Issue with sharing icon not in Finder (1st gen MB & newest MBP)

I've searched the forums and am not sure what to look for.
Problem: unable to find my friend's late model MBP (Leopard) in my finder. i own a first gen MB with the Snow Leopard upgrade.
1. i've checked the file sharing access on both computers and we have it checked to be able to access (read & write) to both our drop boxes.
2. i have no issues connecting to the network, we are the only 2 computers sharing a network through the Airport Express. (i had no problems with OS 10.4 Tiger)
3. i use to open the finder window to connect to his MBP to put files into his dropbox but am now unable to find his computer in my shared section of my finder window. i went to "networks" to look also but found 0 items also.
i tried going to the terminal window in utilities and did the CMD + SHIFT + K but didn't see anything here either.
He is able to see me in his shared section of his finder and was able to access my drop box with no problems.
What am i doing wrong? how can i access his MBP computer or any other computer (PC based) if i am unable to connect or see anything in my finder side tab?
i read i can manually do it but am unsure how to obtain the other person's IP. or is there a simpler method to do this?
Thanks for everyone's help.

How would i find the other computer's IP address? Sorry I'm not familiar with how to look for that. thanks for the info i appreciate the help.
Hopefully Apple comes through with an update that fixes all the bugs in Snow Leopard.

  • Issues with embedded report not recursively finding data in a sub folder

    Hi:
    Am stuck.  Have an InfoPath form that is published to a SharePoint forms library.  The users put completed forms in sub folders in this library: example
    Library: my forms
                   folder1
                   folder2
    Used a hyper link inside of the InfoPath form and the report will run when the form is in the root of the library but does NOT search folders beneath the root.
    Have not been able to find a working example.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thank you
    Chuck

  • I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

    I am having issues with Sidebar files not appearing from within InDesign CS5.5. They show up fine from other Adobe applications. Using OS10.6.8.

    I would first of all trash the preference file for InDesign, make sure the application is closed then find the prefs in
    /Users/USER NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign and just throw the entire folder away, it will generate a new one after you launch InDesign again.
    Now launch InDesign and see if the problems are resolved.
    If not I would repair your permissions on your hard drive wih disk utility, and if that fails then di-install InDesign and re-install that single application.
    Let me know if any of these suggestions work for you
    I will be checking my email although you might have to wait for a response as I will be taking a microlight flight over the Victoria Falls tomorrow. Yay can hardly wait.

  • Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?

    Has anyone had issues with their itunes not coming up?  I keep getting error message 13014.  I just bought a new classic ipod and am not sure if this is the problem.

    Hi
    Your new iPod has certain operating system requirements. Does your iMac meet those requirements?
    http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html
    3rd Column on the right hand side, about a 3rd of the way down. To find out which version of iTunes you have, launch it and select "About iTunes" from the iTunes menu.

    Hi!
    What kind of RFC do you use? If you use synchronous RFC the caller waits for the answer/result of the called function. In normal cases this should solve your issue.

    Hello surig84,
    Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your iPad.  I recommend reviewing the following article specifically the section titled "Authorize using the correct account name."

  • Issues with photos/videos not uploading in chronological order..

    I have been having issues with Adobe Bridge not uploading my photo/video files (from a CF card) in chronological order. When uploading I select to rename the files by shot date + 01.. etc. For photos the first image then becomes the last image after uploading, and for video files everything is out of order. Not sure why as the only other thing I have selected to add is copyright info. Also having issues with Bridge not converting raw files to DNG (which has led me to use Adobe DNG Converter - not terrible, but hopefully there is a reason?). I think it is a problem with Bridge, as photos uploaded to my website - something completely non-Adobe related are also then thrown out of order.. so it seems to be an issue with files that have come through Bridge at some point. Any advice is much appreciated.

    I just noticed that iTunes is now accepting 'some' videos. They are all the same file type (mp4), but iTunes is just randomly choosing which videos it wants add to the Library & not.
    I'm still not getting any results when it comes to the Photos.
    ... and one last thing ... only random songs are displaying the album art on the iPod. Yhey ALL appear in iTunes. If i restore my iPod & re-load everything, some of the songs that DID have artwork appearing on the screen now don't.
    This is really messed up! Wonder if the eventual Vista-compatible iTunes will fix this problem ...

    Anyone have an issue withe airplay button not being available?

    Since the last pair of updates, my game camera won't pan around in any adventure level, leaving many sub levels off screen.  This is happening in all community adventure levels as well as my own on my moon.  Also can't seem to decorate my adventure levels without experiencing major glitches, especially with changing the materials.  The updates fixed a lot of stuff, but it seems like they trashed some things too.

  • Hi! So I am using a MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and I am having some trouble issues with sharing documents on Google.

    I am part of a 2 person group, who's entering a documentary for the NHD competiton. If you don't know what that is here's a link: http://www.nhd.org. Anyway, that doesn't really matter. What does matter, is that my partner and I, we're using Final Cut Pro X to make the documentary. I downloaded the Final Cut Pro X trial on my MacBook Pro so I could work on our documentary at home. My partner Cecilia, wanted to work on it as well, but using Windows Media Player or something like that. My family uses a lot more Apple than windows. So I come home, work a little on our documentary, go under file ---> share ------> masterfile---> settings-----> Video Codec -----> H.264. A couple seconds/ miniutes (it didn't take very long) later, I see our documentary as a Quick Time file pop up under my documents. I then log into gmail. i click compose, type in my partners e-mail, and then click the little paper clip to attach my new quick time file. Considering that it's 11 minutes long and is filled with media and audio, It's no suprise when I see that it exceeds the limit of ...gigabytes i think. So i send it to her using google drive. However, a couple minutes later, my partner says that she can see the file, but can't seem to download it. I double-check and make sure that I, as the owner, allowed her to edit the file. Then I check to see if i accidently clicked: "Prevent viewer from downloading" which I hadn't. Then i, myself, click on the file and click download and it works fine for me, but apparently doesn't work at all for her windows computer. This means that there's somethig wrong with her computer, or I did something wrong while sharing the file. Any ideas as to why the whole downloading process worked on my Apple Laptop and not her Windows Computer?

  • Anyone have issues with "touch screen" not responding?

    Does anyone find that the touch screen doesn't respond? I have huge issues with this style.
    Touching and swiping on a screen that is 1.5 inches isn't fun. I need shade to read the screen (bad for snow), I need to go thru so much just to get to a song, a podcast, whatever that was playing before I HAD to turn off nana. I need to turn off nano each time.
    1. Turn on by holding button like forever.
    2. swipe, swipe, swipe, swipe to get to songs or podcast. Select, select, touch selcet, not selecting, touch, touch touch.
    3. Select 'songs; selevet something else to get to a screen that says shuffle.
    4. Select, select, touch, touch, use index finger, thumb, touch, breath on finger, touch again.
    5. After one song plays after selecting "shuffle", it repeats, repeats,
    6. Take ipod out of pocket, stand in shade, hit the snooze whatever button, to activate screen, Is screen activitated? yes? But it blinked off to quick to make selectioon of touch proof screen.
    7. Walk inside to touch screen, to see screen. Hit button, wait for long time for this to start again (much like laptop starting).
    8. Swipe to get to menu with songs, swipe, swipe, swipe swipe.
    9. Select music: albums, artist songs. By selecting I mean touch touch touch, touch, use thumb, touch. for each selection
    10. Are you sure this is an Apple product?
    Can I return this POS and wait for someone to go back to what worked best??

    Oh, and yes I have restored to factory settings. Then resynch.
    I have done the soft reset or whatever it's called on this one.
    It is updated.
