Q: There was a Problem connecting to the Server. Can anyone Help.

Why don't you just select your own wifi network, and then tell you computer to forget the other one.  After that it will automatically go to yours first. 

That solution solved mine. Thanks

I network my MSI laptop to my Macintosh Computer, which was fine until i closed my laptop and got a dialog box on my mac saying “ there is a problem connecting to the server”, but when i open my laptop, it didn’t show up.

I ONLY use my laptop for certain things, like 3D art and such. and i hate the ideal of having to open my laptop if I’m using my mac.

So this did work for me, so I hope this works for you.

1. First clear the recent servers address on your computer, just hold down Command/K and goto the clock looking icon and go down to “Clear Recent Servers”.

2. Then make a new folder on your desktop so you can copy all the files in the Preferences folder to it.

3. goto Library/Preferences and copy all the files to the folder you made on your Desktop, then trash all the files in the Preferences folder, then i restart my computer, this should add new Preferences to the Preferences folder on your computer.

4. copy all of the Preferences files from your desktop Back to Library/Preferences and it will ask you to Authenticate, just click on Authenticate Button, then it will ask to replace the existing files, ONLY click on the Replace button.

5. Restart your computer, that should do it, you will have to re-set some Preferences back to the way you had it, for me it was the Energy Saver settings and my monitor setup, you should not get the pop-ups dialog box saying “ there is a problem connecting to the server ”.

I hope this helps

Hey guys,

this one worked for me:

Error ”NetAuthSysAgent: ERROR: AFP_GetServerInfo - connect failed 64”

I had some trouble with the firewall settings. Hope this fixed it.

Excellent!! This solved my problem. Thank you.

Great. That's what I intended!

I needed to only the first step of the listed suggested by VirusHunter562:

1. First clear the recent servers address on your computer, just hold down Command/K and goto the clock looking icon and go down to “Clear Recent Servers”.

However this is a randomly recurring problem, whether the offending box is on or off.  So only time will tell. thx!

Thank you very much! This solved my problem

Works for me in Mac OS 10.11 El Capitan. I just deleted com.apple.loginitems.plist thanks a lot!
