I am trying to help a friend connect all their computers together.
I am confused and frustrated, so I walked away for a moment.
User has four computers and two printers, one router in their home.
1. Dell Desktop, Windows XP SP3, connecting wirelessly, has HP Photosmart7600 attached.
2. H-P laptop, Windows 7, connecting wirelessly.
3. Dell XPS Desktop, running Windows XP SP3, wired to router, has HP Photosmart 7300 attached.
4. Dell laptop, Windows 7, connected wirelessly.
All computers have internet access.
All computers can print to all printers (wirelessly for all, except for each DT connected to local PTR).
All computers can see each other.
All computers belong to "WORKGROUP" workgroup, and have different names.
UNABLE to share PICTURES from either laptop to anybody else. (XP computers or the other Windows 7 laptop)
UNABLE to share DOCUMENTS from DELL desktop (#1) to anybody else.
Comes up with message that ..... user doesn't have permissions.....
Already verified that the correct folders (Pictures, documents) were shared.
What did I overlook?
