SLOW workstation connection with file server

I have an eMac running Server 10.3 with two firewire disk connected directly into the eMac to function as file servers. I have several diff. Macs connected to the file sharing server and have for six months. They all run 10.4.11 and all connect with the GO command and used to navigate various files and folders throughout the main PUBLIC folder. Suddenly Monday morning 2 workstations connect and navigate folders without problems and 3 other workstations just spin the beach ball when you try to go past first or second folder.
ALL machines connect without major problem (maybe a tad slower). I have looked at folders (as I can get to them) and view optioned turned off "calc all sizes". It was on in some of the windows and off in some but none were suddenly turned on anyway.
While beach ball spins I can open Safari, mail and can surf web, get mail, etc. no problem. I can even click on top of the one of the server folder windows and move it around on my desktop. When I let go and move curser it turns into beach ball.
Also, when I finally get fed up and go to Relaunch on the Finder in the dock, at the top "grayed out" it says application not responding?? Don't know what application it is referencing? I usually have to hit the Relaunch command twice. First time nothing happens, the second time it will immediately relaunch the Finder.

Had to get my off-site "Mac Expert" to delete some kind of p.list file or files that get corrupted by some server file (InDesign or Photoshop or Illustrator most likely) on my server. Don't know which one and it reappeared some time later and he had to do it again, but he could connect remotely and clear/delete the file. Has to be done from the command line so it is out of my league. Still waiting to see if we can find the corrupted file.

Very Slow Internet Connection with Leopard Server

I have build a new Leopard Server on a Dual G4 867 box, 1.38GB RAM, 10M external Ethernet Card on WAN side into ADSL router on 2Mbit/s connection where we have an 8 IP address range, nothing else contending for the bandwidth.
When I down load a file using my Leopard client directly on one of our external WAN IP ports, I get maximum throughput from the links of the order of 200kBytes/sec. When I use the same client working through the Leopard Server, which is acting as a NAT firewall router, I get throughputs of less than 1/20th of that, e.g. 10kBytes/sec or less.
I monitored the Leopard Server and it is under utilised in terms of CPU, RAM, disk I/O, port thruput, etc. I have also checked Activity Monitor and the whole machine is barely idling on resource usage, yet the throughput is abysmal.
Can anyone give me any clues as to why this might be? Any thoughts on what else to check?

They don't seem to have a 10.5 driver listed but Apple may have included one in Leopard (as in previous Tiger and Panther). You just "plunked" the card in?
It does seem Apple has done some major overhaul when it comes to (ethernet) drivers as they now supports flow-control also at 10/100 Mbit. You have the interface (duplex) set to autonegotiate?
Also my older Belkin (Broadcomm chip) "AirPort" PCI card only seems to be "semi supported" under Leopard as it is now reported as thirdparty but under Tiger it was udistingushable from a regular AirPort Extreme card.
Maybe an update will fix this?
Having said that the Realtek based cards isn't really know as the best working/quality ones.
I have some older 10/100 Asanté cards laying around and a cheap Realtek 8169 (gigabit) based card I havent tried yet.
I also noticed a soon two year old Intel iMac I got recently has a Marvell based ethernet interface so maybe other Marvell based cards would work in Macs (haven't really looked at what's present in Leopard driver wise). Marvell seems to get good reviews on Internet (SysKonnect cards). This iMac for example supports Jumbo frames and VLAN.

Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server

Adobe cloud has lost connection with the server, can't get adobe cloud to work so I can re-install photoshop to fix a corrupted DLL file.

*Adding new items/removing orphans*
Try iTunes Folder Watch or iTunes Library Updater. Folder Watch is much faster on the adding files front, can be set to run in the background and includes a useful exclusion feature, however it’s slow at removing orphans. iTLU is better for this although doing it manually after looking at a list of proposed removals generated by Folder Watch is probably faster still. iTLU can also be set to update iTunes when you've used 3rd party tools to change tag info.
You may need to amend the list of file types these programs look for. My list includes:
.mp3 .mp4 .m4a .m4b .m4p .m4v .mov .wav .aif .mid .ipa .ipg .ite .itlp .m4r .pdf
Note the last 6 types may not be recognised as already being in the library so should either be omitted from the search or you can add (at least for Folder Watch) individual exclusions for files you know are already in your library.

"The connection with the server was reset" Error Message

I am trying to download iTunes 8 for my new iPod that i got today.
However, when i am downloading the iTunesSetup.exe file, the file downloads normally until it gets to about 10.5MB.
After this a message pops up saying:

Has anyone else had this problem, if yes how do i resolve it???
Thanks in advance for any help!

"No connectivity with the server" error for one document but not the other, in the same document library

We have a number of users all of a sudden getting "No connectivity with the server. The file 'xxx' can't be opened because the server couldn't be contacted." errors trying to open MS Office docs (Word, Excel, etc.) in SharePoint with IE,
just by clicking the link and selecting the "Read Only" option. If they select the "Check Out and Edit" option, they can open the document no problem. One of my customers gets the error on one document but not the other, in
the same document library! The older document (a weekly report) was copied and renamed as per standard procedure. She can read the older document, but not the new one.
It is definitely a profile issue, as other people have logged onto the machines of the users with problems and do not get the error. We have also renamed people's c:\user profile folders and the corresponding Profilelist registry entry and the newly
created profile does not experience the error for these people. Renaming the profile back restores all their personal settings but the error reappears. When we copied the old profile's folder structure into the new profile, many of the user settings
were restored (but not all, like Dreamweaver settings) but the error did not appear. We think that the system folders files (like AppData) weren't totally copied over so we're going to run another test using xcopy. We are rebooting between
logons to make sure all files are unlocked.
The laptops and computers are mainly 32bit, Win7 Enterprise running IE9 and Office 2010 Professional Plus, but there's a few 64bit machines as well. The SharePoint farm has 1 WFE, 1 App Server running search and CA, and a shared database server running SQL
2005 SP4. SharePoint is 64bit MOSS 2007 with the latest CU.
We've checked the logs on the client as well as on the server and there aren't any helpful entries. We've also run Process Monitor, also with no helpful entries. We're planning to run something like Fiddler next.
It's not everyone, because there are many people are accessing the SharePoint system and the same files. It is also not a permission thing, as we've tested by giving the users elevated permissions with no changes. One person experiencing
the errors is a Site Collection Admin. That same person ran a test where I coped a simple Excel file into a Document Library which contained a problem file. They were able to open it Read Only no problems that day, but the next day, the same
file gave them an error. In their case, they usually get a "xxx is not checked out" error and only occasionally get the "No connectivity with the server" error.
We've tried lots of things including:
Deleting IE cache
Deleting SharePoint Drafts and webcache folder contents
Running IE without add-ons
Upgrading and Downgrading IE
Uninstalling and re-installing IE
Reinstalling our SSL certs
Repairing Office
Removing and then adding back in the Microsoft Office "Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Support" Office Tool
Deleting all HKLM and HKLU Office registry settings
Toggling IE Compatibility Settings
Toggling the IE Automatic Logon option
Toggling the location of checked out files
Adding the site in the trusted sites list
Adding the site to the WebClient\Parameters registry locations
Making sure the WebClient service is started
Rebooting the machine (lol :)
This is becoming a serious issue, not just because of the inconvenience for the users having to check out every document they want to read, but we have some files with macros that open up other documents to run which are now failing. There aren't
"check out" workarounds for some of those macros.
We're planning to open a ticket with Microsoft, but I'm throwing it out here first in case someone has run into this before, or may have some suggestions on what to try next. Thanks!
-Richard.
PS I think this needs to be in the "General" forum instead?

It took three days of dedicated troubleshooting, but I have found the cause of the errors, and a couple of fixes. It helped tremendously that my own machine was throwing the error. I have scheduled a couple of users to work with me to test the
various fixes, to see which one works best, so the story isn't over yet.
I had backed up my c:\users profile folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList registry key so I could restore my profile after I was done. I made a copy of the profile folder and was using that for awhile,
but then made another copy where I had deleted a lot of content out of it so that the copies would go faster. Since a newly created profile did not have errors, I was trying to copy back as much of the profile as possible to make it easier for our users
to get back to work. Instead of blowing away their profile and starting from scratch (which we know worked) I wanted to narrow down what was causing the error and just skip that from the restore. The concept was to keep as much as the users profile
in tact (application settings, etc.) not just restoring their desktop and My Documents folders.
When we first tested a few weeks ago, simply copying the folder contents didn't reproduce the error. I then tried xcopy, but got the "can't read file" error. Then I tried robocopy, and ran into the "junction" problem.
I went back to xcopy, and found that placing the excludes.txt file in the windows/system32 folder eliminated the error.
So the process went as follows:
Reboot and log into the machine as another user
Delete the profile and associated registry key
Reboot and log into the machine as the affected user, creating a new profile, and there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
xcopy the contents of the skinned-down backed-up profile to the newly created profile
Reboot and log in as the affected user, and the error occurs
Repeat the above, but add items in the excludes.txt file to see what, when eliminated, causes the error not to appear in the last step
I eventually found that skipping the c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\Microsoft\office\14.0 folder allowed the entire profile to be copied over without the error occurring. That was strange, because we've cleaned out the cache folders
before which didn't fix the issue.
So I went about it the opposite way, and tried to delete the 14.0 folder from the restored profile, and after reboot, the error still occurred.
What eventually worked was deleting the 14.0 folder and copying over a 14.0 folder from a newly created profile!
One way to do this was to:
Reboot and log in as another user
Rename the c:\users profile folder
Rename the appropriate [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList] registry key
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
Reboot and log in as the other user
Copy the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder to the other user's desktop
Delete new profile folder, and rename the backup to be the production folder
Delete the C:\Users\<profile folder>\AppData\Local\microsoft\Office\14.0 folder and then paste the 14.0 copy from the desktop
Reboot and log in as the affected user, confirm that there is no error
We've tried this on a couple machines and it works. I had to run Windows Explorer as Administrator to access the other profile's folders.
We've also successfully copied a 14.0 folder created by one profile on one affected computer over another profile's folder on another computer, eliminating the error, so we're trying that first, as that is fewer steps.
We may attempt to script this, but the self-help instructions are only 5 lines long:
Reboot and log into the affected computer with another account
Go to <link to location of 14.0 folder on network> and copy the 14.0 folder
Run Windows Explorer as Administrator
Go to c:\users\<profile folder>\appdata\local\microsoft\office and delete the 14.0 folder, and paste the copied 14.0 folder (trying to overwrite it makes Win7 want to merge the folders)
Reboot and log into your normal account, and confirm the error is gone
I'll come back and report after we go into the field with this fix, but after the few tests, I am cautiously optimistic that this is it.

I have a ipad mini and it says that it has perect wifi yet when i go into safari it says unable to connect with the server how can i fix this?

I have a ipad mini and i have had it for less then a year, it says that i have perfect wifi up in the left corner where the wifi is always at but when ever i go into the built in safari it says that it is unable to connect with the server. How can i fix this because with out it connecting to the server or internet it is kind of useless to me. I do have ios7 if that helps

The wifi symbol only indicates the presence/signal strength of wifi. Not that you are connected.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

SQL Server Reporting services. failed to establish connection with project server. verify the url is correct.

Dear All,
I'm working on reporting of Project Server 2010, while configuring SQL SERVER REPORTING SERVICES faced issue after two complete days of troubleshooting along with this gone through plenty of forums, unable to figure out any solution. So finally posting on
technet in order to find solution.
ISSUE/PROBLEM:
At initial configured the SQL REPORTING CONFIGURATION to sharepoint integrated database (SQL SERVER is installed on seperate machine), change the service to Domain Account and also installed sharepoint add in on server story was fine at this point. Furthur
moving to SHAREPOINT ADMIN console and while configuring the Sharepoint Integrated Reporting continuously facing this error:
Failed to establish connection with report server. . . . (Snapshot is attached for your further reference).
My point of concern is that whenerver i try to open the REPORT SERVER URL on project server machine it prompts me to enter username and password but whenever i insert the domain credentails it didnt accept though it can be accesible by using the credentials
of Local Admin of sql server machine. So i wana come to know whether its permission issue if yes then where i should mention the domain credentials.?
REGARDS DANISH DANIE

Dear Paul,
I am able to open the URL (http://psdb/ReportServer )using
domian credential and page open with these contents
Reporting Services Error
The configuration parameter SharePointIntegrated is set to True but Share Point Object Model cannot be loaded
Second,
Configured the SPN on domain controller , performed the steps required to change the AUTHENTICATION in rsreportserver.config
file also done the registry settings to disable the loop back settings.
Same error still ! .... what should i do now ???

Documents not Opening, No connectivity with the server

Morning,
Strange problem we are encountering that seems to be with a specific image build we have of Windows 7 Enterprise x64, with and without Service Pack 1 using IE8 x32 and Office 2010 x64. When we try to open Word, Excel, or specifically PowerPoint documents
on our new SharePoint 2010 server we get the following error: No connectivity with the server.
Here is a JPG of the error message:
http://www.gofsj.com/fsj/uploads/caa612c339cccaf12448e34a65c83d7d_erroropeningdocument.jpg
A "normal" install of Windows 7 Enterprise x64, with no custom configuration (but getting the domain group policies) can view the files on SharePoint 2010, no problems. Unfortunately, we've already deployed the "odd" image out to 50+
machines.
We have tried resetting Internet Explorer, uninstalling Office 2010 x64 and installing Office 2010 x32 with no luck.
What is really going on? Is it a SharePoint plugin that isn't installed? Is it Internet Explorer isn't configured correctly, or has DLLs that aren't registered? Or something with Office 2010? Is there a way to capture more than this
Error Message? This is what pretty much stamps in the Event Viewer too...

This may be related to the Network and Sharing Center stating the computer is not connected to any network, and the Windows Firewall stating it is on a Public Network. Even though the machine is connected and running on the LAN.
I added SERVICE with full control (and pushed it down to registry subkeys) on HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList. Then I Enabled/Disabled the LAN Adapter. Could also reboot, or physically unplug the cable. Not
sure if restarting a specific service would accomplish the same thing or not.
In the Network and Sharing Center it came up as on the domain. Windows Firewall came up as being on a Domain. And I was able to open PowerPoint and Excel documents on the SharePoint site.
So for now, looks like this is fixed.

On startup my G4 "Connect to file server "G5 mac" as...

I have switched off all the extensions on the G4 but when it loads the desktop it opens the window "On startup my G4 "Connect to file server "G5 mac" as..." It won't let me type any login so I can't remove it or connect to the G5.
How do I stop this appearing?

My G5 (OS 10.3.9) decided to do this today too. I can't launch the Finder without it wanting to connect to another machine in the office, and the Finder locks up as soon as it displays the Connect to file server dialog.
I have SSHed in and removed the com.apple.finder.plist file but that didn't help. The only thing I can do is boot with the ethernet cable disconnected.
I am anxious to know how to stop this.
