Time Maschine NAS Server

I have a problem getting access through Time Maschine to my NAS Server.
Some time ago the Server has been recognized, but now the system does not find it anymore.
I can access the server using the IP address and also the server appears in the finder, but only under the view point "Freigaben" in English this might be access and not under servers as an Ipod would do.
I have installed NFTS for Mac and I am able to open all folders and access all entries.
The only problem I have to be bale to select the server through the configuration settings of time maschine.
It is a NAS Server from Seagta NAS110 with 2TB space.
Is there any other hintsomeone is able to give me in order to solve the problem?
Many thanks

Can I create an account server on a time capsule for all the computers in my house to use?
No
There is no way to run applications on the Time Capsule. It is merely a wireless base station, file server and print server.

Installed Time Capsule, lost access to NAS server

I have a MBP and installed the TC behind my modem, then it connects to the home network. Backup of laptop worked fine. I have a NAS server that I have always connected with via its SMB address. However now my MBP cannot locate it. The server has all of my backed up data files, so I need to get them over to the TC.
1. How do I navigate to the server?
2. Do I have to move the files I want to backup on the TC over to the MBP first and then allow Time Machine to back them up? That's going to demand a lot of storage space on my MBP. Other suggestions?
Tnx

After a half dozen calls to AppleCare we figured it out.
1. With TC running the newtwork, all IP addresses were changed, including the NAS Server IP address. I called the mfg of the server to get help identifying the new IP address. They suggested that I download a freeware Mac IP scanner, which I found using Google. I ran one of them and it gave me several addresses to try out in my browser in an effort to get into the setup menu for the server. After some trial and error I hit on the right IP address, set up the server name, username, password and then used that info to navigate to the server via the MBP Finder-Go-Connect to Server menu.
2. Can't back up a server to the TC, ***. I have to copy it all to my MBP if I want it to backup...
Oh well 1-for-2 was not bad.

Use iTunes Library on a NAS server

Hello all,
is there a better way to enjoy my music and movies all over the house than to use a NAS server - copy the iTunes folder there and select it as data source?
This is not the most elegant of all solutions: I need to mount the NAS every time, I need to take care every time that iTunes isn't running on 2 Macs…
Thank you

Yes, you can split the library but it isn't a good idea. Files would continue to go to the NAS but iTunes does not play well with NAS. The problems you are having now might be magnified if you continue to have problems after moving your library file to your internal drive. I have seen several very long topics where people were trying to repair broken links resulting from having a split library and iTunes using the locally stored .itl but then it couldn't see the media files on the NAS.
You need to find out what works for you to ensure the NAS is mounted and active before starting iTunes.

ITunes password for NAS server.. Arrrrgh!

Heeey guys,
I'm having a huge problem with itunes, and after i have been trying to deal with it for the last 3 hours, it's driving me nuts..!
I have a Qnap NAS server with build in iTunes server, works like a charm on my computer and xbox 360 - at least until tonight.. I wanted to access the server on a new laptop, I clicked the nas under shared drives, iTunes prompted for the password and accidentally I mistyped one character but had already checked the "remember password" box, and BAM - iTunes remember the WRONG password and the server won't let me in.. Everytime i click the server from the shared drive, it just load for a sec and throw me back to the main music folder on my computer, dammit..!
I have absolutely no idea of how I get iTunes to promt for pass again or how I can change/manage password..?! Why is it so hard to make that feature apple?!
So i REALLY hope some of you have the answers, I'm officially lost on this one!
Best regards
-And
PS. I have uinstalled / installed iTunes a million times now and deleted everything named itunes i the documents folder without any luck..

The problem is itunes remembers the password the first time you type it in,
No it doesn't because iTunes doesn't use passwords except for the iTunes store which has nothing to do with the NAS.
I wanted to access the server on a new laptop, I clicked the nas under shared drives, iTunes prompted for the password
No it didn't. The QNAS server prompted you for a password to access the server. The NAS saw it was a new computer attempting to access the NAS and asked for the password.
The NAS software is controlling access, not iTunes or the laptop.
Your issue has nothing to do with iTunes.
You need to access the NAS administration software and reset the password for the other computer there.
Apple, *?! This is such a ridiculous programming error.
Actually, it is a fairly standard PEBKAC error and easily fixed.
Open the *QNAS Finder* application then double click on the NAS to access the QNAS admin screen.

Enough bandwith to usa a NAS server for itune & stream via Airport Express?

Hi,
i posted this question in the itunes forum, but got zero feedback. i was hoping someone here could possibly answer my question :
I was thinking of getting a ByteCC LANDisk NAS to use as an itunes music 'jukebox' server for 2 macs (a G5 and a macbook). I have a Airport Express that i'd like to use to stream music to my living room stereo via itunes,
My question is is there enough bandwith to stream from the NAS server to the macs, and then to also stream the audio to the living room stereo via the airport express at the same time?
I'm sure someone must've atempted this set up
Any help or info is apreciated!

This works. I have a WD Netcenter (320G) which I store my main iTunes library on (holding down the command key when starting iTunes allows you to chose which library you want to use). I'm not using an Airport base (D-Link and now a Zyxel) and I can stream music AND video no problem - all my movies are on there too and they play fine through Front Row.
Oh and I usually mount it as nfs rather then smb - handy little apple script for this which I run as an app (when are Apple going to bring out a proper location manager that automounts networked drives etc based on where you are?!!!).
Have fun.

ITunes 10.5.2 rips tracks with noise/crackle to NAS server

This weekend I installed my Synology DS-212j NAS-server and migrated my iTunes library to it with the intention to have my entire iTunes library on the NAS. When I ripped some CDs in iTunes to the NAS, I noticed that the files have noise/crackle on the beginning and on the end of the WAV-file.
When I opened the ripped files in my Wave-editor the noise/crackle was visible just before the track starts and just after the track finishes on the left channel of the stereo wave. When I rip tracks to my old iTunes library located on one of the drives in my Mac Pro there is no noise/crackle.
Does anybody have an idea what could cause this problem and how it can be solved? I have tried to google it but didn't find any similar posts.
I run Mac OS X 10.6.8 on my Mac Pro with iTunes 10.5.2. The Synology NAS has 2x Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB drives (WD20EARX) inside.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Danny

I found a solution that worked for me. Here is what I did and where I found it.
"Looks like I tracked down the problem, it worked for me so I hope this works for everyone else experiencing problems. Go to your Task Manager and locate the program APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push)..... if you see this executing terminate the program and then startup iTunes and it should come up fine. You will see afterwards that APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push) starts back up but this is fine as long as iTunes has already started.
I tried playing both music and syncing up my iPhone with no problems. Note if you shutdown iTunes again you will have to terminate the process APSDaemon.exe (Apple Push) again. Haven't had time to see what in the world Apple Push is but this appears to have corrected the problem so that you can at least use iTunes and sync any device that needs to be synced.
Hope that helps everyone!"

I transferred files from a NAS server to the Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server and now some of the files have Custom Access and can't be opened by some users. How do I fix this?

We're setting up our Mac Mini Snow Leopard Server, and in the process transferred files that had been stored and accessed from our Blackarmor NAS server over to the Mac. These files were all created on PC's and are Office Excel files, WordPerfect files or PDF's. When you look at the files on the Mac from the Mac and bring up Get Info for the affected file, it says that the file has Custom Access. The files that work properly don't have that configuration. I can access and open the files on some computers, but some users can't open the files from their computer even though they can see it. We're all using PC's and they get the Error: Access Denied-Contact your administrator--or something similar. I've seen on the web similar issues and it may have something to do with ACL permissions. I don't know enough about Mac OS to understand this, but what is baffling is that they can be opened from some PC's but not others, and all of the Users have the same accessibility to the files. Thanks for a solution!!

Safari won't open the time warner cable server

safari won't open the time warner cable server, I'm trying to watch amc shows through the website, and it asks you to pick a server to login to. I chose my time warner cable server and it won't connect. ATandT works, but mine won't. I've tried restarting and downloading newer versions but it is still not working.

Don’t worry about it.
I’m going to cancel the subscription.
I maged to download it and install it, but it’s constantly damaged and won’t open.
I may as well just forget it and cancel.

Help with Using One Master Account on a NAS server in ALAC

I want to use my Netgear ReadyNAS server to hold my music, which I am going to re-rip into Apple Lossless (using dBpoweramp converter and a sony xl1b -so as to do 200 discs at a time). That server is mainly used by my home 2008 Mac Pro. So the iTunes account on that coputer can control it, or is can be pointed to the server through a shared library. I use this music through my house using an Apple TV and a Control4 HC-500 to push music through my house.
However, I also want to be able to put this music onto my Dell laptop (want a MacBook, but just can't spend that right now). However, I do not want it in ALAC, because this is the computer I use to sync with my iphone and older ipod (not used much).
Questions:
1) would it be better to use my Mac Pro to manage that library or would it be better to use a shared library?
2) How best do I move tracks from my main library to the one on my laptop (and ultimately my iphone)?
thanks,

Many people like to keep two versions of each song: one lossless for stereo use, and one compressed for iPod use. iTunes has nothing that makes that job easy.
Your situation is even more complicated because of the second computer.
It would probably be easiest copying the library to the Dell. Use iTunes to convert all the files to MP3, and then you can delete the lossless copies from the Dell. Every once in a while, find all your new stuff, and repeat the process.
You might also consider using the Mac to sync your iPhone.

How to deploy a Webapplication on WAS more than one times on same server?

Hi all,
I 've a special problem:
In our web-app (some DC's) also stored propertie-Files. Now we would to deploy this application more than one times at same server using different WebContentRoots. (f.e. http://server/app1 and http://server/app2 a.s.o.)
We know, that we must create different EAR-Projects and refer the web-Module and configure the application.
But in the second application there it's recommended to change some properties.
How we can handle this in JDI without copy the web-application?
I hope my question can be understood.
Best Regards

Hi Sven,
as I'm new to NWDI, I cannot give you a 100 percent, field-tested solution. But have you already thought about using the Configuration-Adapter?
If you can change the source of your web-app, you could maintain the data formerly stored in property files using the configuration adapter of visual administrator. The SC <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/45/e7e14b517b42788a1c166f9f32455e/content.htm">configuration</a> allows you to access this data.
With this approach you can stick to one web-application and do the configuration work separately for each deployed application.
Best regards,
Frank

How do I obtain a time from a server, when I have no process running on it?

I have a program that is running on many machines.
They all write files to a shared DIR on a server.
I need to obtain a time that is constant, as the only constistant thinh I know they can all see is the server, I'd like them to beable to get the time from the server.
This way I can keep my locks (so only 1 pc can write at any one time) consistant
How do I do this?
(I have no process on the server)
I'm looking for a call that'll tell me the time on a computer, in millis or somthing else. (I can then use Calendar.setTimeInMillis(long millis) )
But I don't know where to look....

This way I can keep my locks (so only 1 pc canwrite at any one time) consistant
I doubt having something depending on times being
synchronized is the right approach for this. You
should instead actually lock things, such as by using
a Mutex or actually locking files/records/bytes.it is unwise to actually lock a file as if there is an error, the file stays locked,. So you still need a time to work out how long it has been locked incase there has been a problem and it has gone 'stale'.
If 'stale' the locked ness should be able to be overridden.
But it is poor to use client time, as they all may be different.
I'd like to use the time on the NFS, or whatever has the shared DIR. It looks from what you're saying is that I can't find this out in Java.

How do I fix duplicates on a NAS server for itunes?

I have a dlink NAS server that I'd like to use as a network itunes server. Problem is that it seems to create multiple duplicates of just about everything I have. As a result I'll have 3 - 4 of everything.
Question - is there a way, or an application that anyone is aware of, that will let me to search for and delete duplicates on the NAS server?
Thanks!

Can I use Time Capsule to serve as an external drive with two different iMacs?

I want to be able to set up Time Capsule to serve as a backup drive for my iMac, as well as my wife's iMac.
So that we don't have to use two seperate back-up drives on each computer.
Is this possible?

The following quote is from: https://www.apple.com/airport-time-capsule/
Have multiple Mac computers in your home or office? AirPort Time Capsule can back up and store files for each Mac on your wireless network. No longer do you have to attach an external drive to each Mac every time you want to back up. AirPort Time Capsule spares you the work. Your computers are always backed up — automatically and wirelessly.

Mountain lion 10.8.2 can not connect to windows NAS server Dell Sentinel

I recently upgraded to 10.8 OS My office is connected to a NAS server Dell Sentinel WD4000. Everything was working fine until the upgrade from 10.7 to 10.8 Now when I "connect to server" Not one of my accounts can connect. All I get is wrong password. The server connects to every computer on the network except the 10.8 The server shows up as an icon on Shared Devices.
Someone please help me. Apple has been useless.

I hope this helps. But, Apple has confirmed a significant bug in 10.7.4 that breaks SMB. Their support says they are working on it, but they do not know when the fix will be released. It has broken SMB at all sites I support including my own location where Lion server has the updated version as well. Only AFP works but not consistently. The suggestion is to restore 10.7.3 from a backup or wait until the fix is released. SMB does work - but only when admin authentication is used on Mac servers - don't know about Windows Servers. I do know the client side of Mac's also are affected with SMB issues. Good luck!
