Why doesn' work-sharing.  Or shared devices?  or...

Hi all

I created a new virtual machine.  I installed the software, etc.  Now I need to copy some files.

I run a workstation with 8.1 64-bit Win and 16 GB of RAM, a 4770 I7 CPU, with many readers.  I have a number of virtual machines and most of the work very well.  But I have one that causes me headaches.

(1) if I try to drag files from my main desktop to a VM Explorer explorer, nothing happens.

(2) if I say that it connects to a USB port, it acts as it goes, but does not work.

(3) if I said always share a drive on the main office, it indicates that it's going to, but doesn't.

(4) I can not understand how to 'see' a drive on the network - I can see it, but he wants to connect, but not will not connect with one account other than the virtual machine.  Shared files on the network are simply from the desktop (no real server or whatever it is.)

It's almost as if there is some setting somewhere that I can't find (perhaps in a somewhere .ini file) that has this particular VM configured so that nothing that I enable to see the outside world (including the Office of the host.

My other virtual machines do not have this problem.

I went to manage and told to fix and change the virtual machine tools, and he acted as she did.  But still work does not correctly.

Any suggestions where to look to fix this?

Thank you!

OK, so I found a fix.  When I click on the network, I have to choose the PUBLIC networks (I usually choose private networks).  When I take the public, then I can see vmHost and am able to see the shared drive.  I don't remember which is how it used to work (I remember seeing a share at the end of the list on the left, but heck, it works, I'm happy.)

But I still don't know why I can't see the USB...  And there is only 1 virtual computer running, is not an another VM who tries to use it.

Any ideas on that?

  • I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices.

    I have a Macbook air running OS X El Capitan. I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive. But when I look in the Finder, nothing is available for shared devices. I don't know if I need to restart the time Capsule or change the wireless setting, etc. ?

    Please advise...

    The TC appears in airport utility? If not then it is probably not part of your network or is lost... upgrade installed you El Capo because there a lot of questions.

    What is the TC plugged into the network by ethernet? And configured properly? Are you to internet via the TC... but can not see his drive... that would be typical?

    Have you set Finder preferences to display the network drives? Apple keeps making it difficult for some unknown reason.

    You actually have to mount the drive TC if it appears under shared... it still may not appear if you double click on it. Under the search box on the top of the right hand you see Connect (As) box, type the name or IP address of the TC in there... Make sure that you save the password from your keychain.

    I try to use my Time Capsule as external hard drive

    For the storage of the files it is fine.

    For the execution of direct files for an application in the Mac, you are very likely to damage or corrupt the file at some point.

    And how do you do backups? Time Machine can't help you... it won't work.

    Backup is crucial, especially if you do things apple say not to do... That is to say move your photos or the iphoto library to the TC and try to use direct from there... expect any day to need a resumption of the library.

  • Why doesn't my password work?

    I signed up for an account in the last 30 minutes. I chose a password and confirmed. Then I went to the Android store to download Firefox for Android on my phone - and it has worked successfully. But when I tried to login, my password was rejected. I checked to make sure it was the same thing, and it is. Why doesn't my password work? Oh, and it is 9 characters long with two digits.

    In addition, I tried to change my password of Firefox on my desktop PC to be rejected for the same problem. So I can't even change my password (it takes the old password).

    Password for what?
    This forum?
    The synchronization service account of Firefox?
    Or?

  • unknown shared device

    When I open the Finder, there is a shared device I don't know: 'hp6cc2... '. ', what is? How can I remove it please?

    It's probably a neighbours PC located on the scope of a WiFi to your computer. Nothing to do but ignore and Yes, he can probably see your machine, but it is completely secure and there is Nothing to worry about.

  • A single storage backup subscription can be shared with all family shared devices?

    A single storage backup subscription can be shared with all family shared devices?

    I have a family membership of 200 GB storage for 5 of my iPhone backups under an account id unique apple.

    I'm separating each iPhone at its own apple ID to avoid current problems. Can I share the backup of the storage with the family share?

    If I can't, I'll have to buy a subscription to backup for each device that will be more expensive.

    Unfortunately, iCloud storage cannot be shared under sharing of family.  See more details here- family shares - Apple Support

  • Why doesn't use Lightroom CC NOT my cpu to generate a slideshow?

    Why doesn't use Lightroom CC NOT my cpu to generate a slideshow? When I open the Task Manager, it shows that lightroom uses less than 1%. I have an i7 chip with 32g ram. After an hour, it is only 2% of fact.

    Hey Mohit;

    Thanks for the reply.

    My GPU is checked, and I found the problem. One of the photos in the slide show was missing. As soon as I removed the missing picture in slideshow, it works beautifully.

    MacBook Pro (2015 retina) OS X 10.11.2 El Capitan

    Have you shut down / turning your Mac off... power off the USB drive... Connect the drive to the Mac... start up the Mac... then, turn on the USB drive?

    If no help, there are a number of posts to the thread in the forum El Capitan of support from users who have problems on their Mac USB.  You can post there to see if anyone has the answers.

  • Why doesn't my computer slow and down so often?

    Hello

    Why doesn't my computer slow and down so often?  I have quite a few red errors and yellow when I look where the Viewer, how can I get rid of them?  And also I have Norton installed on my PC Utillities, can this program to get rid of these errors?

    Take a look in the system and Application logs in the errors and warnings event viewer and post here the copies. Do not post on more than 48 hours ago.

    You can access event viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, and Event Viewer. When searching for the meaning of the error, information about the event ID, Source and Description are important.

    A tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. You will see a button resembling two pages. Click on the button and close Event Viewer. This places a copy of the report to your Clipboard. Paste it into the body of your message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

  • Speakers stopped working after changing the device sound card

    * Original title: switched to hi-speed of dial-up, speakers stopped working / / rev. #2 Can I change the title of: speakers stopped working after changing the device sound card

    I have a Motorola SM56 speakerphone modem, I went from dial-up to the Road Runner.   When I open Device Manager and expand the sound column it lists "High definition Audio Device" (manufacturer of Microsoft), there are 4 that say "NVIDIA High Definition Audio" then there is one that says "Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device.  When I open the properties of the Unimodem device it says ' device working properly. "

    Let me start at the top under "General".  It lists the name of the device: Unimodem half-duplex Audio device.    Device type: audio, video and game controllers;    Manufacturer: Microsoft;    Location: Motorola SM56 Speakerphone modem.

    My speakers worked very well before I went.   I tried updating the driver but he came back with "best driver already installed.  It is a desktop PC, it is about 6 years old, but has been revised, graphics card new, updated to power, new 4 GB ram I think.  The hard drive is 1 TB.   I'm running Windows 7 Pro.  I forgot to mention, if I open a WMV file and volume in the taskbar commands, I see the green light moving.  The green light on the actual speakers turned on, just no sound.  It seems to me that the old speakers do not like the new modem from Time Warner. (I'm an old lady, what the devil I know)

    It is a question of another driver, or is it something else?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Are plug you the speakers into the modem?

    They must be connected in making your computer speaker, usually a light green color (read the manual of the machine). Go to control panel / sounds / playback and make sure that the type of speakers you selected as the default device.
    Audio device drivers updated its better to not use MS Update (it is not). Re-post giving your machine make name and exact model number (for example HP, Inspiron, ABC1234 etc.).
    See you soon,.
