The specified network provider name is invalid

• Error: "\\(PC Name) is not accessible." You might not have permission to use this network resource... The specified network provider is not valid.

  Hi, this is a follow-up to the issue and my second attempt to find the solution. In addition, it is still connected to my first and second positions.

  My laptop that works with Windows 7 32-bit has 2 two natural questions:

  1. I can't access PC's on the network on the laptop itself and thus get an error:
  "\\(PC Name) is not accessible." You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server know if you have access permission. The specified network provider is not valid.

  2. When you make the file sharing Wizard, I get an error "your folder cannot be shared" and the only option is to click on 'Done '.

  I'm trying to share folders to another laptop that works with 64-bit Windows 8 but I think there must be a problem with the Windows 7 laptop. I can share and access all the folders of any laptop before.

  Thank you! Any useful response will be greatly appreciated.

• "The specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password", trying to connect to a remote drive.

  Original title: the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password.__To to connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.

  I am trying to connect to a remote drive. I clicked to map the drive, entered the name of the drive, came the name of login/password for the computer turns on and then it give me this error message: the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password. To connect using a different user name and password, first disconnect any existing mappings to this network share.

  In Windows 7 Enterprise, I would like to point out that, if you map \\server1\share1 as drive letter X using "user1" and "password1", then try to map \\server1\share2 (a different share) as drive letter Y using the same ID "User1" and "password1" and you select 'connect using different credentials' in the dialog box connect a network drive and specify the id "User1" and "password1". you will get this error MESSAGE INCORRECT that says 'the specified network folder is currently mapped using a different user name and password'.

  The message is bad because:

  1. the specified network (action2 in my example) folder is not mapped at all, and

  2. the server (in my example, "server1") is already mapped (to a different and different drive letter share) using the SAME user name and password.

  The error message is wrong in two respects.

  This let me puzzled for a while until I realized that once you have mapped to 'Server1' using the credentials, you can map to different actions on the same server without re - specify the credentials.  It is NOT CLEARLY the 'Map network drives' dialog box, which leads to users (like me, and I'm a programmer by trade) trying to enter credentials again and this incorrect error message.

  I got this message when trying to access a laptop on my home network. It's a laptop which came for years. The only change that occurred was the removal of a few videos to Windows Media Player. In fact, I was sitting near the laptop (laptop 1) that stores the video & audio files that I share on my network for years and an additional (cell 2) laptop computer on my network. I was simply remove a playlist via WMP and I witnessed portable 2 lose access to files I had shared for years with my home network. I don't even use WMP, I had just open trying to access the laptop 1 video/audio files to my PS3 system. I was clear an old list of video of WMP so I could add the extra avi files to the list that I had collected over the years. I wanted to not double many videos so I removed the videos in WMP list. Since then, I'm not able to share anything of my laptop 1 to the rest of my network. I did not like WMP before, now I really despise WMP. When I try to share a folder, right click, share with & click on homegroup (read/write), the option is not selected. Any solution would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

• Sync Center stops the error: the specified network name is no longer available

  Original title: stops Sync Center sync every time there is an error?

  The error is still "the specified network name is no longer available." Sync stopped with offline files. So I hit ignore and restart the synchronization. This happens about every minute during synchronization. I'd rather just complete synchronization what it can that stop all the time and I have to restart manually. Anyone knows any solution or what does the error message mean?

  I had a similar error.  This seems to be a function of the indexing of offline files when you synchronize a large number of files.  By temporarily disabling indexing of offline files, you can synchronize all your files and then re - activate the indexing.

  To disable indexing, clear the checkbox 'offline files' under control panel > Indexing Options.  Then synchronize as usual and re - activate when you are finished.

  I hope this helps.

• vmrun - error: the specified service provider was not found.

  Hello

  I installed vmware server 2 on Gentoo 2008.0.

  Installed versions:

  VMware-server 2.0.1.156745 - r3

  VMware-modules 1.0.0.24

  VMware vix 1.6.2.156745 - r2

  Everything works fine from a remote machine, but if I want to start a virtual machine in the console via vmrun, I get this error message:

  Error: The specified service provider was not found

  Any suggestions how I can fix this problem?

  The problems seem to stem from the fact that you don't have the "vix.libdir" parameter in your global configuration file. Usually, it is located in/etc/vmware/config by the presence of a line like:

  vix.libdir = "/opt/vmware/vix/lib"
  

  If you add to that, vmrun needs to start working.

  I can't use the network to locate files on a computer, and it drives me crazy to understand. Heck, he can't even locate yourself.

  Here is what comes up when I try to do.

  

  All computers, I clicked on do not work and they are all Windows 7 except for my laptop which is 8.1. Any fix?

  Thank you

  Original title: the specified network provider name is Invalid

  Hi Christian,

  I would like to ask you:

  • What operating system is installed on the system you are trying to access?
  • You have enabled sharing on the computer that you are trying access?

  I suggest you to change the settings on the computer that you are trying to access the network and enable sharing on this computer. This error appears when the computer or the computer is connected to the network but the sharing is not enabled.

  Reference:

  Networking of computers running different versions of Windows

  If you are running Windows 8 or 8.1 of Windows on another computer, see:

  Search for computers, devices and content on your network

  Let us know the results once you have enabled sharing on the other computer. I hope this helps. We will be happy to help you further.

• Impossible to rename a folder in COM error "the specified device name is invalid.

  Original title: A picturesque problem!

  Hi dear friends
  I came across a picturesque problem, someone at - it also have problems? : D

  http://seorooz.IR/WP-content/uploads/2014/06/capture.PNG

  Hello

  Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forum.

  The error "the specified device name is invalid" is displayed if you try to name a folder with a name that represents a limit of MS-DOS device name.

  The MS-DOS device driver names cannot be used as file names in Windows. As a result, we cannot name as records con, zero, etc.

  Microsoft MS-DOS booked these names for these system device drivers.

  • CON: Keyboard and display
  • PRN: System list device, usually a parallel port
  • To THE: auxiliary device, usually a serial port
  • CLOCK$: the system real-time clock
  • DRAW: Bit-Bucket device
  • A:-Z:: the drive letters
  • COM1: First communications port series
  • LPT1: First parallel printer port
  • LPT2: Second parallel printer port
  • LPT3: The third parallel printer port
  • COM2: Second communication port series
  • COM3: Third serial communications Port
  • COM4: Fourth serial communications Port

• Windows cannot connect to the printer. The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.

  A Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2 32-bit computer is a field, the file and print server.

  A computer on the domain is a machine of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit with HP DesignJet 500 24 printer connected via USB.  The printer is running the latest firmware.  The PC is running the latest 64-bit drivers with no problems to the host machine printing.  The host also has the latest drivers 32-bit (x 86) installed by downloading by other computers on the network.  The printer is configured to share with the share name of HPDJ500.

  Now, on a machine Windows XP Pro SP3 32 bit on the field, I'm trying to connect to the shared printer.  Add a printer > click Next in the wizard of > check "a network printer or a printer attached to another computer" and then click Next > click on "Find a printer in the directory", then click Next > click Find now > HPDJ500 in the list below (the XP machine can see the shared printer on the Windows 7 computer!) and click OK.  At this point, I get an error that says: "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  The name of the printer has been correctly entered, or the specified printer has lost its connection to the server.  For more information, click Help. »

  Alternatively, if I right-click on the HPDJ500 printer listed, then click on connect, I get the same error message but I also see a separate window that says "Connecting to HPDJ500 on H2.ws.net" with the lively projector.  This window also disappears as soon as I clear the error message.

  Please note that this printer worked perfectly as a printer shared, hosted on a machine XP 32 bit on the field.  It works perfectly for the new Windows 7 64-bit machine, but we cannot connect from anywhere else on the network (including the server which translates the same exact error message).  On the server, I also preinstalled drivers thinking there was a problem with a 32-bit computer, trying to grasp the correct drivers from the host 64-bit Windows 7, but that doesn't change anything.

  How connect to this printer?

  Try using the path UNC path of the printer in the Add Printer Wizard.

  Add a printer > network printer > connection to this printer ((deuxieme point)

  Click next to browse (leave blank, the name field) or type the UNC path of the printer (i.e. \\Computername\Printername) path

• The network domain name

  I have two PCs (both with Windows XP SP3) and an HP printer that are networked and cables Ethernet and a 2Wire gateway.  Now I want to install Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.6 on one of the computers and do a dual-boot machine.  The other PC will stay only with Windows XP.

  During the installation of Debian, I am asked to provide the name of the network domain.  He tells me that I have a name, but to be sure to use the same domain name on all computers.

  I configured the domestic network (using Windows XP), a long time ago and I honestly don't remember not so and what name I gave to the network.  I'm not much of an expert with these things, would someone please tell me how can I find my network name in Windows XP?  Of course, I would like to use the same name when installing Debian.

  I went at the start-> my network places, but then I don't know where is the name of the network on this screen...

  Thank you.

  Probably, you don't have a domain name because you really do not have a domain.  You have a working group name, yet if Debian will recognize that and use it sometimes as a 'domain name' I don't know.

  To find your workgroup name (which is probably "Workgroup" or "MSHome") make a right click my computer and choose Properties. On the "Computer name" tab, you should see the name of indicated working group.

• Windows 7: delete the file - the specified file name is not valid or too long

  Hi I'm trying to delete some files in vain.  I have two types of error messages.

  (1) could not find this file. It is no longer in C:\Users\...
  Check the location and try again.

  (2) the name that you specified is invalid or too long. Specify a different file name.

  There are 7 files in total.  All these files are left by an old Ubuntu experience.   Some of the files were zero kb, but most are non-zero(but small).  Five files are I think printer drivers that end in .Act.  The other two files are in different directories (no KB file) and are called the same thing, "template.desc."

  I tried to go through the forums, but I couldn't understand it.  Thanks in advance to anyone who can help you.

  The only way to remove it is the old way of BACK. Seems the info NTFS, files are broken, but the BACK is always very good.

  I had them and it worked:
  1) open to the high command prompt (CMD)
  Type cd 2) then the location of the file (in my case
  c:\users\james\desktop)
  type dir/x 3)
  (4) next to the file to delete, it will tell the 8.3 file name
  (e.g. HEDI ~ 1).
  (5) type del then 8.3 file name (e.g. HEDI ~ 1).
