Vista - FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

This started yesterday. No matter what I tried, I can not login.

It is on my new iMac (Intel, 3.06GHz). It has been working for 1 week,
and the synchronization between Mac and Pc was ok (although the files
created on Mac will wait for a while before it was synchronized to PC.
The other way works very fast).

I do not use mobileme. I disabled foldershare encryption on all my
machines (Mac and PC). Still does not work.

Any help will be very appreciated!

I should mention that my iMac is running Lepoard. The issue that I
described might be due to the recent operational system upgrade to
10.5.5, but I am not sure.

Re: FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

Ive got the same problem with my MBP. Also running Leopard 10.5.5. Stopped
being able to log into server abut 36 hours ago. I can log in fine with my
Windows computers running Vista. Anyone got any ideas.
Is this a server problem or a Mac problem?

Have the same problem with my Mac as well. Started yesterday. My Home
windows XP machine works fine with Foldershare. Apparently this is a Mac
unique problem

vista ultimate 32bit & Leopard 10.5.5
 
 

Re: FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

Same problem here, I have had no problems with foldershare 2.6.6, until Sunday morning, when I couldn't log in "FolderShare could not connect to the server". Don't think it's a 10.5.5 problem as that update was installed over a week ago. My Vista ultimate machine is working fine.

Re: FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

Same problem..running OSX 10.4.

My XP PC sitting right beside my mac connects, but the mac won't. I noticed
the problem starting Sunday morning.

Hopefully it's resolved soon.

Re: FS 2.6.6 Mac can not login

Two things:

1) This is a VISTA forum; not sure we'll find the help here we're like

2) I believe this is a PPC v Intel issue, not a Version-of-Mac-OS issue: my Intel macs (3) show as "offline" while my PPC mac happily connects. That it has nothing to sync with doesn't appear to disturb it in the least.

I'll test this with 2 other PPC macs later this evening.

More interesting, I believe, is that SOMETHING changed and noone at Foldershare/Windows Live/M$ had the decency to tell us of it. A bit discouraging, that.
