Share Files with Bonjour between XP and Leopard?

Can you share files between Mac OS Leopard and XP using Bonjour?
If so, how?
I have a Linksys router plugged into XP and a built in Airport card on the Mac. I can use the internet but I am having trouble sharing files.
Any help would be appreciated!

s/pdif seems to be for such situations. You could also try running some networked sound daemon, pulseaudio supposedly runs on windows as well, not sure what support phonon has for networked audio.

Share files & external HD between iMac and Macbook (wirelessly)?

I just bought a new iMac Bad-A computer to add to my rapidly growing arsenal of apple products. I'm having a little trouble figuring out how to share an external HD.
Here's how I have it set up:
iMac in office is connected directly to external HD via firewire.
Airport Extreme is my wireless router in the living room
Macbook is obviously mobile and makes its way to different rooms in the house
Here's what I'd like to accomplish:
Direct file sharing between the iMac to Macbook. I'd like to be able to access files from any location on either computer from the other one. I'd also like the external HD to show up on both the iMac and the Macbook.
Both computers are running the latest version of OS X
Thanks!

Then turn on file sharing in System Preferences on the iMac and the MB will be able to access the drive.
I have a HD connected to an Airport Extreme (APEx) and I have file sharing on my MB (administrator's MacBook) This is what I see in the Finder on my iMac

How can I share files in airdrop between mac and phone without having setting turned to "everyone"?

I'm trying to utlitise airdrop between my MBP and iPhone 5s. I have the same icloud account for both, but when I have airdrop set to "contacts only" on either device the other is not visible. I have to set either device that I am trying to send to as visible to Everyone for it to show up on the other.
I have myself in my contact book as well so I should technically come up as a contact I would think? I'd rather not have to have visibility set to "everyone" if I can help it.
Any advice?
Thanks

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,
SB

Can't share files with Macbbok Air and Windows XP PC

Despite several calls to apple support I am still unable to share files with the PC.The PC is wired to the router and the macbook is wireless.
I can see the shared files on my PC in the finder of the MAC but whan I click on the file it says that 'original item "shared file" cannot be found'.
or when connecting via go-connect to server-, the error message
' the volume "Shared file" cannot be mounted' appears, this is followed by a message 'sorry the operation could not be completewd because an unexpected error occurred (Eror code -6602)
I can also only connect as a guest via Finder and sometimes when trying to connect the error maessages do not appear but the computer seems to absorb a lot of CPU usage, get hot and freeze.
Any ideas please?
I have tried turning off firewalls on both computers and have spoken to support for the d link router who confirmed that the router doesnt block file sharing.

Actually, I just typed in smb://PCNAME without any folders, logged in as a guest (I don't have a password-enabled share setting in Windows 7), and my Mac kindly asked me which volume to mount. I chose Users, and it popped up in Finder. Fully browsable.

iCloud does not provide general file storage and sharing. You will need to find a third-party alternative - this page examines some options:

Can I share files, especially email, between 2 Macs via iCloud?

I have 2 Macs - an iMac for business at a fixed location and a Powerbook (which is much older) for traveling. I want to share files, especially email, between the 2 Macs. Can I do this using iCloud?

Some more info is probably necessary. My Powerbook is NOT using Lion. In fact, it can't because its processor is too old. Can I use iCloud with it?
Also I use Entourage (Microsoft Office) for Mail and that's where I really need to share data, emails, etc.

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 on iCloud between different apps?

Hi,
how do I share files on iCloud between different apps?
I would like to edit simple plain text files on my Mac and my iPad using different apps. They don't see the content of each other. How do I fix this?
example:
when I create a .txt files:
Byword on Mac syncs nicely with Byword on iOS.
Ulysses 3 on Mac syncs nicely with Daedalus Touch.
BUT, cross-sync is not possible.... :/
How can I change this? - I would like to work with Byword on my Mac and Daedalus on the go.
Thanks in advance!

Cross-sync only works if an app on the iDevice allows it. For example, some apps (editors) sync with Dropbox (icloud usually isn't the thing to use) but only in their own folders.
If you save a file from the mac to it's own folder, A, on dropbox and on the device you use a different app that uses its own folder, B, then you won't be able to reach folder A on the device.
One thing to look for in editors that support Dropbox (most do, on a device - clearly all do on a mac) is whether they access dropbox using the root folder. From there you can drop down to any subfolder and reach the files you want.

Using FTP to share files with 3 Windows computers - Not Working Anymore

My office is trying to share files with a number of computers, both Mac and PC. The files are housed on a Mac OS 10 version 10.6, and I've enabled both AFP and FTP sharing. The macs in the office connect just fine, but yesterday, after three weeks of working perfectly, the Windows machines stopped connecting to the Mac. They get a "The Connection with the server was reset" error. We don't use an FTP client - I just had the PCs connect to the Mac by typing ftp://address in their explorer window.
I've tried restarting all computers, disabling and re-enabling FTP sharing, and I've triple checked permissions, etc. Is there anything else I should be investigating? I'm trying to look into our firewall here, but since our computers are rentals and another company controls our internet access I'm not sure what I can do there. (I tried setting up workgroups, but said company won't give me administrative access over the PCs or access to the firewall, and there's no IT dept to speak of)
As I'm sure you can tell, I'm just a regular old office monkey who inherited the "IT" job with no IT experience, so I apologize if any part of this question is stupid.

I know just about nothing about this, but common dianostic practices include looking at the logs.
Either use Applications -> Utilities -> Console, which has a search function that might make this easier.
Or go looking around /var/log (which you can use Unix 'grep' to do your searching ). Then again, NOT ALL logs are in /var/log, and Console knows where more logs are located.
2 logs that might be a good starting point would be /var/log/messages and /var/log/secure

Unable to share files with Windows

I have followed the instructions on my iMac to a "T", but am unable to share files with the wireless laptop on my network. The ethernet-wired pc can see the iMac fine and does not have to use a password to view the shared files. I must be doing something wrong with passwords - can someone please help? Thanks!

G'day v3ofushere,
You may need to provide a little more information so that we can assist you!
What version of Windows are you running on the other machines? XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 8.1? EDIT: Scratch that - I just saw that it is a Windows 7 PC from the subject!!! (DOH!).
Are your Windows computers on a domain, or are they running as a WORKGROUP?
When you say that you can't connect to the network, does this mean that you are having trouble connecting to file shares?
What are you seeing when you attempt to connect? Any error messages? Or is it simply failing to accept the login credentials and shaking the dialog box at you?
Cheers,
Rodney

45 min long session of log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms

45 min long log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms
Encountering a rather unusual performance issue. Once every 4 hours I am seeing a 45 minute long log file sync wait event being reported using Spotlight on Oracle. For the first 30 minutes the event wait is for approx 5000 ms, followed by an increase to around 20000 ms for the next 15 min before rapidly dropping off and normal operation continues for the next 3 hours and 15 minutes before the cycle repeats itself. The issue appears to maintain it's schedule independently of restarting the database. Statspack reports do not show an increase in commits or executions or any new sql running during the time the issue is occuring. We have two production environments both running identicle applications with similar usage and we do not see the issue on the other system. I am leaning towards this being a hardware issue, but the 4 hour interval regardless of load on the database has me baffled. If it were a disk or controller cache issue one would expect to see the interval change with database load.
I cycle my redo logs and archive them just fine with log file switches every 15-20 minutes. Even during this unusally long and high session of log file sync waits I can see that the redo log files are still switching and are being archived.
The redo logs are on a RAID 10, we have 4 redo logs at 1 GB each.
I've run statspack reports on hourly intervals around this event:
Top 5 Wait Events
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total
Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time
log file sync 756,729 2,538,034 88.47
db file sequential read 208,851 153,276 5.34
log file parallel write 636,648 129,981 4.53
enqueue 810 21,423 .75
log file sequential read 65,540 14,480 .50
And here is a sample while not encountering the issue:
Top 5 Wait Events
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total
Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time

log file sequential read 98,310 18,848 5.15
db file scattered read 67,584 2,427 .66
Yes I know I am already tight on I/O for my redo even during normal operations yet, my redo and archiving works just fine for 3 hours and 15 minutes (11 to 15 log file switches). These normal switches result in a log file sync wait of about 5000 ms for about 45 seconds while the 1GB redo log is being written and then archived.
I welcome any and all feedback.

Lee,
log_buffer = 1048576 we use a standard of 1 MB for our buffer cache, we've not altered the setting. It is my understanding that Oracle typically recommends that you not exceed 1MB for the log_buffer, stating that a larger buffer normally does not increase performance.
I would agree that tuning the log_buffer parameter may be a place to consider; however, this issue last for ~45 minutes once every 4 hours regardless of database load. So for 3 hours and 15 minutes during both peak usage and low usage the buffer cache, redo log and archival processes run just fine.
A bit more information from statspack reports:

Secure the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system

Hi All,,
I would like to use to "secure" SSH on OS Level the file/data transfer between XI and any third-party system Run OS Command before processing and OS command After processing. right now my XI server installed on iSeries OS.
with ISeries we can't call the Unix commands hope we need to go for AS400 (CL) Programming. If we created the AS400 programm how i can call that in XI.
If any one have idea pls let me know weather it will work or not.
Thanks in adavance.
Venkat

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
I have red some blogs like /people/krishna.moorthyp/blog/2007/07/31/sftp-vs-ftps-in-sap-pi to call the Unix Shell script in XI.
But as i know in iSeries OS we can write the shell script we need to go for AS400 programe. If we go with AS400 how we need to call that programe and it will work or not i am not sure there i need some help please.
Thanks,
Venkat

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.
