Hi Ramy, Try putting SMB:// at the start of your computer name that the shared drive is on,
The problem you may get here is that the mac wont write to a windows NTFS file system So unless your wifes windows computer is an xfat or fat32 file system you will only be able to read from the windows side to the mac But normally you will require a Samba connection that is the SMB:// to connect / work with the windows share. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ramy Moustafa Sent: Thursday, 5 October 2017 8:09 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Sharing a folder between my windows 7 and my mac Hi all: i need to share a folder between my windows and my mac. in windows 7, i made all steps, and i’m sure that it’s visible on the network, because i signed from my wife’s windows laptop, but on mac, i can not see the folder at all. I hit Control+k, i found my PC name, i hit connect, i didn’t set a password, so i wrote guest. but i failed to connect, so what’s wrong here? -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
