    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Hi. Ok. The Win7 box still connects and copies/deletes files no problem. Volumes/storage comes up under SHARED area on Finder on the iMac. I am able to make a folder in both Finder and from Terminal. But I cannot copy any files using Finder. I can still copy in terminal using the CP...

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Thanks for your help. Here is where things are at: 1. I can copy to the drive using Terminal and the cp command. 2. I cannot copy using Finder 3. If I exit the finder window after connecting to the drive (as your have outlined above) I am immediately disconnected from the drive. This is a...

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Well something is screwy here. First up, I am attempting to connect to the USB hard drive hanging off the router with smb://IP_address. The imac then asks how I want to connect. Either as a guest or as a user and I type in my password. I'm then connected to the drive. BUT I cannot copy...

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Thanks for the link. I'll pay attention to the slashes and see if that's my issue. I'll post a follow-up tonight. Strange that the slashes would cause the problem of not being able to copy files using Finder, but not pose any issues with a copy using the 'cp' command in terminal. Cheers.

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Ok. New problem now. I can read/write files to the 250gb drive from my Windows 7 machine but NOT my iMac. So half the problem has been solved. Whenever I try to copy a file to the drive I'm told "The item 'test.doc' can't be copied because there isn't enough free space". This is crap...

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    When attached to my PC for formatting, and using the Fat32Format utility, the drive looks like a regular external 250GB drive. The properties report as a 250gb Fat32 formatted drive. I will post screen captures later. Regarding drive mapping, I have not mapped the drive yet due to the errors...

    Actiontec V1000H USB External Storage not reading properly

    Hi. I'm suck and hoping to find help here. Thank you for reading my post. I have an Actiontec V1000H router/modem provided by my ISP. The modem/router has a USB port that is active and works. The USB port reads (so I've been told) NTFS and FAT drives. I have a 250gb external hard drive that...
