File and app sharing with friends can I do this

Can I share files and apps with a friend that isn't synced to my computer

You can't share any iTunes content that way, but photos, etc., look at this:

Only iPhone to iPhone though.

File and print sharing with wrt54g, ver. 6

computers connected to my wrt54g, ver. 6, router (firmware ver 1.01.1) cannot see each other's shared files although they can all share the same internet connection just fine. file and print sharing has been set up on each (they were connected to a wired router before i purchased the wrt54g and they saw each other and shared files, no problem). how can i share files through this router? what went wrong?

Are you running software firewalls on any computer? Has the LAN IP network changed (e.g. it was 192.168.0.* before and now 192.168.1.*)?

File and printer sharing with new router WRT100

I have a desktop PC running XP media center home edition hardwired to the router and a wireless laptop running Vista basic. About a year ago I was able to set up a wireless home network. I was thrilled to find out I could share files and a printer between the 2 PC's. Everything was working well until last week when my router died. I replaced the router with WRT100 and both PC's are back online but I lost file sharing. I am NOT technical and know little about PC's. I just stumble along. I spent hours trying to figure out the problem. I changed no seetings on my computers except what was needed to install the new router. What I do know is that the network wizard is telling me the network is set up but when I go into a folder I want to share there is no tab that says "share file on the network". (when this tab was there I checked it and the under the folder an icon would appear to show the folder was shared on the network between the 2 computers).
I can share the files within the PC with other users but not on the network with my other computer. I checked all the settings and cannot find a problem. I tried to ping the computer but got an error. Stuff was sent but not received, whatever that means???
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks....

If you are running any firewall, try disabling that. Make sure all computer's are set to same workgroup. Also turn on built on firewall on vista, and xp. Turn defender off on vista. Then try to ping and check for replys.

File and Printer Sharing with Bonjour and Rendevouz

have a new IMac Intel Core with Tiger and a Power PC G4.
Using wireless router at the G4, I want to share files and
a printer which is connected to the G4. Have tried the help
and the IMac Intel Core recognizes the printer, but when I print, it shows connecting to printer, but then says no job printing.
Any suggestions?

Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

Cleaned files and apps with "app cleaner" and now MacBook Air turns off during start up. What happens? What can I do? Please help

The "app cleaner" managed to do bad things to the file system so that it is unable to boot any longer.
This is the primary reason I always recommend that any of those so called "cleanup" apps never be used. They do more harm then good.
Try a safe boot by holding down the shifgr key when you hear the boot chime. Maybe that can fix the damage.
Let us know what happens.

Does simple file and folder sharing on an iMac work with OSX Server?

Hi There
I wonder if I should install OSX Server on an iMac wher several users work on the same files and folders.
My question - before I do something I might regret:
Does simple file and folder sharing on an iMac within several users really work with the help of OSX Server?
All I want to be able to do:
Admin creates a new folder1 and gives it read- and write access for user1 and user2.
User1 creates a subfolder1 in folder1, and a document1 in subfolder1.
User2 edits document1. Later Admin edits document1.
All these simple editing of files and folders (and subfolders) within a main folder should be possible. This is not possible now.
Is everything clear? I'm not a network specialist or something, I just want to give some co-workers access to some data on my computer without problems.

So what you need are recursive permissions.
I suggest you create a group and add user1 and user2 to that group. You can name that group whatever you want, but for now i will call it FSUsers
Execute this in terminal. Replace FSUsers with your new group
sudo chmod -R +a "FSUsers allow list,add_file,search,add_subdirectory,delete_child,readattr,writeattr,readextat tr,writeextattr,readsecurity,file_inherit,directory_inherit" /Users/Shared/*
Replace /Users/Shared with the location of your shared folder. Make sure you keep the /* at the end (this allows all subfolders and files to get the same permissions.
If you need to add people to the share just add them to the FSUsers group, the FSUsers group should should also be allowed in the sharing preferences.

Problem with file and printer sharing

I just installed a Linksys WRT54G to replace a D-Link wireless router and cannot reestablish my file and printer sharing since replacing the router. I had file and printer sharing working fine before installing the WRT54G. All of the computers are running either XP Pro or 2000 Pro. I have two printers attached to one of my computers that I was previously sharing with all of the other computers on our home network. One is attached via a parallel port, the other via a USB port.
Here's what I've tried so far without success.
1. The IP of the WRT54G is 192.168.1.1, and the IP's it assigns to my LAN computers begin 192.168.1.XXX. The old IP of the D-Link was 192.168.0.1 and its LAN IPs were 192.168.0.XXX, so I've gone into my firewall and changed the settings for the range of trusted computers to correspond to the WRT54G's IP addresses.
2. I've tried uninstalling the printers and reinstalling them, including reinitializing printer sharing.
3. When I try to use the Windows "Add printer" wizard to add a networked printer, it can see the computer that has the printers attached, but it does not see the printers.
4. I haven't fooled around with the file sharing settings, but they've all be lost too, so I suspect there is a common problem for both printer and file sharing.
Any suggestions would be most welcome. I don't know what would be different about the WRT54G that would cause this problem.

Try this to Enable File and Printer Sharing...Turn Off the Router Firewall...Make sure the Windows Firewall is also Off...

File and Printer Sharing Problem with WRT54G

I am currently having problems sharing files over my network. My setup consists of:
3 laptops (wireless)
1 desktop (wired)
WRT54G V6.0 router with firmware version 1.00.9.
All of the computers have File and Printer Sharing enabled, unique names, and are on the same workgroup. However none of the computers can see one another. When I try to view workgroup computers for my network places, the explorer window stops responding for about 30 sec. and then spits out a dialog with the error:
"Workgroup is not accessable. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions.
The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available."
I think that this problem has something to do with the router, as I have been successfuly sharing files and a printer with these settings using a microsoft 802.11b router for over a year. After purchasing the linksys and swapping it out with my old router, filesharing no longer functions.
I have spent a little time browsing the forums and have seen other posts from people with simmiler problems, but was unable to find any solutions.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I'm having the same problems as you are, I have 2 computers on wired the other wireless the router is in between and I can't access from either side, although I can ping and remote connect but just cannot share files across the network. I have looked all over the forums too and there saying to ditch linksys and do something else.
Its not you thats caused this it is the firmware and the router that have the problems.
My Specs:
WRT-54G
v5.0
That new firmware update 1.00.9 just isn't working right. I might downgrade my fireware to fix this problem.

BEFW11S4 with Westell/Bellsouth DSL, and wanting file and print sharing

I have configured the BEFW11S4 to share the DSL connection with Ethernet to home PC, and wireless to laptop.
How can I configure this to also allow the laptop to connect to the home PC for file and printer sharing?
Sorry if the is discussed elsewhere, im noob here and couldnt find anything applicable.
Thanks!
J

Check IP on each PC: For example:
PC1: 192.168.1.100
PC2: 192.168.1.101
Ping 192.168.1.101 from PC 1 and ping 192.168.1.100 from PC2... see which replies...
If both give out positive replies... then that is not a router issue but PC issues. Might be firewalls.

Try a hard reset:- hold the home button AND the power switch - ignore the red "Slide to power off" and wait ubntil the iPhone powers down, and then restarts - at the Apple logo, release all the buttons and see if your contacts reappear.

File and iTunes sharing doesn't work

Hello,
I have am trying to share files and an iTunes library from my Macbook Pro (Early 2008 model.) Since upgrading to Mac OS X Mountain Lion, sharing of all kinds has been acting strange. In other words, file and iTunes sharing from my computer can't be seen by other computers, but the reverse is not true.
-- 1. iPhone remote app can't see my library:
         While I can pair my iPhone with my iTunes library (iTunes 11) in the remote application, the Remote app simply says "Looking for..." without no name given for the library (on the remote app, the library shows up as a deactivated itunes logo with no name,) and then "Couldn't find ..." i.e., it fails to find the library.
-- 2. iTunes library can't be seen on other macs:
          I activated home sharing on my mac and another mac (Macbook Air 2011 with Mountain Lion and iTunes 11), I also set my iTunes preferences to "Share music over local network."     While I can see the Air's library on the MBP, I can't see the MBP's library on the Air.
-- 3. Shared folders can't be seen on other macs:
          I can see shared folders from the Air on my MBP. But to connect to shared folders on the MBP from the Air, I must enter the exact address, since browsing for my MBP on the network shows nothing.
I have confirmed that TCP port 3689 is open on the MBP.   Firewall is off. The local network in question is my cable modem connection (no router) which I am sharing from my MBP by WiFi . I am running OS X 10.8.2, iTunes 11.0.1.
I would appreciate any help anyone could give.
Thanks

And you are quite persistent, Menu Boy, in offering pernickety and pointless prattle, in response to a "support page" on iPad's buggy Pages App.
Let's summarise, for those reviewing this threadless thread for app support..
Mobile pages works reliably for simple docs, especially creating letters and Menus for Microsoft's Kindy canteen (even on special days with nice big pictures).
When importing more complex docs and/or working with larger creations, it is prone to randomly corrupting files upon re-opening, along similar lines as Word (running on a PC).
So, Menu Boy, do they let you sneak into classes every now and then? What is the secret to their training? "Say after me, if any I.T. product works just some of the time, that's a job well done, and if something randomly stops working, we call that the user's fault... And if they complain, we call them names."
