Hi everyone, I'm trying to access files on my Win7 home premium desktop, through my macbook pro. But i'm having trouble.
I tried using the remote desktop connection that came with my 'ms office suite' but i think i need a higher level of win7 to use that.
i tried setting up a connect through the file sharing tab in the mac settings, then 'windows sharing' then the SMB option. but no luck.
all my file sharing options on the windows comp are working. i use that with another laptop (also win7).
finally, i have a printer on that desktop that i want working with my mac. but i'm guessing that must be easy once the connection is made.
thanks in advance. i'm a mac newbie, but i'm pretty proficient at windows. just can't seem to get this to work!
