Users cannot see XServe after an undetermined time

I have an office with an Xserve G5 with OS X Server 10.5.5 and 10 PowerMac G5 clients with OS X 10.5.5
The Xserve does nothing special except offer and FTP server and share files among the office... each user gets to the server via the left and Finder panel under shared... sometimes when they click on it the little hatched swirling circle will spin saying it is connecting and nothing happens...
There is no rhyme of reason for this.. I do not have the server set to kick users off after a pre determined time... Does anyone else have this issue...
I have a 20-port 3com Switch... could this be going bad? Everything else seems to be fine in the office (internet connectivity, ect.)
Any insight would be very helpful.

Hi - yes I did that last night and unlike rebuilding via control option route, IPLM did not rebuild those files.  It stated they do not exist.  I double checked by "Show Package Contents" and the master of those files is no longer there.  My next move is to go into Time Machine and see if I can restore the library from when the files were still in there (though unseen by iPhoto) and hope the master are still recoverable.  If that doesn't work, then I'm at the point of accepting that perhaps I may have lost 51 photos (1 event) during this upgrade.  I'm still open to suggestions though.

    Select the End User checkbox.
    You can leave the default entry for the Administrator column as None.
    no_safety
    Visitors (for example, the everyone group)
    Select the End User checkbox.
    You can leave the default entry for the Administrator column as None.

  • After running Appstore, the iphone cannot auto shutdown after the predefined time

    After running Appstore, the iphone cannot auto shutdown after the predefined time.

    Pressing the Home button only quits the selected application only. Doing so with Safari available will quit Safari, but this does not reset the iPhone.
    The only way to Reset an iPhone is by pressing and holding the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release.
    No apple stores in the area but my sister and mom are going to an area where there is one so I guess I'll give it to them to take along and see if they can swap it out for another or fix it.
    You must make an appointment at an Apple Store, so unless you are able to do so and unless you are able to go with them (especially if an exchange might be involved), I suggest giving AppleCare a call instead.

  • New Jabber user cannot see (only) one of the added buddies

    Running ichat server, just a handful of OD users. OD is on the same machine as Ichat server. Nothing is limiting the use of Ichat by any of the OD users. Server G5 10.4.9, Clients managed Intel Imacs 10.4.9
    Added a new user.
    New user can add buddies in the Jabber List.
    New user can see all but 1 of them in the List.
    One of the buddies, lets say UserX, can see the new user in her Jabber List.
    No matter what we have tried from within Ichat the new user cannot see UserX.
    Both users are members of the same groups and have matching access abilities.
    Any suggestions. Thanks for looking at this.

    New user can see all but 1 of them in the List.
    If I understand it this correctly, 'new user' can see all other buddies except one. And all the other users can see this buddy.
    Lets call the new user "userX" and the one they cannot see "userY" and lets call your ichat server "jabber.myserver.com"
    The configuration files for users buddylist is stored in the spool di rectorywhich you can find at /var/jabber/spool/. In there you will find a directory the matches the name of your ichat server. For me that is jabber.clayford.com. In this directory you will find one xml file for eash user of ichat server. Their file name is the OD logon name for the server.
    Stop the ichat server service and make back up of any files you edit before you start.
    Open the file for "userX.xml" In this file you will see some xml code that starts <item jid='[email protected]' subscription='xxxxxx'>. there will be a number of them, one for each buddy.
    Mke sure the xxxxxx is the word 'both' [with the quotes] and if the text ask='subscribe' exists in that line before the >,remove it. So that definition should now be: <item jid='[email protected]' subscription='both'>.
    Save the file and now open the file userY.xml and check that the item <item jid='[email protected]' subscription='both'> exists.
    Restart the ichat server and the problem should be fixed...

  • One user cannot see Inactive Addresses in Account Overview

    One user cannot see Inactive Addresses in Account Overview in the CRM 7.0 IC.
    This user has the same roles and authorizations as all the other users.
    We have also performed a user comparison in CRM and ERP and have also reset the user buffers in both systems.
    If I copy the user to another user in CRM and ERP the copied user can see the Inactive addresses. A user comparison shows that the user and copied user are identical.
    Any ideas?

    Just a gamble, but check his user parameters in SU01.

  • Why is it when I convert a Keynote show into HTML, PC users cannot see it properly? Using latest OS and Keynote versions.

    Why is it when I convert a keynote show into HTML, PC users cannot see it properly on their computers?

    There is never any guarantee that automatically generated html will look right on every browser, especially Explorer.  For max compatibility with MS stuff it's best to use Office to start with instead of iWorks.
    I don't know whether you could manually edit the Keynote html to make it work better with Explorer.  It would be interesting to know whether it looks right in Windows Safari, Chrome, or FireFox so you could know whether only IE does it wrong.

  • I have a application installed in my apps folder but others users cannot see them

    I installed an app on my imac using OSX Lion. The app is in the application folder of the admin account. The other standard users cannot see the app. Is there a way that they can use the app and see it in the application folder when they log in?

    Then move it into their application folders as well.

  • Lion-Windows users cannot see attachments

    I just upgraded to Lion, and now some Windows users cannot see/find attachments. I did all that was advised (clicking on the "Windows user friendly" list), but to no avail. I sent to several Windows users and no one can see attachments with the new Mail program. Also, one of the most important icons in the Mail toolbar ("Add Attachment") seems to be missing. This sometimes helped in previous Mail versions when sending to PCs, but I cannot locate it in Lion. Looks like I will have to use Microsoft Office Outlook for email. This is too bad, as I like the other features the new Apple Mail program has, but must use a trustworhty email program.

    Scott,
    The issue is one I am chasing, and is due to Lion's change to not send Plain Text (apparently).  Although changed in the Compose window, when reviewed, it will have been sent with HTML, anyway.
    While the actual problem is with MS and Outlook or Outlook Express, the work around once was to use the command to Make Plain Text before sending.

  • My users cannot see my java applets

    I have a few java applets on my web page, but most of the users cannot see them.
    I have changed my html's with the HTML Converter, hoping to overcome the problem, and got the following codes in my html's:
    In the <OBJECT> tag:
    http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/autodl/jinstall-1_4-windows-i586.cab#Version=1,4,0,0
    In the <EMBED> tag:
    http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/index.html#download
    Questions:
    1. Will these URL's in the html automatically download, or tell the user about the java installations he needs?
    2. Is it the Java-Plugin or the Java Virtual Machine users have to download to view java programs?
    Even if you don't have the answer I would be grateful if you can tell me if you are able see my java applet. If you can, you should see a flashing text reading "Mixed" in the middle of this page:
    http://medlem.spray.se/kungsgarden/mixed_e.htm
    Best regards,
    Mona

    Questions:
    1. Will these URL's in the html automatically
    download, or tell the user about the java
    installations he needs?Yes, on most browsers, the URLs and html you have written will automatically download the plugin or tell them where to go to get it. As a rule of thumb, if your users are on IE the plugin will automaitcally be downloaded. If your users are on Netscape they will be directed to the url in the embed tag. Your page looks right. It could be the code has an error in it and it is not the html. See my previous reply. Looks for errors and post them for me to see.
    2. Is it the Java-Plugin or the Java Virtual Machine
    users have to download to view java programs?The Java plugin run the Java Virtual Machine. So, they have to download both to view applets, but they come together since the Java Virtual Machine is inside the Java Plugin.

  • Cannot see photos after upgrading to iPhoto 9.1.3

    I upgraded my iPhoto to 9.1.3 and now I cannot see some of my photos.  iPhoto indicates the photos are there, but all I see is blank dotted frames where thumbnails should be. When I click on one of the photos I get a gray out frame with an exclamation in the middle.  I tried rebuilding the library/thumbnails, extracting using iPhoto LIbrary Manager, checking disk permissions/repairing in Utilties, etc.  I tried every suggestions and recommendations I found on the net, but I still cannot see those files.  I regret deleting them off my camera disc.  These are the only masters I have.  So I can't copy them back into the library. If anyone know how I can retrieve these files, please let me know.   I also went back in my Time Machine and the same files are all empty gray frames.  All I know is that the files were "visible" before the upgrade and now I can't see them after the upgrade.  Any suggestions?

    Hi - yes I did that last night and unlike rebuilding via control option route, IPLM did not rebuild those files.  It stated they do not exist.  I double checked by "Show Package Contents" and the master of those files is no longer there.  My next move is to go into Time Machine and see if I can restore the library from when the files were still in there (though unseen by iPhoto) and hope the master are still recoverable.  If that doesn't work, then I'm at the point of accepting that perhaps I may have lost 51 photos (1 event) during this upgrade.  I'm still open to suggestions though.

  • Please help: User cannot see webi report data

    Hi,
    I've got a wired problem here in my webi report. Basically I am located in Singapore and produced a webi report for our user in UK. The report looks totally fine with all the data shown correctly. But when our report user logged into the dashboard from UK, she could only see partial data and some of the information are missing(blank cells in the report).
    To verify the cause I've done the following test:
    1. I remote control her computer and log into dashboard using my account, the result is I get same problem and I cannot see some of the data.
    2. I let her remote control my pc and log into dashboard using her account, she no longer has this problem and can see complete data.
    We use same version of IE, same JAVA version. And the report data is not time sensitive, so different time zone might not the possible cause.
    This problem is killing me. Can anyone please help and let me know any possible solution? Thanks so much.

    Hi Sinsin, what version of BusinessObjects are you using? Is it XI 3.1?
    I don't know if it is the same problem or not, but I have seen that before when a user cannot view the data, change the font and/or background color and the data becomes visible. Reinstalling the client fixed that problem. If you couldn't figure out the root cause, you might want to consider this option.
    If you are using the BusinessObjects tool, you should join [ASUG|www.asug.com]

  • Windows user cannot see files copied into a folder

    File share is on a Windows 2008 (R1) server.  
    We use shared folders as mailboxes for users.  When the file scanning person (Heidi) scans the incoming paper mail, it is placed in each user's individual mail folder on a shared drive.  Each user has full control permissions on their mail folder.
     All of our users are running Windows 7 Pro x64, with the exception of two people who run Windows XP SP3.  Heidi is one of those users.  
    Angela has a mail folder with full control permissions.  When Heidi scans something from her desktop and places it in Angie's mail folder, Angela cannot see it from her computer.  Anyone else can see it fine.
    I set up a Windows 7 VM and logged in as Angela and I can see the file with no problems.  So the only time Angie can't see her files is when she's logged in to her computer in her own office.  Anyone know why?  

    Hi,
    You did not mentioned the system version of Angela so I assume it is a Windows 7 system.
    There is a known issue when Windows 7 users accessing a folder, newly created or deleted files are not updated immediately. Please test the following hotfix.
    SMB2 directory cache is not updated correctly if a file is deleted in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2646563/en-us
    Also the rollup update is always recommended to be installed:
    An enterprise hotfix rollup is available for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

  • Other Mac users cannot see my shared public folder

    Other users on my network cannot see my Public shared folder. I can see their public folders no problem. I can connect to my computer from another Mac and "connect as" myself and see folders.
    I have File Sharing turned on. Permissions look copacetic. It says I'm the owner of the shared folder.
    IT's has a profile on this same machine – its Public folder shows up for other users. When I set up a new account profile, its shared folder shows up no problem.
    It may, just may, have to do with me changing my short login name after migrating to this machine. Problem is, I have no idea how to confirm that. Finder shows proper ownership and permissions in the info windows. I think there's something deeper down in the account system level that is wrong, but I don't know where to look.

    If you have admin rights, you can create a new account in System Preferences and see if that shared folder shows up on the network. If it does, then it could be related to changing short name (which I have heard you aren't suppose to do). If not, it may be something in the system. Give that a try and post back what happens.

  • Guest users cannot see or connect to shares on Snow Leopard 10.6.1

    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard from 10.5. After upgrading, users connecting as "guest" to my computer cannot see any of the shares (and therefore cannot connect to them).
    If I connect as my administrator user from another computer, I can see all the shares, as well as all the volumes.
    I have verified that the Guest Account is enabled (Allow guests to log in to this computer) in the Accounts preference pane, and of course File Sharing is turned on in the Sharing pane, and all the shares are listed with the correct permissions.
    This is a very strange and perplexing problem. Any help would be most appreciated!

    If they are connecting as a registered user they can see all the shares....but as a guest they cannot...I'm trying to find what might causes that problem....I really cannot think any logical reason... Everything in my options seems to be ok... So after the 10.6.2 update your problem solved ? I think that you were very lucky man...If you find any answer to that problem please let me know...
    Anyway,Thank you for your reply!
