuxedo 7.1 rolling patch level 165, so you
    should obtain the latest 7.1 rolling patch if you are running at an earlier
    patch level.
    The description of the -H option at
    http://e-docs.bea.com/tuxedo/tux71/html/rf537.htm is as follows:
    [-H external-netaddr]
    Specifies the complete network address to be used as a well known address
    template of the WSH process. The address will be combined with a WSH network
    address to generate a well known network address used by the Workstation
    client to connect to a WSH process. It has the same format as the -n option
    except that it substitutes the port number with same length of character M
    to indicate the position of the combined network address will be copied from
    the WSH network address. For example when address template is
    0x0002MMMMdddddddd and WSH network address is 0x00021111ffffffff then the
    well known network address will be 0x00021111dddd dddd. When address
    template starts with "//" network address type assumes to be IP based and
    the TCP/IP port number of WSH network address will be copied into the
    address template to form the combined network address. This feature is
    useful when Workstation client needs to connect to a WSH through a router
    which performs Network Address Translation.

  • How do I access a USB server on a "different network segment"?

    I have tried posting this question in the Server community but with no response, however I believe the solution will be achived through Terminal and I believe there will be those versed in the use of Terminal here, so here goes.
    I have a USB Server with four ports attached to my ethernet LAN. If I enter the IP address into Safari it shows me the Server details and the details of any item attached to any of the ports. However I cannot access anything on the server. If I put the IP address into Connect to Server I get an error message. Apparently the Server is on a "different network segment". How can I overcome this?
    Attached pages from Safari.

    MyBook USB=junk.
    If you search the forums you will find many users with problems with this particular brand.
    Does this drive have an external AC power supply brick? If not, Apple recommends the use of a powered USB hub.
