How do I share files with a pc over network?

I connected my iMac to my home network but I can't see the PC's I have in the network. How can I fix?

Be sure to enable file sharing on each of the PCs that you want to access from the iMac.

  • How should i share file with other devices such as nokia,blackberry and etc using bluetooth

    I want to share  files between other deivce such as nokia but couldnt, could u help me tell how can i share files with other devices???

    @AKRBTN: Thanks for the reply and info.
    That is a solution, but it really isn't viable.
    It is sad that apple refuses to support this.
    A simple example: Sitting somewhere with no signal and you want to share a file (photo) with your colleague or friend, who happens to be right next to you.
    Or even if there is signal and you don't want to be paying fees or data charges.
    Or you may be in a rehearsal studio and need to share that very important file and have no time to go outside and get signal and try to send the file, which then everyone else has to go outside and catch the signal and pay fees.
    Anyway, I see that this is a dead end with apple, so I guess I will be back to carrying 2 phones around again.
    Peace,

  • How can ipad share files with windows pc?

    Can the iPad be connected to a Windows 7 PC and used to share files between Word and Pages? 

    Word files can be opened and edited in Pages on the iPad and you can send the files to the iPad via email, by using a service like DropBox or by using iOS file sharing. This will explain how to use file sharing.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4094
    You might want to be aware of the fact that some editing features will be lost from the Word files when you open them Pages - fonts will be limited - some formatting issues may arise - Pages on the iPad just doesn't work like Word on a computer.

  • How do I share files with other accounts on mac

    Under Lion public folders are hidden?  I turned on sharing, but can't see any public folders so I can share files between accounts on the same computer.  Any ideas.

    Simplest way is probably to put copies into the Users/Shared folder.

    There are other services, too - Sendspace for one, and an internet search should provide more.

    If you mean just moving files between a Mac and a PC with XP on it, get a USB flash drive, format it FAT32 (they usually come that way) and copy the files to that drive.

  • How do I share files uploaded into the Creative Cloud with other creative cloud members?

    How do I share files uploaded into the Creative Cloud with other creative cloud members?

    Should be easy.  Try this...
    In Thumbnails view, click the little triangle (pointing downward) in the lower-right corner of the asset you want to share.
    In the blue icon bar that appears, click the Share icon (the third icon from the left, just right of the trash icon). The Share dialog should pop up.
    In the Share dialog, enter the email address of the person with whom you want to share the asset, then click the Send Email button - they'll receive an email with a link to your asset. OR
    You can also copy a link to the asset and then paste that into your own email client if you prefer.  To do that, click the Link icon (looks like a "chain", and is to the right of the email "envelope" icon) - then click the Copy Link button.
    Note that the Share options won't be available if your asset is set to "Private" - you can control whether an asset can be viewed (or downloaded) by others by clicking the Public/Private control (green or red "lock" icon).
    You can also access the same Share controls if you click on the file to see it one-up (you can do this from either Thumbnails view or List view); click the Share icon near the upper right corner of the browser window (to the right of the asset name).
    Hope that helps.

  • How do I share files from Windows Vista to a Mac with Lion OSX?

    How do I share files from Windows Vista to a Mac with Lion OSX?  I'm having SO much trouble with this!  Any help would be appreciated!!!

    In a finder window, under 'shared' you should be able to see the windows computer name, click on it and connect to it. I am assuming here you have sharing turned on and permissions granted on the windows computer.
    Will add a note though, I have frequently accessed files from a PC on the LAN using XP, not vista.

  • I have imported my pictures into aperture, how do I export into jpeg files so i can share files with friends who dont use aperture ?

    I have imported my pictures into aperture, how do I export into jpeg files so i can share files with friends who dont use aperture ?

    If you want the same export settings on some or all of the images you can select all that have the same export requirements and export them as a group.
    If all the images have the same requirements then you can select them all and run the export command.

  • Still not sure how to share files with my friend's Windows PC?

    I went through all the help pages concerning this, but it doesn't seem to help any. On our house internet connection, both our computers use the same IP address. I tried connecting directly to his computer using ethernet cable, but his computer never showed up. Our workgroup name should be the same, his is WORKGROUP but I'm not sure how to officially make mine that. I went to Network in System Preferences and clicked on Advanced... then went to the WINS tab and it has workgroup in the workgroup box, does this mean my computer is using that workgroup name? I'm at a loss and would like to share files with my friend's computer.

    Do you have a router?
    If not then sharing files will not be easy.

    The add the Mac to the WORKGROUP
    Applications > Utilities > Directory Access
    Select SMB/CIFS
    Click Configure
    Change Workgroup to match the Windows Workgroup.
