I didn't do it this way...
Authored by: psxndc on Sep 10, '03 12:37:35PM
I kept getting the same thing after "canceling" an attempt to connect to my Windows box. Using term, I went under /Volumes and saw that the it had already been mounted, or at least os x thought it was. I typed

#umount OffendingVolumeName

That cleared it up for me. Rebooting also seemed to fix it, but these cases may just be a different problem with the same error code.

I've run into a similar problem with a WebDAV mount. It would disappear entirely from the Finder, but I'm still able to see and work with files on the mounted drive via the terminal.

I'm not sure where I initially saw this posted, but if you use the 'Go to Folder' shortcut (Shift-Cmd-G) and specify '/Volumes/MyMount' it'll magically appear.

Relaunch the Finder.

Mounts automagically appear.

Since some of us now see a reason to quit the Finder that we might not have realized before, we might suddenly find these tips useful:
