Windows 7 64bit indexing network mapped drive

Hi people,
I've spent a lot of time with windows indexing on mapped drive. But without result. I've tried install hotfix, but nothing happens, Add-in works only for 32bit system, but I use 64bit. Using of symbolic link in library is without result too. I don't know,
why MS released add-in only for 32bit. Could you help me, how to solve this problem?
Thanks

Watched folders and network mapped drives

Using watched folders feature, If I select one of my network mapped drives, PSE7 display a message saying the path is wrong :
Any chance it could work ? Thank you ...

You gave us no details on how your clients are configured.
If you are runnning Windows clients, then you need to enable machine authentication ON THE WIRELESS CLIENT and on ACS. Since you are using TLS, you also need to have a machine certificate on the computer.
Machine authentication will allow the wireless computer to connect to the wireless network BEFORE the user logs on. In this way, login scripts and drive mappings will take place the same way they would with a wired connection.
I believe you can search Cisco.com for an article that talks about the ACS and client settings for machine auth.

Form6i can't call another form on network mapping drive ?

Network mapped drives

Dear
We started using the wireless network at our Company but users are unable to connect to network mapped drives when using wireless ,the Wired User can see and use map drive PLEASEI NEED HELP TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE

Software install in Windows 7 doesn't see mapped drives

I've looked through the related topics that came up when I started to write this, but I am not sure they answer my questions fully.
I am trying to install software on a Windows 7 box as the Administrator. My mapped drives are fine, I can see them and they are not dropping off to the middle of nowhere. What is happening though is that when I attempt to install software, the only thing
that is showing is my local drives, not my networked drives. My work around so far is do it via UNC.
Is there an easy fix for this or do I have to continue with my workaround of doing installs via UNC?

Hi,
I would like to confirm that does this issue occur on all the software you tried to install?
You may try to
disable User Account Control (UAC) to test the issue.
If it does not work, I also would like to suggest you enable NetBIOS to test the issue.
1. Click "Start", input "NCPA.CPL" (without quotation marks) and press Enter.
2. Right click on the connection that you use for the local connection, and then click "Properties".
3. Click Continue button to verify the administrator permission.
4. Click to select "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)", and then click "Properties".
5. Click "Advanced" button in the open window. On the "WINS" tab, click to select "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP", and then click "OK" to save the setting.
If the issue persists, I also would like to suggest you disable the antivirus program and test the issue in
Clean Boot.
What is the result?

File share, network mapped drives

Simple network. One Server and two clients. For a year the network was great. File shares operated perfectly. Last Tuesday windows automatically downloaded and installed security updates and the network connectivity went down.
I have discovered that if the firewalls are turned off the mapped drives will connect. When the firewalls are turned back on the mapped drives drop and communication goes bye bye. I have tried so many things. Adding new rules, opening ports
and still the network will fail when the firewalls are turned back on. If anyone has any suggestions I need help. The OS on the server is Windows Server 2008, the clients are running Windows 7 professional. The only other software on the
pc's is AVG business security edition. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank You.

Hi,
Please make sure that the TCP port 139, 445 and UDP port 137, 138 are open in the firewall.

Coldfusion Cannot Detect Network Mapping Drive

I am using CFdirectory tag and want to use mapped drive in
the directory attribute. and ColdFusion is unable to detect the
mapped drive.
Coldfusion is running as a System service.
My question is how can i create a mapped drive , so that
Coldfusion can detect it.
Thank you

Starting from Win2003 (or it happened earlier?), drives are
mapped per user (info kept in user profiles). Therefore, if you
mapped a network path to a logical drive, as, let's say,
Administrator, the service running under another account cannot see
it. Options:
1. Run service under specific account.
2. Use UNC convention: \\server\share\path

How do I get windows 7 to Index a network mapped drive?

I would like to change the location of my lobraries in Win 7 to a network drive but every time I change the location, it says it cannot be used because it's not indexed, so how do I get a network drive to be indexed or if there is a way around it I'd accept that too.

here's a solution... that indexes the contents of a folder on another networked computer - WITHOUT MAPPING THE NETWORK...
I don't like to spend a lot of time screwing around with the "mindboggling" os conflict stuff of Microsoft with Windows 7, Vista, xp-pro, etc.
THIS WORKS FOR ME... but since I'm just an "average user," I can't always explain the "intuitive" computer solutions to problems that I come up with in a sequential "step like" manner...
This SOLUTION may be useful in resolving other networking conflict issues when you are using various hardware and software.
The TWO computers I'm using for this example: a gaming Windows 7 x64 laptop, and an XP-Pro desktop. (I also have a Vista laptop, and another desktop with XP-home... but I don't use those that often - so I don't really care if this "solution"
works on those, etc.)
Anyway, I'll tell you the steps I did, though, I don't really understand "how all this works" - it just does.
Some points first, before I give you a "step by step..."
1. I can always access ALL NETWORK LOCATIONS AND FILES from my "Windows 7 x64" laptop.
2. I often can't access all network locations, etc. from my XP-Pro desktop... sometimes I can, but I don't know what I have done to cause this... and it's not to important to me... as long as MY MAIN LAPTOP can access everything on the network all
the time. (This probably has something to do with WIN 7 being "backwardly compatible" with previous hardware/software like XP but NOT THE REVERSE, etc. So, whenever I'm doing something "involving my network" ... I try to work "top-down" from the superior
WIN 7 system, etc.
OK... here's what I did... "experts" can figure out "if this is useful to you" and whether it has "other potential uses, etc."
here's a rough sketch of the "problem I was having" and the solution.
I often jump between two computers on my network... the win7 laptop and the xp pro desktop... and I wanted to have a "notepad file" that I use as a daily "do list," and I wanted to have it's contents change and be in sync, no matter which computer I had
updated the notepad file on. Now, I know THAT CAPABILITY is simply a matter of having it shared on the network. Now I originally created the notepad file on the xp desktop. Then, I went upstairs and found the shared folder I had put it in
from the desktop... and, of course, I could "change the contents of the file in sync" between the two computers...
Now, the problem came in when (from my laptop I could NOT INDEX the "shared folder on my desktop.") I tried MAPPING the network drive, and IT WOULDN'T do it...(some kind of issue between win7 and xp, etc.)
ANOTHER COMPLETELY DIFFERENT APPROACH occurred to me... AND THAT WORKED...so here's what was involved... and it INDEXED THE "SHARED FOLDER ON THE DESKTOP COMPUTER" without "mapping the network." ...why this works... YA GOT ME... BUT IT DOES!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: (all below is for WIN 7 X64 networked with older systems like XP... this method may work in other cases, too)
1. I created a "notepad" file on my xp desktop. (called the file "bingo.txt")
2. Created a "folder" and named it "bingo" also. (made this a "shared folder" and put the "bingo.txt" file in it)
3. Did a "network locations" search for this folder and put it in with the other shared folders/files in the "desktop network" location.
4. Went upstairs to my "win7 laptop"
a. pressed the Start button and entered "favorites" (without the quotation marks) into the little "search" rectangle that appeared just above the Start button. The "Favorites" folder appeared at the top of the list. I clicked on it and
the Favorites folder opened... then I "right clicked" on the "Recent Places" folder and created a "shortcut" on my desktop.
b. Now, whenever I click on any folder or file including the "shortcut to bingo.txt (which is on my win7 laptop for quick access)...well, the NETWORKED FOLDER: "bingo" suddenly shows up in "Recent Places" as a shortcut. THESE SHORTCUTS
CAN BE DELETED since that's all they are ... JUST BE SURE you are still in the RECENT PLACES FOLDER. For example: I clicked on a "shared network folder" and almost deleted it by accident... NOT REALIZING THAT I WAS NO LONGER IN THE "Recent Places"
folder...so, make sure before you delete. It's of course OK to "select all" and delete all the shortcuts that accumulate over time in the "Recent Places" folder, etc. Also I set the "sort" on the Recent Places folder to date/time, so that the "most
recent" place I have been "is always at the top of the list.
c. So, far - and this is interesting - ONLY FOLDERS SHOW UP in the locations you visit then look for in the "Recent Places" folder. So, for example, when I click on the shortcut (on my win7 laptop) for "bingo.txt"... and then later check the
Recent Places folder... well, only the "shared network folder BINGO appears there!" (not the bingo.txt file that's in it... I didn't click on the actual folder, just the bingo.txt shortcut, but what appears in the Recent Places folder IS ONLY THE NETWORK
FOLDER)
d. Now, the mystery: (my win7 computer was "indexing" in the background all this time) WHEN I DID A SEARCH FOR "bingo" ...the "bingo.txt" file was at the top of the list... I "right clicked" on it to check the properties (thinking the index has just
located the shortcut on my desktop maybe)...BUT THE PROPERTIES ...showed the "networked location" on my desktop downstairs.
e. IN CONCLUSION: I now have the capability to INDEX folders/files ON OTHER NETWORKED COMPUTERS from my "win7 x64 laptop" WITHOUT HAVING TO MAP THE NETWORK DRIVE!!! (maybe because the index catches the "bingo folder" being CURRENTLY ACCESSED
INDIVIDUALLY when I pull up the "Bingo.txt" by clicking it's shortcut on my laptop....
you guys can play around with this... DON'T KNOW WHY the "index" didn't show "bingo.txt" (residing on my desktop downstairs) until I placed a "shortcut" to the "Recent Places" folder on my laptop desktop screen... might have something to do with the "complex
index parameters" of Win 7, etc... but I don't have the time to try an trace it down, or test it, etc.
... The win 7 indexing system MAY INDEX ANY SHARED FOLDER from another networked computer WHEN IT'S BEING ACCESSED LIVE on the win 7 computer... is probably what's happening... so I didn't have to "map the network drive" but I did have to "BE ACCESSING A
FOLDER from another computer" for it to INDEX THAT FOLDER... now I don't, for example, know whether the INDEX system of my win7 laptop (running in the background) might not index a folder IF IT WAS DOING SOMETHING ELSE IN A BRIEF TIME that I was accessing
the folder from the other computer.
Win 7 index, from my experience, does seem to give some preference to INDEXING files you have recently or are currently accessing... if that helps.
anyway,
hope this helps some

Flash won't save to a network mapped drive

We upgraded a RAID5 disk array that we map from a network
share recently. The original disk was 1.8TB the new one is a GPT
disk that is 3.6TB.
Now when we try to save files from FLASH CS3 we get errors
concerning the file or disk is read only, make sure another program
doesn't have the file open..etc..etc...
All the permissions on the disk are fine. Photoshop CS3,
Dreamweaver etc..all play fine with the large GPT disk. Anyone else
have this problem or know of a solution.
I know the first release of Encore had this problem even with
TB drives. If it was over 1,000MB it did the same.
thanks for any input.
PS: I have let the adobe updated get all the appropriate
updates for all products.

Hi and welcome to Apple Discussions,
Did you get the flash drive from a reliable source. There are some available on the net that show a large capacity but are only 512 mb. or 1 gb. drives that have been altered to display a much larger capacity.
Good luck,

[ms-1719/gx700] - windows 7 64bit - mass storage controller driver missing

Hi,
I have a question about finding/installing the mass storage controller driver, after a clean install of win7 sp1 64bit (home edition).
I bought a new drive (Seagate ST9500420AS), onto which I installed the OS.
I thought the OS itself was supposed to install this driver?.....I looked at Seagate's site and they say the same thing. For good measure I used the "live update 5" MSI utility to see if they could provide it for my mobo....nothing useful came up there, and also looked at their page for my laptop model (GX700) no such drivers available either....neither for XP/Vista, let alone win7 64bit.
After installing the OS I also went out to Intel's site and downloaded/installed the latest chipset drivers for my mobo/chipset as well.....that didnt fix it.
so question is, where can I find this if none of the above worked??.
here's my detailed specs page:

thanks,

guys,
thanks a lot for the quick replies.
@Stu:
I was actually wondering about those...if those micro reader drivers were what I needed...thanks for confirming and point at the x64 version. I'll put them on pretty soon, see what happens.
@Henry,
no, I wasnt aware about that at all.....but now that you mentioned it, it makes sense, the difference between my old sata1 and the new sata2. I am pretty inexperienced when it comes to messing w/ hardware, so the question is where would I get a jumper block like that?
also if I leave it as I have for the last 2 months since I had the new HD, what could happen w/out our the jumper block?....data loss/corruption, anything like that or worse??.....just wondering if it'd be ok for me to leave it as is, or if there are any issues that can come up, for which it'd be worth for me to get the jumper and install it as you mention.
also if not having this jumper does cause any issues, I was wonder if it could cause certain blank-out crashes that I've been having, which seemed so far to be related to vidcard.....but not sure if this difference between sata1 and sata2 could actually be causing these....here is the thread for that if you have any thoughts...

Bootcamp - OSx on one hard drive and windows 7 64bit on another hard drive

I have browsed the forum and the net without getting a clear answer
Fact:
With optical bay and two hard drives there is a posibility to use two harddrives within the sam MacBook Pro. The reason is space and speed, I want loads of space to all my projects and i want to use SSD that are not so spacious.
Need:
I want OSx on primary hard drive, and win7 64bit on the drive in the optical bay, replacing the DVD.
Question:
Is there a posibility to set up bootcamp this way, and how does one procede to land in this solution.
Please help me with a clear answer.

Installing on multiple drives of course can be done.
I consider it normal, common sense approach.

Windows 7 64bit USB 3.0 driver for HP ENVY Phoenix 810-200nc

Hello,
I bought HP ENVY Phoenix 810-200nc with windows 8.1preinstaled. I wiped up win 8 and install windows 7 proffesional 64 bit, but USB 3 dont working (mouse, keyboard its ok, but external disk no), USB 2 it's absolutely ok. THX.

Can you post the PCI\VEN character string for the USB device that lacks a driver?
The following image is an example. Right click any device without a driver and select properties to invoke the properties window. See the cues I pointed out in the Properties window to get to the PCI\VEN character string.

Windows 8 (64bit) - LI2341t Monitor - Unsigned driver issue

Please direct me to a working link to download SIGNED WINDOWS 8.1 drivers for the LI2341t Monitor. The drivers that are included on the install disk all fail to install on Windows 8.1 because they are unsigned.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Did you ever find an answer for this. I have the same issue where by the monitor works, but when I go to install the windows drivers from the disk they will not install on my Windows 8.1 machine as it says they are unsigned. When I try to download drivers from the Lenovo site it downloads some program that required you sign up and pay. I am at witts end here. Like I said everything works, but it would be nice to have the correct drivers.
Lenovos support seems to be non-existent. This may be the last thing I buy from them.

EA4500 – Smart Wi-Fi interface and Windows Network Map issues

I purchased this Router about 2 weeks ago as a phased upgrade of our Home Network, primarily to enhance media streaming. It has the latest firmware preinstalled from the factory. Prior to the purchase and installation of the EA4500 Router I replaced my old Motorola SurfBoard SB6120 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem with a Motorola SurfBoard SB6141 DOCSIS 3.0 Cable Modem. My old Linksys E2000 Router worked perfectly with the SB6141, with the exception that the E2000 wasn’t IPv6 enabled, but does have 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet (RJ-45) and Internet ports.
The EA4500 has been installed for about 10 days and seems to have improved local network speeds and I don’t seem to be having any Internet connectivity issues. However, there are some disturbing issues with the EA4500 and the AE3000 I purchased. There are 11 devices connected through the Router; a Dell Desktop (wireless with the AE3000), a Dell Desktop (Ethernet), a Dell Laptop (wireless), 2 Canon Printers (1 Ethernet and 1 Wireless), 2 Western Digital 1TB MyBookLive Network Drives (both Ethernet), a WD TV Live Streaming Media Player (wireless), an Apple TV media player (wireless), an iPad (wireless), and an Android Smartphone (wireless).
Issue 1 – The Linksys Smart Wi-Fi interface appears to be unreliable at times!!! I’ve read about this problem here on the Community involving the EA6500, so I don’t know if this is a Linksys Server issue, as suggested in a few responses, or a bug in the Router firmware, or defective hardware. However, when the interface locks up, it can’t be accessed from a wireless or wired connection. Usually, powering down the Router and then powering it back up and restart will allow it to function again. However, at times before the interface completely locks up it shows either just a white screen or the security screen will show no firewall features enabled. This is a little scary, so I’ll do a complete reset and setup; this is becoming a pain in the rear!!!!! Is there any hope for this being fixed, in this Router, not the next generation??????????
Issue 2 - All of my network devices show up in the Router’s Device List. Except for the Apple devices they also show up, when they are online, in Windows 7 Explorer under Network and when you click on Network they are correctly displayed as Computers, Media Devices, Network Infrastructure, or Storage. However, when you click on “Open Network and Sharing Center” and then click on “See Full Map”; it fails with the response “Windows cannot create the network map. Responses from other devices on the network are delayed or there is an incompatible router on the network”; no device map is shown. When I follow the link for more information, the only thing that stands out is “A device on the network, such as a hub or switch, is not working properly or is not compatible with the Link Layer Topology Discovery (LLTD) protocol, which Windows uses to create the map. To fix this problem, disable the device, turn it off, or remove it from your network”. All of my network devices showed up on the Network Map with the old E2000. This issue is the same on all of my computers, either wired or wireless. Any known solutions for this, or is it as Windows suggests; an incompatible Router????
Thanks in advance for any insight or solutions. With the issues I’m having with the EA4500 and the AE3000; they are both probably going back to Amazon.

thebluemamba_24; Thank you for your suggestion; I finally found time yesterday to perform an extensive evaluation before I return the Router. However, rather than trying to add devices manually, my rationale was if the EA4500 can’t process them correctly, automatically, it needs to be returned anyway, so I added devices normally letting the device an Router handle the process.
In thinking through this issue, all devices on our network are detected and identified by Windows Explorer on Windows 7 computers; except of course the Apple and Android devices (Apple TV, iPad, and Smartphone). So, I wondered if one of those three devices being added to the Router’s device list was somehow causing issues or interfering with Windows 7’s ability to generate a Network Map. Therefore, my approach was to turn off or disable all devices on our network, reset the Router to factory defaults, reestablish the Router to my custom Home Network configuration using a Windows 7 PC that has LAN and Wireless access to the Router, then add one device at a time and check with each addition to see if Windows 7 could still generate a Network Map.
With the Router reset and reestablishment complete; I began the process of adding one device at a time and checking to see if a Network Map was being generated. What I discovered was when a recent addition to the network, a Western Digital WD TV Live Streaming Media Player, was connected (wirelessly), Windows 7 could no longer generate the Network Map and the failure was consistent. The only way to get the Network Map to work again was to remove power from the WD TV Live, although it remained in the EA4500’s Device List; simply turning it off didn’t help. Since I’d originally witnessed the Windows 7 Network Map working with the Linksys E2000 Router that the EA4500 replaced, I decided to test the WD TV Live with that Router. It worked initially, but it failed consistently after the first success. Interestingly, the failure indication was a little different, but nevertheless generation of the Network Map failed.
I’ve tried changing a few settings on the EA4500 as well as the WD TV Live, but nothing helped. There was a recent firmware update to the WD TV Live, so I might try rolling back the firmware to see if it makes a difference.
The Network Map issue might very well be an issue with the WD TV Live, not the Router, but after reading many threads on this Community I have reservations that the problems I’m experiencing with the Smart interface lockup will be fixed. I suspect new emerging replacement products will be the focus and these older products will be abandoned and no more firmware fixes will be forthcoming and I don’t want to spend more money for a new product just to fix old problems and get something that works properly. The Network Map issue is troublesome, but the lockup of the Router’s “Linksys Smart Wi-Fi” interface is a serious matter to me. It appears that once it locks up, the only way to correct it is a power off restart; not practical if you’re traveling and trying to access settings remotely; the selling point for this feature.
Given the problems I’m experiencing with the EA4500 and AE3000, I guess I’ll return them. Too bad, because otherwise the EA4500 seems like it’s a good Router. I’ve been brand loyal since the Linksys WRT54G came out, but after reading this Community and with my personal experience with the EA4500 and AE3000, now I’ll probably give the NETGEAR N900 equivalents a try.
