He apparently sent the massive log files off to Engineering, but no insight was obtained.

He had me install their Capture Data utility on both machines, and use it to capture detailed logs from the MBA and the Mac mini simultaneously while attempting a connection. I contacted Apple support, and eventually made my way through the AppleCare gauntlet to a Senior Advisor who took an interest. Or smb://miniserver.local (the miniserver’s mDNS name). While investigating this headache, I found that I can successfully connect using Finder/Go/Connect to Server… (Cmd-K shortcut), and then entering smb://192.168.1.6 (the IP of the Mac mini). If I then select one with a double-click, it generally take 30 seconds before the list of files & folders on the volume appears. Occasionally, after 10-20 seconds, the list of available volumes available on miniserver will appear. This solicits the Name and Password pop-up window to establish the connection, which then usually fails with an error box: “ There was a problem connecting to miniserver. This usually fails after 30s (with Connection Failed), but I’ve seen it take as long as 4:30 to timeout and report failure.Īnother way of connecting is with the Connect as button at upper-right of the Finder window. Clicking on miniserver displays Connecting… at the top of the Finder window. The miniserver appears in the list of locations in the sidebar of a Monterey finder window (as it should). Attempts to connect to ‘miniserver’ from a Finder window on the MBA are problematic. I have an M1 Mac mini (Big Sur) running on our network as a household file server, among other things. I’m hoping the TidBITS brain trust might have some insights on what’s going on. More hours on the phone with Apple support have been fruitless. Hours troubleshooting and searching on Google, without success. The latter shipped with Monterey, and has been nothing but headaches, not the least of which is an on-going problem with something as basic as file sharing.

At the start of the year, I retired a much-loved 2015-vintage MacBook Pro running Mojave and replaced it with an M1 MacBook Air.
