Normal user is unauthorized to mount external storage drives, although added to optical,storage groups.
I'm using Gnome.
Thanks!

I applied what's said in HAL wiki page, however still the same problem.
Not authorized to mount.
Any other suggestions?
i don't know how your setup is but in my .xinitrc i added
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session openbox-session
In bold is what I added to the file. Maybe that will help you? i don't know just a suggestion.

WD External HD won't mount after moving/deleting files in 10.9

Hi, Apple Expert Universe.
Preface first with my setup:
15" MacBook Pro w/Retina Display, 2.3 GHz i7, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD, OS X Mavericks
Western Digital External Hard Drive, 1TB, USB 2.0
(WD applications removed per WD's suggestion after upgrading to OS X 10.9)
Today I was organizing my files on my external hard drive and computer to free up space and eliminate duplicates. I ran countless files through the application Gemini and moved and deleted hundreds of GB of data over the course of a couple hours.
At one point, I emptied the trash. I had had difficulty doing this at first because of some permission issues between users, so I went to Finder and did a CTRL + Click on "Empty Trash" to bypass these issues. This may or may not be relevant to my problem.
Now, my WD HD will not mount on my computer. I plug it in (have tried both USB ports) and all that shows is the "WD SmartWare" which always shows up alongside the HD itself under "Devices."
In Disk Utility, my named disk is greyed out under the main HD heading. (So where it tells me about the formatting of the disk and calls it what I've named it, it's greyed out, but it clearly sees the hard drive attached.) I tried to Repair the disk but it stops after a while and tells me that I need to back up my data, reformat the disk, and restore the backed-up files.
I don't know what to do next. I have looked in several other forums here and elsewhere in Mac-related sites but haven't found anything that exactly matches my problem. If you know what to do, or have suggestions that won't risk losing data, or know of another string or forum where this has been successfully resolved, I would greatly appreciate the assistance. I'm an advanced user, but I am also a dummy who put the only copy of my 100 GB photo library and many other things I would like to keep on this drive. Needless to say, I'm a little stressed out right now.
One last point: I don't have enough space to put my things on my computer's hard drive, but if I have to I'll go buy a new hard drive. I was planning on doing that anyways because using UBS 2.0 on a MBP Retina Display kind of defeats the point. Buying a new external hard drive with Thunderbolt is definitely in my future.
Thanks very much,
Christie

OS X has very limited support for NTFS. you need to repair the drive from windows.
How do I do that? I mean the disk works normally in Win XP and it worked normally in the previous OS X version. Btw. I've also installed NTFS-3D which allowed to write on the disk and search from spotlight (of course when it was mounted).
run chkdsk in windows and see if it finds any errors.

it can also be that the problem is caused by ntfs-3g which is known to have a number of bugs. you can try uninstalling it or plugging in the drive in a mac without ntfs-3g installed.
there is no "issue" to solve.
Well if it worked in 10.5.6 and it works in Win XP and it doesn't work in 10.5.7 I am tempted to say 10.5.7 has an issue.
the fact that you have a problem with one drive on your particular system doesn't mean there is a problem with os x in general. an issue is when all or at least many people have a problem, not one.
furthermore, NTFS is a proprietary file system of Microsoft with closely guarded secrets about its inner workings which is why it has very limited support on other types of operating systems. apple is under no obligation to provide ANY support for something like that. programs like NTFS-3g are essentially unauthorized hacks.

External disk won't mount after 10.5.7 upgrade

Hi,
I know there's problem with Buffalo external HD; mine is Lexcron 3.5'' external case and it won't mount neither. I tried PRAM restart, and if I go to Disk Utility and try to repair, it gives me the following message:
Verify and Repair volume “Dirty Hary”
** /usr/local/bin/ntfsfix has been disabled because of volume corruption issues.
** If you still want to try fixing your volume, use /usr/local/bin/ntfsfix from the command line...
Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.
It worked with 10.5.6 and it still works with Win XP (it's NTFS format).
Is there something that I can do?
Will this issue be solved in Snow Leopard?
Thanks in advance for any kind of constructive info (I've already read threads with Buffalo issue, but I didn't find any thread giving a solution).

Why am I seeing 'codec overrun' when I try to mount the FF8.0 DMG?

Have just downloaded FF8.0 and tried to open the DMG. But unfortunately I've gotten the warning message that the DMG failed to mount, with the stated reason being 'codec overrun.' Can anyone help?

first try a different usb cable, remove all other usb devices, and try a different port in back on desktops if possible. if no luck see these
These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

Delete File From Mounted Volume

Hey,
I am trying to delete the "Calendar Cache" files on both my laptop PowerBook G4 and the Mac Pro Quad that I sync my calendars with. I am using ChronoSync and the individual calendars sync fine, but there is a little house keeping needed with the cache file. They need to be deleted on both systems in order to "refresh" the views of the calendars.
So after the sync of calendars, I have the software initiating an AppleScript that deletes both. Here's the script:
+(* PowerBook Files / delete cache file *)+
+(* Please note that both systems have the same username. This may be arise a conflict *)+
+tell application "Finder"+
+ activate+
+ tell application "Finder" to delete file "Calendar Cache" of folder "Calendars" of folder "Library" of disk "useranthony"+
+end tell+
+(* Mac Pro Quad/ delete cache file *)+
+tell application "Finder"+
+ mount volume "afp://10.10.10.1/anthonyabraira"+
+ tell application "Finder" to delete file "Calendar Cache" of folder "Calendars" of folder "Library" of disk "/volumes/useranthony"+
+end tell+
I am having trouble addressing a deletion on the networked Mac Pro Quad.

why send it to the trash just delete it...
(* PowerBook Files / delete cache file )
try
do shell script "rm -rf /Library/Calendars/Calendar\\ Cache"
end try
you may need a delay for the Mac Pro Quad to mount
( Mac Pro Quad/ delete cache file *)
--the mount and then the delay
delay 4
try
do shell script "rm -rf /THE-CORRECT/PATH-HERE/Library/Calendars/Calendar\\ Cache"
end try

Copy file from mounted DMG to the Applications folder?

I'm wanting to copy file (application) from a mounted DMG to the Applications folder. Something like:
tell application "Finder"
try
copy "Volumes:Dropbox Installer:Dropbox.app" to folder "Volumes:Macintosh HD:Applications"
end try
end tell
(But that doesn't work).
Preferably overwriting the existing application in that folder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

tell application "Finder"
duplicate file "Volumes:S001TEST:S001-S001c-TEST.zip" to folder "Volumes:Macintosh HD:Applications" with replacing
end tell
I tried this principle in Applescript (Mavericks) and received error...
Finder got an error: Can’t set folder "Volumes:Macintosh HD:Applications" to file "Volumes:S001TEST:S001-S001c-TEST.zip".
"001TEST" is a disk image with filename of "S001TEST.dmg"
Any ideas why this won't work?

Copying file from mounted disc image.

Hi
I'm trying to copy a file from a mounted .iso file but it says i don't have permission to do so ( error code -39).
Is there any way around this?
Thanks in advance.
George.

Its a folder containg many files, most of which it copies fine then it gets to one particular file and the copying stops giving the following error.
' The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “Session Strings Pro020.nkx” can’t be read or written.

My mistake it's error code -36!
I've tried copying to my internal and external harddrives.
The file that fails to copy is 1.05gb it copies just 250mb of it before stopping.

Vi error on nfs mount; E212: Can't open file for writing

Hi all,
I've setup a umask of 0 for testing on both NFS client (Centos 5.2) and NFS server (OSX 10.5.5 server).
I can create files as one user and edit/save out as another user w/o issue when directly logged into the server via ARD.
However, when I attempt the same from an NFS mount on a client machine, even as root I get the following error using vi;
"file" E212: Can't open file for writing
Looking at the system.log file on the server, I see;
kernel[0]: add_fsevent: no name hard-link! dropping the event. (event 2 vp == 0xa5db510 (-UNKNOWN-FILE)).
This baffles me. My umask is 0 meaning files I create and attempt to edit as other users are 777, but I cannot save out edits unless I do a wq! in vi. At that point, the owner of the file changes to whomever did the vi.
This isn't just a vi issue as it happens using any editor, but I like to use vi.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Hey, beer is on me!

Hi all,
Thanks for the replies
I've narrowed it down to a Centos client issue.
Everything works fine using other Linux based OS's as clients.
Since we have such a huge investment in Centos, I must figure out a workaround. Apple support wasn't much help as usual however they were very nice.
There usual response is "its unsupported".
If Apple really wants to play in the enterprise of business space, they really need to change there philosophy. I mean telling me that I shouldn't mount home directories via NFS is completely rediculus.
What am I supposed to use then, Samba of AFP? No, I don't think so. No offense to Microsoft but why would I use a Windows based file sharing protocol to mount network shares in a Nix env???

How do you stop unauthorized cookies from appearing in Safari?

Hi ,
I'm using Safari 5.1.10 and system 10.6.8. I've gotten all the security downloads available, but I seem to having issues with unauthorized cookies appearing. These seem to appear even though I've not visited their websites, and have Safari set to accept cookies from only sites I've visited.
After going to Preferences:Privacy: remove all website data: then remove all cookies,
If I just wait a few minutes, I get 72 website cookies restored to my computer, without doing anything. These include cookies from google, alibaba, 2mdn.net, facebook, microsoft, oracle and many more. Some of these declare they are using local storage, others the catch, while others just declare themselves as cookies.
These appear in spite of the fact that I have the preferences set to block cookies from third party advertizers, set Extensions to OFF, but have Javascript enabled, and allow Java, but deny all other plug-ins.
If I unclick the allow Java button in Preferences:security, then 11 of these cookies sneek back in, but the others seem to be blocked. Those that come back include Alibaba, apple, google-analytics, "local documents on my computer", machine-seeker, wikipedia, and a few others.
If I disable JavaScript in Preferences:Security, now I get only cookies from sites I've visited, as I'm supposed to, according to the settings in my Safari preferences.
So it seems that some unscrupulous information collectors are collecting data even when the Safari settings should prohibit it. Unfortunately, some of the sites I visit ( Like Apple support communities) require that Javascript be enabled, so I don't know how to stop this.
The problem is that I've found these unwarrented cookies appear to slow down my internet connection speeds by ~ 95% ( Try removing them and disabling Javascript to see what happens) in addition to it being an invasion of my privacy. In addition, it really bothers me that some of these sites are storing local documents on my computer without permission.
As I've said, I've already installed ALL the pertinent security updates. Does anybody have any idea how to stop this from happening? I presume this is also happening on my iphone and ipad as well, but haven't checked.
I see that Safari was sued by Apple in 2012 for doing just this same thing, but they appear to be up to their old tricks, as well as many other companies.
Thanks

Hi,
I've investigated this phenomena of UNauthorized Cookies a bit more in the past few days and found their cause and uses goes very deep down the internet rabbit hole. While most browsers allow the user to delete cookies, or to block cookies from third parties, third parties may place cookies or "cookie equivalents" on your computer through a large variety of back doors. The most pernicious type of such cookie is euphemistically called a "Zombie Cookie" or a "supercookie".
These may reside in a number of places either in your own computer or remotely on the web. Deleting zombie cookies or supercookies is generally ineffective, because they are reinstalled in your browser, or worse, just exchange information with your browser withouth leaving a trail of cookie crumbs, the next time you get online. Some of these zombie cookies are not browser specific, so they can be accessed through all browsers on your computer.
The reason that you may never have heard of supercookies, and the reason they are so hard to find and get rid of, is that their deployment is deliberately sneaky and designed to evade detection and deletion. This means that most people who think they have cleared their computers of tracking objects have likely not. The European Union has recently taken action to make illegal the emplacement of "non-essential" cookies on your computer, but the United States, being less concerned about your personal privacy, and more concerned about making it easy for companies (and the government) to eavesdrop, has not.
The following is a list ( probably incomplete) where zombie cookies may be hiding on your computer:
Standard HTTP cookies
Storing cookies in and reading out web history
Storing cookies in HTTP ETags
Internet Explorer userData storage (starting IE9, userData is no longer supported)
HTML5 Session Storage
HTML5 Local Storage
HTML5 Global Storage
HTML5 Database Storage via SQLite
Storing cookies in RGB values of auto-generated, force-cached PNGs using HTML5 Canvas tag to read pixels (cookies) back out
Local Shared Objects
Silverlight Isolated Storage
Cookie syncing scripts that function as a cache cookie and respawn the MUID cookie[4]
If a user is not able to remove the cookie from every one of these data stores then the cookie will be recreated to all of these stores on the next visit to the site that uses that particular cookie, or in some cases, just the next visit to the internet, even though you may have barred 3rd party cookies from being emplaced in your browser. Every company has their own implementation of zombie cookies and most are kept proprietary, although an open-source implementation of zombie cookies, called Evercookie,[5] is available and commonly used.
One such common type of supercookie is called Local shared objects (LSOs), or more commonly Flash cookies (due to their similarities with HTTP cookies), are pieces of data that websites which use Adobe Flash may store on a user's computer. Local shared objects are used by all versions of Adobe Flash Player and version 6 and above of Macromedia's now-obsolete Flash Player.[1]
It is possible to see who is using Flash cookies on your computer, (and remove them) by going to the adobe website storage settings panel : (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_man ager07.html). This takes you to a settings manager figure. This Settings Manager figure that you see on this page is not an image; it is the actual Settings Manager for your computer. Click the tabs to see different panels, and click the options in the panels to change your Adobe Flash Player settings.
So far, I have not been able to find a method of removing or inhibiting zombie cookies that use HTML5 local or global storage locations. Some browsers may provide such power, but Apple Safari apparently does not.
For more information on supercookies see:
https://www.bestvpn.com/blog/8177/super-cookies-flash-cookies/
There are some ways to reduce your load of unwanted cookies and local storage type cookies using extensions such as AdBlock or Disconnect, But I've tried some of these and it doesn't seem to stop very many of them, even though the Disconnect extension is said to block over 2000 of these types of cookies.
For those who are trying to ride under the radar by using some of these extensions or software blockers, be aware that use of these may actually make you more visible because of browser fingerprinting. Whenever you visit a website your browser sends data to the server hosting that site. This data includes basic information, including the browser name, operating system, and exact version number of the browser. This information is known as passive browser fingerprint because it happens automatically. However websites when blocked, can also easily install other types of scripts that ask for additional information, such as a list of all installed fonts and plugins, supported data types (so-called MIME types), screen resolution, system colors and much more. Because this information has to be solicited from your browser, it is known as active fingerprinting. Taken altogether, the various fingerprint attributes can be almost instantly (it takes just a few milliseconds to run algorithms that compare millions of fingerprints) combined to create a unique fingerprint that can be used to very accurately identify an individual user, no matter if cookies have been deleted or IP address changed between website visits.
For an article on browser fingerprinting, See : https://www.bestvpn.com/blog/8159/browsers-fingerprint-reduce/
The bottom line is that if you use the internet, your browser history is being tracked by a myriad of companies and government agents, and it is likely not possible to stop this. For those who work in science, industry or government and are working on sensitive topics or novel product development that another company or government may find interesting, there appears to be many ways to recreate what you are working on by studying your browser history, or installing worms to view exactly what you are writing or reading. It came as somewhat of a shock to me to see just how pervasive internet spying has become, and it's not just malicious or destrustive agents who are doing so. Google didn't become a $350 billion company by simply bringing nice toys to us to play with. The real value of the internet comes from the trade and sale of secretly obtained personal information from you and I and everyone else, and its sale to all who will pay for it.

Can't install Snow Leopard on MacBook Pro - DVD won't mount

I am unable to install Snow Leopard on my MacBook Pro as the DVD won't mount. This is an early 2008 vintage MacBook Pro, intel core duo...
I'm using a OS X Snow Leopard install DVD (family licensed). This DVD has been used to install 3 other Macs in my house without a problem (about a year ago), but cannot be used to upgrade my MBP. Actually, this disk mounted on the MBP exactly once - inserted with system up, the disk mounted. Upon running the installed (a year ago), the computer restarted but hung in boot. After getting the disk ejected and the computer restarted, the disk would never mount again. I've defered upgrade for a year but at this point need to upgrade my MBP at least to Snow Leopard and possibly Lion.
The problem doesn't seem to be with the DVD, since it continues to mount fine in other computers, and in fact a borrowed Snow Leopard DVD also will not mount on the MBP.
BUT ... the problem also does not seem to be with the optical drive in my computer, as it can read & mount the install/restore disks that came with the computer as well as other CDs and DVD ROMs. Only the Snow Leopard install DVDs fail to mount.
I've also tried mounting the 10.6 install DVD on my Mac Pro desktop, making it available over the network (ethernet) with DVD/CD sharing. I can mount the remote disk from my MBP that way, but when I launch the installer, the application launches (its own menus are displayed, I can quit from menu, for example) but does nothing -- no windows open, nothing.
I've also tried "Remote Install" (again with the DVD made available with the Remote Install MacOS X application on my desktop), but when I boot the MBP with option held down, the remote disk is not available as a startup disk.
Zapping the PRAM did not help.
Am off to the store to get an optical drive cleaning kit and a blank DVD big enough to burn a new disk image, but would appreciate any further ideas at this point....

Solution that worked: Copy the Install DVD to a USB flash drive and boot from that.

401:Unauthorized error while consuming a MOSS web service

Hi, We are trying to cosume a Web Service from MOSS using Spring and Axis. The WSDL requires user name and password. We are passing the right credentials however we are getting the 401 error. The exact exception is provided below. Could any one advise how this can be resolved?
java.io.FileNotFoundException: Response: '401: Unauthorized' for url: 'https://ts2amr.accenture.com/_vti_bin/Search.asmx?wsdl'.
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'spWSClient' defined in ServletContext resource [WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Cannot resolve reference to bean 'spWebService' while setting bean property 'service'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'spWebService' defined in ServletContext resource [WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.remoting.RemoteLookupFailureException: Failed to initialize service for JAX-RPC port [{urn:Microsoft.Search}QueryServiceSoap]; nested exception is javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException: Error processing WSDL document:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: Response: '401: Unauthorized' for url: 'https://ts2amr.accenture.com/_vti_bin/Search.asmx?wsdl'

I can't speak for MOSS for sure, but other Microsoft services such as MapPoint used to require Digest Authentication, which isn't quite as pervasive as Basic Authentication. You should doublecheck with the MOSS administrator about the proper credentials and access. You might even try a utility like SoapUI to see if things work from a test client before trying it on the application server.

Ipod no longer mounts or works correctly

i have the 3rd generation ipod (click wheel). so all of a suddon, my ipod doesnt mount, nor is it recognized by anything but disk utility. the HD in it just spins and clicks (somewhat loudly actually), and it says do not disconnect. when i unplug it, it goes back to normal. sometimes it restarts and it says "apple.com/support/ipod" and shows a folder with a !. when it played a song, sometimes it will be fine, but sometimes it will skip through the song, as if i was holding down fast forward. when that happens, i would restart it and its fine. it still wouldnt connect though. so i tried restoring it through the ipod updater, and no luck. i then found out that not only does it stil lnot work, but now it doesnt work at all. it will restart and say the "www.apple.com/support/ipod" thing and just shut off. i tried restoring it with disk utility and nothing. please help.

Can No Longer Write files to a NSF-mounted drive on one Server. Error -36

Hi Folks:
I have searched the Net (including these forums now) for several hours and found nothing definite.
The story is this: I have a Fedora 14 server that, up to this point, has been acting as a file server. Sometime last week (around the 28th we think) it stopped allowing people to copy files from the Mac OS X 10.6.8 workstations (which is what we have, largely) to the shared drives. It fails with a "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "" can't be read or written. (Error Code -36)." People can mount the drives in question, see them, read from them, copy from them, but not copy anything, or write anything (Save as from Word) to the drives.
Now at about the time period where this started we moved a mySQL database from this particular server somewhere else. As part of that operation, the server was rebooted. The server where we moved the DB to was not. It also have an NFS share that continues to work.
I have verified service by service that nothing is running that shouldn't be. One of my thoughts was that something came up that shouldn't of when the reboot happened. Everything seems fine in that regard.
My looking through the Net has yielded several possible answers none of which has worked. One has been that this is a sign of bad media. I have checked the drive array in question three seperate times. It has passed all those times. I started another share on a separate spindle on the server and I still cannot write to this new share on a totally different drive.
The drives in question are formatted for EXT3 (hey, I've giving out as many details as I can here! :-) ).
I have also repaired permissions on the SOURCE drives. No luck there.
My export file looks like this:
/raid/data/BigBang
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,all_squash)
/raid/data
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
/raid
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
/home/rkinne/test
*(rw,insecure,sync,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash)
No thoughts on security right now. I'm trying to get this darn thing to work, especially on /raid/data/BigBang. That share WAS "no_root_squash" but I changed it to "all_squash" as I've been flailing around today. There was no change in behavior. The exports file on the other server that is working is virtually identical.
Two Mac workstations work right now. One is running 10.4. The other is running 10.7.3. The rest - the problematic ones - are running 10.6.8. One is running 10.5 and is also not working.
I have also flushed the DNS caches from the servers in question, but its too early to see if that will do something yet.
This issue has flumouxed folks for years now. I understand that. Oddly, it JUST came out of the blue for us. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I understand the process you are describing, In the past I have been able to embed metadata to a Raw file, move it to a server, pick that file up on another computer and see the metadata without need of the .xmp sidecar.

If Photoshop is pushing people to create sidecar .xmp files only for writing metadata to Raw files I will probabaly move fully to PhotoMechanic because using sidecars has proven tricky in the past with how our files get moved around.
If using Adobe Camera Raw on camera raw file you either have an XMP sidecar file created or the data is stored in a database. Which happens it is your option in Edit/camera raw. If you use ACR and edit a jpeg it does not create a distinct XMP file but it is also not directly written to the image either. One can still delete the edits in Bridge with Edit/develp settings.
If you use a DNG the metadata is written to the image. Not sure what process Photo Mechanic uses.
It appears to be a permission problem as other than CS6 Bridge is now 64 bit and has a new cache method there are no changes in how it handles metadata.

Unable to mount SMB shares under Mac OS 10.6.5

Help -
*I can no longer mount any shares from my Seagate BlackArmor NAS-110*. I bought the device (a 1TB network drive with CIFS (aka SMB), NFS, and FTP capabilities (no AFP connectivity)) in June of 2010, and it was working fine until appx (18 Nov, 2010). My computer - MacPro 2x2.26GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon (early 2009) with 12GB of 1066MHz DDR3 RAM and Mac OS 10.6.5. My home network is running on Apple's TimeCapsule router (version 7.4.2).
Note: Problems began after installation of recent updates:
11/10/2010 - Mac OS 10.6.5
11/12/2010 - iTunes 10.1
11/13/2010 - iLife '11
11/13/2010 - iPhoto 9.1

I'm not sure which, if any, of these updates may have intrudced new code which impacted my ability to mount SMB/CIFS shares, or whether this problem is isolated to the NAS-110 (actually, reading numerous posts about connectivity issues (during/over the last month or so) shows similar issues with other external drives, servers, NAS devices). The issues may not have materialized until I rebooted the NAS or the Mac. FYI: The only firewall I'm using is the Mac's built in firewall, and I've got File Sharing (AFP, SMB) set to Allow Incoming.
What happens? I can't mount the SMB shares. I can see the device in my finder. It shows up as "BA-22B9C2", and I can see the sharepoint folders (in Finder): Download, Public, and wiki. When I attempt to SMB mount the shares (by any of the following methods: Double-Click in Finder, use 'Go->Connect to Server' or using the 'BlackArmor Discovery' application) The share/folder icon does not appear on my desktop. It creates a mount-point in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop. I can 'cd' into the sharepoint, and I can see that Spotlight has attempted to index the sharepoint (a .Spotlight-V100 directory was created), but I cannot see the 'Our Music, Our Pictures, or Our Videos' folders inside the Public share/directory. Successive attempts to mount a share, using Finder results in additional mount points in the /Volumes directory (Public-1, Public-2, Public-3, etc), but no folder icons on my desktop.
FYI: The 'Connected servers' setting (under 'Shared') is enabled in my Finder's Prefences (along with Bonjour and Back to My Mac), so connected shares should appear on the desktop.
Attempts to mount shares using the Connect to Server method (smb://10.0.1.2/Public, smb://admin:[email protected]/Public) also fail. No folder appears on desktop. The password/login authenticates (connecting to server), and a mount point is created in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop.
Attempts to mount shares using the BlackArmor Discovery application generate similar results. Shares are visible in the tool. I click on the 'Public' share (which has permissions set to 'read, write, execute' for all), then click the 'Mount Share' button. I am presented with an authentication/login dialog. I log in as a Registered user (name: admin password: admin) Once again, a mount point is created in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop.
Notably, whenever I attempt to mount a share, Spotlight indexes the share, but then it dies on my computer. Spotlight stops indexing my primary drive (where the OS is installed for my Mac). I have to stop the mds process using Activity Monitor. mds restarts automatically, and it starts indexing my primary drive again. While this may not be critical to my troubleshooting efforts, it has caused some considerable consternation on my part.
I initially (back around the 18th of Nov, 2010) attempted troubleshooting with the assistance of Seagate technicians, but they quickly gave up on the email support, insisted I had to continue over the phone, which costs ~$14.00 per 'incident' and isn't convenient for my schedule.
I've already attempted to update the firmware on the NAS (from 1000.0361 to 1000.1081), but that won't work. The NAS indicates a firmware update (1000.1081) is available, but it reports: "Firmware is not found". I had a friend try this update using his Windows machine (and my NAS), with the same results. He tried with a a Vista box and a Windows-NT running through emulation. I also tried to manually update. I downloaded the firmware image file "sg1000-1000.1081.img" from the Seagate downloads page, and attempted a manual update on the NAS. That failed with error "Failed to upload new firmware image to system." Once again, my friend tried to perform a manual update to the NAS. He downloaded a new copy of the file (from the Seagate downloads page), and he got the same error.
The Seagate techs recommended that I update the firmware. I explained my problems updating the firmware, and I have asked the Seagate techs (via email) for a known good copy of the firmware update, but they do not answer my requests for such.
The Seagate techs recommended that I restore the NAS with a factory reset. That caused plenty of problems, as their is no mac software to recover the factory reset 'key' from the device (need device MAC, and I presume some sort of hashing key stored on the device). So, I had to cart the drive over to my friends house, and have him attempt the restore. After some initial confusion regarding the MAC address, we were able to successfully restore the device to it's factory settings.
Note: Before attempting the factory reset, my friend attempted to mount the SMB shares (on the NAS), using his Mac running 10.6.5. He encountered the same problems I encountered. When he tried using his Windows-NT (through VMFusionWare emulation) *he WAS able to mount the shares*. O.k. This must be a Mac OS issue, and not a Seagate NAS issue. - Now that the drive has been restored to factory defaults, it's pretty much empty (some folders, but no data). Default admin/admin username/password are in place.
I'm not sure which, if any of my most recent software updates may have introduced changes to smb/samba, so I tried mounting the device using other services. It's capable of FTP and NFS as well as CIFS/SMB.
I tried to create an NFS mount. I tried using two different methods (an application called NFS Manager and the 'Connect to Server' method built into the Mac. Both methods failed to establish a nfs mount to the server. No login errors were noted, but no mount points were created in /Volumes, and no folders appeared on the desktop.
I tried to connect via FTP, that didn't work either (using an my Transmit client). I'm certainly striking out with this drive. My Mac will not mount the shares/folders. I tried FTP (to 10.0.1.2 as admin) using Transmit application (on port 21). Transmit reported "Could not retrieve file listing for “/Public”. Server said: OOPS: Child died Error -162: Port failed". Connectivity protocols of CIFS, NFS and FTP (on port 21) are enabled on the NAS and the /Public share.
*When I attempt to connect using the Connect to Server method (See Apple's 'Go' menu in the Finder), I met with sucess!* ftp://10.0.1.2/Public connect attempt resulted in two pop ups. One of them said 'connecting', the other said something about "'NetAuthAgent' (I didn't write it down) wants permission to access your confidential keychain data" Presumably, this was the authentication request. I said 'Always allow'. A folder appeared on my desktop and a finder window opened showing the contents of that folder. Unfortunately, the share is 'read only'; even when I attempt to authenticate as a specific user.
Note: I don't think FTP attempts to index the mounted shares.
Prior to the factory reset, I was able to connect to the shares using the Seagate's 'Global Access' web based ftp service. Now I cannot connect through the Global Access page.
Below are 'Console' entries and a listing of my /Volumes directory. These may help resolve the issue. I deleted some entries (those I felt were unrelated to the issue). I left in stuff that's been bothering me.
_*Can anyone help me reestablish SMB connectivity with my NAS-110?*_

O.k. Thanks for the clarification. I poked around in my TimeCapsule router's settings (TimeCapsule is an Apple Airport Extreme router with attached hard drive for wireless backup/storage). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I can disable multicasting with the TimeCapsule. I can change the multicasting 'rate'. Settings are Low, Medium, High. It's currently set to Low.
I did a few web searches, and found an Apple.com article: <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789?viewlocale=en_US> which explained how to disable Bonjour Service Advertisements. I believe this is the same thing as 'Multicasting'. The process is a modification of "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist", and a restart of the Mac is required afterwards.
I'm a bit concerned that disabling multicasting will interfere with my AppleTVs and iTunes music sharing, but I may try it next time I'm up for a computer workout. This task will require editing of system preference files, could require multiple restarts, might interfere with my AppleTVs, could interfere with my iTunes file sharing, doesn't have a documented relationship to my problem.
This is way to difficult for something that should just work. Did you say you had read something about a relationship between this bonjour multicasting and smb connectivity? If it was online could you post the link?
I'm currently able to connect to the drive using NFS, but I have to manually configure that connection each time I reboot (can't get the 'Disk Utility' configured to do it automatically). While it's working with NFS, it's not my preferred connect method (for various reasons).
