August 18, 201015 yr The Problem: You go to mount your AFP share and find it wont mount, and Beach Balls... Locking the MAC OSX machine up you are trying to connect from. (You cannot Force Quit this either, you have to reboot the machine to recover - can't from terminal either... which is most unusual) First - Mount the offending drive share using SMB instead of AFP using the GO menu to select "connect to server" afp://64.94.11.4 - AFP Mount (wont mount one or more drive shares and locks) use instead: smb://64.94.11.4 - SMB Mount - mount the drive that wont mount via AFP using SMB THEN you need to use something like filebuddy to look at hidden files and allows you to delete them. What should be there is the following: DELETE ANY HIDDEN EXCEPT .appledouble and your directory(s) with your data (UNRAID or NOTSHARE in this case) DISK11 - This is what should be here after its fixed, with the 2 shared directories NOTSHARE and UNRAID .AppleDouble NOTSHARE UNRAID Here is an example that WILL NOT MOUNT any more via AFP - I suspect spotlight is doing this, and you CAN delete .appleDB, .AppleDesktop, network trash, and Temporary Items with no problem. DISK12 .AppleDB - DELETE .AppleDesktop - DELETE .AppleDouble DO NOT EVER DELETE !!!! Network Trash Folder DELETE Temporary Items DELETE UNRAID - DO NOT DELETE THIS IS YOR DATA FOLDER When Done you will have DISK12 .AppleDouble UNRAID You will now be able to mount the AFP share sucessfully. This took me a good month to figure out how to do, and is not covered in any UNRAID SAMBA or AFP doccumentation. Hope it saves someone else the frustration. THANKYOU to all who help here.
