When I connect my external HD to the airport extreme and access the HD on my network I get an (!) on all the photos. The error says "unsupported file or damaged"

 

When I connect the external HD to another computer on the network then everything works fine.

Mac or Windows? Which version of the OS?

Which exact version of Lightroom?

The external drive is connected as not "sleeping", right?

Oh, I forgot only the photos are on the external drive. Lightroom is on my computer.

It is my understanding that you can have your photos on EG: Dropbox and can access the photos just fine. As long as lightroom resides on the computer.
