• networking with a Sprint aircard card - how can I share internet connection from my card Sprint air with other computers?

  I use a Sprint air card for my internet connection.  How can I make my connection mobile connect with my connection to the LAN ethernet so that all computers can go online.  There are two (mobile and local) connections in network and sharing Center.

  1 right click on the connection.
  2. click on Properties .
  3. click on sharing .
  4. put a check mark in the Internet connection sharing check box.

  Then connect all computers to a network switch or router Ethernet connections.  If connect you to a router, disable the DHCP server in the router's built-in.

• How to use an external hard drive to share files with other computers

  I have a HP Personal Media Drive that is currently used to share files with another computer. However, it is very old and I want to continue the sharing of files. Can I use an external hard drive? and if yes, how I have set up?

  I have an external hard drive, Toshiba-1 t. It is connected with a USB cable. My computer has wireless access, and the other computer does not work. The internet allows us to connect.

  Suppose that your external drive to your is connected to PC 1. When you open Windows Explorer on PC1 then this disk will appear as if it was a local, integrated drive. To make it accessible to PC 2, you need to "share". When you type this phrase in a Google search box then you will get many excellent recipes step by step on how to do this:

• copy of the files on a DVD and share it with other computers

  I "sent" file of my blank DVD. I chose "mastered" to achieve a closed DVD. I then answer 'Yes' to create another disk? Which failed. I tried to put my first drive back in test it. Instead of going on the DVD, he went to a folder on my C: drive and gave a message of "ready to burn files to disc" message. I opened the DVD in Windows Explorer, and of course, he directed me to a folder on my C: drive. ALL I WANT TO DO IS COPY FILES TO A DVD. I have NOTHING else to this function in Windows. I want to be able to write files to a disc and then PLAY these files successfully, later.

  PC (Win 7) have a/c admin and need p/w for logon, user does not bother me to share the printer, but do not want to release p/w.
  My question, if the user has already shared the printer to the public and add "everyone" should I p/o to use the printer or other problems not able to use the printer.
  Thanks in advance

  Hi Alan,

  Protected by password sharing is a more secure method of sharing files and folders on a network, and it is enabled by default. With share protected by active password, people on your network cannot access shared folders and printers on other computers, including public folders, unless they have a user name and password on the computer on which the printer or files shared. They will be asked to type a user name and password to access the printer or shared folders.

  I suggest you to return the item and check if it helps.

• Network management problem, computer laptop Windows 7 will not find other computers on any network, however all other computers on the network can access Windows 7 laptop.

  Basically, the issue I'm having is that my laptop does not connect to any other computer to access the actions or other files.  Other computers on the network can access my computer laptop shares and files without any problems.  Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64.

  What I tried:

  restarted
  uninstalling and reinstalling the files and printers, sharing maps and restart after completion
  all disabled firewall
  tried with IPv6 enabled and disabled without change, so it is currently enabled
  tried on a Wi - Fi and the differences are listed below in the section work (work is wireless)
  able to ping other comptuers
  access to other computers is permitted by other computers

  problem extends over several networks, IE I noticed it at home last night and the followed problem my laptop at work this morning.
  The problem is slightly different on the two sites.

  At home:
  I can see the other computers on the network, but I am unable to access it, even if I have permission, but other computers can access to my laptop.

  At work:
  Cannot even find other computers on the network but they can find and access my laptop.

  I have worked on this problem of non stop for several hours and did much more than what is said, but I am unable to remember everything.  I should have been taking notes: P

  Asked this question in the Windows 7 forum also because the problem was between windows 7 and Vista.

  Hello

  If it has started, you can try a system restore - an update "might" have caused the problem.

  1. try a system restore back to a point before that happened. And immediately thereafter enter
  Control Panel - Windows updates - top left settings and set it to download and informs you instead
  Automatic. Leave it until you are sure that everything is OK and then you can add them one at a time
  to troubleshoot BUT click right on and HIDE all the driver updates. Also stop at day of drivers like below
  and let this value - manually search for drivers when you think you need. (See how and why to)
  stop day of drivers below.)

  How to make a Vista system restore

  To uninstall an update if you determine that there are problems - Panel - updated Windows - down left-
  Updates installed - uninstall

  I had completely forgotten the system restore!  While looking into the system restore, I found that when I moved into my new House and has cable Internet installed, the cable technology installed a program of comcast on my computer.  This caused me to not be able to connect with other computers.  After rolling back to install it before it works!   Thank you.

• Why there are other computers in my section shared on the finder?

  I have other computers not appearing in the section shared of my side bar of the Finder.  I suspect that my computer is see other computers on nearby wifi networks, but I want to know with certainty what it means.  How does if affect the security of my network, or not at all?

  I suspect you suspect correctly. It should not affect the security of your Mac at all.

• Color LaserJetPro M177, other: sharing printers of HP network suddenly cannot be installed on the network

  I don't know if this forum is the right place to post a question to the enterprise level.  But here's my problem:

  I work for a public school district.  We have a number of HP laser printers installed in various laboratories and classrooms in the district.  These printers are connected to our network and are shared through our print server, PS1, which runs Windows Server R2 2012.  Until very recently, we have had no problem installing, sharing, and use of these printers in this method.  I mean, basically, use us management of printing on PS1 to create a TCP/IP port, then install the HP drivers for the printer you want, and then create the shared printer.  It is relatively simple.

  However, at some point during 3-4 months, things stopped working.  We can always install printers HP on PS1 as before, namely, but on a client PC (Win7 Pro x 64), when we sail to PS1 and doubleclick, the driver printer to install it, we get a message that says:

  "A policy is in effect on your computer that prevents you to connect to this queue.  Please contact your system administrator. »

  This would seem to indicate a problem within group policy.  But the thing is, we had not brought no change in the strategy of group before the encounter this problem.  (We made some changes after seeing this error, to try to fix it, but nothing works).

  This problem seems to affect all THE HP printers that do not use the universal print driver.  We discovered that, for some reason, the UPD to PCL6, printing, v5.7.0, works fine.  However, not all HP printers are compatible with this driver.   For printers,'re missing us a workaround solution.  We have not had this problem with other printers shared through our print server - such as our brand printer Sharp 30/copiers or printers Brother 15 or more.  Those that all continue to work properly.

  It may be only 64 customers who are affected.  However, as computing has changed strongly in the paradigm of 64-bit, we have a few 32-bit workstations left on our network with which we can test.  And anyway, it wouldn't matter if it DOES not work on 32-bit clients, because all computer is now firmly 64-bit.  We need these drivers to work under a 64-bit paradigm.

  Of course, I checked to make sure that I am downloading the drivers of HP.  Where a printer is not compatible with the universal print driver, I have download Win7 x 64 driver.  Of course I don't want the full installer, so I try to download a barebones driver, if available.  If it is not checked out, I extract it using 7zip.  I then copy them to a directory "drivers" on the print server.  Then I open the server print management, create my port if it does not already exist and then do a right-click drivers and choose "install".  When you are prompted to select a driver to install, I choose "Disk" and navigate to the directory where the driver exists.  After the installation of the driver, I have printers right click and choose "Add a printer", and then I select the driver that I just installed when prompted.

  I then go to a client computer, go to \\PS1 (the server) and select the name of the printer that I want to install in the list of all the printers on PS1.  It is when I get the error described above.  I get this error, regardless of the level of permissions that has my account.  I get when I log using my District business administrator credentials.

  In the event logs on the client machine (Microsoft/Windows/PrintService/Admin), I get the following message after one of these attempts to pilot install:

  Description:

  The print spooler could not import the printer driver that has been downloaded from \\ps1\print$\x64\PCC\ntprint.inf_amd64_a7ac65d1b7714fb1.cab in the driver store for the driver HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M177 PCLmS. code error = 800f024b. This can happen if there is a problem with the driver or the digital signature of the driver.

  The printer that generated this message was a Color LaserJet Pro M177, but we have lived this message with any other HP printer models, including the LaserJet P3015.

  What is more revealing, in Journal of the client PC to install (c:\windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log), any attempt to install one of these 'broken' HP drivers generates the following output:

  From c:\windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log:

  Impossible to check the file 'UNIRES. DLL' against the catalog. Catalog = ntprint.cat, error = 0xE000024B

  !!!  Sto: catalogue contained no hash of the file. File is probably damaged or a victim of manipulation.

  !!!  Sto: Driver package appears to be falsified. Filename = C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\Temp\{61572abe-df8e-19bb-2d9b-d057c6484c6d}\ntprint.inf, error is 0x800F024B

  !!!  Sto: Driver package seems to be corrupted, and it will not be installed.

  !!!  NDV: Driver package has no signature validation. Error = 0xE000024B

  Sto: {DRIVERSTORE_IMPORT_NOTIFY_VALIDATE exit (0xe000024b)} 10:57:24.124

  !!!  Sto: Driver package has no signature verification. Error = 0xE000024B

  !!!  Sto: impossible to import the driver package in the driver store. Error = 0xE000024B

  Sto: {stage Driver Package: exit (0xe000024b)} 10:57:24.124

  It's the only omission or error that appears in the setupapi.dev.log, then it would be to think that it is the real culprit - Windows does not allow the installation of the driver, because it cannot verify the digital signature of the UNIRES. DLL, which rained investigatoin reveals himself as one files contained in hpcm177_64.cab.

  So.  HP.  Does this mean that you ship pilots who incorrectly signed?  Or maybe you adjust Unires.dll in these pilots AFTER their signature?  Or is it possible that the problem is a kind of problem of configuration on our side?  Or is this question is beyond the scope of this forum of HP?  If this is the case, please direct me to where I could ask this question to a more receptive ear?

  I think I found the root cause of the problem.  Ran across this post by Doug_Wright also on the HP forums:
  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/LaserJet-printing/solved-A-policy-is-in-effect-on-your-computer-which-prevents/m-p/5721939/highlight/true#M291619

  He said he received the same exact message we get when trying to install a printer on the network: "a policy is in effect on your computer that prevents you to connect to this queue."

  He said: "turns out be an update of KB3170455print spooler security.»  Uninstall this update fixed the issue. »

  I have tested this fix on my network, and it has indeed solved the problem.  After removing KB3170455 from a post test and restart, we once more able to install this worsktation HP network printers without receiving the message 'political prevents you to connect.

  However, some additional tests will be needed, as corrected by KB3170455 vulnerabilities are certainly valid - and my network is a public school district, it is certainly still 'at risk' for attacks of students wishing to test their abilities of "piracy".  But even still, it's good to finally know what really is the cause of this problem.  Before, I was grabbing at straws.

• I can see other computers on a network of peer to peer windows XP but cannot access their shared files and the shared printer.

  I can see other computers on a network of peer to peer windows XP but cannot access their shared files and the shared printer. The computers are connected by a switch, fixed IP addresses that are correctly configured and point to a DNS server outside the network. When I try to open the icon for one of the computers, he asked for credentials. I try to type the user name for the computer that is sharing the resource and the password. It is the user account whose computer is loged on and belongs to the Administrators group. for example: user name (Computer1\username) password (password). It does not work. The Windows Firewall is disabled on all computers. It worked well there 2 days. I can't find anything wrong with the network settings. Does anyone have a solution? Thank you.

  If the portion of the machine has activated - Simple file sharing (i.e. it is XP Home or it is XP Pro with Simple (default) file sharing) - while all file sharing connections authenticate as user 'guest '.  It will not matter what username / password you provide, it will attempt to authenticate as 'guest '.  If the guest user has received a password or the guest account is not active, you will experience the symptoms you describe.

  If the serving machine running XP Pro and Simple file sharing is disabled, then you should be able to connect by specifying the user as computer\user and the password to connect.  To turn off Simple file sharing:

• 0 x 80070035 and 0X80004005 error codes when you try to connect to other computers and devices on the same network - unable to connect to the shared devices.

  I have a network consisting of Windows 7 laptop computers, an XP laptop and a Wireless Linksys (Cisco) WRT610 N + N with storage attached to it via its USB port.  Your PC Windows 7 has, since I can see and access to other computers and devices on storage.  Since Windows 7 PC B I can not connect (via the file manager) to A PC or NAS storage network.  Get such as 0 x 80070035 and 0X80004005 error codes when you try to connect to the IP address on the device name.  When I ping the devices of PC B I have no trouble to achieve.

  I turned off all firewalls, added the LMHOST file entries and a myriad of other tests and still cannot connect to PC B devices.  I can surf the net fine and do everything else - simply cannot connect to other devices even if these other devices can connect to me.

  I was in there for 22 years and has worked as an engineer on major networks and the network I stem - anyone got any idead. I checked all the basics such as Netbios, file sharing etc etc.

  It took a reinstall (upgrade) to get actually it works again.
