#Smbup preparing to installing hanging mac

Simple answer is NO… the NFS workround supplied by WD will only share one folder… and it won’t see mac aliases either so you can’t link multiple folders by putting an alias in your movies folder.(bummer for me as I have 7terabytes on my mac of movies and tvshows).

If you don’t need subtitles or any other specific reason to access your Mac through network share, just install Plex Media Server on your and run everything through DLNA, saving yourself from all this bull**bleep** with Linux shares and export files (shudder). Posting this as a thank you for all people who guided me today.īy the way, I needed network share access only because of SRT support, which PLEX media server does not provide.

I did not figure out where to enter user name and password for Linux share. Two main things - first, NFS Enabler which does this exports thing right, second - add everyone to shared folder users, otherwise the folder will come up empty - it will say you have no access. I am not saying this is universal - this is what worked for me. It will scan the network and your MAC’s IP will appear. On WD Live TV: go to Files -> Content Sources->Network Shares->Linux Shares. Click on the lock, enter your password, add Everyone. VERY IMPORTANT: on your mac, go to finder, select the folder you want to share (in my case Movies), right click, Get Info, check that folder is Shared tick box is on, and most importantly, add Everyone to shared user list. On MAC: Forget creating your own exports file, did not work for me, never got the path right.

On WD: Enable Linux Shares from Setup menu of your WD TV Live. If those things don’t work, and you are entering the correct username and password in the right place, sorry, I don’t know what the problem might be.įinal solution to access iMac (Mountain Lion) shared drive through WD Live TV “Files”.Īfter reading all those posts and struggling with SMB, SMBup and so on (does not work, donated 1USD regardless), I came to a final solution which worked. You could try clearing the share credentials in the Setup menu, or connect to a local storage drive first and then change content source. If you completely shut it down (hold power button several seconds) and turn it back on again, it might work. Now I’m guessing it is just the WD being wonky as it often is.

So now, if the WD is seeing the Mac when you select Linux Shares under Content Source (I don’t think Windows Shares will work, the WD can see the computer but can’t communicate with it that way), the mac end should be done.

And since you’re complaining about it being painful, hopefully you will permit me to point out that we would have gotten here more directly if you’d given the information I asked for from the start, and if you’d actually tried the stuff before you gave a blanket answer that you’d done everything. If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them.This should be pretty much solved. I have searched the internet and tried every solution offered. I think the solution to this will also fix my original problem to my program Select New Connection, Pick Microsoft Access Data File, Pick ContinueĮnter Database File Name (A good MS Access (2010) database)Ī Window 'Windows Installer' pops up saying 'Preparing to Install.'

I have since tried to create a new application with vb using an Access DB and they get hung up. I have tried to clear the exception, then the system gets hung up with a 'preparing to install'. Debugging it now fails with a 'LoaderLock' error.
