    Hello

    Temporarily disable the security software on both computers and check if it makes a difference.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  • Unable to connect to the network "\\localmachine\sharedname" share

    I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone client, v5.0.0 build-470252, running on a 64-bit Windows 7 computer, try to import a Windows 2008 computer virtual (hosted by VMWare infrastructure) on my local machine.

    At the start of the converter, I have "connecting to a local server.

    Specification of the source system is OK, even if I don't know the certificate error.  The conversion wizard installs his agent and it connects OK.

    To the Destination System, I said:


    Type of destination: VMware Workstation or other virtual machines to VMware
    Product VMware: VMware Workstation 8.0.x
    Information on the virtual machine:
    Name: same as the source system, such as detected by the converter
    Location for the virtual machine: \\localmachine\sharedfoldername
    Username and password: my Windows 7 credentials, with full control over \\localmachine\sharedfoldername, the action and the underlying folder.

    "When the converter checks the destination settings, it is reported: unable to connect to the network"\\localmachine\sharedfoldername"share

    So far the measures of investigation:
    -Connection to the share through Windows Explorer works fine; It is possible to write to the share

    -J' tried specifying the share as '\\localhost\sharedfoldername', but get "the share specified network 'localhost\sharedfoldername' does not exist."  It was a bit of a long shot, I guess, but the form does not work in Windows Explorer.

    -Have you tried with the file and print sharing both power - on and off seemed worth a try after looking at other posts on this forum

    The help says 'If you are connected to a local Converter Standalone Server, providing a network path or a local path to the destination directory'.  I tried the local path "C:\Virtual Machines\sharedfoldername", but got the message "error: specified as a (local) drive Destination.»  "Please specify a UNC path such as: \\machine\sharename.

    Aid also States "You have not to provide user credentials if the location is on the local storage of the machine where Converter Standalone server running."  However, the next button is always disabled until credentials are provided.

    Can anyone help please?

    You must be able to access the \\localmachine\sharedname of the * SOURCE * machine. The job of conversions P2V of Windows is to install an agent on the source, then the agent connects to the target (this is why it must be on a network share) and transfers the data. You can browse \\localmachine\sharedname of the source (but not where the converter is installed)?

  • No network adapter driver is available after reinstalling Windows Vista installation disk... Unable to connect to the network

    No network adapter driver is available after reinstalling Windows Vista installation disk... Unable to connect to the network

    Hello

    Know what type of network card you have and download the drivers of its supplier.

    It doesn't matter what it is always a good idea before re-install/upgrade to log on to the computer support page, download independent drivers from there and put them on a flash drive.

  • Unable to connect to the network because the parameters of the computer do not match the requirements of the network.

    The main computer in my house is connected to the web via a modem to our ISP (Cox).  We use a Cisco's Linksys wireless router.  We have configured a new laptop to connect through the router yesterday.  Now my laptop, which had been the connection very well, can't access the network.  When I go in the "network and sharing Center" and pull up nearby wireless networks, our network shows is even more bars, just a red X.  Reads the error message "unable to connect to this network because the settings of that computer to match the parameters required network.»

    I don't know what has changed on our network, but I was unable to understand what these "required parameters" are, so I was unable to change the settings of my laptop to match the requirements.  Pls help.

    Hi Sharpdale,

    Step 1

    I first suggest you to perform network troubleshooting in Windows 7 and check if it finds problems, and if he is able to fix it.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/using-the-network-troubleshooter-in-Windows-7

    Step 2

    Use Windows to configure wireless settings and check if it helps to solve the problem.

    a. click on Start menu and select run

    b. type ncpa.cpl, and then click OK to open the menu of the network connections.

    c. Select your Wi - Fi connection service and choose the option change settings of this connection.

    d. go to the wireless tab and select (tick) labeled use Windows to configure my wireless network

    I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

  • XT720: Unable to connect to the network for upgrades

    Hello

    I recently had a new Motorola Milestone XT720. I tried to get the software updates using the "connection to phone" functionality system updates. If I connect my phone via the network or via WiFI, I get this message "the device is unable to connect to the server, please try again later"

    How can this problem be solved?

    How to get the system through files zip for Android updates?

    Kindly let me know.

    It is not uncommon to get this message when checking for OTA updates - update servers seem to be pretty random that they are actually on and accessible, or not.

    Your best bet for checking updates is to use the Motorola (MSU) software update. Search on a site of Motorola to find. It is a windows program that will check updates for your phone. More updates appear here before OTA (if they are already on OTA)

  • HP ENVY 15-k163cl: HP ENVY 15 updated to Windows 10, now unable to connect to the network

    I've recently updated to Windows 10 with my laptop (from Windows 8) and remember, Windows 8 was working fine but now that I've updated for Windows 10, I can't connect to my home network.

    When I turn on my laptop, it is not automatically connect to my network and when I try to connect from the network settings, I get an error "Could not connect to this network" and I have to wait at least 30 minutes before it automatically logs. After waiting that it works, but my laptop goes to sleep or goes inactive for awhile, it disconnects again and I have to wait

    I connected via hotspot and it worked fine, but all of my other computers laptops HP connects very well and they are 10 Windows as well. Only this laptop is upward, so I guess it's a problem with a new driver.

    Hello:

    The only suggestion I can offer would be to install the latest driver for the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 adapter - 802.11 and see if that helps any.

    The 2nd driver on the list is W10 x 64.

    · You did changes to the computer before the show?

    · What happens when you click the Yes button in the error message?

    · You are able to use the mouse on the system?

    I suggest you uninstall the software from programs and features and then try to open the properties of the mouse and check if you are able to open the mouse properties then I would you recommend to uninstall the drivers that are installed on the system in the Device Manager and then download the drivers from the link below and check if the problem is resolved.
