Corrective Actions

When importing or exporting
(sending) between K2 Media
Clients a “…failed to
connect…” message appears
and the operation fails.

There is a problem with
Windows networking or there is
a mis-spelling with the host
name as entered in
Configuration Manager.

Check networking as follows:

- Check basic Windows
networking. Use Windows
Explorer to test a basic copy
operation to the machine to
which you are trying to connect.
If basic networking fails, use
standard Windows procedures to
troubleshoot and correct your
network.

- If the Windows network is
working properly, in AppCenter
select

System | Configuration |

Remote

and verify that the name

of the machine to which you are
trying to connect is spelled
correctly and has no extra spaces
or characters.

The K2 Media Client to which
you are trying to connect is not
operating or the network is
mis-configured.

Verify that the K2 Media Client
to which you are trying to
connect is operational and that
the network is configured
correctly. Verify that the name of
the K2 Media Client is entered
correctly in the Configuration
Manager Hosts page. Refer to
networking procedures in the K2
Media Client System Guide
