Unavailable remote share freezes computer

Reliably, when connecting to a remote drive that is unavailable (in my case a 10.7 Lion Server afp share) the entire os seems to freeze-up for 30 seconds or more. I'm led to believe that this connection is the problem, because when a finder dialog pops up stating that the server is unavailable - everything unfreezes.
I have also noticed this in connecting to other servers/shares (i.e. DroboFS)
All Gigabit Connections.
Anyone else? Any work arounds?
Thanks!!

Hi,
Before providing you any information, please reply additional details from your side.
1.  Can you successfully logon to the RDS server after it freeze for while? 
2.  Do all clients encounter the same issue? If not, please help to check RDC client version    on the problematic client.
3.  Have you try to temporarily disable all firewall to check if this issue can be resolved?
4.  Did you find any Event log on server side for root cause?
The issue which you are facing might occurs due to preparing network connection, or might if possible any 3rd party software cause this issue. Here suggesting you to check network traffic and also try to use latest RDP v 8.0 or 8.1(Temporary unavailable for
up gradation) for better experience.
Hope it helps!
Regards.

  • After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home.  I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes.  Anyone have any thoughts?

    After years without a problem, I am suddenly unable to remote share my work computer at home.  I haven't done any updates recently and did not make any changes to the setup.  It was working Monday night and stopped working Tuesday morning.  I am at a loss for what could have happened.   Anyone have any thoughts?

    it sounds like your work changed something on their network.  Try asking your IT people if they recently blocked any ports related to remote management or changed their firewall settings to block incoming connections.

  • Chromium for osx Marveicks  and chrome remote desktop cloud computing App!

    Hello!!!
    Good Day to Everyone.
    I'm clkwong@ and cho leung Kwong@ in Hong Kong.
    I have an imac and a macbook air , both of them is installed mac osx Marveicks.
    I download chroimium for mac Marveicks on both machines and install chrome remote desktop on both machines.
    When I have openned the chrome remote desktop and it was been logged in gmail account,  after accept the authority , then I choosed  the option in chrome remote desktop --> my computer.
    It needs to input pin (any 6 numbers) and input again , then ok.
    After that the cloud needed  to confirm the pin!
    And then I  used the macbook air and opened chrome remote desktop and choose the logged in gmail account computer and
    comfirmed the pin.
    Amazing, something happened, I could use the macbook air to operate the imac.
    For the above my experience of chrome remote desktop of chromium for mac osx Marveicksv use, I have an idea for remote access as follows :-
    1. I can use iphone 5 series with 4G lte/advanced and apple remote desktop App for ios 7 to connect to home's apple computer through icloud.
    2 . I can use iphone 5 series 4G lte and icolud with home's apple computer Internet share as wifi router to operate home's appliances which have wifi devices with App.
    3. I can use iphone 5 series 4G lte and icloud  to operate with home's apple computer for 4K video downloaded from website and stored in home's apple computer with usb 3.0 external Hard Disk.
    Thanks, Jesus loves.

    Hi Shay,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Please check that required ports is opened for remote desktop (port 3389)?
    Are you performing remote desktop with IP address or Hostname?
    Did you find any specific error for your case?
    Also there is required network connection available. If you can successfully connect with IP address then there might be issue with Hostname resolution for your server. From your description it also seems that there are some credential issue occurs for you.
    Please try with domain\username and verify. 
    You can also try URI scheme for connecting, for more detail refer this article.

  • ISight and iPod freeze computer

    On the last two macs I've owned, when I've tried to connect both my iSight and my iPod via firewire, it always ends up completely freezing either my computer, my iPod, or both. Since then I've been sticking to just switching them out depending on which I'm using, but I'm getting tired of that. I'd like to have them both connected all the time. So, does anybody know a way to fix the problem (or maybe an OSX update fixed the problem already?)? Thanks.

    A "not uncommon" problem. iSight draws significant power and can be picky about what and how it shares your Mac's Firewire port(s).
    See the Possible hardware or software conflicts with iSight. FAQ for my best suggestions.

  • My wife and I share a computer for our itunes accounts. How can we copy our music libraries to each others accounts without erasing the original library? We want to merge our songs.

    My wife and I share a computer for our itunes accounts. How can we copy our music libraries to each others accounts without erasing the original library? We want to merge our songs.

    If the music is on the same computer, import the songs to your iTunes library by dragging them into iTunes or choosing File > Add to Library (Mac) or File > Add File to Library or Add Folder to Library (Windows).  If the music is on different computers you can set up Home Sharing to copy the music from one library to the other (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3819 and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4620).

  • HT5649 Our family has a shared computer with itune software. We have multiple apple devices and multiple itunes accounts. Can we share the computer and iTunes software to back up each apple device separately?

    How do multiple users with multiple devices share one computer with iTunes software to back up multiple devices and individual iTune libraries?

    Hi Goodguy147,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The easiest way to have multiple users with multiple devices share a single computer is to create a User Account on your Windows PC for each person.  Each person should also have a unique Apple ID.  That will keep each individual's iTunes Library separate from the others and each individual can associate and backup several devices to their iTunes library. 
    Using your Apple ID for Apple services
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895
    The article below is a troubleshooting article for Windows.  I'm just quoting the section from it that explains how to create user accounts:
    iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8: Fix unexpected quits or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717?viewlocale=nl_nl
    Follow the steps below to create a new user account in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
    Choose Start > Control Panel.
    Open "Add or remove user accounts." (If you're using the Classic view in Windows Vista, open "User Accounts," and then open "Manage another account.")
    Select "Create a new account" and follow the instructions to set up the account.
    Once you create the new account, choose     Start > Log Off.
    Log in to the new user account.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes and iCloud are different accounts. You can both use the same ID for the store login and share your music etc., and use different ID's to log in to iCloud, thereby keeping your calendars etc separate.

    my wife and i share a computer. when she looks for her info in her cloud acct on the desktop my info appears in her account. Cannot understand why her info from her phone would appear to be nowhere and mine is in her account. Help us understand this please?

    On the shared computer click on System Preferences -> iCloud -> Account Details verify that each individual account is configured correctly. By default, the Apple ID used to install the computer the first time is used for all accounts on the computer, unless it is changed.

  • Macbook pro retina display doesn't work occasionally. Random restarts. I can remote into the computer when display isn't working correctly

    I have some issue with my 2012 Macbook Pro Retina. The screen intermittently decides to just not work. Sometimes on startup i hear the start up noise but the screen doesn't turn on. I am able to remote into the computer when the screen doesn't work. I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason as to when it works and when it doesn't. I've reset the PRAM and SMC sometimes that will bring the screen back sometimes not.
    Any ideas?

    You can try the Apple Hardware test, not definitive by any means, especially intermittent problems, but it is a start.

  • Screen Share - Freeze when changing accounts

    When I try to change change to another account on the iMac via Screen Share, Screen Share freezes. In fact, this happens when trying to log in to another account--it does not show the log in screen.
    If I Quit Screen Share and then open back up, I can then see the other account or the log in screen.
    All advice appreciated.

    Ok found the problem.
    As said before brand new device, when installing I choose to restore an iCloud back-up form my previous iPhone4.
    Somehow, and I surely do not understand why! My new 5S not only had all my keyboards as it should because of the recovery, it also had the German keyboard? Which is not part of the recovery!
    Deleted the keyboard, problem solved.
    It still is very strange I only had the German on "some" screens not all.

  • Systemd and nm_dispatcher (on remote shares)

    Hi,
    On my laptop I'm using systemd and networkmanager, like many of you I suppose.
    I have an NFS-server setup at home and one at work, so I would prefer to only connect to the NFS-server within my reach and not send out credentials into the wild when the other NFS-server is not around. I thought that nm_dispatcher is the perfect solution and I wrote a script that accomplishes this with the sysV initscripts.
    Now I'm using systemd and my laptop won't shutdown anymore: it hangs at unmounting my disks.
    I guess the nm_dispatcher-script to unmount the NFS-exports is never run, and so the NFS-exports are never unmounted.
    Questions:
    1. Is this the expected behaviour or is this a bug somewhere?
    2. Can systemd do this natively? I know it is able to mount remote shares, but can you also specify that the mount should only be tried if connected to a specific SSID?
    THX!

    Sharepoints is not needed in your case, it's for controlling what "other" Isers can access.
    Logging into the Remote one with the Remote one's User &PW gives you the samr rights as being there and logging onto it!
