Q: I keep getting a message on my macbook pro that states.. There was a problem connection to the server.. Help what is this and how do I fix the issue?

Power off the router. Unplug it from the wall. Wait a while.

Plug it back to the wall. Power the router on. Wait until all the lights are lit properly. It will take a while.

Restart the computer.

Start up in Safe Mode.

There could be the automatic software update state so go to the system prefernces and click onto the software update and deselect the automatic update icon and you are done.

Hope this helped you out.

Thank You

It's baaaaaaaaack.  I had this problem for a couple years, then it went away, now it started again -- is not specific to OSX version -- started on Tiger, I'm now on Mountain Lion -- 10.8.5.  barely able to type this.  Below shows message and drives I am succesfully connected to.  Anything new?

Just updated to Yosemite.  Problem went away.  We shall see how long this hiatus lasts.   doubt Apple fixed it in Yosemite, as they always claimed it was not their problem.
