Hello
I am new here so here is my first question,
I just upgraded to snow leopard this weekend and I am having a small problem.
I have an aspire easystore nas box, I want the volume to automount, I have been reading how to this: Here is what I did:
Finder > GO >Connect to Server
smb://hercules or IP - I tried both ways
UID and PASS
Mounted just fine, I can read and write files to the volume - no problems - the problems start when I want to have it reconnect at startup: Here is what I did:
Made the volume appear on the desktop then opened
>system preferences > Accounts > clicked on my account >login items
Draged and dropped the volume into the window checked the "hide" and restarted the computer, the volume never opened, I looked back into:
>system preferences > Accounts > clicked on my account >login items
The line was gone, I tried it a few times same thing, so I created a new account and tried it with that account and it worked, why does it keep removing the line from the other account. Is there a way to make it work without having to use a new account.
next even though it worked on the other account, what I find annoying is that the volume window always opens on startup, how can I make that stop.
Any help would be great - I love mac, but there has to be an easier way that I am missing
