When try to connect as Guest get Connection Failed - There are no shares ..

When trying to connect across home network to MacBook from a MacBook Pro when I try to sign in as Guest I get a Connection Failed error - There are no shares available or you are not allowed to access them... error. If I connect as a Registered User everything goes fine.
I can connect find as a Guest the other direction from the MacBook to the MBP; Guest account sharing is enabled on both computers; there are shared directories on both computers; there is no firewall enabled. Ideas....?

I have this exact same problem with 2 MacBook Pro's both running 10.6.5
I've double checked that the settings are identical on both machines, yet only one of the them can connect to the other using the Guest account. When the Guest account doesn't work and I use the registered user of the other machine, it connects fine. I just would like to be able to use the simple Drop Box function.

    Power the phone off completely. Plug the USB end of the cord into the computer, leaving the other end unplugged from the phone. While the phone is powered off, open up iTunes, hold down the home button on the phone, and plug in the USB cord to the phone, making sure you keep holding down the home button. In about 15 seconds you should get a pop-up in itunes saying that it's detected an iPhone in recovery mode. Click 'Ok' and 'Restore'.
    Your iOS update crashed and your phone is in recovery mode. The good news is that this will fix it, bad news is that unless you had everything backed up in either iTunes or iCloud, you've lost everything as your phone was wiped when the iOS update crashed.

  • When try to connect my iPod touch 4th gen to my house Wifi it won't connect, it used to work fine but now it dosen't work, but it does say that the internet is available, but when I tap on it it just loads. all other devices work fine.

    When try to connect my iPod touch 4th gen to my house Wifi it won't connect, it used to work fine but now it dosen't work, but it does say that the internet is available, but when I tap on it it just loads. all other devices work fine.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    If you have ios 5.1.1 the output power is 100ma, on the iOS 5.0.1 the power output is 500ma! This may be the cause?

  • When I try to launch terminal, i get an error "You are not authorized to run this applicationThe administrator has set your shell to an illegal value."

    When I try to launch terminal, i get an error "You are not authorized to run this applicationThe administrator has set your shell to an illegal value."

    If you'd asked a question in your original post it might have solicited more pertinent responses. As it is, you were stating a fact. No one knew whether you considered that fact a problem, or what you were hoping to gain by doing so.
    The simple addition of 'can anyone help me fix this so I can run Terminal' would have counted for a lot.
    As it is, your solution is likely to require the Terminal, so you're going to need to fix that one way or another. The simplest would be to create a new admin account (System Preferences -> Users & Groups) then log in using that account.
    Then try and launch the terminal. If that works the problem is specific to your original account and can likely be fixed via some command-line tweaking. I'd start with:
    dscl . read /Users/<username>
    (where <username> is the short name of the account having a problem). This will show the records in the directory data for your account, one of which will be UserShell. Chances are that value is invalid, or missing, and can be corrected via:
    sudo dscl . -change /Users/<username> UserShell <currentValue> /bin/bash
    (where <currentValue) is the current setting for UserShell) which will change the user's shell to /bin/bash (the default).
    Of course, you might already know this and already tried, but since you didn't say so in your original post it's worth checking.

  • After years of no problems I can't print photos. When I select print I get the message "There are no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed this feature will be unavailable.  What are themes? How do I install them?

    After years of no problems I sddenly can't print photos. When I select print I get the message "There are no themes located. Until at least one theme has been installed this feature will be unavailable.  What are themes? How do I install them? Why has this problem suddenly arisen?

    Re-installing does not affect your Library in any way. You don't delete it, only the app.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

    When I try to restore from my iCloud they say there are a problem of back up data so what can I do ?

    Unfortunately, nothing.  If there is a problem with the backup you won't be able to use it.  You'll have to restor a backup from your computer using iTunes, if you have one.

  • When I sync my phone with my macbook pro, there are "3,307 items that could not be synced". What do I do?

    When I sync my phone with my macbook pro, there are "3,307 items that could not be synced". What do I do?

    What you should do is figure out why no songs will sync:
    Is there an Apple ID problem?  That's the most likely reason.  Maybe you haven't signed in to your Apple ID on iTunes.  Maybe the Apple ID on your computer differs from that on your iPhone.
    Have you been syncing your iPhone to some other computer?  It only syncs to one computer.
    Are you using the latest iTunes?  The current version is 11.0.5.

  • HT1338 for itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updtes and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

    For itunes 10.7 it is saying that my mac need version OS X needs to be version 10.8.6 - how do i get this? There are no current software updates and i cant use iTunes for my new iphone 5

    I think you meant 10.6.8, not 10.8.6
    It requires an upgrade, instead of a free update.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.

    I have an iMac OS X ver 10.7.5.  Processor speed is 3.06 GHz intel core i3, and the memory is 4 GB 1333 MHz RAM.  My online banking app is being updated and requires OS ver 10.8 or newer.  When I ask for available updates, the system says there are none available.  How can I update my system to ver 10.8 or newer to accommodate the new banking app?

    You can update directly to Yosemite (for free) through the App Store (this is 10.10). Make sure your existing applications will run on this OS.
    If you wish to stay at 10.8, you can order this through the online Apple Store (it's $20), and they will email you a redemption code to be used on the App Store.
