Hello,
I tried everything possible to make this work, BUT IT'S NOW PISSING ME OFF!!! I have videos and music i want to share throughout my network, mostly on my Mac. I could get into my mac through my PC, but when i go to Go>Connect to Server in Finder and put in smb://192.168.0.5(My desktop) it comes to a name and password prompt. I am 101% sure thats my username and password. I click ok and it says could not connect because of incorrect name or password. I have tried everything possible, and now, I am thinking of reformatting and instaling windows again. The music prt i figured out, i can share it through itunes, but what about all my other files? I have restarted and restarted and messed with the settings in the PC and turned off all firewalls, including windows, and i have deleted things, but something is blocking this connection. Any suggestions? I'm going on a trip soon and i am going to be in an airplane for 14 hours, so i need some videos, and movies. I know i can just burn them to a disc, but for the majority of the time, when im home, i need them to be networked so i can save space on my HDD.
thanks!
