Unable to access networked computer

I have a home network with 4 computers connected on it.

Comp a, I can see Comp B, but when trying to access the contents of B, an error message says that I have no power to access and ask to contact a administrator. Note: I am the administrator.

Any help?

Hello

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 .

When you have finished the configuration of the system, it is recommended to restart everything the router and all computers involved.

  • Unable to access network printer after the last automatic update.

    After automatic security update KB2660465 and KB2661637 today, I can no longer print or access our office network printer. I think it has something to do with the Windows Firewall, but I'm not sure what to change. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply. I understand the problem. After the last update, it must have been a change to the firewall. I was finally able to reinstall the FIRST printer by turning off the firewall. This allowed me to see the printer and reinstall it. It worked very well after turning on the rear firewall after installation.

  • Unable to access computer because the account password for Windows Vista has been forgotten and don't have a password reset disk/hard to find ways to restore the system... Help please

    Hello
    I'm stuck on the screen on my computer for my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit edition. The password to the user account has been lost, and now I am unable to access my computer. I don't have a created password reset disk so I can't reset the password. I searched these forums and seems the most effective way is to run a system restore to a time where I did have a password for my account. Fortunately for me, I did an automatic update of Windows that created a system restore point literally moments before I put the password, so I should be able to get access to my computer once I figured out how to get system restore to work. The advice I found on other forums do not seem to work, because I'm in my Windows vista operating system disc, but no screen is coming up with 'Repair your computer', which indicate the steps happen. I need assistance to find another way to run the system restore on boot menus/Vista/DVD CD. Thank you.

    Go to Bestbuy or other PC shop. They can fix it for you. (Could I have so I am not allowed to post these alternative instructions.)

  • My 3rd Windows 7 computer is unable to access the computers on the network. "Unable to browse the network", or "the network is not present or not started.

    original title: unable to browse the network.

    All computers must be on a working group to see and access on the same network otherswise, you won't have access to each other.

    Pls check your computers under workinggroup (domain name)

  • The share of customers unable to access the network - error 0x80004005

    Hello, my network has the following configuration.

    • Server - Windows 2003 Server - acting as DNS, domain controller, file server
    • Clients - Windows XP Pro, Windows Vista business, Windows 7 Pro
    • DHCP server is on my router. All customers running on DHCP

    For some unknown reason, some network sharing has stopped working since yesterday. When users connect by Ctrl + Alt + Delete by using their network accounts, they are unable to access their computers in office, services, Skype etc., gives an error of 0 x 80004005 (unspecified error). They are not forced to use roaming profiles.

    I opened Windows Explorer and typed \\server\share. The same error is invited. However, if I try to access the share of \\ip\share, it can show me the files without a problem.

    I took to refine measures issues

    • Connectivity - outcome of the network: Internet access / access server by IP. So no connectivity problem
    • Ping-ing the name of the computer server - result: OK. So not a DNS problem
    • Check firewalls – result: Clients running Windows Firewall correctly. Network type, the value of 'work '.

    Other facts that may be useful

    • No third-party firewall. All running on Windows Firewall.
    • No settings changed before problem appeared
    • Problem appeared after a reboot the server

    (P.s. Skype prompted "Cannot find necessary files and cannot start". "I think it's the same problem with network shares, because the application data is also stored in network shares.)

    Original title: Edimax Extender will not get internet access

    I naoual got a N300 Eimax universal Wi - Fi extender but I am unable to connect to the internet.  They suggest setting up near the wi - fi access point to get the signal stronger and I got to show connected in the window ' currently logged in ', but it does not connect to the network.  EDIMAX has proposed upgrading the firmware, but I was unable to get any joy with that either.  Anyone with any ideas would be appreciated.

    Hi Gofchap,

    Thanks for the question of validation in Microsoft answers community!

    I imagine the frustration you feel when you are unable to access the network.

    The problem may be because of the Extender, diverter, or with the network adapter.

    1 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    2. do you receive any error messages?

    3. What is brand and model computer?

    4. have you tried to connect without using the extender?

    Hi guys. on the macbook in system preferences > sharing there is a box at the top that says "computers on your local network can access your computer at:" means that other people can access my computer?

    "Your local network" is the computers that are on the same router as you. At home, this is your family.

    to: "computer name" is the name of the computer, they will see.

    Access is provided for items you decide to activate, usually file sharing. For sharing of files, ONLY the items that you specify in the file sharing dialog box details panel is accessible and be only users you EXPLICITLY list by username.

  • The computer hangs when you access network resources

    I have this problem with a couple of computers at work.  Here's the question:

    Computer does not display the network icon in the system tray.  When you try to access everything which concerns internet, nothing works.  IE Page not found errors, etc.  When I go to control panel > network connections, my computer freezes and I have to close the Task Manager Control Panel to continue.   My computer will also freeze/hang up when I try to use another application that requires an internet connection.

    Not help not to restart normally.  The only way I could fix is by turning it off for a while, and turning back on later.  But even if it does not work 50% of the time.  Restarting over and over again does nothing; the computer still plays the same, no network icon / freezing when you access network resources.  Once he decides to however works, the computer has internet/network connectivity and no problems until what it is off again.

    I tried all the drivers out there for my network card and reformatted 3 times is not a virus/spyware.  The I'm having a problem with the current computer is one day having no application other than Windows Update, Microsoft Office, Java, Flash and Adobe reader installed.  They are all Dell computers, some are of the Vostro desktops, while some are older of the Inspiron.  Questions computers are running Windows XP SP3.
