The server could not be connected

all of sudden laptop, drive cs4 not connect vc server on desktop. working fine before , sees in drive, persistent @ displaying, "the server not connected" when trying connect it. when trying remove it, displays, "the server not removed" try resetting all.
there technote sort of deals macs, none of steps working when says stop processes , clear cache. haven't done windows, adobe, nor other software or hardware updates recently, can't that.
so, in drive, vc server showing up, refuses connect it. have ideas?

hi damien,
my suggest:
- go server admin page, log in, go advanced tab , there preferences.
enter ip of desktop (the 1 hosts vc server sure) "external url", "http://" , port "3703". save that.
- exit drive if running!
- make invisible folders visible!
- go
vista = c:\users\"your username here"\appdata\roaming\adobe\
xp = c:\documents , settings\"username here"\application data\adobe\

delete folder "cs4servicemanager"

if cannot delete because still used, wait 2 minutes (the servicemanager has timeout) or restart machine

now delete again , should work connect server again.
but yo have give login credentials again!

hope helps.

if not work, please come , see else can done.

thanks reporting
markus
