Ok. So, you are leaving the user name and password fields blank? If this is the
case, then the Windows machine you are connecting to needs to have the guest
account enabled with no password. Is this the case?

Sure!
First, I don't have any passwords.
Let me give you an exact example.
The machine I want to connect to is Skhye (that is the correct spelling)
So, I type //Skhye/skhyering (skhyering being the folder on the machine I
want to connect to).
That is the main fold on the Skhye machine where the music is.
I will paste below how it looks when I connect using a Windows machine.
\\Skhye\skhyering
I have understood that Linux likes the forward slashes instead.
Thanks.

Rich:
Can you give me an example of what your typing when attempting to connect
manually? (I don't need the password, of course.)

When I use the browse function, I see first, my workgroup name, and if I
press right arrow, I see the name of one of the three machines that are on
our network. When I attempt to connect to this computer, I receive an error
message that mentions mounting, NetBIOS, and many many numbers. If, on the
other hand, I attempt to add network folders manually, I receive an entirely
different error. This error says that connection has timed out (and gives
an imp address) and it then says that a process already in progress and the
number 19,192. I've given up. This feature is just not happening.
