Mac can't access any share in network

[paulh]

Hi,

My iMac (running Snowleopard) can't acces any share in my network. It consists of a NAS (DS209) and a mediatank (popcorn hour C-200). I have defined shares on the NAS and a share on the mediatank.

In Finder I see both the mediatank and the NAS. Both are connected according to Finder (resp. user=admin and user=nmt). However when I try to access a share on the NAS or the mediatank via Finder, I get an error-message:

"The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “XXXX” can’t be found."


Also I can't Time Machine get working using a specific share on the NAS. Time Machine recognizes the share, but when I select the share I get an error message OSerror 13.

Probably both errors are caused by the same thing. Is there anybody who can help to get things working?

Thanks,

Paul

You are clicking on an alias that no longer valid. You need to access the server directly to reestablish it. When in you are properly logged-in, your share should be mounted on your Desktop.

@MisterMe,

Could you explain what to do? I am not aware that I created any alias, but I am not an expert and only followed the standard instructions (described in the synology manual).

Thanks,

Paul
