SMB Direct connect Issues and error -36 (work around?)

I use the SMB command to connect from a Imac, to a Windows 7 machine.   Typically on a fresh restart of both machines the connection would be quick and fast transfer speeds.   However after a while I would get disconnected and after logging back in, would get slow connections and typically get an error -36 when trying to transfer bigger files.     What I did notice was that when the Windows machine would go to sleep, and come back online,  these symptoms would occur.  
What I decided to do, was turn off any type of sleep mode and power saving options on the network device. for the windows machine.   As naturally I would still get disconnected every once in a while,  once I connect I do not have anymore issues.    This has worked now for the last couple of days, so I assume I can consider this a work around.   
It seems that if the SMB connection gets disconnected from the other computer, the Mac will start giving errors.    I am not sure if this is really the mac issue, but this has only happened when I updated to Yosemite.  
Let me know if anyone else has this problem, and has success with this solution. 

If your MacBook is using wifi, connect your ATV to it using an Ethernet cable and turn on Internet sharing in the Sharing section of the System Preferences for the Ethernet NIC in the MacBook, then set up the ATV for a TCP/IP connection in the General -> Network section of the ATV Settings menu.

    The Game Center is "unable to load data due to network connectivity issues or errors".
    My internet is fine: all other apps that do not rely on the Game Center work, as does my browser and other online functions; additionally, a friend's iPhone connects to his Game Center perfectly while he is sitting next to me.
    Closing the Game Center app and then reopening it is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then logging back in, and then reopening the Game Center is ineffective. Opening the options for the Game Center in the settings, logging out of my Apple ID, then reopening the Game Center app and logging back in from there is ineffective.
    This issue has gone on for more than a month, and so the phone has gone through all variations of "turn it off then back on again, refresh the system, etc etc" that are the basic first suggestions for trouble shooting.
    One game app, which required a Game Center profile to launch, stopped working entirely, and would return a message saying something like "connect to the Game Center". I eventually deleted it to free up space. Other games which can be linked to the Game Center to connect with friends simply fail to link, returning "Game Center unavailable". This is the aspect that is currently bothering me the most: I cannot play games with friends unless the app can also link to Facebook and connect to friends from there.
    When I open the Game Center, I see the following screen. The bubbles float gently, and it seems as if I had the ability to update my "status". However doing so results in a message that has vanished once the app is reopened.
    Upon tapping Games, either the bubble from the main screen or the option on the ribbon at the bottom, the following screen appears. Clicking on Challenges shows a message that achievements must be viewed to issue a challenge. Clicking achievements results in a message that games must be connected (and from my friend's phone I know I have several apps that should appear).
    Upon tapping friends, it does show me a list of suggested friends pulled from Facebook, but attempting to send a friend request results in the following screen. After accepting the error box, the "send" button for the request is grayed out and unavailable regardless of adding or deleting friends and/or an accompanying message.
    In short, the Game Center is completely unresponsive for no discernible reason, and this problem began with no warning and is now long term. Though my iPhone is older (a 4s), my friend's is even older (a regular 4) and works fine.

    I am having the very same problem on my iPad running ios 7. All is fine on my iPhone it opens no problem - this is running on ios 8. I wish they would fix it.

  • Error 3256 work around - Switch speaker to computer then back to remote

    I have found a quick Error 3256 work around. Switch the speaker to computer (drop box in bottom right corner of iTunes display) then back to the remote speaker. This beats starting and restarting iTunes.
    Background: I have been using my airport express to stream music from iTunes on my PowerBook G4 to my stereo. Since the latest iTunes update I have been getting error 3256 when I try to start playing music after the computer has been in sleep mode. Stopping and restarting iTunes would solve the problem until the next time the computer went to sleep. By accident I discovered that switching the speaker setting to computer and back clears the problem.

    Thanks, that simple switch worked for me too (after I had updated firmware on the airport express to 6.2 and it still did not work)

  • SMB/NAS connection issues

    I've read through everything I can find on this issue and there appears to be no solution to SL breaking SMB connections to an NAS. I have a no-name NAS with no password protection at all (and I have no access to change/upgrade the firmware of the NAS). When I try to connect, via CMD-K or in Terminal, I get the same error as everyone else seems to be encountering. The solution to use a password in caps doesn't apply since the NAS isn't password protected. Nor does the port 139 solution or adding to my /etc/hosts file. Does anyone have a working solution, or should I just trash my NAS (with all my vids, music and pics on it) since Apple obviously doesn't want its users to use anything other than a Time Capsule.

    Yes they have non-existent tech support, but since this NAS worked fine in 10.4 and 10.5, I don't believe it's a problem with the NAS. It was only after the upgrade to 10.6 that it could no longer connect. Since there's a couple of threads already about SL SMB issues, I definitely don't think i'm alone in having these issues. It's a shame that I have to consider downgrading to an older OS (or have to buy a new NAS) just to get what was previously working, working again. Buying a new NAS isn't really an option for me right now, since the NAS is working fine (all my Windows and other devices connect fine to it, just the MacBook can't anymore). My point of the question was really to see if anyone had a definitive answer or solution to this problem, since the ones i've seen suggested don't seem to solve the problem for everyone.

  • Can anyone help with a WRT54G connection issue - it just stopped working

    I have a Dell running Windows XP.  I have a DSL connection with a Westell 6100 modem connected to a Linksys WRT54G router connected to my main computer.  I use the router for a wireless connection to my laptop.  This setup worked fine for years - until a few days ago.  I no longer have internet access on my laptop and main computer.
    If I connect from the modem directly to the main computer, I have internet access.  But as soon as I put the router back in - I have no access.
    All the appropriate lights on the modem and router are lit.  When I do try to access the internet I get the dreaded PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED.  When I run the diagnostic, the error log shows: "Not all base service provider entries could be found in the winsock catalog. A reset is needed".  I don’t know if this is a standard catch-all error or not?
    Everything was fine until a few days ago when I just lost access.  Do I need a new router?  I hate to buy one and then find out something was corrupted on my computer instead. :-(
    Thanks!

    When connected from modem to PC directly (no router) and I type in ip[config /all (don't know if this is what i should do) -- I get:
    IP Address 192.168.1.100
    Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
    Default Gateway 192.168.1.1
    DHCP Server 192.168.1.1
    DNS Servers 192.168.1.1
    Does this mean I should try to change the LinkSys Router?
    I will go look there next.

  • Direct Connect OSPF and BGP AWS failover setup

    Hi,
    We recently installed AWS Direct Connect which was successful but now we are looking at the best way to  automatically fail over if our Direct Connect fails to route via our back VPN.
    The setup
    Cisco 6500 distributes routes via OSPF internally to all production environments with one area set.
    A second Cisco 2901 was installed to support the AWS Direct Connect which uses BGP with a single ASN. This router is connected to the Cisco 6500 and now within the OSPF area.  Static routes exist to the Cisco 2901 currently which unless we physically detach from the network fail over wont work.
    What we want to achieve
    The Cisco 2901 Direct Connect to be the default AWS route until we have a link issue or alike and dynamically fail over to our VPN via the firewall to AWS.  What we are confused is do we advertise these BGP routes within OSPF or should we setup BGP on the Cisco 6500? 
    I appreciate your time.

  • Mailbox Move Issues and Errors - Exchange 2010 to 2013

    I'm trying to move mailboxes from 2010 to 2013, but I'm experiencing a lot of issues.
    My move batches keep hanging (stalled) for minutes and hours on end, and I can't seem to keep them going consistently.
    I have two DAG's, one for Archive boxes, and one for Primary mailboxes. Each DAG has three members with DB copies of each DB. The npdes and the clusters themselves are up and healthy. However, at random some of the DB's Content Index state will go to Failed
    or SuspendedandFailed. At which point I force a catalog refresh and DB index update, and it goes to healthy.
    I've created the "ContentSubmitters" AD group (and assigned it permissions), reset the Search and Host controller services on each server, and restarted the Replication service. I also deleted and recreated the Index for each DB prior to restarting
    services. No dice. I've also already moved the system mailboxes over to the 2013 databases.
    I'm also getting some "Transient" errors in the user move log, things like this: 
    Transient error ResourceUnhealthyException has occurred. The system will retry"
    5/4/2014 8:43:55 AM [exmb1] The job encountered too many transient failures (60) and is quitting.

    Any ideas would be appreciated!!!

    Hi 
    I would suggest you to run the below command for this "My move batches keep hanging (stalled) for minutes and hours on end" issue and see the result
    Get-MoveRequest -Identity "Mailbox Name" | Get-MoveRequestStatistics -IncludeReport | FL Report
    Just check if the MRS health is fine by running the below command
    Test-MRSHealth -Identity "CAS Server" -MonitoringContext $true | Export-CliXml "C:\temp\CAS_MRSHealth.xml" and look at the xml file to get more information
    When I run the Test command against either of my CAS servers, I get: " 'EXCH1' does not have the right Exchange Server version or role required to support this operation."
    Run i run that command against any of the mailbox servers, it completes and generates the XML file, but I'm not sure what I need to be looking for within that file.
    The first command spits out a ton of data, here's a little excerpt:

  • Internet connection issues and Horrible support

    I have been using Verizon FIOS at work, home and recommened to all of my clients and friends. Had been using FIOS since it's available to me 6 years ago. It has been great, but I had a huge disappointment and horrible experience today.
    The home FIOS line had been having issues for the past week and half, almost everyday, it will have certain downtime, the ping time will go up to 6000+ ms, the download speed will be around 50K! I picked up the phone called Verizon for help, after 40 minutes of hold, this engineer (Level 2 according to himself) Joe, asked me a bunch of questions and basically refused to help, because he said there's nothing to help and NOTHING he could do from his end. He wanted me to run computer optimizer and not to use WIFI.
    We certainly have an issue, and the issue comes and go, it looks like Verizon support or this enigeer "Joe" thinks that I am lying and want to spend an hour of my weekend time to report a false problem.
    How do I file an complain about an engineer? (He told me i cannot escalate and cannot talk to anyone else).

  • Trouble connecting to and from my work computer & home computer

    When I first bought my iPod Touch, I could easily not only connect it and sync/load songs etc. from my home computer, I noticed and real good feature in that I could connect it to my work MAC as well. I have an iPhone now and i noticed you can't do this. It asks you to sync the iPhone and all data will be lost if I choose to do so. When I connect it to my work computer all the fields are grayed out. This ***** if I can't go to and from from home t work with my new iPhone when I could so easily with my iPod Touch. Any feedback on this would be much appreciated.

    Some info and a bit of detail about your network set up would be helpful. How are you connected to the internet? Cable modem? DSL? Is there a router involved? Are you connected via ethernet or airport?

  • Printing with OSX 10.5.2 and Lexmark 5470 Work around

    I just upgraded to Leopard. Like many people have had problems printing with my existing Lexmark printer. Upgraded to the latest print driver and now able to print, but, pauses. When brining up Que. am able to continue print process, but puts many pages into small space at one place on the paper. Tried removing driver and printer info and then reinstalling all. Still same problem. Have not found any solution to the direct problem and am still searching, however, I have found a WORK AROUND. If you used the print dialog box and select sending to PDF first and then print from Preview everything works just fine.
    So what gives? The doc I was trying to print was from Firefox from the internet. So maybe it has something to do with the App being used. I did not try with Safari, but I will try next. If it works from Safari correctly then I can maybe assume that it is a problem from third party app software, since it printed fine from Apple's app Preview as a PDF.
    Just a thought. Any other thoughts, please submit. I too am looking for answers.

    It's also a good idea to try with Safari. The fact that you were able to print with other apps seems to indicate that problem is with Firefox. What version are you using?

  • MacBook Pro 15" connectivity Issue.  Everything else works great; PC's and smaller MacBooks, but everyone with a 15" model is having connection issues.

    So I have a 15" Macbook Pro.  About two months ago I started having issues connecting it on my network at work.  Every other 15" MacBook pro is having the same issue.  When the wireless connects, it often comes back with a connection timeout, or it connects to the router, and DHCP doesn't give it an IP addess.  Static IP doesn't work.  There are the odd place where I can connect regularly, but they are few and far between.  I have great singnal strength, but it's just really flaky.
    My network Admin can't figure it out.  all the PCs are working fine, and even MacBooks and 13" Macbook Pros are working.  The problem seems to be common to MacBook Pro 15", AppleTV, iPad.  Anyone got any ideas?

  • My time capsule doesnt work when its conneted direct cable modem, and it start working from netgear router

    I just bought a Airport Time Capsule, time capsule is connected direct from wan to cable modem (it doesnt work). when i connect it to lan port 1, it start working. normal process i know is from cable modem to wan port. 2nd i notice, network is on bridge mode. so my question is how do i make it to work from modem to wan port.

    What model is the modem? Is it a pure cable modem or a combined modem router?
    This maybe important as the current model TC does have issues with some of the popular cable modems.. SB6121 or 6141 being often the ones complained about here.
    If it is a pure cable modem (most will have just one ethernet port). Then power down the modem for 20min. This allows enough time for the MAC address of the first device connected to be lost at the ISP end so it is ready for a new router.
    The TC must be in dhcp and nat mode.
    Please factory reset the TC and start over.
    The Factory Reset universal
    Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on..  all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
    Release reset.
    If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
    By default the TC is in router mode after a reset.
    Restart the modem.
    The power up the TC and run through the setup utility.
    The TC should then be accepted as the main router in the network.
    If this fails check the WAN ip address. If it is 10.x.x.x or some other private IP you did not turn off the cable modem for long enough.. Try again only this time leave it off longer. (Some ISP it is just 5min.. some 15.. some will require 60min or overnight).
