May 26, 2014 1:23 PM in response to motorhead9999by BDAqua,In Finder's Menu, select Go menu>Go to Folder, and go to "/volumes". (no quotes)
Volumes is where an alias to your hard drive ("/" at boot) is placed at startup, and where all the "mount points" for auxiliary drives are created for you to access them. This folder is normally hidden from view.
Drives with an extra 1 on the end have a side-effect of mounting a drive with the same name as the system already think exists. Try trashing the duplicates with a 1 or 2 if there are no real files in them, and reboot.
If it does contain data...

May 27, 2014 5:01 PM in response to BDAquaby motorhead9999,The only thing when I do that is a shortcut to my laptop harddrive. The NAS is showing up on the "shared" drives on the left hand sidebar, but doesn't show up when I do the /volumes thing.

Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any more clues or repeating messages when this happens.

May 28, 2014 2:31 AM in response to BDAquaby motorhead9999,This is what I get when I try and connect to it...looks like it can't find the devices IP address, buts a fixed ip on a local network. How do I check/change what address it's looking for?

May 28, 2014 11:00 AM in response to motorhead9999by BDAqua,Are there any other fixed IPs on the network?
Do you know the IP of the NAS? IP of the Mac?
-
May 28, 2014 3:49 PM in response to BDAquaby motorhead9999,I believe the NAS is the only thing that's fixed IPwise.
I can access the NAS's interface via the fixed IP in a web browser, and I see no IP conflict among the rest of the devices connected to my network.

May 28, 2014 6:02 PM in response to motorhead9999by BDAqua,Let's say the NAS is 192.168.2.47
Computers would need to be 192.168.2.x to connect to it, except using a Browser that looks for any IP.

May 28, 2014 6:09 PM in response to BDAquaby motorhead9999,Ah. Yes, all devices on my network are 192.168.1.x of some different last digit.
