Now go to your server and setup local shares for the ATTACHMENT folder as that is where all the forwarded email attachments will be saved to.If you don't have your SMTP setup in your copier - now would be a good time. Use the email address sendtodropbox gave you. By using sendtodropbox, you only need to create one entry as you will be sharing one folder (called attachments) on your LAN for whomever you want to have access to it. In a Canon iR, you have to setup an address entry. Login to your copier web interface and setup your job forwards (such as fax forwarding) to forward via email.Afterwards, they will give you an email address for forwarding all your attachments to. Go to and setup by signing into your Dropbox account.Login to have all dropbox content loaded to that computer. Load Dropbox on your server - or a Mac that you will setup shares on.So I ditched the whole idea and came up with a brilliant idea if I don't mind tooting my own horn. So after upgrading to OS X Lion and finding out the Canon salesman lied about compatibilty, I tried using FTP and setting up in Terminal - which would not work. Mac Mini Server - Lion and Lion Server.16 iMac's, macbooks and mac air's using OSX Lion.But instead of messing with SMB and FTP - which is a pain to setup and work-around, I use a much easier way to do the forwarding. Copier companies are learning quickly that they must support Mac OS X more than they do. ![]() When Apple said "Think Different" I wasn't aware they were referring to problem workarounds □Īfter Reading all 5 pages of posts - I have to say that it appears everyone is beating a dead horse. Fix for that (as mentioned somewhere else here) was to create a new macuser AD account and use it to access the Windows shares. Hope this helps!Īlso - ran into the issue where with some AD users authentication would fail, even though we'd verified username and changed password to known/good. Used that a LONG time ago troubleshooting a Mac connection to a Windows share via VPN. Fix was to type the smb:///share string into Safari - brought up the un/pw prompt and upon entering the Active Directory (AD) credentials opens Finder and the network shares. Post laptop fix it just flashed a 'trying to conect' window which disappeared without connecting or prompting for un/pw. We had previously been able to access using the command-K smb:///share which brought up a username and password prompt. ![]() Have a client who's Macbook Pro just died, and when they (Apple) fixed it we lost the ability to browse to their company Win2008R2 File server. Been beating my head flat on this for about an hour now and have a fix (that works for me anyway).
