View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to access and change files on my main pc, from my laptop which is in a different room, same with my wife's pc as well.Each time I go the network, I can see the computers, but each time I want to access files it comes up asking for password and user name.I have never set a user name or password and it is confusing the hell out of me to sort this out....
1.do I have to make sure the files are in a particular place, and saved in that place all the time?
2.can I not make "my documents" available to my wife and my laptop, and vice versa if they are swtiched on?
There must be a way to share our individual files and make them read write for ourselves?
Whenever I Click on the folder of next network computer on Network of my Computer then it says 'windows cannot access to saurav-pcphotoshop" both the computers are mine.. how can i share that file between these two computers?
View 1 Replies View RelatedPrinter plugged into Win7 box - how to print from remote XP machine? describes an original difficulty I had getting remote computers (laptops and desktops) to print to a USB printer connected to my Windows 7 box. Read far enough and you'll see that I solved that problem using Networking issue - Win7 printer, XP remote machines.Fast forward 13 or so months. Since that time I have replaced the printer, I've had a motherboard and processor issue with my box (since fixed), and no interruption of things working as they should. My printer - Canon ip4800 series - is USB hardwired to my Windows 7 computer, and the other home computers - two Windows 7 laptops, an XP box, and an XP netbook - can print to the printer, and view files on my Windows 7 machine, over our wireless home network. And that's been constant through the changes described.
Then yesterday, for no known reason, my daughter's Windows 7 laptop stopped being able to print. She'd send jobs to the correct printer, but they'd just queue up, with the queue visible from her machine, but not when I looked at the printer from my machine (that is looking at the print queue from her machine shows the jobs, but looking at it from mine shows no jobs).Nothing I did would result in stuff from her machine, from any application, to go to the printer.I finally deleted the printer from her machine, figuring I'd just add it back.I try adding a printer to the laptop, it doesn't find the printer on the list of available printers. When I try adding it by typing the name - \mywin7canon ip4800 series - that fails.When I look at "network" from her laptop, my computer shows up, but if I click on it, Windows says it can't connect.
When I type ping her_computer from a DOS box, it can't find it - but when I type ping any_other_computer it finds those.Her laptop can get on the internet from our home wireless network. All the other computers in the house - Windows 7 and XP - can access shared files on my PC, and more importantly, print across the network to my USB printer.Please, patiently and precisely, guide me through stuff to check on my PC and her laptop, to get this working again. I've been through the network and sharing center on my PC and the settings are correct.Again, as it is right now, my printer is not defined on her laptop.Final, cro-magnon- level question here: If I did a system restore on her laptop, back to a point when it had been able to print, might that fix things?
I have a brand new acer aspire notebook and I'm trying to connect to my airport extreme card built into my iMac desktop. The laptop sees the signal just fine, but it will not connect to the Internet and I get "limited access". What can I do to connect?
View 1 Replies View RelatedLast night I was on the internet at home absolutely fine and my laptop automatically downloaded an update, since then I have been unable to connect to my wi-fi. I deleted the updates and was still unable to connect, so I tried to used a system recovery restore point and every one I use starts but fails to complete.So, I did a factory reset after around 8 hours of trying to sort it out today and I STILL have the same problem. I can plug in the cable to connect and my housemate is having absolutely no issues connecting and neither is my phone so now I am at a total loss what I should do to resolve this. Prior to the factory reset I was able to connect to the wi-fi but it was stating no network access/limited access and now it simply won't connect to my internet at all. It finds my full strength signal but will not connect.My drivers for the Broadcom 4313 802.11b/g/n card are the most up to date and the laptop (HP G62) says it is working fine.
View 2 Replies View RelatedToday, I managed to redecorate my bedroom; where my computer sat on top of a shaky, wooden desk. That desk is now gone, caput, and replaced by a much bigger, sturdier and prettier glass replacement.Before I dissasembled the computer to re-decorate, I was able to browse the internet at ease. There were no problems at all...However, after the new desk was setup - and all wires replaced in their correct slots, I find that I am unable to connect to the internet, or even the house's network! For the past year, I have been wired to the router using a RTL8168C(P)/8111C(P) Family PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC. It was plugged into an extension cord, in my room, into the Ethernet port in the back of my computer. Downstairs, it's twin was situated no less than 2 feet away from the router - plugged into the first port.Now, when I boot up the computer, the network notification presents the following message: "Unidentified Network. No network access", and sometimes presents a yellow ! next to it. So, I am reduced to typing on my mother's laptop - which has no problems connecting to the network.I am able to use the ipconfig /release command, but unable to use the /renew - it hangs in the command prompt, then tells me that the DHCP server cannot be located. The IP, beforehand, was reverted to 169.254.223.117 - before all of this, I was 192.168.0.5?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 2 different laptops. both running Windows7 and connecting to the internet wirelessly. within a few days of each other they both began to display "Currently connected to: Unidentified network No network access" and they will not let me get on the internet. It is not my router becuase It shows the same thing no matter where I try to connect. I have tried my gym and a local restaurant that I have always had success connecting to before. Furthermore my WindowsXP desktop is directly connected and is connecting to the internet without any problems. My laptops are both running AVG for antivirus.

- I am using d-Lan (PowerLan) and have had no problems with it until today.
- My router, modem and the d-lan devices are functioning properly which I have tested multiple times so I'm sure the problem lies with my computer.
- I have tried Troubleshooting with no effect
- It isn't an IP conflict
- It isn't a 3rd party program (I started it in safe mode, same problem)
- Internet still works over my W-Lan but is incredibly slow and unstable
For boxing day, I bought myself a new Computer case, a Cooler Master HAF 932. After setting it up and booting my computer, without any problems, my Internet would not work.
I attached the Network & Sharing Centre screen to show you what it says. I've tried many things, switching cables, direct input from modem (I use a router), and all sorts of guides that have similar problems.
I've got a new PC running Windows 7 Home 64-bit. It works well and I'm very pleased.I've just tried importing my Outlook.pst file from my old computer (ran Win XP Pro) which died (partition got partially deleted). I've managed to access it using "Find and Mount" which will display the partition as a drive in My Computer and I can access all files bar those in "Documents & Settings" which it comes up saying I don't have permisson to access.I've tried to take ownership of these files, however I get an error saying "The media is write protected". Is there anything I can do to recover the files?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThe company that i work for has just bought five new HP Compaq 6000 Pro running Win7 64bit (one for each department i.e. Trade Finance, Operations, Compliance, Accounts & Credit). I created standard user account for each member of the respective departments as well as admin account for myself. I setup a workgroup to connect all PCs to share a printer that is connected directly to one of the PC (Credit dept).
Here's the problem:
Three of the PCs (Trade Finance, Operations & Compliance) can access Credit PC and vice versa without any problem. However, Accounts PC will get an error message: "Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer" everytime trying to access Credit PC when login as standard user. But when I login as admin, I don't get any error whatsoever. Same thing happen when I login from Credit PC and access Accounts PC. No error.
I have disabled the firewall for both Accounts & Credit PCs and even changed all user accounts for Accounts PC to admin but still keep geeting the same error message.
I have Windows 7 Pro 64 and I am trying to access an XP machine that is on the wireless network and when I click on that machine's name, I get a Windows Security box asking "Enter Network Password" and it has fields for User name and Password.
I've never seen this box before and I don't remember ever setting a password for the XP machine. I can access my Windows 7 laptop successfully. How can I access the XP machine?
I set up a new wireless connection and its done perfectly but I can't access from other device ( Ipod touch) the access type: no network access whereas the assess type it must be internet who do I solve this problem.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have this machine and an XP machine on my network. The XP machine has the link layer hotfix installed for SP3. Both machines are fully updated.
Now I had a couple of hard drives shared and the XP machine had access to them without any issues at all. I needed more space on the music drive which was an external USB drive. I bought a Western Digital 500Gb internal sata drive and installed it. I moved the music to the new drive and shared the drive the same as the other drives were shared.
This is where it gets weird. The new drive shows up as a network location on the XP machine however it cannot be accessed. I get an error saying I need to make sure I have proper privileges. I do have them because the drive has full access for everyone assigned to it in permissions. The XP machine can still access the other drive I have shared with all my videos on it. So the problem is only with the new drive and all of the settings check out.
Anyone else have this kind of problem?
I have two internet connections, BSNL Broadband and Reliance Netconnect. I have been using both connections since last year and I have never faced this problem of "Unidentified network" and "No network connection". It was only in June this year that I began facing this problem. When my BSNL is connected, my PC does not detect it yet I can access internet. The networking icon in the task bar shows a Yellow Caution sign. When I use Reliance Netconnect, I can access internet but now, the yellow caution does not even appear, in fact there is a red cross. I have tried numerous trouble shooting steps like the cmd commands, disabling and enabling network adapters, etc but to no avail. However, when I put this in cmd "netsh winsock reset catalog", Reliance suddenly showed as active when I rebooted my PC. The Origin service of Electronic Arts happily went online. Then I disconnected Reliance and tried BSNL but no luck there. I reverted to Reliance and again the same problem. I repeated the steps again but still the same problem.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHave 2 nics, 1 for INTERNET and 1 for intranet. Internet works fine until I set up #2 with default gateway then I get a error message when leaving properties box. something about redundant default gateways. If I leave this in place #1 network stops working. I have tried to just setting #2 to auto both ip and gateway. I can't even ping the server. It doesn't leave the computer.
I thought it was the nic card because i riped it out of the old computer and the driver wouldn't work for the Windows 7. So I bought a new one that was compatible with Windows 7. Nothing has worked. The problem is that this is not my computer it's my wifes, and she's not a happy camper. This set-up worked on the XP that was taken out of service and replaced with the Windows 7.
I have very common problem (as i see on the forums) but I still haven't found the solution.. I have 2 computers ... the old one (with win XP installed) and brand new one (with win 7 x64 ultimate inastalled). The problem is ... on the old computer internet works fine, but on the new one i Just can't get it work. It allways says "No network access".
I have no router ... computer is wired directly to my cable modem. I tried nearly everything ... but still no succses Network card (realtek ) is integrated to my motherboard and have installed the latest driver. Here are some snapshots...
I can snapshot&attach any other window, just tell me wich one.
Currently I have an internal network (no internet access), with a few XP workstations conencted via a hub, working fine. When I added a Win 7 computer, it cannot connect to the network. It says "unidentified network" and when I run troubleshooter, result is "does not have a valid IP configuration." Note that all the XP computers are using the NetBIOS protocol; TCP/IP is not selected.

She also didn't make any recovery disks. The problem is now the laptop keeps asking for a network user name/Password when she tries to access the internet. I have researched this issue but to no avail. I am curious as to how to resolve this issue. I feel the only way may be to reset the wireless router back to factory settings and start again.

Asus machine, wired connection less than a year old. Big hard drive 4gb ram, AMD cpu. We DON"T get the Unidentified Network problem.
So I am having a strange problem with a PC. The hardware seems to be working. The same problem happens on all interfaces (wired and wireless connections). I cannot get access to the network period, even though the computer has a valid IP configuration via DHCP.The strange thing is that Windows 7 says that it has internet access up until the point I try to access the network or internet with any application. IE causes a loss in connection, Firefox, Windows Updates, etc.So I have tried this so far at the command prompt to no avail.netsh int ip resetandnetsh winsock resetWhat do you all think? I am thinking that a reinstall of Windows is needed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just moved from Beta to RC and while it looked like everything is OK, I'm having this strange problem where my Weatherbug and XM gadgets will not work UNLESS I connect to a VPN. I have disabled the firewall, purged the DNS cache, disabled / re-enabled the NICs, but the problem remains. I have tried this on multiple networks on both my Ethernet and wireless connections (Dell D630 notebook) and get the same result. Any ideas? I'm not even sure where to start looking!
One more thing: I did perform an upgrade install from Beta x64 to RC x64 instead of the "demanded" clean install.
I am having an apparently common problem: my Windows 7 machine can access my XP/SP3 laptop just fine but though the XP can see the Windows 7, it can't access it at all. What I get is...[Windows 7 machine] is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource... yada yada yada.
I've looked up the topic and this phrase and find lots of answers, some ridiculously complex (registry hacks?), most of them contradicting each other. Nothing I've found offers a step-by-step how-to.
I'm one of those who skipped Vista, so I'm not familiar with all the new security. When my home network was all XP, I just connected a computer to the workgroup, gave folder permissions, and go. (I don't use passwords.)
So how do I do it now?
There are/will be a lot of us moving to 7 straight from XP, and we need some sort of "you used to do this, now you must do this" type of guide.
I've set up the client to connect to the PPTP VPN at my workplace. It connects, but I can't access any computers on the network through explorer or remote desktop, by IP address or by name. Also, the internet will not connect after connecting to the VPN [we have a proxy, and the browser won't connect to it].
On the VPN status, the IPv4 Connectivity is listed as Internet
the IPv6 is listed as No Network Access.
I can, in a command prompt, ping network computers by name or IP. ipconfig /all gives, from what I can see, identical results to a Vista computer that connects properly.
This occurs from my house [set up as a Home network] and from public networks. The VPN is set up as a Work network. I've tried changing these and it doesn't seem to help. I've also tried disabling Windows firewall.
I have a linux samba share setup that I use for my file server. It's setup for guest access.
Recently when I tried accessing the server, it asked me for a username and password, which it shouldn't. So I typed in guest, didn't work, I typed in the root account, didn't work.
My roommate can still access the server just fine. I checked all the permissions on the linux box, and it has to be an issue with my computer. I had my roommate setup a shared folder on his computer, and I couldn't access it either.
I'm not sure what happened to cause this... one day it worked, the next day it didn't. I tried a system restore thinking maybe some update caused an issue, but that didn't do anything. I've checked various registry keys, made sure the proper services are running. I'm lost as to what could be causing this...
im getting this error im loged in my internet now but on IPV6 network settings it says ipv6 no network access can you help me .also troubleshoot it and it says "your computer does not meet the requirements for direct acess why also when im using internet the conection wents off sometime
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a major problem. My Windows 7 RC Build 7100 can't suddenly connect to my linux server via Samba at all. It's been running for month doing just fine.
It's a wired connection. I can logon via SSH, browse public web folders, and ping host <-> client, both IP address and netbios name. However Samba is dead silent when trying to map a share.
I have checked the LAN configuration + Local Security Policy. Turning off the Windows firewall doesn't do a thing either.
When checking network, "net view 192.168.0.2", it returns "System error 53 has occurred. The network path was not found."
Googling the above message mentions a "DNS problem", but I don't have a clue what to do next.
