[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1604014, member: 131855"] Unless I am seriously misunderstanding the number of Mac's involved this is[B] not[/B] true in this case. For basic file sharing between a few Macs a server, or server edition of the OS, is not needed. I've shared files between as many as three Macs without a server or server software. You can probably do more but I haven't tried it. In addition to knowing any error messages which happen something occurs to me: Think about any differences between the Mac you can log into and the one you can't. When you try to log into the Mac that fails are you logging into an account on that Mac? If you use the wrong account name or password the login won't work The account has to exist on the Mac you are logging into and the user name and password have to be correct. [/QUOTE]
