XP Filesharing Working but Vista is not!:  Leopard server

Can someone post easy direct instructions on how to connect to shared volumes using vista.
SMB is on.
With XP I find the server in the work group double click it and put the username and password and booooomm!!!! I'm in and working.
With Vista I follow the same procedure, and booooommm!!! it rejects it and changes the username to relect the name of the machine\username.
Can someone lend me a hand. I'm a new Leopard Server Admin, and I really need my staff to embrance this wonderful technology!!
Thanks

I haven't tried with Vista yet, but I hoped that it would work just as well! :O
Since client_machine\username won't work (and shouldn't), have you tried domain\username instead of just username? Are the users local to the server or OD/AD users?

  • Does Indesign CSS work on VISTA or not?

    Does Indesign CSS work on VISTA or not?

    By CSS, you mean CC? or CS6? or CS5.5?
    The Indesign CC Tech Specs say only Windows 7 and Windows 8.
    http://www.adobe.com/products/indesign/tech-specs.html
    Indesign CS6 was not supported in Vista either (CS5.5 and earlier were OK)

    It may still be made to work on Vista but it's untested by Adobe and not a supported configuration.

  • Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    Macbook pro to HDTV, video is working but audio is not working, how to make audio work as well

    If you use an HDMI cable, the audiostream will be integrated, so there will be sound when using an HDMI cable!
    Not necessarily.  That only works as stated if you have one of the most recent MBP's that has a built-in HDMI port.
    If the MBP only has a Thunderbolt or miniDisplayPort, you need an appropriate adapter cable and even if you use an HDMI adapter or cable to connect to your HDTV there is no guarantee it will carry audio.  You have to determine if your specific MBP model supports audio out through its miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output, and whether the adapter does likewise.

    Well, everything that you have bought with her Apple ID prior to getting your own Apple ID is forever hers. Apple will not transfer content from one ID to another. But in the case of the Mac, contact iTunes Customer Service and request that they send your issue to the Account Security Team and ask that the Mac be released form your mother's account so you may register it with your account. Then you can accept the iLife apps into your account for any future updates.

    my iphone 4s is working but I can not see the screen. What is going on?

    Possibly backlight died, if you look at it closely in bright light can you see a "Shadow" of the screen image?
    First, back up your phone

    Then, restore the OS from scratch

    Use a alias, but you might have to use a zip code that matches the location used.
    Also if you click the right button there is a way to bypass the registration, like register later or something, Apple has it hidden. Also to bypass the internet connection to send the registration off.
    Never place your name on a Mac or PC, it's spread throughout the entire machine, in emails, on the network in plain sight etc.

  • Im having a problem with my mic on my ipod 5th gen it works but it douse not pick up any sound unless i  talk right next to the mic. how can i fix this

    im having a problem with my mic on my ipod 5th gen it works but it douse not pick up any sound  unless I  talk right next to the mic but it sounds low  . how can i fix this

    - Make sure the mic hole is clear and unobstructed. It is the little hole on the back by the camera lens(if has back camera). For the 16 GB one without the back camera the mic hole is on the top edge near the center.
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I bought a mac air yesterday and i was trying to download maverick but i could not do it, i try to download the old version of numbers because i needed for work, but i could not neither, but now when i check to download numbers is asking for to pay?

    i bought a mac air yesterday and i was trying to download maverick but i could not do it, i try to download the old version of numbers because i needed for work, but i could not neither, but now when i check to download numbers is asking for to pay?

    You are mixing different issues. I will address Numbers.
    Has Numbers ever been installed on this new Mac? Did you have the Mac App Store version of Numbers or did you have the DVD version of Numbers?
    You should be able to redownload a previous purchase of the Mac App Store version of Numbers from the Purchases pane after signing into your account.
    If you had the DVD version, then you will need to install that from the DVD media.

  • Why are my tags not syncing for a shared email account? IE One person tags an email as "Work" but it does not show on other users Thunderbird.

    Subject says it all for the most part.
    A shared email account we'll call "[email protected]" is not syncing tags across other end users Thunderbird. User A will tag an email as Work but it will not sync/show on anyone else's application. I've read that Thunderbird stores tags locally now? Is there a way to sync them up to our IMAP server? Or would we have to revert to a previous version of Thunderbird (if so which)?
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    the issue is probably that the server does not support tags..... Thunderbird stores them locally, but syncs them were the server supports it.

  • Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow.  Any help anywhere?

    Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow.  Any help anywhere?

    wqn02h, first thing I would do is use Disk utility to repair permissions. Once this is done. Make sure you have the latest versions of the software you use. Also, check the manufacter of your printer/scanner for updated software. If they don't have updated software there are 3rd party alternatives that will work.

  • I have low battery on my ipad and it still works but it is not fully charging what can i do

    i have a low battery on my ipad it still works but it is not fully charged what can i do to fully charge it

    Clean the charging port.
    Charge using the supplied wall charger, not your computer.
    Try another charger and/or cable.
    If none of these work, you have a hardware problem.
