retrying with upper case share name
mount error 6 = No such device or address
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

I worked on this for a while and looked all over for a solution. It is 2011 (now) and surely this still can’t be an issue. Well, finally figured it out. Don’t include the Time Capsule name in the mount call, just include the directory name:

[cc lang="bash"]sudo mount -t smbfs -o user=craig,pass= ,rw,uid=503,gid=10000 –verbose //10.0.1.1/craigCapsule/data /media/capsule
[/cc]

and remove the “craigCapsule” and so it is just:

[cc lang="bash"]sudo mount -t smbfs -o user=craig,pass= ,rw,uid=503,gid=10000 –verbose //10.0.1.1/data /media/capsule
[/cc]

Make sure you use the uid and gid (set to your user account) otherwise you will not be able to write to it.

from matplotlib.figure import Figure
from matplotlib.backends.backend_agg import FigureCanvasAgg

fig = Figure(figsize=(4,4))
fig.gca().plot(range(1,10))
canvas=FigureCanvasAgg(fig)
canvas.print_figure(‘bob.png’, dpi=150)
[/cc]

There are likely some other ways to do it, but this works for me.

Then, often when I find the directory I have been looking for I want to get a Terminal window that is in that same directory. Typically I have just opened a Terminal window and cd’ed to the location – which can be quite laborious. So, finally, I looked around for a solution. I found a nice little Finder button called cdto. This will put a button on the Finder window and open a Terminal in the same directory as where the Finder is currently pointing.

Nice…
