There is not "fix" to be provided, Apple made a decision to not include the file sharing profile.
You are welcome to provide feedback, but after six years, I would not hold your breath.

File sharing with multiple users on one Mac

I have two Macs, both of which ca seen each other across the network. My question regards file sharing with multiple users on the same computer. When file sharing, are the files from all users available across the network, or just those of the user presently logged in? The issue is that I am trying to access files from a user who isn't currently logged in, but another user on that computer is. I need to get into that person's documents, but I don't see a way to navigate to their documents folder.

Right, I got that. But the computer is in constant use by User A, while I need access to User B's files. I could need access at anytime, and it would be a pain to make User A log off and log in as User B everytime. I was just wondering if there is anyway to access User B's files in this situation, without logging User B in.

File sharing with PC

Hi,
I'm new to the Mac experience and I'm trying to set-up file sharing with my MacBook and PC and I can't figure it out. I've tried entering the PC's IP address through the Finder - Connect to Server, but I can't get it working.
I would appreciate any suggestions you have to offer! Thanks.

File sharing with accounts

I currently have my TC configured for file sharing with a disk password. Lately, however, I find that I have a need to be able to restrict read/write access to certain folders and files based on the user. But, when I select File Sharing "With Accounts" from the drop down I get a warning message stating "Setting up user accounts will make any files already on AirPort disks inaccessible." Seems like a pretty vague warning considering the possible outcome!
Does this mean I will lose access to all existing files already on the TC disk permanently, or just until I configure the accounts with access?
Thanks for any insight.

Is the file sharing the same between the TC and the AirPort Extreme 802.11n (Gigabit Ethernet) with a USB2 connected disk?
My experience is that the network share of the shared disk is different, but no files get lost. One can move between the security mechanisms without losing data. YMMV.
Here are my findings in detail: I was using the shared disk "With a Disk Password". When connecting from a Mac, a single share called like the partition of the disk would automatically mount. On that disk I put some folders "Music" and "Videos" directly in the root of the mounted share. The same volume also had a backup copy of my Mac mini, that I did when it was still locally connected (USB2 directly to the mini) rather than via Disk sharing. From that time there is still a "Users" folders there. One important folder is called "Shared". All folders and their files are accessible.
"Volumename" (share)
- Music
- Photos
- Videos
- Shared
- Users
When I changed from "With a disk password" to "With accounts", I also get the warning about "...will make any files already on AirPort disks inaccessible".
After the change, I have no access to "Music", "Photos" or "Videos" anymore.
However, there is still the share called "Volumename", but now it points to the sub folder "Shared" !!!!
When connecting from either Windows or Mac I see two shares. One called "Volumename" and the other matching the user name. I think the user share actually points to /users/username.
When switching back to "With a disk password", all is like it was before - no files are lost, the "Music", "Photos" and "Videos" folders stay there, and so does all their content.
I will now try to move them into the "Shared" folder, so that the share content after switching to Secure Shared Disk "With Accounts" will look the same as the content looked until now.

Vista file sharing with OS 10.3.4

Are there known issues with Windows Vista OS connecting and file sharing with Mac OS 10.3.4? We can connect Windows XP with Mac OS 10.3.4, but two Vista machines cannot. Any ideas?

Maybe a lack of support for something the Vista OS uses.
Mac OS 10.3.9 was always mountable and writable from XP. I would set up a folder on a large disk on my MDD (10.3.9) for my wife to connect to with her work laptop running XP, to use as a backup area. Printing was also extremely easy from XP to a USB printer attached to 10.3.9.

FCE file sharing with FCP...?

I am considering purchasing FCE (and a macbook pro), but need to know a few things from users who have experience with it. First, is FCE totally compatible in terms of file sharing with FCP? I'm a beginer and need to learn editing. I just completed production on a film. My editor, who is also my filmmaking partner has FCP with all the bells and whistles. I live in California, he lives in Georgia. I'm hoping to supplement the editing process as we begin putting the film together from opposite sides of the country. Will I be able to do so with FCE, or will there be a problem opening certain filters and plugins from FCP?
Also I was wondering, if I do purchase FCE will I get an upgrade price break when and if I move up to FCP?
Any help and advice would be mucho appreciated. Thanks

Hi
Exactly as Tom writes.
But there are some tools in FCP that are that great that they could justify for
taking the full step.
Colorcorrecting - three ways (not to mention the extra program Color™)
MultiCamera editing - This to be able to edit as real life all Cameras at once
and You even don't need to be anything like precise - only adjust a second or two
afterwards.
A two Camera one hour documentation used to take about 10 to edit in FCE FOR ME
and I've done same in FCP in about 1 hour 20 minutes.
It was mind blowing.
But there is a price-tag I know it hurts and an upgrade program would benefit
the Apple brand (as they usually does)
Yours Bengt W

Macs and file sharing with Panasonic Lumix TS5

I'm trying to set up this camera to send my photos wirelessly to my IMAC but have hit a brick wall. The instructions with the camera state wifi sharing is supported with OS X 10.4 to 10.8, and I am running 10.75. The instructions are simple: find the file and enable sharing. I've completed all the steps, and my camera finds my Imac fine, but then cannot find the shared folder.
I researched this and found that for a different Panasonic camera, despite what panasonic says, file sharing did not work for mac only environments. (http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3360154). I have contacted panasonic, and am beginning to believe the this is true for my camera as well. I explained my problem and she first recommended to sign up for a lumix account. Then it went from here:
Kerry-Ann W.: In the setup it states where a lumix club account is required to send images to lumix club cloud
Dave: Ok, do I understand correctly that I needed a lumix club account to transfer images wirelessly to my IMAC?
Kerry-Ann W.: No I am not saying that. There is some sharing settings that needs to be set on your computer. We recommend that you contact apple so they can assist you in adjusting those settings.
Dave: Ok, I've signed up for a lumix club account. Will that help me transfer my images to the mac?
Kerry-Ann W.: We recommend that you contact apple so they can assist you in adjusting the sharing settings on your IMAC.
Dave: Kerry-Ann, please help me. I've done exactly what the Lumix manual tells me to do with my mac and it's not working. You are supposed to help when the manual doesn't suffice. Isn't there any tips you can give me to try and make this work?
Kerry-Ann W.: That is correct and based on checks done if it is not seeing your folders that means there needs to be some settings done on your computer for it to see the folders and if that is not done then you will not be able to see the folders.
Dave: Ok, so will you help me get those settings done on my computer?
Kerry-Ann W.: We recommend that you contact apple so they can assist you in adjusting those settings.
I have no idea what settings she is referring to, and she offered no guidance at all. Has anyone had any success file sharing with panasonic cameras? Or has anyone else concluded this is hopeless?
Thank you,
Dave

I have run through 2 of these cameras (1st one died-Epic Panasonic Fail) and I'm stoked I found the easy fix. No thanks to PaniCsonic.
Connect your camera via USB to your MacBook. Don't worry that it won't show.
Go to System Preferences under the 'Apple' icon (top left corner for any newbies)
Select the 'Sharing' tab/folder (should be yellow diamond with a person walking to YOUR left direction)
Select 'Internet Sharing'
A sub menu 'To computers using' will open up to the right with 3 boxes/options:
1) Firewire
2) Ethernet
3) Bluetooth PAN
Select Bluetooth PAN box so it check marks as selected.
Click the 'Internet Sharing' box.
Select 'Start' when the prompt asks if you are sure you want to turn on Internet sharing.
The 'Internet Sharing' box will then select.
Your camera will then prompt you to select a USB mode. Select 'PC'.
Wait through the access mode and VOILA, your photos will be uploaded straight to iPhoto as they should do in the first place.
I like the camera for it's simplistic functionality. I had a slick Olympus underwater that had the same features, but was more time in navigating through them all. I don't like PaniCsonic for their poor foresight in making this camera an austosetup feature for Mac users. My iPhone didn't like it much either.
Nonethless, there's the fix. For/from me.

File Sharing between iPad 2 and Mac

Hello -
I have an iPad 2 (recently updated to the OS 6) and a fully updated MacBook Pro. My iTunes is also the current 10.7 version.
On my PC, I am able to locate the file sharing portion of the apps section in iTunes. (I'm particularly interested in sharing the created projects from GarageBand for iPad to the GarageBand on my Mac.) However, for some reason, the File sharing doesn't appear in the apps section of iTunes on my Mac. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'd really appreciate it if someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.

No, I 100% agree with Kenneth.
File Sharing: Ticked
Windows Sharing: On
Folders I want to share from have been added in the box, eg Movies, TV etc.
Users: Myself - Read and Write. Everyone - Read Only
Share Files and Folders using SMB: Ticked
My name under 'Account' is also ticked
Note: I am the only user on this computer, and so I am administrator.
OK.... Now we've got the 'are you stupid' questions out of the way, hopefully someone can provide me a meaningful solution. Sorry if you can read the frustration in my words, i've searched a hundred forums all with 'solutions' that might as well be asking "is the computer switched on?"
So moving on. On the LG Blu-Ray player, under movies it does display the folders I want to share from, Movies, TV, etc, under DANNY-MAC-MINI. So far so good. However, once I try to enter a folder, it asks for an ID and Password. I've tried my login credentials for my Mac 10 times - it says incorrect, try again. What is going wrong here??? Does anyone know?
Thanks

Why has file sharing between iPad and iTunes stopped working?

After installing the new version of iTunes and Lion my iPad shared files no longer appear in the Shared Files window in the Apps tab. For instance I use Artrage and have imported many of my drawings using iTunes....but now this no longer works. I contacted Artrage and they say that this does not seem to be a problem with specific Apps because they are seeing similar complaints from other people with the same problem but with different Apps. I no longer have access to my Pages document either. Does any one have any tips on how to fix this? Anyone else having the same problem? Thanks.
So to clarify....I connect my iPad. Click my connected iPad tab on the left. Then click the Apps tab along the top. Then I scroll down and see the File Sharing section. I see 4 Apps that allow file sharing. I click Artrage to see files appear on the right hand side. No files are listed. (I have at least 30-50 drawings) I click Pages to access files. 2 files do appear....but not all files. On my iPad I have 3 folders each with more than 4 documents....plus 4 other documents that are not in folders.
Hope this makes sence.

I saw a similar post that had a solution posted. The idea was a corrupted iPad back up. So I deleted my iPad back up and created a new one. This did not work.
I was hoping it would be so easy.

How do i use file sharing with my microsoft pc and mac book?

I have a windows vista pc that my daughter uses and I have a macbook pro and we want to use file sharing for our itunes libararys. We connect to internet with my time capsule. I have both computers itunes file sharing turned on but I can't seem to be able to see them on the network. can someone give me some pointers on how to make this work. thanks

The best way I know is to sign up for iTunes Match. All your music is stored in the cloud and can be accessed by up to 10 devices.
