Where are my shared computers?

I am having a lot of trouble with Leopard when it comes to accessing other computers on my network. They do not appear in my "shared" list in the finder. Although I can access them by typing in their IP addresses. Previous OSX versions allowed you to simply browse your network to see all Macs running AppleTalk. How is this done in Leopard? Typing in the IPs is getting old. Help!

Hi Rick,
If you are trying to access the mini using the powerbook over a network, the username and password the mini is asking for are ones that reside on the mini, not the powerbook. The easiest way to keep all this stuff straight is to setup two accounts on each computer with the same username and password for each. Then you only have to remember one. However, this is not the most secure practice although I really doubt if the average user would run into trouble doing this. Also look for a check box option at the logon window to remember your username and password when signing on in the future. This will make the login process almost automatic and you won't be presented with a dialog box anymore. Hope that helps!

    Where are imac apple computers available with the matt display?...

    You would need to find a 3rd party authorized vender who may be installing some sort of matte display. Or there are kits on the market to apply a matte finish to your display. AFAIK, all Macs have glossy finished displays.

  • Where are imported shared libraries defined

    in system-application.xml, the imported-shared-libraries are defined as :
    <imported-shared-libraries>
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.dms"/>
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.jdbc"/>
    and these are used in server.xml like:
    <import-shared-library name="oracle.jdbc"/>
    my questions is where does the imported libraries name and actual jar files defined. for ex. for the name oracle.jdbc, where are the jar libraries location defined?
    I got a problem looks like application server not able to find these jars unless I copy them to the applib folder.
    Thanks

    Additional shared libraries may be configured to override the default shared libaries, including the oracle.jdbc library.

  • What are these shared computers and how do I remove them from Finder?

    I have four Macs on my closed, hidden wifi network. Two iMacs and Two macbooks. For some reason, two unknown computers are showing up on the network, but only on two out of the four macs, one imac and one macbook, incedentally the two units with built in SD card readers. They are: hp0025b3e8a8ca and hp3c4a921329ca. I'll post a screen shot. They both have one folder called MEMORY_CARD and I can't open it. I've double checked, I don't have SMB sharing enabled on any of my macs. They have the little icon associated with a windows machine. Any idea what these are and how I can remove them from finder? is someone else on my network?

    How are u connected, as in ISP, University Network, etc.? I get shares like that too, as my ISP here in Nepal is using some crazy way of sharing connections with customers. I called and asked them once, but they have not clue about Macs. I suspect it's a technician doing some work in the office, who is tapped into the same C1 connection that I am using, but it is a bit disconcerting to see computers you don't know on your Network.
    When I teach in Thailand, I am on a university system that will show all the users connected to the same hotspot. That's why I lock down my sharing when there. It's kinda crazy, as I don't really understand all the security settings and what they imply. It would be nice if there were a guide for home/small business Lans on what exactly the settings should be in OSX, but I suppose it's all out there in Google, somewhere...

  • Switched from iPhoto to Aperture 3; where are my shared albums?

    I've been using Home Sharing to share my iPhoto libraries across my home WiFi network between two Macs. The shared library disappeared after upgrading to Aperture 3 on my MBP and I can't find (or haven't found?) any reference to Home Sharing in the Aperture 3 manual. What am I missing? How can I get my library shared again? My library reappears when I launch iPhoto, but of course none of the work I've done in Aperture is reflected in the iPhoto albums. Thanks.

    It may be that you have only switched to an empty Library.  After quitting Aperture, hold down the Option key while clicking to launch Aperture again.  Look at the choices of libraries it presents, and look for one with content, listing number of originals and versions.
    Keep us posted.

  • Where are movies shared to Apple devices stored exactly? When I shut down FCPX the shared movie disappears from iTunes.

    FCPX v10.2
    Destination settings:
    Apple Devices 1080p
    Video Codec: H.264 Better Quality
    Resolution: 1920x1080
    Add to playlist: Library
    Many thanks for anyone who can help me before I completely lose my mind!

    "Just to be clear, when you use the show in Finder function in iTunes it takes you to the share folder inside the FCP bundle, is that correct?" - correct
    From my iTunes preferences the  /Users/(myusername)/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Home Videos
    I added that subfolder to distinguish home videos from purchased movies.
    thanks for your help btw!

  • How can I determine what computers are home sharing??

    How can I determine what computers are home sharing??

    Launch iTunes on the computers you're interested in. Check in the "Advanced" menu.
    If "Turn on Home Sharing" is listed as an option, the iTunes library that you have open is not Home Sharing.
    If "Turn off Home Sharing ([accountname]) is listed as an option, the iTunes library that you have open is Home Sharing.

  • HT1600 after the update, i have only computers and settings icon, Where are the others ? youtube etc.

    after the update, i have only computers and settings icon, Where are the others ? youtube etc.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Check you have an internet connection and that you are using the correct iTunes store location setting.
    Try restarting the router.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

  • Where are shared iPhoto streams stored?

    Where are shared iPhoto streams stored? Is it on my phone, ipad, etc? Where does it take up space?

    On the device that create the shared photo stream, and on every device that subscribes to it.  They do not, however, use storage in your iCloud account.

  • Where are the files stored for shared applications?

    Hello,
    When I go to iTunes/iPad/Apps and then choose Pages under "File Sharing" and move a few files over, where are those files stored? Does iTunes make another copy and store it somewhere or does it just reference the location I copied from?
    Also, if I move a file over and then delete that file, does it delete from the File Sharing section as well the next time I sync?

    The information/data for apps is stored together with the app in both the iPad and in the backup on your computer. When you drop a file in the file sharing section of apps it gets added to the backup and to the iPad. When you delete it it get deleted from the backup and from the iPad.

  • Connect to server but where are the computers?

    In Panther I could use the CONNECT TO SERVER in the Finder and I would see a list of all the Mac and Windows computers on my university network... like Windows Network Neighborhood. Great for finding PCs to drop my files into colleagues` shared folders. BUT where have all the computers gone in Tiger CONNECT TO SERVER? If I know the computer name or IP address then no problem but as it is grading time I need to drop Excel files into course coordinators` PC and Mac shared folders. Should I revive my Lombard G3 with Panther OR is there a 10.4/ Tiger solution? I simply want to see all the computers on the uni network.
    Thanks.

    One difference between Tiger and Panther is that Panther understands AFP over Appletalk, that was dropped in Tiger, which only does AFP over TCP/IP.
    Don't know if AFP or Appletalk even enters into the equation though.

  • Suddenly can't connect to shared computers or screen share

    For some reason I can no longer connect to my shared computers. I can however connect to MY computer from my shared computers, if that makes sense.
    From my own computer, when I go to my shared list in the finder, I click on a computer (normally it all automatically connects because I have the password remembered), I click "connect as" and I never get any response, sometimes a "connection failed" I know file sharing is enabled on all computers.
    Is there a way to refresh my list? What can I do to reconnect to my shared computers? This seems to have been happenings since I last updated the OS.
    Also, I can no longer do a screen share where I was doing this regularly every day.
    Thanks

  • Where are my sparsebundles? Missing...

    Hey guys,
    If I view my TC all I see is a folder that says "backups.backupdb / MyComputerName / and then a lot of folders dated with subfolders for the same computer. I've been backing up several computers to this TC and am a little concerned that I don't see any sparsebundle files. Where are they or what is going on?
    Thanks so much.
    Best,
    Rob

    Welcome to the discussions!
    If you open Macintosh HD, you should be able to see the Time Capsule icon under the SHARED heading on the left side of the window.
    Click on the TC icon and a folder will appear to the right
    Double click this folder and you should see a xxxxx.sparsebundle file for each computer that has been backing up to the device. The "x" may designate the name of the computer or a portion of its MAC address.
