I have a drive mapped to the network, but (My Computer) icon is a folder. I get access denied when I click on the drive. But if I open windows Explorer, I can access the drive mapped without problems. Win Xp

Hello

Make sure that the mapped drive is configured to share and works on part.

Auto-mappage will not work if there is a problem with sharing.

Maybe this can help.

Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq#trusted

Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  • I get "access denied" when you try to add the component 4543BD

    I get "access denied" when you try to add the 4543BD to my diagram. This component has been added since a previous version. I use Multisim version 12.0.0 student edition.

    Hi Diarra,

    I checked my database and the 4543 isn't in the student edition. If you open a drawing that was created in a version more recent as the education edition and copied the part to your database, when you place this part, you will get the access denied message.

    Attached is a diagram with the part, you can open it and build you circuit around it.

  • F:\ is not accessible. Access denied when you click on the DVD drive.

    DVD players appear as 'Local disk' and if you click on it in Explorer, I get a message that says said: "F:\ is not accessible. Access is denied. "

    I can burn a movie for DVD (one internal, one external) players, but cannot access drives via Explorer.  the title of the CD or the DVD appears in the description of the letter, but I can't click on the drive.  If I run as administrator command prompt, I can implement the two disks and use DIR.  I can even run executables on the disks.  It almost seems that Explorer is no longer as administrator (even when I explicitly tell Explorer to run as administrator).

    This is not happening to me on a Machine running Windows 7. Has been registered as a user of the network. Logged in as a local administrator and the same problem. I solved the problem by removing the device in Device Manager and scan for hardware change. Windows 7 has re-installed the unit, and I was then able to access the drive.

  • Drive access denied when opening PDF files

    I noticed this on adobe Reader Versions XI and DC. What happens is whenever someone tries to open a pdf file that has name of file path is greater than 217 characters they will receive the error 'Access denied.' rename the file or move it to a path that has character < = 216 characters users can then open. If you try to save to the location it will appear to have saved, will throw any errors, does not save everything simply.

    I upgraded the drive to the new generation of DC. Tested on a new installation of Windows 8.1, I had at my disposal and tested it on all computers 15ish which give the same result. With different PDF documents are both on the internet and made by me using
    Acrobat.

    A few notes.

    This only happens on the network drives.

    I have access to all the locations of readers, that I tested.

    I had another user test this thus giving the same results.

    If I add my UNC path name of the file instead of drive letters, the amount is greater than 254.

    For example, if the path of the file is H:\My network Drive\Somearbitraryfolders\filename_Greaterthan217.pdf Its always less than the 254 that windows gives to us, but if I add my \\domain\public\drivename\Somearbitraryfolders\filename_Greaterthan217.pdf UNC path so this eqauls more than 254.

    So even if I can move files to this location by going through drive letters, stick them in, all that Jazz. As the reader is concerned it is the limit of windows, and may not be able to do something with it.

    If the Player looks at the UNC path instead of drive letters?

    If so is there a way for him to watch the drive letters?

    A quick edit. I just found this

    Known issues | Acrobat DC, CD player

    Problem: error access denied when you try to open the PDF file of the symlink via UNC path [3844582]

  • "Access denied" when opening files on my 1 TB HARD drive

    Well, then I'll start from the beginning.

    I have a Seagate 1 TB HDD, I use it for recording with my HDPVR and all my video editing effects and more. Well, on my old computer, Windows XP, I got some weird settings there that all my encrypted files. I tried to put it off, but he wouldn't.
    In any case, I got a new laptop, it's an ASUS with Windows 7 Home Premium. I'm trying to use some of the files that I used my old computer and put on it.
    Well, when I open pictures and videos it gives me an error message. To summarize the message because it is different for different types of files. Basically it's saying that I cannot access the files because I do not have the right permissions. With .txt files it won't let me save.
    I already did the thing where you go to properties, security, etc.
