  • File Sharing with Airport and 2 MacBook Pros

    I'm stumped on file sharing. When I turn file sharing on in MacBook Pro #1 preferences and type in the afp address on MacBook Pro #2, I see several folders with a red check next to them. When I click on them it says I don't have permission. Is there a way, using the afp address of MacBook Pro #1, to log onto using MacBook Pro #2 and view the contents and files of the MacBook Pro #1 hard drive? I've tried everything, but I'm sure I'm missing something simple!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Under "Shared" in the navigation pane on the left of your Finder window, click on the computer you're trying to access.
    Now on the gray bar right above the folders, it should say "Connected as:" (see picture)
    Who does it say you are connected as?

  • File sharing between Leopard and Snow Leopard

    I have a G5 and a Powerbook running the latest version of Leopard and they are both on the same network as a Mac Mini and Macbook both running Snow Leopard. The computers on Snow Leopard have no problem accessing the shared folder on the computers running Leopard but the opposite has not worked. I can't access either the mini or the macbooks shared folder from either my G5 or Powerbook. I set the firewall on all computers to allow all incoming connections to resolve this but have not been successful. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?

    I couldn't find anything in the system log at all and I tried the appfirewall.log and it isn't there. It could be because the firewall is turned off therefore it isn't logging anything.
    I decided to try the system log on the G5 with Leopard running instead and got the following message pop up in the Console immediately after a failed connect:
    Oct 8 00:24:15 daniel-kennedys-power-mac-g5 /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder[139]: SharePointBrowser::handleOpenCallBack returned 22
    Hope this is useful

  • File sharing with iMAC and OS 9.1 Power PC back-to-back not working

    Here's the setup. Any ideas on why it's not working?
    Internet ports connected with crossover cable.
    OS 9.1: File sharing ON, Program linking OFF, Document file selected for sharing
    OS 10.4.8: Personal file sharing ON, Built in Ethernet both computers, GO connect to server-Power PC IP address entered.
    Response after a timeout: "Connection failed. Check server name or IP address".
    17 iMAC Intel core duo   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Still not working. Here’s what I tried.
    OS 9.1: Configured TCP/IP in Control Panel for connection via Ethernet slot. Noted IP address from last DHCP connection. Turned on File Sharing in Control Panel. Selected file for sharing. In Chooser clicked Appleshare icon and Server IP Address button. (Note: Appletalk button active). Entered iMAC IP address in Server Address screen and clicked Connect.
    No connection made.
    Then opened Appletalk in Control Panel and noted it is connected via same Ethernet slot as TCP/IP. Therefore returned to Chooser, clicked Appleshare icon and clicked Appletalk inactive button. Upon turning File Sharing on in Control Panel, get warning message, “Appletalk must be turned on to use file sharing.”
    As before, iMAC connect to OS 9.1 didn’t work either.
    Artnum=302784 indicates Appletalk cannot be used, TCP/IP must. Apparently there is no way to disable Appletalk in OS 9.1 maching when file sharing.
    It appears I’ve hit a dead end in trying to get operational file sharing between OS 10.8.4 and OS 9.1 machines.
    Thanks for your help, BDAqua

  • File sharing with Leopard through dial up modem on Performa 6400

    There are some really important files that i need to get off my Macintosh Performa 6400 (running 8.6) but the only connection that my iMac G5 (running 10.5.4) and the performa share is the dial up modem. I can't get an internet connection on the performa since we have broadband and it does not have an ethernet port, so that's out of the question. Some of the files are too big to fit on a floppy and my iMac doesn't have a floppy drive anyways.
    I turned on file sharing on both computers, but they don't see each other being as they're connected through the dial up modems. After having searched up and down Google with no answer, my question is: is there anyway i can file share through the dial up modem using the aforementioned configuration?
    Since I'll only need to do this once, I don't want to have go out and buy something in order to get this to work.
    Thank you for any and all help you guys may provide.

    I realise that you didn't, originally, intend to spend anything but, if you have a spare PCI slot left in your 6400. I wonder if maybe installing a Keyspan USB PCI card would help. That way the 6400 could communicate direct with the G5 and save the hassle of removing its HD.
    http://www.allmacshop.co.uk/proddetail/19184/KeyspanUSB_PCI_Card_2-Port_Mac_Win__UPCI-2/
    The manufacturer's part number is UPCI-2.
    I installed one of these in my PowerMac 6500/300. Turned to be one of my better decisions as I was then able then to import photos direct from my digital camera and all sorts.
    Or there's this which is better still-
    http://www.macheaven.co.uk/?page=proddetail&prod=1343
    Check compatibility with your 6400 though as I don't have one of these so I don't know if it works or not. Don't see why it shouldn't though.

  • File Sharing with XP and Vista

    Hi, I have an WRT54G wireless G router. I have a windows XP computer and a Windows Vista laptop that I would like to enable file sharing on. I am having a lot of problems doing so. Can someone please give me instructions on how to do so? Thanks, Alex

    I have the exact same problem, XP desktop connected to WRT54G (wired) and a Vista laptop connect wirelessly.  Every thing works in that the internet connections of both machines work.  I cannot, however, see the two machines in the network neighborhood of the XP desktop.
    Before I installed the WRT54G, I had both machines connected to a wired router I previously used.  Networking and file sharing worked fine in this configuration.  Its only when I went to the WRT54G that I lost it.
    I'm sure this is a simple fix, but I can't fix it!

  • File sharing with PC and Diskaid: don't see files on iphone

    i downloaded FileApp and Diskaid,  But, the files don't transfer to my phone,Help!

    Those programs don't install to your phone.  They install to your computer so you can manage files on your iphone using your PC.
    Run the program, connect phone to PC using sync / dock cable and the phone should appear in the programs window on your PC so you can then move files on to and off of your phone.
    Be very careful that you don't delete or damage system files.  You will end up having to restore your phone when it stops working if you do.

  • Wired (Ethernet) Mac Mini file sharing with wireless Windows 7 PC

    Hi Guys,
    I'm new to the Mac experience having just bought a Mac Mini so be gentle please. I have the Mini connected to my router & internet the via Cat5 Ethernet cable. I also have a Dell Notebook running Windows 7 connecting wirelessly to that router. How do I get these 2 power-houses of the home computer industry to share files?

    Well with 10.6 and windows file sharing follow these steps:
    1. First in windows 7 go to Control Panel. Then in the File sharing panel don't do a Home Group because this is for Windows 7 networks ONLY!. Use the Advanced file sharing to share files.
    2. While still on Windows 7 go to Control Panel-System and get the workgroup name or change it to you want. Also while still in 7 click on the start button in the search box type: cmd . The command line will come up and on the first line type: ipconfig /all . Then write down the Windows 7 IP address (you will need to know this info).
    3. Now in 10.6.x open System Preferences->Network pane, Advanced button. In the drop-down click on the WINS tab and put in the name of the Workgroup name and at the bottom of the pane hit the + button and add the IP address of the Windows 7 machine.
    4. Now click on OS X desktop and click on the Go menu name. In the drop-down select "Connect to Server" . When the panel opens up put in your Windows 7 IP address and connect. The keyboard shortcut for the Connect to Server is the Command key+k. Then log in the Windows 7 with the Windows 7 username and password.
    Any questions?
    One more thing: read the how to File Sharing: Snow Leopard And Windows 7.

  • File Sharing with Lion 10.9.1

    We have two iMacs and cannot create shared folders with full permissions between them. Both have of us administration privileges with the other, file sharing is on and both operators are selected as well as a special group with both our names in it. For example, any folder I create on the other computer does not allow the other user to make changes without my going to that computer and changing the permissions using a Get Info window. I have tried the use of SMB sharing only as some have suggested without success. What can we do to solve this problem?

    Connect to the server as the user who owns the sharepoint.

  • Any issues with file sharing between Windows and latest Mac client?

    We're running Lync 2013. My Windows client is 15.0.4551.1005. Mac client is version 14.0.8.
    I open a conversation with a coworker on his Mac. I then try to share a png file. He clicks accept but then my client says the attempt timed out, and his client says that I canceled the file transfer. The coworker then boots the Mac into Windows and we try
    again, and the file share works fine. When I jump on my Mac, I can send files to his Mac without issue. When he tries to send from his Mac to my PC it fails, but when he tries to send from Windows on his Mac to my PC, it works.
    I can't find anything specific in the logs that would indicate a firewall issue. Is there a bug with file sharing between the Mac and PC clients?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    No, There isn't a bug with file sharing between Mac and Pc client.
