Windows 7 Cannot see All folders in shared directory

Hi all,
Here's a real stumper of a question. I have two folks connecting to our XServe G5 server using Windows 7 Home Premium via Boot Camp. Mapping to the network drive via IP address allows the two users to connect to the shares, no problem. . .or so it would seem.
For whatever, unintelligible reason, certain folders in the directory are non-viewable, and inaccessible. For example, this is what one of our users running on a Mac will see:
Folder 2003
Folder 2004
Folder 2005
Folder 2006
Folder 2007
Folder 2008
Folder 2009
The Mac users use the EXACT same logon credentials as the Boot Camp Windows 7 Users. However, when looking at the same folder list for the Windows 7 users:
Folder 2003
Folder 2004
Folder 2005
Folder 2006
Folder 2008
Folder 2009
I have never come across anything quite like this. As I said, our Mac and PC users utilize the EXACT same credentials to access this shared folder on our XServe G5, yet for some reason, one or two folders are completely inaccessible on the Windows side. I've tried manually entering the directory, and I receive a "folder not found" error. Which is ridiculous, because it's there.
Any idea what I should look at to get a clearer idea?

This is off topic here, Gerchak, but I couldn't think of another way of responding to an older thread of yours that was archived: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11164152#11164152
You can reduce your wired memory usage by 256MB by disabling the IntelHD graphics, which uses shared memory for its VRAM. My testing has shown that disabling that (and thus leaving the GT 330M active all the time) really doesn't impact battery performance that much. I'd rather have the RAM, personally.
Here's what I did on my 2010 17" to disable the built-in Intel HD graphics:
% cd /System/Library/Extensions
% ls -l AppleIntelHD* # this should show you the extensions for the HD chip
% sudo mkdir AppleIntelHD-disabled
% sudo mv AppleIntelHDGraphics* AppleIntelHD-disabled
Wait about two minutes for kextcache to run and update your extensions cache, and then reboot. Your wired RAM should have fallen by 256MB.

  • Cannot see all folders on remote Mac, even when "Connect As" admin user

    Shouldn't an "admin user" be able to see all folders, including Desktop, Documents, etc. of other users? I'd like to be able to see all folders.
    Thanks

    I don't think so.
    Try this.
    On your Mac, in Finder, click on the top item in Sidebar, Macintosh HD
    Now open Users
    Now click on a user that is not you.
    If your system is like mine, you will see red dots on most of the folders, meaning you do not have access to them.
    If you can't do it locally, then it's probably not possible to do it remotely.
    An administrator account does not have universal privileges.

  • When I go into my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages.  26 may show on the screen but it says I have 32.  However, at the bottom right it appears as if all the messages are showing and the arrow to get more is not highlighted.

    When I go to my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages.  It says there are 34 but I can only see 26.   However, at the bottom right  the arrows to go to the next screen are not highlighted?  I also cannot scroll any further down.  Does anyone know how to scroll down to see all of my messages?  I use Travel-net Communications as my email provider (Ottawa, On, Canada).

    hey ,
    if it is showing you 34 mails them it is correct. when you see your mail. apple has a smart way of arranging your mail.suppose you recieve 4 mails from one email id it will show you under one highlighted mail. so when you open a mail from anyone trying scrolling it down and you will find your missing mails.

  • My picture files open up off center so I cannot see all of the bottom part of the picture.

    Hi,
    My picture files open up off center so I cannot see all of the bottom part of the picture. The ruler across the top read "0" to 13.5". Down the left side of the picture the ruler reads 3", 2",1", 0, 1", 2",3" etc. This leaves a three inch empty space at the top of my viewing area and I lose three inches of the bottom of my picture. I cannot figure out how to adjust this. I have tried the screen modes  and they do not fix my problem.  What can I do to solve this problem?

    Please provide sensible details about your platform, exact version of your OS, exact version of Photoshop, complete details baout your setup, hardware details, monitor resolution, etc.

  • I cannot see my family's shared content

    I have done everything apple instructed me to do about setting up family sharing. Unfortunately, I still cannot see my family's shared content under purchases. I could not even see their names. However, on their devices, they can see me and they can see my purchases.

    Hello Anna,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    This article would be the first one I would check out for problems seeing your family's shared content.

    I'm animating a sequence and would like to activate the span based selection but I cannot see all the options in the preferences menu.
    How can I get to see all the options in the preferences menu?

    Hi Brice,
    Which version of DW are you using? Which OS? Have you experienced this issue before or is this your first encounter?
    As  a first step, I suggest you try recreating Preferences (Re-create preferences) and see if that helps.

    Maybe
    On the Win7 machine,
    1. Ignore everything to do with Homegroup.
    2. Go > Computer > Users > User; right click on User and chose Share with > Specific people; and Set to share with a specific individual or Everyone—both with Read/Write permission.
    3. Go Control Panel > Network and Sharing Options > Advanced sharing Settings, and Turn on network discovery, Turn on file and printer sharing, Turn off public folder sharing , and Turn off password protected sharing (unless sharing won’t occur without turning it on).
    4. Restart (probably not necessary, but I’d do it).
    On the Sno machine,
    1. Go System Preferences > Sharing > Check File sharing > Go Options > Enable SMB sharing.
    2. Go System Preferences > Network > Select Airport or Ethernet depending on what you are going to be using. I am assuming you will be using wireless below. Let me know if not true.
    3. Having selected Airport, select ask to join new networks and show Airport status in menu bar.
    4. Click advanced > click remember networks this computer has joined > Click Wins > Enter the ip address of your Win7 machine in the WINS server box > Enter the Win7's workgroup name in the workbook box unless it already is there (look in the drop down menu too). In all likelihood the name is workgroup, but check on the Win7 machine.
    5. Restart (probably not necessary, but I’d do it).
    Try to connect to your Win7. Use Go menu > Connect to server. In trying to connect, type smb://ipaddress (of the Win7 machine). If, for some reason, you are asked to, input a user name and password, then use you user name and password for the Win7. Don't save anything to Keychain now and actually never for making network connections.

  • Cannot see business system in integration directory.

    Hi all,
    I am trying to configure a simple file to idoc scenario (from the starter pack) . I have created a third party technical system and assigned it to a business system.
    I have configured the scenario as given in the exercise scenario in the integration repository.
    In the Integration directory, i create a new configuration scenario . Now i go into the service without party , and try to assign a business system . However, here , in the list of business systems available from the SLD, i cannot see my business system . Could anybody help me find out why this is happening ?
    p.s. while creating the technical system , i have given 'localhost' as host, since i didnt know what to give here and thats what most other technical systems in the SLD contained. could this be the problem ?
    Thanks,

  • Cannot see more than one shared virtual disk at a time

    I have multiple virtual disks configured and as I add them to the specific virtual machine im using it modifies the vm.cfg as follows:
    disk = ['file:/OVS/running_pool/110_openfiler/System.img,hda,w',
    ',hdc:cdrom,r',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-ocs-u01.img,hdd,w!',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-ocs-u02.img,hde,w!',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-SAN-test.img,hdf,w!',
    when the machine boots up the contents of /dev only contains the shared drive hdd, thus I cannot see hde or hdf.
    One thing I tried was to edit the vm.cfg after adding the shared drives to the machine to mimic:
    disk = ['file:/OVS/running_pool/110_openfiler/System.img,hda,w',
    ',hdc:cdrom,r',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-ocs-u01.img,sda,w!',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-ocs-u02.img,sdb,w!',
    'file:/OVS/sharedDisk/openfiler-SAN-test.img,sdc,w!',
    This allows me to see all three drives when I issue fdisk -l

    but then my question becomes... could this cause any potential problems?

    I found that there are 4 IDE disks and 7 SCSI disks at most for HVM guest on Oracle VM 2.1 version. For IDE disks, The available disknames are from hda to hdd; and for SCSI disks, are from sda to sdg. you may make test about it. :)

  • When browsing documente library contents from client application, cannot see all files

    We are currently running SharePoint 2010 Enterprise in a small environment. On one of my sites, I have a document library with various documents uploaded (docx, xlsx, pdf). I am unable to see all the documents when browsing the library from Word/Excel/Adobe
    Acrobat. For example:
    - At the root level of the library, I have 5 folders
    - In Folder 1, I have 10 PDF files
    - If I go into Adobe Acrobat 11, for example, and paste the address of my site in, I can see the library and I can click on it and see the 5 folders.  If I click on Folder 1, there are no PDFs listed.  Even changing File Type to "All Files"
    still returns 0 results
    Things I have tested:
    If I view the library in the browser, I can see the 10 PDFs in Folder 1.  They are not checked out and they are visible to everyone
    If I click Library>Open w/ Explorer, I can see all 10 PDFs in Folder 1
    If I try using other client applications (Word, Excel, etc..), I cannot see any files in Folder 1, even when I change the File Type to "All Files"
    If I click in some of the other Folders in the same library from within a client application, sometimes I can see the files but most times I cannot
    What could be causing this?  I do not see any errors in any of the event logs.

    Hi Sephiroth,
    I think my observation is when you browse from word/Excel/Adobe it is taking your local system credentials and so  not showing files when you access.
    local system account means the account which you used to login to the system.
    For example,you logged into the system as contosomo\xyz and you are trying to connect to the site using Contosomo\setup account,what my point is though you logged in to the site using the setup account site is taking your xyz account credentials and so it
    not showing any files as xyz obviously will not have access.
    To confirm this, you can try by giving atleast read access to the local system account (in this case xyz) to the library and then test again whether you are able to see the files or not.
    Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem.
