Windows shares not displaying in Sidebar

Hi
I have a iMac and a Windows Vista Laptop with File sharing enabled , The Windows Laptop can see the iMac in the Network folder and can copy and access files etc
The Windows share does not show up in the Finder Sidebar, although if i connect to server and enter the IP address of the Windows Laptop it shows up in the Sidebar with the IP address as the heading , I can then mount and access shared folders on the PC
Does anyone know how i can make the Windows share appear automatically in the Sidebar. Tech support have not been able to help yet

Perhaps [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8772053] or [this thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8436383] will assist. Seem to be similar. Otherwise search for windows vista share sidebar and you'll find lots of hits.
Have you tried to turn off the firewall and see if it works (not ideal of course).

  • Windows could not display the images available for installation

  • Photoshop window does not display unless connected to external monitor

    I use a MBP connected it to an Apple Cinema Display used as an external monitor (not a dual display) when in my studio.
    When I use Adobe Photoshop CS 5 without the monitor the image window does not display on the MBP. If I plug the external monitor in, the window is displayed correctly on the MBP. Photoshop is opening and "displaying" the image window offscreen. Nothing gets it back onscreen, except plugging in the external monitor.
    I often use Photoshop away from my studio so this is a big problem. PShop is essentially unusable unless connected to an external monitor.
    Is this a known issue?
    Any workarounds?
    Any ideas?
    There is a previous discussion on this topic from January 2012, but it remains open and unanswered. Hoping there are some new ideas. Thanks for the help.

    The MacOS still thinks the second display is available and valid -- so Photoshop puts the documents on the last used display and the OS doesn't give any errors.
    Once the OS notices the change in display configuration, Photoshop should go back to the main display and force images and dialogs back to the main display.
    Applications rely on the OS for the display configuration, and sometimes the OS gets confused or holds onto outdated configurations a bit too long...

  • Main Viewer Window does not display correctly

  • QuickWatch windows does not display Value and Type.

    The quick watch window is only displaying Name (screenshot below). It is not displaying Type

    Hi ranjanks,
    Could you share us a sample? So we could debug the same app in our side, please also tell us the VS version in your side.
    For example, just a simple console app with a variable "int i", I could get it in my VS2013 version like the following screen shot. So if you debug a simple sample as mine, how about the result? If it works well, I doubt that it would be related
    to the specific variable of your app.
    Best Regards,
    Jack

  • Home window does not display properly

    When I first sign on to Firefox, the home window (Google) is displayed too far to the right of the screen to use. The only fix I have found for this is to slightly re-align the screen by moving the tab in the bottom right corner. This alignment problem is not critical, but is irritating since the screen must be re-aligned for each signon.

    Please create a screenshot of the problem you're seeing by following the guide mentioned at [[How do I create a screenshot of my problem?]].
    Once you've done this, attach the saved screenshot file to your forum post by clicking the '''Browse...''' button below the ''Post your reply'' box. This will help us to visualize the problem.
    Make sure you didn't Zoom the webpages.

  • Windows Shares Not Showing Up In Finder (Master Browser Problem)

    Hi, on leopard I had no problems with Windows shares showing up in finder. However, having upgraded to Snow Leopard, I've now lost that ability.
    Before I had my Leopard computer set as the master browser. I did this by specifying domain master = yes and preferred master = yes in my smb.conf. However despite importing these settings into Snow Leopard's smb.conf, it is not acting as a master browser.
    When I run the command "nmblookup -M -- -" which in Leopard returned my Mac as the master browser, now it says "failed to find name _MSBROWSE_#01".
    I'm sure this is why the Windows PC is not showing up in finder, but I don't know why the smb-conf isn't taking effect in Snow Leopard, and setting it as the master browser?
    Also, I can use Go -> Connect to access my Windows shares, and Mac shares show up in Vista okay.
    Any help appreciated.

    Problem fixed upon updating to 10.6.2.

  • Windows Share not available since update

    Hello everyone,
    My Windows Share TC was working fine still last week and I was able to connect from my Work (on Linux) to my TC and any plugged USB HDD without any problem, quite efficiently actually.
    And of course, since this **** update on firmware + airport utility, for some reason this has become impossible.
    When I add the server on Linux, the prompt for pass/user/etc shows up right away, telling me my TC doesn't block anything and is online. But whether I use the Guest (so blank) login, or the disk password I decided before, neither work. It tries to connect without success for a minute or so and prompt an error...
    The thing is, my DNS is good, and traffic isn't blocked. I checked the config of my TC and even restarted it since yesterday, and nothing was change compare to before, so I don't know what's the problem.
    Any idea, anyone else with same issue ?

    Seriously, I tried reverting to 7.3, without any success.
    I don't understand, everything is working fine aside of the Windows Share. When I try to connect it prompts for ling information, so it's responding correctly, but just misses the connection after that. It doesn't even reject my login information. It just looks for, and times out...
    Anyone else has the same issue ?

  • AFP shares not showing in Sidebar

    I am having problems getting afp shares to show in the Shared section of the Sidebar. The Sidebar is showing two of the SMB shares but nothing else. All of the AFP shares show on the other two Leopard computers. I have tried the following:
    1. Turned Bonjour computers on and off in Finder Preferences.
    2. Use DiscWarrior to clean the disc and have repaired permissions several times.
    3. Tried deleting the com.apple.network.identification.pist file.
    Any other ideas?
    Thanks for any help.
    Peter

    I have this problem from time to time. To get them to show, in the Finder I go to Go > Connect to Server > then click on Browse. The will not show them in the left sidebar, but will show under the Network. I know it does not solve the problem. I'd like to know a fix as well.

  • Siri window does not display and app was destroyed with latest 6.1 update

    This happened right after the last update to 6.1. Press the button and hold it. You get a beep but no SIRI window. Otherwise it will do as you tell it to.
    There are numerous other bugs. Go into Purchased apps. Cannot select an app on the second row left, second one down from the top. eith the one above it displays or the one below it.
    The update also destroyed an expense tracking app, Pocket expense which had a substantial amount of data in it. Press on the app icon and it flasehes and does not run.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"
    If neither of these work you may have to restore your ipad via iTunes on your computer.

  • Smb share not displaying all files in finder

    When accessing a non-windows (IBM iseries) smb share, I will only see 30 objects. Windows PCs will see all of the available objects.
    Is there a solution for this problem?

    Hi,
    Me too, I am encountering the same problem, not with Windows XP but with a virtual Windows NT machine.
    I am connecting to an SMB share on a Unix server running under Sun Solaris (vers. 8) on which the Windows NT machine is emulated by running PC Netlink (version 2.0 Rev=rr24).
    Viewing share folders by clicking them via Finder, I see only a maximum of 30 entries (folders and/or files) in each sub folder, though many of them contain dozens or hundreds of objects.
    When I view those folders via the command line in the Terminal, I see even less: only 14 objects appear. For each sorting mode the same 14 objects are visible.
    When I copy a file from my local harddisk into such a folder, it disappears immediately after copying. When I copy the same file a second time into the same folder, a message pops up rejecting the copying because another file with that name already exists. Together with that message the "hidden" first copy now appears in the finder window, only to disappear again when the warning message is clicked away.
    I do see all objects when I mount the shares on a PC or on my old PB G3, running Classic MacOS 9.2.2. And I did see all objects before I migrated from MacOS X 10.3.9 to MacOS X 10.4.10.
    The names of the "hidden" objects are all OK (neither beginning nor ending with a dot, etc.).
    I am curious if somebody found a solution for the prob, or what workaround you are using.
    Thank you
    Fred
